I like to view our town & Snyderville Basin as one community that needs to work together to face issues. The Western part of Summit County has distinctly different needs than the Eastern, more rural, part of the County.

Cultural or Historical Interests
Our community contains a large variety of historical buildings and sites which are very much appreciated by the residents. There are community activities such as the Avenues Street Fair and the artists sponsor an annual art gallery stroll.
Community Activities and Services
Our community, the Greater Avenues is made up of a diverse population who work together to address issues of common interest such as parks, historic preservation, education, and libraries. The Greater Avenues Community Council, which has representatives from different areas of the Avenues, meets monthly and sends out a monthly newsletter to inform all residents of issues that affect everyone. In the past neighbors have organized to ensure compatible building standards and to help each other with natural disasters such as the windstorm of 2020, the tornado of 1999 and the flood of 1983. These actions helped to save the neighborhood from the effects of natural disasters.
Economic or Environmental Interests
We organize an annual cleanup of neighborhood parks and plant trees. Recently a group met with city officials to come up with a plan for the 4th Avenue Well that was needed to supply water to the downtown area that was also compatible with the Memory Grove neighborhood. The result was a building that fit with the character of the neighborhood and also met the city's water needs.
Community Needs and Concerns
Keep our community in the same district. We work together and help each other to ensure that we keep the character and charm intact and address needs as they arise.

Community Activities and Services
My community gets all services from outside the town of Hideout. Grocery shopping, gas, medical appointments, parks, churches, nonprofits are entirely located in Summit County and the greater Park City area, either in the area of Quinn's Junction, Kimball Junction, or within the Park City limits. Public transit is also based in Summit County and Park City. This area is defined by it's skiiing destinations which are also all in Park City and Summit County.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Hideout shares economic interests with Park City and Snyderville Basin. This is where we obtain all of our services. Tourism in this area (especially the ski resorts) is the reason most of Hideout's residents have moved here, to ski, bike, and when possible, to work remotely from our homes or have a relatively easy commute to the Salt Lake Valley or Airport.
Community Needs and Concerns
The Town of Hideout is a municipality with a rapidly growing population. The town is located in Wasatch County, where the closest county services, shopping, medical services, and recreation, are in Heber City, more than 15 miles away. Park City, in Summit County, is much closer, just 3 miles away, so residents fully identify with the Park City/Snyderville Basin area rather than Heber or Midway cities. Park City and Summit County is where all of us shop, get gas, go to doctors, recreate, and obtain all of our local services. Our friends live in Park City and Snyderville Basin, and we support the non-profits of Park City and Summit County. These should be Hideout's communities of interest.

healthcare homelessness air quality affordable multicultural
Cultural or Historical Interests
Our community is fairly diverse, for Utah. Quite a few refugees have been moved into our community (which is wonderful), and they need additional support for language acquisition to help with getting jobs, affordable housing, access to public transportation, etc. School districts seem to have been working hard to help with the children coming into the system who need support learning a new language while learning about their new country. Our community offers multiple festivals, particularly in the summer and fall, dedicated to celebrating the diverse ethnic and artistic cultures in our population.
Community Activities and Services
We have parks and libraries that are fairly easy to access on foot or via public transportation. More children have been moving into and being born in our community, and our schools are reaching capacity (some probably need to be rebuilt or retrofitted for earthquake safety). Our parks are extremely well utilized by adults and children (but homeless individuals and camps can make the parks feel less safe).
Economic or Environmental Interests
Our community suffers from extremely poor air quality. Being near the airport, our air pollution problems are evident to visitors/tourists flying in from around the world. We are also suffering a huge increase in the numbers of homeless individuals and families; their issues are diverse and not fully researched or understood. Housing is getting to be too expensive, which complicates the homelessness issues.
Community Needs and Concerns
This is an urban community. We need a representative who is focused on the needs of urban communities (affordable housing, clean air, access to more public transportation, more/safer school buildings and teachers). It doesn't make sense to divide our community up and spread it to other districts that are more rural and have very different issues (farming, mining, etc.)

transportation renewable resources education environment affordable
Cultural or Historical Interests
Ogden has a long history of community and a strong local economy. We care about everyone in our community, including racial minorities, immigrants, our artists, and everyone who wants to call Ogden home. We deserve to have our voices united. We should not have our voices broken up with rural areas around Ogden. They deserve their own voice, and the city if Ogden deserves it's own unhindered voice. Especially that much of Ogden is more liberal than rural areas, when Ogden is broken up into chunks, it gives the power to rural voices, and takes it away from a whole city that wants to see change. Ogden should not be split into multiple districts. We deserve our own district.
Community Activities and Services
Our community is made of everyone and anyone who loves the area. We've got one of the most diverse populations in Utah and we love it and want everyone's voice to be heard. Ogden city has a strong community center near 25th street with a beautiful arts community. We have active ability for the community to come together, and there are always events happening to get the community together. We love our parks, and natural resources. We love our community gardens and public spaces. We want to preserve and appreciate our rivers, mountains, and our native plants and animals. We want Ogden to be a safe haven for nature and we want Ogden to continue to move towards being a beautiful city.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community utilizes the water from Pineview and we care deeply about the pollution affecting our water supply. We also care about the management of our water and ensuring that it is utilized in a sustainable way for residents and for the ecosystems that depend on the water (i.e. rivers, lakes, etc). We also care about the air quality in our region because we all have to breath the same polluted air. Our lung cancer rates among non-smokers is higher than the national average because of our geography. We care about running our region better than than the nation in regards to air quality because we care about having clean, healthy air for us and our children to breath.
Community Needs and Concerns
My community cares about having a voice in our democratic system. Ogden has historically been divided into districts that expand far outside into rural communities. This weakens out voice and effectively gives Ogden no ability to express it's desires in a meaningful way. We are a strong community and we deserve to have a strong voice over our area. Rural areas deserve their own vote, and Ogden deserves it's ability to function as a community in regards to redistricting. Ogden deserves to be it's own district to express the desires of our community as a whole. We know our neighbors and love our community and we know what is best for Ogden.

Community Activities and Services
My community is located West of 700 East in between Liberty Park and 400 S in Salt Lake City, UT.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is located south of North Salt Lake (a heavily pollutant industrial area). We have a fairly large homeless population and there is a lot of tension between police, community organizers, and community members about the issue. Everyone in my community wants to help individuals experiencing homelessness to get off the street. Individuals experiencing homelessness tend to congregate in our area of town and we do not have enough homeless shelters or resources to adequately care for them all.
Community Needs and Concerns
My community needs more resources for individuals experiencing homelessness. My community needs more affordable housing and transportation.

We are a predominantly Mormon valley but there are a wide representation of denominations around the Utah Valley area. Our age group is definitely lower with the majority of population in the area being made up of college students. We are expanding in Hispanic numbers and deserve representation in that area.
Community Activities and Services
My community is made up of a wide variety of age groups. This is a college town and that means there is a diverse group of college age students living in areas around both Utah Valley University and Brigham Young University. There is also a diverse and family oriented group of individuals in Utah Valley. Both universities draw plenty of visitors to their facilities with both art and sports performances occurring regularly throughout the year. There are numerous apartment complexes including The Green, University Towers, University Gateway, and Parkway Lofts. A lot of these areas are accessible via UTA public transportation but there is very little in the way of parks and open nature spaces.
Economic or Environmental Interests
We are located near Utah Lake and the massive plans to introduce human projects into the lake to supposedly restore it to a former glory raises concerns to me. It's one of the biggest fresh bodies of water this side of the Mississippi and deserves to be preserved rather than meddled with. In addition, the climate change of recent decades has had an impact on weather patterns in Orem and there needs to be more action to bring attention and fix these issues.

