Johnny Gorum , City Council Member

Mr. Gorum moved to West Wendover in February of 1993 when he was the District Manager for Fly Nevada. Since then, he has been actively involved in promoting West Wendover and its local gaming as a destination resort, presently and for the last year serving as the Flight Program Manager for the Peppermill, Rainbow and Montego Bay Casinos.

When being asked why he wanted to be a City Council Member, Mr. Gorum replied, “I have been a resident of West Wendover for 12 years and I feel very strongly that it is time that I give something back to the community which has been so good to me. Serving as a Council Member is one such way to do just that.”

Emily Carter , City Council Member

Emily was appointed to the West Wendover City Council on February 7, 2006, filling the open vacancy left by departing Council Member Viola Troyan. 

Emily and her husband moved to West Wendover in June of 1997 seeking employment opportunities.  She was hired shortly after moving to West Wendover by the Peppermill Hotel & Casino as the Human Resources Secretary and two years later, in August of 1999, was promoted to the Payroll Manager at a sister-company, the Rainbow Hotel & Casino.  In August of 2005, Emily left her employment making the decision that it was ever more so important to spend quality time with their children, which now totaled five, and pursue secondary education, specifically an Elementary Education degree from Utah State University. 

She has served on the West Wendover Elementary PTO for the last three years and is currently its President.  She has also served as a member of the Miss Wendover Scholarship Program Committee as well as being involved in various other community organizations. Emily considers herself to be very dedicated to the continued growth of the community and when asked what she most enjoys doing during her spare time, she said, "I love to spend time with my kids and their scrapbook".

Charles "Roy" Briggs, City Council Member

After many years of living and working in the San Francisco Bay area, Roy and his wife Leanna set out in search of a place where they could get away from the hectic demands of big city living.  In September of 1989, that search ended when they found West Wendover and subsequently made it their home.

Today, West Wendover is at the threshold of what should be a very bright future.  Roy is both honored and humbled that the citizens of this community have given him this opportunity to represent their voices in the many important decisions that lie in front of us as a community.
