Item 1: Josh Rebollo Salt Lake City Mayor’s Office

Salt Lake City is hosting the UN Civil Society conference next week, expect road closures and some traffic changes. The city is looking for more crossing guards at schools. The new high frequency bus line routes are now in operation. Residents are encouraged to use the SLC Mobile App (iPhone download or Android download) to report homeless encampments and other community issues. 

Item 2: Detective Eldon Oliver Salt Lake City Police Department

The police department is aware of the numerous hom camps along the JR Parkway and continues to address the problem one camp at a time. They will place emphasis on the camp at the Bend-in-the-River site. Detective Oliver will find out what has happened to the Westside bike squad, we are not seeing patrols. 17 out of 29 officers have been moved to other units.

The RV parking on 1700 S is difficult to police because of the 48 hour allowance to park. Pole mounted 360‘ cameras are being used (temporarily relocated downtown for conference next week). Residents are encouraged to register bikes online with the Salt Lake City Police Department.