There’s mainly two groups of ethnic groups here Hispanic and white.

There’s also a lot more people coming in from outside if Utah mainly from California as well as Mexico.
Community Activities and Services
The community is more residential place where lots of families live in the area and then go outside of the community to work. There’s several elementary schools that all funnel to the one high school we have (Wasatch high). In face this school brings in a lot of students from other communities since it’s the closed one to them. There’s also a UVU campus right outside of Heber where many student go on to continue there study.
Economic or Environmental Interests
The community is in the better economic side of the economic scale as the housing market in Heber is really high as many people are moving in and there not being enough housing for people especially affordable apartments this area is many family houses and the only apartments are outskirts of the community.

Cultural or Historical Interests
My community represents an increasingly diversified demographic. Young families are moving into older post-war, mid-century homes, older folks who have lived in the same homes for decades, and newer builds where more established people areliving. It is also increasingly politically diverse, our neighborhood had signs for both presidential candidates this last year. You can find pride flags and blue stripe flags on the same street.
Community Activities and Services
My community uses the libraries, Davis Co. rec center, hiking and biking mountain trails, city parks, city splash pad, farmer's market, Friday food trucks, summer parades, shopping and eating on main street, and places of worship.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My neighborhood is full of young working professionals, and the retired. Many of the young people work for companies outside of Bountiful, many in Salt Lake or further south. In general, I think the community values access to nature and the mountains. Access to ski resorts, bike trails, lakes, etc. are all valuable.
Community Needs and Concerns
My community is growing quickly and the city of Bountiful is almost all out of empty land. The city will become denser in the future, and so we will need better options for transit, smart zoning practices, and maintaining a sense of community. Politically, Bountiful, and the southern end of Davis Co., in general, is increasingly purple. The young families buying older homes are more progressive and liberal than the older, more established people.

Cultural or Historical Interests
Historic downtown Provo, BYU campus, potential for new historical markers to women and Native peoples, as well as newer immigrants. Provo city is 19% Latino/Hispanic, the same as the United States, and many neighborhoods are over 40% Latina/o, but often seem erased in the general discussion of our community.
Community Activities and Services
Our family lives in north central Provo near the campus of BYU. We enjoy the access to the Provo city library, transit, recreation, university fine arts and sports, the downtown dining, arts, and festival scene, and drive far less than we did when we lived in a similar college town area in New Jersey. My wife has served on the board of a shelter for women and children and I have been involved in presenting to the Provo City Council, Provo Police, and others on issues of diversity and inclusion.
Economic or Environmental Interests
This is a college town anchored by BYU as well as nearby UVU in Orem, the largest university in the state as far as I know. There are also a number of large companies like Qualtrics, Ancestry.com, and NuSkin, among many others.
Community Needs and Concerns
As a college town, there is sometimes an unspoken assumption that the voices of students should not matter, or at least matter less, but many live here far more than 4-6 years, often putting down roots to work in the tech sector or stay for further graduate study, etc. I think it is vital that Provo and Orem remain in the same district as a cohesive community of interest in terms of this college town metro area.

Primarily, the air quality is my biggest concern, but I'm not crazy about the transportation infrastructure around here. Entirely too much traffic in neighborhoods, not enough trees and green areas interspersed. Also, not enough shopping/services interspersed in neighborhoods. More little shops and services should be interspersed inside neighborhoods to make the areas more walkable and more friendly.

Air quality is an issue. Two of my daughters are asthmatic. I would love to have more days of breathable air

My community is a liberal pocket in Utah. Many of us are Democrats and we feel that our voices are constantly silenced and dismissed. We want our voices to be heard and our votes to count. That’s democracy.

My community should be kept with downtown Salt Lake City, the university of Utah, avenues and sugar house, which are also within Salt Lake City proper.

Tourism, especially the ski industry affects residents here. We are very interested in preserving our canyons, developing walkable and bikable routes in the area, and keeping this area beautiful and peaceful for those who live here--- not just following the dollars.
Community Needs and Concerns
My area has offered greater support to moderate Democratic candidates over the 30 years I've lived here. We aren't pleased with the way the 2010 redistricting process separated us from other areas in the county with similar concerns. MODERATE candidates are SORELY NEEDED to bring ideas forth that the greater proportion of Salt Lake County can get behind. I never thought I'd be campaigning and donating to candidates living 10 minutes away, who I cannot vote for because of these boundaries. The Southeast of Salt Lake County in becoming increasingly diverse. Urban SL County should not be divided between 4 districts that include areas very different from those of urban and suburban SL Co.

Economic or Environmental Interests
Tourism is the main industry, and therefore most jobs are low wage and low benefits, seasonal employment is the norm. The natural environment and wilderness qualities of national parks and public land is the main tourism attraction. However, state and federal agencies responsible for protecting those qualities are grossly under-resourced and cannot adequately protect from over use and abuse.

I belong to the First Unitarian Church, a religious community that largely draws its congregation from neighborhoods near the University of Utah.
Community Activities and Services
My community lives in urban Salt Lake City and has common interests with other SLC neighborhoods. I ride UTA and need good transit connections to connect tothe Universit of Utah, Downtown and the airport. We have chronic problems with air pollution, and an urgent need to protect the Great Salt Lake ecosystem. We shop downtown and often send our kids to schools in the Salt Lake School District, Salt Lake Community College, the U of U or Westminster College.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Nearby outdoor recreation is in the Wastach mountains and foothills, Bonneville Shoreline Trail, Jordan River Trail and public parks. There is an urgent need to protect the Great Salt Lake ecosystem from pollution and developemnt. We have chronic problems with air pollution that will be made worse by irresponsible developement of an "inland port" in the NW of Salt Lake City. Drought, heatwaves and wildfires are affecting quality of life.
Community Needs and Concerns
We need a good transit network to connect the University of Utah, downtown, airport and surrounding neighborhoods. Further development of the inland port needs to be stopped to avoid air pollution, traffic congestion and harm to the Great Salt Lake ecosystem. While politicians boast about the great economy, population growth is rapidly making Salt Lake City unlivable-- housing costs exceed incomes, traffic is getting impossibly bad, poor air quality is impacting public health, and outdoor spaces that used to make Salt Lake City nice are overcrowded and becoming overdevloped by ski areas and such.

We pay high property taxes which keep getting higher having a sustainable way of funding our community and education is important to me.
Community Needs and Concerns
I personally think it's weird that my community is divided into multiple districts given the size, further there seems to be no good reason that we are separated from our neighbors in the next city.

This is one of, if not the most, ethnically diverse communities in Utah. There are many immigrants and asylum seekers in the community, and also many long-term native-born residents. We are very "blue collar", but are seeing the beginnings of gentrification. The majority of the district being rural means that the majority has no idea about the needs of such a diverse community, and the urban component has no idea of rural needs.
Community Needs and Concerns
This is an urban community, with urban concerns. At present, we are combined into a district which is overwhelmingly rural. Rural voters do not understand the needs of urban communities, and urban communities do not understand the needs of rural communities. At present it seems the only elections our votes count for anything are city ones.

Park City gathers outdoors as much as possible, in our parks, at our outdoor concerts, with our dogs whenever possible. We walk/bike/skate/ski to and from as much as possible. Our free bus system is a point of pride & much depended on by our local youth as well as many in our work force. Our favorite "holiday" is LivePC, GivePC, a day dedicated to raising money for our many cherished local non-profits--the perennial favorites being Mountain Trails Foundation, Summit Land Conservancy and Nuzzles & Co (pet adoption).

