Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
But
all
of
that
will
hinge
on
what
happens
with
the
referendum
and
if
the
tax
reform
bill
doesn't
goes
on
hold,
then
those
other
bills
may
or
may
not
move
or
they
may
get
modified.
So
we're
watching
that
and
and
we
coordinate
we
try
to
coordinate
often
with
the
school
district,
but
income
tax
obviously
affects
them
much
more
than
it
does
the
city,
although
we
try
and
watch
for
each
other.
A
Will
just
I
will
just
add
a
couple
of
parting
thoughts.
One
is
this
is
a
very
fluid
environment.
It
changes
rapidly,
so
the
overview
I've
given
you
today
is
valid
for
about
the
next
30
minutes,
and
then
it
will
change
right.
I
will
try
to
send
you
regular
updates
during
the
session,
and
you
know
just
an
email
saying:
here's
the
highlights
of
what
happened
in
the
last
week.
We
will
also
be
meeting
weekly
I
think
with
the
legislative
sub
consul
legislative
subcommittee
and
we'll
be
having
sort
of
ongoing
dialogue
about
these
issues.
A
But
if
you
become
aware
of
something
a
constituent
raises
something
to
your
attention
or
you
you
hear
about
something:
please
don't
wait
for
one
of
these
meetings
call
or
text
me.
Let
me
know
I
will
go
through
every
email
every
day.
So,
but
you
know
sometime
that
night
I'll
get
to
all
the
emails
that
rolled
in.
But
if
it's
urgent
call
or
text
me,
but
don't
hesitate,
you
know
it
this
time
of
year.
A
B
C
C
C
C
B
D
E
B
Your
stuff
is
here
all
right,
so
all
right,
so
we
will
get
started
on
well
continuing
our
meeting
from
across
the
hall
council
members
in
front
of
you.
You
have
a
printed
table
with
a
list
of
all
of
the
applicants
and
the
applicants
for
district
5
for
the
district
5
seats
have
been
asked
to
provide
a
five-minute
verbal
presentation
on
a
topic
of
their
choice.
As
a
reminder,
there
will
be
no
electronic
presentations
if
handouts
are
provided,
council
staff
will
distribute
them.
This
is
not
a
opportunity
for
a
Q&A
or
dialogue
with
the
council.
B
Member
each
applicant
will
be
timed
by
council
staff
and
applicants
will
be
notified
of
their
time
limit
when
the
executive
director
announces
time,
if,
once
the
executive
director
announces
time.
If
you
will
please
finish
your
sentence,
not
necessarily
your
thought
or
train
of
thoughts,
because
we
do
have
many
applicants
depending
on
how
long
it
takes
between
speeches.
We
could
be
here
up
to
3
hours
so
settle
in
and
please
respect
the
time
of
the
person
presenting
after
you,
I
will
call
2
people
to
begin
with.
B
The
first
person
will
would
please
come
to
the
podium
and
the
microphone
and
then
the
second
person
please
be
ready
to
follow
before
we
jump
into
that.
I
just
want
to
say
very
quickly
that
today,
we're
tasked
with
filling
the
vacancy
for
the
district
5
seed
left
by
former
councilmember.
Now
mayor,
Aaron
Mendenhall.
This
is
a
process
that
we're
required
to
do
by
under
state
statute.
B
For
me,
personally,
this
is
a
very
difficult
process.
I.
Actually,
this
is
my
least
favorite
part
of
being
a
city
council.
Member,
for
you
know
obvious
issues,
I
think
with
the
system.
The
fact
that
that
we,
the
six
people
who
don't
live
in
District
five,
will
may
be
making
the
determination
for
who
will
represent
the
people
of
District
five.
B
Nevertheless,
this
is
a
progress,
a
process
that
we
take
very
seriously
as
council
members,
I
think
I
know
all
my
colleagues
have
gone
carefully
through
the
materials,
but
there's
no
set
formula.
There's
nothing!
That's
set
forward
in
state
statute.
That
says
this
is
what
you
should
consider.
This
is
how
you
should
approach
it.
B
B
B
F
Wonderful
well
good
afternoon,
Thank
You
Council
for
your
to
your
time
today
and
allowing
me
to
call
in
my
goal
is
the
following:
to
give
you
a
greater
understanding
of
my
experience
and
how
it
is
directly
related
to
the
council's
work.
I
mean
a
clearer
picture
of
my
background
and
the
route
that
led
me
to
where
I
am
today
to
show
you
that
I'm
aware
of
the
issues
at
my
district
in
our
city
currently
faith
and
what
progress
the
council
has
made.
F
In
addition,
I
hope
to
give
you
a
clear
idea
of
my
character,
my
absolute
passion,
my
objectivity,
my
fights,
my
persistence
and
my
collaborative
nature.
Ultimately
I
hope
you
walk
away,
knowing
that
I
can
hit
the
ground
running
on
this
team
in
some
ways,
I
feel
like
my
path
was
always
leading
me
to
serve.
F
At
a
few
months
old,
my
parents
took
me
to
one
of
the
first
Twilight
concerts
on
Abravanel
Halle
blonde
I
spent
hours
playing
at
Liberty
Park
hiking
through
our
Wasatch
Mountains,
and
got
covered
in
paint
and
glitter
at
the
Utah's
comfortable
I
helped.
My
neighbor
run
for
City
recorder
walked
in
the
Utah
pride
parade
and
the
Pioneer
Day
Parade
I
moved
away
from
Utah
twice
I
went
to
college
in
Southern
California
and
spent
a
short
stint
in
the
Bay
Area.
F
It
took
me
leaving
to
realize
how
much
I
loved
Salt
Lake
along
the
way,
I
also
learned
from
the
other
cities.
What
we
can
incorporate
to
make
this
place
even
better
through
my
passion
of
the
city
and
love
to
the
people,
I've
both
a
resume
and
a
slight
obsession
for
Salt
Lake
I
have
a
strong
background
in
local
businesses.
F
Over
this
time,
I've
learned
to
listen
I've
learned
when
to
ask
for
clarification
when
to
push
back
and
when
to
compromise.
I
understand
our
growth
working
in
commercial,
real
estate,
I'm,
aware
of
Salt
Lake
City's
shift
from
a
tertiary,
the
secondary
market
daily.
We
have
investors
looking
to
break
in-state
first
rate
has
dropped
some
four
point:
three
to
two
breaths
per
person.
Last
decade,
however,
integration
has
increased
substantially
over
50,000
people
move
here
each
year
with
the
majority
locating
along
the
Wasatch
Front.
F
The
council
has
done
a
phenomenal
job,
with
the
RDA
to
lay
out
great
growth
strategies
and
identifying
sectors
of
our
city
for
redevelopment
as
our
population
grows
and
more
companies.
Okay,
here
we
are
increasingly
faced
with
the
challenges
of
air
quality,
homelessness,
infrastructure
constraints
and
affordability,
especially
as
people
relocate
with
higher
incomes
and
create
competition
in
our
housing
market.
It
is
key
for
us
to
stay
in
front
of
these
challenges.
F
I
see
the
positive
changes
from
operation,
Rio,
Grande
and
truly
honor
the
mayor,
and
you
guys
the
council
for
your
quick
solution
of
sugar
houses,
overflow
shelter.
We
need
to
continue
working
with
alternative
transportation
methods,
supporting
mass
transit,
continuing
partnerships
for
incentives
to
increase
ridership
and
help
alleviate
pressures
on
air
quality.
We.
C
F
Continue
to
strengthen
our
neighborhoods
with
organic,
intelligent,
supported
growth,
we
should
prize
local
and
support
the
uniqueness
of
areas
like
ninth
and
ninth
and
Marmalade.
Let's
continue
to
recognize
the
incredible
benefits.
A
coffee
shop
like
coffee
garden
gives
to
our
community.
Let's
continue
to
support
the
redevelopment
of
central,
9th
working
with
strategic
public-private
partnerships
to
grow
in
a
way
that
is
still
affordable
for
our
community.
Neighborhoods,
foster,
greater
community
sense
of
belonging,
increased
safety
and
create
an
understanding
amongst
our
differences
in
closing
I'm.
F
A
passionate
involved
millennial
with
supportive
wife
and
two
puppies
I
feel,
like
my
past,
has
led
me
to
serve
this
city.
I
bring
a
private
blend
of
private
I,
bring
a
great
blend
of
private
public
experience.
I
love
the
city
and
truly
hope
that
my
voice
benefits
my
district,
this
council
and
our
city.
Thank
you.
B
F
H
Okay,
so
no
pressure
on
me
since
I
get
to
be
the
first
person
here
talking
to
you,
I'm
not
going
to
have
quite
as
much
defined
information
as
she
did.
You
have
my
questionnaires,
my
resume
so
I
know
what
I
really
like
to
talk
about
is
to
get
you
to
know
who
I
am
personally
and
why
I'm
I'm
here
so
I
want
to
talk
about
my
time
in
Salt
Lake.
H
My
my
previous
public
service
and
also
my
service
to
our
Union
I,
have
been
a
resident
of
district
5
for
26
years
I'm
living
in
my
second
home
in
the
area
and
I've
raised
my
children.
There
I
have
two
kids
14
year
old
and
18
year
old
and
my
kids
have
grown
up
in
public
schools
in
our
neighborhood.
My
daughter
is
now
at
the
you
doing
great
and
my
14
year
old
is
at
East
High
School,
also
having
a
wonderful
time.
H
H
Besides
that
I've
been
in
public
service
for
20
years,
I've
been
a
firefighter
for
20
years
and
beyond
being
a
firefighter
my
area
that
I
serve
services,
the
road
home,
so
I
am
at
the
road
home
in
Midvale,
because
I
don't
work
for
Salt
Lake
I
work
for
unified
fire
I'm
at
the
road
home
at
least
once
a
week,
sometimes
eight
times
in
a
night,
so
I
work
with
them.
I
know
what
their
problems
are.
I
know
what
their
issues
are
from
a
personal
level.
H
H
Another
way.
Well,
I'm
dedicated
the
community
as
I
started.
A
nonprofit
called
unified
fire
fighters.
Outreach
we've
raised
over
$50,000
in
supported,
burn
camp
of
University,
Hospital
angels,
Hands,
Foundation
and
Neighborhood.
House
are
just
three
of
the
things
we've
supported:
I
also
serve
as
the
president
of
my
local
union
and
in
the
past.
I
was
on
the
district
vice-president
for
the
professional
firefighters
of
Utah.
H
Since
Salt
Lake
is
not
in
my
area,
I,
don't
know
any
of
you
very
well,
but
I
do
work
with
City,
Council
and
mayor's
from
every
other
city.
In
the
valley
we
have
17
communities
that
we
represent
from
the
fire
fire.
Sir
and
I
worked
with
all
of
them
all
the
time
and
so
I've
collaborated
with
them.
We
work
towards
bettering
the
community
and
bettering
the
service
of
the
fire
fire
agency,
not
just
to
benefit
the
firefighters
and,
along
with
that,
the
PFF.
You
have
worked
up
at
the
legislature
on
many
issues.
H
I've
presented
a
couple
of
times
and
work
on
all
our
bills.
We
have
up
there
so
now
personal,
big
mountain
biker,
I
love
that
we're
doing
all
the
trail
systems
above
the
university.
That's
a
great
expansion
that
makes
me
really
happy
long,
hiking
as
well
and
honestly
I'm
a
backcountry,
skier
and
I
love
it
when
it
snows
at
Thani
in
the
valley
and
I.
Can
ski
right
above
the
avenues?
That's
one
of
the
best
things:
I
love,
Salt,
Lake,
quick,
covering
of
my
issues
that
I
had
on
my
questions.
H
But
the
homelessness
issue
is
a
huge
part
of
what
I
deal
with
on
a
regular
basis.
I
see
what
they
need.
I
actually
can
see
what
would
help
them
on
a
regular
basis.
My
concepts
all
centered
around
more
SROs
or
accessory
dwelling
units
either.
One
I
think
that
we
can
do
more
in
that
regard
and
I
think
you
guys
have
done
a
great
job
so
far
getting
there.
H
My
personal
issue
in
my
neighborhood
is
how
we
develop
over
the
next
few
years.
Developments
important
and
I'm,
not
saying
close
the
door
behind
me,
but
I'd
like
to
retain
the
character
of
our
neighborhoods
instead
of
razed
and
rebuild
all
the
time
so
I
know
that's
a
thought.
That's
gone
through
your
heads
and
you've
been
working
on
that,
but
that's
here
and
dear
to
my
heart
and
diversity
is
super
important.
H
I
have
a
I
have
a
master's
in
public
administration
and
through
that
I've
learned
all
about
how
the
diversity
assists
all
of
us
to
learn
more
and
get
a
better
grasp
of
how
the
room
thinks
big
reason.
I'm
here
is
I
want
to
see
this
get
into
this
process
know.
What's
going
on,
I
can't
believe
this
twenty-eight
people
applied
for
this
position.
That's
fantastic
I'm
figured
to
be
two
or
three,
but
28
is
awesome.
So
thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
for
this.
I
I
C
I
All
right
there
we
go
always
to
notice
when
there's
no
hurry
to
get
your
computer
to
pick
it
up,
it
does
it
instantly,
and
if
there
is
it
takes
forever.
Let's
start
my
own
timer,
all
right,
I'm
gonna,
start
off
by
saying
that
I'm
not
bothered
by
public
speaking
I've
been
the
other
hand,
I'm,
not
sure
I'm,
very
good
at
it
either
so
we'll
just
have
to
muddle
through
together.
I
Thank
you
for
this
opportunity
to
speak.
I
know
there
are
a
lot
of
good
candidates
here
today
and
I
know
it'll
not
be
an
easy
decision
for
you
to
make
I
bet.
It's
been
a
long
couple
of
weeks,
for
you,
I'm
sure
you
will
be
is
be
glad
as
glad
that
this
is
over,
as
many
of
us
will
be
too,
maybe
more
so
many
nods
or
slight
grins
or
anything.
I
Everybody's
got
their
poker
faces
on
what
I'd
like
to
speak
about
is
what
I
can
bring
the
City
Council
I'm
not
going
to
go
over
what
I've
already
submitted
as
I
know.
You
have
studied
it
thoroughly,
but
I'll
try
and
summarize
it
in
some
broad
categories.
As
such,
one
I
have
a
long
history
of
volunteerism
public
engagement
in
public
service.
One
of
my
personal
values
was
what
I
call
civic
duty.
The
emphasis
is
on
the
word
duty,
I,
think
I've
shown
through
my
actions
going
back
25
years.
I
How
deeply
I,
embodied
this
I
didn't
wake
up
a
couple
of
months
ago
and
decide
that
I
wanted
to
enter
public
service.
I
started
thinking
about
City
Council.
Ten
years
ago,
I
actually
ran
six
years
ago.
I
was
beaten
by
are
now
sitting
mayor,
as
she
can
tell
you,
I
didn't,
take
it
personal,
become
petty
or
infective.
I
just
went
back
to
what
I
was
what
I
had
been
doing
all
along.
I
Subsequently
I
worked
very
closely
with
her
on
many
issues
in
the
district,
as
she
can
verify
got
a
nod
there
and
I
have
experienced
getting
things
done.
I
have
knowledge
of
the
city,
many
of
the
personnel
and
how
it
works.
I
have
a
track
record
of
consequential
results
and,
regardless
that
the
outcome
of
this
process,
I
will
remain
proud
of
that
work.
I
am
a
known.
I
You
only
have
the
ability
to
influence
other
people
and
perceive
them
with
convincing
presentations
and
good
arguments,
facts
figures
and
knowing
how
things
work
enable
you
to
do
that.
I'm,
a
decision
maker
I've
learned
to
make
tough
ones,
knowing
I
will
have
to
deal
with
the
consequences.
As
a
city
council
person,
you
frequently
have
to
make
unpopular
ones,
I
call
it
decision-making
for
the
greater
good
I
feel
I've
demonstrated.
I
can
do
that.
I
To
do
this
well,
one
has
to
know
the
issues
thoroughly
