How the council changed in 2025
Lehi voters elected a new mayor and two new council members in November 2025. Paul Binns, a local insurance agency owner, beat Councilmember Paige Albrecht 53.5% to 46.5%, and James Harrison and Rachel Freeman won the two open council seats, the Lehi Free Press reported. None had served on a city body before. Albrecht resigned her council seat in December, and Emily Lockhart, a planning commissioner who finished third in the council race, was chosen to serve the remaining two years. Turnout was 33.7% of Lehi's 44,167 registered voters.
How Lehi's government works
- Six elected officials: the mayor and five council members together are the city's policy-making and legislative body, under what Lehi calls its six-member form of government.
- At-large seats. Everyone is elected citywide; Lehi has no council districts.
- Staggered four-year terms, so part of the council is on the ballot every two years. The next city election is in 2027, for the three seats whose terms end January 2028.
That's similar to Orem, where all seats are also at-large; see our Orem City Council guide. Provo uses districts for most seats; see following the Provo City Council.
