Wright was one of the first to file for the mayor seat and has presented the following to express his interest and desires for the City of Orem. "I have watched with much interest many good things which have occurred in Utah County and this fine City of Orem. However, How-ever, there have been some recent developments and actions taken by the Mayor and Orem City Council which is designed to take us away from an image of Family City to Regional Shopping Center. Cen-ter. I feel a change in leadership is needed, and so I am offering my services. "Specifically, I feel citizen property owners input is being largely ignored. The Mayor and City Council claim commercial development is more profitable to the City than residential. This probably is true, but they are artificially ar-tificially inflating the economy by purchasing property high with taxpayer funds, and selling low to entice businesses to locate in residential areas all over the city. The fact still remains that without people, businesses cannot can-not survive. 'The Mayor and City Council just recently signed an agreement agree-ment covering property at Center and State Streets with Boyer Orem Associates, agreeing to refund to them $220,000 per year of Sales and Property taxes for the next 24 years. This in effect is giving them an interest free, tax free gift of $5.3 million. The taxpayers tax-payers are subsidizing the shopping shop-ping center. "If elected, I pledge my time and efforts to work with the City Council, City staff, the Businesses Busi-nesses and Citizens of this community com-munity to continue to build and foster our image as The Family City USA. "We need a Mayor who has the time and inclination to be a daily working Mayor, and available for public input. I pledge to be such a Mayor at no additional salary expense. ex-pense. "My wife and I were born and raised in Utah, and we love this State. We chose to make Orem our retirement home nearly ten years ago, have made many new friends, and are committed to helping make this community the best city in the State. "I realize I will have only one vote on the City Council, but I Clean Air meetings Beginning Wednesday, Sept. 13, the Health and Environment Subcommittee of the Energy and Commerce Committee will begin "marking up" President's Bush's Clean Air Amendment Act.
