Salt Lake City Downtown Plan
(Briefing text changes)
On December 13, 1994 the City Council held their first public hearing on the
Salt Lake City Downtown Plan. Generally the comments about the Plan were
supportive. However, there were two groups, namely representatives of the
Downtown Alliance and the Real Estate Division of the LDS Church, that had
specific questions about the Plan. They suggested delaying the adoption of the Plan
so that they could meet with the City Staff and discuss their questions.
The Planning and Council Staff contacted the Downtown Alliance and the
representatives of Zion Security for the LDS Church, to further discuss their
concerns. The discussions were very helpful and the City Staff and representatives
of the two groups were able to come to an agreement on minor changes to the
Downtown Plan. The following are the text changes to the Plan:
