Developed with community input and key stakeholder collaboration, the plan paves the way for transformative partnerships with local institutions and businesses. It embraces best practices in public realm design, mobility, and landscape while placing human experience, accessibility, and cultural identity at the forefront. Above all, the Ballpark NEXT plan proposes a beautiful, welcoming space that honors its legacy while embracing future potential. Anchored in six guiding themes and principles of physical, social, and environmental health, it reflects the community’s aspirations and sets the stage for Salt Lake City’s next iconic hub for entertainment and economic vitality. Since 1928, the Ballpark neighborhood has been home to minor league baseball, a cherished local tradition. With the Bees’ departure, the community now has a rare opportunity to shape a new chapter grounded in shared values, inclusive planning, and long-term prosperity. Built on years of engagement and planning, the Ballpark NEXT plan provides flexible guidance for thoughtful development and investment. Instead of a rigid blueprint, it serves as a strategic tool to drive a once-in-a-generation transformation that prioritizes community benefits. The plan outlines a clear vision for public spaces, streets, and mixed-use development, each element contributing to a safe, welcoming, and well-connected neighborhood. It fosters economic vibrancy through high-quality jobs, diverse housing options, entertainment venues, and accessible green spaces, all shaped by a human-centered design approach. 6 7 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan Reader’s Guide Before delving into the document, let’s clarify the intended audience, how it should be used, and the value it provides.

Ballpark Station Area Plan (2022) The design framework aligns with the adopted Station Area Plan including the following actions: • Creating a dense urban environment and entertainment zone around the Ballpark. • Increase connectivity in the station area. • Increase urban design quality. • Improve safety. • Enhance social vibrancy. Ballpark NEXT Design Competition (2023) Immediately following the relocation announcement, Salt Lake City launched the Ballpark NEXT Design Competition, which invited residents, post-secondary students, and professionals to submit their creative ideas for the Ballpark Site’s future. 123 applications were received, including 92 residents, 14 post- secondary students, and 17 development professional applications. After being narrowed down to three finalists in each category, a public vote determined one winner in each. Many of the ideas from the design competition were incorporated into the final design framework including reconnecting Richards Street, the adaptive re-use of the ballpark, a publicly accessible parkspace, and daylighting of the three creeks, to name a few. Community Visioning and Guiding Principles (2023) The extensive community visioning process was built on the themes gathered from the Design Competition, as well as previous neighborhood planning efforts. The CRA worked with residents, businesses, and local organizations to collaborate via in-person events, online tools, and a working group where they discussed pertinent issues, provided feedback, and identified existing positives, challenges, and aspirations. This process culminated in the Community Vision Statement and Guiding Principles, which served as the basis for the preferred design scenario. Ballpark Next Urban Design Framework Planning Process (2024 - 2025) The Ballpark NEXT Urban Design Framework, which was an eight (8) months planning process, acknowledged and built upon previous planning work and community vision statement and guiding principles to deliver a human-centered development roadmap for the city-owned 14.82 acre site. The process included two (2) stakeholder ideation sessions, which included but not limited to representatives from Salt Lake City, Ballpark Community Council Leadership, Ballpark Action Team Leadership, Larry H. Miller Group, and Utah Transit Authority. The discourse and input from these stakeholder ideation sessions informed the selection of the preferred alternative. A break out group from the first Ballpark NEXT stakeholder ideation. The Neighborhood26 27 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Process The Site’s History An iconic landmark for the Ballpark neighborhood, the site has served as a sports, civic and cultural anchor in Salt Lake City for over 100 years. Natural History Historically, three Salt Lake Valley waterways: Red Butte Creek, Emigration Creek, and Parley’s Creek, traversed the neighborhood, terminating at the Jordan River. These creeks remained daylit as recent as 1952, but were ultimately channelized and buried under 1300 South. Baseball Origins The site’s baseball legacy began in 1928 with the opening of Community Park and later Derks An aerial view of Derks Field with daylit creeks along 1300 South as seen in 1952. (Credit: Salt Lake Tribune) Field. This ballpark served as the home of the Salt Lake Bees, Gulls, and Trappers for decades as well as a beloved anchor for celebrations and civic pride, hosting events like concerts and July 4th fireworks shows. Modern Day In 1994, Derks Field was replaced by a modern minor league baseball facility, first named Franklin Covey Field, now known as Smith’s Ballpark, which continued the tradition of baseball as the home of the Salt Lake Bees until 2024.

Ecology Infrastructure Transportation Infrastructure Social Infrastructure Located between Jordan River and Liberty Park, the site offers ecological value beyond human networks. With intentional planting and open space design, Ballpark NEXT becomes a “stepping stone” along a migratory pollinator corridor. The neighborhood is served by TRAX light rail and frequent bus service on State Street. The framework can deliver walkable and bikeable connections to everyday shops and services, reducing reliance on automobiles. The site presents an opportunity to better connect to existing neighborhood social infrastructure such as educational institutions, everyday services, and health care support through green streets.

The Ballpark neighborhood faces significant disparities compared to Salt Lake County, underscoring the urgent need for place-based, health supportive design interventions. Below are a few key metrics: Guided by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Social Determinants of Health framework, the plan prioritizes human- centered design strategies that address root causes of health disparities in the Ballpark neighborhood. According to the CDC, Social Determinants of Health are “conditions in the environments where people are born, live, learn, work, play, worship, and age that affect a wide range of health, functioning, and quality-of-life outcomes and risks.” These are organized into five key domains: Social and Community Context The CDC notes that strong social connections improve health and resilience. But many people, especially those facing discrimination or isolation, lack support. Building relationships at home, work, and in community spaces helps people thrive. Healthcare Access and Quality The CDC highlights that timely, affordable, and quality healthcare is essential. Many people lack insurance or providers nearby, making it harder to get preventive care or manage health conditions. Housing Cost Burden Poverty reflects limited income and access to basic needs, which can negatively impact health and deepen long-term inequality. Housing cost burden shows when housing costs take up too much income, leaving less for essentials that support health. No high school diploma signals limited education access, which is linked to lower income, fewer job opportunities, and poorer health outcomes. Racial/ethnic minority status highlights groups that often face systemic barriers to health, housing, education, and economic opportunity. Poverty Racial/Ethnic Minority Status No High School Diploma 51.4% 24.7% 35.1% 15% 48.3% 30.2% 18.3% 8.2% Salt Lake County Ballpark Census Tract 35.1% 15% Poverty 21% 11.2% Food Insecurity 11.4% 6.6% Transportation Barriers 24% 19.6% Physical Inactivity 5.5% 3.9% 4.7% Unemployment 51.4% 24.7% Housing Cost Burden 18.3% 8.2% No High School Diploma 21.8% No Broadband 16.6% 10.2% Lack of Health Insurance 48.3% 30.2% Racial/Ethnic Minority Status 36% 32.5% Social Isolation 5.1% 10.1% Single Parent Households Economic Stability According to the CDC, steady income and access to basic needs like housing, food, and healthcare are critical for good health. Poverty, low wages, and lack of job opportunities increase risk for chronic illness and poor outcomes. Neighborhood and Built Environment Where people live affects their exposure to violence, pollution, and other risks. The CDC stresses that safer streets, clean air and water, and access to parks and transportation can greatly improve health. Education Access and Quality The CDC links education to long-term health. Students who attend quality schools are more likely to succeed and stay healthy. Barriers like poverty, discrimination, or underfunded schools increase health risks over time. The Neighborhood34 35 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Process Ideation with City and Neighborhood Partners The planning process invited stakeholders to provide input on priority programs they would like to see at the Ballpark site, organized around the five domains of Social Determinants of Health. Three distinct design test fits were developed to illustrate different scenarios for the future of Smith’s Ballpark. Based on community input, Scenario 2: Adaptive Re-Use was chosen as the preferred alternative. Scenario 1: Preserve Scenario 2: Adaptive Re-Use Scenario 3: Removal Scenario 2 reimagines the Ballpark as a cultural and civic landmark, blending art, performance, and community driven activities while preserving the western portion of the stadium. Community stakeholders appreciated the balance of historic preservation with new development, incorporating partial re-use of the stadium while creating a vibrant, mixed- use destination centered on arts, culture, and community gatherings space.

Integrate the ideas into the design of new parks, streets, and buildings. 3 4 The design process integrated physical conditions analysis, public health assessment, and key programming ideas to shape the preferred land use and urban design framework. The Framework CHAPTER 03 The Design Framework42 43 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Mobility Framework Streets are envisioned not just as infrastructure, but as shared public spaces that create a seamless transit experience and foster greater social connectedness. The mobility framework prioritizes breaking down large blocks to make the site walkable and welcoming to the neighborhood. Keep Cars on the Perimeter Vehicle access is concentrated along the site’s perimeter - 1300 South, Main Street, Paxton Avenue, and parts of West Temple—preserving interior streets as pedestrian-priority zones. Break Up the Super Block By opening the edges and inviting the pedestrian to traverse the site through a series of connected alleyways and walkways, the super block is broken down into smaller pieces. This intentional porosity encourages walking and biking through the neighborhood as well as informing the scale and form of new buildings. NORTH Reconnect Richards Street Restitching the fragmented segments of Richards Street creates a key north-south pedestrian link through the site’s mid-block. Integrate Pedestrian and Bicycle Infrastructure The proposed bike infrastructure within the Ballpark site aligns with the Ballpark Station Area Plan, which recommends bike routes along Main Street and Paxton Avenue. Additionally, the West Temple Festival Street will provide a comfortable and accessible north-south bikeway. Interior streets throughout the site are intentionally designed to promote walking and biking, creating a safe and inviting environment for active transportation. The Design Framework44 45 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Street Typologies The framework applies three distinct street typologies: Park Promenade, Shared Streets, and Walkways, to support multi-modal movement and service needs. Together, they create safe, navigable pathways for pedestrians and vehicles throughout the development. STREET TYPOLOGIES Park Promenade Shared Streets Walkways Scatter Crossing Champion a Park Promenade The Park Promenade which wraps around the perimeter of the neighborhood field serves as a primary pedestrian link through the site, connecting West Temple to 1300 South in a biophilic environment that is restorative, safe, and welcoming. Enable Shared Streets These internal streets, shown as pink arrows in the corresponding figure, serve as secondary pedestrian connectors to the Park Promenade. At the same time, they must accommodate emergency vehicles, event loading and servicing, as well as access to parking and loading areas for adjacent buildings. Establish Ground Floor Walkways New buildings with a long frontage should establish public walkways to allow additional options for pedestrians to enter into the interior of the site. Create a 1300 South Mid-Block Scatter Crossing A mid-block scatter crossing is introduced to ensure seamless movement between the two parcels on either side of the street. Positioned at the heart of the site, this crossing allows people to move diagonally, laterally, and directly across the intersection, improving convenience, walkability, and visibility. NORTH The Design Framework46 47 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Development Blocks Informed by the mobility framework and with an emphasis on a fine grain, human scaled urban fabric, the site is organized into 11 blocks for vertical development. PARCELS ACREAGE A 1.0 B 0.9 C 2.3 D 1.6 E 1.0 F 3.4 G 1.0 H 0.9 I 0.5 J 0.8 K 0.9 L 0.5 Development blocks are the foundation for walkable urban fabric and well-proportioned, visually engaging, and high-performing architecture. The approximate acreage for each block is listed in the table below and approximate dimensions are featured on the figure on the corresponding page. NORTH Land Parcelization All development blocks provide space for roadways, parks, and plazas. The acreage for Blocks C and F are larger due to the proposed location of parkspace. Public Realm Allocation The Design Framework48 49 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Urban Form The shape, scale, and height of buildings play a key role in defining the character and experience of a place. The proposed urban form framework sculpts building heights through the site to balance the need for density with access to natural light and views. NORTH 150 Feet 120 Feet 85 Feet 45 Feet 45 Feet 45 Feet45 Feet 45 Feet 120 Feet 65 Feet 85 Feet Highest Density Around 1300 South The framework concentrates the tallest height at the southwestern corner of 1300 South and West Temple, with allowable heights of up to 150 feet. This height reinforces a bold and iconic western gateway to the site. The parcels directly north and east step down to an allowable height of 120 feet. Both parking garages on the south and north block have an allowable height of 85 feet. However, to reduce the height of the Block G parking garage while maintaining adequate parking capacity, underground parking decks could be considered in future phases. While this approach could preserve views of the Mountains, it comes with significant cost and sustainability implications. ALLOWABLE BUILDING HEIGHTS Ballpark Structure 150 Feet 120 Feet 85 Feet 60 Feet 45 Feet Preserve Vews of the Wasatch Mountains To preserve the views to the Wasatch Mountains, parcels K and H are limited to 45 feet. This allows clear views from the revitalized stadium as well as key site locations such as the intersection of 1300 South and West Temple Street. Thoughtfully Blending into the Neighborhood The parcels at the northern and southern edges are planned for higher density, but their scale is carefully calibrated to transition smoothly into the surrounding neighborhood, ensuring the new development feels integrated, not out of place. The Design Framework50 51 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Service and Access While prioritizing pedestrian movement, the framework ensures interior roadways can accommodate vehicles, meeting fire requirements and providing clearly demarcated areas for service, parking, and pick up/drop off. SERVICE AND LOADING Emergency Access Streets Service Entries Lobby Entries Service Streets Pick-Up/Drop-Off Vehicle Access Parking GaragesP Emergency Access Streets The internal roadways are designed for everyday use but built to support fire access when needed. The Park Promenade and Shared Pathways are designated as emergency access streets with the appropriate width for fire access. The approximate roadway width for emergency access streets is 40 feet. Service Streets These are shared streets with appropriate width for garbage trucks and other service vehicles. The approximate roadway width for the service streets is 30 feet. NORTH Shared Parking Garages Two shared parking garages are located on either side of 1300 South. Parking Garage South has access from Main Street and Parking Garage North has access from mid-block service street. Service and Lobby Entries Main Street provides direct vehicular access for Fire Station 8. All service entries are sited on service streets along the backside of new development. Lobby entries are primarily sited along existing roadways like West Temple Street, 1300 South, Main Street, Richards Street, and Paxton Street. However, multi-family housing blocks have lobby entries along the shared streets and/or alleyways. Designated Pick-Up/Drop-Off Designated pick-up/drop-off areas for events are located on West Temple, 1300 South, and Main Street. The Design Framework52 53 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework A Walkable, Transit-Oriented Future kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 Figure 8 – 1300 South Design Concept The Smith’s Ballpark site, just a five minute walk from TRAX and UTA bus service, is ideal for Transit-Oriented Development. To unlock its potential, 1300 South must be redesigned as a safe, low-stress, multi- modal street that enhances transit access and walkability. Currently, the pedestrian environment between the Ballpark TRAX Station and the development site is suboptimal. The existing 10-foot-wide sidewalk along 1300 South lacks a landscaped buffer from traffic, leaving pedestrians exposed to high vehicle volumes and speeds. This results in an unpleasant and potentially unsafe walking experience. To enhance walkability, safety, and multimodal connectivity, the following pedestrian-focused urban design strategies are recommended: • Wider sidewalks with landscaped buffers to separate pedestrians from traffic. • Enhanced pedestrian crossings for safer street navigation. • Improved lighting and wayfinding to support visibility and orientation. A high-level design concept for 1300 South proposes several key improvements: • No direct vehicle access to the development from 1300 South, reinforcing a pedestrian- priority corridor. • Raised intersection at 1300 South & Richards Street, designed to prioritize pedestrian movement while maintaining vehicle access. • Upgrade of the existing pedestrian hybrid beacon (PHB) to a full pedestrian signal for improved safety. • Development setbacks on both the north and south parcels of the Ballpark site, enabling widened sidewalks accommodating a comfortable pedestrian zone with a double row of trees. Beyond the boundaries of the Ballpark Next project, further improvements to the pedestrian realm along 1300 South will require collaboration with adjacent property owners to ensure a cohesive and inviting street experience. This graphic is meant for illustration purposes only. Future modifications to 1300 South will require additional analysis and approval by Salt Lake City’s Transportation Division. An illustrative vignette of the 1300 South Street experience features a generous sidewalk that supports a comfortable pedestrian pathway, alongside a furnishing zone designed to accommodate a double row of trees and street furniture such as benches and pedestrian scale street lights.

