Eight candidates for Plano City Council gathered this morning for a forum hosted by the Plano Chamber of Commerce.

Chamber board Chairman-elect Jeff Buckley kicked off the forum: "This may be the most competitive council race I've seen yet, and I've been in Plano 30 years."

Each candidate answered questions about their positions on property taxes, development and redevelopment of the city.
