[Call to Order]

[00:00:07]

EVENING EVERYONE. I WILL NOW CALL THE OCTOBER 13TH, 2026 CITY COUNCIL MEETING TO ORDER.

THE TIME IS 7:00 PM. I WOULD LIKE TO INVITE WILLIAM ROYCE TO SAY THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE FOR US TONIGHT. CITIZENS PLEASE RISE. TAKE OFF YOUR HEADWEAR AND JOIN ME IN THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE. 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. THANK YOU. TONIGHT WE'RE GOING TO START WITH THE SPECIAL

[a. Recognition of an Amazing Save by West Jordan Fire Department]

WHEN I DID MY CPR, I, I KNEW I DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE 40 YEARS OF REGRET. AND SO I WENT UPSTAIRS AND, AND BEGAN CPR ON WHITNEY AND, AND THE DISPATCHER WAS ON THE PHONE WITH ALICE. AND THEY JUST, YOU KNOW, WALKED ME THROUGH AND I'M SORRY IF I SWORE AT THE DISPATCH. I APOLOGIZE RIGHT NOW. AND THE DISPATCHER AND THEN THE AMBULANCE CAME AND IT WAS JUST THERE WAS FIREFIGHTERS AND, AND, AND AN AMBULANCE AND COPS. AND IT WAS THE WHOLE STREET WAS JUST LIT UP. AND THEY SAVED MY WIFE'S LIFE. AND THEY TOOK HER TO JORDAN VALLEY AND JORDAN

[00:05:06]

AND THE FIRST NIGHT AT INTERMOUNTAIN MEDICAL CENTER, SHE HAD A STROKE. AND I REMEMBER GETTING A CALL AT 330 IN THE MORNING FROM THORACIC ICU. AND I THOUGHT, OH, THIS ISN'T GOOD. I'M GETTING A PHONE CALL RIGHT NOW. AND AND THEY SAID, YOUR WIFE HAD A STROKE.

WE'RE TAKING HER IN. AND AT FIRST I THOUGHT SHE SHE HAD SOME LEFT SIDED WEAKNESS AND INATTENTION. AND, AND SHE HAS JUST MADE A MIRACLE RECOVERY IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE. SHE'S FULLY BACK TO WORK AND AND RECOVERED, AND I COULDN'T BE MORE PROUD OF HER. AND AND BUT I KNEW THAT SHE'S SPECIAL AND AND WE LOVE HER VERY MUCH. AND I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO THE FIREFIGHTERS AND THE AMBULANCE AND EVERYBODY THAT HELPED OUT. YOU KNOW, LIKE I SAID, WORKING AT THE HOSPITAL, YOU SEE DOCTORS AND RESPIRATORY THERAPISTS AND. BUT NOBODY EVER TALKS ABOUT FIREFIGHTERS. AND THEY'RE THE FIRST PEOPLE THAT YOU THAT SEES A PATIENT AND GETS THE PATIENT STABILIZED TO SEE A DOCTOR. AND SO IF YOU KNOW, THE PATIENT DOESN'T MAKE IT TO THE HOSPITAL TO SEE A DOCTOR, THEN THERE'S NO CHANCE OF SAVING THEM. AND SO I REALLY WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR THE FIREFIGHTERS. THEY THEY'RE UNBELIEVABLE. AND YOU GUYS SAVED MY LIFE, MY WIFE'S LIFE. SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU STEPHEN. SO AS I MENTIONED, THERE WERE QUITE A FEW PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THIS AND WE WOULD LIKE TO RECOGNIZE EACH OF THEM.

SO IF I COULD HAVE BRAD JENSEN, WHO IS A PARAMEDIC WITH US, KRISTEN ROLFE, WHO'S ALSO A PARAMEDIC, CAPTAIN MIKE MOON, SKIP TAYLOR, WHO IS THE ENGINEER, CODY HILLS, WHO IS A FIREFIGHTER. PORTER SCOTT AS A FIREFIGHTER, JESSE MCKENNA WAS OUR BATTALION CHIEF. POLICE OFFICERS THAT WERE ON SCENE. CARSON WINWARD, GRIFFIN WINWARD AND AARON CURTIS. AND THEN THE DISPATCHER. THAT WAS SO HELPFUL ON THE PHONE IS TO GAGA. DID I SAY THAT RIGHT? ALL RIGHT.

PERFECT. AND WE'D LIKE TO TO JUST TURN OVER BRIEFLY FOR A MINUTE TO TAYLOR JONES, WHO IS OUR ZONE REP. AS YOU GUYS ARE WELL AWARE, WE JUST PURCHASED NEW CARDIAC MONITORS JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO. AND HE ALSO WOULD LIKE TO JUST SHARE BRIEFLY SOME THOUGHTS AND HAS AN AWARD FOR EACH OF THEM. SO TURN THE TIME OVER TO HIM. THANKS, CHIEF. GOOD EVENING ALL. SO MY NAME IS TAYLOR JONES AND I WORK FOR ZOLL MEDICAL, WHICH IS THE MANUFACTURER OF THE CARDIAC MONITOR AND WHICH WAS USED TO DEFIBRILLATE ON THAT, THAT THAT DAY. AND I'M EXTREMELY PROUD TO BE HERE. ONE, THIS IS A BRAND NEW TECHNOLOGY, BRAND NEW DEVICE THAT WE'VE BEEN ROLLING OUT THROUGH THE VALLEY. AND WEST JORDAN WAS ACTUALLY THE FIRST. YOU GUYS ARE CUTTING EDGE WITH US. AND THIS IS THE FIRST DOCUMENTED SAVE WITH THE NEW CARDIAC MONITORS IN ANY CITY HERE IN THE VALLEY. SO IT'S EXTREMELY AWESOME. AND WE LOVE TO CELEBRATE SUCCESSES AND THE EXTREMELY GRATEFUL TO YOU FOR THE PARTNERSHIP THAT WE HAVE WITH THE PARAMEDICS THAT WORK IN YOUR GUYS'S CITY. SO ZOLL HAS THESE REALLY GREAT COINS. THEY'RE SAVE COINS. THEY SAY ZOLL ON THEM, RIGHT? AND THEY'RE FOR CARDIAC ARREST SURVIVORS AND PARTICIPANTS FOR ALL THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE INVOLVED. AND SO WE ALSO HAVE SOME CERTIFICATES.

UNFORTUNATELY, ONLY ABOUT 80% OF THE CERTIFICATES MADE IT FROM UPS. I WAS WATCHING THE SECOND DELIVERY TRUCK, AND IT WASN'T GOING TO MAKE IT FROM MY HOME IN KAYSVILLE TO BE HERE IN TIME. SO I'LL BE RUNNING AROUND A FEW OF THOSE TOMORROW. BUT ANYWAYS, JUST WANT TO SAY CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF YOU AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PARTNERING WITH ZOLL AND, AND FOR WHAT, WHAT YOU WERE ABLE TO DO FOR, FOR HER ON THAT DAY. SO.

[00:10:19]

I SKIPPED ONE LITTLE PIECE. I'M GOING TO INVITE JAY LARSON, WHO IS OUR JORDAN VALLEY HOSPITAL EMS LIAISON, TO COME UP. HE'S GOING TO SHARE JUST A LITTLE BIT AND THEN ALSO PRESENT SOME OF THE CREWS. HELLO. SO YES, MY NAME IS JAY LARSON. I'M THE EMS COORDINATOR AT HOLY CROSS HOSPITAL, JORDAN VALLEY. TONIGHT WE'RE HERE TO HONOR THESE MEMBERS OF THE WEST JORDAN FIRE DEPARTMENT WHO SWIFT SKILLED ACTIONS LED TO THE BEST POSSIBLE OUTCOME FOR OUR PATIENT THROUGH THEIR OUTSTANDING TRAINING AND TEAMWORK. LIFE SAVING CARE BEGAN IN THE FIELD BEFORE THE PATIENT WAS TRANSPORTED TO HOLY CROSS HOSPITAL. JORDAN VALLEY PATIENT WAS TAKEN TO THE CARDIAC CATH LAB FOR SPECIALIZED INTERVENTION AND SUBSEQUENTLY CARED FOR IN THE ICU, WHERE SHE RECEIVED RECOVERY SUPPORT. HAVING WORKED ALONGSIDE THIS TEAM ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, ALL OF US AT HOLY CROSS HOSPITAL JORDAN VALLEY ARE DEEPLY GRATEFUL WITNESSES TO THE EXCEPTIONAL LENGTHS TO WHICH THEY GO TO DELIVER COMPASSIONATE, HIGH QUALITY EMERGENCY CARE. OUR COMMUNITY IS SAFER AND STRONGER BECAUSE OF THEIR CLINICAL EXPERTISE, DEDICATION AND GENUINE PASSION FOR SERVING OTHERS WITH SINCERE GRATITUDE. I'M HONORED TO PRESENT THIS PLOT TO THE CREW ON BEHALF OF THE ENTIRE STAFF AT HOLY CROSS HOSPITAL, JORDAN VALLEY. I MEAN, THERE YOU GO. EVERY.

WITH THAT, WE JUST LIKE TO ALSO SAY THANK YOU TO YOU AS A COUNCIL FOR APPROPRIATING THE THE FUNDING THAT WE NEED FOR THE TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT THAT, THAT WE USE TO, TO HELP IN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS. WE REALLY APPRECIATE IT. AND WITH THAT, WE WOULD JUST LIKE TO INVITE ALL THE FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND FIRST RESPONDERS OVER TO THE STATION JUST NEXT DOOR. WE HAVE SOME COOKIES AND PUNCH AND WE CAN VISIT AND, AND TALK. BUT THANK YOU. WE APPRECIATE IT. NO,

[00:15:03]

THANK YOU. ONE. TWO. THREE.

NO. COUNCIL CHAIR MIGHT TAKE A CHAIR. I TAKE A MOMENT OF PRIVILEGE. YES, PLEASE. WE HAVE THE VAC LEADERSHIP HERE. OUR DISPATCH CENTER. I JUST WANT TO. I JUST WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT TO RECOGNIZE THEM A LITTLE BIT MORE TO OUR DISPATCH CENTER IS AMAZING. THEY TAKE HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF CALLS EVERY YEAR AND REALLY DO AN OUTSTANDING JOB WITH THAT VERY FIRST MOMENT OF FIRST RESPONSE, AND WE'RE VERY GRATEFUL FOR THEM. WE'RE THANKFUL OUR VAC LEADERSHIP COULD COME AND BE HERE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

OKAY. WE WILL PROCEED. I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF OUR OTHER AGENDA ITEMS WILL BE THAT COOL

[a. City Council Reports]

YEAH, I WOULD LIKE TO JUMP ON THAT. A LITTLE BIT OF THE ALL THE RIBBON CUTTINGS AND, AND THINGS WE'VE HAD SO MANY GREAT COMPANIES WANT TO BE HERE IN WEST JORDAN. AND I REALLY THINK THAT THAT'S A TESTAMENT TO THE STAFF WE HAVE HERE AT WEST JORDAN. BUT THEN ALSO THE RESIDENTS WE HAVE THAT THESE ARE ARE PEOPLE THAT THAT BUSINESSES WANT TO COME AND, AND BE A PART OF ALSO WANT TO JUST. SAY HOW GREAT IT IS AS A COUNCIL TO NOT ONLY SEE SOMETHING LIKE THAT, BUT AND MOST OF THE PEOPLE IN THIS COUNCIL KNOW I CAN'T GET THROUGH A COMMERCIAL WITHOUT CRYING. BUT AND HOW HOW THAT HUSBAND GAVE THE THE RECOUNT OF

[00:20:01]

AND THERE'S PEOPLE, LIKE I SAID, WHEN CHIEF, THE CHIEF BROUGHT THAT UP AND SAID, YOU KNOW, I THINK THIS WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE HOW GREAT IT IS. TO SEE THAT DIFFERENCE BEING MADE AND TO BE ABLE TO TO KNOW AND, YOU KNOW, YOU BUY THESE THINGS HOPING YOU NEVER HAVE TO USE THEM. BUT THEN YOU'RE SO GLAD TO KNOW THAT IT WAS ON THERE. AND WHAT I LOVE ABOUT WEST JORDAN AND, AND, YOU KNOW, SOME CITIZENS MIGHT NOT LIKE IT, BUT I ALWAYS TELL OUR DEPARTMENT HEADS, DON'T CUT CORNERS, DO WHAT IS GOING TO BE BEST FOR THIS CITY. COME TO ME WITH A BUDGET THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO THE BEST YOU CAN FOR THIS CITY. AND THEN WE'LL DECIDE AND WE'LL MAKE SOME THINGS ON THAT. BUT DON'T TRY TO CUT CORNERS. AND I'M SO GLAD THAT THIS ONE CAME OUT THE WAY IT DID. AND I WILL ALWAYS LOOK FOR THAT, AND I'LL ALWAYS WANT TO DO WHAT'S BEST FOR THE CITY. AND SAVING A LIFE IS CERTAINLY BEST FOR THAT. WITH THAT, I DO WANT TO TALK REAL BRIEFLY ON ONE THING THAT I THINK THAT I WANT TO START WORKING WITH THE CITY MORE ON, AND THAT IS THE PARKING PROBLEM WE HAVE WITH WEST JORDAN HIGH SCHOOL, HAVING THEIR PARKING LOT BEING REWORKED AND PEOPLE HAVING TO PARK IN OUR RESIDENTIAL AREAS. I THINK IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO ADDRESS. MORE STRONGLY THAN WE'RE DOING, AND WE NEED TO LOOK INTO. I SAY THAT BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO BE COMING INTO AN AREA WHEN, YOU KNOW, WE LIKELY ARE GOING TO HAVE A MUCH BIGGER SNOWSTORM, CERTAINLY THAN WE HAD LAST YEAR. AND IF WE DON'T ADDRESS THIS NOW, IT'S JUST GOING TO GET WORSE. WHEN THE SNOW IS THERE. I ALSO DON'T LIKE THAT WE'RE ALLOWING SOMETHING TO HAPPEN THAT'S JUST GOING TO BECOME A HABIT. AND I WOULD LIKE TO SEE US ADDRESS THAT. SO I'M GOING TO BE WORKING WITH MEMBERS OF THIS COUNCIL AND WITH CITY STAFF TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION FOR THIS. IT HAS TO BE DONE. WE CAN'T JUST HAVE MEETINGS. I KNOW WE HAD A MEETING LAST WEDNESDAY. I HAVE NOT SEEN ANYTHING COME FROM THAT MEETING. AND SO IT NEEDS TO BE SOMETHING THAT WE'RE ON TOP OF AND MAKING SURE IT'S GOING ON. SO THIS WAS JUST ME ALERTING THE CITY STAFF THAT I'M GOING TO BE TALKING TO YOU MORE. AND I SENT A BIG TEXT ON IT, DIDN'T GET A REPLY. SO THAT'S WHY I'M TALKING HERE NOW, NOT TO YOU, TO THE GUY NEXT TO YOU. AND I'M NOT CALLING YOU OUT AS A BAD GUY. I KNOW YOU'RE A GOOD GUY, BUT THIS IS WHY I WANTED TO TALK HERE LIVE SO THAT IT'S ON RECORD HERE. I LOVE THIS CITY, AND I'LL ALWAYS TRY TO DO WHAT IS BEST FOR THIS CITY. OKAY, VICE CHAIR SHELTON.

