Summary

Mantua — Judge Kevin Nelson administered the oath of office to the newly sworn mayor and council members during a brief town council meeting, and the body adjourned shortly afterward.
An invocation led by a resident identified as Scott opened the meeting, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance. The presiding official invited public comment but none was offered. The council then asked Judge Kevin Nelson to swear in the new mayor and council members. Nelson led the oath, saying, "I do solemnly swear" as the officials repeated the pledge to support and defend the constitutions of the United States and the state of Utah and to discharge their duties "with fidelity." The transcript does not specify the names of the individuals sworn in.
After the oath, several speakers offered brief thanks to volunteers and supporters. One council member noted the town's growth, saying it "might need a bigger room" as more people attend meetings. An announcement followed that refreshments provided by Sharita were available in the hall.
An unidentified official moved to adjourn; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The presiding official declared the meeting adjourned.
No formal votes on ordinances, resolutions or budgets were recorded in the transcript, and no public comments were made during the allotted period.
