SUBJECT: Amended 2023 Municipal Election: SL County Interlocal Cooperation
Agreement
STAFF CONTACT: Olivia Hoge, Elections Management Coordinator
IMPORTANT DATES:
•October 31, 2023: Return the signed Amended Interlocal Cooperation Agreement.
LEGISLATION: Resolution to approve the Amended Interlocal Cooperation Agreement
BUDGET IMPACT: $228,000 Total Election Cost with the Salt Lake City District 7 Race
In May, the Council passed a resolution approving the Interlocal Cooperation Agreement with Salt Lake
County to conduct the 2023 Municipal Election using the Ranked Choice Voting Method. The races that
were agreed to be listed on the ballot were as follows:
Salt Lake City Council District 2
Salt Lake City Council District 4
Salt Lake City Council District 6
Salt Lake City Mayor
Due to the timing of the vacancy of Salt Lake City Council District 7, that seat will need to be added to the
ballot as a two-year term. The estimated cost to add this seat will make the total election cost $228,000.
Salt Lake County was unable to provide the amended interlocal agreement before the date the ballots were
printed, they put the District 7 race on the ballot as the City Council had been informed of this necessity
when this vacancy occurred. Salt Lake City is anticipating the approval of this interlocal agreement and
cost adjustment.
