SANDPOINT — Local council and mayoral candidates in contested races got a chance to match their pitch to area voters at a Monday candidate forum.

Monday’s forum, hosted by the Bonner County Daily Bee, featured Dover and Sandpoint city council candidates, and Sandpoint mayoral as well as local school board candidates.

While only one of the three candidates for Dover City Council was able to attend the forum, Keith Congleton, who is running for one of two open seats, answered questions about housing availability, uniting the old and new sides of Dover, and defining “progress for the city.” Both Dan Parkin and Steven Haynes said they are traveling and expressed their regrets that they were unable to attend.
