UNIVERSITY+--> OOWNTOWN+-->AIRPORT TRANSPORTATION CORRIDOR prepared by: BEAR W£sr 145 SotJTH 400 EAST SALT LAKE CITY, UT 84111 FOR DE LEUW, CATHER FEBRUARY 18, 1997 I Introduction Public involvement was a critical element in the development of a transportation corririddor from the University of Utah to the Airport and International Center in Salt Lake City. The deessignation of a corridor from the University of Utah through the downtown area to the Airportt initiated interesting discussion among participants in the public involvement process. Involvemnaem from businesses, community councils, and interested persons was instrumental in de&iggul.ing the alternatives that are included in the MIS/DEIS. This public involvement report i& deess igoed to demonstrate how the Wasatch Front Regional Council and the consultants interactedj w ith the public throughout the MIS/DEIS process and document the comments raised by the puuhblic. The goal of the public involvement program in the MIS/DEIS was to have resiaddent.s and businesses in each area along the proposed corridor guide Wasatch Front Regional! 1 Council, cooperating agencies and entities, and the consultants in area transportation decisiorms for the corridor, and to inform the public and document information about the proposed t.ranSSfpOrtation corridor from the University of Utah to the Airport. Public Involvement Process Public involvement in the MIS/DEIS consisted of scoping meetings, the formation of · uocal area committees, interviews with key downtown leaders, a general public meeting to discuss> !Proposed alternatives, written, telephonic and electronic public comments. In addition to these maone formal means of gathering public input, there have been a variety of informal contacts with tthte public, including telephone calls, interviews with individual residents, and the distribution c:off relevant information to interested parties. All of these contacts , both formal and informal, are dwrcumented and on file . Scoping Meeting The public involvement process began on May 9, 1996 with a public scoping meeetting . The meeting was advertised to offer two sessions: one beginning at 4 p.m . and one at 6 p>.m. Both sessions were held in the cafeteria at Bryant Intermediate School in Salt Lake City. Ccmsultants notified the public and agencies of the meeting by placing notices in the Federal Reegister and posting over 400 fliers throughout the communities at such locations as libraries, grocce1ry stores, retail outlets, post offices and bus schedule racks. The purpose of the initial meetimgs was to introduce the srudy and the primary players to the public, and to solicit from the public: comments and concerns regarding the corridor. The consultants opened the scoping meeting with an introduction to the srudy, givin1g the basic purpose and geographic scope of the MIS/DEIS . The introductory comments addresse!d how this project integrated with other efforts to improve the Salt Lake Va lley's transponatiom system­ including the Salt Lake Area Long Range Transportation Plan and the Long Range T'r:.ansi t Plan being developed-and discussed the agencies and entities that would be involved witht rrhe srudy. March 10, 1997 Major /nveslment Study/Draft Environmental Jlrnpact Statement Public Jnvolvememt Report, page 2 Finally, the introduction provided the public with an overview of the public involvement process. and invited their continued participation. II In the next segment of the scoping meeting, attendees asked questions and discussed their concerns. Comments were recorded on flip charts and were reviewed and refined as the meeting progressed. At the conclusion of the discussion, attendees were asked to identify the five comments they fe lt were most important, and to indicate their decision by placing adhesive dots next to the comments . Report of Scoping Meeting Results • The Public Involvement Team organized the comments into subject-matter categories, and listed them according to the number of "dots" each comment received. A complete list of the issues can be found in the project file. Comments regarding convenience, ease of use, and accessibility received substantially more "votes" than any other category. The following seven issues surfaced during the scoping meeting as the most important to the meeting attendees. • Behavioral - getting people out of cars , and into alternate modes of transportation • Convenience and accessibility - making non-auto modes more attractive and convenient; speed and number of stops • Expense - other modes need to cost less than driving • Congestion and traffic concerns • Importance of marketing, research, and education • Technical , such as a preference for certain types of technology or certain alignments • Environmental, land use, and safety concerns The complete list of issues was reviewed by the East and West committees to determine if there were additional issues that needed addressing. Committee Meetings To facilitate the process of gathering and addressing public comments, the public involvement team formed three committees: one for each area along the corridor (East, Central (downtown), and West). There were series of three meetings each with the East and West committees and one joint meeting with all the committee members and interested public invited. While the Central Committee did not met formally as a group , beginning in March, 1996, 20 key stakeholders were interviewed by the consultant and the WFRC. Beginning in June 1996, the West and East committees began meeting. In the first meeting, held June 5, 1996, the consultants and agency personnel assigned to each area introduced the study, reviewed the results of the scoping meeting, and gave an overview of transportation modes. ln the March 10. 