Meet Sara Cimmers
A mother, former educator, advocate, and lifelong Utahn running for Salt Lake County Council.
Sara Cimmers is running because she believes our communities thrive when no one is left behind.
A Life Rooted in Service
A mother, former educator, advocate, and lifelong Utahn, Sara knows firsthand the challenges that families face every day— rising housing costs, underfunded schools, economic uncertainty, and a government that too often feels out of reach.
She is not a career politician. She is someone who has lived the realities may people in our community are facing and chose to step forward because she believes leadership begins with service.
What Sara Believes
Service
Helping others is an honor, not a burden.
Compassion
Government should lead with kindness, accountability, and care.
Why I’m Running
Possibility
Big dreams begin with real work.
I’m running because families deserve a county government that listens, responds, and genuinely cares.
I believe in putting families and seniors first, expanding housing security and affordability, supporting public education, and creating a government that works for people — not politics.
A Future Worth Building
This campaign is about bringing people together, leading with heart, and believing that hard work can make the seemingly impossible possible. Sara believes big dreams begin with real work, and that when a community comes together with purpose and compassion, there is no challenge too great to overcome.
