Neighborhoods

The South Salt Lake Department of Neighborhoods aims to build a stronger community and improve quality of life. Through our programs and services, we meet people where they are and help neighbors develop a stronger sense of place, build closer ties, and engage with their community and city government. The department was created in 2021 in response to many residents stating that safe, clean, and fun neighborhoods were their top priority. Mayor Cherie Wood united a variety of services, outreach, and communication with the sole purpose of creating better neighborhoods.

A strong city is built of neighbors who feel a strong sense of belonging and sense of place. Neighbors trust one another and their city government when they can take part in shaping their community. 

The Department of Neighborhoods focuses on the things that strong neighborhoods need: beautiful green spaces, walkability, animal services, street lighting, clean neighborhoods, placemaking and so much more. The key to all of this is communication, and our outreach team is here to ensure residents are involved in their neighborhoods. The department includes:

• Parks 
• Facilities 
• Urban Design
• Code Enforcement 
• Animal Services
• Arts Council
• Urban Forestry
