The City of Sydney Council Elections are to be held in September.

Wednesday 10th August is ARAG’s regular monthly meeting and once again we are teaming with REDwatch, Friends of Erskineville and Chippendale Residents’ Interest Group to host another Candidates’ Forum.

Be at the Alexandria Town Hall in Garden Street to hear the candidates speak on issues relevant to Alexandria, and to ask your questions. Be informed before you vote. ARAG is not aligned politically – we host these events to inform our residents.

REDwatch, ARAG, FoE and CRIG have agreed two questions of concern to residents that each candidate must address in their presentation before speaking to other issues.

The first question is their attitude to WestConnex; the second relates to business voting in the City of Sydney.

The confirmed speakers at this time are:

• Clover Moore, Lord Mayor
• Linda Scott, CoSC Councillor – Labor
• Angela Vithoulkas, CoSC Councillor – Sydney Matters
• Lindsay Johnston, Greens Candidate

We believe that Liberal candidate Christine Forster will send a member of her group to speak on her behalf.

We’d welcome your interest and attendance on Wednesday 10th August at Alexandria Town Hall from 7 pm sharp.
