Mayoral Debate Highlights

Bloomington's four candidates for mayor have four different views of taxing. The question of 'Will you raise taxes' became the central theme of last night's debate. Mayor Renner said maybe. Ian Bayne again said he wants to slash taxes, but didn't offer any specifics about how the city could cut spending. Kevin Lower and Robert Fike told the crowd the biggest problem is how Bloomington spends money. Both men say they'll hold the line on city spending. Alderman Diana Hauman didn't make the event.
