[CALL TO ORDER]
          [00:00:08]
          EVENING. I'D LIKE TO WELCOME YOU TO WEST JORDAN CITY COUNCIL. WE'RE HAPPY YOU'RE HERE. IF YOU WONDER, OUR RECORDING STARTS. BUT WE CAN'T START OUR MEETING UNTIL THE TIME THAT IS ON OUR AGENDA, WHICH IS 7 P.M. SO THAT'S WHY WE KIND OF JUST ALL SAT HERE FOR A MINUTE TONIGHT. 
          OUR FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS WILL BE THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE. AND MISTER BART ROBBINS HAS OFFERED TO LEAD US IN THAT. I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS. ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. THANK YOU. I WOULD LIKE TO RECOGNIZE SOME STUDENTS. WE HAVE A TEACHER AT WEST JORDAN HIGH SCHOOL THAT ASSIGNS HER CLASS TO COME TO A COUNCIL MEETING, AND TYPICALLY THEY COME THIS TIME OF YEAR, USUALLY ABOUT CHRISTMAS TIME, BECAUSE THE SEMESTER IS GOING TO BE ENDING AND THESE STUDENTS ARE HERE, I DON'T I THINK YOU'VE BEEN IN SCHOOL LESS THAN A FULL WEEK, ACTUALLY. SO WE HAVE SEVERAL OF THEM. SO I COMMEND THEM FOR FOR TAKING IT SERIOUS AND BEING HERE. AND WE WELCOME YOU. THE NEXT ITEM ON OUR 
          [a.
 West Jordan Fire Department Badge Pinning]
AGENDA IS A SPECIAL RECOGNITION. CHIEF MAXFIELD, I BELIEVE YOU'RE HERE. YEAH, THERE YOU ARE. COME ON UP. WE'RE GOING TO RECOGNIZE SOME OF OUR FIRE MEN AND WOMEN. I DON'T KNOW IF I SEE ANY GIRLS OUT THERE TONIGHT, BUT WE DO HAVE SOME, AND WE'LL BE RECOGNIZING ONE TONIGHT. 
          THANK YOU, COUNCIL, FOR GIVING US A LITTLE BIT OF A OPPORTUNITY TO RECOGNIZE OUR PEOPLE AND THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS THAT THEY'VE DONE OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A COUPLE OF BADGE PAINTINGS FOR PROMOTION, AS WELL AS WE'RE GOING TO RECOGNIZE, LIKE WE HAVE IN THE PAST, SOME OF THE INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE RECEIVED A PROFESSIONAL DESIGNATION RELATING TO THE FIRE SERVICE. SO IF I COULD HAVE EVERYBODY THAT'S BEING PINNED OR RECEIVING THAT DESIGNATION COME UP AND WE'LL JUST FORM TWO LINES RIGHT HERE. YEAH. YOU'RE GOOD. SO I'LL START WITH THE PROFESSIONAL DESIGNATIONS. AND I'VE I'VE BROUGHT IT UP IN THE PAST. I'M REALLY PROUD OF OUR DEPARTMENT. THIS WAS SOMETHING THAT THE STATE OF UTAH CAME UP WITH PROBABLY JUST 2 OR 3 YEARS AGO, I THINK. AND WEST JORDAN LEADS THE STATE IN NUMBER OF FIREFIGHTERS WHO HAVE RECEIVED THIS DESIGNATION. IN FACT, CHIEF RENO REACHED OUT TO THE COLLEGE TODAY DOWN AT UVU, AND 170 AWARDS HAVE BEEN GIVEN OUT TOTAL THROUGHOUT THE STATE. AND THIS LAST YEAR, THERE WERE 23 RECEIVED BY WEST JORDAN FIRE DEPARTMENT EMPLOYEES, WHICH ACCOUNTED FOR 40% OF THE AWARDS GIVEN IN THE STATE. SO AND THEN TONIGHT WE ACTUALLY HAVE TWO SPECIAL DESIGNATIONS. WE'VE SO WE'VE GOT THE SUPERVISING FIRE OFFICER. AND THEN WE HAVE A COUPLE OF MEMBERS WHO HAVE ALSO GOT WHAT'S CALLED THEY'RE MANAGING FIRE OFFICER, WHICH IS THE NEXT LEVEL UP. AND THESE WILL BE NUMBERS 18 AND 19 IN THE STATE THAT HAVE RECEIVED THIS DESIGNATION. SO AGAIN, WE'RE LEADING THE PACK AND WE'RE REALLY PROUD OF OUR PEOPLE FOR THE EFFORTS THAT THEY PUT FORTH BY WAY OF RECOGNITION. RECEIVING THEIR SUPERVISING FIRE OFFICE AWARD IS BEN LYNCH ON THIS SIDE? TANNER RUSSELL. WOODY SMITH. 
          AND THEN OUR MANAGING FIRE OFFICER RECIPIENTS ARE JESSE MCKENNA. AND MIKE JENSEN. LET'S GIVE THEM A ROUND OF APPLAUSE AND THEN WE'LL GIVE BACK TO. PROMOTIONS. THIS EVENING WE HAVE ANN WILLIAMS, WHO HAS BEEN PROMOTED TO PARAMEDIC. SHE JUST COMPLETED PARAMEDIC SCHOOL THIS LAST YEAR, AS WELL AS GAVIN DRURY, WHO ALSO JUST COMPLETED PARAMEDIC SCHOOL AND HAS BEEN PROMOTED, AND THEN DAVID GRAY, WHO HAS JUST BEEN PROMOTED TO THE RANK OF CAPTAIN IN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. SO WE'D LIKE TO INVITE THEIR SPOUSES AND I THINK IN DAVE'S CASE, HIS 
          [00:05:02]
MOTHER, TO COME UP AND PIN THEIR BADGES. AND WE'D LIKE TO INVITE ANY FAMILY THAT WOULD LIKE TO COME TAKE PICTURES. YOU CAN COME UP AND TAKE PICTURES. 
          ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. STAY UP HERE. YEAH. GET TOGETHER AND WE CAN GET A PICTURE. AND. DO WE WANT TO? YEAH. JUST. OKAY. COMING UP, THE MAYOR'S GOING TO COME UP AND JOIN US. SO GIVE HIM A SECOND. ALRIGHT. RIGHT HERE. ONE. TWO THREE. OKAY. THANK YOU. IT'S ALWAYS AN EXCITING NIGHT WHEN WE HAVE PROMOTIONS AND NEW NEW FIREFIGHTERS AND NEW PARAMEDICS. 
          [a.
 Risk Management Update]
THAT'S AWESOME. THE NEXT ITEM ON OUR AGENDA ARE REPORTS TO COUNCIL. THE FIRST REPORT TO THE COUNCIL WILL BE FROM RISK MANAGEMENT. MR. DEL BRADY IS WHO I HAVE DOWN THERE. HE IS. 
          PERFECT. ALL RIGHT. GOOD EVENING COUNCIL. GOOD EVENING EVERYONE. MY NAME IS DEL BRADY. 
          I'M THE RISK MANAGER FOR THE CITY. I JOINED THE CITY IN SEPTEMBER OF 21. SO FISCAL YEAR 22. AND WE WANTED TO SHARE WITH YOU AN OVERVIEW OF THE RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM HERE IN THE CITY. IT'S NOT ALWAYS VISIBLE, BUT IT'S ALWAYS OPERATIONAL 24 OVER SEVEN IN FACT. SO THINGS LIKE BARRICADES AND SIGNAGE THAT SAYS HAZARDS AHEAD. RISKS AHEAD. THOSE ARE THE MORE OBVIOUS THINGS. BUT THEN WE ALSO HAVE LESS OBVIOUS THINGS, LESS VISIBLE THINGS LIKE THE INSURANCE POLICIES THAT COVER CITY PROPERTY AND CITY EMPLOYEES, OR THE CONTRACTING LANGUAGE THAT MAKES SURE THAT A PROJECT ENDS IN A POSITIVE WAY FOR THE CITY. SO IN GENERAL, THERE ARE ABOUT FOUR AREAS OF RISK MANAGEMENT IN THE CITY. WE PROTECT OUR CITY EMPLOYEES. WE REDUCE OUR LIABILITY EXPOSURE. WE PROTECT CITY PROPERTY. AND THEN IF THAT PROPERTY IS DAMAGED, WE TRY TO RECOVER THE COST OF THOSE DAMAGES. SO IT'S PROTECTING EMPLOYEES. I WANTED TO SHARE A COUPLE INTERNAL TOOLS THAT WE'VE IMPLEMENTED THAT HELP WITH THAT. WE COLLECT DATA AND WE PROVIDE OUR TEAMS WITH THINGS LIKE THIS HEAT MAP, THIS BODY HEAT MAP THAT HELPS THEM KNOW WHERE HIGH RISK AREAS OF THE BODY ARE, YOU KNOW, WHERE INJURIES MOST OFTEN OCCUR, AND THEN THEY CAN ADJUST THEIR WORK AND BE AWARE OF WHAT THEY NEED TO AVOID. ANOTHER TOOL IS AN ONLINE JOB HAZARD ANALYSIS TOOL THAT WE CALL SLAM, WHICH STANDS FOR STOP, LOOK, ASSESS AND MANAGE, AND OUR WORK TEAMS CAN ACCESS THESE THROUGH THEIR MOBILE DEVICES, AND IT WALKS THEM THROUGH QUESTIONS THAT HELP IDENTIFY CERTAIN RISKS AND HAZARDS IN THE WORK THAT THEY'RE DOING, AND THEN THEY CAN ADJUST ACCORDINGLY TO AVOID THOSE RISKS. SO BY THE NUMBERS, WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO SEE A DECLINE IN THE NUMBER OF WORKPLACE INJURIES IN THE CITY, WHICH IS TERRIFIC. SO YOU CAN SEE IN FISCAL YEAR 22, WE WERE 7.8% OF ALL EMPLOYEES GOT INJURED DURING THAT FISCAL YEAR. AND THAT'S DOWN TO JUST OVER 4% IN FISCAL YEAR 25. SO WE'RE HELPING TO KEEP OUR FOLKS SAFER. WE'RE IMPROVING THE WORKPLACE SAFETY. BUT IT ALSO HAS A FINANCIAL IMPACT. SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WORKER'S COMP INSURANCE USES TO FIGURE OUT HOW MUCH THEY PREMIUM THEY CHARGE IS CALLED AN IMOD. THIS IS A RATING FACTOR. THE MORE INJURIES WE HAVE, THE HIGHER THE IMOD, THE LESS INJURIES WE HAVE, THE LOWER THE IMOD. AND SO YOU'LL SEE THIS BLUE LINE HERE ON THIS GRAPH IS DECLINING AS SOON AS WE HIT BELOW ONE ON THAT IMOD, WE START TO REALIZE SAVINGS IN OUR PREMIUMS. SO AS THIS NEXT SLIDE, YOU CAN SEE MOST RECENTLY FOR FISCAL YEAR 26, WE WERE ABLE TO SAVE ABOUT $136,000 ON OUR WORKER'S COMP PREMIUM. PRIOR YEAR, WE WERE JUST UNDER 16,000. SO AS LONG AS WE'RE KEEPING THAT WORKPLACE SAFETY POSITIVE AND INJURIES DOWN, WE'LL BE ABLE TO SEE CONTINUED SAVINGS ON THAT PREMIUM. NOW, MOVING INTO THE NEXT AREA IS LIABILITY MANAGEMENT. THIS CHART SHOWS 
          [00:10:03]
THE DECLINE IN LIABILITY CLAIMS THAT WE'VE BEEN SETTLING IN THE CITY. SO YOU CAN SEE 48 IN FISCAL YEAR 13 DOWN TO THREE IN FISCAL YEAR 25. THIS IS A BIG, BIG IMPROVEMENT. IT SHOWS A POSITIVE RISK CULTURE. AND IT'S A HUGE THANKS TO THE FIELD TEAMS WHO ARE OUT THERE. IT'S THE FOLKS WHO ENGAGE WITH THE PUBLIC LIKE OUR POLICE AND FIREFIGHTERS, THE FOLKS WHO ENGAGE IN PRIVATE PROPERTY LIKE OUR WATER TEAMS AND OUR PARKS TEAMS. THEY'RE DOING A GREAT JOB WORKING TOGETHER TO REDUCE THAT LIABILITY, RISK EXPOSURE. AS CLAIMS DECLINE, SO DOES THE COST OF SETTLING THOSE CLAIMS. AND SO HERE YOU SEE A FIVE YEAR RUNNING AVERAGE OF THE COST OF SETTLING THOSE CLAIMS. AND WE'RE DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY FROM FY 18 TO FY 25. OUR GOAL IS TO CONTINUE THAT TREND DOWNWARD. NOW THIS AGAIN IMPACTS OUR INSURANCE RATES. AND THE MORE WE IMPROVE OUR RISK MANAGEMENT AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT, THE BETTER CLIENT WE BECOME TO INSURE FROM INSURANCE COMPANIES. AND SO THE COST OF THAT INSURANCE DECLINES. AND THIS CHART SHOWS THE COST TO INSURE EVERY $100 OF OPERATING CITY BUDGET. SO IN 2024 WE WERE AT 0.86%, WHICH IS TERRIFIC. THAT MEANS IT'S COSTING LESS THAN A DOLLAR TO INSURE THAT $100 OF OPERATING BUDGET. MOVING TO THE NEXT AREA OF RISK MANAGEMENT IS PROTECTING CITY PROPERTY. NOT SURE IF YOU'RE AWARE, BUT WE HAVE OVER $230 MILLION WORTH OF CITY PROPERTY. THESE ARE BUILDINGS, FACILITIES, CONSTRUCTION LIKE WATER TANKS, RODEO GROUNDS. WE HAVE AN INSURANCE POLICY TO COVER THAT, BUT EVEN MORE SO, WE HAVE DAY TO DAY EFFORTS TO HELP PROTECT THAT PROPERTY. THESE ARE REGULAR INSPECTIONS. THESE ARE FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEMS. AND THEN WE EVEN CONSULT WITH EXPERTS TO UNDERSTAND WHERE OUR BLIND SPOTS, WHAT DO WE NEED TO IMPROVE ON. IN FACT, OUR SAFETY SPECIALIST, TYLER BAUMGARTNER, SHE USED TO WORK FOR THE UTAH OSHA OFFICE. SO SHE'S A GREAT ASSET TO OUR TEAM. SHE'S ABLE TO HELP US RECOGNIZE SOME OF THOSE AREAS OF RISKS THAT MAYBE WE WOULD HAVE MISSED OTHERWISE. IF THAT PROPERTY IS EVER DAMAGED, THEN WE WORK ON SEGREGATING THE COST OF THOSE DAMAGES. THAT MEANS RECOVERING THE COST OF THOSE DAMAGES FROM WHOEVER WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR COMMITTING THEM. HERE WE'VE GOT THREE EXAMPLES. OFTEN, UNFORTUNATELY, WE SEE DAMAGE TO INFRASTRUCTURE LIKE COPPER THEFT AND CITY STREET LIGHTS AND FIRE HYDRANT. WHENEVER THAT HAPPENS, I WORK WITH POLICE DEPARTMENT, FIRE DEPARTMENT, WATER TEAM, WHOEVER IT IS THAT'S INVOLVED, TO FIGURE OUT WHO CAUSED THE DAMAGE AND THEN TO PURSUE THEIR INSURANCE SO THAT WE CAN RECOVER THOSE COSTS. 
          NOW, BY THE NUMBERS, THIS NEXT TABLE I WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU SHOWS THE CORRELATION BETWEEN HOW MUCH WE'RE RECOVERING VERSUS HOW MUCH DAMAGE WE INCURRED. THE RED LINE IS WHAT WE INCURRED IN TERMS OF DAMAGES. SO FY 21 WE HAD JUST OVER 130 IN DAMAGES. THE BLUE LINE IS WHAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO RECOVER. SO AGAIN IN FY 21 WE'RE ABLE TO RECOVER ALMOST 103,000 OF THAT. 
          THOSE DAMAGES. NOW WE HAVE A THREE YEAR WINDOW TO RECOVER DAMAGE. SO WE'RE GOING TO KEEP WORKING ON RECOVERING EVEN PAST YEARS AS LONG AS THAT WINDOW IS OPEN. BUT YOU CAN SEE THE TREND. 
