There are two seats open on Town Council — Faye Prichard is seeking another term, on a ticket with James Foley who is campaigning for the seat being vacated by Billy Martin. Lucinda Jones is a write-in candidate. Click on a thumbnail to watch all three respond to a question collected from the audience, or watch sequentially for the entire event.
