Growth is the biggest issue for Utah County Commission candidates

Provo • Republican Tanner Ainge and his third-party opponent Teri McCabe both said managing central Utah’s fast growth is at the top of their priority list as they run for the same county commission seat.

Ainge and United Utah candidate McCabe are both hoping to replace Utah County Commissioner Greg Graves, The Daily Herald reported. No Democratic candidate has filed to run for the seat.

The son of former NBA star Danny Ainge said he was encouraged to run after a sexual harassment complaint surfaced against the current commissioner.

"It concerned me, it concerned a lot of people in the business community and in the state Legislature," Ainge said.
