Kevin Oyler
for
Spanish Fork City Council
Deep Roots and Homegrown Values

Kevin has deep and unusual roots in Spanish Fork. While most kids were talking about school or telling corny jokes around the dinner table, Kevin's family discussed city budget issues and other city projects. Kevin's dad was City Manager for 40 years. "I inherited from my parents a deep love for Spanish Fork and constant searching for ways to make it even better. It's more than home to me, it's part of who I am."

Kevin and his wife Angela want to keep Spanish Fork a great hometown where their four kids can one day live and raise a family. Kevin is kind of a data nerd, whose education and job as Senior Business Intelligence Analyst at Nu Skin, have made him an expert at gathering pertinent data and analyzing that data to make good decisions.

He currently serves on the Planning Commission, where he was elected by his fellow Commissioners to serve as Chair. As a Commissioner, he does his best to listen, be fair and work towards solutions that are beneficial to everyone involved.

"Spanish Fork is not only a place people want to move to, but more importantly, it's a place people want to stay."
Growth and Housing Costs



Serving on the City's Planning Commission for the past four years will allow me to hit the ground running when it comes to the issue of growth. I know and understand the General Plan, the city's municipal code and I understand the importance of making sure increased density is only allowed in locations where it has been planned for. It's also important we preserve as much open space as possible to help maintain the small town feel we have all come to love and enjoy.
The Budget

I believe that we must prioritize the core functions of government like infrastructure and Public Safety before talking about the amenities, but recognize that quality of life issues are also important budget items. One of my spending priorities will always be Public Safety and I will work to make sure our emergency first responders always have the tools they need to keep themselves and us safe.
