In this capacity, she has certified various city ordinances for the public record throughout 2026. As the City Recorder of Sandy City, Utah, Wendy Downs performs essential administrative duties for the municipality, including the certification of official city ordinances. According to a public notice dated August 5, 2026, Downs certified that the short summary of Ordinance 26-53 was published on the Utah Public Notice Website, the Sandy City Website, and at City Hall. This specific ordinance, which was adopted by the Sandy City Council on July 21, 2026, involved amending Section 7-1-24 of the Sandy City Municipal Code to address the acquisition of real property, the inventory of city owned real property, and the disposition of surplus real and personal property.
