Salt Lake City hosts Renter Resource Fairs throughout the year, typically once each season. The fair is an opportunity for renters to learn about their rights, meet other Salt Lake City renters, and connect with service providers. Service providers table at the event to share resources or provide on site services. Services range from legal assistance for eviction prevention to tenant landlord mediation to resolve disputes. The fairs will include a brief presentation on one or more topics related to renting or tenant rights. Check back on this webpage for details regarding any future upcoming Renter Resource Fairs.
The next Renter Resource Fair will be on August 14 from 5:30-7:30 pm at 960 S Main Street.
Participating Organizations:
If your organization is interested in tabling at a future Renter Resource Fair contact Erik Fronberg, Housing and Consumer Protection Analyst, at erik.fronberg@slc.gov or 801-535-7291.