English is the dominant language, though there are several families of international origin.
Community Activities and Services
My community shops at the Maceys at 5600 S 900 E or the Smith's at 4500 S 900 E. We go to the Murray Costco. For routine healthcare, we go to Cottonwood Medical Center; for emergencies, we go to IMC. We use both the Murray Library and the Holladay Library. We visit Murray Park and parks in Holladay and Cottonwood. Our schools are Spring Lane Elementary and Bonneville Junior High in Granite School District. We regularly donate household items and clothing to Big Brothers Big Sisters in Holladay. We will sometimes shop in Sugarhouse but prefer the Fort Union area for convenience.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community values sustainability. We believe public investments should be made with long term costs and benefits in mind. We feel that open spaces, water, and air are our most valuable assets and must be conserved and protected against aggressive development or recreational interests.
Community Needs and Concerns
Our current district has been engineered to dilute the community-minded interests of my community. We believe in taxation for services and take pride in participating in government and programs for the social good.

My smaller community is a portion of Murray that was annexed from unincorporated county a decade or so ago. It has a somewhat different set of municipal services than the main portion of Murray. From a bit wider perspective, there is a portion of Murray that is currently in HD 46--a district that is primarily comprised of Cottonwood Heights. Our needs are more aligned with Murray and Midvale. From an even wider perspective, Salt Lake County is the major metropolitan county in the state and has unique needs. It should not be split up.
Economic or Environmental Interests
The smaller area is a suburban area.
Community Needs and Concerns
Salt Lake County is currently split into 3 congressional districts. The bulk of my HD is comprised of Cottonwood Heights, but I live in an 'appendage' that is Murray and which thus would be better served if it were kept with Murray and Midvale--the portions west of the VanWinkle and north of I-215.

Cultural or Historical Interests
Downtown Salt Lake City has existed for over a hundred years, for as long as SLC has been a city. It has historically been a very Mormon-dominated city, though it has become more of a multicultural area over time. Gentrification has become a concern, or has been a concern, for some time as people are moving back to urban cities from more suburban areas.
Community Activities and Services
My community is made up of people who live in downtown Salt Lake City. We mostly gather and socialize within the downtown community, though because of the limited area I think our gathering places extend into other communities as well. Because downtown SLC is fairly small, a lot of the services that we use and need are located outside of the downtown community council area on the periphery. School and child care services are located around the area, rather than directly downtown, including most shopping areas.
Economic or Environmental Interests
The service and tourism industries are big for those who live downtown, though I believe they are employed in a wide variety of industries that make up Salt Lake City's and the broader region's base.
Community Needs and Concerns
This may be more relevant for certain types of districts, but thinking through the interconnected nature of downtown Salt Lake City with the rest of its areas, it really seems like the city should be kept together whenever possible.

Cultural or Historical Interests
Most of my community have ancestors that have traveled a long ways to come to Utah in search of a better life, whether that be their parents who immigrated here or their great-great-great grandparents. The majority of folks around here are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or another denomination of Christianity. Many people attend or work for BYU and are thus passionate about life-long learning and service.
Community Activities and Services
My community are students who attend BYU and the local Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Public transportation is everywhere but it's underused because of a lack of convenience and a lack of education on how it can be used effectively. We are passionate about environment issues, especially since we spend most of the year covered in smoke and we have to stare at the eye-sore which is Utah Lake.
Economic or Environmental Interests
For the majority of the year, most residents are students and/or employed by BYU. Those who aren't are usually retired or have a longer commute to get to work outside of Provo.
Community Needs and Concerns
My community needs to learn to use public transportation better. We need to help Utah Lake thrive again to help grow our economy and make Utah Valley a gem of the United States. Most people in my community struggle with the cost of housing and have opted to not buy a home because the price is so steep in comparison to the size and quality of the homes being sold. We largely don't want to live in condos and town homes, but that's all that seems to be getting built recently.

My community of interest is the Salt Lake Valley. Some of the issues we face include, first and foremost air pollution. We are in a unique setting as a valley surrounded by mountains and full of dirty air that we all share and can't escape. This issue is of no or little concern to the rural areas of the state who are lucky enough to be able to breath clean air in most cases. Tied to this is a need for a much more robust public transportation system which would reduce traffic and the huge amount of carbon monoxide emitting vehicles. We also are faced with a problem of affordable housing and shrinking open space, this in turn exacerbates the problems of a growing homeless population.

My community is composed of people who gather to exercise, walk their dogs, and socialize in nearby parks like Liberty Park and Sugarhouse Park, and in the foothills and canyons on the east and southeast side of Salt Lake City.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Housing costs in our city have skyrocketed in recent years, along with property taxes. There is a general housing shortage including for rental units. Air pollution, drought, and heat negatively affect quality of life.
Community Needs and Concerns
The current congressional district lines break up our community. The entire city of Salt Lake City should be in a single district, along with suburbs like Millcreek and Holladay. These areas are a connected community and should be treated as such.

We have a large latinx population who contribute to our economy and live and participate in our community and schools. It is important that they are well-represented and listened to. Affordable housing, access to education, child care and health insurance are important issues that will help our latinx population thrive in our communities.
Community Activities and Services
We are a group of 10 people who live and/or work in the greater Park City area. Our community is affected by the tourist industry and consists of everybody who participates in and works for this and adjacent industries. If it thrives, our community thrives. We feel development pressures and want to handle growth responsibly. It is important that our voice is included in the conversation about how to manage development responsibly. And it is important that we are represented by people who understand the needs of the tourist industry and the challenges of development in a constrained environment and can speak up on this and other issues affecting us.
Economic or Environmental Interests
It would make sense for our community to be linked with other communities who also thrive on the tourism resources such as the national park country, Torrey, Moab, etc. We are interested in addressing climate change as changing climate greatly affects our outdoor tourism resources. We are stewards of our mountains and water and dependent on them for life and livelihood.
Community Needs and Concerns
It is important that we center and focus on equity and ensure that communities from all socioeconomic backgrounds are well represented.

LGBT+ renewable resources voting rights diversity gun control
Cultural or Historical Interests
My community is a mix of elderly, long-time mostly white residents and diverse, younger-first time home buyers. As the older generations of Millcreek pass away it is becoming more and more similar to the east side of Salt Lake city in demographics, needs, and wants. It is an affluent area that is quickly becoming more diverse than in previous decades. I have noticed more push back from older residents when it comes to topics like affordable housing, including safe ADUs while younger residents see the need for such being as close as we are to the employment major centers of SLC.
Community Activities and Services
While there is one larger hospital in my community many also travel to the major centers in the county. This is a primarily residential community with the need for more local gathering places such as parks, cafes, and bars. Public transportation in the community is limited as it is more affluent with most residents owning their own transportation. This makes getting to employment centers more difficult for those with no transportation or those who would prefer mass transit options.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Many of my neighbors are either retired or employed in SLC. This community is primarily residential with very few working within the immediate area. I have noticed that many in my community hold values similar to those in Salt Lake City but were not able to afford or secure housing there. Environmental issues here are similar to those across the Wasatch front with the primary concerns being water conservation and access to renewable energy.
Community Needs and Concerns
With the growth and change in demographics of my community over the past decade I think it is very important to look at what the people want instead of what the political parties want. We clearly have a growing democratic demographic that is mostly un-represented due to district boarders. My community would like to see more equity in the redistricting efforts so that ALL voices can be heard.

