How do the candidates measure up when it comes to green space issues?

To help you get to know which candidates are most in line with your priorities, Boston Park Advocates created and distributed a mayoral candidate questionnaire. We asked them about topics such as equity, funding, and their personal connection to parks and community gardens.

We hope you will find the questionnaire responses helpful as you evaluate the candidates. 

Visit our website to see their questionnaire responses.

Then join us on June 29th at 6 for the Mayoral Candidate Forum to learn more about their records and visions. Free. Links will be sent to registrants. Register HERE The Garden Club of the Back Bay is a cosponsor of this event.
