1-15-6: VACANCIES IN OFFICE:
Publisher's Note: This Section has been AMENDED by new legislation (Ord. 24-11 , adopted 3-13-2024). The text of the amendment will be incorporated below when the ordinance is codified.
   A.   If a vacancy occurs in the Office of Mayor or on the City Council, through death, resignation, termination of required domicile, judicial removal from office, or due to becoming disabled and unable to perform the duties of the office, the City Council will appoint a registered voter who meets the qualifications of office by following the process in Utah Code 20A-1-510 or successor provisions.
   B.   In the case of a vacancy in the Office of the Mayor, the council chair will serve as acting mayor until a successor mayor is appointed. The council vice-chair shall be the acting council chair. The council chair will, however, continue to act as a council member and continue to vote at council meetings. (Ord. 20-44, 12-2-2020)
