Our final forum
Embarcadero Media Foundation’s East Bay Division is moderating its seventh and final Tri-Valley candidate forum of the season this Sunday afternoon in Danville.
Participating are all four candidates for the three at-large seats on the Danville Town Council: incumbents Newell Arnerich and Renee Morgan and newcomers Mark Belotz and Julia Gillette.
The event is set for 4-5:30 p.m. Sunday (Oct. 6). Due to unforeseen circumstances, the format has changed to online-only. There will be no in-person meeting anymore.
