Dave Robinson: Governing Better
Not Division and Empty Promises
Dave Robinson isn’t a career politician, a culture-war personality, or a professional outrage merchant. He’s a policy advocate, mediator, and problem-solver who has spent years working on complex public issues—often behind the scenes—because the work mattered, not because it was popular.
Dave believes leadership means listening carefully, studying the details, and making decisions that serve the long-term public good. This campaign isn't about the theater of politics; it's about the competence of governing.
Values: What Dave Believes
- Truth Before Theater: Policy should be built on facts, evidence, and intellectual honesty—not fear or slogans.
- Public Good Over Special Interests: Government decisions should benefit individuals and communities, not political insiders or connected donors.
- Respectful Leadership: Disagreement doesn’t require division. Progress requires trust and a seat at the table for everyone.
- Transparency: Open processes build public confidence. When the "Establishment" hides behind closed doors, the public loses.
The Robinson Record: Proven Results
Dave’s work isn’t flashy—it’s real, and it lasts.
- The Infill Revolution: A steward of wise and efficient land use, Robinson entitles projects like Hoyt Place to provide workforce housing. Even with headwinds from antiquated ordinances and entrenched policies, he successfully rezones blighted inner blocks to create high-quality, sustainable communities.
- The Brighton Blueprint: A key participant in the movement to incorporate the Town of Brighton, proving that local control is essential—even when a community is surrounded by 72% federal land.
- Protecting Public Access: Helped secure long-term public access to Cardiff Fork by bringing landowners, agencies, user groups, and the public together—without the need for political theater or expensive lawsuits.
- Standing Up for Homeowners: Dave is the only candidate naming the specific "Frustrating Loops" and lobbyist conflicts that allow predatory HOAs to strip equity from Utah families.