Future rezoning efforts should align permitted uses with the proposed land uses and densities specified in this scenario. Multi-family housing is broadly defined to accommodate market-rate, workforce, student, and below market rate to ensure diverse options that meet community needs. Future phases of work will determine more details of the housing mix including family size units and pathways for homeownership. As part of this planning effort, a proposed Public Library branch is identified for the corner of Main Street and 1300 South. However, the final site selection will occur in a future phase of the project. Program Notes and Assmptions In order to calculate the approximate yield shown below, the following assumptions were used: • Residential Unit Size: 1000 sq.ft. • Hotel Room Size: 400 sq.ft. • Parking Stall Size: 400 sq.ft. The programs and resulting yields are listed below: The Design Framework56 57 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Multi-family housing is permitted throughout the site, with a total of approximately 400 new units planned. The framework focuses higher-density development along 1300 South and the northern block, while lower-density housing is concentrated along the southern edge. This approach is intended to maximize flexibility, accommodating a diverse mix of housing types, from rental apartments to townhomes to support residents across various income levels and life stages. Senior Housing is proposed above the public library branch at the corner of 1300 South and Main Street. This allows seniors direct access to the library’s services and programming, reinforcing resilience and aging in place. The Northtown Library in Chicago featured in the image below is a good example of how a public library and senior housing can successfully co-locate. A hotel is proposed at the corner of 1300 South and West Temple, adjacent to the adapted ballpark structure and the neighborhood park. Incorporating hospitality use with ground- floor retail aims to activate this intersection throughout the day and week. A Sports and Entertainment Event Venue is the primary use for the adapted Smith’s Ballpark. The ground floor includes local shops on West Temple as well as storage, restrooms and concession areas. The upper floors include leasable commercial spaces and a rooftop restaurant/bar. There are approximately 3,700 stadium seats preserved. 1 2 5 6 Fire Station 8 is relocated further south on Main Street. The ground floor includes four truck bays, a front office, as well as operational facilities including tool and medical gear storage. The upper floors include a large central kitchen, fitness area, and dormitories. Ground-floor retail is permitted along the edges of the development, with local shops and neighborhood services envisioned for the adapted ballpark structure and new buildings fronting both sides of 1300 South. The intersection of 1300 South and West Temple is designed as a prominent western gateway into the site, animated by a vibrant mix of shops and restaurants. Additional retail may also be integrated along Main Street to support broader urban design goals for a more walkable and active streetscape. 3 4 A library branch is proposed at the corner of 1300 South and Main Street, establishing an eastern civic gateway into the site. The location was selected in part for its proximity to key educational anchors, including the Horizonte School and Challenger School. The timing of the library’s development will be contingent upon the relocation of the existing fire station. Parking is distributed across with two municipal parking garages one on each block, serving adjacent development and events. Parking Garage North on 1300 South and Paxton Avenue contains approximately 405 parking spaces. Parking Garage South on Main Street contains approximately 370 parking space. Multi-family housing on select blocks have on- site parking where as mixed-use blocks on 1300 South will utilize the parking garages. Parking needs for the fire station are not be shared with the rest of the development. 7 8 © Perkins&Will© Perkins&Will © Perkins&Will© Perkins&Will The Design Framework58 59 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Parking Framework To take advantage of the site’s proximity to transit while ensuring adequate parking for residents and events, the parking framework calibrates the supply to meet demand appropriately. Shared Parking The site is designed to support a shared parking model, maximizing efficiency and ensuring optimal use of parking spaces by different user groups throughout the day and night. While some multi-family buildings include on-site parking reserved for residents, most parking is shared at the site’s two parking garages. Park Once Environment Parking entrances are strategically positioned to minimize the presence of vehicles within the site’s interior and to encourage sustainable modes of transportation such as walking and biking Parking Requirements Section 21A.44.040 of the Salt Lake City Code of Ordinances establishes minimum requirements for off-street parking. As this development falls under the transit context, there are no minimum parking requirements. Parking Supply The development plan includes approximately 964 parking stalls overall, with 505 located in the northern block and 459 in the southern block. A detailed breakdown is provided in the accompanying table. Parcels are categorized as follows: those with on-site parking, where dedicated resident spaces are integrated within the building; ‘Garage,’ which refers to shared parking facilities accessible to all users of the development; ‘No On-Site Parking,’ where residents utilize the shared garages; and the fire station, which will have its own dedicated spaces.

The diagrams below illustrate how state-mandated buffer zones - 300 feet for restaurants and 600 feet for other types of alcohol outlets - shape where these establishments may be located. These spatial constraints are a key consideration in ground-floor planning and ensuring alignment with regulatory requirements. Proposed Community Locations With Required Buffers Alcohol-Serving Restaurants Must Be 300 Feet from Protected Uses All Other Alcohol Outlets Must Be 600 Feet from Protected Uses Allowable Locations for Restaurants and All Other Alcohol Outlets Restaurants Serving Alcohol All Other Alcohol Outlets The site includes two existing community facilities: Horizonte Instruction and Training Center and Challenger School as well as a proposed public library at the corner of 1300 South and Main Street, which is also considered a community location. This diagram measures 300 feet in pedestrian walking distance from the nearest patron entrance of the proposed outlet to the property boundary of the community location. This diagram measures 600 feet in pedestrian walking distance from the nearest patron entrance of the proposed outlet to the property boundary of the community location. This diagram show the remaining eligible locations for alcohol-serving restaurants and other alcohol outlets after applying buffer regulations. The Design Framework62 63 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Ground Floor Active Uses Active ground floor uses are concentrated along 1300 South, West Temple Street, and Main Street to enhance vibrancy, support walkability, and create a lively public realm. NORTH Programming along these frontages prioritizes uses that extend into the public realm—cafés, corner stores, coworking hubs, and community spaces that invite people to linger, gather, and return. These edges are social anchors. Material choices, canopy depths, and window transparency are all considered to support street-level comfort. Design for the ground floors is tactical, making the everyday act of walking, meeting, or pausing feel natural and safe. © Perkins&Will © Bruce Damonte GROUND FLOOR USES Active Use (Restaurants Serving Alcohol Permitted) Active Use (No Alcohol Permitted)Residential Entry Active Use (All Other Alcohol Outlets Permitted) Library Entry The Design Framework64 65 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Landscape Framework Inspired by the tree-covered canyons that cascade into the valley, the landscape framework invites nature to weave seamlessly throughout the site. Drawing from the rich ecology of the Wasatch Front, such as the Great Basin Sagebrush and the verdant Shurband canyons where natural creeks carve through the landscape, it reflects a deep connection to the region’s natural character. NORTH Preserve Existing Street Trees The urban forestry approach prioritizes the preservation of existing street trees, while promoting native tree plantings that rehabilitate habitat and provide a canopy of shade and cover for understory plants and people. The Softscape Plan The design strikes a balance between manicured spaces for entertainment and sporting events at the neighborhood field to surrounding native plantings to improve overall habitat. 1 1 3 3 4 4 2 2 LANDSCAPE ELEMENTS Preserved Street Trees Urban Elements Softscape Elements Hardscape Elements The Hardscape Plan The design puts forward a paving system which extends across the site, encouraging a pedestrian first environment. The pavers are designed in sync with built in benches and landscaped areas. Educational placards are integrated into the paving, telling the rich history of the site. Urban Elements The design of urban elements like built in benches, lighting with banners, and planters are coordinated with a distinct color palette and environmental signage to establish the unique identity of Ballpark NEXT. The Design Framework66 67 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Open Space Typologies NORTH Open spaces are the heart of community life. This section presents a range of public spaces intentionally designed to foster connection, support well-being, and cultivate a strong sense of place. The Creek Park 0.7 acres Located on the northern edge of 1300 South, the Creek Park is a natural space that reveals and celebrates the site’s hidden creeks - Red Butte Creek, Emigration Creek, and Parley’s Creek. The Festival Street 1.3 acres Located on a segment of West Temple Street in front of the Ballpark, the Festival Street is intended to be a venue for weekly local neighborhood events like farmer’s markets, while being open to traffic on non-event days. The Neighborhood Field 1.2 acres The former baseball diamond and outer fields have been converted into a multi- functional field serving local and city sporting and entertainment events. The field is connected to the adaptive re-use of the Ballpark. The Park Promenade 1.5 acres A linear park that weaves through the site, the Park Promenade has generous shade trees, nature-based play areas, and a variety of seating options for rest, gathering, and casual activity. The Library Court 0.1 acres This is an activated urban plaza along Main Street, used primarily as a space to showcase the Library’s programs and events. The court also serves as a mid- block walkway to the Park Promenade and Neighborhood Field. 1 2 3 4 5 The Design Framework68 69 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Landscape Framework: Water The water framework focuses on two key ideas: first, the daylighting of three creeks; and second, the integration of water elements throughout the site to support cooling, biodiversity, and overall environmental health. NORTH Daylighting Creeks The Creek Park brings water back to the surface, partially daylighting three creeks buried beneath 1300 South. One potential strategy to achieve this is by installing diversion structures to remove water from the existing 1300 South system and a control structure to re-enter the 1300 South system. This act of restoration turns forgotten flows into a living feature—cooling the site, supporting ecosystems, and inviting people to gather around water as a source of life, beauty, and connection in the city. WATER ELEMENTS Creek Water Flow Open Water Elements Stormwater Bioswales Stormwater Swales Several open water elements, designed as stormwater swales, are integrated around the Neighborhood Field. While they may not hold water year-round, depending on rainfall and seasonal conditions, they play a vital role in managing stormwater on site. These swales help filter pollutants, support native planting, and create small pockets of cleaner, cooler air, offering both ecological and public health benefits for the community. 1 1 2 2 The Design Framework70 71 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Landscape Framework: North Block Neighborhood life in the North Block centers around the Creek Park, which celebrates the site’s restored creeks and urban biodiversity. Adjacent hardscaped plazas create opportunities for restaurants, cafés, and local shops to spill out into gathering spaces along the park’s edge. Like Tanner Springs Park in Portland, the Creek Park weaves stormwater function, native ecology, and layered history into a central public space. It restores visibility to hidden creeks while offering a place for gathering, reflection, and everyday connection to nature. © GreenWorks The Design Framework72 73 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Landscape Framework: South Block The South Block is organized around the adapted Neighborhood Field. A tree-shaded Park Promenade runs through the block, linking all parcels with a continuous path and offering quiet moments to pause, gather, or play along the way. A lush, tree-lined walkway demonstrates how native plantings and layered vegetation can enhance biodiversity, offer shade, and create a welcoming pedestrian experience at the Park Promenade. This turns the streetscape into both green infrastructure and a lively community space. This playful urban landscape shows how topography, texture, and informal play elements can create moments of exploration and delight in everyday spaces. At Ballpark NEXT, similar design strategies—like elevated pathways, boulders, and integrated seating—can transform circulation routes and plazas into opportunities for movement and engagement. © Scape © Béton Brut The Design Framework74 75 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework At the heart of the development is the Neighborhood Field and the Park Promenade, the central open space designed to welcome residents, employees, and visitors of all ages. The Design Framework76 77 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Framework Social Infrastructure NORTH Social infrastructure encompasses the spaces and services that nurture the Social Determinants of Health, promoting physical well- being, social bonds, learning opportunities, and access to care. These elements lay the groundwork for a resilient and thriving community. The following uses establish a foundation for meaningful, community- centered investment at the heart of the neighborhood. Attainable Homeownership Opportunities These opportunities are distributed across several residential blocks, supporting long-term stability for local families. While the CRA will prioritize creating ownership opportunities as part of this development, affordable rental options may also be considered in alignment with the CRA’s mission, the Board’s housing priorities, and prevailing market conditions. Local Small Businesses The re-adapted ballpark structure is envisioned as a hub for local small businesses, offering affordable commercial leases that help sustain neighborhood entrepreneurship and cultural identity. Local Fresh Food To support health and food access in the Ballpark NEXT neighborhood, a location has been identified for a fresh food market. Positioned near key pedestrian routes and transit, the market provides walkable access to affordable, nutritious options— addressing a long-standing gap in healthy food availability and supporting local food systems. Public Library A public library is proposed at the corner of 1300 South and Main Street, establishing a civic anchor for the neighborhood. This location supports walkable access to learning, resources, and gathering space— fostering community connection and lifelong education. Places for Play Ballpark NEXT reimagines play as an everyday experience for all ages. The former ballfield becomes a flexible open space for informal sports and community events, while a dedicated children’s play area offers safe, shaded play close to residential blocks. Together, these spaces support physical activity, social connection, and intergenerational recreation—core elements of a healthy, vibrant neighborhood. The Destination CHAPTER 04 80 81 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Destination Multipurpose Event Venue Once a single-use stadium, Smith’s Ballpark is reimagined as a vibrant destination for both the neighborhood and the city—blending open space, active ground floors, and varied programming into a civic hub. *Calculated with 7 square feet per capita space requirement. Sports The adaptable layout of neighborhood fields supports both informal community sports and formal events. For example: • Informal pick-up games, such as casual youth soccer matches or friendly basketball sessions. • Formal events, including youth soccer tournaments, X Games competitions, and sporting events leading up to the Olympics. Measuring 240 feet in length (80 yards) by 165 feet in width (55 yards), the multi-use field is spacious enough to host a regulation youth soccer match. Designed for versatility, the field easily transitions between informal, unstructured play and organized sporting events. Cultural The new venue offers a combined capacity of approximately 9,000 spectators—filling a gap in Salt Lake City’s current venue landscape. This versatile space is ideal for hosting both large music events and smaller community functions, such as: • Concerts • DIY festivals • Utah beer festivals • Urban flea markets Spaces for Small Local Businesses Suite Level Restaurant, Roof Bar, and Event Space Community Programming/ Gathering Spaces Event Supportive Concourse Level 82 83 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Destination Adaptive Reuse of Smith’s Ballpark The decision to preserve a segment of Smith’s Ballpark was determined through a structural assessment and the collective desire to celebrate an important part of Salt Lake City’s history. Structural Framing System Smith’s Ballpark has a main structural framing system of cast-in-place (CIP) concrete bearing walls and steel framing and columns with precast risers in the elevated seating area, composite steel deck on the second and third floors, and metal deck on steel trusses for the high roof. The lateral force resisting system of the structure is special concrete shear walls at the ground level, and special steel moment frames at elevated levels. Non-Load Bearing Elements The ground floor consists of Infill, non-load bearing concrete masonry unit (CMU) walls. The CMU can be removed to provide greater ground floor transparency. Cast-In-Place Concrete Underneath the first level of precast seating risers there are cast-in-place concrete tunnels comprised of retaining walls that lead to the field and dugouts. Expansion Joints Smith’s Ballpark is divided into three areas, named the south wing, center structure, and east wing. It has three levels, the ground level, second floor (concourse area), and the third floor (suite level). The south and east wings are open-air areas where most of the seating is located. The center structure contains enclosed, suite-style seating. These three areas are structurally isolated with expansion joints which enables partial demolition. Architectural Elements Preservation The adaptive reuse of the building will aim to preserve key architectural elements while exploring opportunities for repurposing them either on-site or at other locations throughout the city. A notable example is the commissioned etched glass installation in the stadium’s towers entitled, ‘Lanterns of Salt Lake City Baseball’, designed by Paul Heath and William Littig. 1 2 3 4 South Wing Center Structure East Wing Expansion Joints 1 2 3 4 55 84 85 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Destination Reimagining a Historic Landmark New Roof Extension The proposal includes a new standing seam roof extension that provides shade and a sense of enclosure along Festival Street creating an outdoor room that encourages moments of pause and recreation. CLT and Steel Structural Addition Inspired by the tectonics of the existing steel structure, the design introduces a new cross-laminated timber (CLT) and steel truss system to support the roof extension. This contemporary intervention injects new architectural life into the structure, elevating the overall design with warmth, contrast, and a refined material palette. Existing Structure The existing steel structure, which is generally in good condition, will undergo preventative maintenance to extend its serviceable life. 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 4 6 6 Circulation Cores All vertical circulation will be retrofitted to meet accessibility requirements related to occupancy. The preserved tower in the selected section is reimagined with a structural refresh, transforming it into an iconic beacon. Additionally, a sculptural ADA-compliant ramp is proposed, rising from the Festival Street and landing directly on the concourse level. Entrance Portals Both existing and new entrances will be enhanced with prominent, vibrantly colored portals to create a more welcoming atmosphere, improve visibility, and support intuitive wayfinding. New Facade Treatment The existing concrete masonry unit (CMU) infill walls along the exterior façade will be replaced with glass curtain walls to improve visual porosity and activate the street edge. A string of small businesses will line the base, spilling out onto Festival Street to create a lively pedestrian environment. Following partial demolition, the southern wing of the remaining Ballpark will be enhanced with contemporary architectural elements that support new event and community programming, while reinforcing the structure’s role as a lasting, iconic symbol for the neighborhood. 86 87 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Destination A Revitalized SLC Destination.