Cultural or Historical Interests
The largest common cultural identity is being 'not LDS' - what it means to be a progressive or liberal minority in a majority conservative state. There are many forms of it, but it is always the 'other' here.
Community Activities and Services
My community is composed of people who socialize outside of religious services - often times in local parks, trails and local bars and restaurants. We use I-15 and other highways to commute but largely downtown roads through the greater Salt Lake metropolitan area. Most have cars but a sizable number don't - and use public transportation (trax/buses), or walking (in the downtown area) or bike riding.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is split between those in software/construction, who are largely doing well at the moment and getting by, and many in the service industries - retail or food service, for whom rent and housing are very, very real concerns. I know many people who have to work second or third jobs to make ends meet. All of us are concerned about climate change (see for example this year's horrible air quality due to the fires out west, as well as its record setting heat in June).
Community Needs and Concerns
Doing more for the environment is a large long term concern. Addressing housing demand in the greater Salt Lake area is a major concern. The problems of violence downtown are a concern. The fear/uncertainty of how to help the homeless is a concern.Some of these are national concerns (e.g. climate change, potentially housing) for which my community feels completely unrepresented through Utah's current congressional delegation. The local concerns are largely addressed at the city/county level but often impeded by state level politics.

My community is combined rural and urban. Currently housing and urban sprawl is consuming our urban landscape. I know people need housing but while the sprawl consumes the land our inner city is deteriorating. No plans for green spaces just high density apartments and culda sacs. Developers sit on county commissions and city councils, passing laws that benefit themselves.

My community is small, but we have a library, some parks, a variety of churches/religions, health care offices, a few veterinarian clinics, a good variety of restaurants, and a few hotels. And whatever we don't have is probably a quick 20 minute drive away from us.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is at the entrance to 2 canyons that lead to hiking trails, campgrounds, and 4 ski resorts. Access to and stewardship of our natural areas is important. We also have a lot of dog owners, but no fenced dog parks.
Community Needs and Concerns
We've seen an increase in traffic congestion. We need representation that appreciates our desire to preserve our natural spaces, not develop every open area. Cleaning up what we have instead of adding more is key. Existing public transportation is not ideal, with the exception of ski buses that do get people directly to their destinations. Otherwise, trying to get somewhere (i.e. Cottonwood Heights to downtown SLC) requires lots of transfers and a huge amount of time.

Cultural or Historical Interests
I live in an area of Salt Lake made up of doctors, professors, entrepreneurs, stay at home moms and retirees. While occupations are diverse, the common thread in our neighborhood is largely one of progressive thinking, inclusiveness and conservation. Many of us own historic homes we seek to improve, and a large group of us on my street gather (pre-covid) once a month for a potluck to talk about issues important to us (this is not specific to religious, political or any other demographic...just neighbors). While not very ethnically diverse, visiting professors and health care workers at LDS hospital do offer different perspectives to our community.
Community Needs and Concerns
We live in what is largely considered a "liberal" part of the Salt Lake City, but since the gerrymandering of our district several years ago, we have had zero opportunity for representation on the federal level. I don't take issue with the conservative areas of our state and those who live in rural communities, but our district is lumped in with a large swath of conservative areas such as Davis and Washington Counties, and the rural areas to the west and south of us. The needs and representation of rural and conservative strong holds are very different from the needs of our neighborhood. To segment Salt Lake City and carve up liberal areas makes it impossible for us to have representation.

My community is one of the most diverse in an otherwise very homogenous state. While I am a member of the dominant religion and race, I value that local diversity that is more present where I live and am angered and dismayed when members of my community are largely silenced politically due to gerrymandered districts. I don’t think most members of my religion want those Utahns outside our faith to feel or be bullied politically through devious political machinations like gerrymandering, but that’s the way things are currently, creating a community culture that often is united in opposition to the dominant faith, which it views as its political enemy, and not without some justification.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Because we are an urban area we experience the greatest amount of air pollution in the state. Therefore we feel a greater sense of urgency about passing laws decreasing polluting energy use and increasing clean energy use.
Community Needs and Concerns
My community is the most urban area of Salt Lake Valley and there are concerns about housing affordability and a general desire to solve the housing affordability problem by increasing housing density. Areas outside the urban center are more resistant to doing their part to increase housing density which is increasing the homelessness problem and the number of housed individuals who cannot afford to buy homes. The homelessness issue is far more burdensome in my area than in the less urban areas of the county/state.

Ultimately I think we'd like to see more sustainable growth, housing options that keep prices affordable while maintaining the beautiful aesthetic of the aves. (No cookie-cutter big box apartments). Folks love to walk and explore the avenues and so finding great ways to increase population while keeping our roads safe (Public transit options, walkable communities, etc.)

My community is urban and suburban. Proximity to my neighbors and a large local population means that we all recognize that our actions impact our neighbors more than residents of rural areas. We value zoning regulations and local ordinances and see them as necessary for a peaceful coexistence with our neighbors, not as an infringement of personal freedoms.
Community Needs and Concerns
My community us urban/suburban with strong links to city center/ University. The need for transportation solutions that link these areas more effectively requires shared representation of everyone that shares the infrastructure on a daily basis.

Cultural or Historical Interests
I have lived in Utah since 1979. My children were born and raised here. I am a nonMormon and a Democrat. I expect my government to be ethical and secular. I am not finding the state or federal representatives to be either, except for the rep and senator for Utah state government that represent me.
Community Activities and Services
I feel like the state was divided in a way that heavily favors conservatives. I would like representation, and as Democrats, we have a right to representation that is denied to us through previous gerrymandering.
Economic or Environmental Interests
We need to stop incentivizing business to move to Utah. Utah doesn't have the water or resources to support the growth that has occurred in recent years. Come to visit; not to live. Focus on improving the air in the valley: less industry, less commuting in cars with one driver, more trees planting (the city arborists are terrific!) and enforcing businesses to reduce water usage and air emissions.
Community Needs and Concerns
Ever since Reagan changed our treatment of behavioral health patients in this country, homelessness has skyrocketed. We need incentive programs for businesses to help out: hire those who don't have a permanent address; provide more community mental health services, raise consciousness about homelessness: People aren't on the street because it is fun. And those that avoid the shelters cannot abide by the rules that say they cannot self-medicate there. Alcohol and drugs are how we cope with mental illness when we cannot afford care. We can do better. The stigma associated with those without permanent addresses is dead wrong. Help our citizens, all of them.

Cultural or Historical Interests
My community, and the populace of Salt Lake City in general, is grossly underrepresented in the Utah State Legislature. Decades of cynical gerrymandering by the legislature has divided the more liberal votes up so carefully that despite being barely over half the state, republicans (which in Utah means Mormons) make up 75% of our state level elected officials. This gives them a supermajority which allows them to even override extremely popular public propositions such as medical marijuana and medicaid expansion with no concern about repercussions.
Community Activities and Services
My community is the Lower Avenues. We are mostly single family homes, mostly slightly older families with college age or adult kids who've moved, but mixed with younger families who rent and some college students in apartment buildings.
Economic or Environmental Interests
We value access to public transit and bicycle paths, since parking is at a premium here and we want to reduce our impact. More access to transit especially for the west side of the city and other historically underserved neighborhoods is a high priority to us. We want to be better connected to our west side neighbors.
Community Needs and Concerns
No one I know feels represented by our state legislature. We know it's been gerrymandered to within an inch of its life. Our federal Senatorial elections are also a total joke. the fact that Mike Lee is supposed to represent Salt Lake city is utterly disgusting and he's a national embarrassment.

