Salt Lake City says it will force the owner of the Fifth Ward meetinghouse to restore it after an unauthorized partial demolition on Easter Sunday.
The remains of the Fifth Ward meetinghouse on 300 West in Salt Lake City, Monday, April 1, 2024. Salt Lake City says it will force the owner of the building to restore it after an unauthorized partial demolition on Easter Sunday.
In this case, Otto added, that would mean restoring the portion of the vacant building that was destroyed, although city attorneys are researching how much time they will give the owner before fines begin. County records, meanwhile, list the site’s owner as a Salt Lake City firm called 300 W Holdings, which was registered in December with Atkin as its manager.
Christensen said he had worked for Atkin, who is listed as president and owner of TAG SLC, on several previous jobs and had no reason to believe the required city approvals had not been obtained. When Christensen was confronted by city workers at the site on Easter Sunday, he said he assumed Atkin “would go down there and straighten it out.”
