Buhler details his plans for downtown, calls Becker a 'Xerox Man'
When it comes to plans for downtown, Dave Buhler says the "Blueprint Man" should be called "Xerox Man." Buhler unveiled the latest of his "to-do" lists Friday, detailing what he promises to accomplish downtown and comparing his record with that of his opponent in the Salt Lake City mayoral race, Ralph Becker. Buhler contends that Becker's blueprint for downtown is a copy of Downtown Rising, a plan created by the Salt Lake Chamber and Downtown Alliance to guide Utah's capital city into the future, without offering any specifics or new ideas. "He ought to be called Xerox Man because he's basically saying he'll implement Downtown Rising," Buhler said. Buhler said his opponent "has not really done anything to support downtown" during his 11 years in the state House of Representatives.
