SALT LAKE CITY â A large American flag is flying over the Rose Park neighborhood.
The flagpole stands near the corner of 900 West and 1000 North, just feet away from Interstate 15.
It was originally installed back in the 1980âs.
Recently, residents of the neighborhood decided they wanted to be responsible for its upkeep and maintenance.
âI want people to know as they come down I-15 North or South, they can look at the flag and say, âthatâs a proud community right there,ââ said Kent Mayberry who has lived in Rose Park for 52 years.

SALT LAKE CITY – The first Salt Lake City Council candidate has already kicked off campaign season in Utah s capital city while also jumping into new waters: Salt Lake City s first election using ranked-choice voting.
Blake Perez, former chairman of the Rose Park Community Council and current deputy director of the Central Wasatch Commission, announced his candidacy for the west-side City Council District 1 seat during a news conference held alongside the Jordan River on Friday. I believe we can rise together to address the challenges we face today, including unhealthy air quality, rising costs of living, improving public safety, and helping our brothers and sisters experiencing homelessness, Perez said. I believe this community can rise together to protect the things we love, like our diversity, our tree-lined streets and a healthy and bright future for our youth.
