This article was originally published Oct. 16, 2019. DERBY — The Valley Indy conducted separate interviews this month with incumbent Republican Mayor Rich Dziekan and his challenger, Democrat Brian Coppolo.

The interviews were recorded and are presented below. 

Topics covered include Derby’s recent financial problems, economic development, whether the mayor’s term should be four years instead of two, and the reasons both men are running for public office.