Now, through adaptive reuse, it is reimagined as a dynamic community hub designed for all ages and abilities. The transformed space invites both daily rituals and chance encounters, from morning runs and youth athletic training for the Olympics to elder wellness routines and inclusive, intergenerational play. Why This Matters Seasonal events and gathering spaces reduce social isolation, enhance cognitive function in o l d e r adults, and support emotional resilience and mental health a c r o s s all age groups. I just scored the winning goal at the Fall Soccer Tournament!! I’m enjoying the spring weather with a “Movies in the Field” series! This local annual winter ritual is so fun! Getting to perform at the Ballpark Summer Festival is rad! The Experience The Experience94 95 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Experience The Festival Street The Ballpark has long brought people together on game days, energizing the neighborhood and supporting local businesses. Building on that legacy, the adapted Ballpark promotes economic stability through subsidized ground-floor spaces for small, local businesses. West Temple transforms into a Festival Street, hosting farmers markets, pop-ups, and cultural events. These interventons create pathways to local wealth-building and advancing health equity. Why This Matters Planning for local businesses encourages economic participa t i o n , which is closely tied to health equity, access to resources, and reduced stress in underserved communities. This pop-up gave me the perfect chance to launch my new digital app right in my own neighborhood. Living here means being part of something thriving and a great place to raise my kids. Buying local produce every Sunday keeps me healthy, and supports my neighbors.

Health-supportive design is woven into daily life, making care accessible, familiar, and community-based. A network of ground-floor services—clinics, pharmacies, fresh food markets, and mental health providers—prioritizes proximity and affordability, supporting chronic care, timely treatment, and reduced reliance on emergency services. Why This Matters Community clinics and testing centers enable early diagnosis a n d preventive care, which are esse n t i a l for proactively managing heal t h and reducing emergency room visits. Got a prescription from the clinic, and I can fill it right next door—so convenient. This clinic helps me stay on top of my health—I’ve never felt more supported. It’s a game changer having fresh produce right in the neighborhood. The Experience The Experience98 99 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Experience Why This Matters Increased tree canopy and vegetation help filter air pollu t a n t s , improve air quality and reduce asthma, allergies, and other respiratory issues—particularly important in historically redlin e d areas that often face environm e n t a l injustice. The Creek Park Creek Park reveals and celebrates the site’s hidden creeks to restore a sense of place and a daily connection to nature. This green vision brings shade, fresh air, and calm to a neighborhood long underserved by open space. It creates a cooling microclimate, boosts biodiversity, and improves air quality, especially vital in historically redlined communities facing higher environmental burdens. These investments promote health, resilience, and everyday joy in the Ballpark neighborhood. Our grandkids always want to visit now—this creek park is their favorite part of the neighborhood. This tree-lined street makes my morning runs feel like a breath of fresh air—literally. Spotted a Western Tanager while biking— nature feels closer than ever out here. The Experience The Experience100 101 Ballpark Next Community Design Plan The Experience The Library The new Public Library anchors a vibrant Civic Edge for lifelong learning and community connection. It offers indoor and outdoor spaces for both formal and informal learning where children read with grandparents, students study, and neighbors gather around shared stories. By making high-quality educational resources walkable and transit-accessible, the Library helps close opportunity gaps, boost digital literacy, and open pathways to upward socio-economic mobility. Why This Matters Improved educational access contributes to higher income potential, better job opportunit i e s , and stable housing, all of which a r e core social determinants of hea l t h that directly impact life expect a n c y and well-being. This library is so easy to access from the TRAX station—it makes learning feel open to everyone. My dad and I are picking up a book about Ballpark’s history after school—it’s cool learning about our neighborhood. Spending time in the outdoor exploratorium after work helps me unwind and stay curious.

The current CDC/ATSDR Social Vulnerability Index uses 16 U.S. census variables from the 5-year American Community Survey (ACS) to identify communities that may need support before, during, or after disasters. These variables are grouped into four themes that cover four major areas of social vulnerability:The Ballpark Tract has a score of 0.9108, indicating a high level of vulnerability. Source: Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry CDC Social Vulnerability Index 15Ballpark NEXT Health Equity Site Assessment 01 ― Health Equity Assessment Environmental Justice Index (EJI) The Ballpark Tract has an EJI rank of 0.89, indicating that only 11% more tracts in the nation likely expeience more severe cumulative impacts from environmental burden. Environmental Justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people, regardless of race, color, national origin, or income, to develop, implement, and enforce environmental laws, regulations, and policies. *Health vulnerability measures are marked with asterisks as they are calculated differently than other indicators. While most indicators can have a range of values, the health vulnerability indicators only represent whether or not a given census tract experiences a high estimated prevalence of disease.

Life Expectancy Gap Residents in the Ballpark area have a life expectancy that is, on average, 5 years shorter than those living in more affluent neighborhoods of Salt Lake City. In general, west-side residents have a life expectancy nearly ten years less than their east-side counterparts. This disparity is closely tied to social determinants like income, education, and access to healthcare. 2. High Rates of Chronic Disease The prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes and asthma is significantly higher in the Ballpark census tract, with rates nearly double those of the city average. These conditions are often linked to environmental factors and limited access to preventive care. 3. Limited Access to Healthy Foods Over 30% of households in the Ballpark tract are in food deserts, suggesting these households have limited access to fresh, healthy foods. This contributes to poor nutrition and higher rates of diet-related illnesses. 4. Housing Instability Nearly 30% of residents in the Ballpark area spend more than half of their income on housing, leaving little room for other essential expenses like healthcare and transportation. This high cost-burden is a significant factor in health inequity. 5. Economic Instability The Ballpark area has a high percentage of people living below 150% of the poverty level, with rates more than double of the Salt Lake County average. This impacts access to quality education, healthy foods, and basic services such as broadband internet subscriptions. 6. Environmental Exposure Risk The Ballpark area has higher exposure to environmental hazards, including poor air quality and proximity to industrial waste sites. These factors contribute to respiratory issues (like asthma) and other health problems, disproportionately affecting low-income and minority populations. 17Ballpark NEXT Health Equity Site Assessment Economic Stability Neighborhood and Built Environment Social and Community Context Education Access and Quality Healthcare Access and Quality 02 ― Design Recommendations and Priority Matrix Design Strategies and Program Elements 18Ballpark NEXT Health Equity Site Assessment 02 ― Design Recommendations and Priority Matrix Design Strategies and Programs Economic Stability Job Training and Education Center Ground Floor Local Businesses R&D Labs Market Stall Community Owned Enterprise (Co-ops) Urban Agriculture and Community Garden Community Finance Hub Subsidized Amenities for Ballpark Residents Public Market and Food Hub Mixed-Income Housing Top Priorities 19Ballpark NEXT Health Equity Site Assessment Childhood Education Center Conference/Lecture Space Higher Education Satellite Campus Outdoor Exploratorium Community Collaborative Learning Space Educational Play Space Vocational Training Tech Equipped Public Space (Free Wifi, Power Outlets) Art and Cultural Workshops Public Library Outdoor Classrooms 02 ― Design Recommendations and Priority Matrix Design Strategies and Programs Education Access and Quality Top Priorities 20Ballpark NEXT Health Equity Site Assessment Community Health Clinic Pharmacy and Health Supply Access Integrated Healthcare and Social Services Fitness Center Mental Healthcare and Social Services Produce Market Mobile Health Unit Senior Living/Assisted Living Telehealth and Digital Health Kiosks Healthcare Access and Quality02 ― Design Recommendations and Priority Matrix Design Strategies and Programs Top Priorities 21Ballpark NEXT Health Equity Site Assessment Wide Sidewalks and Protected Bike Lanes Outdoor Exercise Spaces Mid Block Paseos Sustainable Building Design Pedestrian-Oriented Public Spaces Green Stormwater Infrastructure Public Art and Cultural Expression Mixed-Use Development Introspective Landscapes Neighborhood Square Safe and Inclusive Play Spaces Low-Emission Zone Public Observation Deck Sports Fields and Recreation Space Neighborhood and Built Environment02 ― Design Recommendations and Priority Matrix Design Strategies and Programs Top Priorities 22Ballpark NEXT Health Equity Site Assessment Community Gathering Spaces Night Market Cultural Center Museum, Exhibition Spaces Youth, Teen and Family Center Heritage Markers Community Center Splash Pad Interactive Playscape Outdoor Performance Stage Botanical Garden Social and Community Context02 ― Design Recommendations and Priority Matrix Design Strategies and Programs Top Priorities 23Ballpark NEXT Health Equity Site Assessment 02 ― Design Recommendations and Priority Matrix Stakeholder Prioritization Exercise Results Public Market/ Food Hall Public Library Produce Market Wide Sidewalks and Protected Bike Lanes Outdoor Performance Stage Ground Floor Local Businesses Arts and Cultural Workshops Fitness Center Neighborhood Square Community Gathering Space Night MarketMixed-Use Development Outdoor Exploratorium Subsidized Amenities for Ballpark Residents During Stakeholder Ideation Session 1, approximately 30 participants took part in an exercise where each was given five stickers to prioritize one program on each board.

SITE CONTEXT i. Nearby Land Use and Amenities The area adjacent to the site is primarily commercial with a mix of some residential and industrial. Both single-family and high-density residential units can be found to the south and southeast of the ballpark. The Ball Park Neighborhood offers few shopping and dining accommodations. Most of the surrounding area is commercial business, most of which are lacking storefronts. Salt Lake City’s downtown hub is located than two miles north of the site. The two closest green spaces/parks reside along Jefferson Street. The park to the north, Jeffersons Rectangular Park, consists of an open green space originally designed as an emergency detention pond for the city. South of the ballpark, but still along Jefferson Street, is a park called Jefferson Park. Jefferson Park has a swing set and playground as well as a large open green space. ii. Vehicular Transportation Figure 1 shows the greater study area. The site’s main frontage is located along 1300 South, a five-lane roadway to the north. 1300 South adjacent to the site is owned and maintained by Salt Lake City. Main Street, a 3-lane roadway with buffered bike lanes and street parking, borders the site to the east. West Temple runs west of the site and is a 2-lane roadway with regulated street parking. The site also includes a surface level parking lot north of 1300 South along West Temple. Half a mile to the west is Interstate 15 with on and off ramps servicing 1300 South. State Street to the east is a major roadway carrying traffic north and south. It’s a six-lane road with two turn lanes at the 1300 South intersection. Figure 1: Vicinity Map iii. Exiting and Historical Traffic Volumes Existing 2023 data for the study area extracted from WFRC’s Utah Stateside Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) – Historic & Forecast web map1, and is shown in Figure 2.

Safety Crash data for the years 2019 through 2023 were obtained from the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT). The data reported a total of 1,732 crashes within the study area. Removing crashes recorded on Interstate 15 as well as on and off ramps, 793 crashes were reported. Figure 3 shows crashes reported by year and crash severity. The years with the highest number of crashes within the 5-year study period were 2019 and 2021 with 190 reported crashes. However, 2022 saw the highest number of fatal crashes, with 3 reported fatalities. Figure 4: Crash Severity (2019-2023) Figure 4 shows the distribution of all crashes to identify crash “hot-spots” while also highlighting fatal or suspected serious crashes involved a pedestrian or cyclist. 1 1 3 106 70 110 69 74 58 34 33 34 27 24 28 40 30 29 2 4 6 5 5 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Crash Severity by Year Fatal No injury/PDO Possible injury Suspected Minor Injury Suspected Serious Injury Figure 5: Crash Distribution Figure 5 summarizes pedestrian and bicycle involved crashes. A total of 98 crashes were reported involving a pedestrian or cyclist. 2021 saw the most pedestrian involved crashes with 17 reported crashes. In 2023 bicycle-involved crashes were the highest with 12 reported crashes. There were 3 reported fatal pedestrian-involved crashes in the study period. All occurred in 2022; two occurred on State Street and one at the intersection of 1300 South and Major Street, just half a block away from the Smiths Ballpark. All three crashes occurred in the evening without daylight. One incident occurred while the pedestrian was in an unmarked crosswalk (crossing Major Street on the north side of 1300 South), the second one occurred while the pedestrian was in a marked crosswalk crossing State Street at Harvard Avenue, and the third fatal crash occurred while the pedestrian was in the travel lane (not in a crosswalk or intersection). A total of 10 crashes occurred where the pedestrian is suspected to have sustained serious injuries. Three of these crashes occurred on 1300 South and two at the intersection of 1300 South and State Street. Between 2019 and 2023, a total of 31 bicycle-involved crashes were reported in the study area. The most crashes (12) were reported in 2023, one crash resulted in a possible injury and 11 crashes resulted in suspected minor injury. One fatal bicycle-involved crash occurred in 2020 on State Street just north of Kensington Avenue.

Non-motorized Transportation Generally, most streets surrounding the site have sidewalks. There are some industrial areas in the vicinity that currently lack sidewalks; these streets usually lead to light industrial or manufacturing \uses. Accessing the ballpark via bicycle is possible on Main Street, as the street offers a buffered bike lane in both directions. Other bicycle facilities in the study area include a 2-way cycle tack on 900 South and 300 West. 1700 South offers a painted bike lane until the TRAX lines. From there, going east, the painted bike lane becomes a buffered bike lane, offering slightly more protection and separation between cyclists and vehicular traffic. All major intersections along 1300 East are signalized intersection. A midblock crossing at Richard Street offers an additional crossing opportunity with a pedestrian activated beacon (formerly known as “HAWK Light”). Figure 7 illustrates transit and active transportation infrastructure in the study area. Figure 7: Transit and Active Transportation Infrastructure vii. Transit Utah Transit Authority (UTA) operates three bus routes and three TRAX lines in the study area. Study Area routes are summarized in Table 3 and Figure 7.