          THAT'S WHAT WE WANT TO SEE. WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO RECOVER AS MUCH AS WE CAN AND WHAT WE INCURRED IN DAMAGES. CAN I ASK A DUMB QUESTION? WHY WAS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE FY 23 WAS KIND OF MORE OF AN ANOMALY? WHAT CAUSED THAT SUCH A A HIGH RATE IN THE DAMAGE? THE PROPERTY IN FY 23, THAT WAS THE YEAR WHERE WE HAD A MAJOR WASTEWATER EVENT CAUSED BY A CONTRACTOR. AND SO WE WORKED ON SEGREGATING WHAT THE CITY HAD PAID OUT TO RESOLVE THAT ISSUE, TO STEP IN WHEN THE CONTRACTOR WAS AVAILABLE TO DO THAT. YEAH. NOW, ULTIMATELY, WE EXIST RIGHT AT THE CITY TO SERVE THE RESIDENTS AND THE COMMUNITY. AND SO CUSTOMER SERVICE IS A CRITICAL PART OF HOW WE RUN THE RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM. I WANTED TO SHARE SOME FEEDBACK FROM SOME RESIDENTS AFTER WE WERE ABLE TO HELP THEM THROUGH SOME DIFFICULT THINGS. SO MR. AND MRS. GREAVES, AFTER THERE WAS SOME DAMAGE TO THEIR FENCE, THEY SAID, I DO APPRECIATE THE FENCE BEING FIXED AND YOUR TEAM BEING SO EASY AND HELPFUL TO WORK WITH. I WAS IMPRESSED THAT I WAS CONTACTED THE FOLLOWING DAY AND THEN AFTER A MAJOR STORMWATER EVENT, MR. NIEBUHR RESPONDED TO US WITH SOME POSITIVE FEEDBACK. HE SAID THANKS FOR ALL YOUR WORK ON THIS MESS. GRATEFUL FOR WEST JORDAN STEPPING UP. AND THEN MR. AND MRS. LARUE HAD A DANGEROUS TREE SITUATION THAT WE WERE ABLE TO HELP WITH, AND THEY SAID, THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP ON THIS AND FOR STEPPING UP WHEN THE TREE CONTRACTOR DID NOT. WEST JORDAN CITY REMAINS ON OUR CHRISTMAS CARD LIST. AND THEN LAST, MR. WHITCHURCH, WE HELPED HIM WITH A WATER LINE ISSUE AND HE SAID, THANK YOU 
          [00:15:06]
FOR THE PROMPTNESS AND EXCELLENT TEAM RESOLUTION. I AM GRATEFUL AND BLESSED TO LIVE IN WEST JORDAN. THAT'S THE KIND OF FEEDBACK I'D LIKE TO HEAR FROM OUR RESIDENTS AND HAPPY TO BE A PART OF IT. ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB. IT'S NOT SO MUCH A QUESTION, BUT JUST A COMMENT AND A WAY TO GO. THE THE INCIDENT OR THE THE YEAR THAT COUNCIL MEMBER GREENE POINTED OUT, WITH THE SPIKE BEING ABLE TO BE TRACED TO ONE INCIDENT, SHOW THAT WE HAVE A REALLY GOOD SAFETY CULTURE BECAUSE ONE INCIDENT CAN SET OFF A SPIKE, WHEREAS IF YOU WERE LIKE LOS ANGELES, ONE INCIDENT IS NOT GOING TO BE A BLIP ON THE RADAR, RIGHT, OR NEW YORK CITY OR SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, LIKE THAT. SO WE HAVE A GREAT CULTURE. SO THAT'S THAT'S JUST INDICATIVE, I THINK OF, OF, YOU KNOW, AMONG ALL THE OTHER SLIDES THAT YOU INDICATED WITH THE POSITIVE TRENDS OR POSITIVE TRENDS AND RISKS. SOUNDS BAD. SO I WOULD SAY, YOU KNOW, GOOD DOWNWARD TRENDS, POSITIVE DOWNWARD TREND. YEAH. JUST IT SEEMS TO INDICATE THAT THAT THINGS ARE ON THE RIGHT TRACK. SO I APPRECIATE THAT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ANYTHING ELSE I SEE. 
          NO OTHER LIGHTS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU FOR THE WORK THAT YOU'RE DOING. THANK YOU. 
          [b.
 Justice Court Update]
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. NEXT ITEM ON OUR AGENDA IS A JUSTICE COURT UPDATE BY MR. LEE COUNCIL. 
          I JUST WANT TO GIVE YOU A QUICK UPDATE ON WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH OUR JUSTICE COURT. AS YOU'RE AWARE, WE PASSED A RESOLUTION AS A CITY A FEW MONTHS AGO TO WORK TO MERGE OUR JUSTICE COURT SERVICES WITH THAT OF TAYLORSVILLE. I WANT TO TELL YOU WHERE THINGS STAND TODAY. 
          SINCE THE START, SINCE THAT RESOLUTION, WE HAVE ON JULY 1ST, THE TAYLORSVILLE COURT EMPLOYEES BECAME WEST JORDAN EMPLOYEES. THEY'RE STILL OPERATING IN TAYLORSVILLE CITY HALL, SO THEY'RE OPERATING OFF SITE, BUT THEY ARE NOW WEST JORDAN EMPLOYEES. THIS IS ALL OF THE COURT CLERKS OVER THERE. EVERYBODY BUT THEIR JUDGE. THEY ARE DOING EXCHANGES WITH OUR CLERKS TO LEARN EACH OTHER'S SYSTEMS. OUR OUR COORDINATION BETWEEN OUR CLERKS AND THE JUDGES IS TAKING PLACE ON A REGULAR BASIS. AND SO FROM A PERSONAL STANDPOINT, THAT IS THAT'S HAPPENED. WE ARE WORKING ON FURTHER COORDINATION ON PROCESSES. WE'VE GOT TO FIGURE OUT A FEW THINGS TO MAKE IRON OUT THE WAY THEY DO THINGS, THE WAY WE DO THINGS AND JUST GET IT TOGETHER. BUT THAT'S GOING VERY WELL. ON OCTOBER 1ST, WE PLAN FOR THE TAYLORSVILLE, THE FORMER TAYLORSVILLE EMPLOYEES TO COME WORK PHYSICALLY IN OUR BUILDING STARTING ON THAT DATE, OCTOBER 1ST. GETTING READY FOR THAT OCTOBER 1ST DATE AND THEIR ARRIVAL OVER HERE. WE HAVE MADE THE COMMUNITY ROOM IN THE JUSTICE CENTER A TEMPORARY COURTROOM. SO THAT WILL BE OUR SECOND COURTROOM THAT IS SET UP AND READY TO GO. WE HAVE ALSO REMODELED THE SPACE WHERE ALL THE EMPLOYEES WORK, SO WE CAN ACCOMMODATE ALL THOSE ADDITIONAL EMPLOYEES. THAT IS SET, THAT'S READY TO GO. STARTING THIS WEEK, WE ARE BEGINNING THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE SECONDARY COURTROOM. WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THE DESIGN, WORKING WITH ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS AND GETTING EVERYTHING READY. WE ARE GOING TO ACT AS THE GENERAL CONTRACTOR, BUT WE ARE HIRING OUT ALL THE SUBS. OUR FACILITY STAFF WILL OVERSEE THAT PROJECT, AND JOE BRYANT WILL BE THE PROJECT MANAGER, AND TRAVIS KIRBY WILL BE THE SUPERINTENDENT IN-HOUSE FOR THAT PROJECT. AND I WILL START IN EARNEST THIS WEEK. OUR GOAL FOR THAT SECOND COURTROOM COMPLETION IS THE END OF THE CALENDAR YEAR. WE HAVE HAD SOME HANG UPS GETTING GOING. I WAS HOPING WE WOULD BE UNDERWAY WITH THAT SECONDARY COURTROOM A LITTLE BIT QUICKER, BUT THAT'S WHERE THAT TIMING STANDS. AND THEN ONCE THAT IS COMPLETE IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF THE NEXT CALENDAR YEAR, WE WILL WORK ON A FEW TECHNOLOGY AND AUDIO VISUAL UPGRADES TO OUR EXISTING COURTROOM BEFORE EVERYTHING IS WRAPPED UP AND COMPLETE. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT WHERE THINGS STAND WITH THE JUSTICE COURT? DOESN'T APPEAR? WE DO. 
          [PUBLIC COMMENT]
THANK YOU, MR. LEE FOR THE UPDATE. APPRECIATE IT. THE NEXT ITEM ON OUR AGENDA IS OUR PUBLIC COMMENT TIME. I DO WANT TO POINT OUT THAT WE HAVE SEVERAL PUBLIC HEARINGS. SO WHILE YOU'RE WELCOME TO TALK TO US ON BOTH TIMES, YOU CAN'T REPEAT THE SAME TOPIC. SO IF I'M HERE TO TALK ABOUT APPLES AND I TALK ABOUT THAT IN PUBLIC COMMENT, THEN I MISS THAT OPPORTUNITY FOR A PUBLIC HEARING. YOU WILL BE GIVEN THREE MINUTES AND YOU CAN SHARE ANYTHING YOU WANT DURING PUBLIC COMMENTS WITH THE COUNCIL. IT'S NOT A BACK AND FORTH, SO WE 
          [00:20:01]
WON'T BE RESPONDING TO YOU, BUT WE'D LOVE TO HEAR WHAT YOU HAVE TO OFFER. AND I KNOW AT LEAST TWO MEMBERS OF THE AUDIENCE WILL BE COMING UP BECAUSE WE SEE THEM FREQUENTLY AND THEY'RE GREAT LADIES. SO THE TIME IS NOW YOURS. COME UP TO THE PODIUM IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE COUNCIL. GOOD EVENING. THANK YOU FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK. GOOD TO SEE YOU ALL. MY NAME IS AMY MATA. I AM A VOLUNTEER WITH A NONPROFIT CALLED BAILING OUT BENJY, AND WE WORKED IN PUPPY MILLS. I WAS GOING TO TALK ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE BUT THE CASE OVER THE WEEKEND OF 97 DOGS BEING SEIZED FROM A HOME IN THE AVENUES IN SALT LAKE CITY IN DEPLORABLE CONDITIONS. I WANT TO WITH THAT CASE, I WANTED TO BRING THAT UP AND TALK ABOUT IT FOR A MINUTE. SO THERE WERE 97 CHIHUAHUA MIX DOGS AND ONE TORTOISE. FOR SOME REASON IN THIS HOUSE, IN THE AVENUES, AND THE ADULTS WERE SELLING THE PUPPIES ON KSL CLASSIFIEDS AND THEY WERE IN DEPLORABLE CONDITION. SALT LAKE COUNTY ANIMAL SERVICES SEIZED THE DOGS AND ARE EVALUATING THEM BOTH MEDICALLY AND BEHAVIORALLY, AND HUMANE SOCIETY OF UTAH HAS STEPPED IN AND TAKEN ABOUT HALF OF THOSE DOGS, SO THEY WILL NEED VACCINES. SOME WILL NEED DENTAL PROCEDURES, SPAY AND NEUTER DE-WORMER ALL THESE THINGS THAT ANY RESPONSIBLE DOG OWNER SHOULD DO. AND PART OF MY WORK WITH BAILING OUT BENJI AND WHAT WE DO IS TO ENCOURAGE CONSUMERS TO DO THEIR HOMEWORK WHEN THEY DECIDE TO ADD A PUPPY TO THEIR HOME. SOME OF THE THINGS PEOPLE SHOULD LOOK FOR WHEN BUYING A PUPPY. FIRST OF ALL, DON'T BUY THEM FROM A STORE, RIGHT? THEY SHOULD GO SEE THE LIVING CONDITIONS OF THE DOGS, THE MOM AND DAD DOGS. THEY SHOULD HAVE CLEAN, SPACIOUS ENVIRONMENTS WITH PERSONAL CARE THAT WAS NOT DONE IN THIS CASE. THIS IS A BIG PUPPY MILL AS BAD A PUPPY MILL. SORRY AS THE BIG PUPPY MILLS IN THE MIDWEST THAT SELL THEIR PUPPIES TO STORES LIKE THE PUPPY STORE IN JORDAN LANDING. IN ADDITION, YOU SHOULD SIGN A CONTRACT WITH THE BREEDER. THEY SHOULD BE FAIR PRICE PRICES. THERE SHOULD BE TRANSPARENCY WITH THE BREEDING PRACTICES, AND THERE'S A WHOLE LIST ON THE WEBSITE OF WHAT YOU CAN DO TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE NOT FUNDING THIS ANIMAL CRUELTY IN WHETHER IT'S EVIDENTLY YOUR NEIGHBOR DOWN THE STREET IN THE AVENUES. SO A BIG BURDEN TO THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF UTAH, AS WELL AS THE SALT LAKE COUNTY. SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. I'M ANNE MARIE BARRETT, THE MANAGER OF THE BINGHAM CREEK LIBRARY. AND I'M JUST HERE TO SHARE A FEW FUN THINGS ABOUT THE LIBRARY AND WHAT WE'VE GOT COMING UP.

I JUST HAVE SOME QUESTIONS THAT I WANTED TO BRING UP REGARDING THE VISIONARY SQUARE THAT'S GOING UP AROUND OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. SOME OF THE NEIGHBORS HAD JUST SOME QUESTIONS ON ESTIMATED STARTING TIME OF THE PROJECT, ESTIMATED FINISH TIME OF THE PROJECT, WHAT THE CONSTRUCTION ROUTE WILL BE, WILL IT BE ENTERING ON 90TH, OR WILL THE CONSTRUCTION VEHICLES BE COMING THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND COMING THROUGH THE SECONDARY ENTRANCE? AND THEN THE FENCE TYPE THAT WILL BE GOING UP, AND WILL IT BE REPLACING THE FENCES THAT ARE ALREADY EXISTING, OR WILL IT JUST BE MADE ON NEXT TO THE FENCES THAT ARE ALREADY EXISTING IN EACH OF THE NEIGHBORS BACKYARDS? THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE? MR. ANDERSON, DO WE HAVE ANYONE ONLINE? THERE'S ONE INDIVIDUAL ONLINE ON THIS IN THE ZOOM MEETING, AND THEY HAVE NOT RAISED THEIR HAND TO SPEAK AT THIS TIME.

          [a.
 Visionary Square – 6.81 acres located at 8871 South 3680 W and 9000 South 3660 and 3680 West Ordinance No. 25-40 a Master Development Agreement Ordinance No. 25-41 a Future Land Use Map Amendment of 6.81 acres to Professional Office and Rezone of 2.9 acres to P-O (Professional Office) zone]
THE FIRST PUBLIC HEARING WE WILL HAVE TONIGHT IS VISIONARY SQUARE AND MR. JOEL FROST, I INVITE YOU TO COME UP AND PRESENT YOUR DEVELOPMENT. OR IF YOU HAVE SOMEONE REPRESENTING YOU, IF THEY'LL TELL ME THEIR NAME AND IF THEY HAVE ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS, THAT WOULD BE GREAT. COME ON UP. GOOD EVENING AND THANK YOU. CHAD JONES REPRESENTING JOEL FROST. AND JOEL IS HERE TO HELP WITH ANY QUESTIONS IF NECESSARY. TO FIRST TO ADDRESS YOUR QUESTIONS. 
          [00:30:03]
WE DO PLAN TO BREAK GROUND AND START CONSTRUCTION ON THIS SPRING OF NEXT YEAR. END DATE. 
          WE PLAN WE INTEND TO PHASE IT. AND SO WE'RE GOING TO START. THE FIRST PHASE IS GOING TO BE ALONG 90TH SOUTH FURTHER AWAY FROM THEM. AND SO THERE'S GOING TO BE VERY LITTLE IMPACT TO THEM, TO THE NEIGHBORS ESPECIALLY THE BEGINNING PHASING WOULD LIKELY DEPEND ON HOW THE MARKET GOES. GO UNTIL 2028 2029 FOR THE FULL BUILD OUT CONSTRUCTION. SORRY, THERE WILL BE ONE INTERRUPTION TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WE NEED TO POINT OUT. WE HAVE BEEN REQUIRED OR REQUESTED FROM PUBLIC UTILITIES TO ADD A STORM DRAIN LINE THAT GOES FROM OUR PROPERTY UP TO THE NORTH END OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, AND SO WE WILL BE PUTTING THAT IN AS REQUESTED. FENCE TYPE. THE FENCE IS ACCORDING TO THE ZONING REQUIREMENTS. WE WILL BE DOING A CONCRETE OR A CONCRETE BLOCK FENCE THAT WILL BE A FULL NO VISIBILITY THROUGH AND A FULL BARRIER PLUS THE LANDSCAPING. THERE IS A LANDSCAPING BUFFER REQUIRED. IF I REMEMBER RIGHT, IT'S 20 TO 30FT, SO THERE'S GOING TO BE A HEALTHY BUFFER FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD. AND I HOPE THAT ANSWERED ALL THE QUESTIONS. CHAD, MAY I MAY I ASK A COUPLE MORE BECAUSE SHE ASKED IF THE FENCE WOULD BE ABUTTING THE CURRENT FENCING OR IF IT WOULD BE REPLACING WILL BE REPLACING THE FENCING. OKAY. AND THEN I KNOW THIS QUESTION WILL COME UP. 
