Quotable: What is Rocky's legacy?
"Whether it was revitalizing downtown or hosting the 2002 Winter Olympics, Rocky approached every issue with passion and fortitude in an effort to make Salt Lake City ever better." Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr.
"As his term draws to a close, we wish Mayor Anderson well. We have enjoyed our working relationship with him over the past few years and appreciate his enthusiasm and vision for making Salt Lake City a great place to live and conduct business. We share his love for this great city and its residents." Bishop H. David Burton, presiding bishop of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
"I think his legacy will be one that he really believed in opening people's eyes to allowing diversity in our community." Lane Beattie, president and CEO, Salt Lake Chamber
"When you talk to people (about Anderson's legacy), the first thing out of their mouths is that we now have orange flags (at crosswalks). It's an interesting legacy." Carlton Christensen, Salt Lake City Council member
