RESOLUTION
Result . .
WHEREAS, in the recent past storm, drainage has caused Salt Lake
City residents extensive damage on 7th South Street and 9th East and,
also, on 6th South and 8th South Streets; and
WHEREAS, flood control and storm sewer construction is the
statutory responsibility of the County; and
WHEREAS, a special tax levy has been assessed against Salt Lake
City residents to finance storm sewer construction and millions of
dollars has thus been paid into county coffers; and
WHEREAS, only one major project has been commenced within Salt
Lake City; and
WHEREAS, Salt Lake County has promised for at least four years
to complete the storm sewer system known as the 7th South Storm
Sewer and, further, has promised to complete the first phase of the
said storm sewer system in 1970; and
WHEREAS, the County officials have repeatedly stalled, delayed
and refused to act in providing an adequate storm sewer system for
this area in Salt Lake City and has spent the flood control resources
wholly outside of Salt Lake City; and
WHEREAS, the need is so imperative on the 7th South Storm Sewer
System as to place the City in fear of civil litigation against it
and Salt Lake County; and
WHEREAS, the City has even caused to be drafted plans for the
said sewer system and is informed that the University of Utah will
assist the project financially because of their contributory water
drainage.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH, that the Board be, and it hereby does, request
the Salt Lake County Commission to authorize the immediate installa-
tion and construction of the 7th South Storm Sewer, extending from
the Jordan River to 9th East Street on 7th South Street, of sufficient
capacity to meet present and future needs.
