What's CITY Talking About?
Trains to Boise and Las Vegas
Plans to expand passenger rail in Utah — from Logan to St. George and Moab — and to nearby states via Boise and Las Vegas had been gaining steam. But with a new administration coming in, what could the future hold? [City Cast Salt Lake 🎧]
County Council Saves Money for Salt Palace
Salt Lake County leaders voted to hold $10 million from transportation funds for a potential overhaul of the Salt Palace Convention Center that’s estimated to cost over $1 billion. One council member raised legal concerns, suggesting the funds should stay with transportation. [KSL]
Union Pacific Hotel
The Union Pacific Depot building was converted into a luxury hotel and will open for business this week. The Asher Adams by Marriott has 225 rooms which range from around $300 to $2000 (for the most expensive suite). [KSL]
Great Salt Lake License Plate
At last, Utah’s new Great Salt Lake specialty license plates will be available as soon as January 2025 after receiving the necessary 500 applications. Revenue from the plates will support GSL preservation efforts. [KSL]
