Mayor Wood lists Ramona Lopez as nominee to Civilian Review Board

Mayor Wood placed two nominations on the South Salt Lake City Council agenda for its April 15, 2026 meeting, naming Ramona Lopez as a regular member and Kacie O'Maley as an alternate member of the Civilian Review Board.

The agenda lists the appointments under "Appointments by the Mayor." Ramona Lopez's application packet included a resume that states she currently works as an Accounting Specialist at Spectrum Field Services (April 2024–present) and previously served as Central Supply Supervisor at St. Joseph's Villa. Her application materials assert, "I am seeking a challenging position where I can leverage my skills, abilities, and leadership qualities to contribute significantly to the success of an organization." That language appears in the materials provided with the agenda rather than as a verbatim spoken remark during a recorded council motion.

Lopez's resume in the packet also lists prior experience as owner/operator of a private esthetics business and other administrative roles. The agenda item identifies "Mayor Wood" as the nominating official; the packet does not include a recorded vote, motion text, or confirmation outcome for either nominee in the segments supplied.

The Civilian Review Board appointment appears as an agenda item (Appointments by the Mayor). The agenda packet indicates the meeting was posted on April 10, 2026; no staff recommendation, council discussion, or final action on the nominations is recorded in the provided segments. The council's rules for confirming board members, any required ordinances or code citations, and the nominees' hearing or interview schedule are not listed in the supplied transcript.

Next steps: The agenda shows the nominations on the April 15 docket; the packet does not record whether the council moved, seconded, or voted on those nominations. Interested parties should consult the official meeting minutes or a later recorded segment for the result of the nominations.