          AND IN FAIRNESS, I LIVE IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD. SO THESE ARE MY NEIGHBORS. I DON'T LIVE CLOSE TO THE PROJECT REALLY, BUT IN IN THE END P MDP THAT WE HAVE, YOU DO HAVE A REQUIREMENT TO PUT UP A GATE. SO YES, I KNOW THE NEXT QUESTION THEY'LL HAVE IS WHEN WILL THE FENCE AND THE GATE GO UP IN THE PHASING? WE ARE OPEN TO WORK TO DO WHATEVER IS BEST AT AMENDMENT WOULD HAVE A CONSTRUCTION FENCE AROUND THE ENTIRE PROPERTY, BUT IF IT'S DESIRABLE TO HAVE THAT FENCE PUT UP FROM DAY ONE, WE'LL WE'LL DO THAT DAY ONE. AND YES, THE THE GATE, THERE WILL BE A GATE THAT WILL PROHIBIT ANY TRAFFIC GOING INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT WILL BE FIRE AND EMERGENCY ACCESS ONLY. THEY WILL HAVE ACCESS THROUGH THAT GATE. RIGHT. IT WILL PREVENT BOTH VEHICULAR AND PEDESTRIAN AND PEDESTRIAN. BOTH. YEAH. THANK YOU. YEP. PLEASE PROCEED. 
          I DID SEND SOME SLIDES. MARK. ARE THOSE. THERE WE GO. SO JUST I'LL RUN THROUGH THESE QUICK. 
          JUST OUR REASONS WHY WE FEEL THAT THIS IS APPROPRIATE FOR THE GOALS AND THE VISION AND THE OBJECTIVES OF THE CITY. FOR THOSE NOT FAMILIAR, THIS IS A LOCATION OFF OF 90TH. NEXT ONE. 
          LEFT SIDE IS THE CURRENT ZONING AND THE RIGHT SIDE, SORRY LAND USE. THE LEFT SIDE IS THE CURRENT LAND USE AND THE RIGHT SIDE IS THE PROPOSED. SO WE KIND OF HAVE THIS SEVEN SHAPE. 
          THE UPPER PORTION OF IT IS CURRENTLY ON THE LAND USE, LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL. BUT ON THE ZONING MAP IT IS ALREADY ZONED AS PROFESSIONAL OFFICE. THE SOUTHERN PORTION IS CURRENTLY ON THE LAND USE MAP AS NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL. WE'RE PROPOSING TO JUST HAVE ALL OF THE CHANGE TO PROFESSIONAL OFFICE AND NEXT ONE. SO IN THE CONSIDERATIONS AND THE REASONS WHY WE FEEL LIKE THIS ALIGNS WITH THE GOALS OF THE CITY, SOME THIS BLACK LINE GOING THROUGH THE MIDDLE IS 90TH SOUTH THAT RUNS FROM END TO END, EAST TO WEST THROUGH THE CITY. 
          AND THEN YOU CAN SEE THEY'RE JUST KIND OF LEFT OF CENTER IS OUR LITTLE SEVEN HIGHLIGHTED IN GREEN THERE. SOME STATEMENTS FROM THE GENERAL PLAN THAT WE POINTED OUT 90TH SOUTH IS THE PRIMARY GATEWAY TO THE CITY AS IT SITS NOW YOU CAN SEE. ABOUT HALF OF IT. PRETTY MUCH HALF OF IT IS A COMMERCIAL OR A PUBLIC FACILITY TYPE. USE. MOST OF THE RESIDENTIAL THAT DOES GO AGAINST 90TH SOUTH IS A FENCE IN THE BACKYARD BLOCKING. SO WE FEEL THAT THIS WILL IMPROVE THE OPEN UP TO MAKE THAT CONTINUE THAT GATEWAY THROUGH THE CITY. ALSO, STATES IN THE GENERAL PLAN PROFESSIONAL OFFICE IS CONSIDERED AN IDEAL BUFFER BETWEEN COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL USES. THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING TO DO. FUTURE LAND USE MAP DETERMINES FUTURE DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS WHICH BUILD UPON EXISTING, ESTABLISHED PATTERNS. 
          YOU CAN SEE IN. MARK POINTED OUT IN HIS REPORT, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS WRITTEN VERY WELL, 
          [00:35:02]
THAT SPECIFICALLY AROUND THIS INTERCHANGE, IT IS DEFINITELY TRENDING TOWARD MORE OF A COMMERCIAL USE OR AN INTERCHANGE OR A BUSINESS USE. AND THEN TOO MANY OPPORTUNITIES FOR MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL. I THREW THIS IN HERE BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS PROJECT FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS, AND ONE DISCUSSION POINT WAS RESIDENTIAL. GOING INTO HERE. 
          UDOT HAD SOME CONCERNS WITH IT. IT DIDN'T SEEM AS FAVORABLE. AND GENERAL PLAN SHOWS THAT THERE'S ALREADY TOO MUCH OF THAT. IT ALSO STATED IN THERE, IN THE GENERAL PLAN, THAT THE RATIO OF RESIDENTIAL TO COMMERCIAL IS TWO HIGHER RESIDENTIAL THAN COMMERCIAL, AND SO THIS WOULD BRING HELP TO BRING THAT MORE IN BALANCE NEXT ONE. AS FAR AS THE REZONE GOES, AGAIN ON THE LEFT IS THE CURRENT. THE ONLY THING WE'D BE LOOKING TO CHANGE IS THE SW ONE, WHICH IS THE NEIGHBORHOOD SHOPPING CENTER TO A PROFESSIONAL OFFICE. THE NEXT ONE. SOME OF THE REASONS FOR THAT, AS WE'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS, ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE IS THE PERMITTED USES FOR NEIGHBORHOOD SHOPPING CENTER. 
          WE'VE LOOKED AT PRETTY MUCH ALL OF THESE. MEDICAL SERVICE WAS ONE THAT WE IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT WOULD BE GOOD WITH THE PROXIMITY OF THE HOSPITAL. UDOT WE'VE HAD TRAFFIC STUDIES DONE, AND UDOT WAS NOT IN FAVOR BECAUSE OF THE TRAFFIC THAT ANY OF THOSE IN THAT THAT ARE PERMITTED USE IN THIS ZONE WOULD ALLOW. NEXT ONE TO FURTHER ILLUSTRATE THAT. GO ONE MORE. WITHIN A THREE MILE RADIUS OF THE LOCATION OF THIS PROPERTY. IF IT WAS TRULY NEIGHBORHOOD SHOPPING CENTER, YOU CAN SEE THE THE DIFFICULTY. THE RED DASHED LINES ARE KIND OF THE BORDERS CREATED FROM THE EXISTING ROADS. BANGERTER AND SUCH AND. THERE'S ALREADY GROCERY STORES, THERE'S FUEL CENTERS, THERE'S FAST FOOD, THERE'S RESTAURANTS. THERE'S ALL OF THESE THAT ARE WITHIN A THIRD MILE TO ANYONE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD WHO WOULD BE GOING THERE. SO GIVEN UDOT'S CONCERNS, GIVEN THAT THIS IS. EXPANDING MORE ON THE PROFESSIONAL OFFICE THAT IS THERE, WE FEEL LIKE. NEIGHBORHOOD SHOPPING CENTER IS NOT QUITE APPROPRIATE. NEXT ONE. 
          ANY NEGATIVE IMPACTS OF THIS WOULD HAVE IS ONE OF THE CRITERIA WE WERE ASKED TO ADDRESS. WE HAVE HAD A WATER ANALYSIS AND SEWER ANALYSIS DONE ON THE PROPERTY. THERE IS A HIGHER DENSITY THAN WAS ORIGINALLY PLANNED FOR WATER AND EXISTING FOR SEWER. 
          EXISTING CONDITIONS ARE SUFFICIENT WITH MINIMAL IMPACT TO. BOTH OF THESE ITEMS HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED IN THE MASTER DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AND WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF NEXT ONE. SO THIS IS OUR CONCEPTUAL PLAN. YEAH. YOU CAN SEE UP THERE THE FIRE AND EMS ACCESS ONLY THROUGH THAT GATE TO ALSO HELP WITH TRAFFIC AND WORKING WITH UDOT, WE WILL BE ADDING A DECELERATION LANE COMING OFF OF BANGERTER HIGHWAY. THE PROPERTY WILL BE A RIGHT IN RIGHT OUT TRAFFIC ONLY TO AVOID ANY COLLISIONS OR DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. THERE. BASICALLY VISIONARY SQUARE. IT'S HOW WE ENVISION THIS IS TO BE AN INCUBATOR SPACE FOR STARTUP BUSINESSES. THINK OF BUSINESSES WHO GO TO A CO-WORKING SPACE WHO JUST NEED A DESK. THIS IS MORE FOR THE STARTUP BUSINESSES WHO NEED SPACE FOR STORAGE, FOR MATERIALS, FOR EQUIPMENT TO START UP THEIR BUSINESS. SO. OPEN TO ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. 
          JUST ONE THAT POPPED INTO MY HEAD. ARE YOU PLANNING ON PROVIDING? HIGHER VOLTAGE ELECTRICITY TO THESE UNITS? WE WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF WRITING OUR CSNS IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE PROFESSIONAL OFFICE ZONE. WE DON'T ANTICIPATE ANY USES IN HERE THAT WOULD USE MORE THAN A USE OF 400, USE A HIGH VOLTAGE. SO WE WOULD PROBABLY BE JUST BRINGING A STANDARD 200 TO EACH OF THE UNITS 200 AMP. WE DON'T. YEAH. ONCE THEY GET INTO THAT HIGHER VOLTAGE THAT'S MORE OF WORKING THERE. THAT'S NOT ALLOWED IN THIS ZONE. SO. I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION. AND AND THIS IS AS KAITLYN, THE RESIDENT, WHEN I LOOK AT THAT PLAN, I WONDER IF CAN WE GO BACK TO THAT. I'M WONDERING IF WE CAN MAKE IT SO THE ROAD DOESN'T ALIGN WITH THE OTHER 
          [00:40:06]
ROAD. LIKE CAN YOU SHIFT YOUR BUILDINGS? DOES NOT ALIGN. YEAH. HERE'S MY REASON I WALK THAT END OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT IS SO LOUD. IF YOU MOVED YOUR BUILDINGS IT WOULD BE A SOUND BUFFER. SO UP ON THE NORTH WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD ALONG IT, YOU SEE HOW THE ROAD COMES OFF OF 90TH? YEAH. AND THEN IT GOES STRAIGHT AND IT ALIGNS WITH THE A NEIGHBORHOOD ROAD. SO IF INSTEAD OF THEM BEING CLOSE UP TO BANGERTER, WHAT IF THEY WERE OVER AND YOU ENTERED AND YOU ANYWAY JUST JUST A NEIGHBORHOOD ASK. YEAH. WE'LL TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION. WE ARE SEEING ABOUT CHANGING THIS A LITTLE. WE UDOT WANTS US TO KEEP THE ENTRANCE ON 90 AS FAR AWAY FROM THE EXIT AS POSSIBLE, BUT AS IT GOES UP, WE WE'VE ACTUALLY BEEN TALKING THE LAST FEW WEEKS ABOUT TRYING TO GET MORE PARKING IN HERE TO NOT HAVE PARKING ISSUES, WHICH WOULD WOULD SHIFT THAT. SO WE WILL DEFINITELY LOOK AT THAT. OKAY. JUST JUST AGAIN, KAITLYN IS RESIDENT JUST LOOKING AT THIS. ALL RIGHT. WE WANT TO MAKE ALL THE NEIGHBORS HAPPY. WE'RE WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. AND I APPRECIATE THAT YOU YOU HAVE BEEN GREAT TO WORK WITH I FEEL FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN. AND MAYBE YOU CAN ANSWER THE QUESTION AND THEN WE'LL PUT MARK ON THAT. WE'LL PUT MARK ON THE HOT SEAT. IF YOU CAN'T ANSWER IT ON THE ONE SLIDE IT SAID THAT THE WATER USE OR THERE'S GREG. HE CAN HE CAN ANSWER IT EVEN BETTER. YOU SAID THE WATER USE WAS HIGHER THAN WHAT THE CITY HAD PLANNED. WHAT WHAT WHAT WAS THE WHAT'S THE IRC COUNT THAT WE WERE USING ON THIS BUT BEFORE. AND WHAT'S GOING TO BE YOUR IRC COUNT WHEN IT'S FULLY BUILT OUT? WE ARE. WATER AIR USE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE FOR THE PROJECT ARE 17, WHICH IS 37 LESS THAN THE 54 REQUIRED. NOW THE 54 TOTAL IS BASED ON 100 UNITS. WE'RE ACTUALLY PROBABLY ONLY GOING TO BE ONCE WE GET MORE PARKING IN THERE. AND, YOU KNOW, MAKE THIS A LITTLE BETTER SPACE. WE'RE GOING TO BE DOWN CLOSER TO PROBABLY 80 UNITS. OKAY. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, MR. FORSYTH. DO YOU HAVE I CAN'T SEE. THERE YOU ARE. DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD? I THOUGHT YOU WERE ASKING ME OR HIM, BUT, YES, JUST A COUPLE THINGS I WANT TO GO OVER. SO JUST REALLY QUICK WE GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. SO JUST A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY ON THIS. THIS WENT BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL ON APRIL 29TH AS A COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING SEEMED. A LOT OF THE FEEDBACK WAS FAIRLY POSITIVE. JUST WANTED TO KIND OF REFLECT THE CONCERNS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, PARTICULARLY WITH THAT STUB STREET TO THE NORTH, AND MAKING SURE THAT THAT'S CLOSED OFF AND ACTS AS A FIRE ACCESS ONLY AND IS NOT ALLOWING JUST GENERAL PEDESTRIANS OR VEHICLES COMING THROUGH THERE. SO SO WE'VE INCLUDED A PROVISION IN THE MDA THAT COVERS THAT, AND THEN IT WENT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION MORE RECENTLY ON AUGUST 5TH. 
          AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION OFFERED A UNANIMOUS POSITIVE RECOMMENDATION. THERE WAS ONE CITIZEN COMMENT, BASICALLY, AGAIN REITERATING THOSE CONCERNS WITH THE ACCESS BEING CLOSED OFF AND MAKING SURE THAT THAT PROVISION WAS INCLUDED IN THE MDA. AND IT IS SO. AND THEN THERE WAS SOME CONCERNS ABOUT WATER PRESSURE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. SO THE MDA, AS THE APPLICANT KIND OF DISCUSSED, WILL BE COMING UP WITH SOME WORKING WITH OUR PUBLIC UTILITIES DEPARTMENT TO CREATE A SOLUTION TO COME UP WITH SOLUTIONS TO MAKE UP THE DIFFERENCE IN THAT, THAT IRC COUNT, SO THAT THAT COULD INCLUDE THINGS LIKE PAYING EXTRA FEES TO FIND SOURCE WATER WITH THE JORDAN VALLEY WATER CONSERVANCY DISTRICT, AND FINDING SOLUTIONS TO THAT. SO SO TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION, IT MAY NOT NECESSARILY IMPROVE CONDITIONS, BUT IT CERTAINLY WON'T MAKE THEM WORSE. AND THEN GOING JUST TOUCHING ON SOME OF THE POINTS IN THE MDA AGAIN, THAT NORTH ENTRANCE WILL BE CLOSED OFF TO VEHICLES. SO THEY'LL NEED TO BE OFFENSE APPROVED OR EXCUSE ME, APPROVED BY OUR FIRE MARSHAL. THAT CAN ALLOW EMERGENCY VEHICLES ONLY TO GET IN AND OUT IN CASE THERE'S A FIRE OR AN EMERGENCY, AND THEN THE REST WOULD BE CLOSED OFF WITH SOME SORT OF FENCE SO THAT PEDESTRIANS AND OTHER VEHICLES CANNOT GET THROUGH THERE. THEN AGAIN, JUST KIND OF REITERATING THIS 
          [00:45:06]
PROVISION IN THERE, COVERING THE IRC DIFFERENCE. SO THAT'S COVERS WATER AND SEWER. AND AGAIN, JUST IS A REQUIREMENT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE APPLICANT WORKS WITH OUR WITH THE CITY AND COMING UP WITH A DIFFERENCE ON THAT. AND THEN FINALLY JUST THERE'S A PROVISION IN THERE. 
          JUST MAKING SURE THAT THE STORM DRAIN IMPROVEMENTS WILL BE PUT IN THE PRETTY MUCH THE EASIEST PLACE TO TIE IN WOULD PROBABLY BE ON VALLEY WEST DRIVE TO THE NORTH, SO IT'LL COME UP 3680, MAKE A RIGHT ON 8850 AND THEN COME UP 3645 TO TIE INTO THAT EXISTING LINE THAT'S UP THERE. 
