Hear the recent Sandpoint City Council Candidates’ Forum

On October 20, join us from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. in the Community Room at the Sandpoint Center, 414 Church St., for a forum focused on the three open Sandpoint City Council seats. Candidates include incumbents Joel Aispuro and Rick Howarth, and challengers Joshua Torrez (listed on the ballot as Torrez Joshua) and Joe Tate. Each will share their background, qualifications, and reasons for running, followed by city representatives discussing ballot measures and a session of moderated audience questions. The forum will be broadcast live on 88.5 FM and streamed right here at krfy.org, with a recording available afterward. Hosted by the Sandpoint Reader, KRFY Panhandle Community Radio, and SandpointOnline.com.

A note on KRFY funding

How has defunding and closure of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting affected KRFY? Our station is funded solely by listeners, supporters and underwriters and has never received funding from the CPB. But some syndicated shows KRFY airs will be affected. The National Federation of Community Broadcasters has prepared a statement on impacts of the CPB closure. Click to read it.