Previous Plans & Studies a. Ballpark Station Area Plan (SAP) - 2022 The Ballpark SAP recommends or identifies the following: • Study the potential future lane reconfiguration of 1300 South to eliminate or narrow traffic lanes and expand and improve the sidewalk. • Utilize existing alleyways, midblock, and truncated connections to create a system of bike and pedestrian pathways through the neighborhood. • Reconfigure Ballpark TRAX Station to allow access from both the east and west sides of the station as well as the north end of the platform from Lucy Avenue/200 West on the west side of the TRAX rails. • Consider re-developing TRAX Station parking and bus turnaround for higher density uses and to provide neighborhood amenities. • Install pedestrian crossings east and west of TRAX on 1300 South on either side of the UTA crossing barrier. • In-line bus service at Ballpark Station with riders accessing the platform directly from sidewalk for Westbound busses on 1300 South or by crossing 1300 S for eastbound busses. • Redevelop part of the current SLC and UTA owned properties – most of which is surface parking on north side of 1300 S between Main and TRAX line to transit supportive uses that include retail, shops, and service near the Ballpark Station platform. -2500 -2000 -1500 -1000 -500 0 500 1000 1500 2000 2500 Bo a r d i n g / / A l i g h t i n g P a s s e n g e r s TRAX Station Boarding Alighting • The unused rail spur between 200 West and 400 West between Paxton Avenue and 900 South is planned for future TRAX extension and adjacent trail into the Granary District. • Improve pedestrian and bicyclist comfort by providing adequate sidewalk width, ADA accessibility, park strips on primary routes, pedestrian level lighting, ongoing maintenance of facilities, street furniture, improved bike lane markings and crossings, bike parking, and reducing sidewalk network gaps. • Potential future transit hub at 1700 S serving light rail and east-west bus service • Existing bikeway on Main Street with striped bike lanes. • A buffered bike lane is planned for 900 South from I-15 to 300 West. • A marked shared roadway is planned to connect Paxton Ave to 1300 S underpass • Transforming West Temple and plazas adjacent to the stadium from 1300 South to Albermarle Avenue into a Festival Street. • Improve east-west connectivity and crossings at TRAX lines to the north and the south of 1300 South to allow pedestrians and cyclists to move east-west without having to go to 1300 or 1700 South. b. Salt Lake City Pedestrian & Bicycle Master Plan – 2015 The plan identifies existing bikeways on Main Street, 300 East and 1300 South, east of State Street and areas of future improvements. Recommendations include adding an eastbound bike lane on 1300 South from 500 West to 300 West, and a protected bike lane on 300 West. On Paxton Avenue, shared lane markings were recommended from 400 West to West Temple before turning into a neighborhood byway from West Temple to 200 East via Kelsey Avenue and Edith Avenue. To make this a safe route, a HAWK signal at State Street and 120 feet of protected bike lane on the east side of State Street is recommended. A HAWK signal or protected intersection jog could also be considered for crossing 300 West on Paxton Avenue. From 200 West near Ballpark Station to the intersection of 400 West and 900 South, there is an unused rail spur. The plan recommends a trail along this right-of-way to connect the Ballpark neighborhood to the Granary District. c. Salt Lake City Transit Master Plan (SLC TMP) – 2017 A major emphasis of the SLC TMP is developing a Frequent Transit Network (FTN). Tier 1 FTN corridors include 200 West, State Street, 500 East, 900 East, and 1300 East. The latter two are important for building out the east-west grid. With the future addition of a grade separated railroad crossing as a FTN tier 2 upgrade at 900 S, both corridors would have frequent service between Redwood Rd and 1500 E. Another tier 2 upgrade is 1700 S to provide frequent service between State Street and Foothill Drive which will increase east-west mobility. As part of a FTN, there needs to be access to transit within a quarter mile walk of any location. Overall, the Ballpark neighborhood has adequate access except for the area between I-15 and Main Street from 1400 South to 2100 South. First and last mile service strategies such as ride share, bike share, and a community shuttle pilot are recommended in this area. Other recommended improvements to the area include increasing bike parking at transit stops, storage on transit, and committing to ongoing funding that identifies and constructs bicycle and pedestrian safety improvements. B. SITE ANALYSIS i. Site Characteristics The combined 13.82-acre site generally slopes from east to west at below half of a percent. Web Soil Survey states that the soils in the surrounding area consist of Urban Land. The portion of the site north of 1300 South is covered in paved parking where there are very few landscape islands breaking up the asphalt pavement. The north lot does however host some larger landscaping trees along the north, south, and west property boundaries. The west side of the ballpark property also consists of larger landscaping trees along its property boundary. i. Easements and Restrictions There has not been an ALTA survey completed for the subject site. An ALTA survey should be completed for the site to verify all easements and/or encumbrances. ii. Hydrology According to the FEMA Firm Panel 49035C0282H effective 8/2/2012 the parking lot portion of the site located north of 1300 S is located in Zone X. FEMA states that Zone X is “Area of Minimal Flood Hazzard”. The portion of the site to the south of 1300 S is not located in any FEMA flood hazards. Dry Creek, Emigration Creek and Parleys Creek are all flowing underground in two different pipe networks beneath 1300 South. These waterways are contained in both a 72-inch by 120-inch reinforced concrete channel and a separate 60-inch reinforced concrete pipe. Coordination with Salt Lake City flood control will need to take place to determine if these structures can be tapped into for site drainage discharge if needed. ii. Utilities a. Water – As shown in Figure 10, existing water lines are located in the roadways along the north, east, and west property boundary. 1300 South contains two water mains, a 16-inch and a 36-inch. Future development will not be able to connect to these water mains due to their size. West Temple to the west of the site contains a 6-inch cast iron pipe. If water connections along West Temple are desired, the existing water line will need to be upsized to a minimum 12-inch water line. There is a similar situation along the east side of the property in Main Street. The existing 6-inch cast iron pipe water line in Main Street will need to be upsized to a 12-inch water line if connected to in the future. A fire flow test should be completed to verify flow rates and pressures in the existing system. b. Sewer – As shown in Figure 10, Salt Lake City Public Utilities map, West Temple has an existing 36-inch sewer main line flowing from south to north in the center of the street. An existing 48-inch sewer main flows from east to west under the south side of 1300 South. An existing 8-inch sewer flows south to north under the east side of Main Street. There are existing service laterals extending into the property along the north and west sewer mains. The exact size, location and condition of the laterals is unknown at this time. The south-west corner of the ballpark property has an existing 12-inch PVC sanitary sewer cutting through the property. It is likely that the 12-inch sewer has an existing utility easement. c. Natural Gas – Unknow at this time. Further investigation needed. iii. Stormwater Management In the north lot, the existing storm drain network under the parking lot consists of 15-inch reinforced concrete pipe and captures water throughout a series of catch basins. The north parking lot further drains underground to the north. The ballpark portion of the property has a system of underground water storage tanks. The underground storage tanks can be found beneath the bleachers near the first and third base. These retention basins may be incorporated into future design after further investigation of the structural integrity. As mentioned in Section B.ii. Hydrology, there are buried creeks that run under 1300 South. Dry Creek, Emigration Creek and Parleys Creek flow beneath the road. If a drainage connection is desired, special permission will need to be obtained. As the site is developed, the design will need to meet Salt Lake City’s requirements for stormwater quantity and quality. Salt Lake City requires that the 100-year storm be detained with a maximum of 0.2 cfs/acre release rate. The city also requires that their MS4 permit requirements are fulfilled by retaining the 80th percentile storm on site. Figure 10: Existing Utilities kimley-horn.com 111 E.

The analysis included both on-street and off-street parking. Note that the inventory does not consider existing utilization of off-site parking by existing residents or businesses. It is an estimate of the total supply of parking within proximity to the BallPark Next area venue. On-street parking availability is summarized in Table 1. For streets with parallel parking, an average stall length of 22 feet was used to estimate capacity. For angled parking, a stall width of 7.5 feet was assumed. Off-street parking availability summarized in Table 2. The inventory consists of larger nearby parking lots where event patrons may choose to park to attend events at the BallPark Next venue. The distance from each street and lot to Smith’s Ballpark is shown in Figure 1. Page 2 kimley-horn.com 111 E.

The objective of our work was to visually observe the general condition of the structural elements within the stadium and identify deficient items to assess the feasibility of leaving the existing structural system for future construction. Our scope of work to date includes a field visit, review of as-built documents and preparation of this report. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Smith’s Ballpark is an existing baseball stadium that is roughly 30 years old, designed using the 1991 Utah Building Code. The main structural framing system consists of cast-in-place (CIP) concrete bearing walls and steel framing and columns with precast risers in the elevated seating area, composite steel deck on the second and third floors, and metal deck on steel trusses for the high roof. The lateral force resisting system of the structure is special concrete shear walls at the ground level, and special steel moment frames at elevated levels. Infill, non-load bearing concrete masonry unit (CMU) walls were also observed at the ground level. Underneath the first level of precast seating risers there are cast-in-place concrete tunnels comprised of retaining walls that lead to the field and dugouts. Smith’s Ballpark is divided into three areas, named the south wing, center structure, and east wing. Refer to the schematic site plan shown below. The south and east wings are open-air areas where most of the seating is located. The center structure contains enclosed, suite-style seating. Smith’s Ballpark has three levels, the ground level, second floor (concourse area), and the third floor (suite level). An expansion joint between the three structures is along column lines 14 and 30, refer to the as-built documents for column lines. These three areas are structurally isolated and are identifiable in the field due to the presence of a double column and framing line. The ground floor includes light storage areas, office spaces for employees, and locker rooms for the athletes. There are two retention basins on this level at the south and east wings, past the isolation joints. The basin in the east wing is fifteen feet wide by sixty-four feet long, and the one in the south wing is ten feet wide by about eighty-five feet in length. The basins store excess runoff from the stadium until it can be released back to the city. The entirety of the ground floor is slab-on-grade construction with cast-in- place load-bearing walls that have continuous footings, as well as isolated footings for the steel columns near the perimeter of Smith’s Ballpark. Kimley-Horn.com 111 East Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 The main concourse level is comprised of concrete on composite deck supported on non-composite steel framing, elevated precast risers for seating above, and CMU infill walls that enclose various concession stands and other small spaces. The main concourse level is supported by CIP concrete bearing walls below. The main entrance into the stadium is comprised of elevated CIP concrete stairs. A masonry façade is attached to the steel framing inside the concourse area and around the exterior of the stadium. The third floor suite level is comprised of normal weight concrete on composite concrete deck supported by non-composite steel framing, and precast concrete seating risers supported on steel framing. The center structure at this level is enclosed and contains suite-style seating. The south and east wings are open areas for general seating. The roof of Smith’s Ballpark is comprised of an untopped metal deck, bearing on custom steel trusses. The existing structure was designed for the following loads and soil bearing: Kimley-Horn performed a limited structural condition assessment to document the existing framing system of Smith’s Ballpark. The following sections of this report discuss the assessment and subsequent findings. FIELD VISIT Kimley-Horn performed an evaluation of Smith’s Ballpark on October 23, 2024. Christine Herrick, Josh Lampson, and Nathan Grimm performed the assessment of the structures which included a visual survey and limited hammer sounding of select concrete areas. No destructive or intrusive testing was performed as part of our evaluation. Enclosed areas or otherwise inaccessible spaces were visually reviewed where accessible. In general, the condition of the structures was typical for steel structures of similar age and construction type in this region. No immediate life-safety issues were observed. Overall, the structure appeared to be Kimley-Horn.com 111 East Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 performing well and the deficiencies that need to be addressed relate to typical serviceability and maintenance items for outdoor exposure conditions. Observations will be discussed in more detail in the following sections. Documented distress can be viewed in the photos provided in Appendix A. Rating Guidelines are set forth in Appendix B.

See photos 1 and 2 in Appendix A. These cracks may have occurred due to a lack of trim bars at these corners, or inadequate placement of trim bars. Subtle movements of the wall near the corners can contribute to these types of cracks as well, whether it be expansion/contraction due to temperature changes or deflection due to lateral load. Salt Lake City experienced a notable earthquake in 2020, which could have contributed to some of the concrete distress noted throughout this report. Along with frequent cracking at reentrant corners, we also noticed wide horizontal cracks that were independent of the control joints in the tunnels that lead to the field and dugouts. See photo 3 in Appendix A. Cracks like these can occur for a variety of reasons such as repeated heavy loading, improper subgrade preparation, or excessive ground motion during the structure’s life. These cracks are non- structural but should be repaired to prevent them from expanding. CIP Concrete Bearing/Retaining Walls: The cast-in-place concrete walls in Smith’s Ballpark are on the ground floor and run along the corridor below the main concourse area, as well as the tunnels that lead to the field. The walls in the corridor were observed to be in good condition with very limited hairline cracks that do not appear to impact the structural integrity of the walls. See photo 4 in Appendix A for the typical condition of the walls in this area. Efflorescence was observed on select concrete walls near the retention basins on the south and east wings of the structure. It occurs on the upper portion of the wall where there are steel connections to the CIP concrete bearing walls in this area and surface water is able to run through small joints. See photo 5 in Appendix A. The efflorescence appears to only be surface-level and does not seem to affect the capacity of the concrete. The cast-in-place walls along the tunnels were found to have small horizontal and vertical cracks. This occurred in every tunnel, and the horizontal cracks are believed to be flexural cracks caused by the pressure of the earth fill behind the walls. Photos 6 and 7 in Appendix A document the cracks observed in the tunnels. KH recommends these walls be further investigated should they remain in place or be removed for new construction. Infill CMU Walls: The infill CMU walls on the ground floor are located at the outer extents of each wing as well as along the tunnels to the field. Based on our observation, the CMU walls at the outer extents of the structure were in overall good shape with very minimal water damage. See photo 8 in Appendix A. Inside the tunnels, the infill CMU walls have large vertical and stair-step cracks at the corners and edges. See photos 9 and 10 in Appendix A. Both can be a result of differential settlement, active soil pressure behind the wall, or excessive deflection of a member above the wall that distributes unforeseen vertical loads to the wall. DISCUSSION – SECOND FLOOR Elevated Slab: The second-floor diaphragm consists of concrete on composite metal deck. During the site visit, we found the deck to be in overall good condition with occasional hairline cracks that can be expected in concrete of this age. Steel Framing and Connections: The steel framing on the second floor was exposed and observed to be in good condition. All the members were intact, and the connections were observed without any missing hardware (except for one connection in the Women’s Bathroom). We observed corrosion on less Kimley-Horn.com 111 East Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 than ten percent of steel members throughout the structure. Concentrated areas of corrosion were observed at the end of the cantilevered beams where they connect to the precast concrete seating risers. Other concentrated areas of steel corrosion were observed near the expansion joints. See photos 11 through 14 in Appendix A for examples of observed steel corrosion. This corrosion may be due to water leakage and intrusion, since it is concentrated near drainage areas and expansion joints, where water is more likely to collect. None of the observed corrosion appears to impact the structural integrity of the steel framing and connections. Typical maintenance procedures, such as abrasive blasting and repainting are recommended. Precast Concrete Seating Risers: Precast concrete seating risers span between cantilevered steel beams in the elevated levels of Smith’s Ballpark. These precast members were observed to be in good condition. See photos 17 through 20 in Appendix A. Efflorescence was observed and believed to be caused by water damage where the precast risers connect to the steel beams. The precast risers are simply-supported in a single-span condition. This span condition allows water to freely flow between the joints on each end of the risers and deteriorate the concrete below. Steel Stair Framing: Significant water damage was observed on the underside of the steel stair framing at the elevated seating levels, as documented in photos 21 and 22 in Appendix A. We observed that the steel stair framing has rusted to the point where a large amount of paint was peeling away from the steel. This occurs regularly at the exposed stairs on this level in varying degrees of severity. It’s believed that water collects on the steps and slowly seeps through the joints, causing the steel to oxidize. We suspect preventative maintenance procedures, such as abrasive blasting and re-painting, should be enough to mitigate this issue. DISCUSSION – THIRD FLOOR Elevated Slab: Similar to the second floor (concourse level), the third floor (suite level) elevated slab is concrete on composite metal deck framed across steel beams. We observed large cracks forming along the width of the deck on each wing of Smith’s Ballpark. We observed that the cracks typically started from the column flanges on this level and continued across the full length of the deck, with cracks forming parallel to the deck span on one or both sides of the steel beam. See photos 23 through 26 in Appendix A. These cracks are not believed to be a major structural concern. We believe the cracks are due to the negative moment introduced over the support element, and the lack of reinforcing to mitigate cracking over the beam. This beam does not carry any deck load, as it is parallel to the deck span. Negative moment is likely transferred here due to the bay aspect ratio being less than 2:1, allowing the deck to transfer load to the beam framing as a two-way slab. Other medium-sized cracks were found in this area that may be due to expansion and contraction of the concrete in the continuous deck. These cracks may have been prevented by having reinforcing located perpendicular to the framing member. Overall, the third-floor deck was observed to be in good/fair condition. Steel Framing and Connections: The steel framing on the third floor (suite level) was observed to be in better condition than that of the second floor since a majority of these members are in enclosed or covered spaces. The steel columns and trusses supporting the roof deck above were observed with minimal signs of oxidization and chipping paint and seemed to be in good condition. See photo 27 in Appendix A. Untopped Metal Roof Deck: The roof above the third floor (suite level) showed minimal signs of corrosion and was observed to be in good condition. See Photos 28 through 30 in Appendix A. The paint was observed without chips or peeling areas, and the metal deck was observed to be securely fastened to the roof framing. Kimley-Horn.com 111 East Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 REPAIR RECOMMENDATIONS Concrete Slabs: No observed cracks in concrete slabs appear to affect the structural integrity of the members. It is our belief that cracks in the concrete slabs are related to serviceability of the structure and require preventative maintenance to prevent future deterioration. We recommend sealing these cracks with concrete sealant, epoxy, or a patching mortar depending on the desired finish on each level. Concrete Walls: A majority of the distress observed in the concrete walls does not appear to affect their structural integrity. We recommend the horizontal cracks in the concrete walls located in the tunnel areas be further investigated should these walls remain in place. At all other locations, we recommend sealing cracks with concrete sealant, epoxy, or a patching mortar depending on the desired finish on each level. Where applicable, we recommend removing the efflorescence from effected concrete areas using abrasive blasting or a non-destructive chemical solution. Infill CMU Wall: Although the cracks that formed in the infill CMU in the tunnels on the ground floor are believed to be nonstructural, they were observed to be large. We recommend using a sealant, epoxy, or patching mortar to repair these cracks, or choosing to demo and replace with new infill walls. Structural Steel Framing, Steel Stair Framing, and Steel Connections: Based on our site observations, we believe that the deterioration of the steel members and connections does not impact the structural integrity of the members. We recommend preventative maintenance of all steel components and connections. To prevent further deterioration, KH recommends abrasive blasting to remove all rust and applying a new layer of protective paint. Precast Concrete Seating Risers: The precast risers were observed to be in overall good condition. Limited areas were observed that would benefit from preventative maintenance procedures. These areas are typically located where the precast risers come into contact with deteriorating portions of steel beams. We recommend removing the efflorescence from effected areas using abrasive blasting or a non- destructive chemical solution. After removing efflorescence and cleaning the surface, a structural engineer should be reengaged to review connections to verify that significant section lost at connections is not present. After this observation, additional repair may be required. Kimley-Horn.com 111 East Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 STRUCTURAL ASSESSMENT SUMMARY Based on Kimley-Horn’s observation of the site, no immediate structural retrofits are recommended for the building in the existing condition, and Smith’s Ballpark was observed to be in an overall good condition. Kimley-Horn recommends that preventative maintenance activities be carried out by the Owner for prolonged serviceable life of the structure to remain in place.

