Mayor's Message

It's Been an Honor to Serve

It is hard to believe that it’s been four years since I took the oath of office to serve as your mayor. I was first sworn in on September 19, 2017 as interim mayor and then on January 2, 2018 as your elected mayor. The oath of office administered to elected officials in Utah includes the words “support, obey, and defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of this State, and perform the duties of my office… with fidelity.”

Operation Cover-Up

Want to donate some warmth to those in need? The Murray City Fire Department has set up a no-contact drop-off bin behind Station #84, at 163 East 5900 South. Needed items include new or gently used coats, blankets, gloves, beanies, or other outdoor wear.

Operation Cover-Up helps provide articles of clothing to the homeless and others in need during harsh winter months by working closely with various charities and social service groups. This program is only successful because of the generosity of our great community.