educate
yourself
on
every
aspect
of
an
issue
and
be
willing
to
defend
and
explain
yourself
sometimes
too
unhappy
constituents.
You
are
just
not.
You
are
not
just
a
vote
counter.
You
have
to
be
okay
with
people
yelling
at
you,
I
got
used
to
that
being
on
the
Historic
Landmarks
Commission
I'm
a
hard
worker
not
to
get
gruesome,
but
somebody
wants
to
ask
me
what
I
wanted
as
an
epitaph
on
my
gravestone.
I
My
answer
was
bill.
Wasn't
afraid
of
a
hard
day's
work.
I
worked
very
hard
to
represent
this
district
and
to
be
an
effective
city.
Council.
Member
I
know
this
district
very
well.
I
run
a
business
at
work
on
the
far
west
end.
I
live
in
the
middle
and
I
know
that
far
east
and
again
from
my
days
on
the
Historic
Landmarks
Commission
related
to
this
I,
can
bring
a
neighborhood
perspective
from
my
community
council
work.
I
It's
not
just
that
I
work
and
live
here,
but
I've
worked
to
both
strengthen
and
revitalize
neighborhoods
again,
both
as
a
resident
and
a
small
business
owner.
I
feel
like
I,
share
similar
progressive
values
with
many
people
in
the
city
in
you,
both
from
a
public
policy
standpoint
and
a
personal
perspective,
things
like
walkability,
green
space,
air
quality,
Smart,
Growth,
housing,
affordability,
mitigating
crime
and
homelessness,
equality,
diversity.
These
are
all
very
important
to
me.
I
have
small
business
experience
30-plus
years,
starting
to
feel
like
it's
too
much.
I
Small
business
is
a
lifeblood
of
a
great
city.
I
believe
that
small
business
brings
vitality
as
character
and
disproportionately
benefits
things
like
employment,
income
and
wages.
I
can
I
feel
I
can
bring
this
experience
to
bear
again
for
the
greater
good,
finally
vision,
I.
Think
the
role
of
a
government
official
is
not
to
just
react
to
various
issues
that
pop
up
along
the
way
being
a
problem.
I
Solver
is
definitely
part
of
this
job
description,
but
I
also
think
is
important
to
imagine
what
might
be
and
can
be
and
work
to
make
it
happen
time
and
help
others
to
see
that
collective
vision
and
work
together
towards
it
I'm
sure
they
paragraph
or
two
but
I'll,
stop
there
because
I
think
no
I'll
say
this
in
conclusion:
I'll
be
ready
on
day
one.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
B
J
J
I
am
a
Utah
native
I
was
born
and
raised
here
and
I.
Didn't
necessarily
think
I
would
end
up
living
here
as
I
was
growing
up,
but
after
I
lived
and
traveled
and
worked
in
other
states,
and
this
seems
to
be
a
common
thread
among
the
people
applying.
They
realized
that
Utah's
truly
an
incredible
place
and
wanted
to
come
home.
So
I'm
back
and
I've
been
here
for
a
number
of
years.
I've
lived
in
district
5
for
close
to
20
years.
J
At
this
point,
my
husband
and
I
moved
just
about
two
years
ago,
but
we
only
moved
three
blocks
because
we
really
loved
the
area
where
we
live
so
I
really
loved
the
area,
I,
really
loved,
being
part
of
the
community
and
I'm
very
invested
in
it.
I
know
that
we
have
turned
in
our
answers
to
things,
but
I
just
want
to
quickly
say
a
couple
of
my
top
concerns
and
issues
I
think
are
beyond
district
5
I
think
their
statewide
I
think
our
air
quality
everyone
knows
is
an
issue
that
we
have
to
address.
J
We're
consistently
one
of
the
worst
states
in
the
nation
for
air
quality
and
it's
a
real
problem
and
I.
Think
I,
don't
know
the
answer
to
solving
that.
But
I
have
some
ideas.
I
would
love
to
get
more
involved.
I.
Think
the
alternative,
renewable
energy
sources
are
a
really
great
place
to
start
I
think
the
public
transit
downtown
is
so
incredible
and
if
we
can
make
it
more
available
across
more
of
the
state,
especially
as
more
people
are
working
on
the
West
End
of
the
valley
and
farther
south,
that
will
help
a
lot.
J
The
the
calling
in
running
cars
hotline
I
know
is
a
little
bit
controversial
and
I
know
that
they've
gotten
a
ton
more
calls
this
year.
I
think
if
we
can
continue
to
inform
people
about
the
difference
that
idling
cars
makes
people
don't
want
terrible
air
people
want
to
be
part
of
the
solution.
I
think
just
information
and
education
will
help
a
lot
with
that.
J
I
also
think
electric
cars
are
becoming
more
available
to
more
people,
and
if
we
can
set
the
city
up
to
support
that
with
dedicated
parking
places
and
charging
stations
I
know
there
was
a
program
for
a
while
with
hybrids
to
allow
free
parking,
downtown
I,
think
that
will
get
people
on
board
I.
Really
think
people
want
to
help.
Excuse
me
want
to
help,
and
if
we
can
help
them
know
ways
to
do
it,
they'll
go
towards
it.
J
I
think.
Another
big
issue
for
us
is
housing,
and
this
is
another
one
that
keeps
coming
up
with
people
there's
a
lot
of
high-density
housing
going
in
and
I
think
that's
great.
It
means
that
the
state
is
growing
and
that's
great
for
economy
I
think
it
does
put
a
strain
on
the
infrastructure,
the
underlying
streets,
roads,
power,
consumption,
water
consumption
and
I-
think
we
have
to
be
out
in
front
of
that.
J
Instead
of
excuse
me
trying
to
address
it
after
it's
an
issue
as
I
was
thinking
about
stuff
like
this
I
was
wondering
if
we
could
encourage
businesses
as
they
grow
in
landscape
to
to
do
landscaping,
that's
more
in
line
with
the
natural
culture
and
less
heavily
reliant
on
water
stuff,
like
that.
Just
find
a
way
to
get
people
involved
in
that
and
that
ties
into
another
one
that
I'm
worried
about,
which
is
the
homelessness
issue.
J
I
live
right
by
Liberty
Park,
and
the
number
and
permanence
of
some
of
the
encampments
has
really
been
noticeable
talking
to
neighbors
and
friends
in
the
area.
They
have
noticed
an
uptick
and
drug
activity
around
the
houses
and
feel
less
safe
out
walking
dogs
at
night,
and
that's
something
that
concerns
me
personally.
J
If
we
can
build
transitional
housing
and
some
low-income
housing
into
some
of
these
new
developments
going
in
I
think
we
can
really
help
people
get
back
on
their
feet
and
help
the
city
progress,
I'm
talking
so
fast,
because
I'm
a
little
nervous,
but
mostly
that's
it
I,
just
wanted
to
say,
I'm
really
happy
to
be
here.
I'm
brand
new
to
this
I
don't
know
the
answers,
but
I'm
really
excited
to
get
in
and
get
to
work.
So
thanks
for
your
time,
thank.
B
B
A
Hello,
the
City
Council
and
mayor
Mendenhall.
Thank
you
for
coming.
I've
been
to
a
number
of
city
council
meetings
and
this
first
time
the
mayor's
been
here.
I
appreciate
it
and
you
guys
thank
you
for
what
you're
doing
my
name
is
Blake
Quentin
I
am
a
father,
an
energy
efficiency
engineer
and
an
economist
for
the
past
three
years:
I've
owned
a
business
in
Salt,
Lake,
City,
doing
energy
efficiency
audits
and
overseeing
the
work
on
homes
and
small
businesses
in
our
city.
A
Prior
to
that,
I
worked
in
the
dirty
oil
industry.
I
have
many
sins
to
pay
for,
but
the
advantage
of
that
I
really
learned
how
to
oversee
a
budget.
I
learned
how
to
write
the
base
estimate
oversee
the
job,
then
oversee
the
budget.
My
final
role
for
matrix
service
company
was
working
as
a
project
engineer
on
a
1
billion
dollar
project.
A
A
Why
I'm
here
I'm
here,
because
I
love
Salt
Lake?
This
is
the
fifth
time
I've
lived
in
Salt
Lake,
City
I
kept
coming
back
because
it's
a
place,
I,
really
love
being
I,
feel
at
home
in
this
city,
and
it
keeps
getting
bigger
and
better,
but
it's
also
a
challenge
to
manage,
because
I've
lived
in
Seattle
when
it
was
really
struggling
with
the
growth
rates
we're
going
through
now,
hopefully,
I
bring
experience
from
a
world
of
travels
and
a
nation's
worth
of
cities
that
I've
lived
in
so
that
I
can
say.
A
This
is
what
I've
seen
other
places
do,
and
this
is
why
I've
seen
them
fail.
What
I
believe
in
is
that
Salt
Lake
needs
to
be
an
equitable
City.
Clearly,
we
still
have
to
address
the
housing
crisis.
One
of
the
things
we
still
need
to
do.
We
need
to
be
giving
our
builders
a
little
bit
more
option
here.
I,
always
in
my
opinion.
A
They
either
need
to
be
paying
towards
a
fund
for
city
built
buildings
where
they
can
offer
30%
the
equivalent
of
30%
their
units
worth
of
money,
that
we
can
apply
towards
construction
elsewhere
or
they
can
build
those
affordable
housing
units
directly
into
their
structures.
Give
them
some
option
on
how
they
want
to
do
that
and
manage
it.
A
So
other
things
I
have
a
proven
ability
to
oversee
policies
and
procedures
and
the
right
policies
and
procedures,
not
that
writing
of
them
is
your
job,
but
new
policies
and
procedures
get
approved
within
the
City
Council
I
am
used
to
having
to
look
for
what's
going
to
be
the
complication,
because
we
chose
this
new
policy.
I
hope
to
be
effective
in
that
I'm.
Also,
generally,
pretty
good
at
communicating
in
a
fact-based
manner.
A
Specifically
regarding
district
5,
air
quality
has
long
been
a
top
issue.
As
an
environmental
engineer,
I
was
trained
in
air
quality.
If
you
want
some
specifics
on
what
our
city
can
be
doing,
I
would
like
to
see
us
go
to
the
PUC
and
request
that
Rocky
Mountain,
Power
and
Questar
begin
to
target
their
money
towards
the
most
energy
inefficient
buildings.
A
I
can
tell
you
from
my
work
that
I
can
spend
fifteen
thousand
dollars
getting
a
few
hundred
dollars
of
savings
or
fifteen
thousand
dollars,
giving
a
three
year
payback,
comparing
an
efficient
building
to
an
inefficient
building.
Sorry
regarding
construction
equipment,
there
are
different
levels
of
construction
equipment
and
the
amount
of
emissions
they
admit.
Specifically.
A
G
K
I
was
born
Carlos,
Enrique
and
I.
Don't
know
why
my
parents
called
me
by
my
middle
name,
but
that's
what
I
went
by
and
I
also
have
a
hyphenated
last
name
our
Sailor
Etta,
so
I've
gone
through
this
sea
of
craziness
throughout
my
life
I
actually
want
to
kind
of
start
with
the
fact
that
my
inspiration
for
being
here
today
is
really
because
of
my
parents,
specifically
my
father,
who
immigrated
here
in
the
1950s
I'm
a
first
generation
Salt
Lake
er
was
born
and
raised
here.
K
I
went
to
West
High
School
for
the
International
Baccalaureate
program
and
then
the
University
of
Utah
to
study
engineering
and
political
science.
So
my
background
is
mechanical
engineering
and
sort
of
political
science
and
I
think
that
combination
is
very
weird.
It's
very
unusual
combination.
You
don't
usually
see
engineering
students
hanging
out
in
the
mobile
Bennion
Center
at
the
University
of
Utah,
trying
to
do
as
much
public
service
as
possible
in
college
and
learning
all
of
these
sort
of
skills
that
I
later
ran
with.
K
K
He
was
like
the
head
of
the
Bobby
Kennedy's
campaign
here
when
he
was
at
the
University
of
Utah
and
saw
him
like
a
week
before
he
was
assassinated.
Nevertheless,
I.
My
early
memories
are
canvassing
in
Salt,
Lake
City
and
with
my
dad
and
pounding
lawn
signs
up
all
over
the
neighborhoods
and
from
there
it
was
just
like.
K
I
think
that
we
have
to
keep
that
in
mind
that
whoever
ibly
elect
here
today,
I
think
that
or
I
guess,
whoever
you
guys
elect
or
choose
today
should
really
represent
Salt
Lake
City
and
what
I
mean
by
that
is
hopefully
that
you
select
somebody
who
is
representing.
Not
just
you
know
the
just
sort
of
like
the
diverse
aspects
of
all
of
the
city.
K
I
think
that
it's
super
important,
especially
in
district
5,
one
of
the
first
things
I
did
when
I
signed
up
to
for
this
as
I
wanted
to
get
to
know
district
5
a
little
bit
better,
so
I've
decided
to
run
the
boundaries
of
district
5.
So
it's
on
my
like
Strava.
It
was
like
an
11
mile
run,
I'm
training
for
the
Salt
Lake
City,
Marathon
and
I
thought
hey.
K
This
is
going
to
be
a
great
way
to
see
the
district
yeah
pretty
crazy,
I,
also
like
bike
everyday
to
work
and
I've
been
a
bike
commuter
for
mine.
Since
college
and
I
know
a
lot
of
the
city.
I've
done
a
lot
of
the
the
ins
and
outs
of
the
city
and
lived
all
over
the
city
and
I
think
that
by
looking
at
district
5,
it's
really
just
a
microcosm.
You
have
all
kinds
of
industry.
K
You
have
lower
income
areas,
higher
income
areas
and
I
was
like
wow.
How
can
you
get
a
district
person
that
represents
everything
and
again
going
back
to
my
work?
At
West,
High
I
have
taught
a
diverse
number
of
students,
I
a
ver
about
180
different
kinds
of
students.
Every
year,
affluent
students,
low
income,
students
and
I
worked
with
those
families
to
differentiate
the
learnings
so
that
I
could
teach
these
kids
science
and
political
science.
We
have
built
a
robotics
program
down
there
when
we
started
doing
that.
K
It's
a
world
championship
robotics
program
we've
fund
raised
over
$250,000
for
in
ten
years.
No
one
pays
for
that
kind
of
stuff.
We
just
have
to
fundraise
it
and
I
noticed
that
a
lot
of
the
same
affluent
white
kids
were
coming
into
the
program.
So
we
were
I
worked
tirelessly
to
build
various
teams
for
underrepresented
students
for
girls,
and
now
we
have
like
a
very
diverse
field
of
students.
L
L
L
L
Mayor
members
of
the
City
Council
hello
again,
my
name
is
Mike
Aguilar
and
I'm
really
honored
to
be
standing
here
today.
So
thank
you
for
the
opportunity.
When
my
partner,
Kelly
and
I
decided
that
we
were
ready
for
this
journey,
I
was
so
excited
to
tell
people
and
the
question
that
I
would
inevitably
get.
Will
the
one
right
after?
L
My
grandmother
used
to
tell
me
that
the
bait,
the
greatest
gift
that
we
can
give
to
the
community,
is
to
leave
the
world
better
than
we
found
it
and
for
the
past
decade,
I've
been
doing
my
best
to
do
just
that
right
here
in
Salt,
Lake
City.
Some
of
my
contributions
include
saving
the
Utah
pride
Center,
a
safe
space
and
respite
for
Utah's
LGBTQ
community
and
the
host
of
one
of
the
largest
festivals
in
downtown
Salt
Lake
City,
an
economic
boom
for
local
business
I
couldn't
nor
I,
wouldn't
let
you
top
ride.
Fail.
L
L
I've
helped
the
Malinois
Foundation
place
three
service
animals
with
veterans
in
our
community,
the
brave
men
and
women
who
put
their
lives
on
the
line
to
help
in
service
to
our
country.
I've
unapologetically
championed
women's
reproductive
rights
and,
in
fact,
over
the
last
six
months,
have
raised
$100,000
for
Planned
Paris
$100,000
for
Planned
Parenthood,
which
represents

