Lehi Mayor’s Message I suspect for most of us, our greatest concern last December was filling open positions as we prepared for the upcoming year. The economy was strong, unemployment was almost nonexistent and whatever products we needed were easily accessible. Not one of us anticipated the change that was rapidly approaching. In January, we watched a new disease outbreak in Asia, and by mid-February, it had an official name: COVID-19. Soon after, we began to realize that the world was under the siege of a pandemic. We watched and our concern grew as health professionals, disease scientists and political leaders scrambled to determine the best course of action to combat this aggressive virus as it infiltrated the United States. It is scary and heavily debated, but one thing has become certain: this virus was so hostile, it demanded respect, and preventative action had to take place based on the po-
tential of its most damaging path. Health professionals and scientists needed time to prepare for what may come, and both the public and businesses were asked to deliver. I know that incredible sacrifices have been made. As a small business owner, I have been here with you in these very difficult times. As of this writing, there is still much speculation as to the outcome and the timing of when life will return to normal, but it will. Please understand that. This is not the first time we as a nation have suffered and overcome a treacherous disease, and, in fact, we are far better prepared to overcome and bounce back than even a few short years ago. Lehi City has been committed to continue providing all necessary services, and we are open with some restrictions necessary to provide a safe environment for you and our employees. We remain a dedicated partner with the efforts of the chamber and those businesses working to continue in providing the ser-
vices that have made you successful in the past. Lehi City remains the strongest business community along the Wasatch Front and will continue to be the ideal location for the success of your business. Mark Johnson Lehi City Mayor
