Ms. Alexandra Eframo spoke under “Citizen Public Input” stating she rode on Utah Transit Authority’s (UTA) Trax line and the announcement told passengers what exit they are at is incorrect. For example, when stopping at the 1600 south exit, the announcement said

ftr://?location="Council"?date="14-Feb-2017"?path=""?position="16:04:11"?Data="9265cd9e"


16th South, which is incorrect. The announcement should say 1600 South. That is confusing for visitors. She encouraged the Council to contact UTA and tell it to change the announcement.

Mr. Carl Fisher, Executive Director, Save Our Canyons, spoke under “Citizen Public Input” stating the Council does not appear to grasp the structure of the Foothills Canyons Overlay Zone (FCOZ) and Mountain Resort Zone (MRZ) ordinances and the gravity of the issues. When talking about the environment, watershed, and the health of the forest, the Council should be using scientific data when making decisions. This causes great concern for Save Our Canyons and its members. Several individuals and he have reached out to the Council numerous times to schedule a meeting to discuss concerns and bring the Council up to date on issues, but received no response. He would like to set up a time when the Council can discuss these important issues with him.

Mr. Norm Henderson spoke under “Citizen Public Input” stating he owns a house in Big Cottonwood Canyon and will be directly affected by the proposed Foothills Canyon Overlay Zone (FCOZ) and the Mountain Resort Zone (MRZ) ordinances. He urged the Council to wait until the recommendations the Commission for the Stewardship of Public Lands and the Utah Quality Growth Commission are submitted before adopting these ordinances. Those recommendations for changes in state law and policy are needed to strike a proper balance between growth and protection of the Wasatch Mountains.

Mr. Bob Bonar, General Manager, Snowbird Resort, spoke under “Citizen Public Input” regarding the process involved with the Foothills Canyon Overlay Zone (FCOZ) and the Mountain Resort Zone (MRZ) ordinances. He stated the revisions have gone through an extensive process with many opportunities for public comment. This is the right direction to take in order to find balance for the canyons. It supports multiple uses and environmental conservation in the canyons.
