City Cast Salt Lake
🐟 See salmon swim
September 2, 2025
Hey, Salt Lake! Prime real estate is open downtown on Regent Street across from the Gallivan Center. What should go here? We had some ideas of our own for the old Dunkin on 400 South.
What's CITY Talking About?
Utah Halts Menzies Execution
The Utah Supreme Court has put a hold on Ralph Menzies’ execution, ruling that his worsening dementia requires a new competency evaluation before the state can proceed. Menzies was scheduled to be executed by firing squad this Friday, Sept. 5 for the 1986 murder of Maurine Hunsaker. [Salt Lake Tribune 🔒]
Plane Crash in Little Cottonwood
One person was killed and another critically injured when a small plane crashed in Little Cottonwood Canyon near Alta Ski Area on Sunday evening. Some areas of Albion Basin will be closed for investigation. [FOX 13]
Salt Lake Tightens Event Permits
Salt Lake City is revising its event permitting process. Beginning in 2026, organizers must disclose security plans, provide a day-of contact, and attest to truthful applications (with penalties for false information). [Salt Lake City]
- This comes after the June 14 protest where an armed volunteer fatally shot bystander Afa Ah Loo. [City Cast Salt Lake]
A Fice Gallery Book
Fice Gallery in downtown SLC is celebrating 17 years by putting together a book. If you’ve ever attended an event there and have some cool pics, send them to [email protected] and you might be featured! [Instagram]
