ST. GEORGE — Matters tied to St. George’s continuing growth were discussed among 11 of the 13 St. George City Council candidates during a forum held at the St. George branch of the Washington County Library Monday evening.

The Dixie Republican Forum, which is not affiliated with the Utah Republican Party, sponsored the event, with forum president Larry Meyers moderating.

Candidates present at the forum included incumbent Ed Baca, husband and wife Greg and Carol Aldred, Gregg McArthur, Christopher Call, Doug Solstad, Dannielle Larkin, Shane Wood, Chuck Goode and Bryan Thiriot.

The other two incumbents, Bette Arial and Jimmie Hughes, were unable to attend due to prior engagements.

With multiple questions for the 11 candidates in just a short amount of time, each candidate was limited to one-minute responses.

“So many topics, so little time,” McArthur joked as the forum progressed.

Growth-related topics including transportation, the Lake Powell pipeline, and zoning and code enforcement were at the forefront of discussion among the candidates.
