The South Portland Land Trust will give City Council candidates an opportunity to present their views on a wide range of environmental issues, including those related to the use of open space in the city, when it hosts a debate from 7-8:30 p.m. Oct. 21.
The debate will be held virtually and broadcast live on SPC-TV.
All four candidates, Richard Matthews and Misha Pride in District 3 and Linda Cohen and Margaret Brownlee in District 4, have been invited to participate.
With the exception of last year, the Land Trust has organized the round-robin debate every year since 2008.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
