| Introducing a limited PILOT program could yield millions of dollars annually to benefit Great Salt Lake. Many private organizations hold over $9 billion in untaxed property in the Great Salt Lake Basin. A PILOT program could yield significant revenue and ensure that all property types contribute to Utah’s water future. The Great Salt Lake Strike Team analyzed ten policy options and created summaries for each. The strike team does not endorse individual policies but rather evaluated the most-discussed options to address Great Salt Lake. Policy summaries fall into four categories: (1) Water Shepherding, (2) Economic Incentives, (3) Agriculture Optimization, and (4) Engineered Options. |
