AND I HAVE INSTRUCTED THOSE I MISSED ONE, BUT I'VE INSTRUCTED THOSE PINNING HOW TO DO THIS. YOU KNOW, YOU WANT TO REALLY DRIVE THE POINT HOME. NO PUN INTENDED.

WE HAVE TWO PARAMEDICS OVER HERE FROM OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT, SO GO AHEAD.
COUNCIL, THIS IS ALWAYS A FUN TIME FOR US BECAUSE IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU TO SEE THAT WHEN WE BRING AN OFFICER INTO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, WE ALSO BRING IN THEIR FAMILY TO OUR FAMILY AND REALLY TO THE FAMILY OF WEST JORDAN CITY. AND IT GIVES US ALL THE SENSE THAT WE'RE HERE TO SERVE THE FAMILIES OF WEST JORDAN CITY. SO IF YOU'RE READY, OFFICERS LINE UP RIGHT AROUND THERE AND WE'LL ASK THE COUNCIL TO COME DOWN AND TAKE PICTURES WITH YOU IF THEY'D LIKE. JUST THE OFFICERS. OKAY. THANK YOU. YEAH.

WAIT FOR THE MAYOR. THERE WE GO. THOUGHT THE MAYOR WAS OUT TRYING TO FIX THE POWER.MAYBE. YOU. OH, BROTHER. IT'S REALLY FLIPPED MY SWITCH. MAYOR. SHOCKING. SHOCKING. ALL RIGHT.
YES. SORRY. NO WORRIES. WE GOOD? WE GOT ONE MORE, ONE MORE. OKAY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. IT'S ALWAYS A GREAT NIGHT WHEN WE WELCOME NEW OFFICERS TO OUR
[PUBLIC COMMENT]
CITY. WELCOME. WE'RE HAPPY TO HAVE YOU. NEXT ON OUR AGENDA IS PUBLIC COMMENTS. THE FIRST PERSON THAT HAS TURNED IN THEIR YELLOW SLIP IS STEVEN SHILL. SO, MR. SHILL, IF YOU WANT TO COME FORWARD AND YOU'LL HAVE THREE MINUTES. THREE MINUTES. OKAY. WELL, BEING THAT THIS IS THE WEEK AFTER 4TH OF JULY, MY BAD, I SHOULD I SHOULD STATE MY NAME OR DO YOU HAVE THAT. ARE YOU GOOD WITH THAT. YEP. OKAY. SINCE THIS IS THE WEEK AFTER 4TH OF JULY, I'D LIKE TO BRING TO THE COUNCIL'S ATTENTION THAT I'M NOT HERE TO TALK ABOUT BANNING FIREWORKS, BUT THIS IS A RESULT OF FIREWORK DISPLAY. ABOUT TEN MINUTES. IT SPREAD OVER 43,000FT■!S OF MY PROPERTY. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME IT'S HAPPENED. THE POLICE HAS BEEN VERY GENEROUS TO RESPOND, BUT IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. AND USUALLY WHEN THE WIND IS OUT OF THE NORTHWEST, THEY SET THE FIREWORKS OFF IN THE CORNER OF THEIR PROPERTY AND IT EXPLODES AND PILFERS MY PROPERTY. AS I SAID, I'VE CONTACTED THE POLICE MANY TIMES OVER THE LAST EIGHT YEARS FOR FOUR RESPONSES ONE.THE FIRST YEAR I DIDN'T. I ASKED MY NEIGHBOR NOT TO DO THAT, AND THEY DID. THE FOLLOWING YEAR THE POLICE ASKED THEM TO CLEAN IT UP. I WASN'T HAPPY ABOUT THAT. I DIDN'T REALLY WANT HIM ON MY PROPERTY, BUT THAT WAS THE SOLUTION. I THOUGHT, BUT I'M NOT HERE TO SPEAK ON BANNING THEM.
BUT THIS IS TOTAL MISUSE OF FIREWORKS. AND ACCORDING TO THE MAYOR, I SPOKE WITH THE MAYOR THIS MORNING THAT THE CITY HAS NO ORDINANCE ON THE BOOKS TO DEAL WITH MISUSE. MAYBE THAT'S MY TERM AND IT'S GETTING TO BE OLD. MY WIFE AND I FEEL LIKE WE'RE HELD HOSTAGE AT OUR RESIDENCE ON THE 4TH OF JULY, AND SOMETIMES THE 24TH, BECAUSE WE HAVE TO DO A FIRE WATCH. I'VE BEEN STRUCK BY THESE PROJECTILES, IF YOU WILL, NEAR MY HOME. MY GUTTERS HAVE BEEN FILLED UP WITH THAT. I HAD AN ICE JAM ONE YEAR BECAUSE I DIDN'T REALIZE MY GUTTERS WERE FULL OF THIS STUFF, AND IT JUST CONTINUALLY GOES ON BY THIS ONE PARTICULAR NEIGHBOR. BUT BUT IF YOU LOOK AROUND THE CITY WHERE YOU SEE FIREWORKS DISPLAYS IN FRONT OF PEOPLE'S HOUSES, IT'S THE MESS IS STILL THERE. AND I THINK IT'S TIME THAT WE AS A CITY TAKE A SERIOUS LOOK AT THAT. WE'RE NOT A SMALL RURAL COMMUNITY ANYMORE. WE'RE AN URBAN, URBAN CITY AND THIS STUFF JUST CAN'T GO ON. I MEAN, HEY, I'VE WORKED MY ENTIRE LIFE TO PAY OFF MY PROPERTY AND TO SEE IT ENDANGERED LIKE THIS. I HAVE TO STAY HOME AND STAND A FIRE WATCH FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE TOTAL DISREGARD AND MISUSE OF FIREWORKS. IT'S JUST NOT ACCEPTABLE. AND SO I THOUGHT I WOULD BRING THAT TO YOUR ATTENTION. THIS IS OVER 43,000FT■!S OF PROPERTY, AND IF YOU WERE TO COME TO MY PROPERTY TODAY AND TAKE ANY LINE ACROSS MY PROPERTY, YOU'LL STILL FIND THIS STUFF. IT JUST COMES NEVER, NEVER. BIODEGRADES I'LL BE PICKING IT UP. THERE'S PROPELLANT IN HERE. THERE'S LARGE PIECES OF PLASTIC AND SO ON AND SO FORTH. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE LEGALITY OF HIS FIREWORKS WERE, BUT THIS IS THE RESULT OF HIS FIREWORKS DISPLAY.
ALWAYS OUT OF THE NORTHWEST. WHEN THE WIND, WHEN THE WIND BLOWS. I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AS A COUNCIL. I WOULD JUST HOPEFULLY RAISE YOUR AWARENESS TO SOMETHING YOU REALLY NEED TO THINK ABOUT, BECAUSE THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE FUN ANYMORE. I'LL END WITH THIS. THE MAYOR ASKED ME INVITED ME TO COME TO THE JORDAN STAMPEDE ON THE 4TH OF JULY. I GOT TO STAND FIRE.
WATCH. THANK YOU. NEXT WE WILL ASK KATHY ROMAN TO COME FORWARD. HELLO. I AM A MEMBER OF THE 1075 WEST SAFETY COALITION AND JUST WANTED TO SAY A FEW THINGS. 92 SOUTH CONSTRUCTION IS NEARING
[00:10:07]
COMPLETION. YAY! ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE CITY. I'D LIKE TO THANK POLICE CHIEF WALLENTINE FOR THE EXCELLENT TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT THAT THE THAT THE WEST JORDAN POLICE OFFICERS HAVE HAVE PARTICIPATED IN DURING CONSTRUCTION. THE DRIVERS TYPICALLY SPEED UP THE HILL ON 90TH SOUTH. THAT HAPPENED BEFORE CONSTRUCTION. DURING CONSTRUCTION. I'M SURE IT'LL BE AN ISSUE AFTER EVERYTHING IS DONE, BUT IT MAKES IT REALLY TREACHEROUS FOR MY NEIGHBORS AND I TO EXIT ONTO 90TH SOUTH. SO IT JUST CREATES A DANGER. WE HAVE CHEERED WHEN DRIVERS HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, AND THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF THEM THAT HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER.SADLY, WE DON'T WANT TO WISH A TICKET ON ANYBODY, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, PEOPLE NEED TO LEARN TO PRIORITIZE PEOPLE OVER WHATEVER THEIR WHEREVER THEY'RE TRYING TO GO. SO WE REALLY DO APPRECIATE THE POLICE DEPARTMENT FOR THAT. AND WE HOPE TO SEE THAT CONTINUE. YES. WE'VE GOT THREE MINUTES. SORRY. YOU STILL HAVE ANOTHER MINUTE. KEEP GOING TO. YOU KNOW FROM BEFORE THEY EVER HAD STAFF FOR THEIR RESPONSIVENESS COMMUNITY TWO YEARS AGO. IT WAS THE TOPIC.
