Mayor Woll leads Park City delegation to Courchevel for world championships event

The Summit County Council convened on January 11, 2023, to discuss various topics, including an upcoming trip to Courchevel, Park City's sister city. Council member Jenna presented details about the trip, scheduled for February 3 to February 11, which will include Mayor Woll, her husband, and other local leaders. The purpose of the visit is to attend the world championships and learn about managing large events.

Jenna noted that while she would cover the expenses for her companion, the county would be responsible for her airfare, estimated at $1,500 for a round trip. The council expressed support for this arrangement, with expectations for a comprehensive report upon her return.

Additionally, Jenna reminded council members traveling abroad to inform her in advance if they need access to email or participation in meetings during their travels. This proactive approach aims to ensure that all members remain connected and informed.

The discussion also included a request for the council to contribute gifts for the mayor of Courchevel and other officials. Suggestions for gifts included local items and promotional materials, although concerns were raised about using county funds for such purposes. The council agreed to discuss this further offline.

The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn, marking the end of the session. Overall, the council's discussions highlighted the importance of international relations and the need for effective communication among members during travel.
