Salt Lake City Councilman Darin Mano has tested positive for the coronavirus.

Mano, 35, is the newest city council member, and took office in January. He filled the District 5 seat, which Erin Mendenhall vacated after being sworn in as Salt Lake City mayor.

Mano is a small business owner and architect. According to a news release, Mano believes he was exposed to COVID-19 during a trip to Washington, D.C., early this month.

Five other council members were with Mano on the trip. Those members are taking precautions to prevent possible spread.