ENGINEER HERE AT THAT TIME AND WORKED WITH THEM TO MAKE MY NEIGHBORHOOD SAFER. YEAH, WE HAVE A DANGEROUS INTERSECTION IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD THAT. I. IS THOUGHT TO GET TO AND FROM SCHOOL. AND IT'S HARD ANYWAY, BUT IT MADE IT MUCH WORSE WHEN I WAS GROWING UP. THE 90TH WAS SPEEDING THROUGH OUR NEIGHBORHOOD TO TRY TO KIND OF AVOID THE TRAFFIC LIGHT IN THE BACKYARD, THAT SOMETIMES THE WHOLE FIELD. SO. THE OH, OKAY, WE'LL, WE'LL, WE'LL TRY ONE THAT WORKS. SO MAYOR BURTON AND THE CITY PERSONNEL HAVE WORKED WITH US TO MAKE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD SAFER, AND THEY HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR US. AND I AM REALLY GRATEFUL FOR THE WEST JORDAN GOVERNMENT FOR THEIR RESPONSIVENESS TO US. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. NEXT, WE HAVE GLENDA MITCHELL. MR. MITCHELL, COME ON UP. HI THERE. I THINK I KNOW MOST OF YOU. IT'S GREAT TO BE HERE. I'M ALSO A MEMBER OF THE 1075 WEST SAFETY COALITION. HI, BOB. BUT I'M HERE MORE AS A RESIDENT. AND FIRST OF ALL, I JUST WANTED TO JOIN WITH KATHY IN THANKING THE CITY IN GENERAL FOR THEIR FOCUS AND EFFORTS ON SAFETY. WE REALLY APPRECIATE THAT. MOST OF YOU KNOW OUR STORY. WE'RE A BENEFACTOR OF GREAT FIRE AND POLICE WORK, AND THREE YEARS AGO, AND WE REALLY APPRECIATE EVERYONE'S FOCUS. THE MAYOR'S ON PUBLIC SAFETY. AND THANK YOU FOR THAT. AND HOPEFULLY IT'LL APPROVE THEIR BUDGET. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT IS, BUT HOPEFULLY YOU'LL PROVE PUBLIC WORKS AND THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT BUDGETS WHEN YOU GET TO THAT POINT. THAT'S THAT'S IMPORTANT TO US AS RESIDENTS AS IT IS TO YOU. I WANTED TO JUST ALSO OFFER A THANKS. THIS IS OUTSIDE THE SCOPE OF OUR COALITION AND MAYBE EVEN THE PURVIEW OF THE OF THE CITY. BUT MAYOR BURTON HAS GREAT VISIONS OF SAFETY HIMSELF AND HIS WORK BEHIND THE SCENES. I HOPE I'M OKAY. OH, HE'S BUSY, SO I CAN SAY IT ANYWAY, SAYING THIS, BUT HE MADE A REQUEST OR MULTIPLE REQUESTS TO UDOT TO CHANGE THE SPEED LIMIT ON 90TH SOUTH BETWEEN SEVENTH WEST AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE I JOINED IN WITH THAT PROCESS VERY LATE ON. AND WE GOT AN EMAIL, I THINK, A WEEK AGO THAT UDOT IS GOING TO REDUCE THE SPEED LIMIT ON 90TH SOUTH THROUGH THAT SECTION, WHICH I THINK WILL BE A NICE STEP IN KEEPING US, AND IT KEEPS US A LITTLE MORE CONSISTENT WITH 106 SOUTH. BUT I JUST WANT TO PERSONALLY THANK EACH ONE OF YOU AND THE MAYOR'S TEAM MAYOR, PERSONALLY, THE MAYOR'S TEAM, FOR THEIR FOCUS ON PUBLIC SAFETY. IT REALLY IS A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE IN WEST JORDAN, AND WE APPRECIATE A SAFE PLACE TO LIVE. AND BOB, THANKS FOR ALL YOU'VE DONE FOR US. SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU. IS THERE ANY OTHER PUBLIC IN THE AUDIENCE OR
[00:15:07]
ONLINE THAT WISHES TO ADDRESS THE COUNCIL THIS EVENING? COME ON UP. IF YOU DO, MR. ANDERSON.ANYONE ONLINE? CURRENTLY WE'RE ON BATTERY POWER AND NOT EVERYTHING IN THIS ROOM IS POWERED WITH BATTERY, SO I CANNOT LOOK AT ZOOM RIGHT NOW. LAST TIME I LOOKED BEFORE THE POWER GLITCH, THERE WERE TWO PEOPLE, NEITHER OF WHOM HAD RAISED THEIR HAND. OKAY. THANK YOU. YES, WE CONTINUE TO HAVE POWER PROBLEMS. I WOULD LIKE TO MENTION THAT COUNCIL MEMBER
[a. Ordinance No. 25-23 Amendments to Multiple Sections of West Jordan City Code Title 13 to Permit Short Term Rentals and Update a Related Definition]
BLOOM JOINED AT 704 AND WE WILL MOVE ON THEN TO OUR NEXT AGENDA ITEM, WHICH IS A PUBLIC HEARING.HEARING ORDINANCE NUMBER 25, DASH 23 AMENDMENTS TO MULTIPLE SECTIONS OF CODE. TITLE 13 TO PERMIT SHORT TERM RENTALS AND UPDATE AN A RELATED DEFINITION. MR. GARDNER. THANK YOU. MAYOR.
COUNCIL. AS A COUNCIL AWARE. A ORDINANCE APPROVING SHORT TERM RENTALS AS A TO BE BUSINESS LICENSE WAS APPROVED IN APRIL. HOWEVER, WHAT THAT ORDINANCE ORDINANCE DID NOT DO IS DESCRIBE WHERE THE USE COULD BE CONDUCTED. AND SO THIS IS AN AMENDMENT TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE THAT WILL OUTLINE OR WILL OUTLINE WHERE SHORT TERM RENTALS CAN BE CONDUCTED. NOW, THEY'D STILL BE LICENSED AS A BUSINESS OR GET A BUSINESS OR A SHORT TERM RENTAL LICENSE. I THINK THEY CALL IT IN THE ZONES THAT ARE BEFORE YOU. THERE'S ALSO A DEFINITION THAT WILL BE ADDED TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND THE ORDINANCE. THE DEFINITION IS THE EXACT SAME ORDINANCE OR DEFINITION. EXCUSE ME, AS WHAT WAS DEFINED AS THE SHORT TERM RENTAL, WHICH IS MEANS A RESIDENTIAL UNIT OR ANY PORTION OF A RESIDENTIAL UNIT THAT THE OWNER OF, RECORD OR LESSEE OF THE RESIDENTIAL UNIT OFFERS FOR OCCUPANCY FOR FEWER THAN 30 CONSECUTIVE DAYS. SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, THE ZONE THAT SHORT TERM RENTALS WILL BE ALLOWED IN AS OUR R1, R2, R3 RURAL. RESIDENTIAL, RURAL AND RURAL ESTATE ZONES. THEY'LL ALSO BE ALLOWED IN THE RM ZONE, WHICH IS A. MOBILE HOME ZONE, AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION WANTED TO ADD THE CONDITION AS LONG AS THEY OWN THE LOT. IF IT'S NOT A TRUE MOBILE HOME PARK WHERE IT'S ONE BIG PARK AND THEY JUST LEASE THE SPACE. THAT WOULD NOT QUALIFY. BUT THERE ARE SEVERAL IN THE CITY WHERE THERE'S A MOBILE HOME ON A SPECIFIC LOT, AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION WANTED TO ALLOW SHORT TERM RENTALS. IF THEY OWN THEIR LOT, THEY'LL BE ALLOWED IN A1-A5 A 20 ZONES, PRD, PC ZONES, CITY CENTER ZONES, THE INTEGRATED HOUSING ZONE I AND SOUTHWEST QUADRANT ZONES IN THE SINGLE FAMILY OR THE RESIDENTIAL PORTION OF THOSE ZONES. AND THEN IN ALL OF THE RESIDENTIAL ZONES OF THE SPAS, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE HIGH DENSITY PORTION OF THAT ZONE. THEY'RE THE. DOES THE COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OF ME? ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR MR. GARDNER? COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB, THANK YOU. I DO HAVE A QUESTION ON THAT. THAT PLANNING COMMISSION AMENDMENT. YEAH. TO ONLY ALLOW IT IN MOBILE HOMES IF THE MOBILE HOME OWNER ALSO OWNS THE LOT UNDERNEATH, IS IT FEASIBLE OR IS IT POSSIBLE TO IF THEY DO NOT OWN THE LAND UNDERNEATH BUT HAVE PERMISSION OF THE OWNER OF THE LAND? I THINK IT COULD BE. IT WOULD JUST BE BECAUSE THE DEFINITION DOES SAY LESSEE, YOU KNOW, JUST OUT OF ABUNDANCE, ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION. WE DIDN'T INITIALLY ALLOW THEM IN MOBILE HOMES, BUT THE PLANNING COMMISSION FELT THAT IF THEY OWNED THE LOT. BUT IF THE COUNCIL FEELS LIKE THAT, IT'S OKAY IF THEY DON'T OWN THE LOT, IF IT'S JUST PART OF A LARGER PARK, THEN THAT COULD BE ADDED TO THE ZONE. AND THERE'S ALSO THE POSSIBILITY, RIGHT, THAT YOU COULD ON THE MOBILE HOME, NOT OWN THE LOT, BUT THE LOT IS NOT PART OF A LARGER
