2017 candidates answer questions on energy in Minneapolis
In early 2017, we gave all Minneapolis city council and mayoral candidates a questionnaire about our local energy future. We hope that the discussion here elevates the incredible influence energy [and the decisions made about it in these crucial next years] has on housing stability, cost of living, community wealth, economic opportunity, health, and climate resilience.
**Community Power does not endorse candidates and publishes questionnaires to educate the public on the energy vision & plans of all candidates for any given city race**
