Conrad Jacobson
Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to look at this website! Since you're reading this, you probably know that I'm a candidate for the North Salt Lake Utah City Council, 2025.
Reason for Candidacy
I have been honored to serve the community and its residents over a period of many years. I know and understand what the duties and responsibilities of the office entail, and have successfully occupied the position in the past. I feel that my background, experience, and other qualifications make me uniquely qualified to serve again. I am in excellent health physically and mentally, and expect to remain so during the four-year position for which I am running.
Political Philosophy
Conservative: I believe that the Local Government should provide for the basic needs of its residents: streets in good condition, public safety on a local level, basic utilities and sanitation services, and the expectation that these services will continue to be available at a reasonable cost in the future. Only after those basic needs are met should the community become involved in other activities that are dependent on taxpayer funding. And even therein the question of “can” versus “should” the City do something must be carefully examined – and the return to the residents on the investment of their tax money stringently controlled.
