Re-Fresh Friday: October 16, 2026
A special Friday edition of Petaluma Voice
Happy Friday, Petaluma Voice readers.
Last week we published interviews with six candidates for Petaluma City Council.
Today we are sharing additional long-form interviews with mayoral candidates John Hanania, a local businessman, and Kevin McDonnell, Petaluma's current mayor. A third mayoral candidate, Shelina Moreda, declined to participate.

We also have some breaking news about the building on Liberty Street vacated by Sacks Hospice Thrift Shoppe in May. Another local thrift store is planning an expansion into the space in the coming months. Read more in our Petaluma Voice exclusive.