          SO NOW THE MDA DOES PROVIDE A LITTLE BIT MORE OPTIONS. IF THAT OPTION DOESN'T WORK, THEY CAN WORK WITH OUR PUBLIC UTILITIES DIRECTOR. AND IN COMING UP WITH A SOLUTION THAT WILL WORK FOR THE CITY. SO AND THEN JUST THE LAST ONE, THE MDA POINT IN THERE IS CONCERNING THE DRIVEWAYS ON SITE. JUST STATING THAT THOSE WILL BE OWNED AND MAINTAINED PRIVATELY AND THOSE WON'T BE CITY MAINTAINED OR OWNED ROADS. SO NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. SO NEXT STEPS FOR THIS PROJECT. IF APPROVED TONIGHT THEY'LL NEED TO GET THEIR CONSTRUCTION PLANS READY, SUBMIT FOR THEIR PRELIMINARY SITE PLAN AND PRELIMINARY CONDOMINIUM PLAT THAT WILL GO THROUGH STAFF REVIEW AND THEN TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOR PUBLIC HEARING. 
          SO THIS WON'T ACTUALLY BE THE LAST PUBLIC HEARING. WE'LL BE LOOKING AT THIS PROJECT IN A LOT MORE DEPTH WHEN IT GOES BACK TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION. AND THEN ONCE THAT'S APPROVED, IT'LL GO TO FINAL SITE PLAN AND FINAL CONDOMINIUM PLAT, AND THAT'LL ALL BE REVIEWED AND APPROVED AT THE STAFF LEVEL. THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT. AND I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE. ANY QUESTIONS FOR MR. FORSYTH SEEING NONE I THANK YOU. AND I WILL GO AHEAD AND OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING IF YOU WISH TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM, PLEASE COME FORWARD. MR. ANDERSON. ANYONE ONLINE? THERE'S ONE INDIVIDUAL ONLINE IN THE ZOOM MEETING AND THEY HAVE NOT RAISED THEIR HAND TO SPEAK THIS EVENING. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I'LL BRING IT BACK TO THE COUNCIL FOR A POSSIBLE MOTION OR DISCUSSION. COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN JUST A JUST A COUPLE OF COMMENTS. I REMEMBER IT'S BEEN, WHAT, FOUR YEARS AGO THAT WE SAW A RESIDENTIAL PLAN FROM A LOCAL BUILDER. AND TO PUT IT BLUNTLY, IT WAS HORRIFIC PLAN. WE DIDN'T WIN THE LAND USE COMMITTEE. WE DIDN'T LIKE IT. IT WAS TERRIBLE. AND SO TO ME, THIS IS A GREAT IMPROVEMENT. 
          I KNOW THAT MR. FROST HAS CONSIDERED ALL KINDS OF. POSSIBILITIES THERE TO COME UP WITH THIS ONE, AND I THINK THIS IS GOING TO BE A A GOOD IMPROVEMENT TO THE AREA. WE'LL IT WILL MAKE SURE THAT THAT PROPERTY ENDS UP BEING UTILIZED WELL. BUT I ALSO THINK THAT HAVING THE. THE BUILDINGS THERE ALONG BANGERTER, HOPEFULLY THEY'LL ABSORB ABSORB A LOT OF SOME OF THE NOISE THAT I'M SURE THE NEIGHBORHOOD PROBABLY GETS FROM BANGERTER, AT LEAST WITH TRUCKS THAT LIKE TO GO DOWN THE ON RAMP WITH THEIR OUR OFF RAMP WITH THEIR LOUD ENGINE. OH, DID I SAY THAT OUT LOUD? THAT NEVER HAPPENS IN WEST JORDAN. I MEAN, I REMEMBER MEETING WITH THE NEIGHBORS AND WORKING THROUGH THAT AND I AND I'M GLAD THAT THEY WERE ABLE TO WORK THROUGH IT. I THINK, HONESTLY, THIS IS GOING TO BE A BETTER PLAN FOR TRAFFIC THAN TRYING TO HAVE 35, 40 HOUSES ON THE PROPERTY THAT EVERYBODY COMES AND GOES AND DRIVES THROUGH A NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          THIS WILL I'M HOPING MOST OF THE BUSINESSES OPEN AT 5 OR 8:00 IN THE MORNING, AND THEY GO HOME BY 5:00 AT NIGHT, AND BUT THERE WILL BE SOME THAT ARE OPEN, BUT THE TRAFFIC WILL BE LESS. SO I THINK THIS WILL BE A GOOD. I THINK THIS WILL BE A GOOD DEVELOPMENT FOR THE THE AREA. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON, I JUST LIKE TO CONGRATULATE MR. ROSS ON PULLING A RABBIT OUT OF THE HAT. THIS IS SUCH A DIFFICULT PIECE OF PROPERTY TO DEVELOP, AND I 
          [00:50:01]
THINK YOUR PLANS ARE FABULOUS. AND I JUST WOULD LIKE TO CONGRATULATE YOU ON BRINGING A GREAT PLAN TO THE CITY COUNCIL. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN, IF THERE'S NO ONE ELSE THAT'S GOT ANY COMMENTS, I'M GOING TO MOVE TO APPROVE. MR. ANDERSON, DO WE? WE NEED TO VOTE ON EACH ONE OF THESE SEPARATELY. SO I'M GOING TO I'M GOING TO MOVE TO APPROVE ORDINANCE NUMBER 25, DASH 40, THE MASTER DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT FOR VISIONARY SQUARE. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. SECOND, I HAVE A MOTION FROM COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN AND A SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. IS THERE DISCUSSION TO THE MOTION? I WOULD LIKE TO ALSO THANK MR. FROST HE FOR A LITTLE HISTORY ON THIS PROPERTY. IT WAS PURCHASED THINKING THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO PUT A BUSINESS ON THERE BECAUSE IT WAS ZONED FOR A BUSINESS AND THEN THEY GOT TOLD BY UDOT, OH, YOU CAN'T HAVE A DRIVEWAY. IT'S PROBABLY PRETTY HARD TO HAVE A BUSINESS WITHOUT A DRIVEWAY. SO I, I APPRECIATE HIS WILLINGNESS TO WORK WITH THE COUNCIL AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND FINDING SOMETHING THAT THAT WILL BE A GOOD MATCH, AND I THINK WE'VE FOUND THAT MATCH. SO WITH THAT, I WILL ASK FOR A ROLL CALL. VOTE MISS QUICK, COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB. YES. CHAIR. WHITELOCK.

 Ordinance No. 25-34 Amending Title 13-5B-8 External Accessory Dwelling Units]
THANK YOU. THE NEXT ITEM ON OUR AGENDA IS THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR ORDINANCE NUMBER 2534, AMENDING TITLE 13 FIVE DASH, A EXTERNAL ACCESSORY DWELLINGS, MR. ANDERSON. YES, THIS IS SOMETHING COUNCIL'S BEEN WORKING ON SINCE MARCH 11TH. SO IN MARCH 11TH, THERE WAS A REQUEST FROM SOME RESIDENTS THAT HAD A THIRD ACRE LOT BUT COULDN'T. THEY HAD THE WRONG ZONE TO BUILD AN ADU. AND SO THAT CAME BEFORE THE COUNCIL, LIKE I SAID, ON MARCH 11TH. AND THE CONSENSUS OF THE COUNCIL AT THAT MEETING WAS TO PERMIT EXTERNAL ADUS ON PROPERTY 10,000FT■!S OR GREATER. BUT ONEF THE OTHER THINGS THE COUNCIL WANTED TO LOOK AT WAS REFINING THE SETBACKS AND REQUESTED THE STAFF WORK WITH FIRE AND BUILDING CODE TO MAKE SURE THE SETBACKS WERE IN ACCORDANCE. SO THE CONSENSUS OF THAT MEETING WHEN IT CAME BACK TO THE COUNCIL WAS A SIX FOOT SETBACK FROM THE REAR PROPERTY LINE. THAT'S A CHANGE FROM 15FT, WHICH IS WHAT IT WAS PRIOR. SIX FEET SETBACK FROM THE INTERNAL SIDE. THIS KIND OF SHOWS YOU THE DEFINITIONS THERE OF WHEN I USE THE TERM INTERNAL INTERIOR SIDE. THAT USED TO BE EIGHT FEET, A MAXIMUM BUILDING HEIGHT FOR OF EACH EXTERNAL ADU OF 20FT, AND THAT ANY ADU OVER 17FT. THE SETBACK FROM THE REAR PROPERTY LINE INCREASES BY ONE FOOT FOR EACH ADDITIONAL HEIGHT. 
          THE UNCHANGED SETBACK DISTANCES REMAIN SIX FEET FROM THE PRIMARY DWELLING AND FROM THE CORNER SIDE PROPERTY LINE 20FT, MEANING THAT IT WOULD BE SIMILAR TO THE SETBACK FOR THE MAIN BUILDING. AND SO WHAT'S BEFORE YOU TONIGHT IS AND BY THE WAY, IT WENT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION LAST MONTH. THEY VOTED SIX ZERO. THERE WAS ONE INDIVIDUAL THAT WAS NOT PRESENT. THAT WAS ON JULY 15TH. AND SO WHAT'S BEFORE YOU TONIGHT IS TO MAKE THOSE CHANGES THAT YOU REQUESTED, WHICH IS ALLOWING EXTERNAL ADUS ON SINGLE FAMILY PROPERTIES, LOTS THAT ARE 10,000FT■!S AND LARGER, WHICH IS BASICALLY A QUARTER ACRE LOT. AND WITH THE CHANGES TO THE SETBACK THAT YOU REQUESTED. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. MEGAN JENSEN FROM STAFF ANY. NO. 
          [00:55:12]
SHE'S THIS ONE WRONG TO THE COUNCIL BECAUSE YOU'VE ALREADY DISCUSSED IT MULTIPLE TIMES WITH STAFF. DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD? YES OKAY. DID A GREAT JOB OKAY OKAY. WELL THEN I WILL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. IF YOU'RE HERE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM, PLEASE COME FORWARD. MR. ANDERSON. STILL ONE PERSON ON ZOOM. ONE PERSON ONLINE ON ZOOM WHO HAVE NOT RAISED THEIR HAND TO SPEAK. OKAY, I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND BRING IT BACK TO THE COUNCIL FOR A MOTION AND POSSIBLE VOTE. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON, IF THERE'S NO OTHER COMMENTS, I'D LIKE TO MAKE THE MOTION THAT'S IN ORDER. I MOVE TO APPROVE ORDINANCE NUMBER 25, DASH 34, AMENDING TITLE 13, DASH 5B-8 EXTERNAL ACCESSORY ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS. 
          COUNCIL MEMBER LAM SECOND, I HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. A SECOND BY COUNCIL MEMBER LAMM. IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION TO THE MOTION? YEAH. I HAVE A QUICK QUESTION. WILL, WILL THE CITY PUBLISH A POTENTIAL ADU QUICK GUIDE THAT WE CAN PUSH OUT TO RESIDENTS VIA SOCIAL MEDIA OR SOME EDUCATION ABOUT THESE? I THINK EDUCATION PLAN MIGHT BE BENEFICIAL TO THE CITY. NICE THOUGHT. I SEE NO OTHER, NO OTHER PEOPLE WITH THEIR LIGHTS ON. SO MISS QUICK A VOTE. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. YES. COUNCIL MEMBER. BLOOM. YES.

 Ordinance No. 25-37 Amendments to City Code on Storage of Commercial Vehicles in Residential Zones (Sections 13-2-3, 13-5B-7, 13-8-14) to Update Permitted Vehicle/Equipment Types and Add Related Definitions]
THANK YOU. THE NEXT ITEM ON OUR AGENDA IS ORDINANCE 25 DASH 37 AMENDMENTS TO CITY CODE ON STORAGE VEHICLES AND RESIDENTIAL ZONES. THIS ONE'S FOR MEGAN. THANK YOU. CHAIR. 
          FIRST, I JUST WANT TO THANK THE COUNCIL FOR THEIR TIME AND FEEDBACK THAT YOU'VE GIVEN US ON THIS TEXT AMENDMENT WE HAD. I'M SURE YOU REMEMBER, WE CAME TO COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE BACK IN MARCH, AND THEN WE HAD COMPLETED A SURVEY TO GET YOUR FEEDBACK AND THEN COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE AGAIN IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR TO GET YOUR FEEDBACK. WE ALSO TOOK THIS TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION LAST MONTH, AND THEY UNANIMOUSLY FORWARDED A POSITIVE RECOMMENDATION. THIS IS JUST AN OVERVIEW. BASICALLY, IT'S THE SAME AS WHAT YOU HAVE ALREADY SEEN, WITH A FEW MINOR AMENDMENTS AND CHANGES BASED ON YOUR FEEDBACK FROM THE LAST COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING. 
          AS YOU KNOW, WE ARE INCLUDING THIS TABLE THAT OUTLINES MORE CLEARLY IN OUR CITY CODE THE CLASS, DIFFERENT CLASSES OF VEHICLES AND TRAILERS AND CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT, AND WHERE THEY CAN BE PARKED ON EACH PROPERTY. WE HOPE THIS CLARIFIES FOR OUR CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS AND FOR THE RESIDENTS OF WEST JORDAN. AND TO MAKE IT CLEAR FOR THEM. 
          AND THEN WE ARE ALSO INCLUDING THIS TABLE WHICH OUTLINES ALL THE DIFFERENT CLASSES OF VEHICLES. AND WITH THAT, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME? I'M NOT SEEING ANY. THANK YOU. I WILL NOW OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. IF YOU ARE HERE AND WISH TO SPEAK TO THIS ITEM, PLEASE COME FORWARD. DO WE STILL HAVE ONE PERSON ONLINE, MR. ANDERSON? YES. AND THAT INDIVIDUAL HAS NOT RAISED THEIR HAND TO SPEAK. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THEN I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND BRING IT BACK TO THE COUNCIL FOR DISCUSSION OR A POSSIBLE MOTION. 
          COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN, JUST A COUPLE OF COMMENTS TO THE STAFF. THANK YOU FOR THE TIME THAT YOU PUT INTO THIS. I THINK WE STARTED HAVING THESE DISCUSSIONS ON COMMERCIAL VEHICLE PARKING. IT'S GOT TO HAVE BEEN 4 OR 5 YEARS AGO, RIGHT, LARRY? I MEAN, I SWEAR IT WAS EVEN BEFORE THAT WHEN I WAS ON PLANNING COMMISSION, WE HAD SOME DISCUSSIONS. SO IT'S TAKEN US A LONG TIME TO GET HERE. BUT I THINK THAT WHAT WE HAVE IS SOMETHING THAT'S EXTREMELY WORKABLE FOR US, FOR CODE ENFORCEMENT AND FOR THE RESIDENT TO BE ABLE TO SAY, 
          [01:00:06]
WHAT CAN I HAVE IN MY BACK YARD OR WHAT? WHAT CAN MY NEIGHBOR HAVE IN THE BACKYARD? AND WHEN THEY GET MORE THAN THAT IN THE BACKYARD, IT'S EASIER TO ENFORCE. SO I'M I'M EXTREMELY HAPPY THAT WE'VE GOT TO THIS POINT. IT'S LIKE, YOU KNOW WHAT THE NEXT ONE IS THAT WE CAN FINISH UP IN FOUR MONTHS WOULD BE THE SIGN ORDINANCE. LARRY WILL LOOK AT ME LIKE LIKE A LOOK OF HORROR. SO. BUT ANYWAY, THANK YOU. IF THERE'S NO OTHER COMMENTS, I'LL MAKE THE MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 2537, AMENDING THE CITY CODE ON THE ON THE PARKING OF VEHICLE AND RESIDENTIAL ZONES. SECOND, I HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN, A SECOND BY COUNCIL MEMBER BADOR ANY DISCUSSION TO THE MOTION. COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB. THANK YOU. I'VE KIND OF SAID MY PIECE ON THIS DURING THE MANY, MANY DISCUSSIONS THAT WE'VE HAD LEADING UP TO THIS, BUT JUST TO GO ON THE RECORD FOR THE SINCE THE MOTION IS ON THE TABLE AT THIS POINT, I'LL BE VOTING AGAINST. THERE'S JUST WAY TOO MUCH IN THIS THAT'S ARBITRARY AND LIMITING OF PEOPLE'S. PROPERTY RIGHTS. IN MY OPINION. THAT ISN'T ISN'T COMPELLING ENOUGH FOR ME TO TO VOTE TO RESTRICT RIGHTS IN THIS WAY. SO I'LL BE I'LL BE VOTING NO ON THIS ONE. BUT I APPRECIATE THE DISCUSSIONS THAT WE'VE HAD. THANKS. COUNCIL MEMBER, BLOOM. COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB TOOK THE WORDS OUT OF MY MOUTH AS THIS IS THE ONE THAT'S GIVEN ME THE MOST HEARTBURN OVER THE YEAR, AND I WILL ALSO BE A NO FOR THE EXACT SAME REASONS COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB HAS STATED. ALL RIGHT, SEEING NO OTHER LIGHTS ON. MISS QUICK, A VOTE PLEASE. CHAIR WHITELOCK. 
          YES. COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN. GREEN. YES. SORRY. IT ECHOED WEIRD. YES. COUNCIL MEMBER.

