Utah Assoc. Counties

Good @uac29 meeting today with County Commissioners from across the state. We covered a wide range of topics, from wildfires to cybersecurity. We also heard from Speaker @mschultz_12, who gave a preview of the upcoming legislative session, with a big focus on lowering the gas tax and building up energy production. Senator @danmccay also shared updates on some of his property tax reform efforts.

More than 60% of the nation's 3,069 counties have federal public lands within their borders. The Payment in Lieu of Taxes program eases revenue burdens for public lands counties, enhancing their ability to provide essential public services. Learn more: bit.ly/3IdRtIY

This week in Washington, D.C., leaders from public lands counties are meeting with more than 80 federal partners to share how Payments in Lieu of Taxes and the Secure Rural Schools program impact local communities. Learn more about these programs: bit.ly/3IdRtIY

Utah’s tourism industry and local leaders teamed up to craft HB 456, a legislative blueprint designed to ease the monetary pinch on small counties playing host to wanderlust-filled visitors. @uac29 @VisitUtah utahbusiness.com/industry/2025/…

A long day of learning all about water from @UtahDNR Joel Ferry, public lands from @SeanReyesUT, data privacy, housing affordability from @WaldripSteve and Senate legislation from Senator Cullimore at @uac29

@MikeLMower We love @GovCox’s team! Thanks for coming to Garfield County today!

Fun times! Joining commissioners and council members from Rich to Washington, Box Elder to San Juan counties here in Bryce Canyon City to talk public safety, housing, water, public lands. @uac29. 🇺🇸

To those on the ballot, THANK YOU for your willingness to serve. We look forward to many of you joining our ranks. To those who haven't yet voted, it's not too late! Visit your county clerk's website to learn more.

Election workers are your neighbors and friends. As we wait for polls to close, ballots to be counted, processes to be audited, and results to be certified, please be patient—and know that you elected the best of Utah to do the job.

UTAH! Get your ballots in! One week left until Election Day! Have questions? Your county clerk has an answer!

Today we were honored to recognize county commissioners who will no longer be in office in 2025. Grateful for the hard work of these dedicated public servants - local government is the backbone of our communities, and truly help us create #OneUtah.

Great to connect with county reps & staff at the @uac29 annual convention. Shout out to Commissioners Bob Stevenson (Davis County), Blaine Fackrell (Morgan County), and Lee Perry (Box Elder County) for taking a selfie with WFRC's Marcia White. Thank you for your public service!

The @uac29 was formed in 1924 to help counties provide effective county government to Utah’s citizens. We are proud to support UAC and hope to see you at this week’s UAC Annual Convention. Stop by booth #22 to meet Marcus Keller and Trever Kreutzer. #CrewsandAssociates

A beautiful day @HobbleCreekGolf! Thank you to all our sponsors and players who helped us kick off our annual convention week. If you missed us this year, plan to join us next year!
