The Salt Lake County Council is scheduled to consider an interlocal cooperation agreement with the University of Utah during its council meeting on Nov. 3, 2026, according to the published agenda. The agreement, listed on the CivicClerk agenda portal, is between Salt Lake County and the University of Utah on behalf of the Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute.
According to the agenda text, the agreement covers a “Data Center Toolkit” paired with a “Housing Needs Assessment.” The published document identifies itself as “This Interlocal Cooperation Agreement (this ‘Agreement’)” entered into by and between Salt Lake County, described as a body corporate, and the University of Utah.
The agenda item matters to residents because it pairs two distinct policy products under one interlocal agreement: a toolkit addressing data-center development and a separate assessment of housing needs in the county, according to the agenda record. The full scope and provisions of each component are not detailed beyond the agreement’s title and parties in the published excerpt.
