The Sandy City Council has absolutely no moral compass. This is not about sandy being able to grow, it is about sandy growing in a manner that is completely inappropriate due to the impacts that cannot possibly be mitigated by the developer or the citizens of Sandy, but would require State funding and therefore impact every other needed road or mass transit project througout the entire state. How would you feel if funding additional I-15 interchanges resulted in the Mountain View Corridor being delayed, or the southern arm of frontrunner or the I-15 south rebuild (which was just funded). Having to put the interchanges on tier two or three list of improvements means that the project could be built 15-30 years prior to any transportation improvements being made. I seriously doubt that the 100,000 residents of Sandy want to wait in traffic for that long.
Cololi: You said it much better than I could. Well done. Thank you.