L
J
Good
afternoon,
and
thank
you
for
your
time
today-
my
name
is
Nancy
Phillip
and
rather
than
talk
about.
What's
on
my
resume,
which
you
already
have
I
want
to
tell
you
more
about
Who
I
am
and
what
I
will
bring
is
a
great
partner
to
the
City
Council.
It
all
starts
with
my
mama.
She
was
a
tough
as
nails,
woman
raising
eight
children,
three
of
us
by
herself.
She
worked
hard.
J
Sometimes
two
and
three
jobs
just
to
make
ends
meet
that
hard
work
paid
off
and
she
was
able
to
own
several
businesses
in
Utah
and
she
travelled
the
world.
She
loved
travel.
I,
however,
did
not
get
her
Travel
wanderlust
gene,
however,
being
born
and
raised
in
Utah
I
knew
that
I
wanted
an
experience
outside
the
state.
J
So
I
worked
throughout
high
school
at
Leeds,
his
pizzas,
a
classic
in
the
city
saved
my
money
and
as
soon
as
I
graduated
high
school
took
myself
to
Southern
California
by
myself,
no
friends
or
family
in
tow
once
I
was
there.
I
worked
hard
I
had
a
full
plate.
I
put
myself
through
undergraduate
and
graduate
school
I
worked
through
graduate
school
as
an
intern
for
the
city
of
Laguna
Hills,
the
city,
Manhattan
Beach,
and
the
Compton
justice
court.
J
I
learned
a
lot
about
municipalities
and
government
in
those
jobs,
I
learned
about
policies
and
how
ordinances
affect
business,
employees
and
residents.
However,
the
job
that
really
paid
the
bills
and
taught
me
really
more,
the
most
about
human
nature
was
being
a
waitress
and
it
came
with
a
great
gig.
It
was
a
free
meal.
J
Every
shift
once
I
completed
graduate
school
with
my
master's
degree
in
public
administration,
I
wanted
to
return
to
Utah
I
wanted
to
come
back
to
a
city
that
was
bustling
and
vibrant,
open
and
inclusive
and
diverse
and
I
chose
Salt
Lake
City
I've
lived
here
for
23
years.
It's
where
I
work
on
property
raise.
My
family
spend
my
money.
It's
where
I
call
home.
My
momma
raised
me
to
be
independent,
hardworking
and
a
good
citizen
and
I'm
raising
my
children
the
same
way.
The
challenge
is:
I've
got
two
children
in
college,
both
full-time
at
you.
J
They
struggle
on
student
wages
to
find
in
pendant,
safe,
affordable
housing.
My
mama
always
wanted
us
to
have
housing,
and
so
I'm
really
excited
about
the
work
that
the
council
is
doing
to
help
individuals,
just
like
my
children,
create
affordable,
independent
housing
situations
so
that
they
can
both
educate
here,
work
here
and
also
live
here
independently.
It's
personal
to
me
to
make
sure
that
my
children
live
independently
on
their
own,
but
it
also
is
important,
I
believe
to
the
city's
economic
health.
My
mama
also
taught
me
that
life
comes
with
tremendous
challenges.
J
J
I
had
to
redirect
my
focus
from
pain
and
fear
to
finding
solutions
and
to
learn
from
my
experience,
although
I'd
never
wish
cancer
on
anyone,
it
was
an
amazing
teacher.
It
taught
me
to
compromise.
It
taught
me
compassion.
It
taught
me
about
asking
for
help
and
resilience,
persistence
and
the
power
of
the
mind
and
determination.
I've
had
other
unexpected
teachers.
In
my
life,
a
man
named
Marv
who
I
met
just
across
the
street
in
front
of
my
building.
J
Dominion
energy
Marv
had
one
sock
on,
and
one
barefoot
and
it
was
28
30
degrees
outside
Marv,
clearly
needed
shoes,
but
he
was
also
in
need
of
a
tremendous
amount
of
other
resources
just
to
meet
his
basic
needs.
I
was
able
to
share
with
Marv
information
about
the
road
home
st.
Vincent's.
The
fourth
Street
clinic
Marv
taught
me
that
our
friends
who
are
experiencing
homelessness
don't
always
know
where
to
get
help
that's
already
available
in
the
city.
J
It's
really
a
critical
need
to
make
sure
individuals
like
Marv
get
the
information
they
need
to
get
the
help.
They
need
I'm
so
very
proud
of
the
work
the
council's
doing
and
continues
to
do
even
up
so
far
as
yesterday
to
help
individuals
like
Marv
to
find
the
resources
they
need.
Those
individuals
experiencing
homelessness
and
food
insecurity.
I
want
to
join
the
City
Council
and
continue
this
good
work
and
do
so
with
understanding
and
compassion.
My
story
started
with
my
mama
and
I'd
like
to
end
it
with
my
mama.
J
As
well
in
her
last
three
years
of
life,
she
was
very
sick
and
my
sister
and
I
came
together
to
take
care
of
her.
We
had
to
collaborate
with
many
resources,
doctors,
medical
facilities,
my
other
siblings
and
each
other.
To
make
sure
my
mama
got
the
care
she
needed.
I
was
often
reminded
that
the
bigger
picture
was
not
about
me
and
I
had
to
compromise
at
times
what
I
wanted
to
ensure
my
mama
got
the
care
she
needed.
It
was
one
of
the
most
rewarding
and
challenging
times
of
my
life.

