RE: Amendments to Eccles Theater Related Interlocal Agreements
REQUESTED ACTION: Adopt two resolutions approving changes to the two separate interlocal
agreements
POLICY ITEM: Amending Interlocal Agreements
BUDGET IMPACTS: N/A
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: As part of the joint operation of the Eccles Theater, the RDA, Salt Lake City,
and Salt Lake County entered two separate interlocal agreements in 2013. The first interlocal agreement
creates and sets forth the formation and obligations of the interlocal entity called the Utah Performing Arts
Center Agency (UPACA). The second interlocal agreement, entitled the “Utah Performing Arts Center
Operating Agreement,” details the terms of the management and operation of the Eccles Theater. When
both interlocal agreements were initially executed, the parties agreed that the UPACA entity would maintain
its own policy of insurance for the theater. However, the parties have since learned that maintaining
insurance through the County will generate significant savings for the parties. To realize these costs savings,
both interlocal agreements need to be amended.
REQUESTED ACTION: The UPACA Board of Directors voted and approved the amendments to both
interlocal agreements on July 13, 2022. In accordance with the terms of the interlocal agreements and the
Interlocal Cooperation Act, the RDA Board of Directors may consider approving these proposed
amendments through resolutions. The resolutions attached to this memo include the proposed amended
interlocal agreements. Similar action will need to be taken by the Salt Lake City Council on behalf of the
City.
