Today’s spotlight: Cathy Carlat
Title: Mayor, City of Peoria
Background: Since taking office in 2005, Carlat has prioritized fiscal responsibility and government accountability. Elected as Peoria’s first female Mayor in 2015, she remains dedicated to leading Peoria into its finest future.
Source of pride: “I’ve been able to create environments that bless and strengthen families: The Veteran’s Memorial, which provides space to honor the service of loved ones with everlasting inscriptions; and the preservation of Sunrise Mountain, a sanctuary that will forever be a place of beauty and refuge for Peoria residents.”
Surprising fact: “I’m a history geek and I try to include historic locations in every vacation. Pompeii is one of my favorite sites.”