counselors.
If

and
serving
the
homeless.
You

at
the
women's
shelter
donating
what
I

educating
my
daughter
and
what
we

serve
those
in
our
community
that
have
limited
options.
You

field
day
and
Liberty

the
threads
of
social

information
to

apartments
and
the
motels
on
State

You

I'd
like
to
voice
my

Am
these
comments
are
from
the
public
feedback
page
for
this
opening
and
our
comments
coming
exclusively
from
district
5
residents
and
business
owners?
M
Longtime
resident
Kathy
Luke,
said
I've
gotten
to
know
mr.
Bartholomew
over
the
last
year,
and
although
we
have
had
some
heated
debates
over
the
mayoral
candidates
and
over
building
in
our
district,
he
has
been
civil,
respectful
and
engaging
he's
reached
out
on
several
occasions
to
get
my
opinion
recently.
If
I
had
any
questions
or
suggestions
during
a
Liberty
Wells
community
council
meeting,
he
has
never
been
dismissive
or
condescending
and
really
cares
about
every
single
resident
in
the
entire
district.
M
Meaghan
Bueller
said
that
I'm,
a
consensus-builder,
Denise
Smith,
said
I
have
observes
acts
dedication
to
Salt
Lake,
as
he
seeks
the
best
for
the
town.
He
is
a
person
of
the
highest
integrity
and
you
can
depend
on
his
word.
He
is
selfless
in
his
drive
for
creating
the
best
outcomes
for
the
city.
Minority
partner
of
Nate
Wade
Subaru,
Rob
Berman,
said
as
a
partner
in
Salt
Lake
City
business
for
over
40
years.
I
know
the
value
of
people
who
truly
care
about
the
place
that
they
live
and
work.
M
Zach
is
driven
to
improve
the
community
feel
of
Salt
Lake.
He
has
done
that
in
the
neighborhood
that
he
resides
and
I'm
sure
he
would
be
capable
to
carry
that
same
degree
of
enthusiasm
to
the
whole
city.
I
really
appreciate
my
the
comments
from
my
neighbors
that
they
made
him
on
behalf.
That
said,
I
have
a
vision
for
district
5,
Harvard
scholar,
Rosabeth
Moss
Kanter,
said
a
vision
is
not
just
a
picture
of
what
could
be.
M
It
is
an
appeal
to
our
better
selves,
a
call
to
become
something
more
district
5
can
be
more
wonderful
than
it
already
is.
This
vision
includes
forming
a
long-term
plan
to
bring
a
modern
community
center
to
the
area
similar
to
the
Northwest
recreation
center.
This
would
include
childcare,
aquatics
camps
classes,
fitness
and
library
options.
My
vision
includes
a
focus
on
increasing
bike
and
walkability
of
the
neighborhoods,
which
would
allow
residents
more
access
to
services,
including
east,
to
west
byways.
M
I
want
to
collaborate
with
this
council
on
looking
at
a
tactical
rezoning
of
areas
along
the
State
Street
corridor
to
foster
more
housing
development
that
would
mitigate
the
cost
of
housing
while
allowing
developers
to
have
a
financially
viable
development
at
a
district,
five
and
six
council
debate
a
few
years
ago,
a
rap
and
now
mayor,
said
something
that
has
stayed
with
me.
She
said
something
along
the
lines
that
we
need
our
communities
to
interface
with
Salt
Lake
City
and
the
programs.
We
are
working
on
much
sooner
in
the
process.
This
impacted
me.
M
What
she
was
saying
was
that
we,
as
residents
of
Salt
Lake,
need
to
be
more
engaged
and
in
front
of
issues.
I
want
to
work
with
this
council
to
help
the
community
learn
how
to
better
interface
with
city
government
so
that
their
voices
can
be
heard
before
decisions
are
made
and
we
need
more
trees
and
better
air,
currently
I'm,
the
vice
chair
of
the
Liberty
Wells
Community
Council
and
chair
of
the
British
today,
British
field,
a
committee
that
brings
in
most
of
the
council's
operational
funds.
M
During
my
work
with
the
Community
Council,
we
have
successfully
advocated
for
the
upcoming
restoration
of
the
Seven
canyons
fountain.
We
have
called
public
safety
meetings
to
address
health
issues
in
the
neighbourhood,
sent
numerous
letters
to
the
mayor
and
this
body
regarding
a
multitude
of
developments
and
issues
faced
in
our
community.
To
be
blunt,
I'm,
educated
and
aware
of
the
issues
and
nuances
of
district
5
in
Salt
Lake
City
I
am
an
educator.
I
teach
classes
at
the
University
of
Utah,
with
focus
in
the
medical
field
in
teaching.
M
Thousands
of
students
in
my
career
I've
learned
a
major
truth.
This
truth
is
that
now
and
again,
we
all
need
a
hand
up
in
life.
My
desire
is
to
teach
others
how
to
lift
their
neighbors
friends
and
those
in
need
up
as
District
five
Council.
This
will
be
my
fundamental
precept
to
advocate
for
others
and
pull
up
as
many
people
as
you
can
to
build
an
ever
better
community.
M
B
H
Good
afternoon,
council
members
and
thank
you
for
your
service
to
Salt
Lake
City,
my
name
is
Darren
mano
and
I'm
humbled
by
the
caliber
of
people
in
this
room.
Your
decision
will
not
be
easy
on
this
day.
In
1942,
two
years
after
my
home
in
the
ball
park,
neighborhood
was
built.
My
grandmother
was
living
in
California
and
pregnant
with
her
third
child,
my
father
who's
in
the
audience
on
February
19th
of
that
year,
President
Roosevelt
signed
executive
order,
9066,
which
is
what
we
now
know.
H
As
the
Japanese
internment,
my
grandparents
chose
to
leave
California
voluntarily
in
order
to
avoid
the
camps
and
they
sold
things
for
pennies
on
the
dollar
fact
what
they
could
into
their
truck
and
left
the
rest
behind.
In
my
grandma's
personal
history,
she
wrote.
We
just
left
our
Christmas
lights
on
the
shelves
in
the
closet,
because
we
didn't
think
we
would
have
another
Christmas.
H
Now
this
story
is
tragic,
but
it
does
have
a
silver
lining,
though
they
had
to
rebuild
their
lives
from
nothing.
My
grandparents
found
a
warm
welcoming
and
safe
community
here
in
Utah
and
though
I
do
not
always
agree
with
our
state
leadership.
I
got
chills
when
I
heard
governor
Herbert's
October
24th
letter
to
President
Trump,
in
which
he
wrote
I
encourage
you
to
allow
us
to
accept
more
international
refugees
in
Utah.
Those
refugees
who
are
resettled
in
Utah
become
integrated
and
accepted
into
our
communities.
H
They
become
productive
employees
and
responsible
citizens
and
I
was
again
proud
of
my
leaders
on
Friday.
When
I
read
in
the
Tribune
that
mayor
Mendenhall,
this
City
Council
had
moved
forward
with
opening
a
temporary
emergency
overflow
shelter
to
provide
safety
from
the
cold
for
our
neighbors
experiencing
homelessness.
Thank
you
for
doing
that.
I
am
motivated
to
serve
my
community
because
I
want
to
help
people
I
want
to
help
the
new
Americans
who
are
rebuilding
their
lives
in
our
country.
H
I
want
to
help
our
neighbors,
who
are
working
full-time
jobs,
but
still
struggling
to
find
affordable
housing
I
want
to
help
the
small
business
owners
who,
like
myself,
know
that
Salt
Lake
City
is
the
best
place
to
start
and
grow
a
business
and
I
want
to
help
our
dedicated
city,
employees
and
departments
like
planning,
transportation
parks
and
the
RDA
who
are
trying
to
build
a
Salt
Lake.
That
is
more
vibrant,
safe
walkable,
sustainable,
diverse
and
beautiful
Salt.
H
Lake
City
is
already
an
amazing
place,
but
it
can
be
even
better
and
I
want
to
help
build
that,
having
served
on
the
Community
Council,
the
Redevelopment,
Advisory
Committee
and
now
the
Planning
Commission,
and
having
been
educated
in
architecture
at
the
University
of
Utah
and
Harvard
University
founded
and
built
an
architecture
firm
and
taught
University
courses
in
architecture
and
urban
design.
I
understand,
City,
Planning
and
I
understand
the
effects
both
positive
and
negative,
that
local
government
has
on
the
way
a
city
grows.
H
The
decisions
you
make
as
an
RDA
board
and
as
a
city
council
have
a
direct
impact
on
what
our
city
will
look
like
for
generations
to
come.
I
get
excited
when
I
walk
through
neighborhoods,
like
central
ninth
sugarhouse,
the
avenues
or
ninth
and
ninth
I
get
excited
when
I
see
buildings
that
address
the
street
activate
the
street
fun
provide
public
plazas.
H
We
can
build
those
and
other
areas
into
vibrant
urban
nodes,
each
with
their
own
unique
character.
I
see
a
future
Salt
Lake
City,
where
residents
from
dad
Duggan's
district,
we'll
hop
onto
that
high
frequency
bus
or
ride
their
bike
down
the
nine
line
trail
to
get
over
to
a
drew
Johnston's
district
for
dinner
on
a
Friday
night,
because
ninth
West
will
become
a
hub
of
authentic
local
restaurants
or
a
Salt
Lake
City,
where
residents
from
Amy
Fowler's
district
will
take
a
direct
streetcar
system.
H
All
the
way
up
to
James
Rodgers
is
district
for
a
night
out,
because
Fair
Park
will
have
turned
into
a
destination
for
local
arts,
culture
and
entertainment.
This
is
the
Salt
Lake
City
that
we
can
build
together.
The
decisions
we
make
today
will
determine,
if
that
happens
in
five
years,
50
years
or
never
I
understand
urban
design.
I
know
how
cities
function
and
I
am
ready
and
willing
to
serve
again.
Let
me
express
my
gratitude
for
your
service
to
our
city.
H
G
Afternoon
my
reason
for
applying
to
fill
a
District
five
position
is
to
represent
the
residents
and
businesses
of
district
5
I
have
no
preconceived
agenda
other
than
learning
the
needs
and
expectations
of
the
people
in
my
district
I
also
understand
that
a
member
of
the
council,
as
a
member
of
the
council
I,
would
be
making
decisions
concerning
the
rest
of
the
city.
I
think
I
have
the
background
and
experience
to
help
the
council
better
come
to
conclusions
about
the
matters
brought
before
them.
I
have
lived
in
the
district
for
53
years.
G
If
that
sounds
crazy
to
you,
it
sounds
crazy
to
me,
too.
I
moved
to
Salt
Lake
as
a
student
at
the
University
of
Utah,
when
my
first
husband
was
killed
and
there
was
an
insurance
settlement.
I
purchased
a
four-plex
in
district
5
that
is
next
door
to
my
home
and
then
bought
the
house
next
door.
During
the
time
I've
been
involved
in
community
activities.
I
was
one
of
the
signers
of
the
Articles
of
Incorporation
for
the
first
Neighborhood
Housing
Services
in
leased
East
Liberty
Park.
G
At
that
time
we
were
instrumental
in
getting
the
area
down
zone
from
our
for
to
our
to
stabilizing
the
neighborhood
and
giving
residents
a
way
to
upgrade.
Existing
housing
were
some
of
the
things
that
HS
enabled
residents
to
do
I'm
concerned
now,
with
the
same
issues,
district
5
is
made
up
of
distinct
neighborhoods.
That
should
be
maintained.
The
reasons
people
move
here
is
because
they,
like
the
emotional
climate
of
our
neighborhoods
and
of
the
city.
G
Existing
housing
should
be
maintained
if
possible.
I
understand
there
are
times
when
old
has
to
be
traded
in
for
new,
but
most
existing
housing
is
built
far
better
than
we
could
ever
afford
to
build
new.
The
current
move
to
home
gardening
and
growing
your
own
food
isn't
new
I've
seen
it
come
and
go
at
least
three
times
in
my
time
in
Salt,
Lake
City
as
an
avid
gardener,
I
support
this
effort,
and
this
is
something
that
our
neighborhoods
lend
support
and
it
helps
to
welcome
new
members
into
the
neighborhood.
G
The
most
important
thing
I
think
I
can
bring
to
the
council
is
a
wide
variety
of
experience
and
knowledge.
During
my
time,
at
the
University
of
Utah
was
a
member
of
Union
Board,
the
student
governing
body
for
the
Student
Union
I
was
chair
of
the
program
committee
in
the
music
department.
I
was
president
of
the
marching
band
and
president
of
Tau
Beta
Sigma
Music
sorority.
These
experiences
taught
me
leadership
skills
and
how
to
navigate
politically.
In
the
early
1970s
I
was
a
two-time
candidate
for
the
Utah
House
of
Representatives.
G
I
was
not
elected
but
again
learned
how
government
works
and
how
to
campaign
and
talk
to
the
members
of
my
district
I
was
a
member
of
the
Tracey
aviaries.
This
an
advisory
board
in
this
position,
I
learned
how
people
who
make
decisions
have
to
balance
needs
once
and
available
budgets
for
several
years.
I
was
the
volunteer
coordinator
at
my
children's
elementary
school.
It
was
a
rewarding
experience
to
find
how
many
people
wanted
to
volunteer
but
didn't
know
how
or
were
just
waiting
to
be
asked.
G
I
was
an
outreach
worker
for
Salt
Lake
County
senior
volunteer
services.
I
was
an
assistant
scoutmaster
and
I
taught
junior
high
for
25
years.
These
experience
showed
me
the
vast
number
of
people
willing
and
prepared
to
volunteer
when
asked.
It
also
showed
me
that
our
young
people
are
good.
The
vast
majority
are
trying
their
very
best
to
do
the
right
thing
and
become
contributing
contributing
members
of
their
community.
I
worked
at
Snowbird
for
a
season
and
became
aware
of
the
impact
the
ski
and
recreation
industry
have
on
our
local
economy.
G
This
experience
also
gave
me
a
different
opinion
about
Airbnb
and
the
value
of
both
to
our
visitors
and
to
our
economy.
I
was
a
member
of
Mormon
symphony
until
it
was
changed
to
the
symphony
at
Temple,
Square
I
then
joined
Salt,
Lake
Symphony,
where
I
played
in
the
percussion
section
for
10
years
because
of
my
involvement
with
music
I'm
interested
in
the
arts
and
how
the
community
can
support
them.
All
of
these
things
would
help
me
provide
valuable
input
to
discussions
that
help
answer
questions
and
provide
solutions
to
problems.
G
As
a
member
of
the
council
also
like
to
add,
I've
raised
six
sons,
one
daughter,
a
navajo,
foster
daughter
and
taught
junior
high
band
for
25
years.
All
of
those
things
taught
me
patience
which
I
did
not
have
when
I
started
out,
and
they
also
taught
me
tolerance,
because
I
dealt
with
an
enormous
range
of
people
in
the
community,
both
where
I
taught
and
in
my
neighborhood.
Thank
you.
N
Hello
I
am
misty
case
no
I
think
I've
met
all
of
you
at
some
point
before
I
know.
Most
of
you
know
me
in
2016,
I
made
history
as
the
first
transgender
person
to
ever
run
for
the
United
States
Senate
bit.
Lesser-Known
is
I
actually
didn't
even
know
at
the
time
and
tell
you
know
after
I
won
the
primary
as
I
was
the
first
woman
to
ever
run
for
United
States
Senate
in
the
state
of
Utah
to
actually
appear
on
a
general
election
ballot.
I
double-checked
it
myself.
N
I
could
not
find
another
instance
of
a
woman's
day
appearing
on
general
election
about
not
eva's
a
minor
party.
You
know
so
I
thought
that
was
you
know
an
interesting
thing,
because
I,
certainly
when
I
was
growing
up,
I
certainly
never
expected
to
make
history.
I
grew
up
here
in
Salt,
Lake
City
I
was
born
in
Salt
Lake.
When
I
was
in
high
school
I
started
high
school
1999.
It
was
actually
I
actually
started
at
East
High,
but
I
graduated
from
West,
but
in
1999
I've.
N
You
know
I
was
kind
of
dealing
with
my
issues
of
being
trans
like
and
it
wasn't
Salt
Lake
City,
you
know,
might
have
this
reputation
for
being
this
welcoming
community.
Now
in
1999,
you
know
in
high
school,
you
know
they
called
Salt
Lake
City,
the
most
homophobic
city
in
the
entire
country.
You
know
to
be
a
queer
person
or
LGBT
person
in
a
high
school
in
Salt,
Lake
City.
You
know
they
were
as
controversial
to
have.
You
know.
Non-Academic
clubs
I
believe
the
City
Council
the
time
actually
banned
them.
N
You
know-
and
that's
you
know
to
see
where
the
city
has
grown-
to
see
where
we
are
now
in
2020
is
very
encouraging,
but
there
is
a
lot
more
work
to
be
done.
You
know,
I
have
a
very
different
background
from
a
lot
of
people.
I
am
more
of
a
working-class
person.
I
am
a
cashier
at
a
grocery
store.
I,
you
know
see
things
more
from
a
working-class
perspective.
I
do
not
own
a
car.
I
have
never
owned
a
car
I
get
through
dumo
I
get
my
primary
mode.
Transportation
is
my
legs.
N
Sometimes
I
give
rights
from
people
a
lot
of
times.
I
will
take
public
transit.
So
when
you
talk
about
issues
affecting
to
pedestrians,
we
talk
about
issues
such
as
public
transit,
I'm,
a
person
that
has
firsthand
daily
experience
with
those
issues.
You
know
it's
I
think
it's
an
important
perspective
that
I
think
is
often
missing
from
City
Council's
like
this,
because
they
make
decisions
that
are
affect
pedestrians,
in
fact,
public
transit
people
without
having
you
know
anybody
with
like
a
daily
experience
that
I
think
that
would
be
an
important
voice.
That
is
often
unheard.
N
You
know.
Sometimes,
when
we
talk
about
issues
of
homelessness,
you
know
I'm
a
transgender
person,
20
percent
of
transgender
people
in
this
country
have
experienced
homelessness
at
some
point
in
their
lives.
I.
You
know,
I've
lived
with
my
mother
right
now.
I've
lived
with
my
mother,
my
entire
adult
life
in
the
same
house
like
that's.
Why
I
registered
and
registered
