I have known Jessica since she moved to Mapleton and I have been so impressed with her kindness and her amazing knowledge of everything and her willingness to help and make life better for all with whom she comes in contact. She is patient and firm as she learns about what makes a city and a country better. She really does care about our beautiful city and all of the people who call it home. She will be a great asset to us and she knows what it will take to keep it the city that we all love.

One of the problems with the city council over the past couple of years was a lack of information and transparency. Jessica has already proven that she'll provide more visibility, as she has consistently provided a breakdown of each city meeting she has attended. She has posted this information on social media where she willingly discusses her views with whomever engages her in conversation. If you doubt this, check out her Facebook page "Jessica Egbert for Mapleton City Council." She doesn't have an agenda or business dealings that she is trying to protect, just a desire to serve her community.
Roberta JamesMapleton, Utah
Jessica has concrete and specific ideas on how to solve Mapleton's problems and preserve its unique character in the face of growth and development. Her promises are not just rhetorical but workable. I believe she is willing to put in the time and effort to reach out to Mapleton residents to inform them of pending issues and listen to their feedback as evidenced by her campaign. As a resident of Mapleton for over 50 years, I endorse Jessica Egbert for city council.
Dave LainhartMapleton, Utah
I first learned of Jessica's leadership abilities when she was one of the 40 Under 40 for Utah Valley Magazine. Since then, I have been very observant and very impressed on how she has a "People First Leadership" approach. This can be viewed throughout her entire campaign. She has had a straightforward, honest, pragmatic approach and I like her willingness to have crucial conversations about the topics at hand with anyone who is willing to talk to her about it. That is a leader that we all need to represent us well here in Mapleton.
Marcie PerritonMapleton, Utah
Jessica is more than qualified for City Council, but even more important is how genuine she is in wanting to serve our city. I have no doubt she will listen and find solutions for issues at hand. She will educate and inform our community. With the growth Mapleton is experiencing, I am so grateful to have someone like Jessica running.

Dr. Richard P. NielsenPresident, Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions - Provo, Utah
Eighteen years ago, I asked Jessica Egbert to help me do something few can even imagine – to build a university. Her hard work, innovation, integrity, and intelligence have resulted in new systems, processes, policies, and traditions that value people, outcomes, and quality of life. Her efforts have brought local and national recognition for the university and she has likewise received local and national accolades (e.g., awards, publications, leadership service, invited presentations). What makes Jessica unique is a combination of analytical, innovative, and people-centric skills. She perseveres through challenges and discovers new ways to solve problems – often in less time and under budget – while inspiring and elevating others along the way. Jessica takes initiative to learn and understand complex situations so she can make informed, mission-driven decisions. She is willing to get her hands dirty to solve problems and support her teams; she is a valued mentor to so many. A skilled strategist, communicator, and compassionate friend, I strongly endorse Dr. Jessica Egbert for the Mapleton City Council.

Jessica has a strong ability to research complex topics, break them down into a manageable size, and find workable solutions to fix the issues at hand. I have seen Jessica do this, successfully, in many settings -- including on the board of the Chamber of Commerce, on retreats where she spoke to women leaders in Utah County, within her own work setting, and more. It is rare to find someone that is as "book smart" as Jessica, that can also relate with any person she meets. She is humble, personable and funny!
