The City Council unanimously voted to create a commercial special district for the aquarium and professional buildings that will surround it. The council also voted to sell sales tax revenue bonds to cover the $11 million it is providing for the 180,000-square-foot building. The new zone allows for the aquarium, along with movie theaters, live theaters, reception centers, banks, hotels and similar businesses. The buildings would also have to harmonize in their architecture. Salt Lake Tribune