I JUST WANTED TO REPORT THAT I ATTENDED THE WEST JORDAN POLICE PRAYER BREAKFAST ON SATURDAY MORNING WITH COUNCIL MEMBER WIGNALL. IT WAS A WONDERFUL EVENT AND WE GOT TO MEET LEADERS FROM DIFFERENT DENOMINATIONS HERE IN WEST JORDAN, INCLUDING THE IMAM FROM THE UTAH MUSLIM CENTER. AND ALSO GOT TO MEET CHAPLAINS IN THE FROM THE WEST JORDAN CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT WHO WORK AS VOLUNTEERS FOR OUR CITY, WHO ARE A HUGE BENEFIT TO OUR OFFICERS AND OFFICERS WHO WHO FACE LIFE CHANGING EVENTS ON A DAILY BASIS. THOSE CHAPLAINS ARE THERE TO LEND SUPPORT TO. TO THOSE OFFICERS AND, AND HELP THEM GIVE AID TO THE RESIDENTS.

THE PRAYER BREAKFAST WAS A GREAT WAY FOR ME TO. IT WAS GREAT FOR ME TO SEE THAT FAITH CAN BE INTERTWINED WITH GOVERNMENT IN SOME WAYS, AND THAT. THAT THROUGH THE WORK OF THE CHAPLAINS AND THE DIFFERENT DENOMINATIONAL LEADERS HERE IN OUR CITY, THAT THERE THE GREAT GOOD IS, IS BROUGHT TO BROUGHT TO PASS. AND SO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR FOR THAT. CHIEF ROBINSON. COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB. THANK YOU. I WANTED TO EXPRESS MY THOUGHTS TO THE GROUP, BUT

[00:25:08]

WHEN YOU'RE BUYING A HOT TUB, IT'S A GOOD DAY, RIGHT? IT'S ALWAYS THEY WERE ALWAYS HAPPY.

BUT THESE GUYS NEVER SEE ANYBODY ON THEIR BEST DAY. THEY ONLY EVER SEE ANYBODY ON THEIR WORST DAY. AND, AND WHAT A, WHAT A LOAD THAT IS TO CARRY AND TO DO IT WITH VERY LITTLE RECOGNITION. SO ANYWAY, VERY HAPPY THAT WE WERE ABLE TO, TO RECOGNIZE THEM THIS EVENING. I ALSO WANTED TO MENTION AN EVENT THAT I WAS ABLE TO ATTEND WITH MISS STECK FROM OUR ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES DEPARTMENT. SHE AND I WERE ASKED TO DO A TRAINING AT THE UTAH GOVERNMENT FINANCE OFFICERS ASSOCIATION. OH, I GOT THAT RIGHT CONFERENCE THAT THEY HAD. IT WAS IN WEST VALLEY CITY LAST WEEK, AND WE DID A. WE WE DID A SESSION, A CLASS.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU WANT TO CALL IT, BUT IT WAS A COUPLE HOURS AT TO CITY COUNCILS AND IT WAS A REALLY, REALLY FUN EVENT, REALLY GREAT. AND DENISE GOT LOTS OF GREAT FEEDBACK. SO THAT'S AWESOME. SHE'S, SHE'S A ROCK STAR, AS WE ALL KNOW. SO I JUST WANT TO SHARE THAT. THANK YOU. DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER COUNCIL REPORTS? OKAY. WE'LL MOVE ON TO OUR MAYOR REPORT.

[b. Mayor’s Report]

OUR FOOD TRUCKS OVER AT ROUNDWOOD PARK. IT'S OVER AND DONE. AND OUR FARMERS MARKET OVER, VETERANS MEMORIAL PARK, IT'S OVER AND DONE. WITH BOTH SUCCESSFUL. THE NUMBERS OF THE FARMERS MARKET THIS YEAR WERE HIGHER THAN THE NUMBERS THAT THE FARMERS MARKET LAST YEAR.

THE NUMBERS OF THE FOOD TRUCK ROUNDUP THIS YEAR WERE A LITTLE BIT LOWER THAN THE NUMBERS OF THE FOOD TRUCK LAST YEAR. AND ACCORDING TO THE FOOD TRUCK LEAGUE, THEY SAID THAT'S STANDARD ACROSS THE BOARD. FOR SOME REASON, FOOD TRUCKS WERE NOT AS EXCITING THIS YEAR, HOWEVER, WAS I. WHEN I WENT OUT THERE AND TALKED TO THE PEOPLE, THE FOOD TRUCKS, THEY WERE HAPPY TO BE THERE AND THEY WERE GLAD THEY SAID IT WAS A SUCCESS, SO THEY HAD ENOUGH SALES TO MAKE IT WORTH THEM. AND THE PEOPLE WHO WERE THERE WERE HAPPY TO HAVE THE FOOD. SO I WILL COUNT THAT AS A SUCCESS AS WELL. ANOTHER RIBBON CUTTING THAT WE GOT TO GO TO WAS FOR TRIM LIGHT. SO WE CUT THE RIBBON THERE. THEY DO THE HOLIDAY LIGHTING ON THE PERMANENT HOLIDAY LIGHTING ON HOUSES AND COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS. AND THEY ARE A WEST JORDAN COMPANY THAT STARTED IN GARAGES AND HAS WORKED ITS WAY INTO DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. AND EACH LOCATION HAS BEEN IN WEST JORDAN. AND THIS ONE HERE IS THEIR BIGGEST, FANCIEST, MOST EXCITING LOCATION. THEY ARE NOW A A US WIDE COMPANY THAT SELLS THIS. THIS STARTED RIGHT HERE IN WEST JORDAN ACROSS THE COUNTRY. SO WEST JORDAN IS LETTING ITS LIGHT SHINE ALL

[00:30:01]

YOU PROBABLY CAN'T SEE IT, BUT IT HAS A BUNCH OF DOGS ON IT. SO I SO VETERINARY DOES DOGS.

SO THIS IS EXCITING. THIS IS ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE CITY. THE ONLY VETERINARY CLINIC WE HAVE ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE CITY. SO FOR ALL THOSE PEOPLE THERE, THERE'S ANOTHER ONE ON THE WEST SIDE. OH, OKAY. SCRAP THAT. I BEEN CORRECTED. ANYWAY, IT'S ANOTHER ONE OVER ON THE WEST SIDE TO HELP SERVICE THE RESIDENTS ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE CITY. SO WE'RE HAPPY TO HAVE THAT ONE OUT THERE. ANOTHER CHOICE FOR OUR RESIDENTS OUT THERE. I WANT TO MENTION SOMETHING ABOUT ALIGNED ENERGY, WHICH ACTUALLY THEY HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED BY ANOTHER COMPANY. THEY ARE NOW CALLED ALIGN DATA WITHOUT THE WORD ENERGY IN THEIR. I WENT AND MET WITH THEM. WE HAVE BEEN GETTING SOME QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS FROM NEARBY RESIDENTS ABOUT IT.

SO JIM, GROVER, MYSELF AND PAUL WENT AND TOOK A TOUR THERE ALONG WITH THE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT. AND THOSE UNITS YOU'RE LOOKING AT WERE ON THE ROOF IN THIS PICTURE YOU'RE LOOKING AT. AND THOSE ARE THE COOLING UNITS AND THOSE RUN A LOT. AND ALTHOUGH THEY THE NOISE ON THOSE MAY BE BELOW THE THRESHOLD FROM THE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT. IT'S A CONSTANT SOUND. AND WHEN YOU LIVE CLOSE BY, IT KIND OF WEARS ON YOU AFTER A WHILE. AND THEY HAVE AGREED TO DO A STUDY UP THERE AND FIND OUT SOME WAYS THEY CAN HELP MITIGATE THE SOUND TO BE BETTER, BETTER NEIGHBORS WITH THE LOCALS THAT ARE CLOSE BY THERE. AND SO YOU'LL BE SEEING SOME THINGS HAPPENING DIFFERENTLY OUT THERE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. BUT ONE OF THE GREATEST THINGS THEY'RE GOING TO BE DOING IS PUT A COMMITTEE TOGETHER THAT WILL INCLUDE SOME OF THE RESIDENTS THAT LIVE CLOSE BY TO SEE AND HEAR WHAT HAPPENS OVER THERE, SO THEY CAN MAKE IT WORK OUT BETTER FOR THEM. SO WE APPRECIATE THE ALIGN DATA IS WORKING THAT WITH THEIR RESIDENTS. SO, MAYOR? YES, CAN YOU ALIGN ME LIKE, WHERE IS THIS ON THE PROPERTY AND ARE YOU FACING WE'RE ON TOP OF THE BUILDING. YOU'RE ON TOP OF THE BUILDING. OH, OKAY. AND IS THIS CLOSE TO 3200 OR CLOSE TO BANGERTER THAT IS CLOSER TO BANGERTER? THERE'S ACTUALLY A ROW OF RESIDENTS IN BETWEEN BANGERTER AND THE WIND ENERGY, AND THEY GET TO HEAR BOTH OF THEM ON THOSE RESIDENTS. THEY HEAR BOTH BANGERTER HIGHWAY AND ALIGNED ENERGY. SO THEY'RE REALLY SCARY. THEY HAVE BOTH THOSE. THANK YOU. OKAY. AND THE NEXT ONE IS OUR FIRST FRIDAY EVENT. THIS WAS LAST FRIDAY. YES. RIGHT. WAS THAT THE FIRST? YEAH, IT WAS THE FIRST FRIDAY. SO AM I OFF A WEEK? NO, THAT THAT WAS CORRECT. SOMETIMES MY WEEKS MIX UP AND THIS IS OUR BACK INDOORS AGAIN NOW BECAUSE YOU KNOW WE HOLD THOSE OF THE MERIDIAN AND IT'S OUTDOORS IN THE MERIDIAN DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS. AND NOW WE'RE BACK TO BEING INDOORS. ALTHOUGH THE WEATHER ON THIS ONE WAS SO NICE, WE COULD HAVE BEEN OUTDOORS.

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

OKAY. AND THE NEXT ONE IS THE WEST JORDAN SYMPHONY. WE GOT TO GO. I GOT TO GO LISTEN TO WEST JORDAN SYMPHONY OVER IN THE BRAND NEW ARTS BUILDING THAT WE HAVE OVER HERE. AND THEY DID A GREAT JOB. IN FACT, THEY FILLED THIS ROOM WITH JUST THE PEOPLE WHO PLAYED THIS. THE SYMPHONY CONTINUES TO GROW. AND THAT WAS THEY WERE PACKED IN THERE SO TIGHT AND THEY SOLD OUT. SO THEY DID TWO SHOWS AND BOTH SHOWS SOLD OUT. AND THAT WAS VERY IMPRESSIVE. AND, AND

[00:35:07]

ANYWAY, IT WAS GREAT THAT WE HAD A PLACE THAT WOULD ACCOMMODATE THEM IN THIS, SO THAT'S GREAT. OH, UPCOMING EVENTS, CPR. IT'S NOT QUITE AS DRAMATIC AS WHAT WE GOT TO HEAR ABOUT EARLIER TODAY, BUT IT COULD FILL IN UNTIL THE DRAMATIC ONE GETS THERE. SO IF YOU WANT TO TAKE A CPR CLASS FROM OUR FIRE FIGHTERS OR COME AND JOIN US THERE, THAT IS OPEN.

