About this episode
It’s the freezing cold start to an election year, so this year we made a point of getting Salt Lake City’s candidates for mayor Rocky Anderson and Michael Valentine on the record about one of our most urgent issues: homelessness. Today, in the final installment of our three-interview series, host Ali Vallarta talks with current SLC Mayor Erin Mendenhall about her record on this issue, including her position on sanctioned camping. A little housekeeping: These were not debates — each conversation focuses on the candidates’ own record and proposals. None of our guests heard the others’ interviews prior to recording theirs. And as always, we edited the conversations for length and clarity. Subscribe to our daily morning newsletter . You can find us on Instagram @CityCastSLC and Twitter @CityCastSLC .
