Matter: For— While acknowledging the proposed streets program will be “a huge amount of money” and it would have been cheaper to redo the streets years ago, “that doesn't change the fact that something needs to be done now.”
Vance: For — “I think if we are going to live here, we need to take care of it.”
On adopting a city manager form of government:
Matter: Unsure — “The city manager idea I really like, but I am not so sure we can afford it.”
Vance: Unsure — “I’d have to know what the advantages are of having a city manager versus having a mayor. That’s something I guess I have to look into.”
On reforming ordinances to allow farm animals within city limits:
Matter: Against — “I am not adamantly against it, but I don’t think it’s going to be supported too well.”
Vance: Against — “I think we live close enough to rural areas that if you wanted to have those things the opportunity is there. I don’t believe they belong in the city.”
