SLC Council grants waiver allowing Pizzerium across from Liberty Park to apply for liquor license (abc4.com) — Salt Lake City Council has approved a waiver letting Via Veneto Pizzarium, across from Liberty Park, apply for a beer and wine license under Utah's updated distance rules.

(ksl.com) — Salt Lake City's weekly 999 Ride is drawing hundreds of cyclists and growing concerns about safety, property damage, and traffic conflicts. Riders, city staff, and police just met to explore solutions, from better role models and routes to possible city support, while trying to preserve the ride's grassroots, community feel.
3. Families displaced after Salt Lake City water main break seek answers about nearby construction (fox13now.com) — A major Salt Lake City water main break near 500 South and Emery Street flooded 15 homes, displaced several families, and left a large crater while investigators examine any link to nearby bridge construction. Residents are scrambling for housing and financial help as insurance coverage falls short, gas remains off in some homes, and the city reviews damage claims without yet offering temporary housing.
