What an Awesome Story the Empress Theater has. From it’s beginning in 1916 Entertaining the miners then silent movies.

Leo Ware toiled to and worked and spent a lot of blood sweat and tears, the county wanted to raze the building. His dream of live entertainment was carried forward by the Oquirrh Hills Performing Arts Alliance. The theatre reopened on 4 November 2006 with “Forever Plaid,”.

Run Don’t Walk To Magna The Last Affordable Frontier In Salt Lake County

Magna is located right off of highway 201 and you can be down town Salt Lake City in 15 minutes and to the airport in 10 minutes easy.

Magna is little town that is different than most Salt Lake City Suburbs. Magna has some really cool old buildings on Main St. It has affordable housing and is home to the Kennecott Copper Mine Smelter.

Magna is going through some changes, it is growing. Main Street is getting some much needed face lifts and new businesses are starting to go there. The Empress Theater is going in full swing with the Mystery Of Edwin Drood, very affordable entertainment.

Magna has Brand New Single Family Homes that you can buy for under $250,000 and yes this is not a misprint there are a few BRAND NEW HOMES UNDER $200,000.

There were a few items discussed. One item talked about is the name of the New Senior Center, the land that it will be on was donated by Kennecott. It was promised that the name Kennecott would be in the name, it seems that the folks don’t realize that Kennecott has donated about 6 acres to Magna for civic development.

The real bone of contention is “Code Enforcement” It was stated that there is only one code enforcement officer for the whole Unincorporated West Side of Salt Lake County. The other problem is that the county cannot make code violations a criminal act, like a city can. So the problem is the result of two major flaws.

1. The lack of enforcers.
2. The ability for the enforcers to really do much. 

Something has to give the citizens of Magna are fed up and they want their voices heard by the county government.