vote
you
know
and
like
just
like
guess
what
you
call
Central
City
Liberty
Wells,
that
is,
you
know,
yo
I,
like
said
I,
had
my
Sid
living
situation
meant
a
little
different.
N
N
You
know
I
think
when
we
talk
about
you
know
when
I
ran
for
US
Senate.
One
of
the
most
important
things
I
learned
was
the
need
for
representation.
The
value
of
having
a
possibility
model
I've
met
a
lot
of
people
I've
through
that
run
and
inspired
a
lot
of
people.
A
lot
of
people
have
told
me
they
ran
for
office
just
because
they
saw
me
that
I
was
running
in
Virginia.
There
is
a
woman
named
Anna
korone.
N
She
is
the
first
and
currently
only
transgender
person
to
serve
on
a
state
legislature
when
she
launched
her
campaign.
She
called
me
on
the
phone
I
talked
to
her
for
an
hour
and
gave
her
a
the
advice.
I
could
give
because
she
wanted
to
run
and
she
saw
that
it
was
possible,
but
by
my
run
and
now
she
is
the
first
and
only
transgender
person
elected
to
a
state
legislature.
I
would
liked
the
opportunity
to
be
appointed
to
the
City
Council,
because
I
think
transgender
people
are
underrepresented
in
all
levels
of
government.
N
In
Salt
Lake,
City's
history.
There
has
never
been
a
transgender
person
on
the
City,
Council
and
I
think
it
is
time.
Certainly
when
I
was
younger.
I
certainly
would
have
liked
to
have
a
possibility
model
to
know
that
it
is
okay
to
be.
Trans.
I
would
appreciate
the
opportunity
of
service
council.
If
you
appoint
me
to
this
position,
it
would
be
the
greatest
honor
of
my
life.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you.
O
All
right
good
afternoon,
Council
I'm
Alexander,
Zahara,
I'm,
32
years
old,
it's
important
because
that's
the
median
age
of
a
Salt
Lake
City
resident
right
now,
meaning
half
of
the
folks
in
our
city
are
actually
younger
than
me.
I'm,
a
data
analyst,
a
husband,
a
competitive
youth
soccer
coach
for
a
Salt
Lake
City
based
club
I'm,
a
proud
resident
of
Salt
Lake
City
I
grew
up
in
wine
country
in
a
small
town
north
of
San
Francisco
California
growing
up
among
the
redwoods
and
near
the
ocean.
O
O
F
O
I
combined
information
for
the
state
health
department,
the
past
two
years,
I've
worked
for
behavioral
health
services
at
Salt,
Lake
County.
These
experiences
have
brought
my
attention
to
the
power
of
working
at
a
grassroots
level
to
address
the
needs
of
residents.
I
believe
that
when
people
are
informed,
they
are
empowered
to
make
the
best
decisions
for
themselves
and
succinct
data
is
part
of
that.
I
believe
that
my
skills
will
allow
me
to
take
a
complex
idea
or
methodology
and
in
good
faith,
share
simplified
approachable
version
with
an
audience
with
my
professional
background.
O
I
have
a
strong
appreciation
to
detail,
but
I'm,
always
a
big-picture
type
of
person.
I
often
have
advancement
in
progress
on
my
mind
and
can
be
frank
about
my
feelings
at
times
with
that
being
said,
equality
and
fairness
are
my
most
driving
principles
as
part
of
the
City
Council.
A
major
goal
of
mine
is
to
be
active
and
informed.
A
member
of
the
RDA
I
think
the
role
of
the
City
Council,
acting
as
the
RDA
board,
will
mold
and
transform
Salt
Lake
City
for
years
to
come.
O
I
believe
there
are
steps
that
can
be
taken
to
improve
life
for
everyone.
I
have
a
critical
and
analytical
mind
and
can
be
bothered
by
inefficiency,
I
believe
I
have
a
natural
feel
for
what
is
needed
to
make
things
function
in
efficient
manner.
In
my
neighborhood
I've
noticed
that
we
need
to
balance
multiple
housing
types,
but
need
to
do
so
in
a
safe
and
sustainable
way.
There's
an
apartment
building
on
my
block
that
has
some
less-than-ideal
activities
going
on
there
and
it's
seeming
like
areas
in
Salt,
Lake
City.
O
We
need
to
invest
in
these
sorts
of
communities,
some
of
my
favorite
examples
of
city,
sponsored
events
have
been
yappy
hour
and
the
Fisher
mansion
tours
because
they
help
to
foster
this
sense
of
community
I,
enjoy
learning
about
these
historic
properties
like
Fisher
mansion,
the
Wasatch
Springs
plunge
being
the
oldest
hot
springs,
building
up
in
the
northern
part
of
the
city,
as
well
as
the
artesian
wells
around
Liberty
Park,
and
by
the
way.
Thank
you
for
the
current
improvements
on
the
800
South
artesian.
Well,
that's
gonna,
be
really
nice.
O
I
also
know
that
parlays
Creek
runs
underground.
Less
than
half
half
a
block
from
my
house
and
I
appreciate
the
efforts
to
see
waterways
like
that
opened
up
for
the
public
to
see
as
well.
My
interest
in
these
places
stems
from
a
desire
to
build
community
around
points
of
interest
in
Salt
Lake.
City
I
would
like
to
express
my
excitement
for
this
opportunity,
and
thank
you
all
for
your
time.
I
would
have
regretted
not
applying
for
this
position
that
I
feel
I
would
be
able
to
thrive
in.
O
P
Good
afternoon,
mr.
chairman
council,
members
mayor,
my
name
is
George
Chapman
and
I
would
love
to
be
on
the
City
Council.
Even
if
I'm
not,
though
I
know
the
issues
you
know
me
I,
you
know
that
I
want
the
issues
to
be
taken.
Care
of
and
I've
had
pretty
good
luck
over
the
last
10
years,
working
with
the
public
servants
of
this
city.
Trying
to
solve
the
problems
of
this
city.
I
know
the
issues
in
district
5,
specifically
State
Street
is
a
lot
like
North
temple
on
crime,
magnet
motels.
P
In
fact,
Main
Street
Motel
is
owned
by
the
same
owner
of
the
Gateway
Inn
on
North
Temple,
which
were
having
a
big
problem
with
the
mayor's
civil
penalty.
Ordinance
was
a
great
step
forward,
but
we
need
to
do
more
with
the
legislature
like
Colorado
did
that
was
able
to
get
rid
of
a
lot
of
their
crime
magnet
motels.
We
also
have
problems
with
State
Street
CRA
kind
of
slow
five
years
ago
started
the
process
on
the
RTA
expansion
for
State
Street,
and
it's
taken
five
years
to
get
to
step
two.
P
You
cut
permits
from
120
days
to
60
days,
I
think
in
the
last
couple
of
years,
but
I
think
it
needs
to
go
down
even
further
and
you
need
personnel
for
that.
But
I
want
State
Street
to
be
speeded
up
on
redevelopment
and
again
no
temple
should
be
the
lesson
for
that.
I
also
think
we
need
to
reroute
the
green
line
on
to
400,
West
and
I'm,
hoping
that
the
inland
port
as
much
as
a
problem
it
is
developing
into
inland
port
tack.
P
Increment
can
be
used
for
that
should
be
used
for
that
and
I'll
give
you
an
honest
issue
there.
The
legislators
are
already
thinking
about
that,
so
you
should
be
talking
to
them
about
it.
The
issues
in
district
5
also
include
demolition.
Ordinance
needs
to
be
changed.
The
whole
city
has
a
problem.
District
1,
2,
4,
&
5,
have
problems
with
vacant,
buildings
boarded
up
buildings
and
there's
no
reason
why
salt
lake
city
should
own
a
building
for
more
than
a
year,
without
it
being
either
torn
down
or
sold
to
somebody
else.
P
We
should
not
be
owning
all
those
properties,
the
other
problems
on,
for
instance,
district
7,
which
applies
to
district
5.
We
need
an
Eastside
precinct,
but
we
need
to
increase
the
land
budget
fast
or
we're
going
to
end
up
like
we
did
with
the
downtown
Park
nowhere.
So
please
increase
the
land
budget
for
the
Sai
precinct.
We
also
need
to
protect
small
businesses
in
Salt
Lake
City,
but
in
Salt
Lake
City,
the
11th
East
corridor,
the
last
remaining
sugarhouse
eclectic
businesses
are
going
to
go
bankrupt
in
a
few
months.
P
If
we
don't
do
something
about
it
because
of
the
road
construction
and
speaking
of
road
construction.
I
still
think
that
the
west
side
of
Salt
Lake
City
is
not
getting
the
road
repair
that
they
should
get
I'm.
Looking
at
the
map
from
a
couple
of
weeks
ago,
your
meaning
that
showed
the
west
side
not
getting
that
much,
we
need
more
maintenance.
More
than
complete
Road
reconstruction.
P
There
are
some
roads
that
are
just.
If
you
want
mass
transit,
you
go
bouncy
bouncy
bouncy
on
the
bus
that
doesn't
make
sense
that
doesn't
encourage
mass
transit
use.
So
I'd
like
to
see
more
mass
transit
used
and
I've
been
an
advocate
for
more
mass
transit
used
for
10
years.
Unfortunately,
UTA
is
pushing
on
projects
right
now,
we're
down
100
drivers
and
we
can't
expand
service
and
that's
wrong.
Thank
you
for
expanding
service
on
the
nine
line.
I
was
pleasantly
surprised
about
that.
I
was
really
surprised
about
that.
P
The
other
issues,
of
course,
are
there
are
a
whole
bunch
of
issues.
You
know.
I
know
these
issues,
I
do
the
blog
at
George
Hammond
on
yet
but
I
say
something
really
just
out
there.
I
want
to
be
on
the
council,
but
I
also
want
Rick
Graham
to
work.
For
me
again,
Rick
Graham
is
the
ultimate
public
servant.
I
mean
I.
Remember
almost
ten
years
ago,
if
I
had
a
problem,
anybody
had
a
problem.
They
call
up
her
Graham
he'd
jump
on
it
and
try
and
fix
it.
P
B
P
Counsel
before
I
start
on
my
qualifications,
I
would
like
to
mention
just
something:
I've
observed
today
and
I
hope
you've
observer
to
what
a
tremendous
pool
of
applicants
we
have
here
and
I'm
not
I'm
thoroughly.
Amazed
and
I
hope
that
all
of
us,
including
me,
if
we
don't
get
this
seat,
we'll
continue
to
participate
in
our
government.
This
is
very
encouraging
and
I
believe
we're
gonna
find
some
solutions.
I
moved
here.
44
years
ago,
I
was
23
years
old.
P
I
came
here
with
a
faith-based
community
that
operated
one
of
the
first
homeless
shelters
in
Salt,
Lake
City,
and
we
actually,
our
pastor,
took
over
a
building
that
had
been
occupied
by
VOA
Andrew
councilman
Johnston
in
1910,
and
it
had
been.
It
had
been
occupied
by
the
Salvation
Army
in
1940s
and
50s,
and
my
community
that
I
was
with
from
California,
was
called
the
order
of
the
lamb.
P
We
had
a
church
and
kitchen
on
the
main
floor.
We
had
married
couples
with
children
on
the
second
floor
and
single
men
on
the
third
floor
and
another
shelter
for
single
women
and
mothers
on
ninth
east
and
/.
South
I
changed
got
on
the
board
of
directors
of
Calvary
Chapel
of
Salt
Lake
City,
and
we
operated
a
homeless
shelter
for
single
women
and
single
mothers
for
a
total
of
11
years.
I
was
hands-on
involved
with
the
homeless,
and
then
I
was
on
the
board
of
directors.
P
For
teenager
at-risk
youth,
the
third
part
of
my
experience
was
I
am
still
to
this
day
for
20
years
involved
in
the
Utah
Hispanic
Democratic
caucus
I
have
here
a
button
with
the
picture
of
my
mentor,
Robert
Archie
Archuleta,
who
recently
passed
God
rest,
his
soul
and
Frank.
Cordova
was
one
of
my
primary
political
mentors
as
well.
P
I
have
been
a
public
school
teacher
for
14
years
and
I
have
also
been
I,
am
also
working
class
I,
think
mr.
snow
mentioned,
she's
working
class
I
have
been
working
class
in
terms
of
earning
a
living,
all
my
life
so
I'm,
very
empathetic
to
the
needs
of
the
Lord
look
class
and
the
homeless
and
the
minority
communities
and
the
young
people
that
interpret
that
are
at
risk
in
inner
prison.
That's
my
experience.
That's
experience,
I
bring
to
this
council
if
I'm.
P
If
I'm
chosen
and
I'm
well
acquainted
with
many
of
these
candidates,
they're
all
amazing
I
hope
I
can
be
amazing
too.
If
you
pick
me,
I
think
I've
covered
at
all.
Oh
there
are
specific
solutions:
I
will
bring
for
the
homeless
issue.
I
was
talking
with
chief
Brown
about
an
hour
and
a
half
a
man
who
cares
deeply
about
what's
affecting
and
making
people
homeless,
and
the
two
other
components
that
need
to
be
included
in
serving
the
homeless
are
employment,
programs
and
mental
health
and
substance
abuse,
recovery
programs.
P
Those
are
essential
and
I
was
also
with
the
Salt
Lake
City
Police
Department
I,
installed
over
250
solid
core
doors
on
the
west
side
to
prevent
break-in
I
installed,
500,
dead,
bolts
and
also
I
was
trained.
The
reason
I
will
serve
very
well
with
you.
I
was
trained
as
a
facilitator
by
the
United
States
Postal
Service
time.
B
Q
Thank
you
so
much
for
the
council
for
the
opportunity
to
participate
in
this
process.
My
name
is
Jenny
Hobbs
and
I
am
a
mother
eyeing,
a
pet
owner.
I
am
married
to
my
wonderful
partner
of
15
years.
Jared
and
I
am
an
entrepreneur
that
is
working
in
the
creation
of
new
technologies
to
increase
social
justice.
I
am
no
politician.
Participating
in
this
process
is
the
purple
portunity
for
me
to
have
a
chance
to
have
a
seat
at
a
table.
Q
Historically,
people
like
me
having
had
a
chance
to
participate
in
the
decision-making
process
and
I
feel
that
we
can
change
that
today.
This
is
the
part
where
I'm
supposed
to
be
sharing
with
you
all
the
things
that
I
have
done
in
our
community.
Well,
let
me
tell
you:
I
am
a
full
participant
in
our
community
helping
underserving
groups
donating
money.
My
time
and
effort,
I
am
in
our
life
to
the
LGTBQ
community.
Plus
community
and
I
were
to
support
organizations
that
care
for
the
homeless.
Q
I
also
work
with
the
LDS
Church
to
help
care
to
help
care
for
members
of
our
community.
In
my
current
position
and
I
work
with
organizations
that
work
to
further
social
justice
in
this
area
through
education,
like
the
inclusion
Center
for
community
and
justice,
doing
service,
for
others,
is
very
personal
for
me
because
many
times
I
have
been
at
the
receiving
end
of
those
actions.
I
have
learned
through
first-hand
experience
that
we
all
want
to
be
treated
with
dignity,
respect
and
kindness.
Q
My
agenda
is
simple
and
clear:
I
want
to
create
a
more
inclusive,
diverse
community,
because
I
want
to
create
spaces
for
minority
safe
spaces,
for
minorities
like
myself
and
I
also
want
to
fit
the
sidewalks
in
my
neighborhood,
because
I'm
planning
to
live
here
until
I'm
98
and
you
know
having
in
infrastructures
around
the
city
where
older
people
and
people
with
disabilities
can
have
better
mobility,
is
my
go-to
plan.
So
why
should
I
have
a
seat
at
the
table?
Well,
because
I
bring
a
different
lens
at
the
tip
to
the
table.
Q
My
intersectionalities
are
my
strengths.
I
am
a
black
latina
warming
who
emigrated
to
this
country
when
I
was
19
years
old
with
our
safety
net
and
could
not
speak
a
word
of
English
still
working
on
that
during
my
I
am
35
years.
Old
I
have
worked
in
many
positions,
but
the
most
memorable
positions
for
me
have
been
working
in
the
public
school
system
supporting
minority
families
as
well
as
organizations
that
advocate
for
the
protection
of
vulnerable
immigrants.
I
have
seen
firsthand
how
our
system
can
oppress,
vulnerable,
vulnerable,
vulnerable
groups
in
our
society.
Q
The
anger
that
I
have
felt
caused
by
the
injustice
that
I
have
witnesses.
Witness
was
what
has
fueled
me
to
gain
education
in
cultural
diversity,
organizational
communications
and
their
curriculum
curriculum
that
I'm,
currently
working
at
the
University
of
Utah,
is
an
NIC
studies
as
a
mother
of
two
boys
of
color
I
want
to
create
equity
and
a
safe
society
for
my
children
and
I
can
bring
my
expertise
on
how
to
put
a
stop
to
discriminate,
discriminatory
practices
for
people,
color,
women
and
others.
Q
Q
R
Thank
you
to
the
mayor,
City,
Council
and
staff
for
your
time
and
the
opportunity
to
speak
today,
I'm
honored,
to
be
considered
by
all
to
represent
district
5.
During
the
first
week
of
my
daughter's
kindergarten
years,
she
got
in
trouble
with
the
dress
code.
She
was
wearing
a
simple
little
jumper,
nothing
scandalous,
but
because
it
had
straps
and
was
considered
too
short,
she
was
called
out.
Her
teacher
was
just
doing
her
job,
but
Betty
was
shamed
in
front
of
the
class
and
she
was
forced
to
wear
a
baggy
t-shirt
for
the
rest
of
the
day.
R
She
was
intimidated
and
devastated
ultimately,
but
he
had
a
different
experience
than
many
dress
code
violators,
because
I'm
her
mama
and
I'm,
a
government
nerd
who
loves
working,
changed
the
legislative
process.
I
asked
Betty.
If
she
wanted
me
to
let
it
go
or
she
wanted
me
to
do
my
thing.
She
chose
the
latter.
The
amazing
late
Heather
Bennett
taught
me
that
the
dress
code
is
controlled
by
the
school
community.
Council
I
got
myself
elected
to
it
and
spent
the
rest
of
the
year
working
with
the
parents
and
teachers
to
remove
all
gender
specific
language.
R
We
eliminated
public
shaving,
shaming,
we
allowed
straps
I
didn't
get
everything
I
proposed
teachers
drew
a
hard
line
at
the
length
of
shorts,
but
that
experience
honed
my
coalition
building
skills
progress
through
compromise
with
is
the
legislative
process.
It's
a
dance
of
negotiation.
We've
formed
a
strong
relationship
with
that
teacher.
Despite
that
early
disagreement,
