Because of a scheduling conflict, the Marion City Council candidate forum will be at 1:30 p.m. March 14 at Marion Senior Center, 309 S. Third St., Marion.

Mayoral candidates include incumbent Mary Olson and city councilman Steven Smith.

Jerry Kline, Chris Meierhoff, and Dick Varenhorst are vying for two council positions.

All candidates were invited to participate in the forum. Residents attending the forum may write questions to be asked during the forum. Questions also may be submitted to the Marion County Record.

If Smith is elected mayor, the council will appoint someone to complete his term as councilman.

The city election is April 6.
