| Salt Lake COG |
|
The Salt Lake County Council of Governments is made up of the mayors of each municipality in the county as well as a city council representative from each of the cities of the first class. There are also two county council members and the County mayor who are members of the COG. This group has historically been a group that dealt with issues that cross city boundaries, such as transportation, watershed, air quality, public safety, etc. In 2006, as a result of legislative action, a local transportation corridor preservation fund was created and the COG was charged with coordinating property purchases for future roads in the county. 70% of that vehicle registration fee was diverted to the Mountain View Corridor in 2007 and the COG and the County Council were tasked with the responsibility of prioritizing projects that could be considered for the funds. The Council of Governments has subcommittees that deal with Air Quality, Transportation, Public Safety, Human Services, Arts and Humanities, Intergovernmental Relations. The COG meets monthly in addition to a yearly meeting with the County Council and another annual meeting with the SL County legislators. Click here for the Salt Lake COG's current agenda. Minutes will be posted after the Salt Lake COG, usually at the next meeting, approves them.