WE ALSO THEY ALSO PUT ON BABYSITTING ACADEMY. SO IF YOU HAVE A YOUNGSTER WHO WANTS TO LEARN HOW TO BE A GREAT BABYSITTER, HAVE THEM COME SIGN UP FOR OUR CLASSES. I HAVE DONE THE CPR CLASS WITH THEM AND THE FIRST AID CLASS, BUT I HAVE NOT DONE THE BABYSITTING CLASS AND THEN THE OUR CRAFTS AND CRAVINGS. OUR NEXT ONE IS GOING TO BE MONDAY, OCTOBER 21ST OR WE'RE SOLD OUT. SO IF YOU'RE NOT SIGNED UP, YOU ARE TOO LATE. I'M SORRY. AND THAT IS OUR LAST ONE OF THE SEASON AS WELL. BUT JUST KNOW THAT WE'VE HAD THIS AND IT'S BEEN A GREAT SUCCESS AND PEOPLE LOVE IT. AND THE NEXT ONE, OUR EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS CLASS THAT CONTINUES TO GO, THAT ONE IS NOT SOLD OUT. THAT IS NOT THE LAST ONE. WE STILL CONTINUE TO DO THOSE ONCE A MONTH. SO WE INVITE YOU TO COME AND JOIN US THERE AND BE MORE PREPARED.

DUMPSTER DAYS. OUR NEXT DUMPSTER DAY IS GOING TO BE SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24TH, AND I'M FORECASTING GOOD WEATHER. THAT WILL BE OUR FINAL ONE OF THE YEAR AS WELL, BUT IT IS SOLD OUT. YOU CAN STILL COME. SO BRING YOUR DONATIONS OF GARBAGE AND WE'LL BE HAPPY TO TAKE IT OFF YOUR HANDS. AND THEN WE HAVE HAD SOME CONCERNS ABOUT THE USE OF THE RAILROAD PARK WITH SOME PEOPLE HAVE CONTACTED US. SO I AM PUTTING THIS COMMUNITY MEETING TOGETHER WHERE WE CAN MEET WITH THE COMMUNITY AND SEE IF THERE'S SOME WAYS THAT WE CAN WORK WITH THE FOOTBALL LEAGUE AND THE RESIDENTS TO MAKE THIS PARK FUNCTION APPROPRIATELY, THAT EVERYBODY CAN BE HAPPY AND WORK TOGETHER AND GET SOME GOOD USE OUT OF OUR PARK WHILE PRESERVING IT IN A WAY THAT LOCAL RESIDENTS CAN ALSO ENJOY IT AND USE IT. SO YOU'RE WELCOME TO JOIN US ON THAT'LL BE THIS FRIDAY. AND WE MOVED IT TO FRIDAY. WELL, WE SET UP FOR FRIDAY A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO BECAUSE WE KNEW THE WEATHER WOULD BE BETTER THEN, AND THE FORECAST IS LOOKING REALLY GOOD FOR IT. SO THAT IS MY REPORT. UNLESS YOU HAVE SOME ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FOR ME. GREAT QUESTION. HOW ARE HOW ARE YOU ALERTING THAT NEIGHBORHOOD? WE A COUPLE OF RESIDENTS, WE LET THEM KNOW BY EMAIL AND THEN WE PASS FLIERS AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD. PERFECT. THANK YOU. YOU'RE WELCOME. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. WE'LL NOW HEAR FROM

[c. City Administrator’s Report]

IT'S BEEN A GOOD YEAR. WE'VE GOT A LOT DONE AROUND THE COMMUNITY TONIGHT. I'D LIKE YOU TO HEAR SEPARATELY FROM COREY. HE'S GOING TO GIVE YOU SOME UPDATES ON THE SENIOR CENTER, AND THEN I'D LIKE TO TURN THE TIME OVER TO GREG, IF I MAY, TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ABOUT AN IMPORTANT CONSTRUCTION PROJECT NEAR 7800 SOUTH AND BANGERTER HIGHWAY. GOOD EVENING. COUNCIL.

YEAH. I JUST WANT TO SHARE A COUPLE OF UPDATES ABOUT OUR SENIOR CENTER HERE IN WEST JORDAN. ONE OF THE LINE ITEMS THAT YOU ALL HAVE APPROVED THIS YEAR IS FOR SOME UPGRADES, MAINTENANCE REPAIRS THERE AT THE SENIOR CENTER. A FEW SUCH ITEMS AS UPDATING TO LED LIGHTING. WE'RE STILL WITH THE OLD FLUORESCENT LIGHTING, REPLACING SOME OF THE ORIGINAL CARPETS, REDOING THE WOOD WOOD FLOOR SURFACING, AND SOME MINOR REMODEL TO THE LOBBY AREA TO EXPAND THEIR DESK TO SO THAT THEY CAN SERVE MORE PEOPLE AT THE SENIOR CENTER. AND AS WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH THE AGING SERVICES DIVISION THERE, WE'VE DETERMINED IT'D BE EASIEST IF WE KIND OF LIKE WE DID WITH THE SECOND COURTROOM REMODEL, WE'RE GOING TO ACT AS THE GENERAL CONTRACTORS, AND THEN OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS, JUST DO ONE OF THESE LITTLE PROJECTS AT A TIME. THIS ALLOWS THEM TO BE ABLE TO KEEP THE SENIOR CENTER OPEN AND WORK AROUND EACH LITTLE PROJECT, RATHER THAN JUST SHUTTING IT DOWN AND DOING A BUNCH OF PROJECTS AT ONCE. SO IT ALSO HELPS US TO SAVE A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY BY MANAGING THE PROJECTS OURSELVES. THE OTHER UPDATE WITH THE SENIOR CENTER SINCE FROM WHAT I AM AWARE, SINCE WE TOOK OVER, SINCE THE CENTER SENIOR CENTER WAS BUILT, WE HAVE FUNDED AND PAID SALT LAKE COUNTY TO THEN

[00:40:01]

SO WE WORKED WITH THE AGING SERVICES DIVISION AGAIN, AND WE HAVE NOW HIRED OUR OWN STAFF MEMBER OUT THERE WHO ALSO NOT ONLY WILL CLEAN THE SENIOR CENTER, BUT THEY'RE ALSO PRIMARILY RESPONSIBLE FOR CLEANING THE ARTS BUILDING RIGHT THERE. SO RATHER THAN JUST PAYING THE COUNTY FOR HELPING TO CLEAN ONE BUILDING, WE'RE NOW PAYING THAT SAME AMOUNT TO CLEAN TWO, AND WE HAVE BETTER CONTROL OVER THAT POSITION. SO IT'LL ALLOW US TO DO, I THINK, A LOT MORE SERVICES OVER THERE AND A LITTLE MORE EXPERTISE. SO ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PROJECTS OR. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. TO TOMORROW NIGHT AT MIDNIGHT, KINCAID CONSTRUCTION WILL BEGIN PUTTING UP TRAFFIC CONTROL IN 7800 SOUTH FROM BANGOR HIGHWAY. ON BOTH SIDES, I IMAGINE FOR ABOUT 4 OR 500FT AWAY FROM BANGOR HIGHWAY, BOTH EAST AND WEST, AS THEY START THE 7800 SOUTH SEWER REHABILITATION PROJECT. FOR THOSE OF YOU UNFAMILIAR WITH THAT, WE HAVE AN EXISTING 36 INCH LINE IN 7800 SOUTH AND A COUPLE MANHOLES THAT HAVE BEEN ATTACKED BY H2S GAS AND ARE BREAKING DOWN. AND SO IN ORDER TO AVOID A DRAMATIC FAILURE, WE'RE REPLACING THOSE MANHOLES AND REALIGNING SOME OF THE PIPES SO THEY DON'T CREATE THE GAS. THE CONTRACTOR HAS PROMISED TO DO THIS PROJECT IN ABOUT SIX WEEKS. SO THEY'LL BEGIN TOMORROW NIGHT AND THEY'LL FINISH BEFORE THANKSGIVING TO GET THAT SCHEDULE IN PLACE. WE'VE ASKED UDOT IF WE CAN CLOSE THE EASTBOUND ENTRANCE ONTO BANGOR HIGHWAY ON 78TH. FOR THOSE TRYING TO GO TO 90TH SOUTH, AND THAT IS GOING TO BE A CLOSE FOR APPROXIMATELY TEN DAYS, MAYBE A LITTLE BIT LONGER. WE'LL SEE HOW WORK GOES WHEN THAT ESCROWS CLOSED, BECAUSE IT'S SUCH A BIG IMPACT TO THE RESIDENTS OF WEST JORDAN. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THAT CONTRACT WORK 24 OVER SEVEN. THAT WAS A ALSO A REQUEST BY UDOT SO THAT WE CAN MINIMIZE THE DOWNTIME TO THAT CLOSURE. THE AGAIN, WE'VE TRIED TO ALERT ALL THE NEIGHBORS WITH FLIERS, AND WE PUT UP SIGNBOARDS TO LET PEOPLE KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. AND WE'LL HAVE ENGINEERS AND INSPECTORS OUT THERE AS WELL DURING THAT WORK.

ONCE THEY COMPLETE THE CLOSURE, THEY'LL GO BACK TO JUST DAYTIME WORK. TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT OF AN IDEA OF WHAT THE TRAFFIC CONTROL WILL BE LIKE. THEY'LL BE SHIFTING TRAFFIC OVER.

THAT'S GOING EASTBOUND A FEW LANES. AND SO AND THEY'LL BE CLOSING ONE OF THE LANES. SO THEY'LL ONLY BE TWO EASTBOUND LANES WEST OF BANGOR. THERE WILL BE IN PLACE, THEY'LL BE MOVING, AND THEY'LL BE TAKING AWAY ONE OF THE MIDDLE LANES. IF YOU REMEMBER, THERE ARE TWO TURN LANES TO GET ONTO BANGOR GOING TO 70TH, AND THEN THE OTHER ONE'S GOING TO THE SOUTH.

THEY'LL BE CHANGING THAT TO JUST ONE. THEY'LL ALSO BE CHANGING THE SIGNAL. HEAD UP THERE. SO NOW IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THERE'S A LEFT TURN ANGLE OR LEFT TURN LIGHT. IT'S JUST A THROUGH LIGHT. AND THEY'LL PUT ALL THAT BACK TO THE WAY IT WAS AFTER CONSTRUCTION IS OVER. DO YOU GUYS HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME ABOUT THAT PROJECT? MAYOR BURTON? I'M GOING TO BRAG ABOUT GREG FOR JUST A MINUTE. WHEN GREG FIRST, IN ORDER TO DO ALL THIS, YOU HAVE TO COORDINATE IT TO UDOT BECAUSE UDOT ROAD. SO GREG ASKED FOR THIS PERMISSION TO DO THIS AND AND HAVE THE LANE CLOSURE LIKE THIS. AND UDOT TURNED HIM DOWN. THEY SAID, WE DON'T WANT TO CLOSE FOR 24 HOURS A DAY. SO THEY SAID, YOU CAN ONLY DO NIGHT WORK THERE. AND IT WOULD STRETCH THAT NIGHT, WORK OUT TO BE OVER A MONTH BECAUSE THEY'D HAVE TO SET UP AND TAKE DOWN EVERY TIME, WHICH MEANS ALL THOSE RESIDENTS WOULD BE HAVING IT FOR A MONTH. ALL THAT NOISE OF THAT WORK HAPPENING RIGHT OUTSIDE THEIR WINDOWS. AND GREG WENT BACK TO UDOT AND DIDN'T ACCEPT THAT AS THE ANSWER AND SAID, NO, THIS ISN'T GOING TO WORK. WE NEED TO HAVE THIS. AND HE PLEADED WITH THEM AND PUSHED IT THROUGH. SO NOW THOSE RESIDENTS MIGHT HAVE A 24 HOURS A DAY, BUT THEY ONLY HAVE ABOUT A WEEK OR TEN DAYS. AS YOU'RE SAYING, WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN AT NIGHT? AND THE REST WILL BE DURING THE DAY. SO I JUST WANT TO GIVE A KUDOS TO GREG FOR STANDING UP FOR THE RESIDENTS IN OUR COMMUNITY. JUST SO YOU KNOW TOO, I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY HOW LONG IT'S GOING TO TAKE. IF IT TAKES LESS TIME THAN WE'VE BUDGETED, THAT'LL BE GREAT. WE JUST WANTED TO BE CAREFUL WITH UDOT AND MAKE SURE WE COVERED OUR BASES WITH THAT. BUT AS SOON AS

[00:45:05]

[Public Comment]

