Recently the State of Utah made several changes to the election laws that will affect the way Fruit Heights City holds Caucus Meetings (Utah Code 20A-9-203 & 404). The new changes now require that those who are interested in seeking election or re-election must file a Declaration of Candidacy between June 1st and June 7th, 2017 with the Fruit Heights City Recorder. No individual may be nominated by the caucus unless a Declaration of Candidacy has been properly filed for the individual. A $25 Filling Fee is also required to file.

Many residents may not be aware of this, but Fruit Heights City is the only city in Davis County that continues to hold an Electoral Caucus Meeting instead of a Primary Election. This year Fruit Heights City has scheduled to hold its Caucus Meetings on August 15, 2017 at 7:00 pm at the Fruit Heights City Hall; this will be the same night as the Primary Elections.
In 1939, when Fruit Heights City became a town, City leaders organized the caucuses with two non-partisan parties; the Pinecone and the Sagebrush parties. During election years, these two parties gather together to nominate candidates that will run in the upcoming election, these candidates are nominated by the residents and then voted on by the members of the Pinecone and Sagebrush parties. This year there will be two (2) City Council seats and the Mayors seat. Each party will need to nominate two (2) City Council members and one (1) Mayoral Candidate that will be on the ballot for the 2017 General Election.
If you are interested in filling, the following information will need to accompany the Candidates Deceleration of Candidacy:

A Copy of Section 20A-7-801 Statewide Electronic Voter Information Website
A Copy of the Pledge of Fair Campaign Practices
A copy of the Finance Disclosure Requirements