THANK YOU. THEN I WILL CALL UPON MR. HALLMARK. THANK YOU. CHAIR. THIS FEE WAIVER IS PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD. AS HAS ALREADY BEEN MENTIONED, IT IS FOR THE JORDAN SCHOOL DISTRICT FOR THEIR FALL FAMILY FAIR, WHICH IS AN EVENT THEY HAVE DONE FOR A FEW YEARS NOW. THIS EVENT IS ON THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18TH. IT WILL BE AT THE VIRIDIAN. AND THE FEE WAIVER LARGELY GOES FOR TRAFFIC. THEY'LL BE CLOSING OFF A SECTION OF THE CIRCLE RIGHT OUTSIDE THE VIRIDIAN FOR FOOD TRUCKS GAMES PROMOTING THE DISTRICT, HELPING PEOPLE GET INVOLVED IN THEIR COMMUNITY. THEY'LL HAVE SOME RESOURCES, SOME PRIZES, SNACKS AND GAMES FOR THE COMMUNITY THAT EVENING FROM 4 TO 7 P.M. AND AS JERRY WHITELOCK HAS ALREADY MENTIONED, THERE'S NO ONE HERE FROM THE DISTRICT, BUT I'M HAPPY TO HELP ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR MISTER HALLMARK? I SEE NONE.

 Receiving Public Comment on Adopting the Final Budget]
          [01:05:08]
AGENDA IS RECEIVING PUBLIC COMMENT ON ADOPTING THE FINAL BUDGET. I'M GOING TO ASK MISS STEC TO COME UP AND GIVE ANY OF HER. INFORMATION THAT SHE WOULD LIKE TO SHARE PRIOR TO THE NEXT TWO ITEMS. THANK YOU. THERE ARE A FEW ITEMS I'D LIKE TO SHARE BEFORE THE PUBLIC HEARING ON THE FINAL BUDGET, AND WE WON'T SHARE THESE AGAIN WHEN YOU GO THROUGH ADOPTING, SO THIS WILL JUST PROVIDE YOU WITH THE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. THERE WERE A FEW THINGS THAT WE NEED TO NEEDED TO ADD TO THE BUDGET. WE'D LIKE TO GO OVER WITH THE COUNCIL. SO FIRST OF ALL, THIS IS THE BUDGET TIMELINE. THE MAYOR'S BUDGET WAS GIVEN TO YOU ON MAY 6TH. YOU HAD LOTS OF COUNCIL WORK SESSIONS IN MAY, JUNE AND JULY, AND THE TENTATIVE BUDGET WAS ADOPTED ON THE 24TH OF JUNE. WE ALL KNOW THE TRUTH AND TAXATION HEARING LAST WEEK, AND HAD ONE PUBLIC COMMENT. AND TONIGHT WE'LL HAVE THE PUBLIC HEARING ON THE FINAL BUDGET. ACTUALLY, WE DON'T HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING SCHEDULED FOR THIS. WE JUST HAVE THE VOTE NO. IT IS A PUBLIC HEARING. THE RESOLUTION WHEN YOU ADOPTED THE TENTATIVE BUDGET WAS TO HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING TONIGHT, BUT NO ACTION UNTIL LATER. OKAY, I STAND CORRECTED. THANKS. AND THEN AND THEN THE REQUIREMENT IS THAT WE SET THE TAX RATE AND ADOPT THE BUDGET BY SEPTEMBER 1ST. THE TENTATIVE BUDGET FOR THE GENERAL FUND. RIGHT NOW IT STANDS WITH NO CHANGES WHATSOEVER. YOU RESERVE BALANCE IS ESTIMATED AT 2420 $1.4 MILLION IN RESERVES. THE SOURCES AND USES IN THE GENERAL FUND. WE'VE GONE OVER QUITE A BIT, ESPECIALLY DURING THE PUBLIC HEARING, DURING TRUTH AND TAXATION. SO THIS IS JUST A REPEAT SLIDE. AND THE CHANGES. SO THESE ARE THINGS THAT WE WANT TO BRING UP. SO WE RECEIVED $1 MILLION GRANT. WE'RE VERY GRATEFUL FOR FROM THE WHEELS PARK. DURING THE TIME PERIOD SINCE YOU'VE ADOPTED THE FINAL OR I'M SORRY, THE TENTATIVE BUDGET ON JUNE 24TH, IT'S A DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR MATCH. AND SO WE WOULD ARE ASKING THE COUNCIL TO RECEIVE THE MILLION DOLLAR GRANT AND THEN TO ALLOCATE ANOTHER MILLION DOLLARS OUT OF PARK IMPACT FEES TO THE PROJECT, FOR A TOTAL PROJECT FOR PHASE THREE OF THE WHEELS PARK AT $2 MILLION. WE HAVE ANOTHER GRANT THAT'S COME IN AS WELL, BUT WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THOSE ARE FINALIZED AND SIGNED BEFORE WE BRING THEM TO THE COUNCIL FOR FUNDING. THERE WAS AN ADDITIONAL GRANT FOR THE COMMUNITY ARTS CENTER FOR SOME EQUIPMENT RECEIVED 50,000. AND SO WE WANT TO BUDGET FOR THAT AS WELL. THERE WERE A COUPLE OF ADDITIONAL ASSETS. THERE'S SOME PROJECTS THAT ARE GOING ON, WHICH IS A PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE AT 70TH SOUTH AND THE PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE AT 78TH SOUTH. BOTH ARE UDOT MANAGED PROJECTS, AND THEY'VE REQUESTED FROM US ADDITIONAL FUNDING ON THOSE PROJECTS. THE $412,000 FOR THE 70TH SOUTH BRIDGE AND $400,000 ON THE 78TH SOUTH BRIDGE. AND THEN BRIAN FORGOT TO PUT IN A STUDY THAT HE NEEDS FOR 90TH SOUTH AND NEW BINGHAM HIGHWAYS DESIGN AT $100,000. SO HE'S REQUESTING THAT STUDY FROM YOU AS WELL, COUNCIL, JUST TO CONFIRM THAT PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE AND SOUTH 11TH WEST. THAT'S FOR THE RIVER, RIGHT? YES. OKAY. I'M JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE THAT'S AT BECAUSE 77TH, 11TH WEST, THERE'S NO SCHOOLS OVER THERE. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THIS OUTSIDE OF THAT. SO THIS WOULD ASK FOR A USE OF RESERVES OF 1.9 ADDITIONAL MONEY FUNDING. ALL OF THESE ARE IMPACT FEE ELIGIBLE OR GRANT RELATED FUNDS. 
          SO IT DOES NOT REQUIRE TAXPAYER FUNDING. THE CDBG FUND, WHEN WE PRESENTED THE BUDGET TO YOU AND YOU ADOPTED IT DID NOT HAVE ANY FUNDING. WE DID NOT KNOW WHAT OUR FUNDING WOULD BE, AND OUR FUNDING ENDED UP AT $885,431. THAT INCLUDES SOME PRIOR YEAR FUNDS AS WELL. AND THE COMMITTEE HAS MET AND DECIDED TO PRESENT TO YOU THE CDBG BUDGET AS AS PRESENTED HERE, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF $80,000 ASSIST IS HOUSING REPAIR AT $248,000, AND THEN SOME NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENTS IN THOSE NEIGHBORHOODS THAT QUALIFY FOR CDBG OR LOW INCOME IMPROVEMENTS, WHICH IS $244,000. SOME OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON IN THE PAST HAVE BEEN THE STORM DRAIN PROJECT AT EXECUTIVE DRIVE, AND SOME ADA AND SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENTS, AS WELL AS SOME PLAYGROUND INSTALLATIONS AT DIXIE AND DIXIE PARK. SO THOSE ARE ALL AREAS THAT WE'VE WORKED ON, AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO DEDICATE THESE FUNDS TO COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB. THANK YOU. JUST A QUESTION ON THAT. THE CDBG MONEY COMES FROM HHS, THE HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES. IT'S HUD, HOUSING AND URBAN 
          [01:10:03]
DEVELOPMENT. OKAY, RIGHT. THAT'S RIGHT. WHICH IS VERY DIFFICULT TO GET HOLD OF NOWADAYS. WELL I'LL BET. AND HOW DOES THIS SUM COMPARE TO WHAT WE USUALLY GET? IS IT WE DID SEE A REDUCTION IN OUR FUNDING. IS IT HALF. IS IT 10%, 60%. SO THIS IS ABOUT 60% OF WHAT WE USUALLY GET CORRECT. OKAY. JUST JUST SO WHEN SOMETIMES DURING CITY COUNCIL CAMPAIGNS OR DURING JUST GENERAL TALK IN THE PUBLIC ABOUT POLITICAL THINGS, BECAUSE WE'RE KIND OF POLITICALLY MINDED PEOPLE WHO TEND TO SIT UP HERE, WE OFTEN GET ASKED ABOUT HOW FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THINGS AFFECT OUR CITY. THIS IS EXHIBIT A, SO ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. SO I SAT ON THE CDBG COMMITTEE AS A NON-VOTING MEMBER. THE REASON FOR THAT IS BECAUSE I GET TO CAST A VOTE HERE. BUT IT WAS VERY INTERESTING. I GOT TO LISTEN TO EACH OF THESE APPLICANTS, EACH ONE OF THESE ON THIS LIST HERE, VERY DESERVING, I THOUGHT, AND JUST JUST VERY PLEASED WITH THE WORK THAT THEY'RE, THAT THEY ARE DOING IN OUR COMMUNITY. SO IS ASSIST INCORPORATED. IS THAT A SEPARATE ENTITY BECAUSE YOU SAID THAT WAS FOR HOUSING REHABILITATION. RIGHT. AND THEN WE HAVE HOUSING REHABILITATION. SO IT IS IT HAS DIFFERENT REQUIREMENTS FOR IT TO QUALIFY FOR THAT. HOUSING REHABILITATION IS WHEN A RESIDENT COMES TO US AND THEY QUALIFY AS LOW INCOME FOR A REPAIR ON THEIR HOME. AND WE WE QUALIFY IT UNDER A LOAN PROGRAM. 
          SO THEIR HOME IS LEANED UNTIL SUCH TIME AS IT'S SOLD. AND WE RECOVER THE FUNDS AND IT'S REINVESTED INTO THAT PROGRAM. ASSIST IS DIFFERENT IN THAT IF THERE ARE CERTAIN REQUIRED IMPROVEMENTS OR REHABILITATION TO THE HOUSE THAT WE CAN ALLOW ASSIST TO DO THOSE. AS A COMPANY, THEY'RE A CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, THEY DO THE IMPROVEMENTS AND THEN THE HOMEOWNER DOES NOT HAVE TO PAY US BACK. SO THEY'RE VERY DIFFERENT PROGRAMS BUT DIFFERENT INCOME REQUIREMENTS. WE'RE RUNNING BOTH OF THEM. WE ARE RUNNING BOTH OF THEM. 
          CORRECT. OKAY. THANK YOU FOR THAT CLARIFICATION. ANOTHER CLARIFICATION IS TRAVELERS AID. 
          I USED TO GET CONFUSED ON THIS. IT IS THE ROAD HOME. SO WHEN THE GENTLEMAN SPOKE TO US, GRATEFUL FOR THE CONTRIBUTION, THAT'S THE THE LINE ITEM THAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT OKAY. ALL RIGHT. SO THE OTHER ONE IS REQUEST FROM MR. DAVENPORT. HE JUST HAD PROJECTS HE HAS ASKING FOR NO ADDITIONAL FUNDING, BUT JUST CHANGING THE PROJECT DESCRIPTIONS AND WHAT WILL BE DONE WITH THAT FUND. SO THIS IS IN THE STORMWATER FUND AGAIN, IT DOESN'T REQUIRE ANY CHANGE IN MONEY, ONLY IN THE KIND OF PROJECT THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WITHOUT FUNDING. THOSE ARE THE ONLY CHANGES THAT WE'RE REQUESTING IN THE BUDGET OF YOU COUNCIL, AND THEY WILL BE INCLUDED IN YOUR ANNUAL BUDGET, OUR FINAL ANNUAL BUDGET, UNLESS YOU CHOOSE TO CHANGE IT. SO THEY WILL BE YOUR BUDGET WILL BE ADOPTED WITH THESE CHANGES. ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN. YOU SEND OUT THE SALES TAX REPORT THE LAST FEW DAYS I DID AND THE SALES TAX REVENUE ACTUALLY CAME IN A LOT HIGHER. I THINK WE ANTICIPATED HOW DOES THE SALES TAX REVENUE AFFECT THIS AT THIS POINT? IT DOES NOT, BECAUSE THAT WAS THE FINAL MONTH FOR LAST FISCAL YEAR, WHICH ALLOWED US TO COME IN AT ABOUT 2.5% ABOVE WHAT WE ANTICIPATED, OR GROWTH, WHICH IS BETTER THAN IT'S BEEN FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS. SO WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THAT. IT'LL BE AN INTERESTING TREND TO WATCH AS WE SEE JULY AND AUGUST COME IN TO SEE IF THERE'S SOMETHING SIMILAR. I'VE ALSO, I THINK I REFERENCED IN THE EMAIL THAT I'M ASKING OUR TREASURER, WHO MANIPULATES THAT DATA FOR ME, TO GIVE US A REPORT AND TO PROVIDE FOR YOUR REPORT OF WHERE THE CHANGES WERE OVER THE LAST YEAR, BECAUSE IT REALLY IS HELPFUL FOR YOU AS A COUNCIL AND AS OUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR CONTINUES TO WORK WITH BUSINESSES TO KNOW WHAT KIND OF INDUSTRIES HAVE REALLY HELPED BOOST OUR SALES TAX SO THAT WE CONTINUE TO ATTRACT THOSE KINDS OF INDUSTRIES AND WHICH HAVE RECOVERED AND NOT RECOVERED, YOU KNOW, FROM THE CHANGES IN THE ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT, HAVE OUR ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRIES, YOU KNOW, RISEN BACK UP AGAIN. 
          ARE THEY BACK AT LEVELS THAT THEY WERE PREVIOUSLY OR THE RETAIL OR BIG BOXES COMPARED TO RESTAURANTS AND FAST FOODS? SO I ANTICIPATE THAT REPORT TO YOU BY THE END OF NEXT MONTH. BUT THANK YOU FOR ASKING. I WOULD NOT SUGGEST US AMENDING ANY KIND OF REVENUE AT THIS POINT IN TIME YET, BUT WE WILL WATCH IT CLOSELY AND BRING AN AMENDMENT TO YOU SHOULD WE SEE 
          [01:15:03]
THAT CONTINUE? I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT REMOVE THE REPAIRS AND EXPANSION, WHICH IS ROAD WORK. I'M THINKING TO PUT UP A FENCE ON A POND, BUT IF I'M THINKING OF THE RIGHT PLACE, TO ME, A POND USUALLY HAS WATER IN IT. I'VE NEVER SEEN WATER IN THIS BASIN. SO WHAT'S THE JUSTIFICATION FOR NOT REPAIRING THE ROAD BUT DOING THE FENCE? GOOD. YEAH. READY? SO THE THIS IS FROM AN OLDER PLAN FROM A FEW YEARS AGO, AND I'M NOT SURE WHY THE TEXT DIDN'T GET UPDATED, BUT THE ORIGINAL ONE WAS TO THERE'S A SIPHON THAT GOES ALONG 90TH SOUTH THAT LEAKS SOMETIMES, BUT IT'S NOT AN EMERGENCY THAT WE NEED TO REPAIR IT THIS YEAR. THE FENCE IS TO RIGHT NOW THERE IS A DETENTION POND FOR 90TH SOUTH THAT IS JUST WEST OF SMITH'S, AND IT'S EVERY CAR GOES BY IT. THAT'S WHAT THEY SEE IS THAT DETENTION POND. WE'RE TRYING TO MATCH THE FENCE AND EXTEND IT ALONG THAT PROPERTY THAT WE OWN, SO THAT WE MATCH EVERYBODY ELSE, AND WE'RE NOT AN EYESORE. SO. SO I WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE HOW TALL YOUR WEEDS ARE AND CALL YOU IN FOR CODE ENFORCEMENT. CORRECT. THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE DOING. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE DOING WITH THAT PROJECT. IT'S PART OF COUNCIL. YOU'VE MADE A PUSH CONSISTENTLY OVER THE YEARS TO IMPROVE THE ESTHETICS, ESPECIALLY ALONG OUR ARTERIALS. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE PROJECTS, THOSE PROJECTS. THANK YOU. I THINK THAT'S A GOOD IDEA. COUNCIL MEMBER I'M GOING COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN WELL I APPRECIATE PUTTING A FENCE THERE. WHAT I WOULD RATHER SEE INSTEAD OF FENCE. PURPOSE WITH THE WITH A PURPOSE. I MEAN WE WE HAVE TALKED IN THE PAST OF POTENTIALLY MAKING THAT A COMMUNITY GARDEN OR SOMETHING ELSE, FENCING IT OFF SO SOMEBODY IT DOESN'T. WE HAVE THE LAND THERE AND WE OUGHT TO USE IT MORE FOR THE BENEFIT OF OUR RESIDENTS THAN JUST HAVE A FENCE UP. AND IT'S A ONCE IN A IN THEORY, IN THEORY, ONCE IN 100 YEAR STORM DETENTION POND. IT'D BE NICE IF WE COULD USE IT FOR SOMETHING ELSE BESIDES JUST FENCE IT OFF. YES. COUNCIL MEMBER LAMB. I THINK GREG WAS GOING TO RESPOND TO THE. JUST SO WE'RE CLEAR, WE ARE NOT FENCING THE WHOLE PROPERTY OFF SO YOU CAN'T GET INTO THE PROPERTY. WE'LL STILL HAVE ACCESS TO THE PROPERTY. THAT'S A VERY GOOD IDEA, KELVIN, FOR US TO USE IT FOR SOMETHING ELSE THAT'S GOING TO BRING UP THE SAME THING. YOU KNOW, DIXIE VALLEY, THEIR RETENTION BASIN IS A PARK AND SO IS A CONSTITUTION PARK. SO IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE COULD DO. BUT IF WE DO PUT UP A FENCE, PLEASE. NO HOT PINK. COMING BACK. NO. 
