Leading Together: Mayors, Councils, and Effective Governance in Utah’s Mayor-Council Cities

webinar-registration

This webinar will examine the distinct powers and duties of mayors and council members serving under Utah’s mayor-council form of government, where executive and legislative authority are divided between two separate but coequal branches. Participants will explore how mayors and councils can respect statutory roles, communicate effectively, build productive working relationships, and align policy direction with day-to-day administration. The session will also address practical strategies for preventing and resolving conflicts between the legislative body and executive branch so city officials can serve residents with greater efficiency, professionalism, and public trust.
