SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — County officials in Utah have agreed to pay $2.6 million to the Navajo Nation following a voting rights case that reconfigured voting districts.

The Salt Lake City reported Tuesday that the San Juan County Commission voted unanimously Tuesday to pay plaintiff fees to Navajo Nation attorneys over the next eight years.

County officials say they are expected to pay a one-time $1.3 million payment in January, followed by annual $200,000 payments until the full amount is paid off.

Officials say the Navajo Nation first brought suit against San Juan County under the Voting Rights Act seven years ago.

Officials say the case that reconfigured the county’s voting districts and led to the election of its first majority-Navajo Commission appears to be finally over.
