In the race for Council Seat D in Summit County, Alison Pitt bested Clark Kain by more than 60 percent of delegate votes, meaning there will be no primary runoff.

Pitt, who is the county Republican Party treasurer, said her campaign will focus on how Summit County should transition from a commission-form of government to one with a five-member council and appointed county manager.

In November, Summit County residents will elect their first County Council. All five seats up for election are at-large positions.

Pitt, who is a native of the more rural eastern side of the county but now resides near Park City, said she has the ability to represent all Summit County residents.

"I want to work in the new government to select a county manager who will listen to the people and be accountable to the people," she said.

Other Summit Republicans on the County Council ballot include William Miles for Seat A, Richard Butler for Seat B, Thomas Hurd for Seat C and David Ure for Seat E. They were unopposed within party ranks.

In Heber City, Wasatch County Convention delegates gave Republican incumbent Kendall Crittenden more than 60 percent of their tally for Council Seat D that represents south Heber City. He bested challengers Nick Provost and Julie Hardman and will not face a primary.

Crittenden said his 3 1/2 years on the council have prepared him well for a second term.

"It has been a steep learning curve," he said. "But I believe the [current] council has been effective and has accomplished many good things."

Other Republicans on the ballot for Wasatch County Council seats include Steve Farrell for Seat B, Mike Kohler for Seat E and Kipp Bangerter for Seat G. They were unopposed by fellow Republicans.
