The Sun on Dec. 16 emailed the following four questions to the runoff candidates for City Council seats in District Three and District Five. The candidates have a deadline of 5 p.m., Monday, Dec. 19. The word limit is 400 words per answer.
• What specifically would you do to improve Seal Beach? (A reader suggested this question.)
• What specific thing would you do (or advocate) to improve transparency in city government?
• Seal Beach needs to update its drinking water infrastructure, upgrade the Lifeguard Headquarters, and is looking at a variety of projects that include a community swimming pool. The budget is finite. What would you prioritize or eliminate?
• Some communities receive annual or quarterly crime statistic updates from their law enforcement agencies. Should Seal Beach Police provide quarterly crime stats at council meetings?
