A Resolution of the Salt Lake County Council Authorizing Execution of an Interlocal Agreement with the Kearns Metro Township for Cooperation on a Quiet Title Action
body
Description: Salt Lake County is constructing a new library on property that includes portions of the road of 5375 South, between 4320 West and 4220 West, Kearns, UT 84118, which the Kearns Metro Township has closed and over which the Metro Township has granted the County an easement. The County records contain no recorded document confirming that the portion of 5375 South between 4320 West and 4220 West was ever dedicated to the public. The Subject Road has been used as a public road since 1965. The County desires to quiet title to the Subject Road as a thoroughfare dedicated to public use. C. Under Utah Code Ann. ? 72-5-104(2), the Metro Township is the relevant "highway authority" possessing jurisdictional authority over the Subject Road. Accordingly, the Metro Township has ultimate responsibility for asserting a public-use dedication by means of a quiet title action under Utah Code Ann. ? 72-5-104. The County has asked the Metro Township to file the Quiet Title Action on its behalf and is willing to reimburse all legal fees, costs, and expenses reasonably incurred in the prosecution of such action as provided in the Interlocal Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.
