Corroon, Cook, Ivory debate
3 tackle variety of issues at S.L. Rotary luncheon
Cook despite his frequent self-identification as Republican touted his contention that the mayor's office should be nonpartisan. Corroon said he will pursue a bipartisan administration. Ivory was unashamedly in favor of the political system.
"The two-party system works," Ivory said.
Ivory conceded not many can do what he is trying to do run a campaign without contributions while declining to draw a salary should he win. But he said it's the right thing to do in the current situation.
"The root of the problems in the county is money," he said.
Corroon, on the other hand, said a salary can help spur performance in his words, "hold their feet to the fire."
Cook has repeatedly decried "developers having a desk in the mayor's office." But Ivory vigorously denies the implication that he a former developer would use his influence as mayor to promote big business and development at the expense of other things.
Corroon said, "We're spending a lot of time developing developments but not a lot of time developing communities."
