We have sent out a request to respond to each Council Candidate three times now.  We have not heard anything from the following candidates: Twon Billings, Lyni Cintron, Chris Demas, TJ Dow, Pernel Jones Jr., Martin Keane, Eugene Miller, Terrell Pruitt, Olga Sarbinowska, and Gennoris Williams-Heard. We did hear from: Zachary Reed who said that he was still studying the issue? We also heard on 10/6/09 from Anthony Brancatelli who altered the form to condition his support on the understanding that the state of Ohio might already provide these regulations.  This is not an endorsement of the campaign with his additional commentary.
