Inscription. James William Clyde was Heber's first mayor in 1902 and served again from 1908 to 1910. He was a member of the state house of representatives in 1899 and served as a state senator from 1820 to 1924. Clyde was also president of the Bank of Heber City for ten years. James married Mary Campbell and together they raised eight children. Beyond his civic roles, he was instrumental in organizing the Heber Light and Power Plant, which brought electricity to the area, and was one of the founders of the Bank of Heber City. Despite personal financial sacrifices, he worked tirelessly to support the institution during challenging times. James Clyde was a man of action, a tireless worker, and a firm believer in self-reliance. His legacy is one of community building, service, and unwavering commitment to the growth and prosperity of Heber Valley.
