All of the mountains of paperwork required to finalize a deal to host the 2030 or 2034 Winter Games are nearly completed, Utah's bid team says, even though it may be months before IOC leaders pick their preferred hosts.
"There's nothing to read into this," Fraser Bullock, the president and CEO of the Salt Lake City-Utah Committee for the Games, told reporters after the "Preferred Host" documents, spreadsheets and contracts were approved at a closed-door meeting Wednesday.
Salt Lake City, host of the 2002 Winter Games, is bidding to host again in 2030 or 2034. The preference continues to be the later date, to avoid any financial fallout from back-to-back Olympics in the United States."They're working hard with potential European candidates to bring them to the table," he said. "None of this has anything to do with targeted dialogue at this point in time. It's just helping us get ready for the day when we may enter targeted dialogue.
At this point, the bid team said the IOC questionnaire is 90% complete and additional graphics, sustainability studies and financial information that must be submitted are 75% done.
