| One simple question for Dale. What is the highest priority for the Mayor and the City of Flint to tackle? |

| He is a terrible neighbor, so what would possibly make him a good mayor? His fall leaves lie in the street because he had a vehicle parked over them on pickup day. He has 4 to 5 overnight visitors 3 to 4 times a week who insist upon blaring their music when coming and going. On most nights, every single light is left on in the home, and he never answers the door when myself or my neighbors try to approach him on these issues. His closest neighbors are anxiously awaiting any type of open forum in the mayoral process to ask him what makes him think he can be a good mayor, when he can't even be a good neighbor. |
