  • Mayor Ralph Becker
    Mayor Ralph Becker Salt Lake City Mayor Ralph Becker is the popular, two-term Mayor of Utah’s Capital City. He was elected in 2007 and re-elected in 2011 by a wide margin. A visible and highly regarded national leader among U.S. mayors, Mayor Becker currently serves as President of the National League of Cities and recently completed work as one of a small group of municipal leaders on the White House Task Force on Climate Preparedness and Resilience. As Mayor, he has been an advocate for expanding Salt Lake City’s mobility and transportation options, sustainability, equality, social justice and enhancing the artistic and cultural life of the City. During the great recession (which began the year he took office) Mayor Becker led Salt Lake City government in addressing the largest budget gap in the City’s history without raising taxes, reducing core City services or implementing significant layoffs. “Mobility, or how we get around, is very important. A lot of people know me as the Mayor who rides his bike to work. It’s true, I ride my bike all over the city... I’ve worked pretty hard in recent years to make biking easier and safer in our city.” 2015 State of the City Address “We want walkable neighborhoods throughout the city and vibrant neighborhoods where people have easy access to services and feel included.” Georgetown University panel discussion, November 2014 Before serving as the chief executive of Salt Lake City, Ralph was a member of the Utah State House of Representatives, highlighted by five years as the House Democratic Leader.

  • Utah's Inspirational Role in the New Slc's Stunning Design
    THE NEW SLC AIRPORT CLEARED FOR TAKEOFF SEPTEMBER 15, 2020 UTAH’S INSPIRATIONAL ROLE IN THE NEW SLC'S STUNNING DESIGN PASSENGER AMENITIES APLENTY FABULOUS NEW SHOPPING & DINING OPTIONS WELCOME TO THE NEW SLC No doubt, flying is a magical experience. As the plane takes off and the land below becomes smaller and smaller, the world seems to melt away as you embark on a journey that will become part of your story. Airports become part of our travel stories, too, and some are more memorable than others. Maybe you remember Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport (ATL) for the Christmas Eve dinner you ate there after missing a connecting flight due to a massive winter storm. Or the Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport (MAD), where someone helped you connect when you couldn’t find your gate because, at that airport, gates are not assigned until 20 minutes prior to departure. Or maybe you go out of your way to connect through the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) so you can visit the little shop with the so-unique gifts you found by accident there. When The New SLC International Airport (SLC) opens September 15, we’re confident it will rise to the top of exceptional travel experiences for all those who pass through it, even if they never step foot outside of the building. What will travelers remember about The New SLC? From awe-inspiring art installations like The Canyon and The Falls, and the Delta Sky Club’s outdoor deck, with its beautiful mountain views to the electric plug- ins at each seat in the gate waiting areas to the eclectic roster of high-end shops and restaurants with street pricing, there’s plenty to be impressed by within The New SLC.

  • Greater Avenues Community Council Proposed Overlay for the SR-1
    Greater Avenues Community Council Proposed Overlay for the SR-1 Zoning District March 6th, 2006 Greater Avenues Community Council 1180 1st Avenue, Salt Lake City, UT 84103 Stephen F. Mecham, Chair Phone: 801 359-4165 Salt Lake City Council Salt Lake City Planning and Zoning 451 South State Street, Room 406 Salt Lake City, Utah 84111 Dear Council Members and City Planners: The Greater Avenues Community Council (GACC) is pleased to submit for your review the enclosed SR-1 Overlay overwhelmingly approved by the GACC March 1, 2006. As you know, in July 2005 GACC established the Housing Compatibility Committee to develop the enclosed Overlay. In its March 1, 2006 meeting, GACC also voted to allow representatives of the Housing Compatibility Committee to work with Planning and Zoning if any changes are needed to facilitate City Council approval of the Overlay. During the past seven months, the Housing Compatibility Committee has sought public input and has worked diligently to develop the Overlay to preserve and protect the unique characteristics of SR-1 properties in the eclectic Avenues area. The GACC believes the draft Overlay establishes a new set of fair and flexible zoning rules specific for the Avenues District SR-1 area that will allow for a large range of diverse development patterns and still provide a measure of predictability for everyone in the community. We urge you to approve the Overlay as it is proposed. We look forward to working with you in enacting and implementing the Overlay. You may call me at 359-4165 with any questions. Housing Compatibility Committee spokesperson Shane Carlson may be reached at 596-3939 and Committee Chair Lon Richardson may be reached at 364-4529.