          IF THERE'S NO OTHER QUESTIONS, YOU CAN OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING AND RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT. AND THEN WHEN WE COME TO THE ITEM UNDER YOUR BUSINESS ITEMS, IT SHOULD GO PRETTY QUICK BECAUSE WE'VE ALREADY REVIEWED THESE. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. I WILL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. 
          IF YOU'RE HERE TO SPEAK TO US ABOUT OUR FINAL BUDGET, PLEASE COME FORWARD. MR. ALLEN. STILL ONE PERSON ONLINE, ONE PERSON ONLINE, AND THEY HAVE RAISED THEIR HAND TO SPEAK. HEY, THEN I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. NO, THEY HAVE RAISED. OH, THEY HAVE RAISED THEIR HAND. OH. 
          THEN GO AHEAD AND PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND CITY OF RESIDENCE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. GOOD EVENING, HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS. MY NAME IS MELANIE FOR I'M BASED IN BOULDER CREEK, CALIFORNIA. BUT HERE ON BEHALF OF UPWARDS BOOST TEAM, WHO HAS BEEN WORKING FOR THE PAST YEAR WITH MICROENTERPRISE CHILDCARE PROVIDERS IN THE CITY OF WEST JORDAN, AS WELL AS MANY FAMILIES IN WEST JORDAN. SO THE BOOST PROGRAM IS POSSIBLE THANKS TO THE SUPPORT OF CDBG FUNDING. SO HOPEFULLY I WAITED FOR A CORRECT AGENDA ITEM, AND I JUST WANTED TO QUICKLY RECAP ALL THE SUCCESS OF THE INAUGURAL YEAR. THE BOOST TEAM PARTNERED WITH SEVEN LOW TO MODERATE INCOME FAMILY CHILDCARE PROVIDERS IN WEST JORDAN. WE WERE PERSONALIZED COACHING AND DIGITAL TOOLS. WE HELPED THEM MANAGE AND GROW THEIR SMALL BUSINESSES, CREATE THREE NEW TEACHING ASSISTANT JOBS, AND EXPAND ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE, QUALITY CARE FOR OVER 100 FAMILIES. THE BOOST TEAM HELPED PROVIDERS REACH THEIR BOTH THEIR PERSONAL BUSINESS GOALS AND EXCEEDED ALL PROJECTED OUTCOMES. I EMAILED A NUMBER OF TESTIMONIALS FROM PARTICIPATING PROVIDERS TO COUNCIL, BUT JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT A FEW FOR THE REST OF THE FOLKS IN THE CHAMBERS. SANDRINE INGABIRE FROM CHILDCARE WROTE, UPWARDS HAS 
          [01:20:03]
BEEN AN INCREDIBLE SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR ME AS A DAYCARE PROVIDER. THEIR ASSISTANCE HAS MADE MY JOB SO MUCH EASIER. FROM ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT TO VALUABLE RESOURCES. KNOWING WE HAVE SUCH A GREAT PROGRAM BEHIND US TO GUIDE AND UPLIFT US IS TRULY AMAZING. AND THIS ONE HITS CLOSE TO HOME. SO HOPEFULLY YOU CAN HEAR MY KIDS IN THE BACKGROUND. JESSICA SHEFFIELD OF BRIGHT START PRESCHOOL SAYS AS A BUSY MOM AND CHILDCARE BUSINESS OWNER, HAVING UPWARDS HAS MADE A HUGE IMPACT ON MY LIFE. UPWARDS HAS HELPED ME KEEP TRACK OF A LOT OF BUSINESS ASPECTS THAT FRANKLY, I DIDN'T GO INTO BUSINESS FOR UPWARDS OF SAVE YOU TIME SO I CAN FOCUS MORE ON WHAT I LOVE, BUT STILL MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE TO FAMILIES. I APPRECIATE THIS PROGRAM A LOT AND TAKING STRESS OFF MY PLATE AS A MOM AND CHILDCARE OWNER. SO WE'RE SO IMPRESSED BY THIS FIRST YEAR COHORT OF PROVIDERS. 
          BUT THERE IS STILL MORE WORK TO DO, AND DOZEN MORE PROVIDERS IN THE CITY ARE STILL STRUGGLING. 
          MEANWHILE, NEARLY HALF OF THE CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF SIX LACK ACCESS TO LICENSED QUALITY CARE, SO THAT AFFECTS ALL FAMILIES ARE SPECIALIZED HELP ANY FAMILY FINDING CARE, INCLUDING EMERGENCY CARE, WITHIN 24 HOURS. AS A WORKING MOM AND FROM A CLIENT OF UPWARDS, I KNOW FIRSTHAND THE PEACE OF MIND THAT THIS PROVIDES AND THE DIFFERENCE IN THE QUALITY OF CARE THAT THE DIFFERENT QUALITY CARE MAKES FOR KIDS. SO THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR CONTINUED PARTNERSHIP AND SUPPORTING WEST JORDAN'S CHILDCARE PROVIDERS AND WORKING FAMILIES. AND IF IT WASN'T CLEAR, BOOST IS THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM MENTIONED IN THE BUDGET, WHICH CLEARLY THIS IS SUPPORTING LOW AND MIDDLE INCOME CHILDCARE PROVIDERS, BUT ALSO HELPING FAMILIES BE MORE FULLY ENGAGED IN THE WORKFORCE. THANK YOU AGAIN. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE THAT WISHES TO ADDRESS THIS TOPIC? NO ONE ELSE ONLINE, ALAN. NO. OKAY. I WILL BRING IT BACK TO THE COUNCIL. AND NO. NOPE. I WILL

 Ordinance No. 25-35 Setting the 2025 Property Tax Rate]
JUST CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND WE WILL MOVE ON TO OUR BUSINESS ITEM ORDINANCE NUMBER 25, DASH 35, SETTING THE PROPERTY TAX RATE FOR 2025. MYSTIC. WE HELD A TRUTH AND TAXATION HEARING, AS YOU KNOW LAST WEEK. AND WE ARE IT IS REQUIRED OF YOU TO ADOPT A PROPERTY TAX RATE AND FINAL BUDGET BEFORE SEPTEMBER 1ST. SO OUR CITY'S ANNUAL BUDGET IS BASED ON OUR RATE OF 0.001328. ANY REDUCTION OF THIS TAX RATE WILL REQUIRE MODIFYING THE BUDGET ACCORDINGLY. AND WE'RE PRESENTING TO YOU THE RESOLUTION TO ADOPT 0.001328 AS THE TAX RATE. ANY QUESTIONS? THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB I'LL MOVE TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 2535, SETTING THE 2025 PROPERTY TAX RATE AT THE 001328 RATE. AS MENTIONED, COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON, I WILL SECOND THAT MOTION. COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN I'LL JUST WAIT FOR THE DISCUSSION. I HAVE. I HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB, A SECOND BY COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. DISCUSSION TO THE MOTION. COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN I'M GOING TO BE VOTING NO AGAINST THIS. WELL, I THINK IT'S A MINIMAL TAX INCREASE. JUST A COUPLE OF DOLLARS A YEAR. 
          HONESTLY, I DON'T THINK WE WERE CREATIVE ENOUGH WITH THE BUDGET. I THINK THAT WE COULD HAVE. 
          USED ONE TIME FUNDS FOR THE EXTRA CHRISTMAS LIGHTS. WE COULD HAVE USED ONE TIME FUNDS FOR THE EVENT THAT THE EXTRA EVENT MONEY, BECAUSE THEN IT DOESN'T GET INTO THE ONGOING BUDGETING STREAM. AND WE'RE ACTUALLY GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY SOME OF THEIR MONEY. 
          I ALSO THINK WE WHAT WE SHOULD BE DOING IS WE SHOULD BE PAYING FOR THE WATER CONSERVATION OFFICER THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE HIRING OUT OF ONE TIME MONEY AND, AND, AND THEN WE CAN SEE WHAT JORDAN VALLEY WATER CONSERVANCY DISTRICT IS GOING TO GIVE US THE GRANT. AND THEN WE ESTABLISH THE ONGOING REVENUE FOR THE THE ONGOING EXPENDITURE FOR THAT NEXT YEAR. 
          AND I THINK WITH WITH THE COUPLE OF THOSE THINGS, AND AS WE HAD TALKED ABOUT PREVIOUSLY, MAYBE EVEN USING SOME ONE TIME MONEY TO TO FLOAT FOR WHAT THE OCHER HIGHLANDS IS GOING TO BRING IN, UNTIL THAT GETS CAUGHT UP INTO OUR PROPERTY TAX TAX STREAM, I THINK WE COULD DO I THINK ACTUALLY WE COULD DO THIS THIS YEAR WITHOUT A PROPERTY TAX INCREASE AND STILL 
          [01:25:01]
GET EVERYTHING DONE. SO BECAUSE OF THAT, I'M GOING TO BE VOTING NO ON THIS PARTICULAR ORDINANCE. 
          THANK YOU. MOSTLY I'LL SAY I CONCUR WITH COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN. I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE THAT WORKED ON THE BUDGET. WE DID HAVE DIALOG. AND I DO BELIEVE THAT THAT PART OF IT IS COMPROMISE. BUT THERE COMES A POINT WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE YOU CAN'T COMPROMISE ON SOME THINGS, AND THERE ARE THINGS INCLUDED IN THE BUDGET THAT I CAN'T COMPROMISE ON. AS COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN SUGGESTED, WE COULD STILL FUND THE POLICE, THE FIRE. COLAS, AND BY USING ONE TIME MONEY, WE COULD FUND THE CONCRETE CREW. ALL OF ALL OF THOSE THINGS THAT THAT I FEEL ARE NEEDS COULD HAVE BEEN FUNDED WITHOUT A PROPERTY TAX INCREASE. AND SOME OF THE WANTS I JUST AM NOT IN SUPPORT OF. SO MY VOTE WILL BE NO AS WELL. IS THERE ANY OTHER DISCUSSION TO THIS MOTION FOR THE PROPERTY TAX INCREASE? SEEING NONE. MISS QUICK, I WOULD CALL FOR A VOTE.

 Ordinance No. 25-36 Adopting the Final Budget for the City of West Jordan Fiscal Year 2026]
NUMBER 25. DASH 36. ADOPTING THE FINAL BUDGET FOR THE CITY OF WEST JORDAN FOR 2026. AGAIN, THIS IS THE TIMELINE THAT YOU'VE GONE THROUGH THE PROCESS FOR BRINGING A FINAL BUDGET TO FRUITION. THE BUDGET TOTALS ARE. THIS IS A REPRODUCTION OF THE NUMBERS THAT WILL BE IN THE ORDINANCE. YOUR TOTAL BUDGET IS $247 MILLION. AFTER THE CHANGES HAVE BEEN REQUESTED THIS EVENING. IN IN OVERALL. NOW THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT'S ALL EXPENDITURES OR ALL REVENUES. 
          THIS NUMBER COMES FROM THE HIGHER OF REVENUE OR EXPENSE. SO IT REALLY JUST DEPENDS ON THAT. SO YOU SEE THERE, THE CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND INCREASED $2.9 MILLION, BUT YOUR REVENUE WAS ONLY $1,050,000. THIS IS BASED ON THAT. THE EXPENSE WAS HIGHER THAN THE REVENUE. SO $247 MILLION. WHEN YOU GO TO THE LEGISLATURE AND PEOPLE ASK YOU WHAT YOUR ANNUAL BUDGET, THAT'S YOUR ANSWER. SO WE'LL BRING TO YOU THE THE ORDINANCE TO ADOPT THE FINAL FISCAL YEAR 2026 BUDGET. THANK YOU. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS? IF NOT, I'D LOOK FOR A MOTION. COUNCIL MEMBER LAMB I MOVE TO APPROVE ORDINANCE NUMBER 25, DASH 36, ADOPTING THE FINAL BUDGET FOR THE CITY OF WEST JORDAN FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. SECOND, I HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCIL MEMBER LAMB, A SECOND BY COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION TO THIS MOTION? COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB THANK YOU. I'LL SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THE MOTION. I JUST WANT TO SAY I APPRECIATE THE THE EFFORT THAT'S GONE INTO IT FROM THE COUNCIL THIS YEAR. IT'S IT'S A FASCINATING PROCESS THAT STARTS IN JANUARY WITH AT OUR ANNUAL RETREAT AND CONTINUES INTO MARCH AND APRIL AND MAY AND JUNE WITH WORK SESSIONS AND THEN INTO JULY WITH PUBLIC HEARINGS, AND THEN INTO AUGUST WITH MORE PUBLIC HEARINGS. AND THEN FINALLY, YOU KNOW, CULMINATE WITH A WITH A BUDGET AT THIS POINT. AND, YOU KNOW, WE CAN TAKE THREE MONTHS OFF AND START AGAIN. SO IT'LL BE I JUST APPRECIATE FOUR MONTHS. 
          WHATEVER. I CAN'T COUNT IN MONTHS ANYMORE. COUNCIL MEMBER. OH, I KNOW, I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT THAT I APPRECIATE THE EFFORT AND THE AND THE THOUGHT AND DISCUSSIONS THAT HAVE GONE INTO THIS. I THINK WE LANDED IN A GOOD SPOT. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER LAMB. THANK YOU. THIS IS MY SIXTH BUDGET I VOTED ON, AND I DON'T THINK I'VE SAID NO TO ANY OF THE BUDGETS AT ANY OF THE YEARS. AND THE REASON BEING IS BECAUSE EVERY YEAR THERE'S GOING TO BE SOMETHING I DON'T LIKE. I HONESTLY, I DON'T LIKE THE WATER TRANSFER. I HATE IT EVERY YEAR. BUT I KNOW THE SIX OF YOU LIKE IT, SO THAT'S GREAT. BUT IT'S A BUDGET THAT WE NEED TO PASS. BUT I THINK IF WE ALL VOTED NO EVERY YEAR BECAUSE OF ONE THING, WE'D NEVER GET A BUDGET PASSED. SO I'M GRATEFUL FOR THE 99% OF THE BUDGET THAT I LIKE. AND THAT'S WHY I'LL BE VOTING YES TONIGHT. ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? I WILL SAY IT'S NOT JUST ONE THING IN THIS BUDGET THAT I DON'T LIKE. SEEING NO

 City Council Reports]
MOTION PASSES 6 TO 1. THANK YOU. NEXT ON OUR AGENDA ARE REPORTS TO THE COUNCIL. CITY COUNCIL IS FIRST. DOES ANYONE HAVE SOMETHING THEY WANT TO SHARE? COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN A COUPLE OF THINGS. OVER THE LAST WEEK OR TWO. WE HAD THE ASSOCIATION OF MUNICIPAL COUNCILS MEETING AND THIS MONTH'S PRESENTATION WAS PRESENTED BY THE SALT LAKE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT, LOCATED IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE FIRE STATION ON THIS COMPLEX. IF ANYBODY DOESN'T KNOW THAT, WHAT THAT BUILDING IS FOR, THE WHAT THEY THEY DID DO A PRESENTATION ON SOME OF THEIR FUNCTIONS AND THEIR USES. THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE AS SOON AS I GET THEM, THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE MAILING OUT SOME GRAPHICS THAT WE CAN USE IN I HAVE THE CARD, BUT I DON'T THINK IT'D BE WORTH SCANNING. THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE SENDING US SOME GRAPHICS THAT WE CAN USE TO. 
          HELP NOTIFY OUR RESIDENTS, AND LET THE RESIDENTS KNOW WHAT THE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT DOES. 
