Perry police officers are now mandatorily wearing body cameras, the first in Northern Utah. Each camera’s cost is about $500, with the dash cameras costing about $5000, Chief Dale Weese says, “The new body cameras are superior.  You can get video whether people are in front of the car or not. This should help with possible conflicts that arise. The officers have been training for several months with the cameras.”

It seems that education has become a can of worms and a sore spot for many in society today.  Common core is being questioned at every turn and many feel public education has become a state-run religion.  Every time you turn on the news you hear of parents who are frustrated with the education system because 6-year-old Johnny was sent home for chewing his sandwich into the shape of a gun and a 5-year-old girl was sexually harassed by a 6-year-old boy because he kissed her on the cheek.

Karen Cronin Perry City Mayor

Karen Cronin believes one of the most important items to address is the economic development of the City. It is vital to provide employment to the member of the community so their financial needs are meet. This increases the tax bases for continued growth. As the population continues to grow, the Perry area will see a surge of new residential and commercial developments. Growth needs to be carefully planned and managed to ensure infrastructure, utilities and emergency services are in place.

Brady Lewis, who is running for Perry City Council stated, “Having a career outside of politics is precisely what qualifies me for this temporary service.”

While helping with the 2012 Mitt Romney presidential campaign, he was encouraged and inspired to serve the community through political office.

Bruce Lyon Perry City Council

City Council

Bruce Lyon cites his reason for running for election as, “The city has been so kind to my family and I think it's time to give back.”  Bruce expresses a deep love for Perry City. Moving from Salt Lake with his wife thirty years ago was a culture shock. The population at the time was around 900 citizens. The difficulty of moving to such a small town was soon forgotten as the citizens welcomed them, and made them feel at home. “There’s no way we’ll ever leave.” He says.  He hopes to help Perry maintain its community spirit of kindness and love.
