Thank You to My Supporters
Running for mayor is not something you do alone. It takes people who believe in your vision, your values, and your track record. I’m deeply grateful to those who have invested in this campaign—not just with funds, but with encouragement, trust, and belief in the future of Eagle Mountain.

This campaign is powered by residents, not outside developers or special interest groups. These donations reflect a desire for accountable, accessible, and thoughtful leadership.

Below are just a few of the individuals and organizations whose support has meant the world to me:

​

Jacinda Montano | Eagle Mountain Resident & Business Leader
A mortgage broker who became a trusted advisor to me on housing affordability, Jacinda helped me understand how zoning proposals would impact future homebuyers. Her support reflects a shared belief in smart, data-informed policymaking.

“Melissa brings people together. She truly listens. She gets things done. Melissa Clark is exactly the kind of leader Eagle Mountain needs right now.” – Jacinda Montano

 

Colby Curtis | Eagle Mountain City Council, 2016–2023
Colby and I served together from 2018 to 2021. He understands what’s required to lead with principle, transparency, and action.

“Melissa is one of the hardest-working individuals I’ve ever met. She has strong guiding principles of limited government, transparency, and collaboration. She’s open-minded and reasonable, while being committed to keeping Eagle Mountain suburban/rural in nature. Melissa Clark has my vote and support for Eagle Mountain Mayor.” – Colby Curtis

 

Commissioner Skyler Beltran | Utah County Commissioner
Skyler and I have worked together on key issues like school redistricting and county-wide transportation.

“Melissa has been an ally and defender of property rights and a strong advocate for small businesses and local economic growth. With Eagle Mountain expected to be the county’s most significant growth center in the coming years, I believe Melissa’s leadership would be an asset to the city and the region.” – Skyler Beltran

​

Nicole Miles | Eagle Mountain Resident & Parks Advocate
Nicole and her sons first reached out in 2016 about the need for a skate park. They organized, educated, and helped secure funding for the Smith Ranch Park expansion.

“Melissa listened. She took the time to understand the needs of our community, and she worked hard to make them a reality. She doesn’t just talk—she acts.” – Nicole Miles

 

Bryan Jeppson | Eagle Mountain Business Owner
I met Bryan while he was transitioning from a home-based garage to building his own auto shop. A long-time Eagle Mountain resident, Bryan reminds me of my dad—quietly improving his community with honest work and quiet strength.

 

Geri & Chris Bohn | Eagle Mountain Business Owners
I met the Bohns during the early stages of their business here in Eagle Mountain. Their perspective has helped me understand how policy can either enable or hinder entrepreneurship. I’m grateful for their partnership and insights.

 

Dana & Rachael Smith| Eagle Mountain Business Owners
New business owners when I met them through Chamber events like ShopFest Utah and Business Boot Camp. Supporting them—and watching them thrive—has been one of the great rewards of serving this community.

​

Jefferson Moss | Former Utah House of Representatives
Jeff has served Eagle Mountain and Saratoga Springs in multiple leadership roles. He’s been a mentor and advisor to me in areas from education to economic development.

​

Carolina Herrin | Utah County and Grassroots Volunteer
Carolina and I met as delegates and volunteers with the Utah County Republican Party. Over time, we’ve become friends and collaborators on key issues impacting our city and county.

​

The Governing Group PAC
In 2021, I lost the mayoral race by 207 votes. My opponent had over $10,000 in contributions from developers and outside interests, while I ran a people-powered campaign—knocking doors and attending local meetings.

This time around, I knew I would need to avail myself of the latest campaigning technology, while staying rooted in local priorities and values.  I have accepted a cash donation and in-kind contribution from The Governing Group PAC—some web updates, graphic design, video editing, and access to voter communication tools. Their Executive Director, Kyle Friant, once lived in Eagle Mountain and still has family ties to our community and a deep respect for local autonomy. Other leaders like Chris Carn, Natalie Hall, Lorin Palmer, Melissa Sauser, and Julie King are also working with the Governing Group.

Let me be clear: I do not take direction from outside groups. I lead this campaign with my own voice and values, always putting Eagle Mountain first. The Governing Group has simply helped me access campaigning resources so I can better reach residents with my message.

 

Chandler Fausett | Eagle Mountain Business Owner
Chandler is a local entrepreneur who has helped many Eagle Mountain businesses grow their visibility. He donated a campaign video because he believes in the work I’ve done and the vision we’re building for this city.

 

Nathan & Melissa Clark
Nathan and I have personally contributed to this campaign because we believe in what it stands for. Campaigns are expensive—especially in a city of over 75,000 residents—and we’ve made the conscious decision to invest in outreach that’s personal, principled, and effective.

​

Whenever possible, I use local vendors and small businesses for signs, printing, mailers, and events. I treat every donation with care and a deep sense of responsibility. This campaign is run with the same philosophy I bring to public office: practical, thoughtful, community-focused.

Every dollar helps us build a better Eagle Mountain—together.