1997 Major Investment Study/Draft Environmental Impact StaTement Public Involvement ReporJ, page 3 second meeting, held at the end of June, the consultants reviewed the issues raised te> 1ddaate, gave an overview of the basic purpose and need for the study, and began discussion •off · I potential alternatives. The comminees met for the third time in mid-July to discuss the altematiwe!!S > and had an opportunity to draw potential alignments on a corridor map. The srudy team held a meeting on February l3, 1997 to brief all members of thae! regional committees on the results of a detailed analysis of the alternatives. Approximately llt6GO people received invitations in the mail two weeks prior to the meeting. Twenty-two committ:eee : rmembers anending the meeting, which provide a forum for the consultants and agencies to discUJsss ; the data generated by the analysis of the alternatives. The meeting entailed a two-hour discrussssi•ion, with slides, during which meeting participants were presented with information, and encow r <agg~ed to ask questions and make comments. Public comments made in Committee Meetings As a result of the meetings with the Eastern and Western Comminees and the individwaal l contacts with downtown members, the foll owing issues, concerns, and questions have swrtfaacced from participants. West Committee General Comments • There are few services in the western corridor; residents need the abi~iny 1 to travel efficiently outside the corridor for their daily needs, or would like to have mcorre! services located nearby. • It is difficult to cross the west corridor on foot or by car, due to the physical b>am riers such as the highway , railroad , river. and industrial park. Accessibility between nei1glhlborhoods on the west side needs to be addressed for pedestrians and vehicles. • Need to know as much as possible about other local planning projects ttD rm;ake good planning decisions. • Concern regarding adequate emergency service ingress and egress to the are:a .. • Cheaper to change habits such as 40-hour work week than to change streets. • Opposed to widening of existing street. • Need more information on airport master plans.

Since 2014, I have served as executive director of the Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Development (GOED). More than a decade ago, Gov. Gary Herbert created a bold vision for Utah to become America’s strongest economy. By many measures, we’ve achieved that goal. For a decade, Forbes has ranked Utah a top-three Best State for Business, including six times in the number one spot. The Hachman Index has ranked Utah’s economy as the most diverse in the nation. Compared to other states, Utah has the lowest unemployment rate and highest per capita job creation. business.utah.gov GOED — in collaboration with statewide business, education and community leaders — works tirelessly to maintain Utah’s winning economy. Low tax rates, a vibrant workforce, and sensible regulations are part of the foundation for the state’s excellent business environment. Following the leadership of Gov. Herbert, we aim to “keep government off your backs and out of your wallet.” Utah’s secret sauce includes positive can-do attitudes, affordable education collaboration, and a generous amount of innovation. People choose to live and work in our great state because Utah has something to offer everyone — from a metropolitan capital region that includes more than 2 million people to the solitude of Utah’s Mighty Five® national parks.

    2004 Annual Financial Report THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH A Component Unit of the State of Utah Contents Message from the President 2 - 3 Independent State Auditor’s Report 4 - 5 Management’s Discussion and Analysis 6 - 17 Financial Statements 19 - 23 Statement of Net Assets 20 Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets 21 Statement of Cash Flows 22 - 23 Notes to Financial Statements 24 - 41 Governing Boards and Officers 42 Message from the President As the flagship institution of the Utah System of Higher Education, the University of Utah is a positive force in the intellectual, cultural, and economic lives of people and communities throughout our state. A University’s greatest resource is its people—students, faculty, administrators, staff, alumni, and friends. I am excited to be associated with a community of uncommonly talented and dedicated people here at the University of Utah. The financial information presented in this report is a reflection of their collective efforts. Despite fiscal challenges, financial results for this past year offer some reasons for optimism: • Each of our major sources of operating revenues were up significantly over fiscal year 2003. Patient revenues climbed 8%; grants and contracts rose by 6%; tuition and fees increased 8%; and sales and services jumped 13%. This demonstrates continuing confidence by our “customers” in the programs and services we offer—whether they be patient care, post-secondary education, sponsored research or public services. • Our endowments surpassed $300 million this fiscal year, with an overall investment return of over 16%. The growth and performance of our endowments reflect the generosity of our donors and their willingness to support the institution; and our investment management acumen, which maximizes the potential of these funds in providing much-needed resources in carrying out our mission.
