Maureen Belko Takes a Stand at Cardinal News Candidate Forum

In a recent candidate forum hosted by Cardinal News, seven of the nine individuals vying for seats on the Danville City Council gathered to share their views on key issues, including housing, casino spending, collective bargaining, and the controversial animal shelter debate.

Among the participants, Maureen Belko made her mark by emphasizing the need for middle-income housing to alleviate the strain on lower-income households. Belko also highlighted her approach to casino revenue, suggesting that funds should focus on infrastructure improvements and essential services, rather than luxury amenities like splash pads.

Belko provided thoughtful insights on the animal shelter controversy, advocating for data-driven solutions. She stressed the importance of the shelter having long-term planning, full-time fundraising, and marketing staff to improve operations and foster collaboration.