Cultural or Historical Interests
Sanpete has a history of agriculture and small-scale industry. Celebrating agriculture and cowboy culture is very important to many even as fewer people actually work in ranching and farming. The oldest European settlers were mostly English and Danish and the Scandinavian roots are a constant theme. In recent decades, Latinx people have immigrated, starting with working age men and extending to families. The largest ELL group of schoolkids is Spanish speaking. I feel that there is a very clear divide between 'old settler' stock and Latinos. Also, a very recent immigrant trend is from American Samoa.
Community Activities and Services
Snow College in Ephraim is a center of activity for the whole county. Public schools, especially high schools also host many activities. Traditionally, the LDS church has held the central place for all Sanpete towns, but now there is a growing Catholic presence as well as unaffiliated people.
Economic or Environmental Interests
One of the largest employers is the Central UT prison. Other jobs are in education, agriculture, trucking and mining. The city governments are trying to increase tourism, but I don't think we have much conservation mindedness here. For example, grazing sheep and cattle is considered more important than protecting watersheds. Water demand is also never-ending problem. The cities try to promote households conserving water, but there's no real incentive.
Community Needs and Concerns
Sanpete and Carbon Counties have been arguing over water from the Gooseberry Creek for about a century. I don't know if putting them in the same district would help solve that or just make it worse. Opioids and meth have hit Sanpete hard, like other rural areas. I find it interesting that we also have quite a large "troubled teen" industry. It seems ironic (Is your kid on drugs? Send them to a place with lots of drugs!) I find rural living necessary for my mental health, but apparently it's hard on a lot of people.

Economic or Environmental Interests
Utah is a desert and water is its most valuable resource. Water must be used rationally. The local military base needs to be respectful of the local civilian population and manage noise and EPA compliance. Housing cost too much and young people can not afford to live on their own - many having to live with parents or in groups.
Community Needs and Concerns
The state needs to stop gerrymandering areas to dilute voting populations of other faiths (non-Mormon), ethic (Black, Hispanic, Asian), and political (Democrat). The wrong people are being chosen to run for political office - they are being bought and paid for by out of state donors, political action groups, and lobbyists.. The best people don't run because they are not 'connected'. Affordable healthcare and coverage for those responsible citizens that attempt to take care of themselves, manage preexisting conditions, in good faith pay as best they can for medical insurance, and do not abuse the system by not being vaccinated or using emergency care for minor issues.

Economic or Environmental Interests
We creeks that run through our neighborhoods. There are areas where these creeks are open to the public as nature preserves and parks. An oil pipeline transverses the foothills of the mountains to the east, and we had a pipeline fail - dumping crude oil into Red Butte Creek. With Salt Lake City's emphasis on an outdoor lifestyle, we need to protect and enhance our natural spaces. Many people in our community work from home. Some areas now have more than one choice for high speed internet services. Our older neighborhood is close to or on an active branch of the Wasatch Fault. Our properties are at risk, especially those built of unreinforced masonry.
Community Needs and Concerns
Our Congressional District Includes vast areas with small rural communities that do not have common interests with our urban/suburban community. Our concerns for air quality, transportation, open space access and preservation are not the same as the issues in small communites. Our larger population and greater density makes pandemic response strategies much different here than in small rural communities, yet our representative aligns with the rural population.

Community Activities and Services
My community includes the urban neighborhoods of Salt Lake City, and the fact that we have a shared interest in making the "bones" of a city work well for everyone who lives and visits there. This includes a reduction in the emphasis on roadbuilding and catering to the automobile at the expense of pedestrians, bikes and "living your life" in the city without constantly dealing with traffic, parking and the excessive expense that cars represent. Of course we will still own cars (2), but use them in away that is compatible with a lifestyle . The implication of this non-automotive function is that I support protections and growth boundaries on suburbia before we pave everything under.
Economic or Environmental Interests
The 2 largest challenges that Utah faces are outgrowths of excessive population growth. These challenges are access to adequate water, and clean air. It's unlikely we will ever limit population growth, but we CAN limit where it goes and how it develops. We should not be subsidizing suburban development that creates significant tax liabilities (via infrastructure) for future generations, but instead should be focused on denser development of existing communities, with the addition of public transit. Water access will come from the elimination of uneconomic farming practices, but the farming communities MUST be supported as they transfer away from their current outdated economic models.
Community Needs and Concerns
Communities should be able to be heard by their Representatives without being drowned out by a State-level majority that oppresses all opposition. For example, air quality is a significant concern on the Wasatch Front, and requires regulation of automotive emissions. Yet, this is a non-issue for 20 or so of the 29 Counties in Utah. Districts need to be drawn so that concerns that affect a certain area of the state that share problems, geography or economic interests are grouped. No more 4-district pizza-pie where all 4 congressional districts have a slice of Salt Lake City. Better to have a donut where the rural areas have a shared focus on rural concerns, and the urban area is separate.

My community believes in the healthy active recreation of all our citizens rich or poor. The continued upgrading of our schools and universities need to be designed and configured to ensure the continued development of every person to the fullest potential possible.

Cultural or Historical Interests
Midvale is historically Latino (old Main Street has the nickname of little Mexico). Additionally, my community has a lot of elderly couples, who have lived here for years, mixed with a influx of millennial couples/young families moving into the neighborhood. It is a tight-knit community but faces a lot of change (most optimistic)
Economic or Environmental Interests
We have an explosion of industry growth, which is great other than the influx of people moving into the state, and driving up housing needs. The natural growth rate of utah alone puts ever mounting pressure on housing demands, but coupling that with tech employees swooping in with all cash offers on family homes has hurt working utah families in their housing needs. High density housing has limited success (in terms of family housing) because of lack of public transit and walkability, coupled with lack of adequate parking for family vehicles in already populated neighborhoods. I am interested in local economic development, zoning solutions, and a effective growth of public transit
Community Needs and Concerns
Everyone in the valley suffers from smog and smoke from the valley, surrounding areas, and even other states. The pollution has measurable differences in our health. We need accessible public transit, walkable communities, and access to healthcare in each community (rising house prices pushes many families farther from employment or necessities, contributing to driving pollution).

Community Activities and Services

Economic or Environmental Interests
Salt Lake City really needs to concentrate on renewable energy. My house has solar panels and geothermal heating/cooling and I don't see any reason why every house in the neighborhood shouldn't have that. Climate change is real and we need to concentrate on getting away from fossil fuels. Better public transportation is a big part of that too.

My community is predominantly white and a range of lower to upper middle class. I believe there is religious diversity and people who are relocated to Utah for jobs and higher education. There are walkable neighborhoods, local businesses, and support of arts and libraries. People like to go to restaurants and do outside activities such as biking, walking, running and going to the park. Many of the house have Black Lives Matter signs and other signs showing support of the broad community and diversity.
Community Activities and Services
My community of interest lives in an urban setting and has needs based on that situation such as transportation, housing, need for parks, love of the arts, access to healthcare, access to schools, access to higher education, and jobs. I believe my community desires infrastructure that supports a dense population such as walkable neighborhoods and serious urban planning to help with commuting.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is from the foothills and includes the city, university area and avenues. People are very concerned about the polluted air we breath. Many people ride bikes. I believe people work in the city, at the University, and telecommute. Some probably work along the Wasatch Front. Housing is VERY expensive in my community and traffic is becoming worse as more and more apartments are built without road or transportation infrastructure to support it.
Community Needs and Concerns
My community is an urban area, it is a city with distinct city needs which include a diverse population, transportation, pollution, infrastructure support, poverty, etc. It SHOULD NOT be connected to rural areas that have representatives and populations who do not understand or benefit from solutions that serve and benefit my community. I feel like this is a SIGNIFICANT problem. Representatives from rural areas make decisions for my community that benefit their communities rather than mine -- often their decisions are detrimental to my community.