          THE INTERESTING THING THAT GOT BROUGHT UP IN THE MEETING WAS ABOUT RADON GAS. IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW, RADON GAS IS THE SECOND LEADING CAUSE OF LUNG CANCER IN AMERICA, AND RADON GAS IS CAUSED BY. I DID NOT KNOW THIS UNTIL LAST WEEK. RADON GAS IS CAUSED BY DECOMPOSING ROCKS UNDERNEATH YOUR YOUR BASEMENT. AND SO THE THE THE THE TESTS ARE READILY AVAILABLE. YOU DON'T HAVE TO SEND THEM IN NOW AND SOME OTHER THINGS. AND APPARENTLY THEY HAVE RADON GAS THINGS THAT ARE LIKE YOUR SMOKE DETECTORS AND THOSE KIND OF THINGS. AND THE THE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDS THAT YOU GO GET SOME AND PAY ATTENTION TO THE RADON GAS. AND IF THERE IS RADON GAS, MITIGATE THAT TO HELP PROTECT EVERYBODY'S FAMILIES FROM THE RADON GAS THAT THAT NATURALLY OCCURS. IT'S ACTUALLY NATURALLY OCCURRING THAT THERE'S ROCKS AND EVERYTHING THAT JUST DECOMPOSE AND CAUSE THE RADON GAS. ALSO HAD THE MOSQUITO ABATEMENT. MEETING. THAT'S SUPER INTERESTING. BUT IF YOU HAVEN'T PAID ATTENTION, I'VE TRIED TO TO KEEP EVERYBODY INFORMED ON THE THE EMAILS THAT WE GET FROM THE ABATEMENT DISTRICT. BUT THERE HAVE BEEN CASES OF THE WEST NILE VIRUS, THE WEST NILE VIRUS, AND THIS END OF THE VALLEY. AND SO THE MOSQUITO ABATEMENT DISTRICT AND THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT ARE RECOMMENDING TO TRY TO GET RID OF ANY STANDING WATER THAT YOU HAVE IN YOUR YARD, AND THAT IF YOU'RE OUT IN THE YARD, WEAR LONG SLEEVES, LONG PANTS. THE THING THAT I IT'S TERRIBLE WHEN YOU LEARN WHAT YOU LEARN ABOUT MOSQUITOES WHEN YOU'RE ON THE MOSQUITO ABATEMENT DISTRICT BOARD, PROBABLY LIKE COUNCIL MEMBER JACOBSON PROBABLY LEARNED MORE ABOUT WATER THAN HE EVER WANTED TO KNOW. BUT THERE ARE THERE ARE SPRAYS THAT YOU CAN USE THAT KEEP THE MOSQUITOES AWAY, THAT ARE THE CHEMICALS LIKE DEET. BUT APPARENTLY THERE ARE SOME LEMON OIL BASED MOSQUITO REPELLENTS THAT ARE ALL NATURAL, THAT KEEP THE MOSQUITOES AWAY, TOO. SO ANYWAY, JUST JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS FROM THEM. AND THEN TWO LAST THINGS ONCE. THANKS. THANK YOU. THERE THEY LEFT. BUT THE IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW THE DISABLED AMERICAN VETERANS HELD A VETERAN A VETERAN APPRECIATION LUNCH IN THE CITY PARK THIS LAST WEEKEND. I GOT THERE NEAR THE END, MISSED THE MAYOR, BUT GOT THERE AND WE'RE GLAD THAT THEY HAVE CHOSEN TO USE THE VETERANS PARK TO HELP CELEBRATE VETERANS IN IN THE CITY. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE A BIG THANK YOU TO THE WEST JORDAN FIRE DEPARTMENT. THEY'VE THEY'VE HAD A BUSY 
          [01:35:01]
COUPLE OF WEEKS AND THAT THAT THAT TWO HOUSE, TWO THREE HOUSE NEIGHBORHOOD FIRE WAS COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE IF IT WASN'T FOR THEM. AND SOME OF THE OTHER PEOPLE THAT RESPONDED LIKE WEST VALLEY AND SOUTH JORDAN. SO WE APPRECIATE THEM. I APPRECIATE THEM AND THEIR ALL OF THEIR EFFORTS. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB, THANKS. I JUST WANTED TO MENTION THAT SIMILAR TO COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN, THE JORDAN VALLEY WATER DISTRICT DID ADOPT A BUDGET, A FINAL BUDGET FOR THE FISCAL YEAR, AND DID APPROVE THE THE PROPERTY TAX RATE THAT WE HAD PREVIOUSLY DISCUSSED. THAT WAS AN INCREASE. THEY DID NOT DO AN INCREASE LAST YEAR. THEY TEND TO DO IN ABOUT EVERY TWO YEARS INSTEAD OF DOING IT. SMALL INCREASES EVERY YEAR LIKE WE DO. THEY DO A LITTLE BIT BIGGER EVERY OTHER YEAR. JUST ANOTHER WAY OF DOING IT. BUT THAT DID PASS. THAT WAS APPROVED. SO THAT HAS THAT'S BEEN DONE AND I AGREE. I LIKE LEMON BASED MOSQUITO REPELLENT STUFF. I USE CITRONELLA CANDLES WHEN I GO UP IN THE MOUNTAINS AND THEY WORK GREAT. ARE THERE ANY OTHERS? COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SPEAK ABOUT THE LAST FEW WEEKS I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH RESIDENT COMPLAINTS REGARDING FOOTBALL PRACTICES IN OUR OUR CITY PARKS, AND IT'S BEEN A FRUSTRATING AND DIFFICULT THING TO DEAL WITH. I KNOW CITY STAFF IS WORKING TO MITIGATE RESIDENT CONCERNS, BUT THESE RESIDENTS WHO LIVE REALLY CLOSE TO THESE PARKS FEEL OVERRUN. OVERRUN, AND I FEEL FOR THEM. I THERE'S A PARK IN MY OWN NEIGHBORHOOD THAT HAS HAD SOME FOOTBALL PRACTICES GOING THERE AND, AND RESIDENTS ARE HAVING A. DIFFICULT TIME AT THE REAL PINCH POINTS. YOU KNOW, RIGHT AT THE BEGINNING OF PRACTICE, RESIDENTS ARE HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME JUST ACCESSING THEIR OWN PROPERTY. AT THE SAME TIME, I'M VERY HAPPY TO SEE OUR PARKS BEING USED. FOOTBALL PLAYERS NEED SOMEWHERE TO GO. BUT IT'S FRUSTRATING THAT THE FIELDS THAT HAVE BEEN BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS TYPE OF ACTIVITY BY THE SCHOOL DISTRICT IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE TO THE FOOTBALL TEAMS, AND I DON'T KNOW ALL THE REASONS BEHIND THAT. BUT IT'S IT'S OCCUPIED A LOT OF MY THOUGHTS AND MY CONCERNS AND MY TIME OVER THE LAST FEW WEEKS. I'D LIKE TO SEE SOME REAL SOLUTIONS, AND I GET DIFFERENT STORIES FROM DIFFERENT PEOPLE. WHEN I ASK THE SAME QUESTION. AND. WHY. IT'S TOUGH WHEN YOU WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GET THE ANSWERS. AND I'M ON THE CITY COUNCIL AND I FEEL LIKE THE ANSWERS ARE ELUDING ME. THEY'VE GOT TO EXIST SOMEWHERE. SO ANYWAY, SOME FRUSTRATIONS, BUT I FEEL FOR THOSE RESIDENTS AND I ALSO, AGAIN, I LOVE FOOTBALL. I A LOT OF WHO I AM TODAY COMES BECAUSE I PLAYED FOOTBALL AND LEARNED A LOT OF LESSONS ABOUT SELF-DISCIPLINE AND HARD WORK ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD. SO I LOVE FOOTBALL AND I LOVE THAT THOSE BOYS ARE OUT THERE PRACTICING. WE'VE GOT TO MITIGATE SOME OF THE IMPACTS ON OUR RESIDENTS WHO LIVE ADJACENT TO THESE PARKS, AND I JUST DON'T FEEL LIKE IT'S HAPPENING TO THE LEVEL I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT DONE. COUNCIL MEMBER BLOOM SPEAKING OF OF CHALLENGES, WHICH I FEEL THERE'S A SOLUTION THERE. COUNCILMEMBER SCHULTZ, I GOT A CALL FROM ONE OF THE MASSAGE THERAPISTS WHO ATTENDED OUR WORK SESSION LAST WEEK. AND THANK YOU ME ONE FOR FOR LETTING THEM KNOW THAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT IT. BUT TO SHE SAID SHE GOT IN HER CAR AFTERWARDS AND SHE FELT SO PATRIOTIC. SHE FELT SO MUCH THAT SHE WAS PART OF THE CONVERSATION AND THE SOLUTION. 
          AND SHE REALIZED, I MEAN, SHE KNEW. BUT TO SEE AND FEEL FIRSTHAND HOW IMPORTANT IT IS 
          [01:40:04]
THAT LOCAL POLITICS MAKES SUCH AN IMPACT IN YOUR DAILY LIFE, WHETHER IT'S IT'S IT'S HAVING THE KIDS PLAY FOOTBALL AND THE RESIDENTS AND FINDING SOME SORT OF COMPROMISE TO TO WRITING AND CODE AND ZONING THAT AFFECTS LOCAL BUSINESSES. SEEING THE PEOPLE WHO COME TO US WITH AN ISSUE AND A CHALLENGE AND FINDING AND TALKING OUT THAT SOLUTION IS WHAT LOCAL POLITICS IS ABOUT. AND TO HEAR FROM THE BUSINESS OWNERS WHO WERE SO GRATEFUL TO BE A PART OF THE CONVERSATION AND TO CONTINUE THAT CONVERSATION SAYS A LOT ABOUT OUR CITY. AND AND THERE'S SOLUTIONS THERE. AND, AND IT'S GOING TO COME TOGETHER AS A COMMUNITY AND A CITY TO DO THAT. 
          AND, AND I ENCOURAGE AND I WISH MORE PEOPLE CAME TO US BECAUSE IT WOULD MAKE OUR CITY SO MUCH STRONGER. AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO DO WHAT WE CAN. BUT THAT'S THAT'S MY THAT'S MY REPORT FOR THIS WEEK. IS, IS EVERYONE OUT THERE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE? THANK YOU. I WOULD LIKE TO ADD THAT I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO THIS WASTE TRANSFER STATION. OUR OUR DUMP, WHICH IS LOCATED IN SOUTH JORDAN. IT IS GETTING FULL AND IT HAS ABOUT ANOTHER 3 TO 5 YEARS OF ITS LIFESPAN, BUT PROPERTY HAS BEEN PURCHASED SOUTH OF OF UTAH LAKE, WHICH MEANS WE'LL NEED A TRANSFER STATION. SO WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO AND TO SEE THIS HUGE CONCRETE BUILDING WHERE AS OF OCTOBER 1ST, OUR RESIDENTS CAN GO THERE IF THEY WANT TO. INSTEAD OF DRIVING OUT TO THE DUMP ON BACCHUS. SO IT'S AN OPTION AS OF OCTOBER 1ST, AND IT LOOKS LIKE A REALLY COOL OPERATION. THEY HAVE THESE. THEY HAVE PLACES FOR THE RESIDENTS TO PULL IN AND PLACES FOR THE COMMERCIAL, AND THEY'LL BE SEPARATED. AND THEN ONCE THE GARBAGE IS DUMPED OUT OF THE TRUCK, THEY HAVE A SCRAPER TO PUSH IT OVER, AND THEN IT GOES INTO A, A PIT, AND THEY HAVE A MACHINE THAT WILL COMPACT IT, AND THEN IT'LL PUSH IT OUT INTO THE TRUCK. THAT WILL THEN GET ONTO THE FREEWAY AND TAKE IT ON DOWN TO THE NEW DUMP. WHEN THE NEW DUMP IS OPEN. AND ONCE OUR EXISTING DUMP, ONCE IT GETS EVEN CLOSER TO ITS END OF LIFE, THEN ANOTHER ANOTHER TRANSFER STATION WILL BE BUILT THERE. SO THAT IS COMING. IT WAS GREAT TO SEE THE OPERATION. COUNCIL MEMBER AND COUNCIL MEMBER GREEN ALSO HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE THERE. I THINK OTHERS WILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY LATER THIS WEEK TO GO AND SEE IT. IT'S IT'S PRETTY AMAZING TO SEE WHAT THEY'VE BUILT. SO ARE THERE ANY OTHERS THAT WISH TO REPORT? IF NOT, WE WILL GO TO MR. ANDERSON.

 Council Office Report]
THANK YOU COUNCIL I JUST HAD A COUPLE THINGS. NUMBER ONE IS I'VE REGISTERED SEVERAL OF YOU, SEVERAL OF YOU FOR THE UTAH LEAGUE OF CITIES AND TOWNS ANNUAL CONVENTION, WHICH IS IN OCTOBER. ALSO, THE NATIONAL LEAGUE OF CITIES IS COMING TO SALT LAKE CITY IN NOVEMBER. AND THAT DATE IS, I BELIEVE, NOVEMBER 21ST AND 22ND, 20TH THROUGH 22ND. I'M SORRY. AND THAT'LL BE IN DOWNTOWN SALT LAKE CITY. THE NATIONAL LEAGUE IS SIMILAR TO THE UTAH LEAGUE OF CITIES, OBVIOUSLY A NATIONAL. AND WE DO RECEIVE A DISCOUNT ON TICKETS FOR BEING A MEMBER OF THE UTAH LEAGUE OF CITIES AND TOWNS. THE OTHER THING I WANTED TO MENTION IS THE MAYOR, AND I HOPE I'M NOT STEALING YOUR THUNDER AS AS HOSTING SOME TOWN HALLS IN EACH OF THE DISTRICTS. 
          SO EACH OF YOU HAVE RECEIVED AN INVITATION FROM MISS MCDONALD IN THE MAYOR'S OFFICE FOR YOUR EVENTS. COUNCIL MEMBER LAM'S EVENT IS THIS THURSDAY EVENING. I'VE ALSO INCLUDED ALL THE AT LARGE COUNCIL MEMBERS TO ATTEND, AND THEN NEXT WEEK WE HAVE A COUPLE EVENTS. COUNCIL MEMBER BEDORE HAS HIS EVENT ON THE FOURTH AND THEN ON SEPTEMBER 5TH, THERE IS A PUSH IN CEREMONY WITH THE NEW FIRE TRUCK OUT AT STATION 55. SO WE HAVE THOSE EVENTS GOING ON. AND THEN I WANTED MR. HALLMARK JUST TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE YOUTH COUNCIL THAT IS STARTING UP NEXT WEEK, IF YOU CAN BELIEVE IT. YEAH, REALLY QUICKLY. WE HAVE YOUTH COUNCIL STARTING NEXT WEEK. WE HAVE 18 PARTICIPANTS THIS YEAR, SO OUR MAX IS 20. WE'RE HOPING THAT WE'LL GET THERE. WE WOULD ACCEPT ANY INTERESTED PARTIES UNTIL WE REACH THAT NUMBER. SO WE'RE PRETTY EXCITED TO GET GOING. WE HAVE COPPER HILLS, WEST JORDAN, THE TYPICAL REPRESENTATION AND THEN THE UTAH MILITARY ACADEMY. WE'VE GROWN FROM THERE. WE'VE GROWN NUMBERS FROM THERE YEAR BY YEAR. SO SOME SOME DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS, AND WE'RE EXCITED TO GET GOING WITH THEM NEXT WEEK. THAT'S OUR REPORT THIS EVENING. THANK YOU COUNCIL.

 Mayor’s Report]
          [01:45:05]
THANK YOU. WE'LL NOW GO FOR THE MAYOR'S REPORT. MAYOR BURTON, THANK YOU. AND THANK YOU. 
          COUNCIL MEMBERS WHO HAVE SIGNED UP FOR THE UTAH LEAGUE OF CITIES AND TOWNS CONFERENCE AND THOSE WHO HAVEN'T, I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO AT LEAST GET THEIR PART OF THE TIME TO DO THAT. I THINK THAT'S A VERY GOOD RESOURCE FOR OUR CITY. OKAY. LET'S START WITH 2200 WEST. YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED THAT 2200 WEST IMMEDIATELY WEST OF WELL BETWEEN 7000 SOUTH AND SUGAR FACTORY ROAD HAS BEEN REPAVED AND THE BIKE LANES HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE THE STATE PASSED A LAW THAT SAYS YOU CAN'T DRIVE OR PARK IN BIKE LANES. SO WE ADJUSTED IT SO PEOPLE CAN STILL PARK ON THE SIDE OF 2200 WEST, AND THE BIKES CAN STILL RIDE DOWN THAT ROAD. ALSO HAPPENING ON 2200 WEST. IF YOU LOOK AT THE PICTURE ON THE LEFT, WE ARE ADDING STREETLIGHTS ONTO THAT STREET, SO IT WOULD BE A GOOD STREET TO HAVE THAT ON SINCE IT GETS USED AT NIGHT FREQUENTLY. SO THAT IS IN THE PROCESS. THE BASES HAVE BEEN POURED AND READY, AND WHEN THE POLES GET INSTALLED, WE'LL HAVE LIGHTS OUT THERE SOON. YES, MAYOR, I JUST HAVE A REQUEST ON 2200. I REQUEST SOME RED PAINT BY BY DRIVEWAYS BECAUSE PEOPLE PARK RIGHT UP TO THE DRIVEWAY AND IT IS SO HARD TO SEE. AND IT'S DANGEROUS. THANK YOU. GENERALLY WE DON'T DO THE RED PAINT. WE DO SIGNS INSTEAD, BUT WE CAN DO THE SIGNS THERE HOWEVER YOU WANT TO HANDLE IT. BUT THEY NEED TO STOP PARKING RIGHT UP TO THE ENTRYWAYS. YOU'RE RIGHT. 
