SALT LAKE CITY — Ifalame Motuliki has lived in the Glendale neighborhood for more than 40 years. When Raging Waters closed in 2018, he was devastated.In the past four years, he’s watched dozens of homeless people take over the abandoned park.Salt Lake City is moving forward with its plans to build the Glendale Regional Park.Public Lands is hoping that Phase One will be open to the public in April of 2024.
"We really want this part to be neighborhood-centric, celebrating the community, while also being kind of a citywide destination," said Kat Maus with Public Lands. The final park design, now available to the public, is based on what Public Works heard from its community engagement surveys. It also includes climbing features, a skating ribbon and skate park, picnicking areas, and a riverside beach with sand volleyball.
Motuliki wishes the park could open earlier than 2024, but he and his neighbors are thrilled to have solid plans from the city and something to look forward to, he said.Public Works will next appear before a planning commission and request feedback and recommendation for adoption to City Council, most likely by the end of the year.