Very Good – rating denotes no life-safety issues, no immediate losses of strength or performance, including aesthetics, and no short-term changes in performance with regular maintenance and observation. Overall, the structure has minor cosmetic deficiencies, very minor concrete damage, and no leaks or leaching. Good – rating denotes no life-safety issues, no immediate losses of strength or performance, including aesthetics, and no short-term changes in performance with regular maintenance and observation. A structural system is said to be in good condition if there is minor concrete damage, minimal rust, and minor leaks or leaching. An operational system is said to be in good condition if the system is in good working order with minor cleaning or routine maintenance required. Fair – rating denotes no life-safety issues and functional performance, but repairs are needed to maintain the current level of service. There are some aesthetic issues and inconveniences to patrons. Without repairs, the deterioration will continue to accelerate. Fair condition is assigned to the structural system if moderate damage, rust, leaks, or leaching is found in several locations or if severe damage is found in a few locations. Poor – rating denotes obvious problems, even to the casual observer, that without immediate remediation will result in further loss of structural member capacity. This condition can produce noticeable deflections in members, cause loose concrete to spall away, and presents the possibility of an unsafe condition to vehicles and/or pedestrians in the near future. The system may still be functioning at this state, but repair costs will increase rapidly with the amount of time that passes before the item is corrected. The structural system is considered poor if severe damage is found in several locations. A poor assessment is assigned to any operational system that requires replacement. N/A – Not Applicable to this garage. While typically included as a part of our normal condition assessment, this particular category of items was not originally installed in this garage or was not part of the scope of this evaluation Kimley-Horn.com 111 East Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 Definitions: Figure 1: Failing concrete patch Figure 2: Concrete Delamination Figure 3: Concrete spall The photographs provided below are sample representative photographs of each definition taken at other locations. These photographs were not taken at Smith’s Ballpark. 1. Patches – Repairs to concrete that require a filler material, usually grout or repair mortar. Patches may be required due to the following causes: reinforcing steel corrosion, concrete spalling, concrete delaminations, failing grout pockets, or external forces, such as automobile collisions. See Figure 1. 2. Delamination – A delamination of concrete occurs when bleed (excess) water rises in concrete to just below the concrete surface as the concrete is curing. This leaves a thin layer of concrete that separates from the concrete body. Delaminations are detectable by sounding the suspected concrete with a metal object, such as a chain or hammer, and listening for the distinctive dead/hollow sound produced. The sounding instrument will produce a crisp metal ring when sounding over solid concrete. See Figure 2. 3. Spall – A spall is generally a piece of concrete that separates from the main body of the concrete member. Examples include a grout patch that has shrunken away from its pocket or a corner of a member that has broken off and is in the process of falling away or has fallen away already. See Figure 3 Kimley-Horn.com 111 East Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 Figure 4: Fine crack Figure 5: Medium Crack Figure 6: Wide crack Figure 7: Leaking and leaching concrete 4. Cracking – Cracks are qualitatively assigned values of Fine (F), Medium (M) or Wide (W). A fine crack is a hairline crack less than 0.01” thick and can sometimes be very hard to see. A medium crack is in between 0.01” and 1/32” wide and a wide crack is anything greater than 1/32” wide. Cracks are qualitatively rated according to their dominant characteristics. See Figures 4, 5 and 6 for fine, medium and wide width cracks, respectively. 5. Leaking – Leaking is determined by any observable sign of fluid flow through a crack or joint. See Figure 7. 6. Leaching – Leaching occurs when water flows through a crack, thereby dissolving away the components of the concrete, mainly calcium, and depositing it in the form of a whitish film or stalactite on the surface. The whitish film is also called efflorescence. See Figure 7. Kimley-Horn.com 111 East Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 Figure 8: Ponding Water Figure 9: Structural steel rust & scaling 7. Ponding – Ponding is the settling of water in low areas where it has no way to drain. This not only presents a pedestrian safety hazard, especially if it turns into ice, but as water penetrates the concrete the deterioration mechanism is accelerated. See Figure 8. 8. Rust and Scaling – Rust occurs when steel is oxidized. Air, water and chlorides are some agents that typically cause steel to rust. Scaling is a more advanced condition of rust and occurs when rust is deeper than the surface and flakes off in pieces or ‘scales’.

Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 MEMORANDUM To: Marc Asnis From: Brent Crowther, PE; Leslie Morton, PE Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. Date: May 12, 2025 Subject: 1300 South Lane Reduction Evaluation Introduction Salt Lake City is proceeding with the redevelopment of the 13.5-acre Ballpark Site at the corner of West Temple and 1300 South. The plan aims to balance historic preservation with new development, including partial reuse of the stadium while creating a mixed-use area focused on arts, culture, and community gathering spaces. The purpose of this memorandum is to provide information and analysis regarding the possibility of reducing lanes on 1300 South between 300 West to State Street in Salt Lake City. The lane reduction would support the development by providing room for enhanced pedestrian facilities, and improved safety for people crossing I-15. EXISTING FACILITIES 1300 South is an east-west corridor featuring two lanes in each direction of travel, accompanied by a center turning lane. This center lane alternates between a dedicated left turn lane and a two-way left turn lane along the entire study corridor. Following the intersection at 1300 South and State Street, the road transitions into a three-lane facility, consisting of a center turn lane and one travel lane in each direction. 1300 South is classified as an arterial city street in the Salt Lake Transportation Master Plan. The Plan defines arterial city streets as “generally Multi-Lane streets carrying high traffic volumes at relatively high speed limits” and as “commuter streets [that] typically offer controlled access to abutting property”.1 LANE REDUCTION SCENARIO The proposed reduction of 1300 South would create a three-lane road with one lane each direction and a center turn lane alternating between a left turn lane and a two-way turn lane. The lane 1 https://www.slc.gov/transportation/wp- content/uploads/sites/11/2018/12/TransportationMasterPlan_20181113-2.pdf Page 2 kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 reduction would begin east of 300 West (mid-block between 300 W and the TRAX tracks) and end at State Street. The road would widen to two-lanes in each direction at Main Street. TRAFFIC OPERATION S ANALYSIS Turning movement count data were collected on Tuesday, February 11, 2025, for the following study area intersections: • 400 West and 1300 South • 300 West and 1300 South • West Temple and 1300 South • Main Street and 1300 South • State Street and 1300 South Study area intersections were analyzed based on average total delay for signalized and unsignalized intersections as presented in the Transportation Research Board’s Highway Capacity Manual, 7th Edition (HCM 7). Under the unsignalized analysis, the level of service (LOS) for a two-way stop controlled (TWSC) intersection is determined by the computed or measured control delay and is defined for each minor movement. LOS for a two-way stop-controlled intersection is not defined for the intersection. LOS for signalized and unsignalized intersections is defined in Table 1. Table 1 - Level of Service Definition Level of Service Signalized Intersection Average Total Delay (sec/veh) Unsignalized Intersection Average Total Delay (sec/veh) A ≤10 ≤10 B >10 and ≤20 >10 and ≤15 C >20 and ≤35 >15 and ≤25 D >35 and ≤55 >25 and ≤35 E >55 and ≤80 >35 and ≤50 F >80 >50 Definitions sourced from the Highway Capacity Manual, 7th Edition, Transportation Research Board Synchro 12 Analysis and Optimization Software was used to analyze study area intersections for level of service (LOS) and total delay. A LOS of D or better is typically considered acceptable. Scenario: 2025 Existing Operational analysis results for the existing weekday AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes for 2025 are shown in Table 2. Study area intersections all operate at acceptable LOS in each peak hour evaluated in this analysis, apart from the intersection of 1300 South and 300 West, which operates at a LOS F in the PM peak hour. Page 3 kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 Excessive queueing is defined as queues that extend beyond storage lengths or flow into adjacent intersections. The only movement to experience excessive queueing in this scenario is the southbound through/right movement at the intersection of 300 West and 1300 South.

Travel time was recorded from 7 am to 7 pm each weekday. The data shows that the free flow travel time during off-peak hours, is approximately 2 minutes and 18 seconds. During the AM peak hour, the average increases to 3 minutes 15 seconds, and during the PM peak period the average increases to 4 minutes 55 seconds. During the month of April, travel times of over 8 minutes 30 seconds were observed, as illustrated in Figure 1. Based on the data, segment travel time exceeded 5 minutes (as compared to free flow of just over 2 minutes) on 20 of 21 counting days, primarily during the PM peak period. kimley-horn.com 111 E.

Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 Scenario: 2025 Existing Volumes with Lane Reduction Operational analysis results for the weekday AM and PM peak hours in the 2025 existing volumes with lane reduction scenario are shown in Table 3. The lane reduction scenario of 1300 South would reduce the facility to a three-lane roadway with single lanes in each travel direction and a center turn lane that alternates between a dedicated left turn lane and a two-way left turn lane beginning at 300 South and ending at State Street. The roadway would flare out at Main Street and State Street to allow for dedicated right turn lanes.

Several study intersections experience excessive queues in this scenario, with queues exceeding turn lane storage lengths or backing up into adjacent intersections. The following movements experience excess queuing: • Eastbound through at the intersection of 400 West and 1300 South • Eastbound through/right at the intersection of 300 West and 1300 South • Southbound through/right at the intersection of 300 West and 1300 South • Westbound through/right at the intersection of West Temple and 1300 South • Eastbound through at the intersection of Main Street and 1300 South • Eastbound left/through/right at the intersection of State Street and 1300 South Page 6 kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 CONCLUSIONS 1300 South is vital for traffic flow to and from I-15. Reducing it to three lanes would cause congestion and delays. The traffic analysis shows vehicle queues would exceed storage lengths at intersections on 400 West, 300 West, West Temple, Main Street, and State Street in the lane reduction scenario. Critically, queues are expected to extend west of 400 W into the I-15 / 1300 South interchange area, potentially affecting its efficiency. While a lane reduction would offer benefits to the BallPark Next redevelopment by providing wider pedestrian facilities on 1300 South and reducing street crossing distances, it would also lead to decreased efficiency for commuters due to reduced capacity at critical intersections. Considering the vital role of 1300 South as an arterial road connecting to I-15, and the proven negative impacts on traffic operations, it is essential to maintain the existing lane configuration to ensure mobility, safety, and overall effectiveness of the interchange area.

Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 MEMORANDUM To: Marc Asnis Perkins & Will From: Emily Palumbo, P.E. Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. Date: March 3, 2025 Subject: Ballpark Next Development: Creek Daylighting Study Background The Ballpark Next Urban Design project seeks to incorporate the Three Creeks waterway into the proposed development. The purpose of this study is to document the information gathered on the feasibility of partially daylighting the Three Creeks through the proposed development. Data Collection The Three Creeks waterway is the confluence of Parley’s Creek, Emigration Creek, and Red Butte Creek. It is currently conveyed under 1300 South by a 6-foot by 10-foot culvert with a 60-inch diameter overflow pipe. This system discharges into the Jordan River approximately one mile to the west at the Three Creeks Confluence Park. The existing waterway through the project area appears on FEMA FIRM Panel 49035C0282H, the FIRMette for this area is included in the Appendix. This panel shows that the surface area to the north of 1300 South is in a FEMA Zone AH. The waterway and its upstream tributaries are discussed in Flood Insurance Study Number 49035CV001D. This study states the 10-year discharge in the 1300 South system is 825 cubic feet per second (cfs). On January 13, 2025, the Kimley Horn team walked the 1300 South corridor to investigate existing conditions. The team observed a bolted down stormwater vault at the intersection of 1300 South and State Street that is assumed to tie into the 1300 South box culvert, though this could not be verified because the structure could not be opened. Nearby, the team opened an existing stormwater manhole that ties into the 1300 South system and measured it to be approximately eight feet deep. This manhole appears to tie into the existing box culvert and was flowing steadily at the time of the site visit. Google Earth elevation data was used to approximate elevations across the project corridor. At the intersection of 1300 South and State Street, the elevation was observed to be approximately 4,240 feet. The Three Creeks confluence park is where the 1300 South system discharges into the Jordan River and is approximately 7,900 feet west along 1300 South. The road elevation at the park is Page 2 kimley-horn.com 111 E Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 approximately 4,230 feet, and the roadway slope along 1300 South is approximately 0.1%. These features and elevations are annotated in Figure 1 in the Appendix. Stakeholder Coordination As part of the research process, the design team met with Salt Lake City Public Utilities and Salt Lake County Flood Control to discuss the project and gather more information. Key takeaways from these conversations are summarized below. Salt Lake City Public Utilities The design team met with Jason Draper from Salt Lake City Public Utilities on January 28th, 2025. Jason is the chief engineer for SLC Public Utilities and the local floodplain administrator. The team discussed the existing culvert and the surrounding areas. The existing culvert has been observed to convey urban runoff, but fish have also been observed at this location. This is likely due to the proximity to the outfall location into the Jordan River, which can backflow into the 1300 South culvert. The existing culvert is considered to be undersized during high flow events. Additionally, flooding issues are prevalent in the surrounding neighborhoods, mainly Paxton Avenue and Lucy Avenue. The team discussed potential challenges with daylighting the 1300 South culvert through the project site, these include not violating any existing water rights, staying withing existing Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) requirements, and avoiding triggering the FEMA regulatory process. The team also discussed SLC Public Utilities’ riparian buffer zone requirements and determined that these requirements will likely not apply to this project as the existing culvert does not provide any riparian benefits to be protected. Overall, Jason felt positively about the potential of daylighting the Three Creeks culvert. He suggested that water rights and FEMA issues could be avoided if the daylight was added back in to the 1300 South culvert. He also was interested in the possibility of providing some water quantity relief to the existing culvert during high flow events, providing water quality features, and providing educational opportunities to the community. Meeting minutes from this conversation are included in the Appendix. Salt Lake County Flood Control The design team met with Shane Ellis (County Director), Aaron Murphy (Flood Control Permit Review Specialist), and Bob Thompson (Watershed Section Manager) on February 24th, 2025. The team discussed the existing culvert and how it may impact the proposed daylight. It was mentioned that during low flow conditions, the culvert flows as low as one cubic foot per second (cfs), and during high flow events, the culvert is under capacity. The seasonal variability of flow could present challenges to the functionality of the daylight and the surrounding areas. It was also mentioned that the Jordan River is under a TMDL requirement for E. Coli, and so any potential introduction of E. Coli to the waterway will need to be mitigated. Page 3 kimley-horn.com 111 E Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 The team discussed the proposed daylight of the Three Creeks and the associated implications. Firstly, any alteration to the culvert would require a permit through SLC Flood Control. If more than 300 feet of the culvert is altered, a Stream Alteration Permit through the Army Corps of Engineers may be required. If the daylighting system requires any maintenance, SLC Flood Control likely will not have the capacity to provide maintenance. A maintenance agreement is recommended to establish standard procedures and who is responsible. Concept Based on the information gathered from coordinating with stakeholders and doing high level investigations, an initial concept layout has been developed and is shown in Figure 2 in the Appendix. Due to the depth and size of the existing 1300 South system, a partial daylight with custom flow and geometry is more feasible than a full daylight of the system. To achieve this, a 24-inch pipe or similar can tie in to the existing manhole at the 1300 South and State Street intersection and flow under the sidewalk on the north side of 1300 South to the proposed daylight location. This proposed pipe would tie in to the manhole as shallow under the road as possible, and travel at a slope up to 0.5% to minimize the depth of the discharge location relative to the ground surface. The proposed pipe would discharge into a proposed daylight channel. This channel will convey flow across the southern boundary of the project for 300 feet or less and will re-enter the 1300 South system just east of West Temple Street. The channel can vary in geometry, material, and other parameters. Figure 3 below shows a sample daylight channel cross section, assuming a manning’s roughness coefficient of 0.040 to represent a vegetated channel, three-to-one side slopes, 1.5 feet of water depth, and a five-foot channel bottom. Figure 3: Sample Channel Cross Section This proposed concept plan would necessitate the design of the diversion structure to remove flow from the existing 1300 South culvert and a control structure at the downstream end of the channel. As the existing culvert flows full during some periods of the year, this diversion system must be designed Page 4 kimley-horn.com 111 E Broadway Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385 212 3176 with the ability to be sealed off from the 1300 South system so that the new infrastructure does not flood during high flow events. Along with the diversion system, the proposed pipe and channel will need to be designed further than what is presented in this initial study. Conclusion It is feasible to incorporate a partial daylight of the Three Creeks waterway in the Ballpark Next Development. This daylight will include the design and installation of a diversion structure to remove water from the existing 1300 South system at the intersection with State Street, a diversion pipe along 1300 South to the project site, the daylight channel, and a control structure to re-enter the 1300 South system. There are a number of challenges to this partial daylight concept that may be encountered during design, including diverting water from the 1300 South system during high flow events, complying with local water rights, ensuring site discharge meets existing TMDL requirements, and triggering any FEMA processes.

Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 MEMORANDUM To: Marc Asnis From: Brent Crowther, PE; Leslie Morton, PE Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. Date: March 13, 2025 Subject: Transportation and Civil Evaluation Introduction Salt Lake City is moving forward with the redevelopment of the 13.5-acre Ballpark Site at the corner of West Temple and 1300 South. The plan will balance historic preservation with new development, incorporating partial reuse of the stadium while creating a vibrant, mixed-use destination centered on arts, culture, and community gathering spaces. The purpose of this memorandum is to provide information and analysis in fulfillment of Kimley-Horn scope of work Task 4.3, Transportation and Civil Evaluation, which reads: Kimley Horn will analyze and test the test fit on the potential traffic implications. Kimley Horn will recommend improvements/strategies to enhance multimodal mobility and connectivity. Recommendations will consider: • Trip generation • Parking requirements • Mode shift goals • Transit connectivity • Multi-modal connectivity, infrastructure and recommendations • Vehicle access • Required on-site utility concepts Scenario 2 – Partial Adaptive Reuse Scenario 2, Partial Adaptive Resue, was identified as the preferred scenario. The land use concept for Scenario 2 is described as: Scenario 2’s focal point is the long central flexible green space, being a draw for night markets, concerns, little league, and picnics, all the way to afternoon reading with a view of the mountains. The western portion of the stadium has been preserved and revitalized to bring people together through dynamic activations and social engagements. Page 2 kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 Land Use Assessment TRIP GENERATION The development area encompasses the existing ballpark and the existing parking lot north of the ballpark. Scenario 2 concept layout is illustrated in Figure 1. Proposed land uses in Scenario 2 include residential, hospitality, retail, commercial, and public facilities (e.g., library) . Scenario 2 land uses were used to estimate the number of vehicle trips that would be generated by the development. Scenario 2 is divided into two blocks: a north block, and a south block. The north block extends from 1300 South to Paxton Avenue. The south block extends from 1300 South to 1400 South. Land uses for each block are listed in Table 1.

As documented in the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition, the restaurant and retail land uses do not typically generate all new traffic on the roadway system. The total traffic generation is a combination of pass-by trips, or traffic drawn directly from the already passing traffic flow on adjacent streets, and primary trips, which represent new traffic drawn to the development. Additionally, some internal trips between the land uses are expected. Trip generation estimates remove pass-by trips and internal trips from the total new trips generated by the development to provide a more accurate trip assignment to the roadway network. A transit reduction was also applied to the trip generation as the development is located less than a quarter mile from the TRAX Ballpark Station. Data for the transit reduction was estimated using the Replica mode split application. The trip generation characteristics of the site are summarized in Table 2. Scenario 2 will generate an estimated 6,006 daily external new trips, with 310 total external new trips occurring in the AM peak hour and 486 total external new trips occurring in the PM peak hour.

The parking evaluation found that there is sufficient parking in both zones to satisfy the developments parking needs for typical day-to-day conditions. Parking Supply Table 3 presents the number of parking spaces by zone. Scenario 2 proposes 964 spaces between the north and south project areas. Parking needs for the fire station were disregarded in this analysis as their parking would not be shared with the rest of the development. Page 5 kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 Table 3 - 1300 South Ballpark Project Parking Inventory Summary Block Description Sub Area Parking Stalls 1 Paxton Avenue to 1300 South Residential Spaces 100 Parking Garage North 405 2 1300 South to 1400 South Parking Garage South 370 Residential Spaces 89 Total 964 Parking Requirements Section 21A.44.040 of the Salt Lake City Code of Ordinances establishes minimum requirements for off-street parking. As this development falls under the transit context, there are no minimum parking requirements. Shared Parking Analysis Methodology The shared parking analysis utilized the Urban Land Institute (ULI) Shared Parking Calculation Model, which calculates shared parking demand based on information and methodology in ULI’s reference publication Shared Parking, 3rd Edition. This reference estimates shared parking based on land use, as well as collected data on parking fluctuation based on month and time of day for each land use. The shared parking analysis considered two scenarios: 1) Typical conditions with no event and 2) Event conditions. Typical Conditions (No Event) Shared Parking Analysis Results The ULI Shared Parking model provides monthly and hourly peak parking demand for both weekday and weekend. Figure 2 presents the monthly weekday parking demand for the AM, PM, and evening peak periods for typical conditions. Figure 3 presents the monthly weekend parking demand during the AM, PM, and evening peak periods for typical conditions. The average weekday and weekend parking demand for the typical conditions is 711 and 661, respectively. The maximum parking demand for typical conditions occurs during the May peak, with a weekday and weekend demand of 729 and 677, respectively. Both average and peak demands can be accommodated by the proposed 964 spaces. Commented [MA3]: Does the shared parking analysis take into consideration an event/concert? If its a +/- 6,000 person capacity - how would the shared parking accommodate? Commented [BC4R3]: Added a new section for event traffic. Note that event traffic will exceed parking supply. Emphasis on transit, as well as nearby on- street parking. Page 6 kimley-horn.com 111 E.

During the weekday, higher parking demand occurs between 12:00 PM and 7;00 PM where demand related to office and commercial uses are in operation. Similarly, during the weekend, higher parking demand occurs between 12:00 PM and 8:00 PM. Outside these hours, the majority of parking demand is associated with the residential uses. 0 200 400 600 800 1,000 1,200 Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Lat Dec Pa r k i n g S t a l l s Month Weekday Parking Supply 0 200 400 600 800 1,000 1,200 Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Lat Dec Pa r k i n g S t a l l s Month Weekend Parking Supply Page 7 kimley-horn.com 111 E.

There is a paid parking lot to the west of the site with approximately 140 parking spaces, but no street parking within a ¼ mile radius of the project site. The current ballpark management encourages attendees to use the TRAX system to get to the venue, with the nearest station being less than ¼ mile away. Attendees will rely on nearby on-street parking to match the parking demand in both the weekday and weekend time periods, as well as an additional emphasis on utilization of transit (TRAX).

Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 Study area intersections were analyzed based on average total delay for signalized and unsignalized intersections as presented in the Transportation Research Board’s Highway Capacity Manual, 7th Edition (HCM 7). Under the unsignalized analysis, the level of service (LOS) for a two-way stop controlled (TWSC) intersection is determined by the computed or measured control delay and is defined for each minor movement. LOS for a two-way stop-controlled intersection is not defined for the intersection. LOS for signalized and unsignalized intersections is defined in Table 6. Table 6 - Level of Service Definition Level of Service Signalized Intersection Average Total Delay (sec/veh) Unsignalized Intersection Average Total Delay (sec/veh) A ≤10 ≤10 B >10 and ≤20 >10 and ≤15 C >20 and ≤35 >15 and ≤25 D >35 and ≤55 >25 and ≤35 E >55 and ≤80 >35 and ≤50 F >80 >50 Definitions sourced from the Highway Capacity Manual, 7th Edition, Transportation Research Board Synchro 12 Analysis and Optimization Software was used to analyze study area intersections for level of service (LOS) and total delay.

The project is within the Ballpark Station Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) zone, benefiting from direct access to TRAX light rail service (Red, Blue, and Green lines) and multiple bus routes, including Route 200 on State Street and Route 9 on 300 West/1300 South. A key transportation objective of this redevelopment is to reduce single-occupancy vehicle trips and promote multimodal transportation for residents, visitors, and employees. To achieve this, improvements should focus on transit service enhancements, pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, micromobility options, and efficient curbside management for rideshare and carshare users. Page 13 kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 Enhance Public Transit Access Reducing single-occupancy vehicle trips requires good public transit options, including increased service frequency, reliability, and connectivity. The Ballpark area already benefits from TRAX service running every 7-10 minutes during peak hours. Coordination with Utah Transit Authority (UTA) should continue especially in relation to future special events at the site. Potential strategies to improve transit access include: • Improved transit stops: ensuring easy and accessible station access, adding shelters and other small-scale station amenities (e.g., real-time arrival information) to existing and future station or integrating future transit stations along 1300 South with the proposed development, and good street lighting. • On-demand service area expansion: expand UTA’s on-demand service area to include the development site to better connect Westside residents to the neighborhood. • Fare integration: encourage fare program partnerships between UTA and development partners to offer free or reduced transit passes to residents and employees. Expand Active Transportation Infrastructure To further encourage non-motorized travel, the Scenario 2 will prioritize pedestrian and bicycle connectivity. Enhancing infrastructure along key corridors in the neighborhood will improve safety, accessibility, and overall usability. Key recommendations include: • Wide sidewalks and shared-use paths: Implement pedestrian-friendly design features to support pedestrian traffic and accommodate strollers, wheelchairs, and other users. • Safe bicycle routes: While 1300 South is currently not identified to have dedicated bike lanes, Salt Lake City is planning to include new neighborhood byways on Kelsey and Paxton Avenues which will also include improved crossings at major intersections. Additionally, Salt Lake City has long-term plans to study bicycle infrastructure on 1300 South. • Secure bike parking: Installing bike racks and lockers at key locations, including near transit stations, commercial areas, and residential buildings, will support cycling as a viable option. Micromobility & Car/Ridesharing Another strategy to encourage the switch from single occupancy vehicle trips to active uses can be achieved by increasing the availability of bikeshare programs and electric scooters as well as expanding car sharing programs in the area. Micromobility and shared transportation services provide convenient alternatives to private vehicle use, particularly for short trips. GREENbike, a local non-profit agency, operates a bikeshare program in Salt Lake City and Ogden. Most docking stations are located in downtown Salt Lake City and there is no docking station close to the site. The city also currently contracts with Spin and Lime to offer e-scooters and both companies have vehicles available in the Ballpark neighborhood. Key recommendations for improved micro mobility: Page 14 kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 • Bikeshare expansion: Adding docking stations near the redevelopment site would increase the viability of bike share programs as a mode of transportation. • E-scooter parking and management: Establishing dedicated e-scooter parking areas can streamline operations and mitigate issues related to vehicles obstructing the sidewalk. Ridesharing has become a popular choice of transportation for individuals without a personal vehicle and those not wanting to drive and navigate traffic congestion and parking at event sites. Meanwhile, carsharing programs offer short-term vehicle access as an alternative to owning a personal vehicle. These programs can be commercial or peer-to-peer. Key recommendations related to ride/carsharing: • Rideshare zones: The concept design for 1300 South includes a central pick-up/drop-off area. Additional rideshare zones on West Temple and Main Street will be considered to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion during peak hours. Transit Connectivity The Ballpark area benefits from existing high-frequency transit service, including TRAX and bus routes. Ensuring safe and convenient connections to these services is critical for meeting the project’s modal shift goals and encouraging more transit use. Existing transit services: • TRAX light rail: The Ballpark Station serves the Red, Blue, and Green lines, providing direct access to the airport, downtown Salt Lake City, and the University of Utah, as well as regional destinations. • Bus routes: o Route 200 (State Street) runs on 15-minute frequency and connects transit users between the North Temple FrontRunner Station to the Murray Central FrontRunner Station. o Route 9 (900 South/300 West) operates on 15-minute frequency and provides service between the University of Utah and the Orange Street bus terminus just west of Redwood Road. Based on UTA’s 5-year strategic plan and the region’s long-range transportation plan future service expansion will further enhance mobility in the Ballpark neighborhood. Future service expansions include: • UTA 5-year Strategic Service Plan (by 2029) o Route 17: Expanded service between Highberry Center in West Valley City and the University of Utah, passing the Ballpark on 1300 South and Main Street before turning onto 1700 South. This route is planned to operate on regular 15-30-minute service and will be adjusted in 2028. • Long-Range Transportation Plan: Page 15 kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 o Route 3 Core Service (300 West): High-frequency (10-minute) bus service between FrontRunner North Temple Station and Central Pointe TRAX Station (Phase 1: 2023- 2032) o State Street BRT: Upgraded bus rapid transit (BRT) service replacing Route 200 (Phase 2: 2033-2042) o TRAX Red Line Extension: Extending TRAX service via the American Spur on 400 West, connecting to 400 South at 400 West (Phase 2: 2033-2042). Multi-modal Connectivity The site benefits from its proximity to multiple transit services and an existing urban fabric that supports multimodal access. Ensuring seamless connections between transportation modes—such as safe and convenient first/last-mile access to transit, improved pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, and expanded micromobility options—will be critical to the project’s success. Currently, the pedestrian experience from the Ballpark TRAX Station to the development site is poor. Pedestrians must walk on a 10-foot-wide attached sidewalk along 1300 South without a buffer, making it an unpleasant and potentially unsafe experience due to the road’s traffic volumes and vehicle speeds. Enhancing pedestrian-focused urban design elements, such as wider sidewalks, landscaping buffers, and improved crossings, can significantly improve the walking experience for residents and visitors. A concept exhibit is included as Figure 8. Key improvements for the area’s multimodal connectivity should include: • New pedestrian crossing: The Ballpark Station Area Plan recommends adding pedestrian crossings on both sides of the TRAX tracks to improve station access, connectivity, and safety. • Active transportation corridors: streetscape enhancements along Jefferson Street and Albermarle Avenue, including a new midblock crossing at Albermarle Avenue and West Temple will provide safer and more direct access to the site. These recommendations are also outlined in the Ballpark Station Area Plan. • Traffic calming: Implementing pedestrian-friendly design elements such as raised intersections at Richard Street, curb extensions at Main Street, and improved lighting along the whole corridor can enhance walkability and overall site accessibility. While driving may be preferred by some residents and visitors, the surrounding context and proposed site design encourages active transportation as the primary way to access the site. Parking will be accommodated in centralized parking garages (buildings B and G in Figure 1) and limited on-street parking will remain available along West Temple and Main Street. Vehicle Access The development’s vehicle access strategy balances the need for efficient traffic flow with a pedestrian-friendly urban environment. The site’s design minimizes on-site vehicle-pedestrian conflicts while maintaining convenient access for residents, employees, visitors, and emergency services. Page 16 kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 Northern Site Access (north of 1300 South) The north site’s primary vehicle access will be from West Temple and Paxton Avenue. Richard Street will serve as an access point for the shared parking in building B. However, vehicle use on Richard Street is limited for west-bound traffic only and should be limited access the shared parking structure to maintain a pedestrian-oriented environment. The intersection of 1300 South and Richards Street will incorporate a raised intersection design, creating a seamless pedestrian experience while still allowing vehicle access. The current pedestrian hybrid beacon (PHB) should be upgraded to a full pedestrian signal. Drivers should anticipate significant pedestrian activity in this area. Southern Site Access (south of 1300 South) • Main Street will serve as the primary vehicle access point for the southern portion of the development, including the shared parking garage (building G). • Aligning with the Ballpark Station Area Plan, West Temple is planned as a “Festival Street,” meaning vehicle access will be reduced and highlight managed during events to prioritize pedestrians and public gatherings. • 1300 South will have no direct vehicle access points into the development, helping maintain a pedestrian-priority environment. • Internal Promenade Streets will be designed to accommodate emergency vehicles but will otherwise function as pedestrian-oriented spaces. • Richards Street (south of the existing ballpark) will not extend into the development site, reinforcing a pedestrian-priority environment. By managing vehicle access and prioritizing active and multimodal transportation options, the development will support a welcoming, walkable, and transit-oriented environment. Transportation Conclusion The Ballpark NEXT redevelopment presents a unique opportunity to transform the area into a vibrant, multimodal urban district that priorities sustainable transportation options while maintaining necessary vehicle access. By implementing strategies to reduce single-occupant vehicle trips, enhance public transit access, expand active transportation infrastructure, and improve multimodal connectivity, the project can create a welcoming, accessible, and pedestrian-friendly environment. kimley-horn.com 111 E.

Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 CIVIL EVALUATION Culinary Water The existing stadium building is currently connected to the SLC water system via a service line. The portion of the stadium to remain will keep this connection. Three new 8” connections will be established to the existing water main along West Temple and a second connection could be established in Main Street to provide additional looping. The existing main lines in West Temple and Main Street are 6-inch cast iron pipes, that will need to be upsized to a minimum 12-inch water line along the project frontage per Salt Lake City requirements. Fire Water The existing stadium and new buildings will require the installation of a new fire service line connected to a Salt Lake City distribution mainline. Three new 12” connections will be established along West Temple and a second connection could be established in Main Street to provide additional looping. Sanitary Sewer There are existing sewer service laterals extending into the property from the 36-inch sewer main running under West Temple. The exact size, location and condition of the laterals is unknown at this time. The portion of the stadium to remain could maintain its existing connection upon review of the existing condition. Three new 8” sewer connections will be established along West Temple to service the new buildings. If any of the new buildings are to have commercial kitchens, a grease interceptor will be needed. Grease interceptors should be located in service areas or areas with little public interaction due to the potential odor. Additionally, to mitigate odor concerns, the grease interceptor should be vented back through the building. Salt Lake City has not indicated any issues with sewer capacity in this area. The on-site sanitary sewer lines must adhere to the Utah State Administrative Code for minimum slopes based on pipe diameter. Storm Water According to the FEMA Firm Panel 49035C0282H effective August 2, 2012, the north parking lot portion of the site is located in a Zone X or “Area of Minimal Flood Hazard”. The portion of the site south of 1300 South is not located in any FEMA flood hazards. The existing site storm drainage is divided into two subbasins: the north parking lot parcel and the south stadium parcel. North Parcel: The existing storm drain network under the north parking lot consists of 15-inch reinforced concrete pipe and captures water throughout a series of catch basins, draining underground to the north and Page 19 kimley-horn.com 111 E. Broadway, Suite 600, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 385-212-3176 connecting to a line in West Temple Street that flows to the north. It does not appear that there is any underground or surface stormwater detention to collect and treat the stormwater runoff. The proposed drainage system will be a significant enhancement to the existing condition. The proposed system is anticipated to consist of capturing of stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces and building roof areas and routing to a series of bioswales to detain and treat the water before discharging into the West Temple line. These bioswales can be implemented into the open space and creek partial daylighting design as habitat enhancements. Based on Salt Lake City requirements of detaining the 100-year, 3-hour storm event, the north parcel will need to detain approximately 10,000 cubic feet of storage. South Parcel: The existing storm drain network drains into the line in West Temple, then heads west in 1300 South. There are two existing concrete vaults that are used for stormwater detention for the ballpark. One of these vaults can be preserved and used as part of the proposed system. The other vault will be demolished. The proposed drainage system will capture stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces and building roof areas and route through a series of bioswales to detail and treat the water before discharging into the roadway system. The existing concrete vault can also provide some of the required stormwater detention. Based on Salt Lake City requirements, the south parcel will need to detain approximately 25,000 cubic feet of storage. From the outset, storm water management solutions and low impact development (LID) techniques should be seamlessly integrated into the overall site design. Implementing LID strategies, such as flow-through islands in parking lots, bioswales, and underground galleries, will be beneficial. These measures can significantly influence the layout, grading, and landscaping of the site, ensuring effective storm water management while maintaining the functionality and aesthetics of the site. Natural Gas Natural gas service is supplied by Enbridge Energy, with existing gas mains running in 1300 South and West Temple. The proposed gas demand is unknown at this time and could vary significantly depending on the type of heating system used for the proposed buildings.

