When asked about the county’s revenue cap incumbent Republican Bob Culver said he had no plans for its repeals but said he was open to a study of the measure.

Finally, the television station reported that Democratic candidate John Hamilton promised to clean up the flood areas a top but admitted that it was a complicated problem.

The forum was sponsored by the Greater Salisbury Committee, the Salisbury Ara Chamber of Commerce and PACE at Salisbury University.
