Decker Lake Improvements
About
Decker Lake is a space within West Valley City that offers residents living in an urban space an opportunity to connect with nature without travelling too far. The Active People, Healthy Utah grant is working with the Salt Lake County Parks and Recreation Department to support several improvements around the trail.

Wayfinding Signs
Additional signs will be placed around the lake to help visitors understand the connection of the Decker Lake Trail loop to other trails in the city, along with information on trail distances.
Trashcans and Pet Waste Stations
We hope to encourage visitors to keep the space clean by funding additional trashcans and pet waste stations around the trail.