IT'S GOING TO BE FROM 11:00 TO 1:00, AND WE ARE GOING TO HAVE ALL SORTS OF FUN CRAFTS AND ACTIVITIES, AND WE HOPE THAT PEOPLE COME AND JOIN US. IT IS GOING TO BE REALLY AWESOME. I'M ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT OUR PROGRAMS, BUT I THOUGHT I WOULD TELL YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SOME OF THE COOL RESOURCES PEOPLE MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT. OF COURSE, PEOPLE THINK ABOUT BOOKS WITH LIBRARIES, BUT WE ALSO HAVE KITS AND VARIOUS THINGS THAT PEOPLE CAN CHECK OUT THAT CAN BE REALLY USEFUL, AND SPECIFICALLY SOME REALLY AWESOME HEALTH RESOURCES. WE HAVE BLOOD PRESSURE TESTING EQUIPMENT THAT PEOPLE CAN CHECK OUT AND TAKE HOME AND USE FOR A WEEK, AND THEN BRING BACK. WE HAVE HAPPY LIGHTS, WHICH ARE FOR PEOPLE WHO WE ARE NOW MOVING INTO THE DARKER DAYS OF THE YEAR, AND PEOPLE WHO ARE AFFECTED BY SEASONAL AFFECTIVE DISORDER. THEY CAN BORROW ONE OF THESE HAPPY LIGHTS AND TEST IT OUT. IT'S LIKE THOSE LIGHT BOXES THAT PEOPLE WITH SAD CAN USE, AND SOME FIND IT VERY EFFECTIVE. AND SO PEOPLE CAN BORROW OURS, USE IT AND SEE IF IT IS EFFECTIVE FOR THEM BEFORE THEY GO SPEND A BUNCH OF MONEY TO GET THEIR OWN. SO IT'S A REALLY GREAT RESOURCE. WE ALSO HAVE RADON MONITORS THAT PEOPLE CAN TAKE AND BRING INTO THEIR HOME, AND KIND OF DO THEIR OWN TESTING AND SEE IF MAYBE THEY WANT TO DO A MORE THOROUGH LOOK INTO WHETHER THEIR HOME NEEDS THAT TO BE DEALT WITH. WE ALSO HAVE SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN ACCESS ON YOUR COMPUTERS THROUGH OUR WEBSITE WITH YOUR LIBRARY CARD, MEDLINEPLUS, WHICH CAN BE GREAT FOR RESEARCH. WE ALL FALL BACK ON DOCTOR GOOGLE, BUT THIS IS A LITTLE BIT MORE VETTED. SO THAT'S GREAT. AND THEN FOR TO END ON A SLIGHTLY LIGHTER NOTE, WE DO HAVE A DATABASE CALLED CREATIVEBUG WHICH HAS A BUNCH OF AWESOME CLASSES FOR VARIOUS ART AND CREATIVE RELATED ENDEAVORS SEWING, QUILTING, PAINTING, DYEING, FIBER OR YARN AND STUFF. VERY AWESOME. IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE, STOP BY THE BINGHAM CREEK LIBRARY. WE'RE HAPPY TO HELP YOU OUT AND THANK YOU SO MUCH. LIKE I SAID, SO GLAD TO BE PART OF THE WEST JORDAN COMMUNITY. IT'S A GREAT PLACE TO BE. THANK YOU, ANN MARIE, IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO COME UP FOR PUBLIC COMMENT? AND I FORGOT, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME FIRST AND LAST NAME AND CITY RESIDENTS, PLEASE. I'M TRACY CROCKETT, I LIVE IN BLUFFDALE AND I AM A CANDIDATE, A REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR SALT LAKE COUNTY COUNCIL, DISTRICT FIVE. AND THAT COVERS SIX CITIES. SO ALL OF RIVERTON, ALL

[00:50:04]

I'VE HAD A CHANCE TO MEET WITH SEVERAL OF YOU AND HAVE YOUR SUPPORT AND APPRECIATE THAT AND THOSE WHO I HAVE, AND I LOOK FORWARD TO BEING ABLE TO GET TO KNOW YOU. I CAME ON A REALLY GREAT NIGHT. I, I AM REALLY EXCITED TO SEE TEAMWORK AND COMMUNITY AND FOR IT TO BE CELEBRATED. I THINK SO OFTEN, MANY THINGS THAT WE DO IN PUBLIC SERVICE, WE, WE SEE A LOT OF THE PROBLEMS AND ISSUES WE'RE TRYING TO SOLVE. AND SO ANYTIME WE CAN CELEBRATE THE GOOD, IT'S I LOVE IT. IT'S IT'S AMAZING. SO THANK YOU FOR, FOR DOING THAT. AND, AND I'M GRATEFUL THAT I WAS ABLE TO BE HERE. ALSO ANOTHER SHOUT OUT TO WEST JORDAN. I'M VERY IMPRESSED.

I'VE SEEN ON SOCIAL MEDIA THESE ISSUES THAT PEOPLE TALK ABOUT AND YOU GUYS HAVE ALREADY, YOU'RE ALREADY ARRANGING MEETINGS AND, AND GETTING OUT THERE. SO I CAN REALLY SEE ALL OF YOUR LOVE FOR YOUR COMMUNITY. AND I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. I SERVED TWO TERMS ON BLUFFDALE CITY COUNCIL, SO I REALLY HAVE AN APPRECIATION FOR COMMUNITIES.

AND I JUST WANT TO REITERATE THAT WORKING TOGETHER IS SO IMPORTANT TO ME, AND BEING ABLE TO WORK TOGETHER WITH WEST JORDAN CITY IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO ME. SO PLEASE STAY IN CONTACT, INVITE ME TO THINGS I WANT TO BE HERE. I WANT TO BE YOUR CONTACT. I DON'T REPRESENT ALL OF WEST JORDAN, AND I CAN'T EVEN REALLY SAY WHICH AREAS ARE IT AND NOT BECAUSE THE BOUNDARIES ARE SO COMPLICATED IN WEST JORDAN. SO TO ME, WEST JORDAN'S WEST JORDAN IS ALL ONE CITY. IF I'M YOUR REPRESENTATIVE OR NOT, I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU AND WORK WITH YOU TO MAKE OUR COMMUNITIES BETTER, EVEN IF IT MEANS LIKE ON YOUR SENIOR SENIOR CENTER, IT'S LESS COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT WITH OR WITH LESS COUNTY INVOLVEMENT TO MAKE YOUR COMMUNITY BETTER. YOU KNOW, LET'S, LET'S WORK TOGETHER TO, TO CREATE GREAT COMMUNITY. SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE IN THE AUDIENCE WHO WOULD LIKE TO COME UP FOR PUBLIC COMMENT? SORRY, MR. ANDERSON, IS THERE ANYONE ONLINE? THERE'S ONE INDIVIDUAL ONLINE AND THEY HAVE NOT RAISED THEIR HAND TO SPEAK AT THIS TIME. OKAY, OKAY.

SEEING THERE IS NO ONE ELSE WHO WOULD WISH TO SPEAK, I WILL CLOSE PUBLIC COMMENT. WE WILL

[a. Ordinance No. 26-47 a Petition to Amend the Future Land Use Map to Medium Density Residential and Community Commercial and Rezone 14.07 Acres to R-3-8 (Multiple-Family Dwelling, 8 or less units/acre) and SC-2 (Community Shopping Center) for Highlands Landing North at Approximately 7592 South 5490 West]

[00:55:04]

ESSENTIALLY WHAT THIS IS, IS THESE USED TO BE THESE USED TO ALL BE FIVE ACRE PARCELS RUNNING EAST AND WEST. AND SO THAT VERY BOTTOM PARCEL THAT YOU SEE THERE THAT'S ZONED COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL. WE ACQUIRED THAT A LITTLE BIT AGO, BUT THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD REZONED THAT TO COMMERCIAL USE. WE FEEL THAT THE COMMERCIAL IS BEST SERVED ALONG A MAJOR ROAD 5600 WEST. SO WE PUSH THAT, AS YOU'LL SEE IN THE CONCEPT. AND AS YOU'VE SEEN BEFORE, ALONG 5600 WEST NEAR THE ROUNDABOUT. IT'S A BETTER COMMERCIAL SITE AND IT'LL TRACK SOME BETTER COMMERCIAL USES THERE, PARKS AND OPEN LAND THAT WAS IN THE MASTER PLAN. AND IMMEDIATELY ACROSS THE ROAD, 5600 WEST. IN BETWEEN THAT AND NIELSEN'S FROZEN CUSTARD. IT'S A PLUG FOR NIELSEN, SO GO GET SOME AFTER THIS MEETING. TONIGHT IS A STORM DRAIN COMMUNITY PARK AND A TOT LOT THERE. SO WE FEEL LIKE THE PARKS AND OPEN SPACE ARE VERY REPRESENTED IN THIS AREA. AND WE'RE JUST TRYING TO BUILD SOME HOUSES FOR OUR NEIGHBORS. SO THIS IS THE THE EXISTING VERSUS THE PROPOSED. YOU SEE THE MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO THE WEST AND TO THE NORTH OF THE PROPERTY AND THE COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL TO THE, EXCUSE ME, THE MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO THE EAST AND NORTH AND THE COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL TO THE WEST AND THE SOUTH. SO HOW THIS LOOKS. LET'S GET TO THE MEAT OF WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE. THIS IS THE CONCEPT PLAN. SO WHAT YOU SEE IS TWO APPROXIMATELY ONE ACRE COMMERCIAL PADS AND THEN 67 SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES. NOW. I WANTED TO ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE BOWLER FAMILY, THE BOWLER FAMILY IS A HAVE BEEN MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY FOR A LONG TIME AND THEY OWN AND RUN THE UTAH NATURAL MEATS, WHICH IS ADJACENT TO THE NORTH OF THIS PROPERTY. THIS IS AN ACTIVE AGRICULTURAL PROPERTY AND I MET THEM OUT ON THEIR FARM AND I HAD A CHANCE TO TALK TO THEM THE DAY I MET THE. I CAME ONE TIME AND I WAS SUPER IMPRESSED WITH HOW BUSY THEIR STORE WAS. I MEAN, IT WAS CRANKING. SO I CAME BACK A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER WHEN IT WAS. IT WAS A BETTER TIME AND WE DISCUSSED KIND OF OUR PROJECT AND HOW IT WOULD HAVE, HOW WHAT WE WERE PROPOSING. SO AT THAT MEETING, I WALKED AWAY FROM THAT MEETING WITH THREE ITEMS THAT I COMMITTED TO TAKING BACK TO OUR TEAM. THEY ARE CONCERNED THAT NEIGHBORS ARE GOING TO BE UPSET ABOUT THE SMELLS OF AN AGRICULTURAL OPERATION NEXT DOOR. AND I GREW UP IN SOUTHERN UTAH, AND SO I. I DON'T FIND THAT A DETERRENT. I FIND THAT A BLESSING. I DON'T I GUESS THAT SOME PEOPLE DON'T LIKE THAT, BUT HECK, I'M NOT ONE OF THEM. BUT THEY ARE VERY CONCERNED THAT NEIGHBORS ARE GOING TO MOVE IN AND THEY ARE NOT GOING TO SEE A BIG FARM RIGHT BEHIND THEM. SO WHAT WE HAVE COMMITTED TO THE BOWLERS TO DOING IS, INCLUDING IN THE CASA, DISCLOSURE THAT THERE'S AN ACTIVE AGRICULTURAL OPERATION NEXT DOOR AND WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THAT. ODORS, INSECTS, ANIMALS, EQUIPMENT, DUST AND SIMILAR IMPACTS. AND WE'RE ALSO WILLING TO HAVE SEPARATE DISCLOSURE TOGETHER WITH THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT. SO EVERY BUYER RECEIVES AN ACKNOWLEDGES INFORMATION BEFORE PURCHASING THE PROPERTY. SO WE THINK THIS IS A A WAY TO PROTECT THE FARM'S ABILITY TO CONDUCT LAWFUL NORMAL AGRICULTURAL OPERATIONS WHILE ENSURING THAT FUTURE HOMEOWNERS KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THEY'RE BUYING NEXT TO. AT THE SAME TIME, THE DISCLOSURE IS NOT GOING TO EXPAND THE FARM'S LEGAL RIGHTS OR LIMIT THE HOMEOWNERS FUTURE PROTECTIONS THAT THEY WOULD HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. SO, I MEAN, IT'S JUST GOING TO BE A DISCLOSURE. HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT? YOU'RE GETTING THE SECOND ITEM WE COMMITTED TO DO WITH THE BOWLERS IS BECAUSE THE ZONING IS DIFFERENT OR WILL BE DIFFERENT AFTER THIS REZONE FROM AGRICULTURAL USE TO A RESIDENTIAL USE, A SIX FOOT PRECAST MASONRY FENCE IS REQUIRED AS THAT IS CITY ORDINANCE. AND SO WHAT WE HAVE PROPOSED TO THE BOWLERS IS THAT PETERSON WOULD PICK UP THE COSTS OF THAT SIX FOOT FENCE. THEY WOULD LIKE AN EIGHT FOOT FENCE. AND SO WE WOULD BE WILLING TO SPLIT THE INCREMENTAL COST OF THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SIX AND

[01:00:05]

AND I KNOW THAT THEY HAVE A REPUTATION IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD OF BEING GREAT NEIGHBORS. SO ONCE AGAIN, SOME SOME OTHER FACTS ABOUT THIS, THOSE DRIVEWAYS. KAITLYN 22FT. YOU'LL BE HAPPY ABOUT THAT. THIS THERE WILL BE AN HOA. THE HOA IS IS REQUIRED BECAUSE THERE'S A DETENTION POND AND THAT WILL NEED TO BE MAINTAINED. SO THERE WILL BE AN HOA ON THIS. THE REST OF THE STREETS ARE PUBLIC. WE. LET'S SEE. YEAH. SO YEAH, GOING BACK TO THE R THREE EIGHT ARGUMENT, THE REASON THIS ZONING TO US AS A DEVELOPER, YOU CALL IT R1AR38. IT DOESN'T MATTER. WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS WE'RE TRYING TO CREATE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES THAT PEOPLE CAN BUY. NOW YOU MAY SAY, HEY, IF I REZONE THIS R THREE EIGHT, YOU'RE GOING TO PULL THE WOOL OVER MY EYES AND YOU'RE GOING TO SAY YOU'RE GOING TO THROW IN MULTIFAMILY. WE ALREADY THOUGHT OF THAT AND IT'S NOT GOING TO WORK. Y'ALL HAVE A BALANCED HOUSING ORDINANCE THAT DOESN'T ALLOW US TO DO THAT PRIMARILY. AND IN WORKING WITH DUNCAN THAT WE ARE MAC OR WE, THE ORDINANCE CAPS US AT THAT 67 UNITS. FURTHERMORE, AS I EXPLAINED IN THE COMMITTEE, THE WHOLE MEETING, THIS RING ROAD HAS A LOT OF DIFFERENT PRODUCT IN IT. WE'VE TRIED TO BE COGNIZANT AND YOU PUT DIFFERENT PRODUCTS AT DIFFERENT PLACES. FOR SALE. TOWNHOMES ARE, WE THINK ARE FIT OR A BETTER FIT AT A DIFFERENT LOCATION IN THAT RING ROAD. AND SO THIS IS A BETTER FIT FOR SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE. SO WITH THAT. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME OR IF YOU PREFER AFTER PUBLIC COMMENT, I CAN ANSWER ANYTHING. I'D LOVE TO ADDRESS ANY CONCERNS YOU MIGHT HAVE NOW AND THEN, OR IF YOU TURN IT OVER TO STAFF. I DON'T KNOW HOW Y'ALL WANT TO DO THIS. WE CAN TURN IT OVER TO STAFF. AND THEN IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS AFTER THAT, THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL. I THINK THE APPLICANT HAS KIND OF GONE THROUGH A NUMBER OF THINGS THAT I WAS GOING TO GO OVER IN A PRESENTATION, BUT JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS. ONE OF THE THINGS I'LL JUST LIKE TO FOCUS ON IS JUST TO STEP BACK OUT JUST A LITTLE BIT AND JUST KIND OF LOOK AT THIS HOLISTICALLY AND WHAT THE ADJOINING USES ARE.

