From Deseret News archives:
7 Tooele mayoral candidates focus on city growth, water
In the Oct. 4 primary election, seven candidates will ask residents to vote for them to replace Roberts. That field will be narrowed to two who will face off in the Nov. 8 general election.
Tooele also has two at-large city council seats up for election, and six candidates including the two incumbents hope to be among the final four on November's ballot.
The Deseret Morning News sent each candidate a questionnaire about the issues facing their city. Following are summaries of their responses:
Jay Edwin Collier, 53, wrote that he has four areas he wants to emphasize if he becomes mayor. He wants to "work on Sheep Lane to I-80." He says the city should make sure it has enough water before allowing more houses to be built. He believes the city should build a biodiesel fuel plant, and "make it 78 cents a gallon to be used by city vehicles." Finally, he wrote that he would work toward city residents using alternative forms of energy, such as solar and wind power, "and have Utah Power buy back what the city doesn't use. Then the city is part of the solution to our power problem, not part of the problem."