because
that's
how
we
roll
and
Emerson
Elementary
remains
with
a
much
approved,
dress
code
and
I
continue
to
serve
on
the
SEC
for
another
three
years.
R
I
share
that
story,
because
it
illustrates
my
approach
to
governance
and
my
ability
to
impact
statute.
As
an
advocate
I
am
so
impressed
by
my
colleagues
here
before
you
today
and
I.
Don't
envy
you
the
job
of
choosing
between
us?
If
you
appoint
me
as
your
colleague
I'll
strive
to
build
common
ground,
as
well
as
identify
creative
solutions
to
complex
problems
with
my
signature,
personal
brand
of
pragmatic,
progressivism,
hard
work,
friendliness
and
guts
I'm,
not
a
jerk
indeed,
I
would
be
honored
to
serve
with
you
by
the
end
of
my
presentation.
R
I
hope
you'll
feel
confident
that
my
skills,
experience
and
network
will
be
an
asset
to
your
work.
As
you
tackle
the
problems
and
opportunities
facing
Salt
Lake
in
your
districts,
I
have
knowledge
and
experience
in
all
levels
of
government
and
indeed
have
worked
with
all
of
you
on
a
number
of
issues.
Over
the
years,
I
understand
the
duties
and
responsibilities
of
the
City
Council.
If
pointed
I'll
hit
the
ground
running
and
I'm,
always
conscientious.
R
That
I
still
have
much
to
learn,
I
hope
to
work
with
y'all
on
clean
air,
east-west
equities,
smart
development,
densification
preservation,
transit,
affordable
housing,
jobs,
labor
and
trains,
trades,
improving,
permitting
and
yes,
I
would
love
to
bring
more
public
art
into
Salt.
Lake
City
in
the
arts
world
were
nothing
without
creativity,
I
adore,
creative,
multifaceted
solutions
that
yield
more
than
one
outcome.
R
One
of
the
first
projects
coming
out
for
the
council
in
2020
is
the
transportation
master
plan
I'd
like
to
see
an
approach
that
addresses
multimodal
transportation,
with
an
emphasis
on
public
transit,
particularly
I
hope
that
our
plan
will
address
better
east/west.
Commune
ability
I
think
it's
impossible
to
improve
our
West
East
equity
problems
if
it's
overly
difficult
and
time-consuming
to
get
from
one
side
of
the
city
to
another
I'm.
A
compulsive
doer
I
have
strong
relationships
across
the
state.
R
Salt
Lake
in
district
5
I've
long
been
someone
the
neighborhood
turns
to
when
they
need
help,
be
it
a
turning
signal
or
a
pothole
I'm.
An
effective
advocate
I've
worked
with
elected
officials
across
the
state
on
both
sides
of
the
aisle
on
everything,
from
LGBTQ
rights
and
gender
equality,
to
clean
air
and
affordable
housing
and,
of
course,
in
my
deep
and
burning
passion
for
the
humanities
and
arts.
R
If
appointed,
my
relationships
at
the
hill
will
be
an
asset
for
Salt
Lake
City,
as
we
work
to
maintain
local
control
of
our
land
use,
taxation
and
regulatory
authority.
I
also
understand
budgets
from
running
a
small,
not
a
small
business
and
a
small
nonprofit,
as
well
as
through
my
board
service,
where
I
might
have
an
addiction.
My
love
of
the
humanities
and
arts
is
truly
a
love
of
humanity
in
life.
It's
a
love
of
our
stories,
histories,
beliefs,
emotions
trials
and
values.
My
actual
artistic
training
is,
as
a
composer.
R
This
background
defines
my
approach
to
politics
as
I
write,
music.
There
are
rules
to
follow
rules
to
bend
rules
to
break
new
rules
to
create.
There
are
disparities
and
ideas
that
have
to
come
together
as
a
whole.
Sometimes
those
voices
find
beauty
through
consonants
others
distance.
Some
voices
need
to
be
elevated.
Some
need
balance.
Some
are
the
chorus.
Some
are
the
soloists.
Some
need
to
be
combined
with
other
voices
in
new
and
interesting
ways:
consensus,
balancing
diverse
voices
and
bridge-building.
R
What
I
do
as
a
composer
will
guide
my
approach
to
the
legislative
process
if
appointed
as
a
city
councillor.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
time
and
consideration
today.
This
decision
is
yours,
but
if
it
helps
I
am
supported
by
residents
of
the
district
and
you
have
before
you
a
letter.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
time
and
consideration
today.
P
Afternoon,
City
Council
members,
as
well
as
mayor
Mendenhall
in
my
resume
and
my
letter
of
introduction,
as
well
as
the
answers
to
their
written
questions.
I
refer
to
being
a
surety
bond
underwriter
many
times,
I'm
going
to
try
to
explain
what
that
is
and
try
to
tie
it
into
being
on
the
city
council.
A
bond
is
just
a
guarantee.
P
The
bond
company
ends
up
forfeiting
that
amount
of
money
right
when
I
said
I
in
the
right
surety
bonds,
the
surety
bonds
that
I
underwrite
our
guarantee
put
construction
contracts,
the
successful
completion
of
construction
contracts
and,
in
the
event
that
a
contractor
doesn't
finish,
the
is
defaulted
on
the
construction
contract,
the
bond
company,
or
we
end
up
paying.
So
you
can
see
that
if
we
make
a
bad
decision
on
the
bond,
it's
a
big
financial
consequence
and
when
I
said
I
was
an
underwriter.
That
just
means
asking
the
right
questions.
P
I
promise
I'm
going
to
tie
all
this
into
being
on
the
City
Council.
That
just
means
asking
the
right
questions.
So,
if
you're
underwriting
a
bail
bond,
you
might
want
to
know
what
crime
was
committed.
Have
they
been
in
jail
before?
What
kind
of
collateral
might
they
be
able
to
provide
to
the
bond
company
for
a
surety
bond
underwriter?
We
ask
questions
about
the
contractor
and
their
ability
to
finish
the
project
things
like
do.
They
have
the
money
the
cat
could
to
cashflow
the
project.
P
So
we
look
at
financial
statements,
we're
interested
in
their
prior
work
history.
So
what
they've
done
in
the
past?
We
ask
questions
about
prior
jobs,
they've
done
equipment
they
have
labor
or
subcontractors
and
so
forth,
and
we're
also
interested
in
their
character
in
the
event
that
there's
a
their
problems
on
the
job.
We
want
to
know
if
they're
going
to
stick
around
if
they're
going
to
walk
off
the
job.
P
So,
for
example,
if
I'm
looking
at
a
bond
for
a
new
library
I'm
going
to
the
contractor,
so
how
many
libraries
have
you
built
in
the
past?
What
size
worthy
have
you
had
problems
on
him?
Who
were
the
subcontractors,
those
kinds
of
things?
So
how
does
all
that
apply
to
being
on
the
City
Council?
First
I
have
a
working
knowledge
of
what's
important
for
a
successful
construction
project
and
a
Salt
Lake
City
continues
to
grow.
I
think
that
that
knowledge
would
be
helpful
in
the
City
Council.
P
Second
I
know
how
to
ask
questions
and
make
thoughtful
decisions
that
balance
sometimes
competing
interest
and
I.
Think
it
that's
at
the
very
core
of
being
on
the
city
council
asking
the
right
questions
and
making
decisions
that
balance
the
interest
of
all
the
parties.
I
have
the
same
concerns
and
passions
as
a
lot
of
the
other
people
here
today
for
air
quality
and
affordable
housing
and
diversity
and
infrastructure,
public
transportation
I
can
cover
all
those
as
well,
but
the
things
that
set
me
apart
are
my
knowledge
of
construction
and
my
ability
to
ask
questions.
A
Salt
lake
city
is
a
city
that
stands
by
all
of
us,
my
name's
grant
Miller,
and
if
you
look
at
my
application,
you'll
see
they
have
a
really
funny
name:
middle
name,
I'm
judges,
how
you
pronounce
that
one.
My
mother
wanted
to
give
me
a
name
that
was
reflective
of
the
fact
that
I'm,
both
Arab
and
American.
A
She
was
born
in
Bethlehem
on
the
west
bank
and
she
left
the
region
because
of
the
conflict.
She
ultimately
came
to.
United
States,
like
so
many
others,
do
in
search
of
a
safe
and
productive
life.
She
met
my
father
in
urban
forester
and
rural
wisconsin
and
they
started
a
family
when
I
was
a
year
old.
My
family
moved
westward
in
search
of
opportunity
and
we
found
it
here
in
Salt,
Lake
City
and
a
little
bungalow
on
Bryan
Avenue.
A
Other
communities
change
the
way
that
they
treated
us
because
of
the
racial
stigma.
It's
why
we
moved
back
to
Salt,
Lake
City.
It's
because
we
knew
that
Salt
Lake
City
was
the
city
that
would
stand
by
us.
My
parents
laid
the
foundation
that
enabled
me
to
go
to
law
school.
It
was
there
that
I
learned
the
importance
of
being
open-minded,
a
professional
discourse
to
understand
both
values
of
an
issue
and
to
appreciate
both
sides
of
that
issue.
A
I,
never
thought
I'd
wind
up
on
the
other
side
of
law
school
as
a
public
defender,
but
I
met
some
attorneys
as
a
first-year
law
student.
That
taught
me
the
importance
of
standing
in
a
corner
that
no
one
else
is
willing
to
stand
it,
because
only
when
you
stand
in
that
corner,
can
you
discover
a
person
whose
society
has
long
since
turned
their
back?
Was
now
facing
a
system
looking
to
extract
a
pound
of
flesh
in
which
they've
got
nothing
to
give
and
without
someone
in
their
corner
they
don't
stand
a
chance.
A
They
don't
stand
a
chance
to
get
to
resources,
to
get
to
recovery,
to
expand
that
window
of
opportunity.
I've
taken
that
value
set
of
community
outreach
and
taken
into
other
community
outreach
efforts.
I
joined
the
Young
Alumni
Association
Board,
where
we
create
scholarships
for
law
students,
I
joined
the
expungement
clinic
where
we
drafted
petitions
by
hand.
So
that
way
we
could
clear
records,
so
people
get
better
jobs
in
housing.
A
Now,
if
you
choose
me
for
City,
Council
you'll
find
me
to
be
open
minded
and
amicable
as
a
public
defender,
I've
been
no
stranger
to
fighting
the
difficult
fight.
I've
been
no
stranger
to
fighting
an
unpopular
fight.
Now
I
am
a
stranger
to
designing
city
flags
that
one
was
new
to
me,
but
I
did
my
best.
Now
it
was
standing
I'm
familiar
with
city
government,
as
well
as
a
law
student
I
interned
at
the
Utah
State
Senate
and
as
an
attorney
I've
dealt
with
the
city's
agencies
and
judiciary.
A
Now
we're
Salt
Lakers.
We
know
that
government
is
not
the
answer
to
all
of
our
problems,
but
we
do
know
that
if
we
streamline
our
resources,
we
can
better
provide
shelter
for
those
who
don't
have
it.
We
can
better
provide
housing
for
those
who
can't
afford
it,
and
by
doing
so,
we
will
create
opportunity
for
those
who
deserve
it,
because
Salt
Lake
City
stands
by
all
of
her
citizens.
Salt
Lake
City
stands
by
transgendered
individuals
who
don't
feel
safe
in
other
communities.
A
Salt
Lake
City
stands
by
refugees
who
are
looking
for
safe
harbor,
Salt
Lake
City
stood
by
a
young
urban
forester
from
Wisconsin
who
was
looking
for
a
job
Salt
Lake
City
stood
by
a
young
woman
from
the
West
Bank,
looking
for
a
safe
and
tolerant
community
to
raise
her
family
and
now
I'm
asking
you
I'm
asking
you
for
the
opportunity
to
stand
by
the
city
that
has
always
stood
by
me.
My
name
is
grant
Jed
Miller.
Thank
you.
D
Hello
councilmembers
first
I'd
like
to
thank
you
for
taking
the
time
to
consider
all
of
our
applications,
while
you've
had
significant
city-level
issues
to
manage
like
the
new
temporary
homeless,
shelter
and
sugar
house,
and
given
the
quality
and
number
of
the
candidates
that
the
council
has.
You
have
a
tough
decision
to
make.
I'm
a
community
leader,
a
scientist
and
an
educator
I
moved
to
Salt
Lake
City
in
2011
to
work
in
a
research
laboratory
at
the
University
of
Utah
and,
like
so
many
others
stayed
for
the
quality
of
life.
D
Here
in
this
city,
I
became
a
scientist
because
I
wanted
to
work
on
biomedical
research,
questions
that
could
affect
positive
change
in
people's
lives.
Of
course,
medical
care
is
critically
important,
but
it's
things
like
the
affordability
and
stability
of
our
housing,
the
safety
of
our
neighborhoods
access
to
healthy
food,
the
green
spaces
we
play
in
good
jobs
with
fair
pay.
These
are
some
of
the
things
that
can
keep
us
healthy
in
the
first
place.
D
That
was
immediately
made
clear
to
me
when
I
moved
to
the
ball
park
neighborhood
in
2014
and
realized
that
the
house
across
the
street
was
occupied
by
drug
dealers.
I
quickly
helped
revive
a
neighborhood
watch
group
with
long-term
residents
of
the
community.
After
the
drug
dealers
were
arrested
and
evicted,
the
difference
in
our
area
of
the
neighborhood
was
palpable
and
immediate.
We
felt
safer
and
I
wanted
to
make
it
happen
again.
I
joined
the
ball
/
community
council
and
served
as
vice-chair
from
2015
to
2018.
D
Then
chair
for
the
past
two
years,
while
I've
been
in
leadership,
we've
dealt
with
some
significant
changes
to
our
neighborhood,
including
rapid
population,
growth,
specific
to
our
side
of
district
5,
the
affects
of
operation,
Rio
Grande,
a
new
homeless,
Resource
Center
and
in
the
past
two
years
in
particular
a
significant
amount
of
violent
crime.
After
the
fourth
homicide
in
less
than
a
year
within
eight
block
area
of
our
neighborhood
I
believed
we
needed
to
mount
a
community
response.
D
I
wrote
and
circulated
an
anti-violence
letter
collecting
signatures
from
63
elected
officials,
some
of
yourselves
community
stakeholders,
small
business
owners
and
residents,
I'm,
not
going
to
argue
that
that
letter
and
subsequent
public
meetings
have
effectively
solved
all
of
our
communities
quality
of
life
issues,
but
our
neighborhood
has
received
needed
attention
and
increased
police
president's
presence.
Thank
you.
I
continue
to
advocate
with
the
central
ninth
Community
Council
on
policies
that
could
shift
the
built
environment
in
our
neighborhood
to
make
it
less
hospitable
to
crime.
D
I've
made
other
allies
by
soliciting
the
support
of
local
school
principals
and
the
Utah
pride
Center,
well
submitting
a
joint
application
for
a
neighborhood
by
way
on
Kensington
Avenue
with
the
liberty,
Wells
community
council,
as
an
educator
I've
also
looked
for
opportunities
to
address
our
city's
problems.
More
broadly,
for
example,
I
served
on
then
mayor
elect
Mendenhall's
transition,
subgroup
on
homeless
services,
where
I
advocated
for
accessible
pedestrian
infrastructure
in
2018
I
worked
with
Utah
representative
Joel
Briscoe
to
pass
an
education
appropriation
to
develop
a
science-based
curriculum
to
teach
high
school
students
about
the
opioid
crisis.
D
Those
education
materials
now
exist
and
are
freely
available
for
teachers
to
use
to
teach
about
how
opioids
work
in
the
body
and
brain
and
the
phenomenon
of
addiction
and
I
would
like
to
think
they're
making
a
difference.
You
need
to
both
believe
in
the
mission
and
love
the
work
to
effectively
lead
community
meetings.
I
want
to
serve
district
5
on
city
council,
because
it
would
allow
more
opportunities
to
work
on
the
same
issues
that
affect
daily
living
in
our
neighborhoods
infrastructure,
housing,
affordability
and
density.
Walkability
and
safety.
D
I
also
want
to
be
part
of
the
group
problem
solving
and
the
consensus
building
to
improve
our
city
environment
for
all
residents,
because
the
community
works
that
I've
engaged
in
since
I
moved
to
ball
park
has
been
some
of
the
most
emotionally
rewarding
work.
I've
ever
done,
I
love,
building
relationships
and
giving
people
a
voice
in
the
process.
I
love,
Salt,
Lake,
City
and
the
lives
we
get
to
live
in.
It.
D
E
Hello,
my
name
is
Sarah
real
and
I
am
here
today
as
a
ball
park
resident
an
educator,
a
public
lands
advocate
a
digital
marketing
geek,
a
daughter
in
a
salt
lake
of
a
family
of
four
girls,
and
after
watching
the
latest
Little
Women.
Yesterday
it
our
household
was
truly
a
modern
day
little
woman
and
I'm,
obviously
Joe
self-proclaimed,
but
most
importantly,
I
am
here
as
a
lover
of
this
great
city
rather
than
seeking
power
or
prestige
I'm
here
with
the
desire
to
make
our
city
a
place
for
all
to
thrive.
E
As
mentioned
in
my
application,
if
appointed
my
priorities
are
aligned
with
those
of
the
council.
I
want
the
opportunity
to
contribute
to
your
work,
solving
everything
from
the
complex
issues
of
homelessness,
creating
conditions
for
robust
economic
development
to
tackling
the
mundane
but
necessary
issues
of
potholes
and
snow
removal.
E
I
consider
myself
a
connector
survey,
any
of
my
colleagues,
friends
bosses
or
students,
and
they
will
tell
you
how
much
I
love
bringing
people
together
to
solve
problems
and
create
community
I,
see
my
contribution
to
the
council
as
someone
who
can
bring
people
together
to
accomplish
significant
objectives
and
consider
it.
One
of
my
greatest
strengths
I
find
great
pleasure
in
working
collaboratively,
accomplishing
goals
while
also
having
fun
and
making
sure
everyone
feels
good
about
their
role
and
contributions.
I
am
also
serious
about
policy.
E
My
Master's
work
focused
on
local
government
tax
revenues
and
the
