Salado Village Voice put the following questions to the Mayoral and Aldermen candidates. Early voting begins on April 23.

Question 1: There have been preliminary discussions of a landowner giving property to the village that would serve as a small day-time only airport (operated by the municipality). The developer would retain the surrounding property to sell hangars/apartments to owners of small airplanes. All of the property, to include the hangars/apartments, would be annexed into the Village. Is this good or bad for the Village? Why? (200 words)

Question 2: What is your opinion on the future of The Sanctuary development and its impact on the Village? (300 words)

Question 3: What is your opinion on the maintenance, operation and use of Pace Park property? (250 words)