[00:20:03]
PARK. OR IT COULD BE RENTING THE SPACE FROM CORRECT WHOEVER. SO OKAY, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE BABIES AND BATHWATER ALL IN THE RIGHT. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. JUST TO DOVETAIL ON COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB'S CONCERN ON THAT WAS WHEN I WAS READING THE DEFINITIONS I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE. LEASE E HAVING THE ABILITY TO RENT OUT THEIR OWN THE PROPERTY THEY'RE RENTING AS A SHORT TERM RENTAL UNDER THE DEFINITIONS IN THE RCA. I SPOKE WITH LEGAL ABOUT I, AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THAT WOULD ONLY BE POSSIBLE IF THE LEASE. EXPRESSLY ALLOWED IT. SO I THINK IT COULD BE SOMETHING SIMILAR WITH THIS LOT BEING LEASED OUT, YOU KNOW, ALLOWING SUBLEASING. SO I'M SEEING SOME CONFUSED LOOKS. WOULD YOU MIND MR. CHANDLER EXPLAINING MY A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT? YEAH. IF I MAY. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON CAME TO US ASKING ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT, AS I UNDERSTOOD THE CONCERN, WHETHER OR NOT THIS WOULD PROVIDE A RIGHT TO A LESSEE OF PROPERTY TO LEASE THEIR HOME OUT FOR, FOR SHORT TERM RENTAL, IF THEIR LEASE DIDN'T GIVE THEM THAT RIGHT. AND WHAT WE HAD TALKED ABOUT IS THAT THAT RELATIONSHIP OF THE USE OF THE PROPERTY IS DICTATED BY THE LEASE, AND THAT WHATEVER OUR CITY ORDINANCE HAD WOULDN'T DICTATE WHAT THAT LEASE WAS. OBVIOUSLY, THE CITY CAN PROHIBIT CERTAIN USES OF IT, BUT WE CAN'T PROVIDE RIGHTS TO THEM THAT THEY DON'T ALREADY GET UNDER THE LEASE FOR THE PROPERTY. AND SO IF SOMEONE IS RENTING PROPERTY AND THERE'S A PROHIBITION ON SUBLETTING THAT PROPERTY AND THE LEASE, THIS ORDINANCE WOULDN'T HAVE ANY IMPACT ON THAT. OR IF THERE'S RENTING PROPERTY AND THEN IT DOES PROVIDE THEM THE ABILITY TO SUBLET THE PROPERTY, THEN WHAT THIS ORDINANCE WOULD DO IS STILL ALLOW THEM TO SUBLET THE PROPERTY CONSISTENT WITH WHAT THEY'RE ALLOWED TO DO UNDER THEIR LEASE. DOES THAT CAPTURE COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON? COUNCIL MEMBER. JACOB. THANK YOU. JUST JUST TO MAKE SURE I'VE GOT MY BABIES AND BATHWATER AND DUCKS IN A ROW. THAT PLANNING COMMISSION AMENDMENT IS JUST THAT. FOOTNOTE RIGHT ON PAGE PER PAGE IS PAGE TWO CORRECT OF THE LEGISLATIVE VERSION? OKAY. SO IF WE WANTED TO MAKE A CHANGE TO THAT OR TWEAK THAT, IT WOULD BE IN THAT FOOTNOTE WHERE WE COULD DO THAT OR JUST PUT A P IN THE ARM AND THEN IT WOULD ELIMINATE THEY COULD DO IT EITHER WAY. RIGHT. WELL I WOULD, I WOULD YEAH. OKAY. I'LL SAVE THAT FOR AFTER THE PUBLIC HEARING. SO. OKAY I SEE NO OTHER LIGHTS. SO WE'LL MOVE ON TO THE PUBLIC HEARING PORTION. IF THERE IS ANYONE HERE THAT WOULD WISH TO SPEAK TO THIS AGENDA ITEM, PLEASE COME FORWARD. SEEING NONE. MR. ANDERSON, ANY LUCK ONLINE? THERE ARE TWO INDIVIDUALS ONLINE, NEITHER OF WHOM HAVE RAISED THEIR HAND. THANK YOU. OKAY, WE'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND BRING IT BACK TO THE COUNCIL FOR FURTHER DISCUSSION OR EMOTION. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON, IF THERE'S NO DISCUSSION, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT'S IN ORDER. GO AHEAD. I MOVE TO APPROVE ORDINANCE NUMBER 25. 23 AMENDMENTS TO MULTIPLE SECTIONS OF WEST JORDAN CITY CODE TITLE 13 TO PERMIT SHORT TERM RENTALS AND UPDATE A RELATED. RELATED DEFINITION. SECOND, WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON, A SECOND BY COUNCIL MEMBER LAMB. ANY DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION? COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB I SEE NOW HERE COMES THE DISCUSSION. I WOULD I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT FOOTNOTE CHANGED TO JUST INSTEAD OF PERMITTED. IF LOT OR PARCEL IS OWNED BY APPLICANT TO PERMITTED WITH THE PERMISSION OF THE OWNER OF THE LOT OR PARCEL. SO THAT SO THAT IF IT'S A MOBILE HOME THAT IS OWNED, BUT THE PARCEL IS LEASED, THE LAND UNDERNEATH IT IS LEASED, THEY COULD STILL RENT OUT THEIR MOBILE HOME IF THEY HAVE PERMISSION OF THE UNDERLYING LANDOWNER. JUST BECAUSE I CAN JUST SEE PLACES WHERE THAT WOULD WHERE WHERE A MOBILE HOME PARK MIGHT WANT TO ALLOW THAT. IN THEIR MOBILE HOME DEVELOPMENT, YOU KNOW. SO AND I AND I WOULD HATE TO JUST KILL IT FOR, FOR ALL OF THEM AND[00:25:04]
SEPARATE KIND OF TWO CLASSES OF PEOPLE. THAT'S JUST WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE. I'LL, I'LL, I'LL VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION IF YOU DON'T WANT TO CHANGE IT, BECAUSE IT'S A GIANT LEAP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION AND WE CAN TWEAK IT. YOU KNOW, IF THIS SITUATION COMES UP IN THE FUTURE, IF WE WANT TO. I'M GOING TO ASK MR. CHANDLER IF WHAT YOU'VE HEARD IS WORKS. ARE YOU ASKING, AS IN, CAN WE MAKE THAT AMENDMENT OR ARE YOU ASKING IS LEGAL LEGALLY OKAY, LEGALLY? DOES THAT WORK? YEAH, LEGALLY IT WOULD BE FINE. ALL THAT WE'RE DOING IS JUST CHANGING IT FROM OWNERSHIP TO PERMISSION THERE. I THINK THERE'S PROBABLY AN ARGUMENT TO SAY THAT THE PERMISSION PART IS ALREADY IMPLIED, BECAUSE IF SOMEBODY DOESN'T HAVE PERMISSION TO DO IT, THEN THEY CAN'T DO IT.BUT THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING TO, YOU KNOW, BE ADJUDICATED BETWEEN THE PROPERTY OWNER AND THE LESSEE THERE. BUT IF WE WANTED TO CAPTURE THAT IN THE ORDINANCE, WE COULD CERTAINLY DO THAT WITH LANGUAGE SIMILAR TO WHAT COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB HAS PROPOSED. