Salt Lake County seeks $128M bond for parks and recreation projects
What happened
Salt Lake County is seeking voter approval for a $128 million bond dedicated to parks and recreation projects. The funding will support new constructions, such as a recreation center at Union Park, and trail expansions at Big Cottonwood Regional Park. The bond measure is scheduled to appear on the November 3 Midterm Election ballot.

Why it matters
The proposed bond replaces an expiring 2016 bond, meaning the current property tax rate of $1.37 per month would remain unchanged if the bond is approved. The funds are designated for 30 different projects planned across the county.
