This marks the first time the Chamber has hosted a Rocky View County Municipal Candidates Forum. A minimum of five registered candidates is required for the event to proceed.

The Chamber said the Oct. 1 forum will feature councillor candidates and “provides an opportunity to learn more about each candidate and their business-focused platforms.”
