When Utah Sen. Jake Anderegg resigned Thursday, he said it was because he could no longer balance his career and service in the Utah Senate. It came days after Robert Gehrke received a document showing he had contracted for consulting work with Utah County.
State Sen. Jake Anderegg, who has a new consulting position, resigned from the Legislature on Thursday, citing a ‘significant change’ to his employment situation.letter of resignation from the Utah Legislature, Sen. Jake Anderegg
Anderegg’s resignation came less than a week after I received a response to an open records request for a contract the senator had signed with Utah County to plan and secure state and federal funding for road projects. Until last year, Anderegg — like many legislators have in the past — worked for Zions Bank as vice president of community development. In December, state records show, he incorporated a consulting business, Think Utah Consulting, LLC.
One of the “deliverables” he was required to provide was, “Demonstrable success securing outside funding for recommended transit and other public infrastructure projects.”Anderegg and County Commission Chairman Tom Sakievich signed the contract on Jan. 17, 2023 — the opening day of the legislative session.
