Amendments
Council Members, I am a constituent here in Salt Lake City and a member of the
community. I live between Liberty Park and the Fleet Block. I strongly oppose the
rezoning of this block. As you know, the Fleet Block is home to a collection of
murals which honor those killed by police violence. The murals have served as a
gathering space for the community since the first one was painted. In this space,
people pray, protest, mourn, collect donations, and meet with each other. The
community has planted flowers in this space and beautified the entire block.
Because of all of this, I believe this block is more beneficial and important to the
community as-is, than it would be as a "redeveloped" block of offices or
apartments. This space does not need redeveloping as it is safe, pleasant, and
community-oriented as-is. Thank you for your time. I hope you will put the needs
of the current community over the money of developers. Laurel Clayson

4/14/2021 10:25 Anonymous Constituent anonymous@slcgov.com The caller wanted to leave a comment with the Council regarding the homeless
encampment in front of the murals at the Fleet Block. He was upset to wake up
and to find over fifty police officers preforming a camp abatement on such a cold
and wet morning. Furthermore, he believes that the money used to clean up the
camps could have gone to something better. He walked out onto the sidewalk near
the area and said he was confronted by three police officers who looked down
upon him for being a concerned citizen. He says he understand this is a lose lose
situation for all involved but is concerned about the City's priorities.
4/7/2021 13:46 Larry Framme lframm01@yahoo.com Please consider the potential of adding a park in the redevelopment of the Fleet
Block. Any rezone that jeopardizes this option of being on the table in the future, I
am not in support of. I live on 800 W. 900 S. Thanks for taking my comment into
consideration. Sincerely, Larry Framme3/2/2021 8:49 Tim Dwyer tim@fisherbeer.com Greetings Salt Lake City Council Members, Following the recent discussions on the
Fleet Block Development, We, the Granary District Alliance, would like to submit
the attached letter for your consideration. We would greatly appreciate the
opportunity to engage with the council regarding moving forward with a
community facing development at Fleet Block. Please consider the important
points in our letter and let us know how we can participate in the ongoing dialog
about what is best for our neighborhood and the tremendous opportunities for
our community that exist with the development of the Fleet Block. On behalf of
the board of GDA, Thank you all for your time and consideration of the attached
letter. We would gladly continue this discussion at a council meeting or work
session. Feel free to reach out and let us know what the next steps are and how we
at the Granary District Alliance can participate in the process. We look forward to
working with you on an exciting project at the very core of our district. Best
regards, Tim Dwyer GDA Board Member *See Corresponding Attachments*
2/10/2021 11:46 Calvin Dittmore calvin.dittmore@gmail.com fleet block rezone As someone who lives in the glendale area I drive past the fleet block everyday. I
would like to keep the public land zoning of the block and utilize it to honor the
citizens killed by police officers. Building more unaffordable housing would
disgrace the good work being done currently with the murals. I propose another
free water station, a warming station for our unsheltered community (see
examples from cities like Chicago) and potential public space opportunies for
landscape art or things like a pickleball court. Housing prices will continue to rise as
our population grows here in Utah. to create nature and public oriented spaces is
the right move for our city as gentrification will naturally take effect on the
westside. In conclusion: Adjust the block in a way to keep honoring people killed
by police. Create a space for public recreation and outreach. Thank you

4/23/2021 16:40 Aleyzia Grant galeyzia@gmail.com Good afternoon , I'm Aleyzia Grant and I've looking into fleet murals downtown I
read on line that you guy's were thinking about tearing it down but I've been
looking into that building for quite some time and want to bring it your guys
attention and who ever else I may have to talk to about turning that into a non
profit organization a boys and girls club that I would run something to give back to
the community with different resources to help different people in need I truly
think it would be a beautiful idea and would appreciate it if you guys took that into
consideration thank you in advance!
4/22/2021 15:02 Matthew MURPHY matt.murphy1377@gmail.com Central Ninth - Future Green Space Good Afternoon, As we continue to see future developments in the Central Ninth
Neighborhood, can we please consider additional greenspace to our
neighborhood. Reasons for greenspace: 1. We are seeing 1000s of new units,
specifically micro units - so residents will naturally be looking to get outside. I can't
imagine spending your whole day in a 300sq ft flat. 2. Many units are dog-friendly -
we are seeing excess dog waste all throughout the area 3. Climate change - hotter
summers... shade would be nice to have 4. Covid and future pandemics - people
want and need outdoor space 5. Work from home - many people need an escape
outdoors close to home - protect our mental health 6. Make people proud of our
neighborhood Potential opportunities: 1. Fleet Block - hybrid of new commercial
and greenspace or just a park! 1. Avenues has great parks, Sugarhouse has plenty
of parks, why not us? Liberty Park is great, but there is always room for more. 2.
Protecting Jefferson Park 1. So many neighbors and residents are using and loving
this very small area. Primarily a dog park, but we need spaced for kids, recreation,
etc 3. Remove West Temple exit to 80 - pipedream, but would be an amazing way
to link BallPark to C9. 4. 900 South improvements - great start! Given the zoning in
our area, we are becoming a dumping ground for micro units, short term hotels
and other projects that other neighborhoods would never accept. I think providing
greenspace would be a great compromise. Thank you -Matt Murphy

