Step 4:
Site and Facility Development
SLC Sports Complex, as a member of Salt Lake County Parks & Recreation, is in
compliance with title II of ADA. Dedicated to providing the highest standard of care, all
services, programs, and/or activities at both the site and the Ice Arena are accessible to
individuals with disabilities.
Parking Lot
Parking is located immediately adjacent to SLC Sports Complex, on the West side.
There are two lots for those with permits, accessible parking is available 10 to 15ft from
the curb ramps.
Entrance
Patrons access SLC Sports Complex through four (4) doors at the west entrance,
two of which are ADA Accessible.
Lobby
Patrons enter the site and walk through the lobby. The benches provided are
constructed of wood instead of metal to reduce the risk of injury from sharp metal
edges. The front desk is equipped with two different gates in order to ensure all patrons
have access to the facilities.
Rentals
Ice Skate rentals are adjacent to the West Ice Arena doors.
The East Ice Arena is rented out and used for programs other than
public skating.
Ice thickness: Ice must be kept between 1 and 1.5 inches thick, enough to
support skaters weight and at the same time keep electrical costs to a
minimum. Any thinner and the ice is in danger of cracking, which can result in
injury to skaters and employees and financial loss to repair surface. Ice must
be checked once per week by a trained staff member. Using a cordless drill
and tape measure, the employee will check the ice in several specified
locations and record the finding on the appropriate Ice Thickness Chart. Any
need for thinning or thickening can then be addresses by rink maintenance
staff before skaters take to the ice.
Ice Surface: Providing a smooth skating surface free of dents, holes, and
bumps that skaters may trip over requires that the ice be resurfaces every 1
hour session. During resurfacing, to prevent staff or user injury, no one will be
allowed on the ice with the Zamboni except the Zamboni driver. To prevent
injury, rink entry must remain closed at all times while the Zamboni is on the
ice and am employee should remain at the gate as an extra precaution to
prevent access to the rink. Guest should only be open when the Zamboni has
left the ice, staff has finished inspecting the rink surface and patching holes,
and the Zamboni gate has been closed.
Rink Entry: Inadequate entry/exit points could result in injury in the event of
an emergency. Rink entry gates should remain open at all times that skaters
are on the ice in case the ice has to be evacuated.
Air Quality: If building ventilation is inadequate, Zamboni exhaust and other
chemicals could pose health risks for rink users. Proper ventilation if of upmost
importance in order to protect rink users and staff and ensure appropriate
health standards are being met.
Rink Boards and Netting: To prevent injury from stray hockey pucks, the rink
is surrounded by Plexiglas and netting.
Ice Thickness Measurements
Location on ice:
Upper left quadrant, outer edge ______
Lobby:
Slip: Flooring will be made of rubberized material to minimize the risk of
patrons slipping on wet floors
Security: Items left unattended have the potential for being stolen and
therefore propose a security risk. Those items will be removed from the Lobby
immediately by the staff and placed in the lost and found.
Facility Equipment
Poorly Maintained Equipment: Malfunctioning equipment including the
score board and PA system poses financial risks to SLCSC Ice Arena. This
equipment will be operated by trained employees only, and will be checked
monthly to ensure smoother operation and avoid long-term issues and costly
replacements.
Zamboni
Zamboni Access: To prevent user and unqualified employee access and
potential injury, the Zamboni will be kept in the locked Zamboni room; only
employees trained to operate the Zamboni should have key to the room.
There will be posting of clear, visible warning signs to reinforce the rules and
dangers of using the Zamboni.
Zamboni Blade: The Zamboni Blade will be changed with caution once a week
in order to ensure smooth, quality ice and minimize the risk of user injury.

with our insurance provider to ensure that we are properly insured. We will consult with
our insurance provider a minimum of two times every fiscal year to review our insurance

the administration office as well as the ice area office.
Step 14.
Public Relations

be associated with the use of our ice rink. We do as much as we can to ensure that these
risks do not became a reality to our participants. In the chance that we do we will act in

policies and rules.

relations manager. The current public relations manager is Callie Birdsall. If you have
any questions regarding incidents or injuries related to the Ice Area please call Callie
Birdsall at 385-226-7177.
Step 15.
Outside Specialist/Legal Insurance
At Salt Lake City Sports Complex Ice Arena we will always retain and consult with
an outside legal counsel with matters that pertain to the risk associated within our
facility.
Step 16.
Periodic Review
At the Salt Lake City Sports Complex Ice Arena we pledge to review our risk
management plan a minimum of twice a year, every six months starting on the date of
March 1st. Our plan to review the risk management plan will include risk management
consultant, facility director, figure skating coordinator, hockey coordinator, and the
youth program manager. To ensure our staff know the changes made to the risk
management plan, we will hold staff meetings twice a year, to inform them of the new
policies and regulations.
