Several major players working to bring more professional sports to Utah are interested in locating future teams near North Temple on the west side of Salt Lake City, multiple sources told Building Salt Lake. In fact, there’s talk about developing some of the 100 acres of land owned by Rocky Mountain Power and developing it into a sports district should the effort succeed. Multiple sources confirmed the Larry H. Miller Company is interested in attracting a Major League Baseball team to Salt Lake City and building a stadium on land that’s owned and being redeveloped by Rocky Mountain Power. An announcement could come during a groundbreaking at the Power District on Wednesday. Eventually, the site could become home to a National League Hockey team, another source said. Councilman Alejandro Puy, who represents the City Council district that includes the site, confirmed the area was being eyed for an MLB team. “When I was briefed about it they were talking about MLB in Salt Lake,” Puy said Tuesday. “There is very much a thought process and there are actua...

Renderings released Wednesday, April 12, 2023, depict what a new Major League Baseball stadium could look like in the Power District located on North Temple in Salt Lake City, according to Big League Utah, a group described as a “broad community coalition led by the Miller family. It consists of Utah’s federal, state and local decision-makers, business and community leaders, former MLB baseball players and potential investors.” The same family that helped usher in Utah’s big league sports era in the 1980s after purchasing the financially struggling Utah Jazz to keep the NBA team in the Beehive State is ready to up the ante, and this time around the mission is to bring Major League Baseball to Salt Lake City. On Wednesday, the Miller family and the Larry H. Miller Company announced a coalition of Utah leaders has been convened to position Salt Lake City as an ideal market for Major League Baseball. Big League Utah, a broad-based community coalition, said it believes Utah is the “Future of America’s Pastime” and has targeted a shovel-ready site for a new MLB ballpark at the 100-acre Rocky Mountain Power District on Salt Lake City’s west side. “We believe in the power of sports to elevate and unify communities,” Gail Miller, co-founder and owner of the Larry H. Miller Company, said in a press statement. “Larry and I risked everything to acquire the Utah Jazz, and it was a tremendous honor to ensure it thrived as a model franchise. We now have an opportunity to welcome Major L...

Construction of a Major League Baseball stadium in Salt Lake City would almost certainly include some public investment for what could be a billion-dollar project. What form that might take isn’t known yet. Utah government leaders appear averse to diverting taxpayer dollars directly to build a ballpark but acknowledged tax increment financing or a public-private partnership could be options. And whether Utah voters would have a say through a referendum also remains to be seen. But residents in the Beehive State aren’t totally against putting public money toward a big league stadium. A new Deseret News/Hinckley Institute of Politics poll found Utahns almost evenly split on the idea, with 47% supporting the use of tax dollars and 50% opposing. Dan Jones & Associates conducted the survey of 798 registered Utah voters May 22 to June 1. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.46 percentage points. The Larry H. Miller Company MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred wants to expand baseball to 32 teams, but he has said the league won’t consider adding two new franchises until the Tampa Bay Rays and the Oakland A’s resolve ongoing stadium issues. The A’s — the team with the worst record and lowest attendance so far this year —appear headed to Las Vegas. Portland, Nashville, Charlotte and Montreal are possible expansion sites. Utahns overwhelmingly support the effort to bring a major league team to the state, according to a Related • • The new survey showed half of men support using publi...
