Salt Lake County soon could see once-in-a-generation spending on affordable housing, aid for the homeless, water conservation and more.

“While Salt Lake County’s economy is strong ... we still see challenges with intergenerational poverty,” the mayor said, adding that wage gaps for retail, hospitality and other essential workers widened during the pandemic.

“We owe it to future generations, to our children, to our grandchildren,” she said, “to provide for them the quality of life we’ve had.” Along with water infrastructure, the mayor plans to steer a $38 million toward deferred maintenance. Additional projects would include remodeling the Kearns Senior Center and the Glendale area’s, repairing canals for flood control, replacing a jail elevator and enhancing security at the district attorney’s office.
