She was elected to Manti City Council in 2017, and has applied her expertise to City projects such as the recently revised land-use ordinances. As a council member, Mary’s objective is to continue to address the on-going basic needs of Manti City (water, sewer, electricity, waste removal, roads, etc.), and make decisions with the available resources which will be of greatest benefit now and into the future. She believes it is critical to ensure that Manti grows in a well-planned and organized manner, and that the necessary resources and infrastructure are in place to make Manti a choice place to work and live, now and for decades to come.
