MAYOR’S MESSAGE
As the holiday season approaches, we are thrilled to announce that our annual holiday lighting at City Hall will once again illuminate the heart of our city, spreading warmth, joy, and a festive glow to all who visit. We invite you and your loved ones to come see the lights, take in the sights, and experience the spirit of the season right here in Murray. This celebration is more than just a display of lights—it’s a symbol of the unity, resilience, and kindness that make our city so special.
In the spirit of the holidays, I encourage each of us to use this time to extend kindness, love, and acceptance to one another. The holidays provide us with a unique opportunity to uplift our neighbors and show
our appreciation through acts of goodwill, no matter how big or small. Whether it’s checking in on an elderly neighbor, o ering a helping hand, sharing a meal, or simply exchanging a warm greeting, these thoughtful gestures help to create a community where everyone feels valued and welcomed. Together, let’s bring light not only to our streets and homes but to each other’s lives as well.
May the holiday lights at City Hall remind us of the joy and warmth we each have the power to spread. From all of us at Murray City, we wish you a season lled with peace, happiness, and the companionship of good neighbors. Happy holidays, Murray!
Message from the Council CITY COUNCIL
Thank You, Murray - Let’s Continue Our Work
As I transition into my new role as the representative for House District 35, I want to take a moment to re ect on the immense privilege it has been to serve the residents of Murray City, especially those in District 3. Working hand-in-hand with our community to address challenges and create meaningful change has been a truly rewarding experience. I’m deeply grateful for the trust you placed in me and for the opportunity to contribute to the growth and well-being of our city.
This transition means my seat on the City Council will soon need to be lled, and I want to encourage anyone with a passion for public service to consider applying for the vacancy. Local government is where real change begins. It’s where we listen to our neighbors, nd solutions, and make decisions that directly impact our daily lives.
As I step into my new role at the state legislature, one of my top priorities will be protecting the autonomy of cities like Murray, particularly as we face increasing state preemption. Preemption, meaning when a higher government supersedes lower level authorities, such as our state legislature overruling our city government. While uniformity is sometimes necessary, local governments must retain the ability to act in the best interest of their residents and community at-large.
Take Murray City Power as an example. Our municipally owned utility isn’t just about keeping the lights on– it’s about energy in-
dependence, economic development, and renewable energy initiatives that re ect the values of our community. State interference in matters like this undermines local governments’ ability to make decisions that align with the unique needs of our citizens.
The balance between state oversight and local control must respect the people who live with the decisions every day. Local leaders, elected by their neighbors, are best positioned to address their communities’ priorities. That’s why I urge you to stay engaged during the upcoming legislative session and continue the conversation with us as your city and state representatives.
As I move into this next chapter, I pledge to advocate for Murray’s principles and protect our ability to make informed decisions that serve our community. Together, we can ensure that the voices of our neighbors remain strong and clear.
Thank you for trusting me to serve. I look forward to continuing this important work with all of you.
