Craig Smith enjoys the way reporting can be a passport to interesting experiences.
TUCSON, Ariz. — The City of Tucson has a big election less than a month away—the vote to decide Tucson’s Mayor. KGUN 9 has been interviewing all four candidates. In this profile we hear from Independent candidate Ed Ackerley.
“We're inviting people from all over the world to come to Tucson to enjoy our culture and our museums and our restaurants and our city of gastronomy and we're trying to do lots of great things and bringing people to Tucson, come to Tucson and they see like, what are we thinking? Streets are filthy, the medians are filthy, the weeds are three feet high.”Tucson mayoral candidate: Ed Ackerley Tucson Mayors do not have the power to simply give orders and make things happen.
On homelessness, Ackerley says he’s not against helping someone who’s displaced by domestic violence or maybe economic trouble but he rejects the city’s emphasis on Housing First policies. They concentrate on getting someone a place to live then working on underlying problems like mental illness or drug addiction.
