Mr. Arnold stated:

"Nonetheless, I think the questions [submitted by Bill London] are biased."

Listed below are the questions posed by Bill London (exactly as submitted).
Please explain how these questions are biased.

--------------------------------------------------------------

"1. Moscow's police officers recently approached the city with a request to
form a union. The city refused. Was that the right choice?  Why or why not?
What should the city do now?

2.  Which schools, if any, [K-12, colleges/universities, commercial schools]
should Moscow's zoning code allow downtown in the central business district,
and under what conditions, if any? Explain why.

3.  Please list the changes in city regulations or policy, if any, that you
favor to lessen the depletion of our aquifer: for example, a stronger tiered
rate structure, required use of treated effluent water for irrigation in
parks, required installation of water-conserving designs in new structures,
limitations on building permits, or any other changes?

4.  Should a bridge be built over Paradise Creek to connect Third Street
with Mountain View Road? If no, why not? If yes, should that bridge be built
for use only by bicycles and pedestrians or should the bridge be designed
for motor vehicles? Are there ways to improve the city's approach to
planning and maintaining our transportation needs?

5.  What are your views on the proposed city ball fields on Palouse River
Drive? To ensure that neighborhood parks are created in new subdivisions,
should development of dedicated parkland there occur simultaneously with the
initial development of the subdivision? Are there ways to improve the city's
approach to planning and maintaining city parks?

6. Please include biographical information about yourself and any other
message or contact information you want to share with Moscow voters."

---------------------------------------------------------------------

A candidate may not be required to respond to questions submitted to them,.
However I interpret such failure to reflect on that candidate's lack of
sincerity to his/her constituents.

I am going to vote for the candidate(s) that reflect my sense of vision for
Moscow.  Failure to respond to honest questions reflects a lack of vision by
that candidate.

Take care, Moscow.