impact
of
federal
wilderness
lands
I
also
serve
on
the
Salt
Lake
County
Open
Space
trust
committee.
My
experience
combines
policy
seeing
the
big
picture
with
a
genuine
ability
to
connect
and
lead
people,
as
demonstrated
by
my
experience.
I
can
handle
difficult
situations
and
people
with
grace
honesty
and
equity.
I've
spent
the
last
15
years,
finding
creative
and
innovative
ways
to
communicate
to
students,
faculty
and
staff
at
two
of
Utah's.
E
Great
institutions
of
higher
education
as
a
director
of
digital
marketing,
I
have
done
everything
from
creating
the
president's
presentation
to
take
to
the
Utah
State
Legislature
to
implementing
new
digital
systems
and
platforms,
and
even
producing
YouTube
campaigns
that
included
skateboarding
sharks.
I
am
also
an
adjunct.
Political
science,
professor
in
the
classroom,
I
love
to
make
government
and
government
and
politics
accessible
and
real
pun
intended
each
semester.
I
have
the
goal
to
inspire
and
motivate
students.
E
Many
who
live
in
the
city
to
be
civically,
engaged
I,
sincerely
believe
in
the
power
of
Education
to
enrich
and
enliven
people's
lives.
My
success
in
the
classroom
is
an
indicator.
I'd
be
a
great
addition
to
this
council.
Every
part
of
me
believes
that
political
institutions
and
processes
can
improve
our
quality
of
life.
I
am
a
champion
of
the
democratic
process
and
fight
vigilantly
to
ensure
that
people
know
understand
and
are
able
to
exercise
their
rights
if
appointed
I
know
that
I
value
your
time
and
I
will
use
it
wisely.
E
I
value,
listening
and
I
will
spend
time
listening
in
order
to
represent
the
district
constituents.
I
pride
myself
in
my
ability
to
cut
through
the
noise
and
politics
to
get
to
the
heart
of
any
issue.
I've
worked
closely
on
projects
with
legislators,
college
presidents,
CEOs
board
members
and
thousands
of
young
people
stepping
into
a
college
classroom
for
the
first
time.
This
has
given
me
prevent
a
profound
capacity
for
empathy
which
enables
me
to
get
along
and
understand
people
from
all
backgrounds.
E
Most
importantly,
I
am
loyal
and
absolutely
dedicated
to
the
people
and
causes
I
love
and
I
love,
Salt,
Lake,
City
and
I
care
about
it.
A
lot
the
neighborhoods,
the
people,
the
geography
and
its
future
I
believe
I
can
be
an
excellent
contributor
and
teammate
to
the
Salt
Lake
City
Council
and
an
honorable
representative
for
district
5
I'm
grateful
for
the
opportunity
to
serve
the
district,
Salt
Lake
City
and
with
you.
Thank
you.
S
Hi
I'm,
Jason,
Stevenson
and
I
really
appreciate
this
time
to
talk
with
you
today,
I'd
like
to
start
off
by
telling
you
a
few
stories
about
where
I've
been
and
how
I
got
here
before
moving
to
Salt
Lake
City.
Almost
a
decade
ago,
my
wife,
Jackie
and
I
lived
in
Lancaster
Pennsylvania,
the
heart
of
Amish
country,
but
Lancaster
is
also
known
as
the
refugee
capital
of
America,
because
that
community
resettles
refugees
at
a
rate
20
times
more
than
the
national
average.
S
But
soon
after
we
moved
there,
I
realized
that
there
were
no
classes
in
Lancaster
to
help
these
new
residents
become
US
citizens,
so
I
designed
a
curriculum
and
started
teaching
citizenship
classes
on
Monday
nights
at
the
local
public
library.
In
three
years,
a
hundred
and
fifteen
of
our
students
became
US
citizens.
We
left
Lancaster
many
years
ago,
but
I'm
glad
to
say
that
those
classes
are
still
being
taught
on
Monday
nights
at
the
public
library
and
I
still
remember
the
lessons
and
determination
and
grit
that
those
students
taught
me
soon
after
we
moved
here.
S
I
began
volunteering
with
the
Utah
health
policy
project,
and
one
of
my
first
tasks
was
to
write
a
cover
story
for
City
Weekly
about
this
new
thing
called
the
Affordable
Care
Act,
the
article
led
to
a
job
at
UHP
P
and
for
the
next
five
years,
I
established
the
Affordable
Care
Act
in
Utah,
by
giving
over
hundreds
hundreds
of
town
halls
and
informational
sessions
around
the
state,
lobbying
the
legislature
and
helping
residents
enroll
in
this
new
coverage.
I
also
fought
for
Medicaid
expansion
and
helped
launch
the
successful
ballot
initiative
from
these
efforts.
S
I've
learned
that
it's
possible
to
find
common
ground
with
anybody,
especially
when
you're
talking
about
those
kitchen
table
issues
that
affect
all
of
us.
There's
a
trend
here,
wherever
I
am
I
get
involved,
I
ask
how
I
can
help
I
offer
ideas,
I,
listen
and
I
make
things
happen,
and
it's
not
just
about
the
easiest
that
everybody
likes,
but
I
seek
out
the
difficult
things
that
few
people
want
to
touch
and
I've
had
a
lot
of
practice
top
tackling
those
difficult
issues
in
this.
S
In
District
five,
with
my
seven
years
at
the
East
Liberty
Park
Community
Council.
First,
as
a
board
member
and
for
the
last
four
and
a
half
years
as
co-chair
during
my
tenure
at
Elko,
I've
run
more
than
75
public
meetings
and
addressed
multiple
topics
familiar
to
this
council,
including
not
only
fixing
potholes
but
also
street
lamps
in
a
telco
I've,
led
efforts
to
collaborate
with
other
community
councils
on
those
intervals
and
issues
and
I've
attended
meetings
of
all
those
councils.
S
By
writing.
Two
reports
outlining
serious
flaws
in
operation,
Rio
Grande
in
standing
in
Washington
Square
earlier
this
month
at
one
o'clock
in
the
morning,
wearing
a
blue
legal
observer.
Vest
of
all
these
lessons.
Maintaining
trust
is
the
most
important
to
me,
and
that
is
why,
if
I'm
selected
for
the
council,
I
would
resign
my
job
at
the
ACLU
to
prevent
any
conflicts
of
interest
from
impacting
either
institution.
It's
the
right
thing
to
do,
and
I
can
go
back
to
my
frightened
career
I.
S
Have
a
book
being
published
this
May
and
a
lot
of
ideas
that
I'm
interested
in
working
on
and
I
should
add
that
my
family
is
growing
to
Jackie
and
I
came
to
Salt
Lake
City
with
our
infants
on
Calvin.
We
were
three
our
son
Mitchell
was
born
here
and
that
has
made
us
for
and
later
this
spring
we
will
become
five
as
we
move
forward
with
adoption
throughout
all
these
efforts,
I
recognise
that
I've
been
given
many
advantages.
S
Yesterday,
like
many
of
you,
I
was
inspired
by
the
outpouring
of
donations
and
support
to
welcome
the
new
temporary
homeless.
Shelter
in
sugarhouse
and
I
was
glad
to
have
a
small
role
in
that
event,
after
helping
load,
the
trailers
with
donated
clothing,
I
returned
to
sugar
house
for
a
meeting
with
members
of
the
local
community
council
and
the
business
district
clustered
around
a
table.
We
hashed
out
how
to
make
the
new
overnight
shelf
shelter
successful.
Drawing
from
our
collective
experience
on
similar
issues,
it
wasn't
easy.
S
There
are
still
many
fears,
unknowns
and
questions
without
adequate
answers,
but
we
made
progress
and
we
agreed
to
keep
on
talking
and
keep
on
meeting.
What
I
do
know
is
that
to
make
the
sugarhouse
a
shelter
succeed,
we
need
to
have
both
events.
We
have
to
inspire
people
to
work
together
in
their
neighborhoods
to
make
them
more
welcoming
to
everyone,
and
we
need
to
wrestle
with
those
complex
challenges
that,
if
unsolved,
could
derail
those
ambitions.
S
B
P
Counsel
counsel,
chair
Wharton,
City,
Council
members,
mayor
Mendenhall,
and
to
this
wonderful
group
of
citizens
that
sits
behind
me
today.
It's
an
honor
and
a
privilege
to
be
able
to
stand
before
you
today.
I
have
stood
at
this
podium
many
times
giving
presentations
and
sat
in
meetings
in
this
same
chamber
over
the
years,
observing
how
the
City
Council
does
its
work.
I
can
say
without
hesitation
that
City
Council
meetings
are
riveting
there.
They
are
a
must-see
event.
P
Today
is
a
little
different,
though,
because
I
am
standing
before
you
to
represent
not
represent
the
administration
or
a
department,
but
to
talk
about
myself
and
my
qualifications
and
experience,
and
why
I
should
be
selected
to
join
this
great
group
and
to
sit
on
this
wonderful
Dyess.
That
is
in
front
of
me,
in
a
short
time
that
we
have
together
I
hope
to
give
you
a
better
understanding
and
sense
of
who
I
am
of
my
skills,
experience
and
fire
to
serve
in
the
city
as
its
best
fit.
P
Several
years
ago,
I
recall
a
presentation
I
made
in
this
chamber.
He
was
a
dog
off
leash
issue
relating
to
the
Carly's
historic
nature
park.
It
was
about
enforcement
which,
at
that
time
and
to
this
day
continues
to
be
a
challenge.
It
was
a
difficult
discussion
as
most
off
leash
issues
are
I,
recall,
councilmember,
Keith
Christensen,
at
the
end
of
the
meeting.
Turning
to
me
and
saying
do
not
darken
the
door
of
this
chamber
again
with
another
off
leash
issue
that
was
kind
of
an
ouch
moment.
We've
had
those.
P
It
was
also
I,
think
a
moment
in
the
statement
of
a
bit
of
good
humor,
but
from
this
I've
experienced
and
worked
through
tough
issues
with
many
City
Council's
I,
know
and
understand
what
you
go
through.
Your
expectation
of
accountability
and
problem-solving
and
your
frustrations,
Salt,
Lake,
City
and
district
5
is
a
wonderful
community.
I
chose
district
5
as
my
home
for
over
60
years,
my
years
of
public
service
have
not
been
behind
always
been
behind.
The
desk
I
have
tried
where
I
can
to
learn
more
about
the
services
that
I
was
responsible
to
manage.
P
I
walked
our
parks,
I
drove
on
snow
plows,
I
cut
and
watered
grass
in
the
city.
Cemetery
laid
asphalt
and
concrete,
collected
trash
and
built
playgrounds
in
Glendale
and
in
Liberty,
Park
I
even
daily
walked
across
the
State
Street
River.
We
created
River,
we
created
when
we
diverted
overflow
in
the
flood
of
8
1983
to
monitor
its
access.
P
I
helped
I
loved,
helping
create
the
Sorensen
Unity
Center
I
personally
felt
sick,
witnessing
the
poisoning
of
our
waterways
from
the
Chevron
oil
spill,
with
Stan
Penfold
I
planted
crocus
in
City
Creek
Park
to
recognize
and
celebrate
the
city's
diversity.
I
can
hardly
describe
how
I
felt
to
see
our
decade-long
investments
in
memory
Grove
to
create
a
commuting
community
gathering
space
from
a
crime
and
drug
infested,
mire
ripped
from
underneath
us
by
the
tornado
of
1999
and
then
as
a
community.
P
You
are
in
a
unique
and
important
position
you
get
to
choose
who
you
want
and
need
to
work
with
in
my
district,
even
though
public
office
elections
are
typically
decided
by
popular
vote,
you
are
in
the
best
position
to
decide
your
priorities
as
a
council
and
best
know
the
complex
issues
facing
the
city
and
our
individual
communities.
You
determine
and
decide
the
skill
set
and
personal
qualities
of
a
councilmember
that
aligned
with
yours
to
help
find
solutions
for
these
challenges
ahead.
P
Right
now,
the
City
Council
is
facing
some
pretty
big
issues:
inland
port
operation,
Rio
Grande,
the
homeless,
Resource
Center's,
the
overflow
shelter,
low-income
housing
and
air
quality.
To
name
a
few
I
worked
through
these
types
of
issues
before
and
can
add
value
to
the
public
process.
Now,
by
way
of
example,
you
may
remember
when
a
former
administration
and
City
Council
voted
to
sell
a
section
of
the
Main
Street
of
Main
Street
to
the
Church
of
Jesus
Christ
of
latter-day
saints
it
would
it
created
a
mess
during
several
years
of
litigation.
P
It
divided
the
community
along
religious
and
cultural
lines,
with
rocky
with
Mayor
rocky
Anderson.
I
was
able
to
work
to
put
back
together,
to
put
it
back
together
by
meeting
with
every
Community
Council,
and
we
hope
to
bring
a
public
solution
to
the
issues
that
ultimately
gave
us
the
funding
development
construction
of
the
Sorensen
Unity
Center
great
things
can
happen
when
people
get
together.
Thank
you
for
your
time
today.
It's
a
pleasure
to
be
before
you.
T
T
My
name
is
Carol
Rowe
Gusinsky
I
have
been
known
as
Carol
good
and
Carol
good
robles
insky
from
the
three
different
times
that
I
have
attempted
to
get
elected
into
Salt
Lake
City
government,
as
I
flew
back
in
today
from
my
trip
from
Chicago
visiting
an
ailing
father,
the
most
important
thing
that
I
thought
of
was
coming
directly
from
our
Constitution
that
we
are
here
to
protect
and
serve
so
I'd
like
to
share
with
you
the
amendment
that
spoke
to
me
this
morning.
It
talks
about
the
14th
amendment.
T
All
persons
born
or
naturalized
in
the
United,
States
and
subject
to
the
jurisdiction
thereof,
are
citizens
of
the
United
States
and
the
state
wherein
they
reside.
No
State
shall
make
or
enforce
any
law
which
shall
abridge
the
privileges
or
immunities
of
citizens
of
the
United
States.
Nor
shall
any
state
deprive
any
person
of
life,
liberty
or
property
without
due
process
of
the
law,
nor
deny
any
person
within
its
jurisdiction
the
equal
protection
of
the
laws.
T
That
speaks
to
me
because,
as
a
resident
of
district
5,
my
jurisdiction
doesn't
speak
to
me
and
I'm
also
certain
that
people
who
look
like
me
feel
like
they're,
not
their
jurisdiction,
does
not
speak
to
them.
You've
had
a
chance
to
look
at
my
questionnaire
and
my
resume,
but
I
will
share
with
you
a
little
bit
more
I've
been
in
Salt
Lake
City,
since
the
age
of
4
I've
gone
to
preschool
daycare,
neighborhood
house
Jackson,
Elementary
School,
South,
High
School,
the
University
of
Utah
and
I've
served
on
various
boards.
T
When
I
was
nine
years
old,
nine
years
old,
my
grandmother
who's
gone
now.
Ruth
Yarborough
used
to
have
these
really
interesting
meetings
at
her
home
in
popular
Grove.
What
I
later
found
out
is
that
those
were
mass
meetings
where
she
was
getting
people
to
gather
and
register
to
vote.
How
would
I
know
how
important
a
vote
is.
What
would
change
those
are
things
that
I
always
had
questions
about
always
I
grew
up
in
Glendale,
Central,
City
and
now
in
the
ninth
and
ninth
area,
where
I
consider
myself
an
outlier
number
one.
T
My
name
is
Carol
Ruggles
in
ski.
No
I
am
NOT
polish,
but
my
ex-husband
is
I,
have
a
home
that
I
went
homeless
for
six
months
to
save
enough
money
for
a
down
payment
for
a
program
called
first-time
homebuyer
program.
How
would
I
know
that,
22
years
later,
that
home
is
worth
three
times
more
than
I
paid
for
it?
I
would
like
to
see
families
like
me
be
able
to
share
some
of
the
resources
that
are
available
to
them
in
Salt,
Lake
City.
T
But
people
like
me,
don't
come
to
meetings
because
when
they
come
look
around
this
room.
Who
do
you
see?
You
don't
see
a
face
like
mine,
most
of
the
time
or
when
you
do
see
a
face
like
mine?
That's
because
we're
being
reactionary,
someone's
got
arrested.
Someone
had
a
hate
crime
imposed
against
them
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
that
doesn't
happen
again
as
I
take
my
place
on
the
council,
I
embrace
diversity,
I
hope
people
like
me
will
come
in
and
learn
more
about
the
City
Council
and
learn
more
about
their
community
councils.
T
Yes,
I
have
been
a
community
council,
chair
of
Salt
Lake
Central,
Community
Council,
yes,
I
have
served
on
minority
boards
in
double-a-c-p,
I
have
served
on
transportation
boards
even
before
tracks
and
front
runners
came
into
place,
but
I
am
one
of
those
kind
of
people
who
are
always
behind
the
scenes.
I've
tried
to
step
forward
plenty
of
times,
but
because
maybe
people
are
a
little
questionable
or
maybe
they're
a
little
uncomfortable
with
what
are
some
of
the
things
that
I
have
to
say.
They
may
a
teeter-totter
a
little
wit
and
eventually
not
vote
for
me.
T
But
that's
okay,
because
I'm
going
to
keep
trying
I'm
gonna
keep
showing
up
and
I'm
gonna
keep
getting
on
the
ballot
and
once
I
take
my
place
within
the
Salt
Lake
Community
Council.
Maybe
more
people
will
feel
comfortable
to
come
forward
and
not
only
be
a
reactionary
but
actually
learn
that
the
things
that
the
council
do
are
there
to
protect
families
to
make
things
better
help
you
breathe
better
I,
get
out
on
a
walk
in
my
own
neighborhood
and
five
minutes
later.
T
I'm
winded
I
might
not
be
able
to
run
a
marathon,
but
I
could
get
up
to
coffee
garden
and
back
pretty
quick,
so
I
just
want
to
say
today
that
I
just
thank
you
all.
You've
got
a
hard
decision
to
make
look
around
this
room
and
ask
yourself
who
was
really
missing
from
the
Salt
Lake
City
Council.
Thank
you.
You
have
a
good
day.
B
Okay,
I'd
like
to
thank
everybody
for
your
presentations
today
and
for
being
so
respectful
of
the
time
limits.
The
investment
of
your
time
when
considering
this
opportunity
to
serve
on
the
council
is
very
much
appreciated.
Before
we
head
into
a
straw
poll
voting
and
the
council
will
break
for
dinner.

