Highlighting their differences on tax plans, job creation and voting records, Orange County mayoral hopefuls Bill Segal and Teresa Jacobs squared off recently at a Central Florida Urban League forum called “Conversations with the Candidates.”

The candidates for Orange County mayor found themselves on the same side of several issues: both support SunRail, with Segal saying he believed it would help create jobs, and both oppose Amendment 4. Proponents claim the “Hometown Democracy” amendment, which would put land-use issues on the ballot, gives residents more control over property development. Critics cite job losses and expensive court battles.
