Roy City Council member William "Bill" Starks is under fire after giving a Nazi salute during a recent city council meeting, raising serious ethical concerns among constituents and officials.The incident, which took place at the end of a July 8 council meeting, was captured on video and has since sparked widespread criticism. Mayor Kimber Ivy and other council members expressed their shock and dismay at Starks’ behavior.
Mayor Ivy's full statement: The scenario that led up to me getting a Nazi salute from Councilmember Bill Starks was a simple vote for an adjournment of my first meeting back from working remotely while recovering from childbirth. I have been trying to ensure that every council member knows their vote and voice are heard and recorded appropriately. I was unable to see or hear Councilmember Bill Stark's vote, so I asked for his vote again.
