Officials from Hill AFB, Utah, and Sunset Ridge Development Partners held a ceremony to welcome one new building on the base while simultaneously breaking ground on another. The event celebrated the completion of a brand new 35,000-square-foot facility for the 75th Security Forces Squadron and the start of construction for a new commercial office building on the base’s west side. “This ribbon-cutting and ground-breaking event signifies the bright future in store for Hill,” said Col.

Zabel said Falcon Hill “benefits the base and the communities outside the gate by stimulating growth in northern Utah.” (Hill report by Rich Essary)
