Show A-17 The Park Record Sat/Sun/Mon/Tues, March 11-14, 2017 Sotheby’s reaches the summit 50 COURTESY OF SUMMIT SOTHEBY’S INTERNATIONAL REALTY Summit Sotheby’s International Realty donated $70,000 to 24 nonprofits and other organizations in Summit, Wasatch and Salt Lake counties as part of an annual philanthropic program. “These contributions demonstrate how seriously Summit Sotheby’s International Realty and all of its sales associates take giving back and making a difference in our local communities throughout Utah,” said Thomas Wright, Summit Sotheby’s president and principal broker. Continued From A-15 Rental bill the House Greg Hughes. As of Friday morning, it awaited a signature from Gov. Gary Herbert. Assistant Park City Manager Matt Dias, who was among several city officials lobbying Knotwell regarding the bill, said the amendment addresses the city’s concerns with the earlier versions of the legislation. Unlike other municipalities, the city doesn’t troll nightly rental websites to find potential violators -- it instead relies on neighborhood complaints -- meaning the bill will do little to change the town’s operations. “In our mind, it’s just kind of a messaging bill now,” he said. “It means you can’t fight someone for the advertising component of it. … For us, that’s a far better outcome than losing the primary local zoning control that we would have lost in the bill’s initial form.” Dias added that city leaders appreciated Knotwell’s willingness to work with them to find a measure of compromise in the bill. “Working with Rep. Knotwell, he’s been a very honest broker,” he said. “We’ve worked a lot with him … and he understands that Park City is kind of acutely impacted by the nightly rental industry. We have a high regard for him, although we weren’t necessarily on the same side of the issue.” Zion Curtain ready to fall Utah’s infamous “Zion Curtain,” for restaurants that choose to tear it down, may finally be dead. On Wednesday, both chambers of the Legislature passed H.B. 442, which drastically overhauls some of Utah’s most controversial liquor laws. Chief among them is the so-called Zion Curtain, the partition required in restaurants to prevent patrons from seeing the pouring of alcoholic beverages. If signed into law by Herbert, H.B. 442 would give restaurants two alternatives to the Zion Curtain. In addition to simply keeping the partitions, they could create a 10-foot zone around the bar where minors aren’t allowed without an adult, or construct a 42-inch railing or wall that delineates the bar from the dining area. The bill also gets rid of dining club licenses. Owners of dining clubs -- which are often nearly identical to restaurants but don’t allow minors -- would have until July of 2018 to decide to become either a bar or a full-service restaurant. The restaurant industry, which has fought for years to do away with the Zion Curtain, has supported the bill. Hans Fuegi, a Park City restaurateur who leads the Utah Restaurant Association’s liquor task force, has called it a fair compromise. ©2017 Del Taco LLC DTL-14400 PRICE AND PARTICIPATION MAY VARY.
