As a Second District voter in Richmond, I'd like to know what that district's two councilmanic candidates think of the Redskins/Bon Secours deal. After all, the proposed practice facility will be in the district they hope to represent for the next four years.
So, I want incumbent Charles Samuels and challenger Charlie Diradour to say why they support it? Or why they do not support it.
This will be an important matter for City Council to consider. Voters in all of Richmond districts (with contested races) should press their candidates to comment on this complicated deal. As it is structured, is it in the best interests of Richmond's citizens?
