PALM BAY, Florida -- Business owners in Palm Bay, Florida may want to attend an upcoming Mayoral Forum to learn about the three candidates running for that office. 


The Greater Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce is hosting this event on October 3rd from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Senior Center on Culver Avenue in Palm Bay, Florida, according to Victoria Northrup, president and CEO.


The Forum will include candidates William Capote, Will Conyers and current mayor John Mazziotti. Capote is currently Palm Bay city councilman, Conyers is a former mayor of Sebastian and Mazziotti is currently the mayor of Palm Bay.


“This Forum will involve business-related questions addressing issues that surface within the business community from time to time such as code enforcement, permitting and regulations,” stated Northrup.


Dr. Jeff MonteLeon, a local chiropractor and board member on the Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce will facilitate the Forum.  He was selected based on his length of time as a local Palm Bay business owner as well as his years on the chamber board of directors.


The chamber board of directors will submit potential questions for the mayors to answer and from those, seven to ten will be selected to be addressed that evening with the candidates each having 3 minutes to answer each question. The candidates will be given the questions in advance however business owners who attend may submit their own questions that evening for review and several may be selected if time permits.
