Kerry Gibson Meets the GEM Committee



Kerry Gibson, a candidate for the Weber County Commission seat B, was a guest speaker at the GEM committee meeting on Wednesday night. The GEM committee plans to host all candidates (Amy Wicks, Drew Johnson and Jan Zogmaister) for the Weber County Commission seats at later GEM meetings this election year.


Mr. Gibson, who lives in West Weber County, came across as a affable yet serious man at the meeting. He is a Dairy Farmer by trade and has served 6 years in the Utah State legislature. He has also formerly served on the West Weber County Planning Commission.


Mr. Gibson talked about his political philosophy and emphasized his commitment to private property rights. His wife’s family lives in the Ogden Valley and he indicated he is aware of the ongoing development issues that concern Ogden Valley residents. He stated he had been briefed on the ongoing Powder Mountain rezone issue.


The Ogden Valley Forum intends to submit written questions to all candidates for the Weber County Commission seats to ascertain their positions on important issues such as Ethics, property development, helicopter activity in the Valley and Ogden Valley zoning changes that will impact our Valley in the future. The candidates responses or lack of responses to those questions will be published on the Ogden Valley blog.
