These direct predecessors owned and operated electric utilities in Salt Lake City and Ogden, and a street railway system in and adjacent to Salt Lake City, The Utah Power Company (a Utah Corporation) is also considered a direct predeces­ sor inasmuch as its hydro-electric plant and other properties at the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon were conveyed by quit claim deed to the Traction Company July 22, 1935. On January 2, 1915, the electrical properties of the Utah Light and Traction Company, (including plants, substations, transmission and dis­ tribution lines, and other properties not essential to railway operation) were leased to the Utah Power & Light Company for a period of 99 years. Outstanding bonds under the Utah Light and Traction Company 1st and refunding mortgage are guaranteed as to principal and interest by Utah Poxver & Light Company. Electric power for street railway operations of Utah Light and Traction Company is supplied by Utah Power & Light Company. Below are listed the three direct and 17 indirect predecessors of the Utah Light and Traction Company: Ogden City Electric Light Company Citizens' Electric Light Company (Ogden) Ogden Gas, Light & Fuel Company Salt Lake City Gas Company Salt Lake Power, Light & Heating Company Salt Lake & Ogden Gas & Electric Light Company Salt Lake Citizens Electric. Light Company Big Cottonwood Power Company Pioneer Electric Power Company Little Cottonwood Water, Power & Electric Company, Limited Union Light & Power Company Utah Light & Power Company Salt Lake City Railroad Company Salt Lake Rapid Transit Company Popperton Place & Fort Douglas Rapid Transit East Bench Street Railway Company Consolidated Railway & Power Company Utah Light & Railway Company Salt Lake Light & Traction Company Utah Power Company (Utah) OGDEN CITY ELECTRIC LIG^T CQiffiAHY •• •• ...II.. _»i. i M I.I nr ii.li • I.I..1I... .i- ...I— ; .I..I. This Company was incorporated May 10, 1881. Service was first supplied in Ogden, Utah from a small steam plant located in the heart of the city. This plant proved unsatisfactory and a hydro plant was built in Ogden Canyon. The early history of the Company shows a series of dis­ asters, financial losses, and general dissatisfaction with service. The poor service was due mainly to the inability of the isolated plant to re­ main in operation because of ice in the winter and low water in the summer. In spite of these difficulties, business increased to such an extent that by 1890 a new steam plant was needed and constructed. Before the plant could be placed in operation a competing company, Citizens' Electric Company, was organized. A court battle ensued to determine which company was to receive the street lighting contract from the city. The question was settled only after the two companies had merged and their property transferred to the Ogden Gas, Light & Fuel Company. The Ogden City Electric Light Company transfer was made December 29, 1891. 4 QCTIZBtS* ELKSTfllO LIGHT COMPANY (OGDEN) The Citizens' Electric Light Company was incorporated June 17, 1890, to serve Ogden, Utah in competition with the Ogden City Electric Light Company. Although the life of this Company was very short, it built a power plant and furnished lights in Ogden. Litigation between the above two companies over a street lighting contract lead to their merger and the transfer of their property to the Ogden Gas, Light & Fuel Company. The property of the Citizens' Electric Light Company was transferred December 28, 1891. OGDEN GAS, LIGHT & FUEL COMPANY Ogden Gas, Light & Fuel Company was incorporated May 14, 1889. The population of Ogden at that time was only 15,000 and the fact that there were three competing companies—one gas and two electric—meant a period of disastrous competition for all. On March 20, 1891, an agree­ ment was reached whereby Ogden City Electric Light Company and Citizens' Electric Light Company turned the management of their companies over to the Gas Company and the various properties were consolidated. The pro­ perty was transferred to the Ogden Gas, Light & Fuel Company December 29, 1891. This Company continued operating until January 2, 1893, at which time its holdings along with the property of two Salt Lake companies were transferred to the Salt Lake & Ogden Gas & Electric Light Company* SALT LAKE CITY GAS COMPANY The Salt Lake City Gas Company was organized May 27, 1872. A year later a gas plant was constructed and mains were laid on the prin­ cipal streets of the city. The