Show Box cfer supports causeway TREMONTON The Box Elder County Commission has thrown its support behind legislation to repair the causeway across the Great Salt Lake between Syracuse and Antelope Island. The bill, sponsored by Rep. Nancy Lyon, R-Bountiful, is before the state House of Representatives. It calls for $5 million from the general fund and $9.2 million in general obligation bonds to be used in upgrading the causeway and improvements on Antelope Island State Park. Commissioner Frank Nishiguchi said he didn't realize what the island had to offer until he traveled out there and saw the buffalo, beaches and a historic farm. |
