advocated Saturday by Alan E Brockbank Salt Lake builder and chairman of the building and construction committee of the Chamber of Commerce He said he agreed that certain areas in Salt Lake City are rapidly deteriorating and will turn intp slums unless something is done to halt the process as was pointed out in a recent series of “articles in The Tribune Necessary Steps If a citizens committee is appointed some impartial agency such as the University of Utah should be asked to study the with the problem in committee and then submit a report outlining steps necessary to prevent further deterioration particularly in residential areas Mr Brockbank believes He said other cities have made such surveys financed by home builders mortgage bankers materials dealers and others interested in maintaining high construction standards Pretty Bad Spots "Salt Lake City doesn’t have large slum areas as some cities do” Mr Brockbank said “but there are some pretty bad spots scattered through certain sections of the city Salt Lake City has had a unique pride of ownership which seems to have been slipping in recent years" He believes there should be a centralization of authority with respect to enforcement by the city of the various codes designed to assure safe construction and prevent the maintenance of nuisances of various kinds plus the enactment of an ordinance to enable the city to enforce certain minimum standards as far as homes and other buildings are concerned r ‘Climate Counts Mr Brockbank also emphasized the importance of building the kind of “climate" that will encourage home owners and others to maintain their properties In a good state of repair This involves the of churches women’s clubs civic organizations and other groups interested in fostering civic