Market Feasibility Analysis a)Local Demographic, Socioeconomic & Existing Facility Market Analysis: Analyze baseline data related to the relevant events facility market area. This includes strengths and weaknesses of current local events facilities, analysis of drivetime zone populations, and comparable projects. b)Market Demand Analysis: Develop a comprehensive profile of the strengths and weaknesses of the area around Smith’s Ballpark. c)Stakeholder and Event Organizer/Promotor Interviews: Gain an understanding of where the market is regarding concerts and events in addition to community needs. 4 DRAFT – Subject to Change STUDY METHODOLOGY 5 Market Demand Assessment Demographic & Socioeconomic Analysis Comparable Case Studies Comparable Outdoor Concert Venues Stakeholder Interviews Local Event Organizer Interviews Concert Promoter Interviews Secondary Market Research Primary Market Research Research Findings & Venue Options SPORTS & EVENT VENUE MARKET DEMAND ANALYSIS DRAFT – Subject to Change PROJECT UNDERSTANDING Victus Advisors recognizes that the Client seeks a new development at the Smith’s Ballpark site that is to serve as a community hub and destination anchor. The Salt Lake City Bee’s played at Smith’s for 30 years, ending an era in which residents in the area and specifically Council District 5 could gather for a ballgame. Our understanding is that this venue could either be an adaptive reuse of the existing Ballpark facility or a new community gathering and event space. 6 DRAFT – Subject to Change PROJECT SITE Source: Esri The Smith’s Ballpark site shown above. 7 DRAFT – Subject to Change 2. DEMOGRAPHIC & SOCIOECONOMIC ANALYSIS 8 Draft – Subject to Change TCH SALT LAKE CITY The City of Salt Lake (or the “City”) has a population of 205,841. Source: Esri 9 DRAFT – Subject to Change SALT LAKE MSA Metro. Statistical Areas •MSA’s are defined by the U.S. Office of Management & Budget. •They are defined by adjacent counties with a high degree of social/economic integration and an urban core of 50,000 people or more. Atlanta MSA •The Salt Lake City MSA (“Salt Lake MSA” for the remainder of the report) is comprised of 2 counties in Utah, Salt Lake and Tooele. •The Salt Lake MSA has a population of more than 1,300,000 people, approximately 16% of which live in Salt Lake City. Source: Esri 10 DRAFT – Subject to Change DRIVE-TIME MARKET PROFILE: 5-MINUTES Source: Esri (1) Adjusted for cost of living according to Sperling Within a 5-minute drive-time of Smith’s Ballpark, the adjusted median household income is significantly lower than the city of Salt Lake and the Salt Lake MSA. Average annual spend on entertainment and recreation around $3,200 is also on the lower end. Average median age below 35 signifies a younger population, in addition to almost 40% of households having children. 11 DRAFT – Subject to Change POPULATION DISTRIBUTION Total Population by Block Groups Source: Esri Population density within 5 minutes from Smith’s Ballpark is higher east of the stadium in addition to one block north, which is closer to downtown. 12 DRAFT – Subject to Change Median Age by Block Groups AGE DISTRIBUTION 13 Source: Esri Median age within 5 minutes from Smith’s Ballpark is lowest in the southwest direction. DRAFT – Subject to Change INCOME DISTRIBUTION 14 Median Household Income by Block Groups Source: Esri Median Household Income within 5 minutes from Smith’s Ballpark is significantly higher to the east of the site, in addition to some blocks north and west. DRAFT – Subject to Change PRIMARY AND SECONDARY DRIVE-TIME ZONES 15 Based upon Victus Advisors’ experience, primary attendance for a potential concert venue (especially for weekday events) is typically drawn from within a 30-minute drive radius. The population within a 30-minute drive- time radius of Smith’s Ballpark is 1,536,850. The population within a 60-minute drive- time radius of Smith’s Ballpark is 2,804,700. Smith’s Ballpark is accessible from the highly trafficked I-15. Source: Esri DRAFT – Subject to Change KEY TAKEAWAYS & CONCLUSION: DEMOGRAPHIC & SOCIOECONOMIC ANALYSIS 16 •Population Growth: Projected in the next 5 years, the population around 5 minutes from Smith’s Ballpark is expected to grow at 1.8%. •Age: The 5-minute area around Smith’s Ballpark median age is lower than the national average. A lower median age tends to represent a larger presence of working-age populations, which can be a positive indicator for a more active community. •Household Income: After adjustments for cost of living, the median household income within 5 minutes of Smith’s Ballpark is lower than both Salt Lake City and the Salt Lake MSA. CONCLUSION The 5-minute area around Smith’s Ballpark is a young and growing population that could benefit from a redeveloped ballpark with features and amenities for young families.

SALT LAKE OUTDOOR CONCERT VENUE ANALYSIS 17 DRAFT – Subject to Change OVERVIEW 18 This section presents a summary of key trends in the concert industry in order to provide a perspective from which to assess operational impacts of the possible amphitheater at Smith’s Ballpark. The review of industry trends is presented as follows: •Overview of Live Concert Economics •Talent Costs •Consolidation of Promoters DRAFT – Subject to Change OVERVIEW OF LIVE CONCERT ECONOMICS 19 The economics of the concert industry have changed substantially over the past several years, as acts have demanded higher compensation or guarantees, resulting in increased ticket prices. The upward trend in ticket prices has increased gross ticket sales revenue to record levels, but it has also negatively impacted attendance at concert events over the past several years. The result of these trends has produced lower profit margins for concert promoters and live music venues. Concert ticket revenue is generally allocated between the touring act, show expenses, and the promoter. While each deal is unique and can vary considerably from market to market, concert ticket revenue is generally allocated as follows: approximately 60 to 70 percent of the ticket price is paid to the performer as their guarantee; approximately 20 percent pays for show expenses including staffing, utilities, facility rent and other such costs; and approximately 10 to 20 percent is retained by the promoter. The facility owner/operator typically receives fixed rent from the promoter for use of the venue, and potentially a small share of ticket sales revenues if they help co-promote the event. It should be noted that the venue operator also generates other revenue streams from premium seating, box office fees and ticket sales rebates, food and beverage sales, venue advertising/sponsorships, and parking. DRAFT – Subject to Change The concert industry has experienced a significant consolidation of promoters in recent years, which has had a significant impact on the ability of live entertainment venues to attract marquee events without a direct affiliation with a major promoter. The following table summarizes the top global concert promoters in terms of percentage of ticket sales, and it is also worthy to note that: •Live Nation and AEG own, operate, and/or have booking rights for such a significant number of live entertainment venues in the United States that they can create block-booking arrangements, sometimes exclusive, with the top talent. CONSOLIDATION OF PROMOTERS 20 TOP GLOBAL PROMOTERS: % OF TICKET SALES Source: Pollstar DRAFT – Subject to Change As shown on the previous page, Live Nation (and its subsidiaries) was responsible for 39% tickets sold worldwide in 2021, while AEG (and its subsidiaries) was responsible for 12% of tickets sold. Combined, Live Nation and AEG sold 51% of all concert tickets across the globe in 2021. Today, Live Nation owns, operates, has booking rights and/or has an equity investment in over 200 concert venues, and over 30 are amphitheaters. They produce over 40,000 concerts for 4,000 artists annually around the world. Their relationships/ownership positions with a significant number of live entertainment venues have given them the opportunity to create block-booking arrangements with facilities across North America and beyond. Traditionally, live entertainment venues would have multiple booking agents and promoters bringing acts into their market. However, over the last several years, organizations such as Live Nation have taken control of more acts and have sought exclusive rights to book a particular venue, altering the former “free market” relationships among artists, promoters, and venues. That said, the trend toward exclusivity seems to be waning, as these entities have become more willing to work with each other to maximize revenues. For example, a concert act controlled by Live Nation may be more likely than in years past to play a venue operated by AEG, if both entities feel there is an opportunity for a mutually beneficial agreement. CONSOLIDATION OF PROMOTERS (CONT.) 21 DRAFT – Subject to Change KEY TAKEAWAYS & CONCLUSION: SLC OUTDOOR CONCERT VENUE ANALYSIS 22 •Live Concert Economics: The economics of the concert industry have changed substantially over the past several years, as acts have demanded higher compensation or guarantees, resulting in increased ticket prices. The upward trend in ticket prices has increased gross ticket sales revenue to record levels, but it has also negatively impacted attendance at concert events over the past several years. The result of these trends has produced lower profit margins for concert promoters and live music venues. •Consolidation of Promoters: Live Nation and AEG own, operate, and/or have booking rights for such a significant number of live entertainment venues in the United States that they can create block - booking arrangements, sometimes exclusive, with the top talent. CONCLUSION An outdoor concert venue could be a potential option for a redeveloped Smith’s Ballpark. That said, concert venues are seeing lower profit margins. Furthermore, it is imperative that that a concert venue be operated and/or booked by a firm like Live Nation or AEG to ensure maximize usage. DRAFT – Subject to Change 4.

STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS 49 DRAFT – Subject to Change 50 The identified local stakeholders with valuable insight on the Smith’s Ballpark site and scheduled a series of interviews. The goal of these interviews was to gather feedback from key local groups and community leaders regarding the market potential for a potential new development to replace the Salt Lake Bees vacancy. The set of topics and questions included perceptions of Salt Lake County nodes near the stadium, different types of possible usage, and other feedback concerning the potential new developments. INTERVIEWS - Victus Advisors conducted interviews with representatives from the following seven (7) local groups and organizations: •Maven District •Salt Lake City Arts Council •Salt Lake City Department of Economic Development •Salt Lake City Downtown Alliance •Salt Lake City Public Lands •Salt Lake City Redevelopment Agency •Visit Salt Lake Key highlights of these interviews are summarized by topic on the following pages. The highlights presented tend to focus on the topics and sentiments that were raised by multiples interviewees. OVERVIEW DRAFT – Subject to Change INTERVIEW SUMMARY 51 PERCEPTIONS OF SMITH’S BALLPARK & COMMUNITY NEED •In general, interviewees felt that there is a need for the development to be a major part of the community's identity. One interviewee stated that local business development is crucial if the space incudes a business sector. Multiple stakeholders believe in the primary activation being public space, one emphasizing how it should be easily programmable. Consensus is that the Bee’s are leaving a void in the community that needs to be filled with something community focused and not what’s best financially. •Regarding the idea of an outdoor concert venue, some stakeholders did say that depending on capacity, it could fill a void in the performance industry. While practical, a venue like this might not be the best idea because the surrounding area of the ballpark is mainly single-family homes. Concerns about loud noise continuing into late hours was mentioned by multiple interviewees. •Another interviewee expressed that to keep any sort of public/open space safe, bright lighting in addition to clear sight lines are very important. Other parks have been susceptible to homeless staying there because of a lack of effort to account for these problems. There is a concern that a new open/green space could amplify those issues DRAFT – Subject to Change INTERVIEW SUMMARY (CONT.) 52 POTENTIAL PROGRAMMING & ACTIVITY •Interviewees had mixed opinions regarding what should take the place of the Salt Lake Bee’s. While these views varied when referencing secondary uses, most of the ideas for the venue included a community focus. Some stated they wanted a possibility for larger, commercial operations while others opposed that idea, believing that would take away from the space being something the local residents could claim as their own. •One interviewee stressed the importance of attempting to keep the venue revolved around sports because of the history, whether that be a community park or something more structured with an indoor gym where organized leagues can play. •One stakeholder wants the venue to be a possible place to host smaller, community events like flea markets/farmers markets. Many of these smaller groups have had trouble finding places to operate downtown, so the ballpark site could provide a place to go. •Another stakeholder wants to turn the venue into a women’s sports and concert venue. The field would act as the epicenter for development around it, including possible festival streets, local art, a parking lot with programmable green space on top, and more. The stakeholder stated, “the community wants to feel something”, and local activation is the best way to do that. DRAFT – Subject to Change INTERVIEW SUMMARY (CONT.) 53 CONCLUSIONS •All interviewees were supportive of ideas that appeal to people within Salt Lake City in addition to others outside of the area to drive growth in a location that many people may not know much about, including those who live within closer proximity. •The TRAX station within walking distance of the ballpark is very important in ensuring people have free/affordable transportation. Easy access at zero to low cost will push attendance numbers higher and create more foot traffic for the entire area around the site. •The main goal of the ballpark project isn’t to just create something special at the site. While that is part of the process, positive overall economic impact in the areas within close proximity to the stadium is another major part of this development and a key indicator of how successful it will be. DRAFT – Subject to Change KEY TAKEAWAYS & CONCLUSION: STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS 54 •Perceptions of Smith’s Ballpark & Community Need: Consensus is that the Bee’s are leaving a void in the community that needs to be filled with something community focused and not what’s best financially. •Concert Venue Possibility: Regarding the idea of an outdoor concert venue, some stakeholders did say that depending on capacity, it could fill a void in the performance industry. While practical, a venue like this might not be the best idea because the surrounding area of the ballpark is mainly single-family homes. Concerns about loud noise continuing into late hours was mentioned by multiple interviewees. •Potential Programming & Activity: Interviewees had mixed opinions regarding what should take the place of the Salt Lake Bee’s. While these views varied when referencing secondary uses, most of the ideas for the venue included a community focus. Some stated they wanted a possibility for larger, commercial operations while others opposed that idea, believing that would take away from the space being something the local residents could claim as their own. CONCLUSION The community surrounding Smith’s Ballpark and other Salt Lake City stakeholders have various opinions and feedback regarding the future of the site. It is unlikely that the ultimate decision will be universally ideal for all of the stakeholders we interviewed. DRAFT – Subject to Change 6. LOCAL EVENT ORGANIZER & CONCERT PROMOTER INTERVIEWS 55 DRAFT – Subject to Change OVERVIEW 56 This section presents a summary of the interviews held by Victus with potential groups about their interest and recommendations regarding the redevelopment of Smith’s Ballpark. The review of the interviews is as followed: •Local Event Organizers •Concert Promoters DRAFT – Subject to Change 6. LOCAL EVENT ORGANIZER & CONCERT PROMOTER INTERVIEWS A. LOCAL EVENT ORGANIZERS 57 DRAFT – Subject to Change LOCAL EVENT ORGANIZER FEEDBACK 58 Victus spoke with the following five (5) local event organizers regarding the feasibility of a potential new event space at a redeveloped Smith’s Ballpark. •Craft Lake City •Salt Lake City Weekly •Sports Marketing Collective •Urban Flea Market SLC •Utah Arts Alliance Key highlights from their feedback are presented in the remainder of this section. PERCEPTIONS OF CURRENT EVENT VENUES IN THE SALT LAKE MARKET •Local event organizers had similar feedback regarding existing venues for their events. Multiple interviewees stated that they’ve gotten displaced from downtown venues like the Gallivan Center due to financial reasons. Another group noted that the Fair Park and Pioneer Park have not been friendly toward their events. DRAFT – Subject to Change 59 CRAFT LAKE CITY •Craft Lake City is a charitable organization that educates and inspires Utah’s arts community through science, technology, and art. •The organizer mentioned that they used to use the Gallivan Center for the better part of a decade but moved to the Fairgrounds due to pricing. It was stated that the Ballpark Site could attract high demand because of it’s past and the public transportation that runs right by it. Their main event is the DIY festival which hosts 18,000 people over 3 days; a permanent stage along with easy access to power would allow them to run their events at a lower cost. Additionally, the organizer noted that they could maybe do two-three (2-3) events per year granted amenity requests are met. o INTEREST LEVEL: HIGH SALT LAKE CITY WEEKLY •Salt Lake City’s only free alternative newsweekly; they also host a multitude of smaller events. •This organization has used venues like the Utah State Fair Park, the Gallivan Center, and the Gateway. Versatility of a venue and its ability to handle extreme weather is important to them. Their largest event is the Utah beer festival in which they host 3,000-5,000 people for 2 days. The interviewee stated that the location of the venue is fine because of public transportation already in place. Many of their events are around 500-1,000 people, so while a site like the Ballpark could host them, they would not need the whole space. It would depend on how the site is built out, but they are interested in hosting a handful of new events there. o INTEREST LEVEL: MEDIUM-HIGH LOCAL EVENT ORGANIZER FEEDBACK (CONT.) DRAFT – Subject to Change 60 SPORTS MARKETING COLLECTIVE •Provides Sponsorship Sale and Media Rights consulting services. Has relationships with USA Cycling, USA Skateboarding, USA Climbing, X Games, and more. •The interviewee stressed to keep this venue multi-use and active year-round. To do that, an anchor tenant is necessary to ensure foot traffic every day. Also, keeping popular attractions in the Ballpark is key, like the wiffle ball field and the train. The consultant stated that the location is great because all new development is happening south of downtown. The interviewee supported an entertainment venue of around 5,000-6,000 capacity to regularly host 2,000-3,000. Weekly programming could be achievable between entertainment events and events with the above relationships. o INTEREST LEVEL: MEDIUM-HIGH URBAN FLEA MARKET •The Urban Flea Market is a year-round vintage, yard sale style, and handcrafted market. •The interviewee stated that they’ve been running their market for 14 years now at the Gateway. The organizer mentioned more market friendly event space is necessary; the Fair Park was a bad experience as they attempted to charge vendors to be there, and Pioneer Park is now unavailable due to upcoming redevelopment. With brick-and-mortar amenities like bathrooms and structures to cope with weather, the Ballpark Site would be a great place for them. The market is hosted monthly on every second Sunday, with over 100 vendors and 3,000 people in attendance. If the venue can act as a larger marketplace, the Flea Market would definitely host here. o INTEREST LEVEL: HIGH LOCAL EVENT ORGANIZER FEEDBACK (CONT.) DRAFT – Subject to Change 61 UTAH ARTS ALLIANCE •Their mission is to foster the arts to create an aware, empowered, and connected community. •Past venues include the Gateway, the Gallivan Center, Library Square, and the Utah State Fair Park. They were priced out of the Gateway and the Gallivan Center, and they’ve had trouble getting access to Library Square. The interviewee said they feel like they’re being abandoned, and that this venue has a big opportunity to make them feel welcome again. The organizer stated the Ballpark is an iconic landmark and believes the structure could be repurposed. They host two main festivals, the Urban Arts Festival, which does 35K+ in attendance over two days, and Illuminate Salt Lake. They could host anywhere from their two large events to weekly events depending on cost/amenities. o INTEREST LEVEL: HIGH LOCAL EVENT ORGANIZER FEEDBACK (CONT.) DRAFT – Subject to Change KEY TAKEAWAYS & CONCLUSION: LOCAL EVENT ORGANIZERS 62 •Perceptions of Current Event Venues in the Salt Lake Market: Local event organizers had similar feedback regarding existing venues for their events. Multiple interviewees stated that they’ve gotten displaced from downtown venues like the Gallivan Center due to financial reasons. Another group noted that the Fair Park and Pioneer Park have not been friendly toward their events. •Ideal Amenities for a Redeveloped Smith’s Ballpark: Permanent infrastructure including a stage, bathrooms, access to power, and mechanism for weather protection are common asks. CONCLUSION Local event organizers expressed high interest and the ability to program the redeveloped ballpark consistently. If the site had the features and amenities to make it turnkey for the event organizers, it’s very likely outdoor events would be held almost year-round. DRAFT – Subject to Change 6. LOCAL EVENT ORGANIZER & CONCERT PROMOTER INTERVIEWS B. CONCERT PROMOTERS 63 DRAFT – Subject to Change CONCERT PROMOTER FEEDBACK 64 Victus spoke with the following four (4) concert promoters regarding the feasibility of a potential new outdoor concert venue at a redeveloped Smith’s Ballpark. •MagicSpace Entertainment •Richter Entertainment Group •S&S Presents •The State Room Presents Key highlights from their feedback are presented in the remainder of this section. PERCEPTIONS OF OUTDOOR CONCERT VENUES IN THE SALT LAKE MARKET •Event organizers had varying perceptions regarding the current Salt Lake outdoor concert venue market. Two promoters mentioned that there is a gap to be filled within the market with a mid-sized venue somewhere between 4,000 to 8,000 capacity. Another event organizer said 11,000-12,000 capacity would be ideal. DRAFT – Subject to Change 65 MAGICSPACE ENTERTAINMENT •MagicSpace produces a wide variety of stage shows, ranging from comedians and illusionists, to dance groups, holiday shows, and other concert performers. •The promoter has used multiple facilities in the area and believes in some demand for a new venue at Smith’s Ballpark. The interviewee stated that there is big competition in neighboring markets, so with no commercial pipeline, the site is better suited for festivals. Concern about possible noise ordinances was voiced as other venues up near North Temple in addition further south in Sandy have 10pm shutdowns. The promoter noted that they could do 12-20 events yearly with an exclusive deal and three (3) to five (5) events if they were not exclusive. o INTEREST LEVEL: MEDIUM-HIGH RICHTER GROUP •Richter primarily focuses on promoting classic rock concerts. •The promoter had positive things to say about the Salt Lake Market, noting that it’s not just a family market and people are not opposed to going downtown at night. The interviewee stated that a 5,000 to 7,500-seat capacity is good, possibly even 3,500 as it’s more cost-efficient and there’s not enough “big fish” in the area to cater to a larger venue. Two/thirds general admission and a one/third fixed- seating is ideal with power, shade, and permanent bathrooms on site. Depending on the deal, Richter would attempt to host as many events as they could in the 5-month weather window. Realistically, half a dozen events is feasible. o INTEREST LEVEL: MEDIUM-HIGH CONCERT PROMOTER FEEDBACK (CONT.) DRAFT – Subject to Change 66 S&S PRESENTS •Currently produce over 1,000 concerts a year throughout multiple venues in Salt Lake City. •The interviewee stated that in Salt Lake County, there are many venues around 3,000-seat capacity and larger ones like Utah First Credit Union Amphitheater which can hold 20,000; a venue with a 11,000 to 12,000-seat capacity could fill a void. Amenities on site to accommodate artists such as convenient load-in and nice dressing rooms is very important; a turnkey venue will attract more performers. If the venue meets the requirements above, S&S would expect 40 concert nights, with their organization programming about five (5) to six (6). o INTEREST LEVEL: MEDIUM-HIGH THE STATE ROOM PRESENTS •Hosts variety of performances in intimate venues featuring multiple music genres. •The interviewee expressed that there are a good number of outdoor concert venues in the Salt Lake Market and by adding another one, the market could become oversaturated. The promoter noted that the location of the Smith’s Ballpark is appealing as there’s already a history of people gathering there in addition to growth in housing in that area. They indicated that the proposed venue should be multi- purpose since a dedicated outdoor concert venue would lack the programming demand necessary to keep it successful. They also stressed focusing on an experienced operator for whatever the site becomes. In terms of usage, it would depend on level of activation, community interest, and cost. o INTEREST LEVEL: MEDIUM CONCERT PROMOTER FEEDBACK (CONT.) DRAFT – Subject to Change 67 PRELIMINARY INTEREST IN OPERATING AND/OR BOOKING EVENTS AT A NEW AMPHITHEATER AT THE SMITH’S BALLPARK Note: Sorted by Company in alphabetical order First range of events for MagicSpace Entertainment is if they were the sole operator, second number is as a user. As shown above, all the concert promoters interviewed expressed some level of interest booking and/or operating events at a redeveloped Smith’s Ballpark. One (1) of the interviewees noted that they would also like to operate the venue and have exclusive booking rights. Another promoter expressed interest in potentially holding events at a potential new outdoor concert venue but did not disclose the number of events or ideal capacity. CONCERT PROMOTER FEEDBACK (CONT.) DRAFT – Subject to Change 68 Victus frequently converses with national concert promoters such as Live Nation and AEG, and they recently shared the following insights regarding the Salt Lake City concert market: •The Salt Lake City Market is home to a young and growing population that can support a busy event season. There are a multitude of venues with capacities under 5,000 to host smaller artists, and Utah First Credit Union Amphitheater (which Live Nation owns and operates) hosts most events over 10,000-15,000 in attendance. Live Nation and AEG believe a venue with 5,000-8,000 capacity could fill a gap within the Salt Lake Market. •Live Nation is willing to take on venues in the Salt Lake Market granted they are getting a good deal financially. This usually includes Live Nation being the exclusive operator of the venue so they can program autonomously without any scheduling conflicts. •Because Live Nation owns and operates Utah First Credit Union Amphitheater, AEG believes there may not enough new business to be captured in the Salt Lake Market. NATIONAL CONCERT PROMOTER INSIGHTS DRAFT – Subject to Change KEY TAKEAWAYS & CONCLUSION: CONCERT PROMOTERS 69 •General Perception of Salt Lake Outdoor Concert Venue Market : Many of the concert promoters interviewed expressed interest in a new outdoor concert venue but also some concern about over- saturation in the Salt Lake Market. While all of the promoters stated they could host events there, some voiced concern about possible lack of demand and sufficient programming opportunities. •National Concert Promoter Insights: Live Nation and AEG believe a venue with 5,000-8,000 capacity could fill a gap within the Salt Lake Market. That said, because Live Nation owns and operates Utah First Credit Union Amphitheater, AEG believes there may not enough new business to be captured in the Salt Lake Market. CONCLUSION Concert promoters expressed interest in a potential new outdoor concert venue at a redeveloped Smith’s Ballpark but were not very confident about being able to sustain enough programming. It is likely that a redeveloped Smith’s Ballpark would not be sustainable as a dedicated outdoor concert venue with no other programming. DRAFT – Subject to Change 7.

Those stadiums also program events and concerts to maximize revenue. •Other Non-Sports Uses: One venue was converted into apartments while keeping the original structure and another has approved city funding to begin commercial and retail development while preserving parts of the concourse. Another venue has catered directly to the community by reframing the field for the youth and expanding the other areas into a park and museum. CONCLUSION There are multiple different approaches than can be taken with the Smith’s Ballpark site as evidenced by the comparable case studies presented in this section. Ultimately, the future development should strive to meet the needs of the local community while at the same time generate year-round usage and activation. 84 DRAFT – Subject to Change 8. RESEARCH FINDINGS & VENUE OPTIONS 85 DRAFT – Subject to Change OVERVIEW Our research findings and venue options are based primarily upon the following primary and secondary research conducted by Victus Advisors over the course of this study: •Analysis of Smith’s Ballpark’s unique market characteristics. •Review of comparative and competitive outdoor concert venues in the Salt Lake City Market •Feedback via interviews stakeholders, event organizers, and concert promoters. Based on customized research and our extensive industry experience, we have identified three (3) options for the Ballpark Next development: 1.New Space (Demolish Smith’s Ballpark & Create New Open Space) 2.Hybrid New Space (Create New Multi-Use Space & Keep Certain Elements of Smith’s Ballpark) 3.Keep Ballpark (Create New Multi-Use Space & Keep Most of Smith’s Ballpark) 86 DRAFT – Subject to Change OPTION 1: NEW SPACE The SLCRDA could consider a complete demolition of Smith’s Ballpark and create a new open space. The space could have all or some of the following features and amenities: •Green space •Playgrounds •Walking and running trails •Splash pad •Other outdoor park amenities such as outdoor basketball, tennis, and pickleball courts •Skateboard park PROS: •New open/green spaces such as parks tend to be community assets and help to increase quality of life. CONS: •A complete demolition of Smith’s Ballpark could create a negative reaction from community members who would feel as though a part of the community identity would be lost. •A demolition of the site and redevelopment could be very costly. •Other parks and open spaces in Salt Lake City have had issues with safety issues such as drug use and homelessness. There is a concern that a new open/green space could amplify those issues. 87 DRAFT – Subject to Change OPTION 2: HYBRID NEW SPACE The SLCRDA could consider a repurposed Smith’s Ballpark that keeps certain elements of the venue. The repurposed venue could have all or some of the following features and amenities: •Green space •Walking and running trails •Indoor and outdoor retail and restaurants •Office and residential units •Event space for festivals, outdoor concerts, and sports events PROS: •Multiple stakeholders believe in the primary activation being public space, one emphasizing how it should be easily programmable. Consensus is that the Bee’s are leaving a void in the community that needs to be filled with something community focused and not what’s best financially. •One stakeholder wants the venue to be a possible place to host smaller, community events like flea markets/farmers markets. Many of these smaller groups have had trouble finding places to operate downtown, so the ballpark site could provide a place to go. CONS: •A multi-use venue catering to various event organizers could create scheduling and programming challenges if not properly managed by a reputable venue operator. 88 DRAFT – Subject to Change OPTION 3: KEEP BALLPARK The SLCRDA could consider a keeping Smith’s Ballpark as it currently stands, but make adaptions to host other activities and events other than baseball. The venue could have all or some of the following features and amenities: •Multi-use sports field •Spectator seating •Dedicated outdoor concert venue PROS: •One stakeholder wants to turn the venue into a women’s sports and concert venue. The field would act as the epicenter for development around it, including possible festival streets, local art, a parking lot with programmable green space on top, and more. The stakeholder stated, “the community wants to feel something”, and local activation is the best way to do that. •Live Nation and AEG believe a venue with 5,000-8,000 capacity could fill a gap within the Salt Lake Market. CONS: •Concert promoters expressed interest in a potential new outdoor concert venue at a redeveloped Smith’s Ballpark but were not very confident about being able to sustain enough programming. It is likely that a redeveloped Smith’s Ballpark would not be sustainable as a dedicated outdoor concert venue with no other programming. 89 DRAFT – Subject to Change OPTION 3: ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS PIONEER BASEBALL LEAGUE Victus understands that Salt Lake City has been approached about Smith’s Ballpark potentially being the home for a new Pioneer Baseball League (Independent League Baseball) franchise. The Pioneer Baseball League is a minor league baseball league that is recognized as an “Major League Baseball (MLB)” partner league. That said, none of its 12 current teams are affiliated with an MLB team. The below chart details the Pioneer Baseball League: 90 2024 2024 Seating Avg.

(3) Micropolitan Statistical Areas (µSA) µSA’s are defined by U.S. Office of Management & Budget as one or more adjacent counties or county equivalents that have at least one urban core area of at least 10,000 population but less than 50,000, plus adjacent territory that has a high degree of social and economic integration. DRAFT – Subject to Change OPTION 3: ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS (CONT.) PIONEER BASEBALL LEAGUE (CONT.) As shown on the previous page, Pioneer League Baseball stadiums have an average seating capacity of 2,500. Furthermore, average reported attendance per game for the 2024 season was under 1,500. It should also be noted that there are only two (2) franchises that play in markets with populations over one million people. The Salt Lake MSA has a population of over 1.3 million. Lastly, the Bees will still be in the same county and MSA as the potential franchise when the team begins play in South Jordan. It is very rare for an independent baseball league team to play in the same market as a minor league baseball team (MLB-affiliated). While Salt Lake City could consider Smith’s Ballpark as a home venue for a Pioneer Baseball League franchise, it is unreasonable to expect similar attendance figures and even appeal that the Bees experienced. OTHER SPORTS USES Victus identified potential event demand for other, non-mainstream sports such as X Games. One of the interviewees indicated that they have relationships with other sports organizations that could find the venue appealing for special sports events. They recommended a seating capacity no larger than 6,000 which could potentially work under Option 2. 91 DRAFT – Subject to Change CONTACT INFORMATION VICTUS ADVISORS LLC 2720 Homestead Road Suite 130 Park City, UT 84098 (435) 776-5728 www.victusadvisors.com 92 Appendix I: Ballpark Adaptive Re-Use Preliminary Engineer’s Opinion of Probable Cost Ballpark NEXT - Preliminary Engineer's Opinion of Probable Cost ITEM # LABEL DESCRIPTION VALUE NOTES AND ASSUMPTIONS ADAPTIVE RE-USE 1 DEMO - 1 Building Demolition, Large Urban Project, Steel, Includes 20 mile haul 1,056,397.71$ -Separation, demolition, removal and disposal of section of the former Smith’s Ballpark stadium structure down to the existing foundations.
