Heritage Oak Cliff and Wax Space are hosting an open candidate forum to learn more about the candidates running for Dallas City Council in District 1 and their stands on various issues facing the district and Dallas.
The forum will be held March 5 at 6 p.m. These are the candidates running for District 1:
- Jason Vanhof: Small-business owner, first-time candidate.
- Chad West (incumbent): First elected in 2019 and seeking a fourth term.
- Katrina Whatley: Realtor, first-time candidate.
Emma Ruby of the Dallas Observer will be the moderator. Each candidate will present their platform and Ruby will ask questions on a variety of issues. Audience questions will be taken at the end.
If you have any questions, please email info@heritageoakcliff.org.
The last day to register to vote is April 3, and early voting runs from April 22-29 for the May 3 election.
If any of the 14 City Council races end with no candidate receiving more than 50% of the vote, the top two vote-getters will move to a runoff election on June 7. The new City Council is scheduled to be sworn in June 16.
