Warwick mayoral candidates debate T.F. Green, lawn mowing and chickens

Warwick’s three mayoral candidates can’t seem to find much common ground on the issues affecting the city — including how the ground itself is maintained.

At a debate Thursday afternoon inside a packed Warwick Public Library, Democratic challenger Leah Hazelwood criticized Independent Mayor Frank Picozzi’s administration for only having two city workers dedicated to mowing the city’s public areas.

Picozzi maintained the city has “multiple people cutting,” but that wasn’t enough for Hazelwood, who demanded to know who exactly was in charge of cutting the grass.

“That’s me, I go out and start the lawn mowers every morning,” Picozzi responded.
