RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, Western Airlines, for many years, has maintained in
Salt Lake City a Pilot Base; and,
WHEREAS, the maintenance of said Pilot Base in Salt Lake City
has resulted in bringing to, and keeping within, Salt Lake City and
the State of Utah, a desirable facility and a substantial payroll;
and,
WHEREAS, there presently is an organized and energetic state
program to aid in the industrial development of the state by encour-
aging and soliciting industries to locate their plants and facilities
in the State of Utah; and,
WHEREAS, Western Air Lines has expressed its intention to remove
its Pilot Base from Salt Lake City and locate the same outside the
State of Utah and such action would militate against the industrial
development program above mentioned and would result in a loss to
Salt Lake City and the State of Utah of a substantial facility and
its attendant payroll:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH that it does hereby vigorously oppose the removal
of said Pilot Base from Salt Lake City, and the State of Utah, and
earnestly requests Western Air Lines not to move said Pilot Base from
Salt Lake City.
Passed by the Board of Commissioners of Salt Lake City, Utah,
16th �.
this day of April, 1968.
