Meet the Candidates event
Hi Neighbours
The Nelson Mail and the Nelson Tasman Chamber of Commerce are co-hosting a Meet the Candidates evening for the Richmond Ward and Mayoral candidates for the upcoming local body elections.
The event is at the Richmond Town Hall on Wednesday, September 11 from 6.30pm-8pm. Each candidate will be invited to speak for two minutes and then there will be some questions collated in advance from members of the public.
If you would like to ask a question, please email mailbox@nelsonmail.co.nz with Candidate Question in the subject line or reply to this post. Please bear in mind we may not have time to ask all questions but we will accommodate as many as we can.
See you there!