Both of these counties are neighbors to Utah County, but both have different problems and need different solutions that what Utah County is dealing with. The main issue with our current district lines is the west side of Utah County is being grouped with the west side of Salt Lake County. You're grouping rural, developing, and new communities in Utah County with established, high-density communities up in Salt Lake County. Representatives should be specialized.

We also like to attend urban events: concerts, dance parties. Many of us bicycle commute and use UTA at least some of the time. The majority are done with school and working full-time, unmarried, no kids.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is concerned about air quality. We want more regulation of carbon use and air pollutants.

transportation diversity education environment suburban
Cultural or Historical Interests
My extreme local community (Emigration Cyn) is predominantly white, middle-aged, and affluent. Diversity (in terms of age & ethnicity) is largely priced out of my area. That is unfortunate. I appreciate and support the relatively more diverse population of Salt Lake City proper. It is distressing to me that my US Congressional representation (House no. 2) includes large portions of the state with which I have little in common with.
Community Activities and Services
My community comprises: the roads and trails of Emigration Canyon, the city & county parks in Salt Lake area, the University of Utah (w/ its myriad peoples, needs, and services) as well as University of Utah Health/medical services, public schools, public libraries, and public transportation. Importantly, it also includes the Granite School District, as that is public school district provided to my children and others living in Emigration Canyon. My community activities and concerns have little to do with others in the huge rural areas of Congressional District no. 2. That district does not even include the public schools that my children & others in my area attend.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Emigration Canyon is a suburban area bordering on (relative) wild lands. My concerns here are watershed protection, continued development that the infrastructure (water, roads, septic) cannot support, protection of open spaces and trails, and wildfire. There is no public transportation available. Air quality in the Salt Lake valley is deteriorating. My economic concerns include skyrocketing real estate costs, such that young people cannot invest in a home in Salt Lake City/County. My family shops, attends school, & participates in activities along the East Bench of the county, which is divided into 3 different USCongressional districts.
Community Needs and Concerns
It is distressing to me that my Congressional district, no. 2, cuts Salt Lake County into parts. We are the major urban/suburban area in Utah, yet the valley is divvied up between THREE house districts. The needs of my community, including its schools (Granite School District), are not well represented in Congress. Emigration Canyon community is outside the boundary of SLCity, yet we rely on City roads, stores, health services, etc. My State Board of Ed district (#7) also does not include the schools my kids attended (#8), which has made it difficult for me to know who on the BofEd I should communicate with regarding my concerns.

Cultural or Historical Interests
My community (central Wayne County including the communities of Teasdale, Torrey, Capitol Reef National Park) share a common interest in the conservation and protection of the surrounding landscape, including Capitol Reef National Park, Boulder Mountain, the San Rafael Swell, and Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. To a significant degree, these interests are not shared by the residents of other areas of Wayne County.
Community Activities and Services
My community consists of all the residents of the residents of Wayne County living in the area between the Red Gate (west of Torrey) and the eastern boundary of Capitol Reef National Park. The residents of this area are focused on recreational opportunities in the area surrounding Capitol Reef National Park, and on the conservation of the surrounding landscape.
Economic or Environmental Interests
The economic engine of my community (Teasdale, Torrey, Capitol Reef National Park) is tourism and visitor services. Revenues generated by these activities, and by property taxes paid by residents of this area, are the economic pillar of the entire county. A major problem for my community is the lack of affordable housing (or any housing) for workers in the tourism sector. However, political power is centered in the communities of the Upper Valley (Loa, Fremont, Bicknell, Lyman) where agriculture and ranching are viewed as the only proper lifestyles for county residents. As a result of this division, the interests of my community, central Wayne County, are generally ignored.
Community Needs and Concerns
Voting districts for the county commissioners need to be changed to ensure that at least one county commissioner is elected from my community, central Wayne County. For many decades, all county commissioners have been elected from the Upper Valley communities.

My community is a mix of all religions, ethnic groups, age groups. This has just been in the last few years though. It was 20 years ago primarily all white LDS families.
Community Activities and Services
My community is surrounded by tons of stores but only one tiny library and a run down community center. We have a few well maintained parks, UOFU greenwood clinic.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Economical we are East and West, this means, the east all have jobs that pay over minimum wage. The West is primarily Hispanic low income families living in a community of nothing but run down houses and apartments. No community center for these kids to go to, no free mentor-ship programs. Good people working several jobs at low wages while the children are raising the children because they parents can't afford the ridiculous costs of daycare.
Community Needs and Concerns
We need less freaking store and apartments. Make housing affordable. My house could have easily recently sold for 500-550K. A house I bought 23 years ago for 175k. I couldn't even afford to live in my home and I have what I thought was a good paying job. We need a real community center for the kids, one that has actual activities besides basketball. Mentoring programs, a safe zone. Someone that actually cares.

My community if full of many people from all over the world who have moved here for economic opportunity or to be close to the mountains, these are people who have come to this Valley to find a home among other travelers. My community is proud to be the most racially and ethnically diverse community in the state, we celebrate all cultures, all races, all genders, all sexual oreintations, and all ways of being. We acknowleldge that we live on the stolen land of the Goshute and Eastern Shoshone people.
Community Activities and Services
People in my community social in city parks, in neighborhood bars and restaurants, in backyards, and perhaps most importantly in the Canyons of the Wasatch Front. People access services through community organizations, public libraries and other public access points, and through access to alternative travel like TRAX, bike paths, and skating.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Residents are employed in caretaking, nursing, service industry, restaurants, tourism, recreation, non-profit, and online retail industries, and real estate. Environmental concerns in my neighborhood include poor air quality and poor city planning/land use policies that encourage luxery housing instead of affordable housing. We are also tired of the lack of action on emmissions reduction and need to plan for climate change resilience as the summers get hotter and smokier.
Community Needs and Concerns
My community is so very tired of being ignored and we have a legitimate grievance for being gerrymandered out of our rightful, proportional representation in federal government. This state's practice of gerrymandering is toxic to our democracy and poisons the will of good people to want to engage in a system that systemactically supresses their vote.

Community Activities and Services
My community is part of the City of North Salt Lake but we are separated by a large industrial area that spans between the 1-15 freeway and Redwood Road from the rest of the city proper. We have a very popular community park with access to the Legacy Parkway. There are a mix of single-family homes, condos, and apartments in the community, as well as numerous elementary schools. We're on a bus route but otherwise have to rely on cars to get into the city, or ride a bike to the closest Frontrunner station in Woods Cross.
Economic or Environmental Interests
The Legacy Parkway (aka Jordan River Parkway), Legacy Nature Preserve, and greater Salt Lake wetlands area are immediately adjacent to our neighborhood, so conservation of the natural environment, and limiting damage and disruption from industrial sources and heavy transportation, is extremely important. Lifting the truck ban along the Legacy freeway was intensely unpopular here. The commercial and industrial interests around our community often drown out the voices of the people who actually live here.
Community Needs and Concerns
We're right on the cusp of Salt Lake County and Davis County, and often feel like an isolated oasis because we're on the "wrong side of the tracks" amidst a lot of industrial polluters and eyesores. We want to be a safe, eco-conscious neighborhood that doesn't get paved over (literally in some cases) by industrial forces with deeper pockets.

