A Republican from Sandy is hoping to leave his elected seat on the Salt Lake County Council to take over the office responsible for tracking and recording real-estate transactions and land ownership in the county.
Max Burdick, who was re-elected to his part-time position in 2016, will spend the next two weeks working to persuade nearly 800 members of the Salt Lake County Republican Party’s central committee to choose him over six others who have expressed interest in the full-time post overseeing the recorder’s office.
