R OLUTION OF APPR CIATION
Result
WHEREAS, the Harvey D. Hansen Family, by and through a family
partnership, Hanco R & I Limited, has donated to the City five (5)
acres of property located in the mouth of Parley's Canyon, which
has a value of approximately $100,000.00, to be used as a City
park; and
WHEREAS, said property can be used as a basis to begin develop-
ment and acquisition of adjacent land for a naturalist park; and
WHEREAS, said land is one of the few remaining parcels in the
valley through which a canyon stream still runs and provides the
natural habitat for a wide variety of birds and small animals; and
WHEREAS, said land is of great historical significance to the
City as both the former toll road and railway line to Park City
transverse this property as does the original route of the former
Lincoln Highway which connected New York City and San Francisco;
and
WHEREAS, this generous gift by the Hansen Family shall provide
much recreation and enjoyment for the residents of Salt Lake City.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners of
Salt Lake City on its own behalf and on behalf of the citizens of
Salt Lake City that it extends its sincere appreciation to the
Harvey D. Hansen Family for its most generous contribution of land
at the mouth of Parley's Canyon for the use and development of a
naturalist park.
IT IS FURTHER RESOLVED by the Board of City Commissioners that
the park be designated as "Hansen Park" and that an appropriate
plaque be placed at the entrance of the park, identifying Harvey D.
Hansen and his family as donors of the park property.
