Provo will keep Bridal Veil Falls tourist spot public land

PROVO, Utah (AP) — The Provo Municipal Council has voted for a resolution to keep the Bridal Veil Falls, a popular tourist attraction, public land. The approval on Tuesday came as reports circulated indicating that developer Richard Losee was angling to privatize the land to build a drug treatment center. Losee is the owner of Cirque Lodge, an addiction recovery center in Orem. The scenic views at the falls and its proximity to area parks and the Sundance Mountain Resort make it a common tourist destination. County officials have discussed whether the area would be better operated by public officials or private owners since the county bought the land in 2015.
