Question for Candidates for Governor
(by Morgan W. Brown - August 20, 2008)
Editor:
If you were allowed to pose only one question to be answered by each of the candidates for Governor of Vermont, what would it be?
Speaking for myself and, while I am by no means a person who could be termed a one issue voter, it is my opinion that among the key issues in serious need to be made top priorities and meaningfully addressed by the candidates for Governor are both homelessness and affordable housing.
Thus, if I were allowed to pose one question to be answered by the candidates for Governor, it would be:
If the voters (re-)elect you as Governor in the general election, when it comes to addressing homelessness and affordable housing across the state, please answer the following five (5) part question:
* Priorities: What type of priority would both of these matters hold within your administration?
* Steps: What concrete steps would your administration take to address these matters?
* Time Lines: What time lines would your administration set for addressing such?
* Outcomes: What are the expected outcomes be by which your administration would measure the effectiveness of such proposals?
* Funding: How would your administration fund such proposals?
