Council adopts updated Powder Mountain law-enforcement MOU with Weber County

Jul 29, 2026

Council adopted Resolution 2026-27 approving an interlocal MOU with Weber County covering law enforcement and search-and-rescue at Powder Mountain; the MOU shifts prior in-lieu tax arrangements to a billable-hours approach and includes an initial three-year term with annual renewals.

The full story

Cache County staff presented a revised interlocal memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Weber County that governs law enforcement and search-and-rescue cooperation at Powder Mountain. Staff said the prior MOU dated to the 1990s and that the updated agreement removes in-lieu tax arrangements and instead frames services in terms of billable hours or negotiated contributions when usage increases. The presenter noted the Powder Mountain area historically generates very few calls within Cache County and that reciprocal responses and shared search-and-rescue protocols already operate informally.
