A Summit County ballot drop box is located at the entrance to the library and county services building in Kamas on Main Street.

Each municipality has the mayor and at least two council seats on the November 2025 ballot.

Municipal elections have primaries if the number of candidates who file is equal to more than double the number of seats available.

There will be a primary election in the Coalville mayoral race to cut the field from four to two. Henefer will have a primary to cut the mayoral field from three to two.

Coalville and Francis’ respective council races will have primaries to cut the fields from six to four.

Eight candidates filed for two open council seats in Park City, which will be whittled to four in the primary.

Primary municipal election: Aug. 12, 2025
