Salt Lake City Mayor Ralph Becker unveiled a 30-point plan and a new interactive Web site Tuesday aimed at making the inner workings of the city government machine more "open, inclusive, responsive and accountable for its actions."

House and Senate leaders marked the first day of the 111th Congress by preaching bipartisanship Tuesday and promising to start work quickly on President-elect Barack Obama's economic proposals and issues ranging from climate change to health care.

In a new year that's sure to challenge the elected officials who keep Utah's county governments afloat, Monday ceremonies in Utah's three most populous counties marked the start, and in some cases the re-start, of those officials' terms of public service.
