My community is residential Salt Lake City. We live near the 9th and 9th business area, but we spend a lot of time in University, Sugarhouse, Liberty, and Downtown Salt Lake City areas. Our community values education and social justice. We value clean air. We want dramatic action to counter antropogenic climate change.
My community is eclectic, with a broad range of ages, and religions. Our proximity to the University of Utah and Westminster College tends to attract people from other areas of the country and the world. Our neighborhoods have older historic houses and community buildings, and we want to preserve that history.
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.
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.
