Send us a textWant to know how a small city can protect its red rock vistas and still welcome new families? We sit down with a 31-year-old Ivins candidate who makes a clear, practical case for balancing heritage, housing, and modern city management—without turning the place into another resort corridor. He shares how growing up in Ivins, interning at the Utah Capitol, and working on statewide campaigns shaped a leadership style that blends clear principles with real listening, especially to younger residents who rarely see themselves on the council.We dig into attainable housing mandates from the state and what a thoughtful, design-first response looks like: mixed housing near parks and paths, duplexes and quads that match neighborhood character, and targeted density along Highway 91 where infrastructure can support it. On the revenue side, we get into property taxes, constrained city funding models, and why smarter tools—like a narrowly scoped sales tax for public safety and even autonomous mowers to free staff for higher-impact work—can stretch dollars without sacrificing service. Throughout, he argues for a walkable fabric of small businesses—clinics, family restaurants, kid-friendly activities—that keep life local and sales tax steady.Environmental protection is non-negotiable: water planning with the conservancy district, protecting Night Sky and Snow Canyon viewsheds, and accelerating land trusts through the Open Spaces Committee to preserve working farms and the rural feel. He also calls for a digital-first civic process: opt-in alerts for zone changes, short resident surveys, and regular plan updates so the data guiding decisions stays current. It's a candid, hopeful blueprint for a city that holds on to what it loves while making room for who's next.Please make sure you like and subscribe, share it with other voters throughout Washington County to help them make informed decisions in the upcoming election.

The Artful Painter returns! It's good to be back in the saddle again. My friend, Chris Kolupski kindly and patiently agreed to help me dust off my recording equipment and bring the Artful Painter back to life. Chris was originally featured back in episode 56 published back in 2021. That was a couple of years before we loaded up the wagons and moved to the Western Slope of Colorado. In this edition of the Artful Painter, Chris Kolupski talks about his unique artist education experience he calls: “Paint Out West.” To me, Chris Kolupski is The Indiana Jones of Outdoor Painting – and for good reason! He's not only an excellent landscape painter and educator, he is an adventurer who loves painting the American South West. Of course, any adventure can certainly come with its own perils. Chris calmly takes these mis-adventures in stride. In this episode he shares the following experiences: He crashed his car into a cow in the middle of the night in New Mexico! Chris made daring attempts to rescue a camera that fell over a cliff! He escaped prosecution after getting caught inadvertently trespassing while teaching a class. In the middle of Navaho land, Chris founds himself on a horse that doesn't want him on his back And then there's that time he got told off by a rude photographer in Arches National Park! Tune in for a blend of humor, inspiration, and practical advice. I'd like to welcome you to this edition of The Artful Painter!
