The 'Wasatch Canyons Tomorrow' process is your opportunity to help update Salt Lake County’s 1989 Wasatch Canyons Master Plan. This plan guides land‐use policy for City Creek, Emigration, Red Butte, Parleys, Millcreek, Big Cottonwood, and Little Cottonwood Canyons. The canyons provide more than 50% of Salt Lake City’s water supply, and significantly add to the quality of life for residents of the Salt Lake Valley. With the doubling of the county’s population in the next 30 years, Wasatch Canyons Tomorrow will strive to ensure the long‐term health of these treasured canyons, balancing land‐use, transportation, and environmental concerns.

Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, and the State of Utah are the principal sponsors of the Wasatch Canyons Tomorrow process. Envision Utah is facilitating data collection and public participation. The U.S. Forest Service is a supportive partner and providing technical assistance.

Educational workshops will inform the public about canyon issues. Attendees will use fun interactive keypad polling to answer survey questions. Workshops will begin at 6:30 p.m.

To RSVP, contact canyons@envisionutah.org.

Starting May 7th, you can complete an important survey on the canyons at www.wasatchcanyons.slco.org.

F.I.D.O.S.

The MILLCREEK F.I.D.O.S. (Friends Interested in Dogs and Open Space) are a group of concerned individuals who have joined together to help secure off-leash areas for companion dogs and their owners in the Salt Lake County area. F.I.D.O.S. works with local governments and regulatory agencies to secure and maintain off-leash areas.

We hope to help dog owners locate areas where they can legally enjoy life in the outdoors with the four-legged members of their family, and hope to help the public understand and participate in the politics affecting these areas that we all love to visit with our dogs. We offer assistance to those who wish to suggest locations for future off-leash areas, and we ask that the public keep us informed of new issues regarding off-leash areas, and coordinate volunteer efforts to maintain the safety and cleanliness of areas that have already been set aside for us.

He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion. - Unknown Author
