“We are making this happen. Not one of us. All of us together,” Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall said at a news conference.
to build 1,078 new affordable dwellings across six counties, Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall wants to create hundreds of additional units for low-income residents and for unsheltered single adults — all in time for spring.
Using the former Salt Lake County library is expected to add 100 beds to more than 240 beds to be made available for winter overflow between St. Vincent de Paul and flexible capacity at the region’s existing resource centers for the unsheltered. “This is what cooperative work in government looks like,” the Salt Lake City mayor said, calling it “an incredibly significant step. ... I’m grateful for such a massive step forward.”
The council has a Sept. 20 public hearing scheduled on the mayor’s expedited request, with grants potentially available within a couple of months. “We’ve seen nonprofits who have gone out and purchased them, or private developers who have purchased them,” he said, “and a few of them have really focused on deeply affordable, permanent supportive housing options.”
Salt Lake County Mayor Jenny Wilson discusses the plans for overflow shelters and transitional housing during a news conference on Tuesday, Sept. 13, 2022.