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. I WAS JUST GOING TO ASK COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB TO GIVE US A SUBSTITUTE MOTION AND WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITH IT. OKAY. ARE YOU WITHDRAWING YOUR MOTION THEN? ALL RIGHT. THEN I'LL GO AHEAD AND MOVE TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 2523 AS WRITTEN. CHANGING THE FOOTNOTE ON PAGE TWO OF THE LEGISLATIVE DRAFT TO SAY PERMITTED WITH PERMISSION OF LOT OR PARCEL OWNER. SECOND. OKAY, WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB. A SECOND BY COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. IS THERE DISCUSSION TO THIS MOTION? COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN MY QUESTION IS NOW WITH THAT CHANGE OF WORDING, DOES THAT RESTRICT. YOU HAVE TO HAVE I MEAN THEY CAN GIVE IT SOUNDS LIKE WHAT THEY NOW HAVE TO DO IS GIVE PERMISSION TO THEMSELVES. I MEAN WHAT WHAT WHAT DO WE EXPECT AS PERMISSION. YOU KNOW WHERE I'M GOING. MR. WELL, IF IT'S BUT IF THEY OWN THE LOT IF THE WELL, THEY DO, BUT IS THE EXPECTATION THAT THERE'S A DOCUMENT THAT SHOWS THAT, WHAT WOULD WE BE TALKING ABOUT THERE. WELL. BEYOND COMMON SENSE, I WOULD SAY THAT IF SO, AND THIS IS JUST ME POSTULATING FOR THE RECORD, I GUESS THIS IS NOT A LEGAL OPINION, RIGHT? IF THE OWNER IS THE OWNER, IF THE OWNER OF THE LAND AND THE OWNER OF THE UNIT ARE THE SAME PERSON, THEN PERMISSION IS. AND I IMAGINE THERE'S LEGAL PRECEDENT FOR THIS, THEN PERMISSION IS EXPLICIT, RIGHT? IF OR IMPLICIT. SORRY, I HAD THE WRONG EXPLICIT THEN OR THEN PERMISSION IS IMPLICIT. IF THEY'RE PUTTING IT OUT FOR A SHORT TERM RENTAL. IF IT'S A DIFFERENT PERSON, THEN THERE WOULD NEED TO BE SOME PROOF OF OKAY. ANYWAY, THAT'S JUST MY SENSE AND A HALF. I THINK ALAN WANTS TO WEIGH IN ON THIS ONE. HE'S HIS MIC HAS BEEN ON THE WHOLE TIME. COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN, DO YOU STILL HAVE SOMETHING? OKAY. ALL RIGHT. IF THERE IS NO FURTHER DISCUSSION, I WILL ASK MR. HALLMARK FOR A ROLL CALL VOTE. BUT BEFORE YOU DO THAT, PROCEDURALLY. OKAY, THERE WAS A MOTION AND A SECOND, AND THEN THERE WAS A SUBSTITUTE MOTION. WAS IT A SUBSTITUTE MOTION OR. I THINK IT WAS JUST A MOTION. WITHDREW. IT WITHDREW. MR. SHELTON WITHDREW HIS MOTION.
BUT THERE WAS A SECOND. CORRECT. THE COUNCIL MODIFIED ROBERT'S RULE SAYS WHEN THERE'S A SECOND, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A MOTION TO WITHDRAW AND A SECOND TO WITHDRAW. THAT ORIGINAL. SORRY TO BE PROCEDURAL, BUT THAT'S THE PROCEDURE. COULD WE NOT HAVE JUST DONE A SUBSTITUTE MOTION WITHOUT HAVING THEM WITHDRAW THEIR MOTION? PARLIAMENTARIAN. YES. YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I THOUGH.
IT A SUBSTITUTE. ARE YOU OKAY WITH THAT? OKAY. WE'RE GOING TO GO WITH THE PERSON THAT MADE THE MOTION IS OKAY WITH A SUBSTITUTE MOTION, WHICH IS WHAT I THOUGHT WE'D DO. BUT THEN IT GOT CHANGED. ALRIGHT. MR. HALLMARK, WILL YOU PLEASE DO A ROLL CALL? VOTE FOR US. I'D BE HAPPY TO CHAIR WHITELOCK. YES. COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN. YES. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. YES. VICE CHAIR.

[a. City Council Reports]
ALONG. WE HAVE REPORTS TO COUNCIL. FIRST UP IS CITY COUNCIL REPORTS. ANYONE HAVE ANYTHING THEY'D LIKE TO SHARE, MR. GREEN? TWO THINGS. ONE. TWO WEEKS. WAS IT TWO WEEKS AGO I DON'T REMEMBER. WE HAD THE AMERICAN, AMERICAN BOY. IT'S BEEN A LONG WEEK. ASSOCIATION OF MUNICIPAL COUNCIL MEETING THAT WE TYPICALLY HOLD. NOW IT'S EVERY OTHER MONTH INSTEAD OF MONTHLY. WE HAD PRESENTATIONS FROM SALT LAKE COUNTY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, AND WE HAD A PRESENTATION ON THE PRE-APPRENTICE PROGRAM IN SALT LAKE COUNTY. I HAVE FORWARDED THAT EMAIL TO ALL OF YOU. THE PRE-APPRENTICE APPLICATION IS AN IS A PROGRAM. SOME OF YOU MAY HAVE SEEN A COUPLE OF POSTS ON FACEBOOK ABOUT IT, BUT IT'S A IT'S A PROGRAM TO HELP PEOPLE LEARN ABOUT CONSTRUCTION TRADES AND GET SOME SOME BASIC INTERVIEWING SKILLS AND THOSE KIND OF THINGS. SO IF YOU KNOW ANYBODY THAT IS INTERESTED IN LEARNING ABOUT THE THOSE THINGS THAT THE PRE-APPRENTICE PROGRAM DOES IN SALT LAKE COUNTY, I WOULD HAVE THEM REACH OUT TO CAMERON SEGURA. HIS INFORMATION IS IN THAT FLIER. IT IT IT LOOKS LIKE AN INTERESTING PROGRAM TO HELP THOSE IN OUR IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, IN OUR IN OUR COMMUNITIES. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, I THERE'S I'LL MAKE A COUPLE OF COMMENTS. ONE, THE WESTERN STAMPEDE WAS GREAT THANKS TO THE STAFF AND ALL OF THEIR WORK. WE HAD THE HIGHEST PAID TRAFFIC CONTROL PERSON IN THE CITY. I'M GIVING CORBIN A HARD TIME. HE WAS OUT THERE EVEN. EVEN CORBIN WAS OUT DIRECTING TRAFFIC. BUT IT IT WAS A GREAT EVENT. I THINK THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT WE LEARNED THAT WE CAN DO BETTER. AND BUT THEY'RE SUCH MINOR THINGS THAT THEY'LL NEVER THEY WON'T AFFECT IT. THE ONE THING THAT I WILL SHARE WITH THE COUNCIL, IF I CAN GET THROUGH THIS OUT WITHOUT BEING TOO EMOTIONAL, IS I WANT TO THANK JENNIE TAYLOR. AND THE MAJOR BRANT TAYLOR FOUNDATION FOR BRINGING THAT FLAG. TO ME. THAT WAS FANTASTIC. BUT WHAT I LEARNED STANDING THERE, AND I KNOW, KAITLYN, YOU WERE ON THE ONE SIDE OF ME. AND IF YOU NOTICED, IF YOU DIDN'T NOTICE STEVE, WHO DOES THE RODEO AND DOES THE DIRT. HE WAS STANDING[00:45:02]
NEXT TO ME AND HE ASKED. BECAUSE I HAD SALUTED THE FLAG FOR THE NATIONAL ANTHEM. HE ASKED WHERE I'D SERVED, AND I TOLD HIM IN THE ARMY FOR 40 YEARS. AND THEN HE TOLD ME. A LITTLE BIT ABOUT HIS SERVICE. IN VIETNAM. FOR WITHOUT HIM, WITHOUT HIM EMBARRASSING HIM, HE TOLD ME THAT WITH HIS SERVICE IN VIETNAM, HE WAS PART OF THE 82ND AIRBORNE AND THAT HE HAD THREE PURPLE HEARTS AND TWO SILVER STARS. I DID NOT REALIZE. THAT WE HAD SUCH A TRUE AMERICAN HERO IN OUR MIDST. AND. KNOWING HOW THOSE. VETERANS WERE TREATED WHEN THEY CAME HOME. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I EXPRESS MY GRATITUDE TO HIM. AND EVEN THOUGH IT MAY BE 50 YEARS LATE, WELCOME HOME. THANK YOU, COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. WELL, I DON'T WANT TO STEAL ANY THUNDER FROM COUNCIL MEMBER BADER THAT HE AND I HAD SOME GREAT FUN CALLING. BINGO. I CALLED THREE DAYS, THREE, ONE HOUR SHIFTS, CALLING BINGO, AND ANY OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS WHO DIDN'T HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT. I ENCOURAGE YOU TO DO SO. IT'S A GREAT WAY TO ENGAGE WITH THE COMMUNITY. ALSO, ANOTHER GREAT THING WITH THAT WE DID WAS DRIVING THE COUNCIL CART AROUND.JUST HAD A GREAT TIME WITH THAT. ANOTHER FUN WAY TO ENGAGE WITH THE WITH THE COMMUNITY, WITH PEOPLE WHO WE WOULDN'T NORMALLY BE ABLE TO TALK TO OR WOULDN'T NORMALLY COME TO A MEETING LIKE THIS. AND DURING THE BINGO, WE WERE RUNNING LOW ON PRIZES. SO I SAID TO. COUNCIL MEMBER BADER, I SAID, HEY, WE COULD JUST GIVE OUT FREE TICKETS TO A CITY COUNCIL MEETING. WE'VE GOT LOTS OF SEATS. SO THAT WAS THAT WAS WHAT WE HAD A LOT OF FUN. I WAS REALLY IMPRESSED WITH THE HAVING THE DINNER INSIDE THE NEW ART CENTER DURING THE WESTERN STAMPEDE RODEO. I FELT LIKE THE ART CENTER SERVED REALLY WELL FOR THAT. OF COURSE, THE WESTERN STAMPEDE RODEO WAS JUST INCREDIBLE, AND I NOTICED AFTER THE RODEO WAS OVER THAT THE TRAFFIC WAS SEEMED MUCH BETTER, AT LEAST TO ME. I MEAN, IT'S JUST ANECDOTAL EVIDENCE, BUT I FELT LIKE IT WAS MUCH BETTER AND I WAS GRATEFUL TO CHIEF WALLENTINE AND ALL HIS OFFICERS WHO WHO WORKED TO MAKE THAT CHANGE, TO MAKE CHANGES THERE. I AM CURRENTLY PARTICIPATING IN MEETINGS WITH THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT, LISTENING TO APPLICANTS AND GIVING FEEDBACK. I AM A NON-VOTING MEMBER OF THAT BOARD, BUT I'LL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE ON IT HERE ON COUNCIL. WHEN IT COMES BEFORE THE COUNCIL. AND I THINK THAT'S ALL I WANTED TO SHARE WITH THE COUNCIL AT THIS TIME. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER I WILL VICE CHAIR ACTUALLY VICE CHAIR. SORRY. COUNCIL MEMBER I WANT TO I WANT TO JUST ALSO ECHO SOME OF THE COMMENTS THAT JUST WHAT A GREAT, GREAT WEEKEND WE HAD FOR THE CITY. I THINK THIS THAT WAS THE KIND OF THING THAT SHOWS WHAT WEST JORDAN CAN DO WHEN WE WANT TO PUT ON SOMETHING AND WE CAN ALL COME TOGETHER AND MAKE IT WORK. I SHOULD SAY THAT.
THAT COUNCILMEMBER SHELTON DID OFFER A FREE TICKET TO THE WINNER OF THE BINGO TO COUNCIL, BUT I SAID SECOND PLACE GETS TWO TICKETS AND THIRD PLACE GETS THREE TICKETS. WE HAD A LOT OF
[00:50:06]
FUN WITH THE BINGO. ALSO, I SPENT TIME CALLING BINGO WITH CHAIR WHITELOCK. THAT WAS JUST A LOT OF FUN. I LOVE IT BECAUSE IT WAS A GOOD CHANCE FOR US TO INTERACT. I WOULD MAKE SURE THAT I WAS ALWAYS TELLING PEOPLE THAT IF YOU KNOW WE'RE HERE, ONCE THIS IS DONE, COME TALK TO US AND LET US KNOW IF YOU HAVE CONCERNS, IF YOU HAVE THINGS, OR ESPECIALLY IF YOU'D LIKE TO JUST SAY THAT YOU'RE HAPPY WITH THINGS. WE REALLY LIKE TO HEAR THAT. AND I DID HAVE PEOPLE COME UP AND TALK TO ME ABOUT THINGS AND, AND IT WAS NEAT. AND I'VE GOT PLENTY OF NOTES OF THINGS I'VE GOT TO CHECK UP ON, SO I'LL DO THAT. BUT MY FAVORITE PART OF THE WHOLE TIME IS DRIVING THE COUNCIL CART AND PICKING UP PEOPLE AND JUST TALKING TO THEM WHILE WE WENT. ALTHOUGH THE FRIDAY WHEN IT WAS RAINING, I WAS DRIVING AROUND LIKE A MAD MAN TRYING TO GET PEOPLE OUT OF THE RAIN. AND IT'S SUCH A WEIRD THING TO OFFER. YOU KNOW, OFFER THEM A RIDE IN A VEHICLE THAT'S COMPLETELY OPEN TO ALL THE ELEMENTS THAT ARE. AT LEAST I WAS ABLE TO GET THEM QUICKER TO WHERE THEY NEEDED TO GO. BUT I THINK THAT THAT ALSO JUST SHOWED HOW MUCH OUR EVENTS TEAM WAS READY TO JOIN IN AND HELP OUT AND DO THINGS WHEN THE WEATHER GOT BAD AND IT WASN'T THE PERFECT WEATHER AND PERFECT THINGS. I THINK THAT THEY DID A LOT OF GREAT, GREAT WORK THERE.SO I JUST WANT TO REALLY PRAISE OUR STAFF AND OUR CITY AND EVERY ONE OF THE VOLUNTEERS. I TRIED TO GO AROUND AND THANK ALL OF THEM PERSONALLY AS MUCH AS I COULD AND I, I JUST, LIKE I SAID, REALLY LOVE IT WHEN THE CITY COMES TOGETHER AND DOES SOMETHING THAT IS SO COMMUNITY BASED AND BECOMES THAT. SO THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER LAMB, FIRST OF ALL, I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO ALL THE COUNCIL MEMBERS FOR ALL YOU DO FOR THE RODEO AND FOR THE PARADE. SO IT'S ALWAYS GREAT TO BE TOGETHER AS A TEAM AND TO BE ON THE COUNCIL. AND, AND EVEN THOUGH THE MAYOR'S A DIFFERENT DEPARTMENT, I FEEL LIKE HE'S PART OF OUR TEAM AS WELL. SO THANK YOU, MAYOR, FOR DOING THAT. I STILL GOT TO FIND A BETTER WAY TO THROW OUT CANDY. NOT NOT SURE IF I'M A FAN OF THAT STILL, BUT I STILL LIKE WALKING THE PARADE ROUTE, SO THAT'S FUN. I DID HAVE A FRIEND OF MINE THAT'S NOT FROM WEST JORDAN ATTENDED RODEO AND HE SAID IT WAS GREAT. HE SAYS HE GOES TO THE RODEO ALL THE TIME, AND HE SAYS THAT OUR RODEO IS JUST AS GOOD. YOU ALWAYS HEAR FROM OTHER PEOPLE LIKE THE RODEO WORLD FAMOUS. IT'S SO GREAT. AND I'VE ACTUALLY BEEN UP THERE ONCE AND IT IS A GOOD RODEO. BUT IT'S NOT LIKE HANDS ABOVE OUR RODEO. I THINK WE PROVIDE A SIMILAR EXCITING RODEO. IT'S DIFFERENT, AND OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT IN A LITTLE TOWN, IT'S IN A BIG SUBURB. BUT YOU KNOW, OUR RODEO 70 YEARS PLUS, YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT. AND THEN THANK YOU TO YOUR STAFF AS WELL FOR THE VIP ROOM WITH THE DINNER, I THOUGHT IT WAS REALLY GREAT TO HAVE THAT AIR CONDITIONED ROOM AND NOT A HOT TENT. AND I THINK THE VIP PEOPLE DID DID ENJOY THAT AS WELL. ONE THING I WILL SAY IS I DID HEAR AND I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE HEARD THIS FEEDBACK, LIKE THE CONTESTANTS PROBABLY WOULD RATHER HAVE THEIR FOOD BACK OVER BY THE RODEO NEXT YEAR INSTEAD OF IN THAT, IN THAT, IN THAT ROOM. BUT THAT'S SOMETHING YOU GUYS CAN DISCUSS WITH YOUR TEAM AND SEE IF THAT MAKES MORE SENSE. AT THE CONTESTANTS BACK OVER, PICKING UP THEIR FOOD BY THE RODEO GROUNDS. THAT WASN'T ME. THAT WAS JUST I HEARD FROM CONTESTANTS AND THE PEOPLE THAT WERE HANDING OUT FOOD TO CONTESTANTS SAID, WELL, WE'D RATHER GET OUR FOOD BACK OVER WHERE WE DID BEFORE. SO JUST, JUST, JUST A LITTLE SNIPPET IF YOU WANT TO TALK TO YOUR TEAM ABOUT THAT. SO BUT THANK YOU ALL. COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB, LEST THEY BE THE ONLY ONE NOT COMMENTING ON THE EVENTS OF THE WESTERN STAMPEDE. FIRST OF ALL, OBVIOUSLY, OF COURSE, A HUGE KUDOS TO THE STAFF. IT'S A HOLIDAY WEEKEND FOR EVERYBODY ELSE, BUT OUR STAFF GOES AND IT'S LIKE OVERTIME WEEKEND FOR THEM AND IT'S EXTRA WORK AND IT'S MONTHS OF PREPARATION. AND SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE THANKS OF THE COUNCIL ARE CONVEYED. IT'S JUST COOL TO SEE, YOU KNOW, OUR EVENT STAFF JUST STEPPING UP AND JUST DOING IT GETS BETTER EVERY YEAR I THINK.
