Five candidates for the four at-large seats on the Haverhill City Council in the November general election squared off at the first Hillies Forum with property taxes, housing and public safety the leading topics. Michaela Gunning served as master of ceremonies at the event aired live on HC Media and streamed by the Haverhill Democratic City Committee. Then after an intermission, they faced off in a Family Feud-type competition based on Haverhill trivia. On the topic of property taxes, Morales took on his four competitors saying he doesn’t think they have done enough to keep property taxes down. Jordan, among others, said property taxes shot up because the city put off paying for its needs.
