Zoo, Arts, and Parks Program Supported by the Public
Funding for Salt Lake County's cultural, zoological, and botanical organizations is high on the list of priorities for citizens in the county,” says Mayor Peter Corroon. “We are also well aware that this funding is critical to these organizations’ continued success.” A Dan Jones Survey of County Residents illustrates that more than half the citizens surveyed are very much aware of the ZAP program, and they believe ZAP support for art, cultural, zoological, museums, recreation and parks is important.
• Aware of ZAP = 56%
• Very important = 58%
• Somewhat important = 37%
• Not important = 2%
Beyond a public opinion survey, the real proof of public support for the ZAP program came at the ballot box. First a little over ten years ago and again last year when ZAP was re-authorized by an overwhelming majority of voters for another decade.
