Is the Utah State Legislature Unaware of How Much They Are Spending on Mountain Accord?

During Wednesday’s Summit County Council meeting, council member Dave Ure said he would be surprised if more than a handful of Utah State Legislators knew what was being spent by them on the Mountain Accord. Mr. Ure, having been in the Legislature, probably knows better than most what is being paid attention to.

It also appears that an appropriation measure of $5 million for Mountain Accord has recently been put before the body.

If you think your legislator may be unaware of the costs being spent on Mountain Accord ($22 million projected) versus other areas that are being underfunded, you may want to contact them.
