Sugar House News and Information

[caption id="attachment_1196" align="alignleft" width="107"]Amy Barry Amy Barry[/caption] This newsletter begins my 2nd year serving as chair for the Sugar House Community Council. I am thankful for the opportunity given to me by the trustees to stick around for another year. I look forward to working with the new Executive Committee. The SHCC has been noticed of 2 important land use issues. I want to take a moment to remind my neighbors of the process.  The SHCC is not a decision making body for Salt Lake City. We are a community voice. The land use developments we will be presenting is our effort to collect your voices. We make recommendations to the developers, but they are under no obligation to modify their plans. ALL COMMENTS are included in the report we submit to the planning office and the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission will make the final decision to grant the petitioners request. While we do our best to represent the voices we heard it is very important that people show up to the Planning Commission meeting. We won't know the exact date until December, but we'll keep everyone informed through the newsletter list, website and facebook.

21st and 21st Small Area Master Plan - On August 12, the Planning Staff will provide the Planning Commission an update on the 21st and 21st Small Area Master Plan. The project includes an area stretching along 2100 South from approximately 2000 East to 2300 East. The small area master plan will address the characteristics of the future development of this neighborhood. The goal of this plan is to create an improved and beautified business district that is a unique destination but still remains compatible in scale with nearby neighborhoods. The plan will establish guidelines for private development, public spaces such as sidewalks, park strips and streets. The plan is currently finishing up the data gathering stage and is moving towards scenario development. (Staff contact John Anderson (801) 535-7214 or [email protected] )

[caption id="attachment_1196" align="alignleft" width="107"]Amy Barry Amy Barry[/caption] The SHCC and neighboring community councils will again partner together to host a Mayoral and City Council District 6 debate. We will be alerting people mostly by facebook so please take a moment and like our page to stay on top of issues. Summer is wrapping up, but we still have so much going on in our area. I have been out riding my bike along Parley's Trail and have thoroughly enjoyed the new connectivity of neighborhoods. Parley's Trail is an effort to connect the Bonneville Shoreline Trail to the Jordan River Parkway. The Salt Lake City portion is nearly complete, but work still continues on the section from 1700 E to Tanner Park. Salt Lake City Engineering should be sending out the majority of this section to bid with work commencing in the fall. This trail is a great amenity for residents to more easily enjoy walking or bike riding without being alongside traffic.