AND THIS YEAR I THINK IT TOOK SOME SEVERAL LEAPS FORWARD WITH THE ART CENTER AS PART OF IT.
HAVING THAT BUILDING IN THAT ROOM WAS GREAT, BUT ALSO THEN IT FREED UP SPACE TO KIND OF MOVE THE FOOD TRUCKS OUT A LITTLE BIT FROM THE ARENA. SO THERE'S A LITTLE MORE SPACE TO WALK AROUND AND GET AROUND. THE LAYOUT JUST SEEMED REALLY GOOD. IT JUST SEEMED LIKE LIKE EVERYTHING FLOWED MUCH BETTER THAN IT HAS IN THE PAST. SO I THINK THAT WAS THAT WAS REALLY, REALLY WELL DONE. AND SHOOT, I HAD ANOTHER THOUGHT AND I KNOW I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS, BUT I'M SURE IT WAS SOMETHING RELATED TO THAT. AND IT WAS. ANYWAY, GREAT WEEKEND, A LOT OF FUN. I DID STAY FOR THE RODEO MORE THAN I EVER HAVE IN THE PAST. I'M NOT A RODEO GUY. I COULDN'T TELL YOU A GOOD RODEO FROM A RODEO, FROM AN RODEO FROM A SPANISH FORK RODEO, OR ANYBODY ELSE. TO ME, IT'S
[00:55:07]
GUYS ON HORSES THAT ARE TRYING TO GET THE GUYS OFF THE HORSES, AND THAT'S REALLY KIND OF I CAN'T TELL ONE FROM THE OTHER, BUT LOOK GOOD TO ME. WE STAYED, I STAYED SATURDAY NIGHT, MY FAMILY ATTENDED AND SO WE HUNG OUT WITH THEM FOR A LITTLE MORE THAN HALF OF THE RODEO. AND IT WAS GOOD. SO GOOD TIMES, GREAT FUN. THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE STAFF AND EVERYTHING YOU GUYS DO. WE SHOULD DO COUNCIL NEXT YEAR. THE SIX, THE SEVEN OF US. COUNCIL. YEAH. CAN YOU GET SOME BIG SHEEP? I ACTUALLY DON'T THINK THEY ALLOW OUR AGE TO PARTICIPATE. THEY'RE PRETTY PRETTY REFINED IN WHO CAN PARTICIPATE IN THAT GREAT EVENT. SOME OF THOSE POOR CHILDREN WERE AWFULLY MUDDY ON THE 4TH OF JULY, AS HAS BEEN CONVEYED. THE 4TH OF JULY WAS GREAT. WE APPRECIATE ALL THAT STAFF DID. I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE THAT. I HAVE LEARNED I DID. I WAS NOT HERE LAST YEAR. THIS YEAR I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CALL BINGO GLORY AND I HAD A GREAT TIME LAUGHING MOSTLY AT ME BECAUSE THERE ARE SOME VERY EXPERIENCED PLAYERS THAT COME TO OUR BINGO THING AND THEY, THE ONE LADY CAME UP AND CONVEYED HOW GRATEFUL SHE IS THAT WE RUN OURS THE WAY WE RUN IT AND NOT THE WAY RIVERTON DOES. APPARENTLY AFTER YOU WIN, YOU HAVE TO LEAVE THE PREMISE TO COME BACK TO GET ANOTHER CARD. SO SHE WAS GRATEFUL TO BE ABLE TO. I MEAN, THEY BRING SNACKS, THEY STAY THE WHOLE TIME AND THEY'RE FUN. IT WAS FUN. CERTAINLY LEARNED TO PUT A LITTLE MORE FUN INTO IT. FROM VICE CHAIR BADOR. SO IT'S IT WAS GREAT. I DO WANT TO CONVEY TO THE MAYOR ON SOCIAL MEDIA SOMEONE WAS COMPLAINING BECAUSE BASICALLY THEY WERE GETTING SCAMMED, WHICH IS WHAT OUR RESIDENTS POINTED OUT TO THEM, THAT THAT NO, WE DON'T ACTUALLY CHARGE THAT MUCH FOR OUR RODEO TICKETS. SO YOU'RE PROBABLY GETTING SCAMMED. BUT THEY WERE VERY HAPPY TO LEARN THAT THERE WERE FREE THINGS. AND I THANK THE COUNCIL FOR THAT, THAT WE THAT WE DO HAVE ACTIVITIES AND PERFORMERS AND STUFF THAT YOU CAN COME AND ENJOY OUR TOWN CELEBRATION WITHOUT SPENDING MONEY. AND, AND BINGO IS PART OF THAT. SO THANK YOU. NEXT UP IS OUR COUNCIL OFFICE REPORT, MR. ANDERSON. THANK YOU. THIS HAS BEEN PROBABLY MY BUSIEST MEETING. MODERN CONVENIENCES. THEY'RE JUST WONDERFUL WHEN THEIR CONVENIENCE. BUT I WOULD LIKE TO PUBLICLY EXPLAIN TO THE COUNCIL AND THE RESIDENTS THAT ARE HERE WITH, WITH THE POWER BUMPS, WHY THE MONITORS AREN'T ON. SO WE HAVE BEEN ON GENERATOR POWER, WE'VE BEEN ON THE BATTERY POWER. AND I WANT TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE BATTERY POWER. IT'S GRATEFUL THAT A LOT OF THE EQUIPMENT WE USE IN HERE IS OUT OF THE SERVERS AND TECHNOLOGY, LIKE INTERNET AND THINGS LIKE THAT, AND THOSE BATTERIES ARE INSTANTANEOUSLY. SO DURING THE MEETING, WE HAVE BEEN ONLINE ON ZOOM CONSISTENTLY, AND WE HAVE BEEN ON SWAGGERT CONSISTENTLY. WHAT I WILL TELL YOU IS IF YOU WANT TO WATCH THE POWERPOINTS FOR THIS EVENING, YOU'LL HAVE TO WATCH THEM LATER, BECAUSE WE CAN'T GET THE BIG MONITORS TO TURN ON. AND THERE'S THIS BIG ORANGE EXTENSION CORD BY ME SO THAT WE CAN HAVE AS MUCH STUFF GOING OUT. SO I REALLY APPRECIATE THE MAYOR AND CORBIN AND PAUL FOR HAVING THIS ROOM EQUIPPED, THAT WE CAN CONTINUE THE MEETING AND NOT HAVE TO ADJOURN EARLY. THERE PROBABLY WILL BE A COUPLE GLITCHES FROM WHEN THE POWER WENT OUT IN THE IN THE WORK SESSION, BUT I'M VERY APPRECIATIVE OF YOUR SUPPORT AND THE TECHNOLOGY INVESTMENTS THAT YOU'VE SUPPORTED SO THAT WE CAN CONDUCT THE PEOPLE'S BUSINESS EVEN WHEN WE HAVE POWER BUMPS. SO WITH THAT, I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE. I'M JUST KIND OF GLAD WE'RE TOWARDS THE END, I GUESS. OKAY. THANK YOU, MAYOR BURTON. THANK YOU. I WANT TO[c. Mayor’s Report]
FINISH UP WITH WHAT COUNCIL ALLEN ANDERSON WAS SAYING. SOME MEMORIES. SOME THINGS DON'T CHANGE. SO IT IS REALLY AMAZING THAT WE'RE DOING WHAT WE'RE DOING. WITHOUT POWER, I BELIEVE WE'RE STILL ON GENERATORS. I'LL CHECK THAT AS SOON AS WE GET FINISHED WITH THIS PORTION OF THE MEETING, WHICH I THINK IS WHY PART OF THE THINGS ARE NOT WORKING, BECAUSE THE GENERATORS DON'T POWER EVERYTHING, THEY JUST POWER SOME ESSENTIAL THINGS. AND SO WE HAVE WE STILL HAVE AIR CIRCULATION, BUT THE CHILLERS ARE NOT RUNNING. SO YOU MAY NOTICE THE ROOM IS GETTING WARMER. BUT WHEN YOU GET OUT OF THE HALL, YOU'LL NOTICE EVEN MORE BECAUSE THIS ROOM IS CHILLED TO START WITH ANYWAY. SO THOSE ARE GOOD THINGS. WESTERN STAMPEDE IS GOING TO SHOW YOU A COOL PICTURE OF ALL THE COUNCIL MEMBERS IN THE BACK OF A PICKUP TRUCK. JUST USE YOUR IMAGINATION[01:00:01]
HOW THAT LOOKS. OH IT'S AWESOME. THAT IS AWESOME. YEAH, BUT THE REALLY THING THAT'S REALLY COOL.THEY WERE ALL IN THE SAME COLOR SHIRT. THAT WAS EVERY COUNCIL MEMBER SHOWED UP. I THINK THAT WAS VERY GOOD. THAT'S NOT A COMMON OCCURRENCE. SO THANK YOU COUNCIL. NOT ALL OF THEM.