Company operated smoothly and profitably until the introduction of electricity in 1880. Upon the refusal of the local gas company to purchase machinery to furnish electric lighting, the manufacturer's agent organized the Salt Lake Power, Light & Heating Company to compete with the Gas Company. Operations continued until January 2, 1893 at which time these companies were consolidated to form the Salt Lake & Ogden Gas & Electric Light Company, §£iLMg!LPOWER, LIGHT & HEATING COMPANY The agent for a machinery company promoted organization of the Salt Lake Power, Light & Heating Company November 8, 1880 to compete with the local gas company. A steam plant was built and three circuits were put into operation by April, 1881. As the demand for electric lighting in­ creased it became necessary to construct another steam plant. Near the end of 1892, a syndicate of London and New York capitalists, represented by J. Elliott Condict of San Francisco, began buying gas and electric properties in Salt Lake and Ogden. On February 14, 1893, the properties of the Salt Lake City Gas Company, the Salt Lake Power, Light & Heating Company and the Ogden Gas, Light & Fuel Company were consolidated to form the Salt Lake & Ogden Gas & Electric Light Company. SALT LAKE & OGDEN GAS & ELECTRIC LIGHT COMPA-fY On February 14, 1893, John Elliott Condict of San Francisco, representing London and New York capitalists, consolidated the properties of the Ogden Gas, Light & Fuel Company, the Salt Lake City Gas Company and the Salt Lake Power, Light & Heating Company and organized the Salt Lai® & Ogden Gas & Electric Light Company. Despite poor service furnish­ ed, the Salt Lake a Ogden Gas & Electric Light Company could not supply the demand. 'The Company contracted with the Big Cottonwood Power' Company for power to relieve the overloaded condition. During the life of the Company little heed was paid to maintenance of property. In 1895 the -6 Salt Lake Citizens Electric Light Company was organized to compete with the Salt Lake & Ogden Company. On November 4, 1897 the Salt Lake & Ogden Gas a Electric Light Company and the Salt Lake Citizens Electric Light Company were acquired by the Union Light & Power Company. SALT LAKE CITIZENS1 EIECTRIC TIGHT COMPANY This Company was incorporated August 3, 1895. A steam plant was constructed at 4th West and 2nd South Streets in Salt Lake City, and a distribution system was built to serve the commercial district. The Company commenced operations in October, 1895 in competition with the Salt Lake &, Ogden Gas a Electric Light Company. Destructive competition was carried on for nearly two years. In 1897 the companies were consoli­ dated along with other properties to form the Union Light & Power Com­ pany.

  • Addresses for All State Governors
    Addresses for all State Governors Powers of Governors: Governors, all of whom are popularly elected, serve as the chief executive officers of the fifty states and five commonwealths and territories. As state managers, governors are responsible for implementing state laws and overseeing the operation of the state executive branch. As state leaders, governors advance and pursue new and revised policies and programs using a variety of tools, among them executive orders, executive budgets, and legislative proposals and vetoes. Governors carry out their management and leadership responsibilities and objectives with the support and assistance of department and agency heads, many of whom they are empowered to appoint. A majority of governors have the authority to appoint state court judges as well, in most cases from a list of names submitted by a nominations committee. Although governors have many roles and responsibilities in common, the scope of gubernatorial power varies from state to state in accordance with state constitutions, legislation, and tradition, Veto Power All 50 state governors have the power to veto whole legislative measures. In a large majority of states a bill will become law unless it is vetoed by the governor within a specified number of days, which vary among states. In a smaller number of states, bills will die (pocket veto) unless they are formally signed by the governor, also within a specified number of days. Other types of vetoes available to the governors of some states include "line-item" (by which a governor can strike a general item from a piece of legislation), "reduction" (by which a governor can delete a budget item), and "amendatory" (by which a governor can revise legislation).