THE SURROUNDING USES ARE IN THE AREA. AGAIN, TO THE NORTH IS A FARM, BUT IT'S DESIGNATED ON THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP AS VERY LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL. SO EVEN THOUGH IT'S ZONED AGRICULTURAL. SO EVEN THOUGH IT'S FARM NOW, AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE, IT MAY DEVELOP AS SOMETHING ELSE AND LIKELY IT WILL BE RESIDENTIAL. SO. WE THINK THAT AND GIVEN THAT IT'S VERY LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL, WE THINK THAT THE DENSITIES THAT ARE IN THIS DEVELOPMENT

[01:05:02]

WE ALSO THINK THAT THIS WOULD BE A GOOD TRANSITION IN DENSITY BETWEEN THOSE LOWER DENSITY DEVELOPMENTS OR SUBDIVISIONS ON THE THE THE EAST OF THE PROJECT, TO THE WEST TOWARDS THE FOR THE, THE COMMERCIAL. WE DO LIKE THE CONCEPT OF REORIENTING THE COMMERCIAL TO FRONT ONTO 5600 WEST. IT JUST MAKES BETTER SENSE THERE. JUST GIVEN THE THE SUBDIVISION THAT WAS APPROVED TO THE SOUTH, WE REALLY DON'T THINK ANY COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT WOULD OCCUR ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE. THE NORTH SIDE OF HIGHLANDS LOOP ROAD ON THE EAST SIDE. SO WE THINK IT'S A GOOD MOVE TO SHIFT THAT COMMERCIAL OVER TO THAT SIDE. THIS WE HAVE THERE'S LANGUAGE IN THE ORDINANCE THAT REQUIRES THAT THIS DEVELOP SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR TO WHAT'S SHOWN IN THE CONCEPT PLAN. IT WOULD BE ZONED EVEN THOUGH IT BE ZONED R THREE EIGHT. IT WOULD STILL HAVE TO COMPLY WITH THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL SETBACK STANDARDS FOR SINGLE FAMILY DWELLINGS IN THAT ZONE. SO YOU'D BE LOOKING AT A 25 FOOT FOR YARD SETBACK, 8 FOOT OR 5 FOOT AND EIGHT FOOT.

I CAN'T REMEMBER OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD WHAT IT IS FOR THE SIDE YARD, BUT 20 FOOT REAR YARD FOR EACH OF THOSE UNITS. SO ALL IN ALL, WE FEEL LIKE THAT IT DOES PROVIDE A GOOD TRANSITION FROM BOTH DIRECTIONS, AND OUR RECOMMENDATION WOULD BE FOR APPROVAL. THIS DID GO TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION. SEPTEMBER, SORRY TO INTERRUPT YOU. DO YOU MIND SPEAKING LOUDER THERE? WE'RE GETTING PEOPLE SAYING THEY CAN'T HEAR YOU. THANK YOU. IT'S THE TIE. SO WE THIS DID GO TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION IN SEPTEMBER, AND THEY DID RECOMMEND THAT APPROVAL OF BOTH THE REZONING AND FUTURE LAND USE MAP AMENDMENT AS REQUESTED BY THE APPLICANT. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB, WHAT'S THE MINIMUM LOT SIZE ON THIS IN THE. FOR A SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING IN THE R THREE EIGHT ZONE IS 4000 4000FT■!S. AD DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE SMALLEST OR WHAT THE AVERAGE LOT SIZE IS ON THE PLAN THAT WASN'T SHOWN ON THE PLAN, WE'D BE MAKING SURE THAT IT FIT THAT WHEN THE THROUGH THE SUBDIVISION PROCESS. OKAY. IN YOUR OPINION, WHY WOULD AN R THREE EIGHT BE BETTER THAN AN R ONE FIVE OTHER THAN THAT EXTRA THOUSAND SQUARE FEET PER LOT? YOU KNOW, I LOOKED AT THAT JUST BEFORE THIS MEETING. AND REALLY THE ONLY THERE'S ONLY TWO DIFFERENCES. THE DIFFERENCE WOULD BE A LARGER LOT. SO YOU'D MEAN THAT R5SR15 ZONE 5000FT■!S RATHER THN FOUR. AND THEN IT WOULD ALSO BE THE THE FRONTAGE REQUIREMENT IS LIKE FIVE FEET WIDER. OKAY. OKAY. THAT'S THAT'S GOOD INFORMATION. THE OTHER QUESTION I HAD IS IF IF THIS REZONE IS APPROVED, BUT SOMETHING HAPPENS WITH THE DEVELOPER BETWEEN THE REZONE AND THE SUBDIVISION PLAT OR THE REZONE AND THE SITE PLANS THOSE NEXT STEPS. AND IT JUST SITS WITH THIS NEW REZONE. WHAT WOULD STOP SOMEBODY FROM COMING IN AND PROPOSING DUPLEXES OR TOWNHOMES? THAT WOULD BE ALREADY ZONED APPROPRIATELY FOR THOSE USES, RIGHT? WHAT WHAT WOULD WHAT'S THE BACKSTOP THERE THAT THE CITY WOULD HAVE TO SAY? SORRY, YOU CAN'T DO THAT WHEN THAT'S A PERMITTED USE IN THE ZONE THAT WE ARE GRANTED. YEAH, CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, DUNCAN, OR I JUST WANT TO ADDRESS IT. I THINK THAT EITHER STAFF IS.

YEAH. SO WE'VE REFERRED TO SOME OF THESE ALREADY, BUT A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT STOPGAPS, ONE STOP GAP OR PROTECTION, SO TO SPEAK, IS THE BALANCED HOUSING ORDINANCE FOR MULTIFAMILY.

[01:10:02]

THERE'S ONE PROVISION THAT SAYS THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF UNITS IS 67. THERE'S ALSO AT THE BEGINNING, ONE OF THE FIRST TWO SECTIONS, I THINK IS SECTION ONE. THERE'S A REVERSION CLAUSE WHICH SAYS THAT IF IT. THE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE FORWARD WITHIN THREE YEARS WITH THE ADOPTION OF A FINAL SUBDIVISION PLAT, THEN IT REVERTS BACK TO THE CURRENT ZONING, PRIOR ZONING.

ALSO, THERE'S A PROVISION IN THERE THAT SAYS IN THE ZONE CHANGE ORDINANCE THAT SAYS THAT THE DEVELOPMENT HAS TO HAPPEN SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR TO THIS CONCEPT PLAN. AND SO DUPLEXES AND SO FORTH WOULDN'T WORK. PLUS, LIKE I SAY, THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF UNITS IS 67. OKAY.

ABOUT THE SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR TO THE CONCEPT PLAN PART, CAN WE DO THAT ON A EUCLIDEAN ZONE? YES. IN THE ORDINANCE, BECAUSE WE CAN. I THOUGHT WE COULD ONLY DO THAT WITH LIKE PLANNED COMMUNITY AND PRD TYPE ZONES. WELL, WE CAN WE CAN DO THAT WITH WITH THIS, THE. AND OBVIOUSLY THERE'S NO DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE, RIGHT. BUT WE CAN DO A SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR WITH THE CONCEPT PLAN. THAT'S WHAT WE'VE DONE HERE. WE ALWAYS ATTACH THE LEGAL DESCRIPTION FOR THE PROPERTY THAT'S BEING CHANGED ON THE MAP AMENDMENT.

AND THEN WE ARE ALSO ENTITLED TO DO A CONCEPT PLAN. NOW THERE'S NO PARTICULAR EXACT DEFINITION FOR SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR IN THE CODE, NOR IS THERE A THE ZONE CHANGE ORDINANCE. YOU'D BE TRUSTING STAFF TO FOLLOW THE CONCEPT PLAN THAT'S ATTACHED TO THE ZONE CHANGE ORDINANCE. BUT I FEEL WITH ALL OF THOSE DIFFERENT REASSURANCES OR PROTECTIONS COMBINED, THE THE FACT PATTERN THAT YOU DESCRIBED IS NOT POSSIBLE. THERE'S NO WAY A DEVELOPER IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO DO DUPLEXES AND MAKE ALL THE CHANGES THAT YOU DESCRIBED UNDER WHAT'S IN EFFECT HERE. IF YOU PASS IT THE WAY THAT IT'S PUT BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, COUNCIL MEMBER LAM. SO MY QUESTION WAS KIND OF IN THE SAME REALM. WHAT DOES AN R THREE EIGHT ACCOMPLISH AS OPPOSED TO AN R ONE EIGHT. OBVIOUSLY WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, THEY CAN BUILD, YOU KNOW DIFFERENT THINGS WITH THE R THREE EIGHT.

LOOKING AT THIS CONCEPT, I KNOW WE DON'T HAVE THE NUMBERS OF THE LOTS. BUT DOES THIS CONCEPT FROM THIS PICTURE, DOES IT FIT IN R ONE EIGHT OR DOES IT NOT. NO I WOULD NOT THINK SO. OKAY.

MY GUESS IS THEY'RE PROBABLY PRETTY CLOSE TO FOUR THAT THAT 4000 FOOT MINIMUM. SO LOOKING AT THIS THIS IS PROBABLY CLOSE TO MORE IN R ONE FIVE. IT'D BE CLOSER TO. YEAH. OKAY. COUNCIL OR EXCUSE ME VICE CHAIR SHELTON I WANTED TO ASK ABOUT THE TIMING OF THE INSTALLATION OF THE WELL OR THE, THE EXTENSION GOING EAST OF HIGHLANDS LOOP ROAD. DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT? WE KNOW THAT. IT'S THAT IT'S ON THE RADAR BECAUSE IT'S MASTER PLAN STREET. BUT AS TO THE TIMING ON IT, WE DON'T KNOW AT THIS POINT. AS A PLANNER, CAN YOU GIVE US YOUR OPINION ON ON WHEN THAT TIMING WOULD BE BEST? IT IT NOT NOT AS IN THE PLANNING REALM, IT WOULD BE MORE LIKE A TRAFFIC ENGINEER KIND OF THING TO LOOK AT. TRAFFIC COUNTS, THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. BUT I COULDN'T GUESS. OKAY, I'M JUST WONDERING, SPEAKING TO THE COUNCIL IF IT WOULD BE A GOOD THING TO. EXPEDITE THE EXTENSION OF THAT ROAD TO THE EAST IN, IN THE FACE OF, OF THIS PROJECT COMING TO INTO THE CITY. YES. CAN I JUST ASK A CLARIFYING QUESTION ABOUT THAT? YES. DO YOU DO YOU MEAN THROUGH EAST OF 5490, LIKE THROUGH INTO THE BRIDAL CREEK NEIGHBORHOOD. OKAY. SO LIKE THIS PART OF HIGHLANDS IS ALREADY THERE. SO I WAS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. OKAY. THANKS. ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL? OKAY. DID YOU HAVE ANYTHING? COUNCIL MEMBER WHITELOCK, IS THERE A REASON THAT WE DID IT? LIKE TO ME, THE COMMERCIAL SMALLER THAN THE 45 ACRES. OKAY. BUT IS THERE A REASON THAT WE DIDN'T MAYBE SPLIT IT? WE JUST BARELY. MADE A DEVELOPER TO OUR TWELVES

[01:15:01]

LOTS AND LOTS ON THE IN THE IN THE CUL DE SAC. I DON'T KNOW IF I'M ANSWERING YOUR QUESTION, BUT BUT THEY ARE NARROWER, BUT THEY ARE DEEPER TOO. SO IT'S, YOU KNOW, IT'S KIND OF A TOSS UP. YOU'RE SEEING JUST OVER TIME, YOU'RE SEEING MORE AND MORE OF THESE SUBDIVISIONS, LIKE THROUGH COPPER RIM, THROUGH SOME OF THE LARGER PLANNED DEVELOPMENTS WHERE YOU HAVE NARROWER LOTS. IT'S BECOMING MORE COMMON. DID I ANSWER YOUR QUESTION? OKAY, OKAY. ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL? OKAY. THANK YOU. OKAY. I WILL NOW OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING ON ORDINANCE NUMBER 26-47. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO COME TO THE PODIUM AND SPEAK ABOUT THIS PUBLIC HEARING, PLEASE, PLEASE DO. OKAY. PLEASE STATE YOUR FIRST AND LAST NAME AND YOUR CITY RESIDENTS. MY NAME IS SHANE BOWLER. I LIVE IN WEST JORDAN AND I HAVE ALL OF MY LIFE. THANK YOU CHAIR AND COUNCIL FOR HEARING ME TODAY. I THINK THAT OF ALL MY CONCERNS, I WANT TO TRY AND MENTION THREE. THE FIRST BEING, I GUESS WHAT IS JUST A PERSONAL ANNOYANCE TO ME BECAUSE I AM THE FARM THAT IS SO FREQUENTLY REFERRED TO.

