As the holidays arrive, our city is filled once again with the warmth, kindness, and togetherness that make West Jordan such a special place to call home. This season reminds us how powerful a simple act of neighborliness can be—checking on a friend, supporting a local business, or lending a hand to someone in need. These traditions are part of what binds our community, and they continue to shine brightly year after year.
The close of 2025 also brings the promise of a new year—one filled with possibilities, renewed focus, and opportunities for growth. Throughout the past year, our dedicated city staff has worked tirelessly to make West Jordan safer, more vibrant, and better connected. From the long-awaited opening of the 8600 South bridge to the launch of the new Canyon View Credit Union Community & Arts Center, and the many new businesses choosing to make West Jordan their home, we have much to celebrate and even more to look forward to in the year ahead.
As we reflect on the progress we’ve made, I want to extend my sincere gratitude to our outgoing council members, Kelvin Green and Pamela Bloom, for their years of service and meaningful contributions to our community. At the same time, I’m excited to welcome our two incoming council members, Jessica Wignall and Annette Harris. Their passion and commitment will help guide West Jordan into a bright and promising future.
And finally, I want to thank you—and all the residents of West Jordan—who make me proud to call this city home and honored to serve on this council. There is so much to admire in our community, and I know the best is yet to come. I wish each of you a joyful holiday season and an inspiring start to the new year.
Council Member Bob Bedore
