- Mobilize community resources in support of affordable housing through the requirement that participating jurisdictions match twenty-five percent (25%) of program funds.
The Salt Lake County Consortium HOME Investment Partnership is comprised of:
- Urban County: The urban county consists of the cities of Midvale, Holladay, South Salt Lake City, Murray, Draper, Alta, Bluffdale, Riverton, and Millcreek, as well as unincorporated Salt Lake County including the Townships of Emigration, Copperton, Magna, Kearns, and White City.