the camp abatements in front of the Fleet Block murals. He was disappointed to
see police and health officials clearing the camp. He understands that things are
being done but believes that it is not enough and the barriers are to high right now
for the homeless to get help. He states that he tries to do his part by bringing
individuals food when he can. He is also upset with the County Health Department
and believes they are lying about the way camp abatements are being conducted.
He has lived in Salt Lake for most of his life, but is finding it more and more difficult
to call it home. He would like more money put into this issue instead of giving it to
developers and the police. He is asking someone on the Council to speak up about
the issue.

2/15/2022 9:52 Michael Mejia mfmejia@gmail.com FW: (EXTERNAL) In support of Arts Council’s
staffing request
Dear Councilmember Valdemoros, My name is Michael Mejia and I serve on the
Salt Lake Art + Design Board for District 4. I am writing you today to ask for your
support of the Arts Council’s request for additional staff positions in Budget
Amendment 6. I understand that many Departments within Salt Lake City are
struggling with needs for staffing support, and you have many staffing requests in
this budget amendment for consideration. It is a challenging position to be in and I
appreciate your consideration and service to our community. * Many of the Arts
Council’s programs have grown over the last few years including the creation of
the Living Legacy Video Series and Finch Lane Flash Projects, maintenance
responsibilities for the newly passed percent for art ordinance, new City Arts
Grants categories and an ever increasing volume of requests and grants,
participation in multiple City stakeholder and advisory groups and initiatives such
as Fleet Block and Gentrification Mitigation, and increased efforts with equity,
inclusion, and community outreach. More simply put, the Arts Council staff have
been asked to do more with flat staffing since 2012. * In 2019 the Mayor’s Advisor
on Arts & Culture full-time position was eliminated with all of the project and
policy responsibilities of this position being added to the responsibilities of the Arts
Council’s Executive Director as well as management of the Cultural Core project. *
The Arts Council leverages City investment by raising 30-35% of all operating and
programming expenses from sources outside of the City budget. * Additional staff
would also serve the purpose of stabilizing qualifying expenditures of the
organization to leverage critical grant funds from the prestigious Salt Lake County
Zoo, Arts, and Parks grant program. * The Arts Council works diligently to continue
to find additional funding opportunities through grant writing and development.
One recent success is that the Arts Council is just one of 66 awardees nationally
and the only awardee in the state of Utah to receive ARPA funding to sub-grant to
our community from the National Endowment for the Arts. The $500,000 in
funding will go directly to our local artists and arts organizations aiding in a more
swift and equitable economic recovery than what might have otherwise been
possible. This increases the City’s impact. As outlined in the Mayor’s plan from
2020 to 2021, we have been strategically working on the “stabilization of the 1/27/2022 16:54 Marcus Cazier mcazier@gmail.com Fleet Block represents a once-in-a-generation chance to do something amazing for
Salt Lake City: Creating a new park. The $2M earmarked for additional
improvements to Pioneer Park could be redirected to build a park for the residents
of the booming Granary and Central Ninth neighborhoods. The park could include
a space to memorialize the murals, and continue to act as gathering for social
causes. It could have several walls dedicated to outdoor art, with different artists
being invited to paint them over and over. We need housing and business spaces.
But we also need green space to keep our city beautiful. Fleet Block is a blank
canvas. Let's create something beautiful on it. Thanks, Marcus Cazier

