Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall kicked off her reelection campaign Saturday with a rally focused on unity and progress for the city.
"I think it's natural for us to think a week like this might have been a bad week. It's not. I saw this week as a week of togetherness in this city," Mendenhall said. "The city, the county, our residents all coming together around projects and even around emergencies to move this city forward."
"That's who we are. That's Salt Lake City. Hundreds upon hundreds of people came out that night," Mendenhall said. "People of all ages and backgrounds working together, because that's who we are as Salt Lakers." "Our city isn't perfect, but it is great," she said. "Our growth and the relentless commitment of the people who have invested their hearts into this city are fueling truly amazing opportunities."
Looking back on her first term, Mendenhall said she is proudest of how those accomplishments were made: "We did it together! And that's how we are going to keep moving this city forward is together," she said. Working with other cities and the state government brings better outcomes, she said, and Salt Lake City has been able to transform its relationship to work together and put residents' needs first to find solutions for affordable housing and public safety.
"I want to keep working to unify this city — figuratively and literally — by exploring every option to overcome the rails and the highways that tear us apart," she said.