USUALLY WE'RE MISSING ONE. WELL I, I FEEL LIKE FROM THE TIME YOU AND I WERE ON THE COUNCIL TOGETHER, WE HAD PRETTY GOOD. PRETTY GOOD. WE'VE HAD PRETTY GOOD HAVING ALL OUR COUNCIL MEMBERS THERE. AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR GREAT SUPPORT OF THAT. THE PUBLIC LOVES IT. AND HOW DO YOU CAN YOU TELL IF IT'S A GOOD RODEO? IT'S EASY. IF THEY'RE SMILING, IT'S A GOOD RODEO.
THAT'S HOW I TELL. I SAW LOTS OF SMILES. AND THEN THERE WAS THE OTHER PICTURE I HAVE OF THE FLAG, WHICH WAS IMPRESSIVE. IT WAS TAKEN WITH A DRONE FROM UP ABOVE. SO I WILL SEND THOSE OVER TO YOU SO YOU CAN SEE THOSE PICTURES. OH, IT'S IN YOUR WEEKLY REPORT ALREADY, CORBIN SAID. SO THERE YOU GO. CHECK OUT YOUR WEEKLY REPORT. OKAY. 9000 SAL. THE EAST PORTION WILL BE ALL THE WAY DONE BY THE END OF JULY. ALL THE LANES ARE NOW OPEN. THEY'RE WORKING ON A COUPLE MORE ODDS AND END THINGS THAT ROAD THEY COULD DO DURING THE DAYTIME. SO THEY MAY CLOSE THE LANE HERE AND THERE, BUT THEY'LL KEEP TWO LANES GOING EACH DIRECTION WHEN THEY DO THAT. BUT IT'LL BE 100% DONE BY THE END OF THE MONTH. 9000 SOUTH GOING WEST. WE'LL ALSO BE DONE BY THE END OF THE MONTH. THEY CAN'T CLOSE LANES DURING THE DAY, SO THEY'LL STILL BE DOING THOSE AT NIGHT. THERE'S A FEW THINGS THEY HAVE LEFT TO DO THERE. THE MAIN THING IS YOU SAW THEY STRIPED IT. THOSE STRIPES ARE JUST TEMPORARY. THEY'RE GOING TO GRIND IT DOWN LIKE THEY DID THE OTHER SIDE, AND THEN PUT THE STRIPES IN THE GRINDING. SO THERE'S SNOWPLOWS. DON'T TAKE THEM OFF. BUT SINCE THAT'S UDOT ROAD THEY REALLY DON'T SNOWPLOW VERY OFTEN ANYWAY. SO I'M SORRY I DIDN'T SEE THAT ON HERE ANYWAY. SO THAT'S SO THAT ONE WILL BE DONE ALL THE WAY DONE BY THE END OF THE MONTH. 7800 SOUTH. THAT ONE WILL BE ALL THE WAY DONE BY THE END OF THE MONTH. THEY WERE WORKING ON THE LANDSCAPING TODAY AS I WALKED, WENT OVER THERE AND TOOK A LOOK AT THAT. SO THAT'S GOING TO BE GREAT. SO WE'RE REALLY PLEASED WITH THE WORK THAT'S HAPPENING OVER THERE. SO BASICALLY BY THE END OF JULY, OUR RESIDENTS CAN GET ANY PLACE THEY WANT. AND THIS IS ROCKY MOUNTAIN POWER. WOULD YOU TALK TO HIM FOR ME? AND THEN 13TH WEST, I WISH I COULD SAY THAT'S GOING TO BE ALL THE WAY DOWN BY THE END OF JULY, BUT I CAN'T SAY THAT. BUT I CAN TELL YOU THAT ENBRIDGE WILL GET THAT ALL THE WAY DONE THIS YEAR. OH, I DID SAY IT. SO THAT SHOULD BE ALL THE WAY DONE THIS YEAR. WE HAVE MADE GREAT PROGRESS ON OUR LAND ACQUISITIONS, SO WE WILL BE ABLE TO START MOVING FORWARD ON THAT. WE'RE LOOKING AT END OF THIS YEAR, EARLY NEXT YEAR, DEPENDING ON WHEN ENBRIDGE GETS OUT OF THE WAY. SO THAT SHOULD GO FORWARD. SO FOOD TRUCKS, THEY'RE STILL GOING STRONG. AND WELL I KNOW IT'S A TUESDAY NIGHT BUT IT'S 8:00.
FOOD TRUCKS ARE OVER TONIGHT. TRY THEM NEXT WEEK. SO I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO GO THERE NEXT LAST WEEK. SO IT WAS FUN. OUR NEXT MOVIE IN THE PARK IS COMING THAT UP. AND THIS ONE IS GOING TO BE CALLED IF YOU'RE THINKING IF WHAT IS THAT? THAT STANDS FOR IMAGINARY FRIEND. IT'S A MOVIE ABOUT A GIRL WHO HAD IMAGINARY FRIENDS FROM OTHER KIDS WHO GROW UP AND BECOME ADULTS WHO DON'T HAVE THEM ANYMORE. SO THE FRIENDS GET ABANDONED, AND THEN THIS TAKES THEM OVER. SO THAT'LL BE OUR NEXT MOVIE IN THE PARK. AND FOR THE WE'RE DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT THIS YEAR.
