DAVENPORT, Iowa (KWQC) - TV6 reached out to candidates for Davenport mayor and city council with a list of questions to help voters make an informed decision in the Oct. 10 primary.

We asked them:

• What are the biggest challenges facing the city, and how would you address them if elected?
• What are three priorities you want to see the city accomplish if elected?
• What is your assessment of the city’s budget? Is the city spending money on the right things?
• How do you think the city should have responded in the lead-up/aftermath of the partial collapse of The Davenport? Would you have done anything differently?
• What can the city do to foster more economic development?
• How would you rate the city’s transparency with the public?
