Public Notice: Friends of Little Cottonwood Canyon (FoLCC) is a tax-exempt organization supporting the preservation of this valuable resource while responsibly addressing the transportation needs of Utahns and visitors who enjoy the natural beauty of our Wasatch Front and, in particular, Little Cottonwood Canyon. As a 501(c)(4)—not a 501(c)(3) as erroneously reported—it can endorse candidates for political office and has done so in both the Sandy and Cottonwood Heights municipal elections, candidates whose positions are closely aligned with FoLCC.Some individual members of FoLCC have made contributions to various political campaigns as is their right as private citizens participating in the political process, but as an organization, FoLCC has not made financial contributions to any campaign or candidate. A fundamental principle governing FoLCC is to operate entirely within state and federal laws and statutes. Any implication that it does otherwise is simply an attempt to sway public opinion with misinformation. We value our canyon resource and want to preserve it, while others seek to exploit it for their own financial benefit at the expense of Utah taxpayers.We welcome any inquiry and opportunity to enlighten concerned citizens who value accurate and honest information.
