Comment Script:

Hello, SLC Council. My name is XXX, and I am a resident of XXX.

I am here today because [briefly explain why affordable housing matters to you personally or to your community].

The Wasatch Assembly has brought you a clear set of demands developed by people in our community. We are asking our local governments to:

  1. No homelessness sweeps.

  2. Adopting WALC’s Expanding Housing Options Plan

  3. Property Tax for Affordable Housing and Homelessness Services

I believe Salt Lake City has a responsibility to build an affordable future for our community. There has not been enough of a focus on affordability within the city council.

My top priority policies of WAs agenda are:

[pick 3-4]

  • Nomad Alliance Safe Parking Site

  • Add Functional 0 count change to PIT

  • Camping allowances for unhoused community members

  • Office for landlord + tenant mediation

  • Security Deposit Regulation

  • Percent of local property tax to local tribes

  • Villages (transitional housing) for homeless

  • $1,000 monthly stipend to homeless individuals

  • No junk fees for apartment complexes

  • Ban Realpage

  • Transparency and justification for rental increases

You were elected to represent the people who live here. We are here as those people, asking you to listen, respond, and act. Thank you.
