San Marcos mayoral candidates shared their ideas for a better SMTX in the League of Women Voters virtual candidate forum Thursday night.
Mayor Jane Hughson, Randy Dethrow, Justin Harris and Juan Miguel Arredondo each answered questions curated by the league, informed by voters. The forum ended with three questions directly from voters.
In her opening statement, Hughson spoke about making San Marcos better for all residents, citing her work done in her recent term as mayor to alleviate and lessen flooding, to provide more affordable housing options through development approvals and the new land development code and work to provide relief to residents affected by COVID-19. She said a mayor should listen and advocate for everyone, compromise and be well versed in the administrative duties.
