The Eagle Mountain City Council minutes, as summarized by The Utah Ledger, name Rich Wood among the members voting no on 30 agenda items. Minutes do not always record each member's vote, so this list does not show how Rich Wood voted on other items. On a motion to deny, table or continue, a no vote is a vote against that motion. It is not a score or a rating.