Urban Salt Lake City is more affluent, educated, professional, and ethnically diverse than any other area of Utah. The state's dominant religious biases apply here to significantly less degree. We're dedicated to preserving a tolerant, open community for all minorities and the LGBTQ+ among us. The demands of urban living draw us to proactive, cooperative, problem solving as needed, not as bound by static status quo.
Community Activities and Services
My community is urban Salt Lake City.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is interested in clean air and water, access to pristine public lands, and the preservation of untrammeled wilderness. We want to reduce urban sprawl, advance bicycle infrastructure, create viable public transit, transition to battery electric vehicles, and solve problems of the unhomed community. We don't want to sell our public lands for oil or mining exploitation by the company most able to buy and sell politicians.
Community Needs and Concerns
My urban community is concerned by our historical under-representation: Urban Salt Lake is absurdly gerrymandered among all four of our state's congressional districts. Under this unnatural system, political power lies in rural communities that share few needs, concerns, interests, or community identity with Urban Salt Lake City. Urban SLC is concerned with mitigating Covid-19 (vaccination, masking, social distancing, and vaxx passports); with preserving a social safety net; with ensuring easy access to the ballot box for all communities, ethnic groups, and minorities. Urban SLC is concerned with managing our highest-in-nation growth.

Cultural or Historical Interests
Most of the neighborhoods in my community are older neighborhoods that likely share a high-level of education, an interest in outdoor recreation, and community improvement. Unlike other parts of the state, the religious makeup of my community is unlikely to be majority Mormon.
Community Activities and Services
My immediate community is made up of graduate students who attend the University of Utah and the surrounding community is made up of relatively affluent white-collar citizens with an interest in culture, education, and outdoor recreation.
Economic or Environmental Interests
A substantial proportion of my community either attends or works at the University of Utah. Because we all share Salt Lake City, there is a significant concern about air quality and the decreasing length and amount of our annual snowfall (which hampers the ski season). I think we share a desire for access to clean, outdoor spaces.
Community Needs and Concerns
Federally, I am represented by the same person who represents Saint George while many of my friends and co-workers whose houses I can drive to in 5 minutes are represented by someone else. It's bizarre. My broader community has been sliced and diced so that we are split up and not represented by people who share our same values. At the state level, our current borders seem to do a good job at keeping my immediate community together and represented by people who share out values.

Cultural or Historical Interests
Historically Layton was a suburb/farming interface. We still have many farms and fruit orchards in Layton, both on the east and west side of Layton. However, more of this farming land is being developed for housing. Culturally, we are a melting pot thanks to Hill AFB. Our neighborhood is one of affordable housing. Most of it seems to be homeowners, with probably 30% of homes having renters. Income levels tend to be lower middle class.
Community Activities and Services
My community is made up of people who send their kids to Davis School District. We recreate at Layton Commons Park. We have a decent amount of people who utilize the UTA Frontrunner to head into downtown and Ogden to work, though we have a large population who work at Hill Air Force Base. Otherwise, many people commute outside of Layton for work.
Economic or Environmental Interests
We are a military community with Hill AFB nearby. Many civilians work here, and military servicepeople live in our city. We have some agricultural interests, and the only mall in Davis County.
Community Needs and Concerns
West and Central Layton tends to be made up of younger families, with East Layton being made of more affluent middle age to older Utahns. Because the agriculture is interspersed with suburban interface, it would make sense to keep Layton all in one district. It would likely be most suited to be in a district with Syracuse, then maybe Kaysville, as Syracuse is more similar to Layton in its makeup. There is a fierce community pride in Layton, so dividing the city would not be wise. There is mixed concern over housing. Many say we need to stop building such dense housing/apartments and want to preserve green and open spaces or build single family homes.

Santaquin is a city in Utah and Juab counties. It is a small community under 10,000 people. It has limited shopping (with only a small grocery store until just recently). The Santaquin area has approximately 3,600 acres of functioning agricultural farms and businesses.
Economic or Environmental Interests
The United States Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), with Santaquin City as the project sponsor, in 2019 proposed to partially fund watershed protection measures through the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act. The work proposed within the Santaquin Watershed include measures to 1) prevent flood damages, 2) further the conservation, development, utilization, and disposal of water, and 3) further the conservation and proper utilization of land.

I consider all of the Salt Lake valley to be my community in the sense that the city and country share the concerns of urban dwelling and enjoy the concomitant cultural opportunities. Salt Lake City has attracted likeminded people who prefer to live among diversity and heterogeneity as opposed to the more insular rural counties, or the homogeneous communities like Davis & Utah counties. Salt lake county is unique in the state with its larger ethnic and LGBTQIA+ populations, and diversity of religious affiliations.
Community Activities and Services
My community is my neighborhood on the southeast side of Salt Lake City, in the foothills area, the Foothill Dr corridor from I80 up to 800 South and includes my church community. It extends west to state street encompassing all of sugar house.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Salt Lake City is the financial center of Utah and the gateway to the rest of the state. The surrounding mountains create a discreet ecological area that faces unique issues of congestion, air pollution, homelessness, crime and poverty, transportation and infrastructure that rural counties and “bedroom/commuter” areas like Utah and Davis county don’t share.

July 10, 2021
Cultural or Historical Interests
This area is more diverse than most parts of our state, but still predominantly European/White and English-speaking. Religion is mixed. Age groups vary broadly. We have older people aging at home, and young families. We also have a very nice senior living residence that includes assisted living and memory care. Or downtown area has its roots in what I would call industrial times and has evolved from production to retail. Most housing is old construction. Earliest being mid-century. Preservation of the old-looking character of our homes and buildings, even if they are brand new, is important to us. So are smaller sizes of homes/apartments. We are mostly outdoorsy.
Community Activities and Services
Within walking distance of my house, we have two parks (one includes a community garden), two creeks, a crossroads small store/restaurant area (1500 south, 1500 east), and a neighborhood "downtown" district that is mixed retail, restaurants, apartment living, healthcare, and a library. We can walk to numerous grocery stores and drug stores. Walkability and alternative transportation are very important to our area. We support small local businesses over box-store-type retail stores and restaurants. We can walk to a trolly line that will connect us to a light rail that can get us to the airport easily. It's easy to get to schools, churches, and the University is an easy bus ride away.
Economic or Environmental Interests
We are located near two creeks, some small trails, and some decent biking areas. An easy 20-minute drive into the wilderness. Most people in my neighborhood have a high appreciation for our natural surroundings and are actively engaged in things like skiing, biking, fishing, hiking, boating, camping, climbing, etc. Work/life balance is good here. Commute times are short, and leisure time is a priority. I believe the area is mostly economically sound. There's very little turnover in small businesses in the area as businesses are intentionally well-supported by the locals. (If we sense one is in trouble, we will rally to support.)
Community Needs and Concerns
I think there are several issues of immediate concern in our area: 1) Maintaining the old, unique, character of our housing as much as possible. I don't think people are at all opposed to affordable housing, but highrise buildings, esp. one's out of character from the 30s/40s/50s style, are destructive to our charm. 2) Improving air quality and water quality/supply. Lately, there is strong interest in re-landscaping to eliminate thirsty planting, there is strong interest in solar programs to reduce our carbon footprint. There is a strong overall desire to explore alternatives to coal, oil, gas, due to global warming and air quality issues. 3) affordable housing 4) wilderness preservation.

Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is filled with folks who treasure the out of doors. Access to public trails in the foothills is part if our daily lives. We are concerned with continued development in the area, further encroaching on public lands and a healthy environment for animals. We live near Foothill Blvd, which has seen a significant increase in traffic as it is a connector from I-215 to the University of Utah. Crossing Foothill on foot or bicycle to access grocery stores, etc in/around Foothill Village is very dangerous and a concern for many.

July 9, 2021
Community Needs and Concerns
My community is the Avenues and University of Utah neighborhood but Salt Lake City writ large. Our current district boundaries slice the city into several sections and make it hard for me to feel like my votes for inclusivity, access to services, economic equality, fairness, and equitable policy making do not count.

Cultural or Historical Interests
My community is an urban community, living in close neighborhoods. We know our neighbors, and share similar political, economical and cultural interests.
Community Activities and Services
My community leans very heavily Democratic, as with the majority of Salt Lake City proper residents, yet we get grouped with farmers and ranchers in the south and central Utah who don’t share same concerns or resources. Our group is represented by someone in Congress who won’t even give us a town hall, but does to the farmers/ranchers further south. We want to be represented by someone who represents US.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is located near Research Park and Emigration Canyon. We are outdoor enthusiasts; hikers and bikers, parents and dog owners, who appreciate the many gifts we have in our backyards. We want to preserve what’s left of our open space, not develop every square inch possible.
Community Needs and Concerns
My community is located near Research Park and Emigration Canyon. We are outdoor enthusiasts; hikers and bikers, parents and dog owners, who appreciate the many gifts we have in our backyards. We are, however, continuing to get more and more trapped in our neighborhood by the traffic pouring into the city north on Foothill Drive into the U, Research Park, and accessing downtown each morning and the reverse each day at 5pm. They cut through our neighborhoods to try to get out of the main flow of traffic, often missing stop signs as we walk dogs and kids to school bus stops. We love our area, but the traffic is getting unbearable yet the UofU is planning on extensive growth.

Community Activities and Services
My neighborhood is walkable with small shops and restaurants close by. We have very good amenities -- close to the UofU and Westminster and all they can offer, a major hospital with several clinics within easy access.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is urban with a strong neighborly feel. Many are educated professionals or retired professionals. I would guess the average income is higher than the state as a whole. Many are concerned about unsustainable growth and protecting the environment if yard signs are an indication.
Community Needs and Concerns
Salt Lake City has been gerrymandered so that our vote is split into more conservative districts. Salt Lake County doesn't even have a national representative who lives in Salt Lake County.

Economic or Environmental Interests

My community is the city of Millcreek, which incorporated since the last redistricting. As a result, it's really important that our city boundaries be respected by district lines.
Community Activities and Services
My community includes the local shops nearest my house, as far east as Canyon Rim and as far west as Brickyard, as far north as I-80 and as far south as Holliday.
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is at the mouth of Millcreek Canyon, which draws a lot of natural recreation tourism, but is also a key source of water for my community.
Community Needs and Concerns
Because my community incorporated into a city recently, a primary need is for our new municipal boundaries to be respected so that our entire city can make its voice heard to as few officeholders as possible.

Community Activities and Services
My community is made up of people who attend the University of Utah, who visit the Corinne & Jack Sweet Branch public library, who work at/receive health care from the LDS Intermountain Healthcare Hospital, who worship at the Cathedral of the Madeleine, who attend Ensign Elementary School, who attend The Avenues Preschool, who ride the UTA #6 bus, the #3 bus, and the #11 bus. My community is also made up of people who frequent Lindsey Gardens Park, 11th Avenue Park & shop at Smiths on 6th Avenue
Economic or Environmental Interests
My community is made up of many small businesses, restaurants, and schools like the Avenues Proper, Hatch Family Chocolates, Cafe on 1st, the Straw Market, Publik Coffee Roasters, Wildwood, Cucinas, Saffron Valley, West Farmers Market, Cafe Shambala, the Kura Door, Fire Station 4, Wasatch Elementary School, the Madeleine Choir School, the Salt Lake City Cemetery, Mt. Calvary Catholic Cemetery, Jack Mormon Coffee Roasting, and the Ronald McDonald House. Our community struggles with air quality.
Community Needs and Concerns
The Avenues is most connected to the greater Salt Lake City area. The Greater Avenues area should be kept in a single district. We are also connected to other nearby communities like Federal Heights, and downtown Salt Lake. Our current congressional representation is not representative of our community's values.

Cultural or Historical Interests
Our community is a mix of older homes, commercial districts, and new apartment units. Many of the home owners in the community are distressed about the shift to more commercial and multifamily dwellings, if what I read on Next Door is accurate. The community council is trying to balance the quaint and quirky spirit of the community with the needs of a larger population.
Community Activities and Services
My community is in the midst of a big population boom. We have apartments going up everywhere! More people means more need for public transit and commercial services. Right now it's a very walkable space with a newly updated library, a streetcar, a nature trail for biking and walking, and two parks.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Because of the dramatic increase in population transit is the topic of discussion everywhere. Whether it's traffic, air pollution, or safety concerns it's a unifying topic.

They go to the University of Utah for school and sports games. They seek health services at Planned Parenthood and the University of Utah Hospital.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Residents in my community are usually employed in large private corporations, small businesses, hospitals, educational institutions like universities, and we also have a large unemployment problem.
Community Needs and Concerns
Our districts are too large. Some districts are smaller than others. The larger districts are made up of counties that are very different in culture and environment. Their problems are very different and shouldn't be in the same district. Many issues are being looked over because these districts are too big.

Community Activities and Services
The Park City School District is a distinct community of interest - many who choose to live here specifically choose to live within the school district. Our children are the center of our community and much of community life revolves around school sports and activities.
Economic or Environmental Interests
Important community members that drive the economy of the greater Park City area live outside of the municipal boundaries. The entire Snyderville Basin and many of his neighborhoods are home to service workers, transportation workers, teachers, public servants and resort workers. The Park City School District encompasses these outlying neighborhoods in addition to Park City proper, and deserves to be kept together when drawing political boundaries
Community Needs and Concerns
We are a resort community that is an important driver of tourism in the state year-round. We are concerned with environmental issues that may affect our snowpack in the future, with ensuring our children receive a top-notch education, and with ensuring that our community has a meaningful voice in the state legislature.

Avenues SLC

Utah Community Maps
May 3, 2021
Cultural or Historical Interests
I like that my community has a mix of single family homes and apartments. People here tend to be older, and almost all the houses here are older unreinforced masonry buildings (URMs) at risk of collapsing in a big earthquake (although they're really beautiful.) House size tends to be smaller, with very limited yard space, so everyone relies a lot on parks and shared outdoor spaces. The area is predominately white, and not LDS. There are several older churches in the area.
Community Activities and Services
I live in the Avenues, which is pretty cohesive as a neighborhood-- everything north of South Temple and east of State street. There is the LDS hospital, memory grove park, trails on 18th Ave, and the dog park at Lindsey Gardens and the SLC Cemetery. There's also a central grocery store-- the Smiths on 6th Ave.
Economic or Environmental Interests
I think most people work downtown. Living on an incline, the upper Aves is usually much less affected by Utah's winter inversions. But the lower Aves gets the smog.
Community Needs and Concerns
Housing prices are crazy expensive so people who live here in apartments can never afford to buy a house in the area. As I said earlier, dealing with URMs and taking care of older buildings is a unifying concern.