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
[d. City Administrator’s Report]
[01:05:07]
BIT TO SHARE. CHIEF MAXFIELD HUNG AROUND TONIGHT. I'D LIKE HIM TO GIVE YOU A QUICK UPDATE ON WHAT'S HAPPENING, OR HOW THINGS WENT OVER THE 4TH OF JULY WEEKEND. FROM THE FIRE DEPARTMENT PERSPECTIVE. WE MADE IT THROUGH ANOTHER 4TH OF JULY. I'M HAPPY TO REPORT THAT WE HAD VERY FEW FIRE LOSSES. TO BE HONEST, THIS WAS PROBABLY THE QUIETEST 4TH OF JULY THAT I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED IN MY CAREER AS FAR AS RADIO TRAFFIC AND CALL VOLUME THROUGHOUT THE VALLEY, THERE WAS STILL A LOT OF FIREWORKS. AS MOST OF YOU PROBABLY SAW, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS THE RAINSTORM THAT CAME THROUGH A COUPLE HOURS EARLIER, OR BECKY'S BUCKETS AND HER PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGN ABOUT DISPOSING OF FIREWORKS PROPERLY. BUT WE OVER THE PERIOD OF JULY 2ND THROUGH THE FIFTH, WE HAD EIGHT CALLS RELATED TO FIRES, WHICH IS TYPICAL OF ANY OTHER WEEK. FOUR OF THOSE WERE POSSIBLY FIREWORKS RELATED. TWO OF THOSE FOUR WERE DEFINITELY FIREWORKS RELATED, AND ONE WAS A MEDICAL CALL, NOT FIRE. SO IT REALLY WAS A GREAT YEAR FOR US THIS YEAR. I DON'T WANT TO CURSE US BECAUSE WE STILL HAVE THE 24TH COMING, BUT IT WAS A VERY QUIET YEAR FOR THE WEST JORDAN FIRE DEPARTMENT AND ALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENTS IN THE VALLEY, HONESTLY. SO ANY QUESTIONS? OKAY. HANG ON. COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN, JUST WANT TO THANK YOU GUYS FOR RESPONDING TO HARRIMAN. YEP. THEY DID GO. THANK YOU. CHIEF. A COUPLE OTHER THINGS FROM ME. THE MAYOR MENTIONED SKATE PARK. I WANT TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON ALL THINGS HAPPENING OUT AT THE ROCKWOOD PARK AREA. THERE'S A LOT GOING ON OUT THERE OVER THE NEXT MONTH. TOMORROW THE FIELDS WILL GO OUT TO BID THE CONSTRUCTION OF ALL THE SOCCER FIELDS. THAT GOES OUT TO BID TOMORROW. THAT PROJECT WILL START THIS FALL. THE DETENTION BASIN IS WRAPPING UP IN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. THIS IS THE BIG STORMWATER DETENTION BASIN THAT'S BEEN BEING IMPROVED, DEEPENED AND HARDENED. THAT CONTRACTOR HAS BEEN DOING WELL AND THEY'LL FINISH UP HERE QUICKLY IN THE WHEELS PARK. YOU'LL SEE LIGHTS GO IN STARTING NEXT WEEK. BATHROOM SHADE SAILS ARTIFICIAL TURF GOING IN IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS, AND ABOUT THE NEXT 5 TO 6 WEEKS, THE BIKE PARK PORTION OF THE WHEELS PARK WILL WRAP UP AND BE FINISHED AND BE READY TO OPEN, SO WE'LL WANT TO SCHEDULE A RIBBON CUTTING FOR THAT. THE ON MONDAYS. IF YOU EVER GET A CHANCE IN JULY, GO OUT THERE ON A MONDAY MORNING FROM 9 TO 11. THEY RUN A CAMP AT THE WHEELS PARK AND THERE ARE KIDS OF ALL DIFFERENT AGES AND SKILL LEVELS THAT WENT OUT THERE. THIS PAST WEEK. THERE WAS 50 PEOPLE OUT THERE, FAMILIES, KIDS ALL LEARNING TO RIDE SKATEBOARDS. IT WAS REALLY FUN TO WATCH. VERY, VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE STEREOTYPICAL SKATEBOARDERS OR, YOU KNOW, BEATING THINGS UP KIND OF MODEL. AND THIS WAS VERY FAMILY ORIENTED AND IT WAS REALLY GOOD TO SEE. AND OUR PARK IS PERFECT FOR THOSE CAMPS BECAUSE THEY SPREAD OUT AND THEY CAN WORK ON DIFFERENT THINGS IN THE DIFFERENT AREAS. AND THEN YOU WILL ALSO SEE IN TWO WEEKS THE PARKING LOT GETTING RESURFACED AT ROCKWOOD PARK. THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN ON JULY 21ST. AND THE MOUNTAIN VIEW CORRIDOR TRAIL THERE NEAR THE PARK, WILL ALSO GET RESURFACED ON JULY 21ST. SO THAT'S THAT'S EVERYTHING HAPPENING JUST AT RON WOOD. THE WE ARE UNDERWAY WITH THE SECOND COURTROOM PROJECT, THE TEMPORARY COURTROOM SPACE IN THE JUSTICE CENTER IS BEING WORKED ON. THIS IS THE COMMUNITY ROOM WHERE WE USED TO HOLD COUNCIL MEETINGS WHILE THIS WAS BEING REMODELED.WE'RE GOING TO USE THAT AS A TEMPORARY COURTROOM FOR A PERIOD OF TIME DURING THE REMODEL PROCESS. ON JULY 14TH, OUR COURT STAFF WILL ALL WORK FROM HOME WHILE WE WORK ON IMPROVING THE COURT OPERATIONS SPACE. WE WILL NOT HAVE COURT IN THE COURTROOMS THAT WEEK. WE WILL BE ABLE TO HANDLE ALMOST ALL COURT SERVICES, BUT IT WILL BE A LITTLE BIT LIMITED THE WEEK OF JULY 14TH. THE 70TH SOUTH ENTRYWAY. WE HAVE FINAL PLANS. WE'RE GETTING READY TO PUT THAT OUT TO BID. THE MAYOR TALKED ABOUT SOME OF THE OTHER PROJECTS. I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THE WATER TANK OVER AT THE CEMETERY, THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE, THAT TANK. YOU'LL NOTICE THE
[01:10:04]
WALLS ARE DONE. IT'S CAPPED. THE IT'S BEEN WRAPPED. THE STRUCTURE IS DONE RIGHT NOW. THEY'RE STARTING TO POUR THE INTERNAL STAIRS FOR THE WATER TANK. AS SOON AS THAT'S DONE, WE'RE GOING TO START TO FILL THAT WATER TANK UP AND DO TESTING. IF YOU WOULD LIKE A TOUR, HOW MANY OF YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED IN TOURS GOING INSIDE THE TANK NOW THAT IT'S COMPLETE? COUNCILMAN SHELDON OKAY, WE'LL SCHEDULE A TOUR PLAN IN THE NEXT FOUR WEEKS. AN INVITE FOR A TOUR OF THAT CEMETERY. TANK, THIS IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY BEFORE WE FILL IT UP WITH WATER, TO SEE IT FROM THE INSIDE AND THE OUT. YEAH, YOU WON'T NEED SCUBA GEAR TO TAKE A LOOK AT IT THIS TIME. ONE LAST THING. I WANT TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF. OH, THE OAK HIGHLANDS NEIGHBORHOOD ANNEX. THAT WAS OFFICIAL. WE HAVE A MEETING OR A GET TO KNOW YOU MEETING TOMORROW NIGHT WITH THEM. BECAUSE THE HIGHLANDS AREA IS PART OF THE WASATCH FRONT WASTE AND RECYCLING DISTRICT. SPECIAL SERVICE DISTRICT FOR THEIR. THIS IS FOR THEIR SOLID WASTE PICKUP. WEST JORDAN CITY HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO APPOINT SOMEONE TO THE WASATCH FRONT WASTE AND RECYCLING DISTRICT'S GOVERNING BOARD. IF WE WANT TO DO THAT. THE GOVERNING BOARD IS MADE UP OF ALL OF THE PARTICIPATING CITIES, OR ANY CITIES THAT HAVE ANY PORTION OF THEIR JURISDICTION ARE SERVED BY THAT SPECIAL SERVICE DISTRICT. WE DON'T HAVE TO APPOINT SOMEONE TO THAT BOARD, BUT WE HAVE BY STATE STATUTE, WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO APPOINT SOMEONE TO BE ON THAT BOARD. THERE'S CURRENTLY 14 MEMBERS OF THAT BOARD. I'M JUST GOING TO KEEP GOING. 14 MEMBERS OF THAT BOARD, THEY MEET ON THE FOURTH MONDAY OF EACH WEEK AT 9 A.M. IT'S A IT'S A BOARD MADE UP OF ELECTED OFFICIALS. AND OUR APPOINTMENT WOULD BE AN ELECTED OFFICIAL. AND SO ONE OF THE EIGHT OF YOU HERE AND WOULD BE APPOINTED BY RESOLUTION IF WE WANT TO DO THAT. THERE'S NO TIMELINE, THERE'S NO URGENCY, BUT THERE IS THAT AVAILABILITY AND OPPORTUNITY I WANT YOU TO BE AWARE OF. OKAY. I THINK THAT IS IT. YEAH. THAT'S IT FOR ME. ANY QUESTIONS? SO WILL THEY THEY'LL STAY WITH THEY WON'T COME TO OUR SOLID WASTE COLLECTION. THEY'LL JUST ALWAYS STAY SEPARATE. WHEN AN ANNEXATION OCCURS. THE ANNEXATION INTO THE CITY DOES NOT REMOVE THAT AREA FROM ANY SPECIAL SERVICE DISTRICTS THAT THEY'RE IN. SO, FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN PARTS OF OUR CITY ANNEXED INTO WEST JORDAN, IT DIDN'T TAKE THEM OUT OF THE CURRENT SPECIAL SERVICE DISTRICT FOR RECREATION. I GET THE WATER AND ALL OF THAT.BUT THIS ONE, IT DOES NOT LET THEM OUT OF THE WASATCH FRONT WASTE AND RECYCLING DISTRICT BECAUSE, AMONG OTHER THINGS, WOLFE WARD BONDS FOR CAPITAL EQUIPMENT, ASSUMING RATES AND SERVICE DELIVERY FROM A CERTAIN GEOGRAPHIC FOOTPRINT AND NUMBER OF HOMES. AND SO TO GET OUT OF THAT SPECIAL SERVICE DISTRICT IS A SEPARATE ANNEXATION PROCESS, AND IT HAS TO BE APPROVED BY THE GOVERNING BOARD OF THE SERVICE DISTRICT. OKAY. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. THAT BRINGS US TO OUR
[CONSENT ITEMS]