Let's
get
started
again,
sorry
about
the
sandwiches
everyone,
so
did
everybody
get
time
to
have
a
sandwich
that
wanted
one
okay,
good,
so
I
will
outline
the
voting
process
and
that
we're
going
to
go
through
right
now
and
each
of
the
council
members.

have
a

provided
to
you
with

after
voting,
pass
it
to
Cindy

staff
will
provide
it
to

will
read
the
votes
out
loud
at
the
podium
Cindy

who
Weaver
will
be
tallying?

round
one?

will
each
vote
for
four
applicants
by
marking
in
the
box
to
the

of
the

who
you
would
like
to
select
to
move
forward.

Let's
see
the
results
of
round,
one
will
determine
the
next
steps
in
voting.
I
will
list
the
possible
outcomes
of
round
one
now.
If
no
applicants
receive
four
votes,
those
who
receive
at
least
one
the
council
may
move
applicants
to
round
1a
of
the
ballot.
If
more
than
three
applicants
receive
four
votes
or
more,
the
council
may
move
those
applicants
on
to
round
two
of
the
ballot.
If
less
than
three
applicants
receive
four
votes,
the
council
may
move
those
applicants
to
route
the
round
three
ballot:
okay,
clowns,
the
council
members:
do
you
understand
this?
B
We
I
hope
you're
as
saying
yes,
because
we
did
already
vote
on
this
procedure
before
okay.
So
this
should
not
sound
new
okay,
we
do
have
fun.
Sometimes
we
get
a
little
punchy.
So,
okay,
so
does
anybody?
Any
council
members
have
any
questions.
I
will
not
it's
also
in
here
agenda.
Okay,
let's
go
for
it.
B
D
D
B
D
B
L
Want
to
say
is
that
the
d5
residents
are
amazing
that
everyone
that
came
out
and
put
forth
their
application
I've
thoroughly
enjoyed
this
was
been.
The
best
part
is
getting
to
know
the
residents
of
district
5
and
their
passion
for
the
area
and
what
they
want
to
see
happen.
So
I
expect
to
see
most
of
these
individuals
again
in
2021
running
again
right.
So
it
was.
This
has
been
the
best
part
now
comes
the
hardest
part.
Anything
when
we're
good
Ivan
down
to
two
votes
and
then
one
vote.
So
it's
a
lot
more
difficult
and.
B
B
We
would
welcome
as
a
council
to
have
you
back
before
us
for
advice
and
consent
to
appointment
to
one
of
those
boards
so
there,
in
addition
to
that,
you
can
get
involved
with
your
community
councils
and,
of
course,
any
of
the
many
wonderful
nonprofits
that
we
have
that
are
based
in
Salt,
Lake,
City,
so
I
hope
that
you'll
take
that
passion
today
and
and
convert
it,
divert
it
to
one
of
those
organizations
as
well
and
and
continue
to
move
forward.
So
thank
you.
Mr.
F
Chair
Mike,
yes,
just
echo
what
everybody
has
said
everybody
in
here
can
put
me
down
as
a
reference
for
anything
because
really
reading
all
of
the
material.
The
vast
amount
of
experience
that
sits
in
this
room
is
the
experience,
knowledge,
passion,
compassion,
it's
quite
amazing,
and
we
really
do.
We
have
a
lot
of
boards
that
always
remain
empty
seats
on
boards
that
remain
empty
and
we'd
really
love
to
make
sure
that
those
get
filled,
because
that
is
just
another
way
for
voices
to
get
heard
in
a
bigger
picture
and
I'm
actually
really
serious.
F
You
can
put
me
down
as
a
reference
and
I
before
anyone
here
can
put
me
down.
So
thank
you
all
of
you.
Thank
you
for
putting
yourselves
out
there
and
applying
and
putting
all
of
the
hard
work
into
the
application
itself
and
being
thoughtful
with
your
words
as
and
both
written
and
presented
to
us
today.
B
Right
so
what
happens
after
this
is
that
council
members
will
vote
for
one
applicant
by
marking
the
box
on
the
left
of
the
name
they
selected
to
move
forward
the
results
of
round
one
will
either
lead
to
a
discussion
or
may
continue
as
needed.
The
applicants
receiving
a
majority
of
votes,
which
is
four
or
more
after
this
round.
B
G
B
I
D
D
Q
B
L
B
B
H
Wow,
thank
you
for
this
opportunity,
I'm
flattered
to
have
made
it.
This
far,
I
spoke
earlier
about
my
vision
for
Salt,
Lake,
City
and
now
I
want
to
speak
a
little
bit
more
about
my
experience
and
how
I
think
that
will
translate
to
service
on
the
City
Council.
My
professional
career
is
an
architect
my
experience
as
a
small
business
owner
and
my
work
as
an
educator
all
have
apical
application
to
serving
on
the
City
Council.
H
As
an
architect,
I've
worked
in
numerous
cities,
I
have
presented
in
front
of
countless
Planning
Commission
and
his
City
Council
meetings
and
I.
Look
at
and
study
zoning
ordinances,
often
and
I
understand
the
real
impact.
The
real-world
impact
that
they
have
as
a
small
business
owner.
I
am
faced
with
new
decisions
and
challenges
daily
I'm
required
to
make
decisions
on
things.
I
know
little
about
like
401ks
and
tax
planning.
H
Finally,
as
an
educator,
I
taught
a
course
called
people
in
place.
For
four
years,
we
selected
a
different
neighborhood
within
Salt
Lake
City,
and
the
students
studied
the
neighborhood
analyzed
its
strengths
and
weaknesses
and
proposed
design
interventions
which
would
help
revitalize
and
improve
the
area
we
looked
at
neighborhoods
such
as
the
ball
park,
the
State
Street
corridor,
the
nine
line
and
the
granary
central
ninth
area
I'm
excited
to
put
those
lessons
learned
to
work
in
real
life.
H
R
Am
grateful
for
your
support
and
I
feel
honored
to
be
at
this
point
in
the
process.
I
live
in
Elko
and
I.
Often
turn
left
onto
in
13th
South
from
seventh
East
a
few
years
ago.
I'd
sit
at
that
signal
and
wait
cycle
after
cycle,
sometimes
as
long
as
ten
minutes
until
it
would
finally
grant
that
elusive
left
turn
signal.
A
call
to
the
city
led
to
a
call
to
the
state
which
led
to
a
crew
coming
out
the
state
even
appreciated
my
suggestion
for
a
brilliant,
a
blinking,
yellow
signal.
R
The
light
was
fixed
within
three
days
and
they
added
a
blinking
yellow
within
the
week.
Government
doesn't
often
work
that
fast,
but
it
did
and
when
I
died.
This
is
the
accomplishment
I
want
on
my
gravestone
that
ten
minutes
of
savings
may
not
sound
like
much,
but
a
lot
can
happen
in
ten
minutes
and
it
feels
like
a
daily
miracle
to
me.
It's
a
story
of
persistence,
friendly
and
effective
advocacy
serving
the
neighborhood
and
finding
the
right
person
to
solve
your
problem
and
it's
a
story
of
privilege.
R
Not
many
salt
lakers
know
that
many
problems
are
a
quick
one
or
two
phone
calls
from
a
solution.
They
don't
know
where
to
start
they're
often
intimidated.
Maybe
they
don't
speak
the
language
and
sometimes
they
see
government
as
an
enemy,
but
it's
about
service
and
love.
A
service
is
a
core
motivator
for
me.
In
my
professional
work
and
civic
involvement,
I
know
it's
a
core
motivator
for
you.
I
want
to
help
you
with
your
priorities.
R
It's
why
we
sign
up
for
a
job,
this
love
of
service
that
involves
getting
yelled
at
60%
of
the
time
in
this
administration
and
council
I
see
a
team
of
public
servants
who
understand
that
government
is
about
service.
It's
about
listening
to
the
neighborhoods,
to
business,
to
residents
to
those
experiencing
homelessness,
to
service
providers.
It's
about
clean
air
transit,
affordable
housing
and
more
I
hope
you'll.
Appoint
me
to
serve
with
you
as
we
serve
Salt,
Lake
City,
and
thank
you
so
much
for
your
time
and
consideration
today.
E
Hello
again,
I'm
truly
humbled
to
be
up
here
and
I.
Thank
you.
So
much
for
this
opportunity.
At
the
beginning
of
every
semester,
I
tell
my
students
how
they
can
be
successful
in
my
class.
It's
three
things.
It's
very
simple,
I
tell
them
to
show
up
come
to
class.
Basically
try
which
means
I
can
tell
if
you've
tried,
when
you
wrote
this
paper
or
not,
and
then
to
care,
and
that
for
me,
I
asked
them
in
the
beginning
of
semester,
start
paying
attention
to
politics.
E
I
want
them
to
be
active
in
their
in
democracy
and
I,
tell
them
to
try
I
tell
them,
be
civically,
engaged
human
beings,
and
then
I
tell
them
to
care
and
care
about
people
and
other
communities
and
people
that
might
not
have
as
much
as
them
and
that's
what
I
want
to
take
them
with
them
to
take
away
from
my
class.
So
when
I
was
thinking
about
this
two-minute
presentation,
I
brought
a
final
exam
from
last
semester.
Emma
I
asked
the
question:
do
you
think
our
govern
government
is
broken?
E
Please
explain
why
and
then
I
asked
them
what
they've
gained
from
this
class
and
what
they
will
take
from
it
and
for
me,
her
answer.
I
hung
it
up
in
my
office
because
I
loved
it
so
much
and
I
think
it
shows
exactly
what
comes
from
my
heart
and
into
my
students
that
I
hope
they
take
on.
She
says
like
it
says,
on
the
board.
Show
up
try
and
care
are.
These
are
my
main
takeaways
for
me.
So
often
I
don't
get
involved
in
things
because
of
newness
and
uncertainty
so
pushing
past.
B
L
I
D
D
D
So
Utah
law
does
say
that
if
you
get
it
to
two
candidates-
and
you
can't
get
a
majority
vote
of
those
two-
then
the
candidate
can
be
appointed
by
the
lot,
which
is
like
drawing
straws
or
a
flip
of
a
coin.
But
you
have
to
get
it
to
two
state
law.
Only
thinks
about
that
in
the
context
of
two.
So
we
are
going
to
need
to
think
of
either
a
way
to
revote
or
take
a
break
or
have
them
come
back
up
and
present
again
you.
B

F
F
F

F
L
F
C
L

B
B

B

F
L
F
L
F
B
D
B
Q
D
Don't
see
in
your
process
as
written
now
anything
that
contemplated
this
three-way
tie
and
so
we're
sort
of
an
uncharted
terrain
on
how
to
break
that
tie.
If
the
council
wanted
to
explore
rank
choice,
voting
we
certainly
could
but
I
think
we
would
probably
have
to
take
a
recess
and
figure
out
what
that
looks
like,
but
it's
it
it
doesn't
violate
any
Open,
Meetings
Act
or
anything
by
thinking
about
it.
Now.
B
F
B
A
Sorry
I
didn't
think
of
the
right
choice.
I
like
that
idea,
actually
I
understand
the
Dalek
concern.
I
I
agree:
I,
think
that
we
didn't
have
anything
specific
at
this
point,
so
everything
should
be
on
the
table.
I
like
there
ain't
choice
actually
better
than
this
one.
Personally
so
I'd
be
okay,
taking
a
short
resource
figuring
out
how
to
do
that
quickly
and
then
going
into
that
and
we'd
already
have
a
backup
if
we
couldn't
figure
out
a
good
way
to
do
that.
Okay,.
L
James
mr.
Schurr
I
I
would
prefer
like
you
I
would
prefer
not
to
switch
the
methodology
that
we've
been
doing
and
if
it
we
go
to
three
votes
in
a
row
and
we
it's
the
same
boat,
then
I'm
fine
with
looking
at
you
know
some
sort
of
ranked
choice
voting
if
there
is
no
absolute
turning
but
I
feel
like
it's
a
little
disingenuous
now
the
ones
we've
already
said.
This
is
the
route
we're
gonna,
go
just
to
cut
bait
and
switch
okay.
D
F
I
think
that
if
we
I
don't
that's,
my
suggestion
would
simply
be
right.
Now,
we've
come
up
with
a
question
that
they're
going
to
answer
I.
Think
if,
after
this
round
it's
the
same
and
we
have
a
three-way
tie,
then
we
should
consider
rank-choice
voting
for
some
reason
that
it's
just
a
tongue
twister
for
me,
because
so
it
would
be
this
round
that
we've
already
talked
about
and
then
move
on,
so
that
we
can.
Actually,
you
know,
pick
somebody
that
would
be
my
suggestion.
B
B
A
A
Three-Way
tie,
the
problem
is
with
six
people
we
could
go
to.
Two
is
still
a
three-way
tie.
It's
all
the
way
through
a
process,
so
I
would
recommend
after
this.
So
we
personally
I
like
they
do
well
we'll
go
back.
We
do
that
after
this
round.
If
we're
still
tied,
we
don't
know.
If
we
can't
get
on
to
after
this
round,
then
we
will
do
a
ranked
choice
at
the
next
round.
Five,
okay.
B
B
Sorry,
so
we
will
do
one
more
round
with
one
vote
each
after
and
we'll
take
that
vote
after
we
hear
from
the
candidates
on
the
question
of
what
differentiates
you
from
your
two
opponents.
If
we're
still
at
a
three-way
tie
at
that
point,
and
then
we
will
break
try
to
figure
out
how
to
do
ring
to
it
if
we
can
implement
a
rain,
Joyce
voting
system
and
move
to
that,
okay,
okay,.
R
Now
for
the
coda,
thank
you
again
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
I'm
honored.
What
sets
me
apart
as
a
candidate
for
district
5
I
have
years
and
years
of
experience
as
an
effective,
advocate,
I
understand
me.
Municipal
statue
and
city
structure
I
understand
the
legislative
process
and
how
to
work
with
you
all
to
build
consensus
on
the
issues
that
we
care
about.
R
I
started
my
political
service
on
the
HRC
board,
I
just
finished,
serving
on
the
Planned
Parenthood
board,
I've
served
on
arts
boards,
political
boards,
I
understand,
elections,
I,
understand,
I've,
been
attending
the
work
sessions
for
weeks
and
I
understand
the
issues
that
you're
working
on
now
I'm
a
bridge
builder
I,
understand
the
variety
of
voices
in
my
district
and
how
to
amplify
them
and
bring
them
together
into
a
unified
piece.
I
will
amplify
diverse
voices,
I
understand
zoning
and
policy
and
I
bring
relationships
that
can
help
with
them.
R
Taking
away
our
authority
that
happens
over
and
over
and
over
your
most
important
role
is
controlling
the
purse,
strings
and
I.
Think
I
may
have
the
strongest
extensive
budgeting
experienced,
but
all
of
us
know
how
to
budget
I
would
need
something
incredible.
Yesterday,
dozens
of
Salt
Lake
City
residents
came
together
to
welcome
the
sugarhouse
temporary
shelter.
We
filled
trucks
and
trucks.
It
started
with
a
phone
call
between
two
friends,
Jojo
Leo
and
Tony
Milner,
who
led
to
a
few
more
calls
and
then
suddenly
we
had
a
team
and
event
with
hundreds
of
items.
R
The
police
showed
out
fire
crews
and
councilmember
Amy.
Was
there
working
her
tail
off?
She
made
sure
items
got
to
the
right
place.
It
was
a
beautiful
experience
with
missing
the
culture
of
yem,
be
triumph
in
Salt,
Lake
City.
This
is
my
community,
and
this
is
who
I'm
proud
to
serve
I'm,
offering
myself
for
this
position
because
I
understand
them.
This
is
government
in
action,
because
this
is
service.
If
you
appoint
me,
I
will
build
common
ground
and
identify
creative
solutions
to
complex
problems.
Thank
you.
So
much
for
your
time.
E
Thank
you
again:
I
am
a
gay
hat-wearing
mountain
biking,
mountain
enthusiast,
but
also
a
sorority
girl
who
had
to
ask
her
sister
what
sheer
tights
meant
when
I
asked
what
I
should
wear
with
this
dress
today,
I
believe
that
policy
can
be
taught
and
I
believe
that
I
have
the
skills
and
ability
to
learn
policy
and
keep
up
with
that.
All
the
things
that
you
manage,
as
in
as
a
City
Council
Salt
Lake,
Community
College,
is
like
a
small
city
and
I
have
been
part
of
making
huge
cultural
changes.
E
Their
policy
changes
there
and
we
have
60,000
students
and
6,000
employees.
So
to
me,
it's
a
lot
like
a
small
city,
a
small
City
I've
worked
in
for
eight
years,
but
my
personality
is
something
that
I
think
can't
be
taught
and
my
ability
to
get
people
together
for
a
common
cause
to
be
friends
with
everyone
and
make
connections,
build
bridges
and
be
a
great
teammate.
I
think
sets
me
apart.
Thank
you.
H
H
I
have
a
lot
of
experience
in
in
what
makes
cities
prosper
and
I
think
I
have
a
lot
of
experience
within
this
building,
working
on
the
redevelopment,
Advisory
Committee
and
serving
on
the
Planning
Commission
I've
held
positions
that
are
decision-making
positions
on
these
issues
and
and
I
think
that
that
is
his
experience.
That'll
be
valuable
to
my
work
on
the
city
council.
Finally,
one
of
my
values
that
I
wrote
about
in
my
questionnaire
is
that
I
believe
in
honesty
and
integrity.
H
I
really
believe
that
that's
something
that
we
lack
with
a
lot
of
governmental
bodies
and
I
really
believe
that
that
our
city,
our
community,
can
only
get
behind
us
in
so
much
as
they
trust
us
I.
Think
in
order
to
build
trust,
we
have
to
listen.
We
have
to
be
able
to
build
relationships
with
people
with
the
concerned
citizens
when
there's
a
when
there's
a
public
comment
that
we
actually
don't
agree.
What
would
agree
with?
We
have
to
find
the
reason
why
that
comment
was
made
and
addressed
that
concern
I.
Think
that's
really
important.
B
D
L
B
D
L
B
Actually,
what
we
do
now
is
that
this
is
the
is
that
this
concludes
our
meeting.
Our
excuse
me
our
work
session,
so
we
will
adjourn
this
work
session
and
we
will
go
into
our
formal
meeting
for
the
night
and
our
formal
meeting
has
one
or
two
items
on
the
agenda.
We
will
have
a
public
hearing
for
grant
applications
and
then
we
have
our
consent
agenda,
which
only
has
one
item,
which
is
a
scheduling
item.
B
Would
you
like
us
to
postpone
the
items
on
the
agenda
so
that
you
can
join
us
at
the
Dyess
for
the
hearings,
or
would
you
prefer
that
we
have
the
hearings
before
seating
you
and
also
the
consent
agenda?
Technically,
you
did
not
consent
to.
Would
you
like
to
vote
on
the
consent
agenda,
so
this
begins
your
work
on
the
City
Council?
B
Okay,
would
you
like
to
be
seated
before
we
hear
the
public
hearing
public
comment?
We
probably
need
I
mean
hey
I
would
prefer
that
too,
but
I
would
like
him
to
say
what
he
would
like
if
he
wants
to
take
a
few
minutes.
So,
like
you
know,
yeah
find
is
I'm
sure
that
there's
a
lot
a
lot
of
feelings
happening.
B
So
if
you
would
like
to
wait
and
have
a
few
minutes
or
if
he
wants
to
call
and
have
his
family
come
or
something
like
that,
then
then
we
would
have
the
public
comment
first
and
then
that
would
give
them
some
time
to
get
here
so
that
we
can
seat
you.
Or
would
you
prefer
just
to
get
right
to
work?
The
wait
till
the
again
okay?
Well,
would
you'll
still
be
voting
on
the
consent
agenda?
So
don't
worry
you
get
to.
You
won't
be
missing
that
exciting
scheduling
vote.
Okay.
