Seismic upgrades nearly complete for schools in Salt Lake City

From The Salt Lake Tribune: The Salt Lake City (Utah) district is in the final stages of a long-term facilities upgrade that will make every school building earthquake-resistant. Over the past two decades, the district, which has 36 schools, has spent $401 million on the seismic upgrades. Twenty schools were replaced, and 16 schools underwent retrofits. Only two projects remain to be done this summer: seismic upgrades at district-sponsored charter schools Open Classroom and Salt Lake Center for Science Education.
