Clarkston council adopts Resolution 26-02, appoints town treasurer, mayor pro tem and town clerk

The Clarkston Town Council on Jan. 20 unanimously approved Resolution 26-02, appointing Jared Peterson to serve as town treasurer and mayor pro tem and Holly Jones as town clerk.

Council member Ryan Thompson read the resolution text, which cites "Utah code 10 dash 3 dash 9 1 6" as the authority for establishing and filling the listed positions. An unidentified council member moved to pass the resolution "as read by Ryan Thompson," a second was recorded, and the council responded "Aye" to the motion.

The resolution text presented at the meeting states that the appointments are made "pursuant to Utah code 10 dash 3 dash 9 1 6" and declares that the named individuals are "hereby appointed to the following positions" (town treasurer, mayor pro tem, and town clerk). The council did not state a recorded roll-call tally; approval was indicated by an affirmative voice vote.

The council did not discuss qualifications on the record beyond the language in the resolution. Next administrative steps discussed included filing the signed resolution with town records and updating contact rosters for town business.

The council proceeded to other agenda items immediately after the resolution vote.