AND WHEN THAT REFERENCE IS MADE, IT USUALLY IS IN THE TONE OF, WELL, IT'S A FARM TODAY, BUT IT COULD BE DEVELOPED LATER ON AS THOUGH THIS HYPOTHETICAL FUTURE IDEA JUSTIFIES A PRESENT DAY DECISION. AND TO ME, THAT IS IRRESPONSIBLE. NOBODY EVER COMES HERE AND SAYS IT'S A FARM TODAY, AND MAYBE THE FARM WILL STAY A FARM FOREVER. NOBODY EVER USES THAT HYPOTHETICAL IDEA, SO I JUST WANT TO BRING IT BACK DOWN TO THE PRESENT. INSTEAD OF MAKING DECISIONS FROM A FUTURE UNKNOWN POSSIBILITY. MY SECOND ISSUE IS WITH THE ZONE AS A WHOLE. JUST BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE, AS COUNCIL MEMBER WHITELOCK ALREADY MENTIONED, THE ZONING IS A POOR TRANSITION FROM AN A ONE ZONE TO WHAT IS CURRENTLY BEING ASKED FOR. I WOULD FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE IF THERE WAS A LOWER DENSITY ZONE ON THE NORTH BOUNDARY LINE OF THE SUBDIVISION, AND THEN TRANSITIONING INTO SOMETHING HIGHER DENSITY AFTER THAT. I JUST DON'T FEEL LIKE IT'S A IT'S A VERY GOOD TRANSITION ZONE THERE. MY LAST ONE IS THAT OF THE THINGS THAT JEFF MENTIONED THAT WE HAVE DISCUSSED, NONE OF THOSE ARE IN ANY KIND OF DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT OR SOME EQUIVALENT AGREEMENT THAT SOLIDIFIES THOSE

[01:20:04]

THEY'RE NEXT TO HALF ACRE, THREE QUARTER ACRE, ONE ACRE LOTS. WE HAVE ALMOST AN ACRE.

MOST PEOPLE THE. LOOKING AT THE MAP ON THE EAST SIDE THERE AT LEAST HALF ACRE DON'T REALLY FIT. AND HONESTLY, I'M A BIG SUPPORTER OF THE OF THE FARM. AND WHILE THE DEVELOPER SAYS THAT THEY WILL PUT WHATEVER, I DON'T KNOW THE TERMS, BUT WHATEVER NOTICE THEY'LL PUT IN WHEN THEY'RE SELLING THESE HOMES SAYING, OH, YOU'RE GOING TO BE NEXT TO A FARM. THERE COULD BE SMELLS, ALL THIS STUFF. WE ALL KNOW THAT'S NOT ENOUGH. YOU KNOW, THEY'RE GOING TO SAY, OH, IT DOESN'T HAPPEN VERY OFTEN AND IT REALLY DOESN'T. BUT WHEN IT DOES HAPPEN, WHEN THEY'RE HAVING A PARTY, IT'S GOING TO CAUSE A PROBLEM. AND I THINK THAT WE SHOULD SUPPORT THE FARM AND PROTECT IT. IT'S PRETTY AWESOME. IF YOU GUYS HAVEN'T BEEN THERE, YOU SHOULD GO CHECK IT OUT. IT'S PRETTY COOL. ANYWAY, SO THAT'S THAT'S MY VOTE. LOWER DENSITY. THANKS.

THANK YOU. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO COME UP AND SPEAK? I PLEASE GIVE US YOUR FIRST AND LAST NAME AND CITY OF RESIDENCE. HI. JENNIFER SORENSEN, WEST JORDAN, MY WHOLE LIFE. OUR BACKYARD IS RIGHT ALONG THAT PRIVATE LANE. 5490. AND I JUST WANTED TO SAY, I ALMOST FEEL LIKE IT'S SALT IN THE WOUND THAT THE THE RENTAL HOME DEVELOPMENT THAT WAS PUSHED THROUGH WITH SHENANIGANS BECAUSE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SENIOR LIVING, AND NOW IT'S RENTAL HOMES THAT NOW THAT'S BEING USED TO SAY, WELL, GOOD. THIS IS A GOOD TRANSITION FROM THE RENTAL HOME NEIGHBORHOOD TO THESE BIG, NICE LOTS. IT'S IT'S SALT IN THE WOUND THAT THAT NOW THAT'S BEING USED AS THE STANDARD TO SAY THAT THIS IS OKAY TO MOVE FORWARD FOR FUTURE USE. NOW THAT THOSE RENTAL HOMES ARE IN, THERE'S BEEN AN INCREASE IN CRIME ALREADY.

THERE'S MULTIPLE HOMES THAT HAVE BEEN BROKEN INTO ALONG THAT ROAD. AND WE DON'T WE DON'T WANT TO PERPETUATE THAT. WE MOVED PERSONALLY, MY HUSBAND AND I, FROM A DIFFERENT PART OF WEST JORDAN THAT DID HAVE SMALL LOTS LIKE IT'S BEING PROPOSED NOW. AND THIS GENTLEMAN HERE,

[01:25:03]

PLEASE PROTECT US. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO COME UP AND SPEAK? HI. PLEASE GIVE US YOUR FIRST AND LAST NAME, JEREMY SORENSEN FROM WEST JORDAN AS WELL. MY WHOLE LIFE, THAT WAS MY WIFE THAT JUST SPOKE. WE HAVE LEARNED FROM SAD EXPERIENCE THAT THE DEVELOPER, ALTHOUGH IN POOR TASTE, HE TRIED JOKING ABOUT PUTTING HIS HIGH DENSITY AS POSSIBLE. THEY HAVE ACTUALLY DONE THAT AND IT HAS HAD A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON ALL OF US SURROUNDING NEIGHBORS. WE USED TO LIVE IN THE SAME NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE REPRESENTATIVE JACOB IS, AND THE REASON WE MOVED AND BUILT THE HOME WHERE WE'RE AT WAS TO AVOID THIS HIGH DENSITY AND OR MEDIUM DENSITY, AS IT'S BEEN BEING DETERMINED HERE. THE PROPER TRANSITION TRULY IS TO MOVE FROM LOW DENSITY TO VERY LOW DENSITY. AS YOU CAN SEE TO THE EAST, THERE'S THERE'S VERY LOW DENSITY THERE. AND IT WORKS FOR THOSE THAT WANT TO BE THERE.

AND THERE ARE OTHER PLACES IN THE CITY WHERE HIGH DENSITY MAKES SENSE, AND THAT'S WHERE IT SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE PRODUCED, BUT NOT RIGHT HERE, NOT IN THIS AREA WHERE THERE IS VERY LOW DENSITY AND LOW DENSITY IN IN ALL OF THE SURROUNDING AREA, INCLUDING TO THE WEST ACROSS 5600 WHERE THE IVORY DEVELOPMENT TOOK PLACE. AND IT'S A BEAUTIFUL NEIGHBORHOOD. THAT SHOULD BE WHAT WOULD BE ACCEPTABLE TO ALL OF US. AND I WOULD CERTAINLY BE A PROPONENT OF THAT. WELL, MY WIFE DID NOT MENTION IN THE INCREASE IN CRIME, WE ARE WE ARE EXTREMELY GRATEFUL FOR THE FIRST RESPONDERS AND THE POLICE. WE HAD A BREAK IN IN OUR HOME ON SUNDAY BECAUSE OF RESIDENTS IN THIS HIGH DENSITY THAT WAS DEVELOPED JUST SOUTH OF HERE, THAT THE DEVELOPER CHOSE TO. SHENANIGANS WAS HER WORD, BUT SHE CHOSE TO USE SHENANIGANS TO BE ABLE TO CHANGE THE ZONING ON THAT. AND IT'S JUST NOT ACCEPTABLE. WE WE EXPECT BETTER.

AND WE ARE GRATEFUL FOR THE POLICE THAT RESPONDED TO A BREAKING IN OUR HOME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY AND AGAIN ON MONDAY WHEN THEY CHOSE TO COME BACK AGAIN. AND THEY'VE IMPACTED EVERYBODY AROUND THE SURROUNDING AREA THERE BECAUSE IT'S HIGH DENSITY. IT'S THIS IS WHAT PEOPLE CAN AFFORD. AND I'M NOT OPPOSED TO THAT. BUT THIS IS NOT THE AREA. THIS IS NOT THE PLACE. IT NEEDS TO BE REPRESENTATIVE OF A TRUE TRANSITION FROM LOW DENSITY TO VERY LOW DENSITY. SO AGAIN, WE'RE WE'RE NOT OPPOSED TO DEVELOPMENT. WE LIKE THAT IT'S COMING. BUT I DO AGREE WITH MR. BOWLER AS WELL. HIS COMMENT THAT THAT FARM IT'S BEEN IN THEIR FAMILY FOR, FOR A LONG TIME. I'VE KNOWN HIM SINCE WE WERE IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TOGETHER. AND THEY'VE ALWAYS BEEN FARMERS. THEY'VE ALWAYS BEEN RESIDENTS OF WEST JORDAN.

THEY'VE HELPED TO DEVELOP MOST OF THIS AREA AS WELL, AND THEIR RIGHTS AND ALL OF OUR PROPERTY RIGHTS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED IN ANY DECISION THAT'S BEING MADE HERE. SO WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME, WE APPRECIATE YOUR EFFORT AND WHAT YOU'RE DOING, BUT WE ASK THAT YOU PLEASE CONSIDER LISTENING TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CITY THAT HAVE VOTED YOU INTO OFFICE HERE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE PRESENT WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK? OKAY, MR. ANDERSON, DO WE HAVE ANYBODY ONLINE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK? YOU HAVE ONE INDIVIDUAL ONLINE. THEY HAVE NOT RAISED THEIR HAND TO SPEAK ON THIS TOPIC. OKAY. THANK YOU. SEEING THERE IS NO FURTHER PUBLIC COMMENT, I WILL CLOSE THIS PUBLIC HEARING FOR ADDITIONAL COUNCIL DISCUSSION.

IS THERE ANYONE ON COUNCIL WHO WOULD LIKE TO ASK ANY MORE QUESTIONS OR COUNCIL MEMBER? HARRIS YEAH, I AM WONDERING THIS IS MAYBE A QUESTION TO THE REST OF THE COUNCIL. I'M REALLY INTRIGUED BY THE IDEA OF HAVING DIFFERENT ZONE IN THE TOP PART. IN THE NORTHERN PART THAT'S THAT'S BORDERS THE FARM. WHAT WOULD THE PROCESS BE FOR THAT? BECAUSE THAT ISN'T WHAT'S IN FRONT OF US. SO HOW WOULD THAT WORK? I'M JUST CURIOUS AS A NEWBIE, THAT'S A BETTER QUESTION FOR DUNCAN THAN US. ALL RIGHT, DUNCAN, COME ON UP. SO THIS IS AN APPLICATION PROCESS WHICH REACHES YOU. AND THEN YOU CAN EITHER APPROVE IT OR DENY IT. OTHER OPTIONS WHICH

[01:30:10]

BUT UNLESS AND UNTIL SOMETHING ALONG THOSE LINES OCCURS, YOU'RE PRETTY MUCH LIMITED TO APPROVING OR DENYING THE APPLICATION AS IS. OKAY. OKAY. THANK YOU, COUNCIL MEMBER DUNCAN. I THINK WE ALSO NEED TO BE TOLD WHAT OCCURS SO THAT EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS IF A NO VOTE OCCURS, THEN WHAT OCCURS, RIGHT? SO PROCEDURALLY, IF WHEN YOU MAKE A MOTION, YOU HAVE TO HAVE FOUR POSITIVE VOTES FOR IT TO PASS. IF YOU IF YOU MAKE A MOTION THAT DOESN'T PASS, THEN YOU CAN CONTINUE TO MAKE MORE MOTIONS. BUT UNTIL A MOTION PASSES, YOU HAVEN'T REALLY TAKEN ACTION, SO TO SPEAK, EFFECTIVELY. IT'S A IT'S A FAILED MOTION. IF YOU DON'T GET FOUR POSITIVE VOTES ON WHATEVER THE MOTION IS, WHETHER IT'S A MOTION TO APPROVE OR TO DENY, IT IS A BEST PRACTICE TO AT LEAST HAVE SOME MOTION PASS RIGHT WITH FOUR VOTES, THEN YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET INTO OTHER PROCEDURAL QUESTIONS THAT COULD HAPPEN FROM THERE. MR. LANGFORD.

