Midday Metro starts after the 10 a.m. news
We'll check in with Elizabeth Ziegler, one of KCPW's reporters on Capitol Hill during the legislative session.
Delta Airlines is in merger talks. Salt Lake City Mayor Ralph Becker says he'll do everything in his power to keep the carrier's hub in the Capital City. But he wants to use airport passenger fees to help build a TRAX extension to the airport - a move Delta opposes. Who's got the upper hand in these negotiations? Midday Metro talks with Mayor Becker.
At 10:30 on The Bottomline, what's the best way equalize the cost of building and maintaining schools across the state? The Utah Foundation has eight suggestions. Midday Metro talks about it with executive director Steve Kroes.
Plus the business of wildlife management in the state of Utah with Greg Sheehan, Division of Wildlife Resources.
