Q&A

Why should voters elect you and not your opponent?

Davis: Despite being the challenger in this race, I have far more experience on council and have served and chaired most other committees in the last 30 years.

Radtke: I am here to serve the citizens of Edgerton and help in any way I can.

What is the most important issue in this election and how would you address it?

Davis: We need to increase our tax base to relieve burdens on families and other business owners. Inviting locally owned and small city-friendly businesses would be a start.

Radtke: I believe good planned growth could be our biggest challenge. We must create clear guidelines and remain steady in our decisions to help the citizens of Edgerton.

Should the city spend more or less on police? Explain.

Davis: As president of the Police Commission, I believe our police force needs to be fully equipped with modern resources. This includes training and education. The appropriate funding for that department is a priority.

Radtke: It is important to have the best training to identify mental health needs at all times and to promote safety for everyone. If this takes additional effort and spending, then I am for this.
