Yesterday we got the incredible opportunity to celebrate the grand opening of Platform 1500 Apartments, 60 new affordable homes in Salt Lake City's Ballpark neighborhood!

Thank you to Deputy Mayor Catherine Kanter for representing the County, and congratulations to all the partners, funders, builders, and service providers who brought this project to life.

Sixty families and individuals will soon call Platform 1500 home. This is what incredible housing partnerships looks like. 🏢❤️

💡 Your sprinkler timer doesn't know if it rained last night. A smart controller does.

WaterSense-labeled smart irrigation controllers automatically adjust watering schedules based on local weather, soil type, and plant needs.

They can significantly reduce outdoor water waste without any extra effort on your end. Salt Lake County residents may qualify for rebates on qualifying controllers.
