Letter: How about some dehydrated water?

(Francisco Kjolseth  |  Tribune file photo) Ongoing development takes shape around Oquirrh Lake at Daybreak on Thursday, Jan. 9, 2020. Daybreak, the 4,100-acre master planned community in South Jordan, illustrates the idea of blending higher density housing and walkable community design with ample amounts of open space. That "smart growth" land use approach is being required by Salt Lake County for a proposed development called Olympia Hills, a 933-acre residential and commercial project proposed west of Herriman.

The recent Salt Lake Tribune article about “smart sprawl” reminded me of “clean coal” and Mike Lee as a “constitutional scholar.”

Yeah, right.

If you believe that, I have some dehydrated water for sale. Just add water, and, Voilá!
