WHEREAS, Salt Lake County residents will vote on August 13, 1974
on a proposed bond issue in the amount of 49.5 million dollars for needed
park and recreation facilities, and for the County's share of the Hall of
Performing Arts; and
WHEREAS, the State of Utah has already appropriated 6.5 million
dollars as its share of the Hall of Performing Arts; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners of Salt Lake City recognizes
the great need for open space and recreational programs, as well as the
need for a cultural hall in this fast-growing metropolitan area; and
WHEREAS, said Board further recognizes that land prices are
increasing at a very rapid rate and that if the proposed sites are not
purchased as soon as possible, the cost of such purchase will be increased
substantially, and land which is now available may not be available in the
future; and

are lagging far behind the present need.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF
SALT LAKE CITY that it hereby expresses its wholehearted support for the
proposed bond issue. Further, the Board urges the citizens of Salt Lake
County to vote in favor of the proposed bond issue, thereby expressing their
