The Toquerville City Council approved a slate of appointments and representative assignments, including planning-commission seats and city representation to regional service districts.

The council appointed Dean Haymore and Lonnie Christiansen to four-year terms on the Planning Commission. The council also appointed Myla (Mila) Allison as a Planning Commission alternate after Allison introduced herself and described a background in architectural design and construction and said she wants to help manage growth responsibly.

"We all know that growth is inevitable," Allison told the council. "I want to see that be done responsibly and I'd like to be a part of that." She said she and her family moved to Toquerville about two years ago and that her professional background includes interior architectural planning and commercial-construction experience.

Council members reappointed Gary Chaves as Toquerville's mayor pro tempore for calendar year 2025.

The council also approved several representative assignments: Wayne Olsen to the Washington County Solid Waste District, Todd to continue as the city's representative to the Southwest Mosquito Abatement District, Mayor Sipp to continue as the Irken Valley Fire Special Service District representative, Joey Campbell as the city's representative to the Ash Creek Special Service District and Mayor Sipp as the city's mayoral representative to the Ash Creek administrative council. All motions were approved by voice or roll-call votes recorded as carried.

Council members thanked Allison for volunteering and noted a shortage of volunteers for some advisory roles; they encouraged resident participation in commissions and special districts.
