Salt Lake County Council OKs $3.4 million to enhance Shoreline Trail access
On Tuesday, the Salt Lake County Council created another access option by approving a $3.4 million land purchase in Cottonwood Heights.
The purchase includes two parcels: a half-acre residential parcel that will be developed as a trailhead and a five-acre lot currently zoned for office buildings that will be used for a park and restrooms.
Cottonwood Heights will chip in $500,000 for development the trailhead and spend an additional $475,000 in engineering, inspection and ongoing maintenance costs.
The purchase was funded by a 2006 voter-approved $48 million bond.
