I don't skate, but this is kind of bullshit anyway.
The Salt Lake Valley Health Department has passed an ordinance banning skate ramps on residential properties in Salt Lake County. The ban falls under a "Community Noise Pollution Control Regulation".
"4.5.21. Sporting Ramps. No person shall build or use nor shall any person cause, allow, or permit anyone to build or allow anyone to use any skateboard, roller blade, bicycle, or snowboard ramp or half-pipe or similar configuration within 800 feet of a dwelling, except within facilities that have been designated for such use by government entity."
It's official. The Health Department hates fun.

Someone in salt lake should build the biggest residential skate ramp now. Not that I like skateboarding but I LOVE controversy.
i always talked about building a skate ramp... but i never got around to it... now im effed. officially.
When I was a kid my dad built my brother & I an awesome skateboard ramp so this ban really pisses me off, even though I haven't skated in years
You know whats bullshit telling people what they can and cant do on land they own. The city can fuck themselves if they think im gonna follow any regulations when I build my underground skate ramp slash bunker slash bedroom in the backyard.That is gonna be where i customize my boards with special grip tape and wheels capable of freeway speeds.
