(Salt Lake City, UT) — The Utah Inland Port Authority board is moving forward with plans to create a new infrastructure district that will issue bonds for future projects. The authority voted 9-2 yesterday to create the new district. The board also approved issuing 150-million-dollars in bonds to pay for construction projects related to the inland port. The vote was originally scheduled for last month, but the board’s executive director delayed the decision because of objections by environmentalists and Salt Lake City officials. The measure now goes to the Lieutenant Governor’s Office for approval.
