  • There Is the Salt Lake City You Think You Know – Centered on Skiing, the 2002 Winter Olympics and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
    There is the Salt Lake City you think you know – centered on skiing, the 2002 Winter Olympics and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. And there is the Salt Lake City you’re going to experience during ChamberRVA’s 2019 InterCity Visit. If you’ve never been to Salt Lake City, we guarantee you’re going to be both surprised and delighted. Not everything is big in Salt Lake City, but it's anchored by a few sizable natural and man-made features. The waters of the Great Salt Lake and the snow-capped Wasatch Range marks the western edge of the Rocky Mountains. Central to downtown is the 10-acre Temple Square and the 253,000-square-foot Salt Lake Temple – the literal “place maker” of Salt Lake City, as city addresses are determined by their distance from the square. History and geography conspired to infuse Salt Lake City with an independent streak. For thousands of years, the Salt Lake Valley was home to Shoshone and other indigenous tribes. In 1847, a group of Latter-day Saints led by Brigham Young established a small settlement that quickly grew to become one of the most populous cities in the American West. Known as “the Crossroads of the West,” the city is situated almost equidistant between Denver, Colorado, and Sacramento, California – an eight- to ten- hour drive east or west. The Gold Rush and construction of the Transcontinental Railroad in 1870 contributed to the city’s early, rapid growth. With a metropolitan population of more than one million – the city itself is home to almost 200,000 people – Salt Lake City is comparable in size to Richmond.

  • Publicpolicy 2009Guide As Utah’S Business Leader, We Stand As the Voice of Business, We Support Our Members’ Success and We Champion Community Prosperity
    PublicPOLICY 2009Guide As Utah’s business leader, we stand as the voice of business, we support our members’ success and we champion community prosperity Dear Fellow Utahns, As utah’s business leader, the Salt lake chamber speaks out on public policy issues important to business and champions community prosperity. The chamber board of Governors understands the business importance of the public sector in educating the workforce, creating a level playing field, achieving a sensible regulatory environment and investing in infrastructure. in a very real way, sound public policy creates an environment for business success. business struggles in the absence of good government. influencing sound public policy entails more than a 45-day commitment during utah’s legislative session—much more. our eight policy task forces are engaged year-round in reviewing, developing, promoting and improving public policy at all levels of government—federal, state and local. The challenges of the past year reinforce the need for sound public policy in facilitating economic growth and opportunity. The enduring lesson gleaned from the Salt lake chamber’s century of business leadership is that our economy will continue to grow and will always recover from challenging times. utahns have reason to be optimistic. We have a well-trained workforce, superb transportation infrastructure, a reasonable regulatory environment, relatively low business costs and a diversified employment mix. These are the right ingredients for long-term success. our unemployment rate is about half of the national average, our state government is well managed, fuel prices have returned to reasonable levels and our recession is much milder than in other states.
