By HANNAH SCHOENBAUM SALT LAKE CITY — The Winter Olympics will make its grand return to Salt Lake City in 2034, the International Olympic Committee announced Wednesday, marking the success of Utah’s decades-long effort to preserve Olympic venues and retain public enthusiasm. Local leaders have had their sights set on hosting again — and becoming part of a possible future rotation of winter host cities — even before Salt Lake City hosted its first Games in 2002.
