2009 Discussion Forum on Quality of Life Issues with the Candidates for Houston Mayor

September 17, 2009, 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm. The candidates for the office of Houston’s Mayor will discuss quality of life issues that, when addressed appropriately by city government in partnership with others, can have a very real and positive impact on a city’s distinctive character, its sense of civic pride and its economic development. Moderator Nancy Sims, blog author of MayoralMusings.com and a senior vice president of Pierpont Communications, will moderate. The discussion will range from parks and trails, to trees and landscaping, to water quality, to the battle to conquer visual blight, and other quality of life issues of particular interest to the candidates. Anyone who has an interest in the future vitality of the city of Houston will want to attend this event, which is free of charge.
