Candidates' economic development platforms

This post will be followed with a series of candidates' statements on their economic development platforms.

All mayoral and council candidates were asked prior to the past weekend via email to provide a written statement on economic development issues for SB Now.

The only candidate who has yet to provide any statement was 1st Ward incumbent Esther Estrada. Mayoral candidate Rick Avila provided a copy of a campaign flier. All other candidates sent e-mailed responses.