11/23/2022 10:09 Leverett Woodruff lkwoodruff@gmail.com Public Comment Regarding the
Proposed Rezone of Fleet Block
Good evening, I would like to submit a comment regarding the proposed rezone of Fleet Block. I want to thank
Council Member Fowler for noting during the Work Session today that in order to retain community trust, the
Council must uphold promises that have been made to the families of those who are memorialized in the
murals. I urge the Council to center the expressed concerns and wishes of those families in any plans to
redevelop Fleet Block. I especially urge you to incorporate preservation of the murals into any proposals for
what to do with the block. I am disheartened to read that "the walls where the murals were painted are hard to
save because of the material" in the official information at https://fleet-block-rezone-slcgov.hub.arcgis.com/. I
would think that with the technological advances in building and engineering today, a way to preserve the
murals could be found. Please include preservation methods for the murals in any RFP you may issue about
redeveloping the block. I also support the suggestion made during the Work Session today that the RFP include
requirements that potential partners have strong social justice/community partnership/diversity, equity and
inclusion credentials, above and beyond what would be required in a normal RFP. Anyone who works on
redeveloping this block must be committed to respecting and making manifest the community's wishes about
what to do with the space. Fleet Block is sacred to many community members, and its powerful purpose as a
place to mourn, come together, share emotions, and heal must be maintained in any future plans for the block.
Thank you. -- Regards, Levy Woodruff
12/14/2022 15:42 Jeffrey Mccarthy wwilliams19@gmail.com Fleet Block Rezone - A plea for
greenspace
Hello SLC Councilmembers, I live one block from the fleet block and fully support the rezone of the property--if
it can guarantee the green space currently in the plan. Our neighborhood is in dire need of green space. The
best block to walk by my house is around Mark Miller Toyota because the sidewalks are cleared, they have
green parkstrips for dogs, and their lighting means I feel safe walking at night. It's pretty sad when the best
walking is around a car dealership. It would be wonderful to have the park currently slated for the NE corner of
the Fleet Block, across from Fisher Brewing. Thank you for thinking of our neighbor's walkability, safety, and
community as you make these zoning decisions. Sincerely, Whitney McCarthy

graffiti is that they are torn down and placed in the dump where they belong. How would you feel driving by this
shameful display, if you were the victim of one of these criminals and now they were being celebrated and
honored with attention. What a slap in the face! This uninvited graffiti is also a slap in the face to our hard
working, dedicated Law Enforcement Officers who see that this city places more value on criminals than the
trauma they endure while protecting our city. It needs to go. Now. > Regards, > Ira Hinckley > Resident

7/11/2022 16:18 Alan Hardman a_e_hardman@hotmail.com Homeless place of safety Mayor and Council Members, The old Fleet building on 300 West between 800 and
900 South seems like a reasonable place to encourage homeless to camp. The
water utilities and restrooms could be enhanced with minimal cost and the lot
could be divided into simple 'camp sites' with spray paint. Trash receptacles can be
spread throughout and major cleaning could be done weekly (it would be cheaper
than what the Health Dept has to do now). Even if the City had to provide some
oversite and policing it would be better than the emergency reports that currently
come from neighborhoods' concerns. And the homeless would have a relatively
safe place with water and restrooms. Has anyone looked into trying this? thanks,
Ellie Hardman

2/25/2022 9:39 Sage Sagers sagesagers@gmail.com Don't rezone Fleet Block. The murals there are important to the community as it
creates a space to remember and honor lives lost by police brutality. If for some
reason it must be rezoned, I suggest that the murals be saved and displayed after
rezoning or relocated entirely.

Square
Honorable Councilor, I feel these murals are essential treasures of Salt Lake City history. I understand the need
to develop, and appreciate the efforts taken to include family members and community in moving forward. I am
remembering the impact of visiting the Gantt museum in Charlotte, NC during the democratic national
convention of 2012. It housed a huge exhibit of Tavis Smiley's America I Am. https://www.ganttcenter.org/
Today, coincidentally, I was perusing Facebook's Events and saw this coming up with Dr. France Davis. Choosing

