Oath of Office

RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Oath of office administered by notary public, Cathie Griffiths                     

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

The Utah Public Transit District Act (17B-2a-808.2) establishes a nine-member Local Advisory Council with members appointed by Council of Government (COG) bodies across the UTA service district. Statute indicates that the Salt Lake County Council of Governments shall appoint three members to the Local Advisory Council and Davis County Council of Governments shall appoint one member. Additionally, UTA Bylaws Article 1, section 3 stipulate that the oath of office must be administered to Local Advisory Council (LAC) members before commencing the duties of the office.

Troy Walker, Robert Hale, and Clint Smith have been serving as the Salt Lake County COG appointees and Eric Craythorne has been serving as the Davis County COG appointee since late 2018.  Robert Hale, Clint Smith, and Eric Craythorne are no longer serving on the LAC which leaves three LAC seats open. 

UTA and fellow LAC members appreciate the service given by outgoing LAC members Eric Craythorne, Robert Hale, and Clint Smith.

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

On January 19, 2022 the Davis County COG voted to appoint Howard Madsen as a member of the LAC representing Davis County. On January 20, 2022 Salt Lake County COG voted to appoint Dan Peay and Trent Staggs as members of the LAC representing Salt Lake County.  Troy Walker continues to serve as the other Salt Lake County COG appointee.
