During the 2021 Election cycle the Candidates for Mayor and City Council for Eagle Mountain City collected $58,353.10 in contributions prior to 10/26/2021 and spent a total of $32,186.00. The candidates are required to keep a ledger of their contributions and their expenses. They then have to report those expenses and contributions to the City Recorder to be made public. I have taken those documents and have created this article that summarizes them as well as puts the information in a “more usable” format for the residents of Eagle Mountain. Because the Mayoral race did not require a primary this is the first 2021 filing for Clark and Westmoreland. You can find the same breakdown for Westmoreland for the 2017 election cycle here. The City Council candidates did another filing prior to the primary, you can see that information here.