COUNCILMEMBER DUNCAN'S CORRECT IS YOUR QUESTION, THOUGH. IF IT'S A NO VOTE, THEN WHAT HAPPENS OR WHAT CAN'T HAPPEN FOR LIKE A YEAR? I FIGURED AS MUCH. IF THE COUNCIL DECIDES TO DEVOTE THIS DOWN, THERE'S BASICALLY A MORATORIUM FOR. AND THAT'S PROBABLY THE WRONG WORD TO USE. BUT THEY CAN'T RESUBMIT THE SAME APPLICATION FOR A YEAR NOW. IF THEY SUBSTANTIALLY CHANGE IT, THEY CAN BRING IT BACK. AND THAT THAT'S UP TO OUR DISCRETION. BUT I THINK THAT'S MAYBE WHAT YOU'RE ASKING. WAIT. THANK YOU, COUNCIL MEMBER HARRIS, COME BACK UP. THE SO THE APPLICANT WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO DO ANYTHING WITH THIS PARCEL FOR A YEAR. CORRECT. SIMILAR WITH A SIMILAR DESIGN, A SIMILAR ZONING REQUEST, THEY COULD COME BACK AND SUBSTANTIALLY CHANGE IT AND IS SUBSTANTIALLY CHANGE SOMETHING YOU CAN DEFINE THAT'S NOT DEFINED IS IT? OKAY. OKAY. SO LIKE HYPOTHETICALLY, IF THERE WERE TO BE MORE OF A TRANSITION WITH LARGER LOTS AT THE TOP, AND IT GOES DOWN TO AN R THREE, THREE, EIGHT, MAYBE LOWER DOWN, LIKE, WOULD THAT BE A SUBSTANTIAL CHANGE? JUST HYPOTHETICALLY? HYPOTHETICALLY, YES. I WOULD FEEL COMFORTABLE CALLING THAT A SUBSTANTIAL DIFFERENCE THAN WHAT YOU SEE BEFORE YOU. OKAY. I DON'T WANT THE DEVELOPER TO BE JUST STALEMATED FOR A YEAR. I DON'T I DON'T THINK THAT'S THAT'S CERTAINLY NOT WHAT I WANT. I DON'T THINK THAT'S WHAT ANY OF US WANT. SO, SO I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE I UNDERSTOOD THAT THE DEVELOPERS, OBVIOUSLY HE'S HERE AND HE'S HERE GETTING THIS FEEDBACK. I I'M NOT SAYING TO INVITE HIM BACK UP, BUT I'M CURIOUS WHAT HE'S THINKING AND MAYBE I CAN JUST HAVE A CHAT WITH HIM. BUT ANYWAY, COUNCIL MEMBER LAM. OH, AM I GOOD TO GO? YES. SO MY QUESTION EARLIER ABOUT AN R THREE EIGHT VERSUS AN R ONE EIGHT. SO MY HOME IS ON AN R ONE EIGHT. I'VE GOT NOT A LOT OF YARD LIKE AN R 110 WOULD HAVE. BUT I'VE GOT A NICE HOME AN R ONE EIGHT RECENTLY. IN THE PAST YEAR OR TWO WE'VE APPROVED TWO R ONE EIGHTS OVER BY MY HOUSE ON 13 WEST. AND DOWN HERE ON THE ROAD. THOSE HOMES ARE STARTING AT $850,000. THEY'RE REALLY NICE HOMES. SO AS A COUNCIL, I DON'T THINK I'M FEELING THAT WE'RE GOING TO GET ANYBODY TO. THIS IS JUST ME PERSONALLY, THAT WE'RE GOING TO GET ANYBODY TO WANT TO PUSH THIS TONIGHT. I'D LIKE TO SEE WHAT WE CAN DO TO KIND OF LOOK AT IT AGAIN AND SEE IF AN RNA WOULD WORK. I THINK TONIGHT, NOT JUST TONIGHT, BUT OTHER NIGHTS. WE ALWAYS HEAR, WELL TO PENCIL IT IN. IT'S GOT TO BE THIS MUCH. AND I KEEP HEARING THAT, BUT THAT WE CAN PENCIL IT IN OR THEY CAN PENCIL IN ALREADY AND OUR ANTENNA AS WELL.

SO I'D LIKE TO LOOK AND SEE WHAT THAT WOULD DO. I, I KNOW THAT THEY WANT TO MOVE FORWARD ON THIS WITH THIS R THREE EIGHT, BUT WE'VE HEARD IT BEFORE. I'M NOT COMFORTABLE WITH AN R THREE EIGHT ZONE TONIGHT. SO EVEN IF SOMEONE WERE TO PUSH THIS FORWARD I WOULD BE A NO ON AN R THREE EIGHT. COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB THANK YOU. I HAVE THOUGHT A LOT ABOUT THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY AND THIS PROPOSAL OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS AS WE'VE MET WITH THE NEIGHBORS, MET WITH THE DEVELOPER AND LOOKED AT THIS CONCEPT PLAN. AND I'VE MADE A LOT OF

[01:35:06]

MOST SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTS, THAT'S THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE DEVELOP 5.99 UNITS PER ACRE IS IS REASONABLE FOR THAT TYPE OF A USE. NOW, IS THAT TYPE OF USE APPROPRIATE HERE? I DON'T KNOW, WE'LL I'LL GET TO THAT. BUT WHEN IF IF THE CITY WE WE BRING THIS UP A LOT THAT THE THE STATE LEGISLATURE IS LOOKING AT REMOVING ZONING AUTHORITY FROM CITIES. THEY BROUGHT IT UP EVERY SESSION FOR THE LAST 2 OR 3 YEARS. THEY'RE GOING TO BRING IT UP AGAIN THIS NEXT SESSION.

THAT STARTS IN A COUPLE MONTHS. AND THEY'RE GOING TO SAY, SORRY, YOU WANT SINGLE FAMILY HOMES, YOU'VE GOT TO ALLOW SEVEN UNITS PER ACRE. THAT'S THAT'S WHAT THEY'VE SAID. AND IT HASN'T GOTTEN TRACTION YET. BUT THEY DON'T STOP BRINGING IT UP. THEY JUST KEEP GOING UNTIL THE OVERTON WINDOW SHIFTS. AND NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN IT GETS THE TRACTION AND IT PASSES. AND THEN WE DON'T HAVE AUTHORITY TO SAY NO TO SOMETHING AT SIX UNITS AN ACRE. SO WHEN WE SAY NO TO SOMETHING AT 5.9 UNITS PER ACRE, AND WE SAY THAT'S TOO DENSE, THAT JUST GIVES THEM AMMUNITION FOR THAT EFFORT. AND THAT MAKES ME NERVOUS. HOWEVER. OH, THE OTHER THING, THE OTHER REASON I THINK THAT I COULD SUPPORT SOMETHING LIKE THIS IS BECAUSE WE'VE ALLOWED THE DEVELOPMENT TO GET TO THIS POINT, NOT THIS APPLICATION, BUT THE DEVELOPMENT THAT EXISTS.

THE HOMES ON THE EAST, THE FARM TO THE NORTH AND THE COMMERCIAL TO THE SOUTH AND TO THE WEST, THAT ALREADY EXISTS. WE'VE CREATED AN IMPOSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT HERE. NOTHING FITS.

I'VE HAD PEOPLE SAY YOU SHOULD REQUIRE HALF ACRE RURAL RESIDENTIAL LOTS WITH ANIMAL RIGHTS, BECAUSE THAT'S A GOOD BUFFER ZONE NEXT TO A FARM. AND IT IS THAT'S WHAT'S ON THE EAST SIDE. A LITTLE BIT FURTHER NORTH, RIGHT ON TYCHO DRIVE. THAT'S WHAT BACKS UP. AND THOSE ARE HALF ACRE LOTS WITH ANIMAL RIGHTS, YOU WOULDN'T KNOW IT DRIVING DOWN THE STREET. IT JUST LOOKS LIKE ANY OTHER SINGLE FAMILY NEIGHBORHOOD UNTIL YOU GET TO THE BACKYARD.

RIGHT? YEAH. THAT WOULD THAT WOULD BE GOOD HERE UNTIL YOU GET UP NEXT TO THE, YOU KNOW, CULVER'S AND, AND STUFF. AND ALL OF A SUDDEN NOW YOU DON'T WANT HALF ACRE ANIMAL RIGHTS NEXT TO THE CULVER'S. BUT THAT'S KIND OF WHAT YOU'D HAVE. SO ALL YOU'RE DOING IS MOVING WHERE THAT LINE, THERE'S GOING TO BE A LINE SOMEWHERE BETWEEN AGRICULTURE, ANIMAL RIGHTS AND NON-AGRICULTURE NON ANIMAL RIGHTS SOMEWHERE, WHETHER THAT'S RIGHT UP AGAINST THE COMMERCIAL, WHETHER THAT'S UP AGAINST THE FARM OR WHETHER IT'S HALFWAY IN BETWEEN, LIKE WE'VE KIND OF TALKED ABOUT, THERE'S GOING TO BE A LINE AND SOMEBODY'S GOING TO LIVE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THAT LINE FOR WHICHEVER PURPOSE THEY WANT TO LIVE THERE FOR. SO ALL OF THAT IS TO SAY, YES, I LIKE THE COMMERCIAL AGAINST 5600 WEST. THAT'S A GOOD IDEA. BUT ALL OF THAT IS TO SAY IS THERE'S THERE'S REASONS TO VOTE AGAINST THIS, AND THERE'S REASONS TO SUPPORT THIS. I REALLY DO THINK THAT THERE'S A MEET IN THE MIDDLE HERE SOMEWHERE. I DON'T

[01:40:07]

THAT HAS TO BE WITHIN TWO MEETINGS ON A REGULAR MOTION TO RECONSIDER. THAT'S CORRECT. BUT THIS SPECIAL MOTION TO RECONSIDER COULD BE DONE ANY TIME WITHIN THAT YEAR. SO THANK YOU. OKAY. IS THERE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION OR QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL VICE CHAIR SHELTON? SOMETIME BACK I WENT AND MET WITH THE BOWLERS REGARDING THIS DEVELOPMENT. THEY SUGGESTED LOWER DENSITY LOTS. BORDERING THEIR PROPERTY. I FEEL LIKE THIS. THIS DEEPER SETBACK ON THE ON THE BACK SIDE OF LOTS 52 THROUGH 63. I THINK THAT'S KIND OF GETTING THERE. I STILL WOULD LIKE TO SEE LOWER DENSITY ON THE NORTH END OF OF THIS DEVELOPMENT. I DID SPEAK WITH MR. SEAMAN ABOUT THIS. TOLD ME HE WOULD TAKE IT INTO CONSIDERATION. I GUESS THE QUESTION IS, IF WE IF WE DID LOWER DENSITY ON THE NORTH END, WOULD THE COUNCIL BE WILLING TO GO EVEN HIGHER DENSITY ON THE SOUTH END TO. MAKE UP FOR THAT? I GUESS THAT THAT'S A QUESTION I WOULD HAVE FOR THE COUNCIL. COUNCIL MEMBER. WHITLOCK. I FEEL LIKE WE ALREADY DID THAT WHEN WE. WE. NOT ME APPROVED CHANGING IT FROM THE OVER 55 TO ANYONE CAN LIVE THERE. THAT WAS WHAT THAT WAS BROUGHT TO US. SAYING THAT WOULD BE A GOOD THING TO MOVE FROM COMMERCIAL ON UP TO THE FIVE ACRE LOTS THAT THEY HAVE ON THE PRIVATE LANE. SO I IN MY OPINION, I FEEL WE'VE ALREADY APPROVED THAT HIGHER DENSITY FOR THEM AND THEN TO GO UP. SO FOR ME, NO, I'M NOT I'M NOT LOOKING TO INCREASE THE DENSITY ON THE LOWER PART. I WANT IT TO TRULY GO DOWN IN DENSITY. SO I WANT TO START ON HIGH, BUT I DON'T WANT TO GO TO A HIGH DENSITY.

WHEN WE GET DOWN TO 5 TO 12. THAT'S NOT WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR. AND I DON'T THINK THAT'S REALLY WHAT THE COMMUNITY IS LOOKING FOR. AND AGAIN, I GO BACK TO WE WERE SO INSISTENT ON A DIFFERENT DEVELOPER, JUST KITTY CORNER, THAT THEY HAD TO BE OUR TWELVES. WE'RE IT'S THE SAME AREA. SO I'M HAPPY TO ENTERTAIN SOMETHING. I WANT TO ENTERTAIN SOMETHING DIFFERENT BECAUSE OVERALL, I THINK WE DO NEED A TRANSITION. THIS WILL BE A GREAT PLACE TO TRANSITION. I ALWAYS WANT MORE COMMERCIAL. AND THAT'S A GOOD PLACE FOR COMMERCIAL. SO I CAN'T SAY YES TO THIS, BUT I ALSO DON'T WANT TO SEE US PACKING MORE AND MORE. AND I THINK THERE'S WAYS THAT

[01:45:05]

IT'S ALLOWED IN THE ZONE THAT WAS APPROVED. IT DIDN'T COME BACK TO THE COUNCIL. IT WASN'T REZONED FROM THAT SENIOR HOUSING. IN FACT, I JUST LOOKED IT UP AND THE SENIOR HOUSING OVERLAY IS STILL ON IT. SO I'M THAT'S WHY I'M CONCERNED WITH APPROVING AN R3 EIGHT ZONE FOR THIS, BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE THESE SAFEGUARDS IN PLACE IN THIS ORDINANCE, THERE ARE LOOPHOLES THAT YOU COULD FIND A WAY THROUGH. FOR EXAMPLE, WE CAN'T ALLOW MULTIFAMILY BECAUSE OF THE BALANCED HOUSING ORDINANCE, BUT THE BALANCED HOUSING ORDINANCE HAS HOW MANY EXCEPTIONS? IT'S A BIG OLD LIST, RIGHT? AND ALL YOU GOT TO DO IS PICK ONE OF THOSE AND SAY, WE'RE GOING TO MAKE IT, OH, LET'S CALL IT SENIOR HOUSING. AND THEN WE COULD CALL IT. THEN WE COULD BUILD MULTIFAMILY. AND THEN AFTER A LITTLE WHILE, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE SENIOR HOUSING ANYMORE. AND NOW WHERE ARE YOU AT? I'M NOT SAYING THAT THAT'S WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.

