Naming the Northeast Baseball Field in Riverside Park “Neil Draper Field”
WHEREAS, Salt Lake City Code 3.65 creates a process for the naming of major City assets,
which includes a City-owned sports field.
WHEREAS, under City Code 3.65, the Mayor must provide the City Council with fifteen business
days’ notice of her intent to name a major asset, and the City Council may either allow the fifteen
days to pass, at which point the Mayor may name the major asset, or the City Council may
determine that the major asset should be named through a legislative process.
WHEREAS, Mayor Erin Mendenhall provided the City Council notice of her intent to name the
northeast baseball field in Riverside Park “Neil Draper Field” in recognition of Neil Draper, who
died on March 3, 2025. Mr. Draper was a long-time operator of Neil’s Pro Service, a neighborhood
business, that continues to serve the Rose Park neighborhood under the ownership of his son.
WHEREAS, the City Council, with consent from Mr. Draper’s family, has determined that the
naming of the northeast baseball field at Riverside Park should be done pursuant to a legislative
process and finds that there is good cause to name the field “Neil Draper Field.”
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL:
1. That the northeast baseball field at Riverside Park shall be known henceforth as the
Neil Draper Field.”
Passed by the Salt Lake City Council, this ____ day of July 2025.
