“For the past 7 years I have worked closely with Tish Buroker on the City Council. I have found her to be an excellent leader and the best choice to serve as our future mayor. When an issue arises that affects the city and it’s residents, she does thorough research, collaborates with residents, employees, and city officials. She then comes to a well thought out decision with the goal being what is best for Riverton. Not just in the emotional moment of that issue, but with a long term perspective. She genuinely wants Riverton to continue to be a forward thinking, economically sound city and that we can continue to enjoy the wonderful lifestyle it already has.”
Riverton City Councilman Spencer Haymond
“As a member of the City Council, I respect and trust Tish. I know she has strong corporate leadership experience and is competent and comfortable working with a large city budget. She understands the budget process and is fiscally prudent and conservative.
She is thoughtful in her deliberations and willing to learn and consider all sides of an issue. As our mayor she will provide stable and experienced leadership.”

“Serving with Tish on the Riverton City Council, I have witnessed her unique ability to seek a variety of perspectives and make decisions based on community needs, free of personal agenda. Her genuine commitment makes her an invaluable and influential voice for our community.
Due to her leadership I nominated Tish to serve on the Intermountain Salt Lake Valley Hospital Clinical Excellence Committee which has been a difficult position to fill. Her nursing expertise and insightful questions have been crucial in guiding healthcare improvements.”

“Tish was one of my strongest advocates in pushing for the scholarship for the Youth Council.

This scholarship will benefit me, and future Youth Council Members to be able to help shape Riverton’s future.”

Former HR Manager for LabCorp Rose Gledhill
“As the former Human Resource manager for LabCorp I worked side by side with Tish for over 10 years. She was always levelheaded, fair and pragmatic in her decisions. She was also very supportive of all the employees. I would observe her coming to work on mornings after a heavy snow and clean the windshields of all the night employees. She exemplified servant leadership as an employee and will as Riverton Mayor.”

“Riverton needs a mayor who knows the city, cares about its people, and gets things done, Tish brings decades of leadership, from running multi-state healthcare operations to rolling up her sleeves in local service. She’s not just experienced – she's deeply invested in this community.
Whether she’s working on public safety, preserving Riverton’s history, or improving city services, Tish leads with purpose, heart, and results. She shows up, she listens, and she follows through. That’s the kind of leadership Riverton deserves.”

“I served with Tish Buroker on the city council. I found her to be logical in her decision making, forward thinking in her direction, and very conservative with tax payer money. Her business experience away from the city and her excellent people skills have served, and will continue to serve the city well. I highly endorse Tish as the next mayor.”
