Not enough transparency the state doing whatever it wants w/o regard to the city or its residents Who benefits from the proposed “economic development”? Growth is to large for our area. We want a good area to enjoy. Increased population in valley, increased GHG emissions how it was created, who is on the boards, the facts that meetings are nt open My community has been footing the bill for all these public utility upgrades they say are required anyway but likely would not be. Air quality for my 3 year old with asthma we would likely leave the community or the state to seek healthier air as our utah governor does not care about utah residents. Possible coal dust my grandchikdren live near the proposed inland port and the increased pollution negatively affects learning and behavior for them and other children. More urbanization and paving less water recharge Noise, loss of tax money. Security and public safey costs. Until we deal with our current air pollution, we should not try to grow the area AT. ALL. We need to reduce industrial activities and traffic, not increase it. to be used for smuggling drugs and humans I'm very concerned after reading that the inland port board has voted to keep their meetings closed. Everything 5 Quality of life on the Wasatch Front The legislative leaders aren't listening to Salt Lake City and West Valley residents to get their input on this project. It wasn't given a fair public hearing during the last legislative session. I didn't know anything about it until it had already been signed into law. That's not fair to the citizens of Salt Lake City Traffic I am very concerned about this whole endeavour. We should scrap this plan and try to figure out how to protect our lands and get the outdoor retailers exhibit back! Some manufacturing requires excessive amounts of water. This could lead to the additional damming of waterways and secondly, the dust storms created from water manipulation will ultimately lead to even worse air than we currently have. Traffic commutes, safety If, and many say when, Great Salt Lake rises and floods, where will the birds go if the upland areas surrounding the lake are taken by development? What impacts will flooding have on the port facilities and infrastructure? The port area is in an area of poorly consolidated soils and historic lake sediments. The soils are prone to liquefaction during earthquakes. Possible increase in transport and or storage of toxic materials, increasing risk of contamination. Excessive growth Increased heavy traffic air pollution travels; more truck traffic all along I-15 and I-80/84 routes The State usurping their authority over salt lake city. I don’t want this monstrosity built I think this will contribute to more poor air quality days. The economic gain/impact should be compared to the increased health care costs. Just today another report tied to Alzheimers linked to air pollution. This project does not seem to be well thought out or transparent Earthquake liquifaction, state takeover, Overall the process for this entire project has excluded the public. noise pollution, light pollution, further insults to air and water quality, as well as habitat destruction. Overall quality of life in SL County Don't believe entire idea was adequately vetted with public or demonstrated to be viable and desirable development. increase of crime Increased population. 6 I find it hard to believe that there would be any improvement in quality of life for. Utah citizens and visitors. Economic impacts. I am concerned that the port will create an increase in maintenance burdens on the infrastructure that the citizens of salt lake city will have to bear (i.E. INCREASED TAXES) without assistance from the rest of the stat. This is being unjustly forced upon the citizens of SLC by the state legislature and Im concerned that they don't have the same concerns for our quality of life and the degradation of such the are imposing upon us. There has been no representation from the local community. The process has been over-run by state officials for the purpose of enriching themselves. We really should be putting time and energy into alternative modes of energy, specifically solar and wind, which would then make for cleaner burning vehicles and industrial plants. The State usurping the powers and duties of the city. Increase to Magna/WVC taxation levels to support port infrastructure. Goods that are transported inland even from CA could be harmful if not screened. I would be concerned about Contraband or Dangerous good being transported without being properly screened. The Legislative action by which this took place was seriously problematic. The State of Utah preaches about federal “take over” of states rights, and then the State of Utah pushes on Utah’s largest local government. The action seems ironic. Is this just all about money to the developers? Now, you are bringing in more low wage jobs and we already don't have the appropriate housing. Ugly cheap apartment buildings are being placed on every available corner. I guess the developers are getting even richer, and the Mayor thinks it's all OK, because we have to cater to the low income people and bring them downtown. What about building codes? Increased congestion all around. Salt Lake quality of life is diminishing. Salt Lake County and the State of Utah already have a crisis of affordable housing. Development of an inland port must come with a plan to provide affordable housing options for the workforce it plans to use for operations. This legislation was pushed through without City and citizen input. I worry that they will get tax breaks and not pay the true price for all the disruptio, destruction, and pollution. The drain on our scarce water and the additional truck and plane pollution worry me most. I also worry about low-paid jobs adding to the demand for low-income housing that we already have a deficit in. Need for more high-density housing for workers there, and the likelyhood of a resultant rising crime rate . This port is another way for our developer heavy Legislature to line their pockets at the expense of those who they feel are the expendables. Sensitive species includine Peregrine Falcons, Golden Eagles and Ferruginous Hawks have been observed in the area. I am extremely concerned this was done too quickly, passed at the last minute without public input,seemingly by design so that facts on the ground would be established to counter any opposition. This is classic fly-by-night government and private interests hand-in-hand trying to rush into a deal before the adverse effects can be known and discussed. Negative visual impacts to a gateway to our City. Trains, trucks, cranes and containerized cargo will be one of the first things visitors coming through our modernized airport will be the first thing they'll see. 7 The health of me and my family for breathing in more pollutants legality of it Congestion throughout the city and at the airport. I don't think an inland port is a good industry for Utah, especially in Salt Lake Loss of green space and wild space for birds and wildlife The environment, the people, not enough water and resources and the jurisdiction of this area not necessarily accountable to the people, but other organizations, government or private that do not have transparency. Traffic, pollution, decreased quality of life and property values for entire valley. I think the costs will balloon and only the developers will profit from this Congested roads with more trucks, limited value of this e enterprise compared to the cost; both in monetary & environmental terms We don't want the inland port. All the extra truck traffic this is going to bring Seriously, is this port really necessary? There is absolutely nothing good that will come of this. negative impacts on quality of life in Salt Lake City Who will pay for this? I don’t want my tax money supporting dirty, noisy industries This is just one more way that the state is dumping environmental disasters on the west side of slc. Increased light pollution extremely detrimental to the health of the Great Salt Lake -- a resource that is vastly overlooked and undervalued. By converting some of the last remaining upland grass and shrublands and wetland habitats around the south shore of the lake, water quality will suffer.
