The Brian Head Town Council appointed Martin Tidwell to fill a midterm council vacancy at its March 24 meeting.
Tidwell, a CPA who previously served on the Town Council and Planning Commission, emphasized fiscal responsibility, community collaboration and managed growth during his interview. The council also interviewed Zach Sigurd, a technology consultant and small-business owner who emphasized modernization, communication and snow-removal priorities.
Council members discussed relative strengths: several noted Tidwell's prior municipal experience and familiarity with the Aspen Meadows development agreement, while Council Member Logan Cruz noted value in Sigurd's fresh perspective. Council Member Larry Freeberg moved to appoint Martin Tidwell to complete the term ending Dec. 31, 2027; Council Member Duane Nyen seconded the motion, which passed 5-0.
The minutes record that Tyler Bennett had withdrawn his candidacy prior to interviews. No additional procedural conditions or staggered seating details were specified in the meeting minutes.
