KNIA/KRLS held a candidate forum Thursday night in Pella for city council and mayoral candidates. A variety of issues were discussed as candidates laid out their plans for the future. On the topic of debt reduction, no candidate saw a definitive way to completely eliminate the city’s debt. The four council candidates and both mayoral candidates saw jobs as the way to keep young people in Pella and attract new ones.
