Salt Lake County Mayor JennyWilsonUT: 'Rocky was an unfocused mayor who created chaos at every turn. He carries arrogance as a core element of his DNA that can’t be checked, as evidence of this current fool-hearty endeavor of seeking re-election.'
for Salt Lake City mayor. After 15 years out of office, he is arrogantly declaring, “Make Salt Lake City great again.”was 50 minutes! 50 minutes! His actions are naïve and misinformed. His criticism of current Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall should be rejected.Rocky was an unfocused mayor who created chaos at every turn. He carries arrogance as a core element of his DNA that can’t be checked, as evidence of this current foolhardy endeavor of seeking re-election.
Rocky’s claim that he can magically solve homelessness challenges is harmful and offensive to many, not just Salt Lake City’s mayor. America’s cities are facing unprecedented challenges right now and Salt Lake City is not immune from those systemic influences. Additionally, the “American Dream” of owning a home and having a good-paying job is slipping for more Americans. These are systemic and tragic outcomes of this era. To claim Mayor Mendenhall has failed to address them is offensive. The reality is there is no simple solution.
Partnerships funded by the state, county and Salt Lake City since Mendenhall has been in office include: Prioritizing a mental health receiving center where individuals can be taken in a crisis, which is scheduled to open in 2024, opening winter overflow for those experiencing homelessness earlier than ever before this year, funding a hotel that can be converted for the elderly and frail who are experiencing homelessness and hundreds of new supportive housing units.
