Hello Neighbors,
It is with a heavy heart that I announce my resignation from the Salt Lake City Council effective Monday, October 4, 2021.
Last year, I made the decision to not run for a third term, but it was always my intention to complete my final term. However, life circumstances have changed and it has become necessary for me to shift my focus and give my undivided attention to the people that matter the most to me—my children.
For the past eight years, it has been both an honor and a privilege to represent the residents of District 1. I am sincerely grateful for the trust and confidence you placed in me to represent you on this Council.
I want to thank my fellow City Council colleagues who serve this great city faithfully and diligently. I would also like to thank the City Council staff who truly make this City run like clockwork, as well as give a special thank you to Mayor Erin Mendenhall and her administration. Lastly, I want to thank my children, Sadie and Stockton. I would not have been able to do this without their love and support. They have had to share their dad with you, the great people of District 1, and I feel it is time for me to focus all of my attention on them.
This has been one of the most difficult decisions I have ever made, and I respectfully request your understanding and consideration at this time. I appreciate your support for my family and me.
Sincerely,
|