          SO THANK YOU FOR THAT. THANK YOU. I'LL FOLLOW UP ON THAT. OKAY. SO THAT'S 270 800 SOUTH. 
          YOU SEE THE CONTROL GONE OKAY. MAYBE THEY'RE NOT. BUT THE LANES ARE MOSTLY OPEN EXCEPT FOR WHEN THEY'RE DOING LITTLE PIECES. THEY DID COMPLETE THE WORK. BUT THEN WE HAVE A PUNCH LIST THAT WE'RE GOING THROUGH. AND THEY'RE DOING THE PUNCH LIST ITEMS. THE THINGS THAT ARE INSPECTORS WENT THROUGH THAT SAID THEY NEED TO COMPLETE OR CHANGE OR DO THAT. SO LANDSCAPING IS MOSTLY DONE. THAT'S WHY I SHOWED THIS PICTURE HERE THAT SHOWS LANDSCAPING. BUT ALSO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT IS GOING TO HELP A LOT IS HAVING THE TWO LANES GO ACROSS MOUNTAIN VIEW CORRIDOR, WHERE BEFORE THERE WAS JUST ONE LANE AND NOW THERE'S TWO. AND THAT'S MAKING A HUGE DIFFERENCE. AND SO WE'RE WE'RE THRILLED THAT THAT'S FINALLY DONE, ESPECIALLY WITH THE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC THAT'S IN THAT PART OF OUR CITY. THAT USED TO BE ONE OF THE WORST BOTTLENECKS IN OUR CITY. SO I'M GLAD TO SEE THAT DONE. OVER ON HAYDEN PEAK, OVER OVER NEAR HAYDEN PEAK SCHOOL, THERE'S SIDEWALK USED TO END WHERE THE SCHOOL PROPERTY ENDED BECAUSE THAT WAS JUST A FIELD THERE. NOW AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE'S BEEN A ROAD INSTALLED AND THERE IS A PATH THERE SO THE CHILDREN DON'T HAVE TO WALK THROUGH THE DIRT TO GET TO THE SCHOOL. AND THAT TAKES YOU ALL THE WAY OVER TO 4800 WEST. AND THE WHEELS PARK IS MAKING SOME GREAT PROGRESS. AS YOU CAN SEE, WE'VE ADDED SOME SHADE STRUCTURES. 
          AND THAT PICTURE ON THE TOP RIGHT THAT WAS TAKEN AT NIGHT IN THE DARK. WE HAVE LIGHTS. 
          THAT MEANS NOW THE KIDS CAN STAY UP LATE. THEY HAVE SCHOOL NIGHT WHEN THEY DON'T HAVE SCHOOL NIGHTS AND DO THAT RIGHT AFTER I TOOK THIS PICTURE, ABOUT FIVE MINUTES LATER, AN INFLUX OF KIDS SHOWED UP AND STARTED USING THAT STRUCTURE. BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE. WEST JORDAN WHEELS PARK, BUT WEST JORDAN WHEELS PARK BIKE PHASE TWO IS OPENING SEPTEMBER 13TH. 
          WE HOPE TO HAVE YOU THERE. THAT'S ON A SATURDAY AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE SOME PEOPLE WITH BETTER TALENTS THAN MYSELF SHOWING SOME DEMONSTRATIONS OF WHAT CAN BE DONE ON THAT NEW PART OF THE PARK THAT OPENS UP. WE DON'T HAVE THE TIME ON HERE. WHAT TIME IS THAT? 11 TO 1, 11 TO 1. SO THAT'S GREAT NEWS. THE SAD NEWS IS I WILL BE WATCHING MY GRANDSON DO A MOUNTAIN BIKE RACE IN IDAHO, AND I WILL NOT BE THERE. THAT. SO I'M HOPING SEVERAL OF YOU CAN BE THERE FOR THAT EVENT. THAT'S NOT SAD NEWS. IN OTHER NEWS MAYBE, BUT NOT SAD. IT'S SAD THAT I WON'T BE THERE. BUT YOU'LL BE WITH YOUR GRANDMA. I WILL BE WITH MY GRANDSON. SO THAT'S GREAT NEWS. 
          THAT'S BETTER NEWS. YOU'RE RIGHT. THAT'S WHY I WILL BE THERE INSTEAD OF HERE. SO. OKAY, NEXT ON THERE ON OCTOBER 2ND THROUGH THE FIFTH, THE BOYS AND GIRLS. ANYWAY, LET ME JUST TALK ABOUT THIS. THIS PICTURE HERE IS PUT INTO A BROCHURE. THERE'S THIS A, A NATIONAL ORGANIZATION THAT OUT OF MIAMI THAT AND WE BEAT MIAMI ON THE BID FOR THIS. WE ARE GOING TO BE HAVING THE WORLD CUP, YOUTH WORLD CUP SOCCER HAPPEN RIGHT HERE IN WEST JORDAN. AND THEY DO IT 
          [01:50:04]
ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND DIFFERENT PLACES. AND IT WAS DOWN TO TWO, WHICH WAS US IN MIAMI AND WE PULLED IT OFF. SO THAT'S GOING TO BE REAL COOL. IF YOU LOOK THROUGH THEIR LITERATURE. THE ONLY PART I DIDN'T LIKE IS THEY'RE SAYING, YEAH, WE'RE GOING TO SALT LAKE CITY FOR THAT TOURNAMENT. THEN THEY SAY IT'S IN WEST JORDAN AND THE OTHER PRINT, AND IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE OTHER WAY. WE'RE GOING TO WEST JORDAN FOR THAT TRIP. BUT MAYBE SOMEONE OUT THERE DOESN'T KNOW WHERE WEST JORDAN IS, BUT THEY WILL AFTER THIS. SO THIS IS PUTTING THIS ON THERE. AND I THINK THE PICTURE THEY CHOSE TO PUT ON THEIR BROCHURE IS A VERY COOL PICTURE. THAT IS GOOD LOOKING PHOTO. THEY DID THEIR. SO THAT'S GOING TO BE A THREE DAY EVENT. SO WATCH OUT FOR THE PEOPLE IN THAT AREA. THEY THOUGHT FOOTBALL IN THEIR PARKS IS THE COUNCIL MEMBER WAS TALKING ABOUT THERE'S A LOT OF PARKING ISSUES. THIS WILL CREATE EVEN MORE. MAYOR. THIS IS ACROSS TWO LOCATIONS. THERE'S THE SOCCER COMPLEX IS THERE AS WELL. THERE'S TWO SECTIONS OF THE OF THE SOCCER PARK ALL AT THE SAME SOCCER COMPLEX. JUST. OKAY. YEAH. JUST CHECKING. I KNOW I SAW THAT WORD THAT TWO LOCATIONS. I THOUGHT THAT WAS INTERESTING. OKAY. I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO THE UTAH BICYCLE SUMMIT, WHICH WAS HELD AT UTAH VALLEY UNIVERSITY. AND IT'S INTERESTING BECAUSE I'VE BEEN ATTENDING THESE SINCE I'VE BEEN ON THE THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE PARTICIPATION OF COMMUNITIES CONTINUES TO INCREASE EVERY YEAR AND BIKING CONTINUES TO INCREASE. AND I'VE SEEN AN INFLUX AND THE STATE IS DOING MORE WITH IT. SO SO BIKING IS IS MAKING GREAT PROGRESS NOT ONLY IN WEST JORDAN, BUT THROUGHOUT THE STATE AND IN OTHER STATES. AND I'M GLAD TO SEE THAT. AND THEY'RE TAKING AND HELPING THE STATE UNDERSTAND HOW TO DO THIS, MAKE THIS GO FORWARD. SO I ALWAYS GREAT TO BE A PART OF THAT GRIZZLY WAY. I PICKED GRIZZLY WAY BECAUSE GRIZZLY WAY HAD THE CHIP AND SEAL DONE LIKE 48TH, 40TH WEST DID, AND LIKE 64TH WEST END, SOME OTHER STREETS. BUT AFTER THEY DID THAT, WE RESTRIPE AND THERE WERE BIKE LANES ON GRIZZLY WAY BEFORE. BUT NOW THE BIKE LANES ARE GETTING A LOT MORE ATTENTION. 
          WE'RE PUTTING THESE GREEN BOXES DOWN TO HELP PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT THAT'S A BIKE LANE, AND WE JUST PUT THAT AT THE START AND STOP WITH SOME OF THE BIKE LANE AREAS TO HELP DRAW ATTENTION TO THAT. IN FACT, IT'S DONE SUCH A GREAT JOB. WE'VE GOTTEN A FEW CALLS FROM PEOPLE SAYING, WHY ARE YOU PUTTING BIKE LANES ON THIS ROAD? AND I THOUGHT, THEY'VE BEEN THERE BEFORE AND THEY HAVEN'T NOTICED. SO THAT MEANS THIS IS WORKING. YOU MAY HAVE SEEN THIS IN SOME OTHER COMMUNITIES, BUT NOW WE'RE GETTING THAT HERE AS WELL. SO THOSE ARE SOME CHANGES THAT WE ARE MAKING TO HELP PROMOTE BIKING. AS YOU SAW IN THE LAST PART. AND THEN I WAS GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE FOOTBALL LEAGUE, BUT I THINK COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON DID A REAL GOOD JOB TALKING ABOUT THAT. HE AND I HAVE GONE OUT AND MET WITH SOME OF THE RESIDENTS, AND THEN WE'VE ALSO GONE OUT AND MET WITH SOME OF THE PLAYERS, PARENTS AND COACHES, AND WE HAVE MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS AND CHANGES, AND WE HAVE ALSO MET WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT OUR CITY HAS, AND TO HELP CONNECT THAT, TO HELP THIS WORK OUT AS SMOOTH AS POSSIBLE. AND IT IS, YOU KNOW, IT IS A REAL CHALLENGE WHEN YOUR PARK HAS BEEN KIND OF YOUR OWN PERSONAL PARK AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU'RE INVADED. BUT IT WASN'T JUST INVADED. IT'S LIKE THE DAY WE SHOWED UP, THERE WERE SIX TEAMS ON THE ONE PARK, AND SO WE CAN IMAGINE HOW MANY KIDS AND PARENTS THAT BRINGS OUT. AND WE'VE MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS WITH THE FOOTBALL LEAGUE. AND IF THEY DON'T RESOLVE THEIR CONFLICT THERE, IF THEY DON'T WORK IT OUT WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT TO BE BACK ON THE SCHOOL GROUNDS NEXT YEAR, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE SOME ADDITIONAL ADJUSTMENTS TO MAKE US MORE COMPATIBLE SO THE RESIDENTS DON'T FEEL LIKE THEY'VE BEEN INVADED IN THEIR OWN NEIGHBORHOODS. AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO WATCH THAT WORK WITH THAT. OVER AT THE CEMETERY, WE NOW HAVE A COLUMBARIUM, AND THAT'S THE PICTURES YOU'RE SEEING RIGHT THERE. AND WHAT IS WHICH I DIDN'T KNOW UNTIL JUST TODAY THAT HAS 780 NICHES IN THERE, WHICH MEANS 780 BURIALS THAT THAT WILL TAKE IN THERE. AND IN ADDITION TO THAT, THERE'S A COMMUNITY ONE, WHICH MEANS YOU DON'T KEEP YOUR ASHES SEPARATE FROM EVERYBODY ELSE. 
          YOU JUST COMBINE AND PUT THEM IN THERE. SO COMMUNITY ASHES, AND YOU JUST PUT THEM IN THERE AND THAT'LL HOLD UP TO TWO ANOTHER 250. SO IF YOU ADD THOSE TOGETHER THAT'S OVER A THOUSAND BURIALS THAT WE'VE ADDED IN OUR CEMETERY. BY PUTTING THIS COLUMBARIUM IN THERE, NOT TO MENTION THE BENCHES THAT WE HAVE THERE AND THE GREAT LANDSCAPING THAT WE DID LOCALLY. AND HOUSE MAYOR. YES, THAT IS SUCH AN IMPROVEMENT OVER THE OLD RED SEXTON BUILDING. I'M GLAD THAT IT'S FINALLY GONE. THANK YOU. YOU CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE. 
          YOU CAN TELL A DIFFERENCE. YEAH. THANK YOU. OKAY. UPCOMING EVENTS FOOD TRUCKS ARE STILL 
          [01:55:08]
HAPPENING. GOES ALL THE WAY THROUGH SEPTEMBER. SO DON'T THINK WITH SCHOOL STARTS OR THE WEATHER IS GETTING NICER, THE FOOD TRUCKS ARE OVER. THEY ARE NOT. THEY ARE STILL HAPPENING. 
          COMMUNITY MARKET THAT'S STILL HAPPENING. THAT HAPPENS ALL THE WAY THROUGH SEPTEMBER AS WELL. 
          IN FACT, THE LAST DAY WON'T BE UNTIL OCTOBER 1ST. SO BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THAT GOES. SO KEEP COMING OUT TO OUR COMMUNITY MARKETS. THAT'S BEEN HAVING A VERY GOOD TURNOUT EVERY YEAR. 
          THE JORDAN RIVER COMMISSION SPONSORS TO GET INTO THE RIVER EVENTS. I'M SORRY, GET TO THE RIVER EVENTS. I WISH IT WAS GETTING TO THE RIVER. I TRIED TO DO THAT. AND WEST JORDAN ALWAYS DOES THE SCAVENGER HUNT, AND THEY'LL BE DOING THAT AGAIN THIS YEAR. WHAT THAT IS, IS A PHOTO SCAVENGER HUNT. YOU HAVE A LIST, YOU GO OUT THERE ON THE RIVER AND YOU FIND THINGS THAT FIT THE DESCRIPTION AND TAKE A PICTURE OF THAT, AND YOU SUBMIT IT BACK TO THE CITY AND YOU CAN WIN SOME PRIZES. SO WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO GO OUT THERE. AND BUT THE BEST PRIZE IS GETTING OUT ON THE RIVER AND SEEING THOSE COOL THINGS THAT YOU TAKE PICTURES OF. OKAY, WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE PUSH IN CEREMONY. SOMEBODY ASKED ME WHAT TIME, WHAT IS THE PUSH IN CEREMONY? THAT'S BECAUSE WE PUSH IN THE FIRE TRUCK. ON HIS VERY FIRST OPPORTUNITY TO BE IN THE FIREHOUSE. OKAY, FIRST FRIDAY IS COMING UP SEPTEMBER 5TH. THIS IS GOING TO BE A GREAT ONE. IT'LL BE A BEATLES TRIBUTE BAND. SO SOME OF YOU WHO ARE YOUNGER, THE BEATLES IS NOT JUST AN ANIMAL, IT'S ACTUALLY A GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT SING SONGS FROM ENGLAND, AND THEY ARE VERY GOOD AT IT. AND I RECOMMEND YOU COME AND HEAR ABOUT IT. THOSE THAT DO KNOW IT, YOU DON'T NEED ME TO TELL YOU BECAUSE YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT IT IS AND YOU'LL WANT TO BE THERE. SO LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU THERE. SOMETHING ELSE IS HAPPENING. ON SEPTEMBER 6TH, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A SPLASH PARTY BECAUSE IT'S FOR THE PAWS. I WILL PAUSE WHILE YOU THINK ABOUT THAT. OKAY, SO BRING YOUR DOG AND LET HIM PLAY IN THE SPLASH PAD. YES, WE WILL BE CLEANING ALL THE FILTERS AFTERWARDS AND THEN YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THIS ALREADY. BUT I'M GOING TO REMIND YOU BECAUSE WE'VE DISCUSSED IT AND I HEARD IT TALKED ABOUT EARLIER, THE IHCC COPPER HILLS CLINIC GROUNDBREAKING WILL BE WEDNESDAY THE 27TH AT 11:00. 
          I'M SORRY. NOT YEAH, I SAID IT RIGHT. GROUNDBREAKING. SO IT'LL BE A GREAT, GREAT EVENT YOU'LL WANT TO DIG. SO PLEASE COME JOIN US THERE. THAT IS MY REPORT. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

ALL OF THE CITY DEPARTMENTS WILL OCCUR FOR EIGHT WEEKS STARTING ON SEPTEMBER 3RD AND GOING THROUGH THE END OF OCTOBER.