collection <https://campusguides.lib.utah.edu/c.php?g=1219670&p=8921920> at the U's Marriott Library.
Although this collection documents Utah's Black History, it would be interesting to see whether they would be
inclined to partner with the city to digitize and document the murals at Fleet Square. It started, as I understand,
with a black man's - George Floyd - murder, and grew from there to memorialize people in our city who died by
police shootings. I love our police department and think our chief is doing a great job with community outreach
and training of officers. It must be hard for the city to reckon with the times when people are killed by police,
under any circumstance. It's a delicate thing, yet I don't believe we can forget because we can always do better.
I love that the council and mayor remember that these folks who died were loved ones and they were good,
had stories, and potential that was cut short. Thanks for listening. Please let me know if you are able to make
progress on this. Let me know if I can help in any way. Paz y luz, Deborah Esquibel Hunt
3/30/2023 12:21 Leverett Woodruff lkwoodruff@gmail.com Preserve the murals and create a
community resource space at Fleet
Block
Good evening, I’m writing to ask that any future rezoning or redevelopment of Fleet Block preserve the murals
that memorialize lives lost to police brutality. The murals are a sacred space of healing for those whose loved
ones are remembered there. The city should respect this profoundly important use of the space by so many in
our community. I would also like to suggest that one potential use for part of Fleet Block is a community center
that has green space and a community produce garden outside and recreation space, like a basketball or pickle
ball court, inside, as well as restrooms with showers and laundry facilities that could be used by anyone in the
area who needed it, including our unsheltered neighbors. The center could also include a library, clothes closet,
and space for local businesses to have pop up shops. Another helpful feature would be private rooms and
regularly scheduled time that community members could meet with social workers, mental health counselors,
harm reduction teams, and legal aid attorneys. Please consider dedicating part of Fleet Block to meet the needs
of Salt Lakers for a place to connect with their community and get basic needs met. Thank you, Levy Woodruff

my comments are taken into consideration as well. These murals not only help to keep these victims of police
brutality alive through memory, they remind us that there are changes that desperately need to be made so we
have an equitable justice system. I will be deeply disappointed if the decision is made to essentially erase the
history of police brutality instead of learning and growing from it. Thank you for your consideration, Kaitlin

7/18/2023 15:14 Leverett Woodruff lkwoodruff@gmail.com Comment on Fleet Block proposed
rezone
Good afternoon, I have reviewed the Mayor’s Office proposal regarding the Fleet Block zoning and disposition
strategy, and would like to offer the following comment. I have previously written to comment that the
Administration and Council should prioritize the wishes of the families whose loved ones are portrayed in the
Fleet Block murals when it comes to any redevelopment of this property. I want to reiterate how important it is
that these families guide the redevelopment process. As noted in the most recent communication from the
Mayor’s Office, the city vacated Fleet Block in 2010 and left it with various levels of environmental
contamination. It was the families and loved ones of those portrayed in the murals who restored the site to
beneficial use for the community by painting the murals, planting garden boxes before each mural, and
installing benches and resource boxes for food, water, and other necessities for unsheltered Salt Lake citizens. It
is these families and their community who continually maintain the site by mowing, weeding, and picking up
trash. They do this because the site is a sacred space of healing for them and of outreach to our neighbors
experiencing homelessness. I urge you to listen to the input of these families about the future of Fleet Block.
Any redevelopment must prioritize saving the murals. They should be the main feature of the public space
proposed for the site. I also urge that any housing proposed for the site be required to be deeply affordable, or
affordable to Utahns whose incomes do not exceed 30% of Area Median Income. Far too often, what is called
“affordable housing” is not affordable to most of those who need it. The solution to homelessness is housing,
and if we want this site to benefit the community, there are few more beneficial or urgent projects than housing
our neighbors who need it most. The Administration’s update states that the City will “involve
underrepresented communities in the development process” for Fleet Block. The City has a responsibility to
include the Murals families on any committees or other bodies that make decisions going forward. Please give
these families the voice they are owed, because they uplifted this space to honor their loved ones whose lives
were lost to state-sanctioned violence. Thank you. Levy Woodruff

regarding “Fleet Block”. Fleet Block is better known as The Salt Lake City Police Brutality Murals and it is of
historical value in our neighborhood. The discussions surrounding police violence are vital to our community
and our neighborhood’s growth. Demolishing these murals will not erase police violence or the conversations
needed around police reform, police violence and police murder. It is concerning that there was not a mention
of a community center, resource center or a permanent gathering center as this space is currently operating
that way. We feel it to be a priority when discussing the future and development of this area. Salt Lake City
currently has a high demand for resources that stretch from; shelter, food, water, harm reduction, mental and
physical health. These types of resources should be required in this block now that this intersection is equally
accessible from the East and West sides of the valley. We encourage you to support your community and their
current successful efforts at keeping this space safe for mourning and grieving, outreach, collecting and sharing
ideas, but most importantly getting to know our neighbors. Below are some reference ideas for your next
