KSL Radio/Television: Vote Yes for Prop. 3


KSL Radio/Television join a lengthy list of business, government, education, environmental, medical, news media and other organizations in endorsing Proposition 3 in Salt Lake County. Some excerpts from KSL’s editorial:

“Salt Lake County voters should not let the absence of a specific listing of priority projects scuttle a rare opportunity to do something truly significant for the future of transportation along the Wasatch Front.

“… while specifics may be lacking, there’s much more promise than apprehension that the money will be used as intended for adding critical TRAX lines, building Commuter Rail through the valley, and acquiring land for highway projects.

“The bottom line is this: each of the projects is integral to preventing gridlock and increasing mobility as the population grows, and ultimately, each will be built. Better to pass Proposition 3 now in order to accelerate the construction process, than to reject the measure and pay much more later on for what inevitably will be.”
