This fall, Ogden Valley is at a pivotal moment in its history as the community explores the path toward becoming its own city. With local elections just around the corner, MTN Buff has launched a special podcast series to bring you closer to the people who may be shaping the valley’s future. Our goal is simple: provide transparency, share stories, and give residents the knowledge they need to make informed decisions.
In this series, Paden Anderson and Whitney Sterner sit down with both mayoral candidates—Janet Wampler and Shanna Francis—to talk through their visions, experiences, and priorities for Ogden Valley. These conversations are not about politics as usual—they’re about the heart of the valley, the challenges it faces, and the opportunities ahead.

Janet Wampler shares her journey, her background as a long-time community member, and her vision for the valley if elected mayor. From her perspective on preserving the unique identity of Ogden Valley to navigating growth and development, Janet highlights what she believes are the most pressing issues for residents.