I KNOW THAT'S NOT THE DEVELOPER'S INTENTION TONIGHT. HIS INTENTION IS TO BUILD THIS.

AND I GET THAT. AND THERE'S A LOT OF GOOD THINGS ABOUT THIS, BUT THERE'S A LOT OF BAD THINGS ABOUT THIS. I DON'T WANT TO CALL THEM BAD. THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS THAT NEED TO BE ACROSS TR NEXT TO A FARM, RIGHT? WHETHER YOU HAVE 14 HOMES. SO YOU GOT THE SAME NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO COULD PICK UP THE PHONE AND CALL AND SAY, I DON'T LIKE THE FLIES. ALTHOUGH I DO HEAR FROM A LOT OF THESE EXISTING NEIGHBORS THAT THEY LIKE THAT LIVING BY THE FARM, AND THEY LIKE THE SMELLS AND THE FLIES AND THE I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS THAT THEY LIKE, BUT THEY LIKE THAT THERE'S A FARM RIGHT THERE. SO MAYBE THE PEOPLE MOVING IN WILL LIKE THE FARM TO LIKE ONE OF OUR COMMENTERS MENTIONED, I DON'T KNOW, LIKE I SAID, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE RIGHT ANSWER IS. I JUST I THINK THERE'S A COMPROMISE TO BE WORKED OUT HERE. AND I JUST DON'T THINK WE'VE GONE TO THE EFFORT THAT THE OTHER DEVELOPMENT ON THE STREET HAS GONE TO, TO, TO TRY AND REACH THAT COMPROMISE. COUNCIL MEMBER BADOR THANK YOU, CHAIR COUNCILMEMBER JACOB, IN THE LAST PART OF HIS STATEMENT, HE HAD A LOT OF THINGS THAT THAT I'VE BEEN THINKING, YOU KNOW, IN TERMS OF THAT DOESN'T MATTER THE NUMBER OF HOMES THAT ARE GOING TO BUTT UP AGAINST THE FARM, IT'S STILL GOING TO BE HOMES AGAINST THERE. AND IF WE'RE NOT LOOKING AT HOW TO MAKE THAT THE BEST FOR A, YOU KNOW, AN R1 TEN, WE I'M SURE WE'D BE DOING THE SAME THING FOR AN R ONE EIGHT. IT'S JUST GOING TO BE THE SAME THING. THE OTHER THING THAT I'M I'M THINKING, AND AS I LOOK AT THIS, YOU KNOW, WE DO THE IN THAT NORTH AREA, LARGER HOMES, THE PEOPLE TO THE EAST ARE GOING TO BE WONDERING WHY THEY DON'T GET THE LARGER HOMES DOWN THERE STRETCH AS WELL. AND SO NOW WE'RE BUILDING THIS, YOU KNOW, KIND OF WALL THERE. AND, AND IF IT BECOMES THAT, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE YOU CAN'T JUST DO IT AGAINST ONE, THERE'S GOING TO BE BOTH SIDES. THEY'RE GOING TO GOING TO, YOU KNOW, WANT TO SEE SOMETHING THAT THEY PREFER IN THEIR BACKYARD THAN, THAN WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED THAT NOW STIMULATES SOMETHING WHERE WE NEED TO THEN LOOK AT WHAT'S GOING TO BE IN THAT MIDDLE. YOU CAN'T REALLY DO THE LARGE HOMES. YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE REALLY STRANGE TO LOOK AT WHAT IS DRAWN UP FOR THAT DRIVE THROUGH AND THINK THAT IT'S HOME.

THAT'S GOING TO COST A MILLION, AND A QUARTER IS GOING TO WANT TO BE NEXT TO THE DRIVE THROUGH.

[01:50:03]

AND IT, IT IS ALWAYS TOUGH FOR ME WHEN I HEAR PEOPLE BELITTLE A NEIGHBORHOOD AND MAKE A THING LIKE, WELL, AM I. AM I NOT AS GOOD BECAUSE I LIVE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD? I KNOW THAT'S NONE OF YOUR INTENTIONS. BUT I LIVE IN A GOOD NEIGHBORHOOD. AND SO I LOOK AT THIS KIND OF THING CONSIDERING THE PEOPLE TO THE EAST. AND THEN IF WE DO THAT, WE HAVE ENTIRE AREA BE BUILT UP WITH BIG HOMES, NOT WITH ALL THE COMMERCIAL GOING AROUND IT. AND AGAIN, NOT NEXT TO A DRIVE THROUGH. SO I I JUST WANTED TO MAKE THOSE POINTS OF. THESE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE TO LOOK INTO WHEN WE DO THIS, AND WE DO HAVE TO LOOK INTO THE FUTURE AND TO THE, YOU KNOW, BOULDER SAYING THAT, YOU KNOW, IT MIGHT SOMEDAY BE RESIDENTIAL. THERE WAS A TIME YOU WERE ASKING US TO PUT A STUB STREET IN THAT AREA, WHICH TELLS ME RIGHT AWAY, YOU WERE LOOKING TO SOMEDAY MAKE THAT RESIDENTIAL. AND SO THAT'S HOW THAT THOUGHT GETS INTO OUR MIND THERE. OBVIOUSLY LOOKING AT THIS AT SOME DAY, WE DON'T KNOW WHEN THAT DAY WILL COME, BUT AS SOON AS SUBSTRATES WERE ASKED FOR OUR STUB STREETS, THAT WAS THE FIRST THING THAT CAME TO MY MIND. THEY'RE LOOKING TO SELL THIS, AND THEY WOULD LIKE THIS PROPERTY TO BE AS VALUABLE AS POSSIBLE. AND WHY WOULDN'T YOU? IF I OWNED THAT PROPERTY, I WOULD WANT IT TO BE AS VALUABLE AS POSSIBLE AS WELL. SO THERE ARE MANY THINGS WE LOOK INTO WHEN IT COMES TO THESE VOTES.

AND I WANTED TO JUST MAKE A STATEMENT TO LET YOU KNOW, AGAIN, THAT WE LOOK INTO THIS FROM ALL SIDES, HOW THIS WORKS ON ON EVERYTHING. AND IT'S STILL SOMETHING THAT, LIKE I SAID IN MY MIND, I'M STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT, AS WITH COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB, THERE ARE GOODS AND BADS WITH ALL OF THIS. OKAY. IS THERE ARE THERE ANY MORE QUESTIONS OR DISCUSSION FROM COUNCIL? OKAY. IF THERE IS NO FURTHER DISCUSSION, I WILL NOW LOOK FOR A MOTION ON ORDINANCE NUMBER 26-47. OKAY. I WILL JUST BEGIN BY SAYING THAT I AM NOT GOING TO APPROVE THIS TONIGHT. FOR A LOT OF THE REASONS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN DISCUSSED, I DO FEEL LIKE WE NEED LOWER DENSITY AGAINST THAT NORTH WALL. I DO HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE INSECTS, EVEN THOUGH THEY WILL MOVE IN THERE. KNOWING THAT AND THE SMELL, KNOWING

AMENDING THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP TO MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL AND COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL AND REZONE 14.07 ACRES TO R THREE EIGHT AND SC TWO FOR HIGHLANDS LANDING NORTH AT APPROXIMATELY 7592. SOUTH 5490. WEST COUNCIL MEMBER WHITELOCK. I'LL SECOND. THANK YOU. WE WILL NOW MOVE TO A VOTE. COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB. THANK YOU. I'M GOING TO VOTE NO ON THE MOTION. NOW, I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT'S NOT A VOTE TO APPROVE. IT'S JUST A VOTE NOT TO DENY, BECAUSE I THINK THERE'S STILL WORK TO BE DONE. AND I THINK THAT WE CAN I THINK THAT WE CAN GET THERE. SO I'LL BE A NO. ON THE MOTION TO NOT APPROVE. BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I'M VOTING TO APPROVE. I JUST HOPE THAT'S CLEAR. AND I THINK A FEW OF US FEEL THAT SAME WAY. OKAY.

COUNCILMEMBER WHITELOCK SO, COUNCIL MEMBER JACOB, DO YOU HAVE AN ALTERNATIVE MOTION THAT YOU'D LIKE TO MAKE? NO. OKAY, OKAY. THANK YOU. OKAY, MISS QUICK, WE'LL MOVE TO A VOTE.

VICE CHAIR SHELTON. NO. COUNCIL MEMBER. HARRIS, CAN CAN I CAN I INTERRUPT AS A POINT OF ORDER? SO THE MOTION TO NOT APPROVE IS KIND OF REVERSE. SO YOU VOTE YES. IF YOU'RE IN AGREEMENT WITH THE MOTION, YOU VOTE NO. IF YOU'RE OPPOSED TO THE MOTION, WHICH IS TO DENY. WAIT. WHAT? I'M MORE CONFUSED NOW AS WELL. RIGHT. THE MOTION WAS THE MOTION WAS TO DENY. SO IF YOU VOTE YES, YOU'RE AGREEING TO DENY. IF YOU'RE VOTING NO, YOU'RE IN OPPOSITION TO THE MOTION, WHICH IS TO DENY IT'S REVERSE FROM WHAT YOU THINK. OKAY. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? YES.

I THOUGHT WE WERE VOTING NO TO THE REZONE. YES. THAT'S THE MOTION IS TO DENY THE ACTION, RIGHT? YES. SO A YES VOTE MEANS YOU AGREE WITH THE MOTION TO DENY. OH, OKAY. A NO VOTE MEANS LIKE COUNCIL MEMBER JACOBS SAID. SHENANIGANS. WHAT'S THAT? ARE YOU TRYING TO PULL SHENANIGANS RIGHT NOW? NO, I'M JUST DOING ROBERT'S. I'M JUST KIDDING. JUST ROBERT'S RULES, THAT'S ALL.

OKAY. OKAY. SO THEN HOW DO I SO RETRACT? BECAUSE I WOULD LIKE. OR DO YOU HAVE A MOTION IN A SECOND? SO YOU'D HAVE TO GET COUNCIL TO AGREE TO WITHDRAW ALL OF THAT. YOU JUST CONFUSED ALL OF US SO MUCH. AT LEAST. ME WELL, OKAY. WHAT WAS YOUR ORIGINAL MOTION? WILL YOU RESTATE YOUR ORIGINAL ORIGINAL? I DON'T WANT TO APPROVE THIS. OKAY. SO THEN OKAY, BUT I'VE ORIGINALLY VOTED NO. DID WE ALREADY CALL YOUR NAME? NO, BUT I OKAY. GOTCHA. YOU JUST MADE THE MOTION. SORRY. IT'S NOT. I SHOULD HAVE JUST LET IT GO. NO. WELL, BUT BUT COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON SAID NO. WHICH MEANS HE DISAGREES WITH THE MOTION TO DENY. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? YES.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOUR RECORDED VOTE IS WHAT YOU REALLY, REALLY MEAN. OKAY. YES.

THANK YOU. OKAY. COUNCIL MEMBER. HARRIS. YES. COUNCIL MEMBER. JACOB. NO. COUNCIL MEMBER.

WHITELOCK. YES. CHAIR. WAGNER. YES. COUNCIL MEMBER. LIAM. YES. COUNCIL MEMBER OR NO? OKAY, I SHOW THE MOTION PASSES. 4 TO 3 TO NOT APPROVE. THERE WERE FOUR YESES. THREE NO'S. RIGHT.

THAT'S HOW YOU SAY IT PASSES 4 TO 3. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR THE

[02:00:01]

[b. Resolution No. 26-043 Community Development Block Grant Budget Adjustment and Subrecipient Allocation for Project Year 2026]

THAT'S STAFF TIME. THERE'S THREE STAFF MEMBERS THAT WORK A LOT ON CDBG, AS WELL AS THE CONSULTANT GRO AMERICA OF $96,347.60. THEN 250,000 TO ASSIST, WHICH IS A SUBRECIPIENT WHICH DOES EMERGENCY HOME REPAIRS, DO STUFF LIKE FIX ROOFS WHEN IT'S RAINING AND PUT HEATING IN THE HOUSES THAT DON'T HAVE HEATERS, WHICH IS A WAY TO ALLOW PEOPLE TO STAY IN THEIR HOMES RATHER THAN MOVING OUT AND HAVING TO FIND HOUSING, WHICH IS VERY DIFFICULT RIGHT NOW. THE $36,300 TO SOUTH VALLEY SANCTUARY, $22,346.40 TO LEGAL AID SOCIETY AND $76,744 TO BOOST, WHICH IS AN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM WHICH CREATES MICRO ENTERPRISES IN A DAYCARE TYPE FUNCTION HERE IN THE CITY. SO JUST KIND OF SOME INFORMATION OF HOW WE GOT HERE.

EVERY YEAR, THE CITY RECEIVES AN ALLOCATION FROM HUD, AND THOSE ARE MONIES THAT WE HAVE TO SPEND TO BRING PEOPLE OUT OF THE LOW, TO MODERATE INCOME AND TO KIND OF IMPROVE THE STANDING OF INDIVIDUALS. AFTER WE ARE ALLOCATED THAT MONEY, WE DO A NOTICE OF FUNDING AVAILABLE, WHICH WE DID THIS YEAR FROM AUGUST 3RD TO AUGUST 31ST. DURING THAT TIME, WE RECEIVED FIVE APPLICATIONS FROM SUB RECIPIENTS TO SPEND THAT MONEY. WE HAVE A COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT COMMITTEE HERE, WHICH I'VE MET ALL THE APPLICANTS. THEY PRESENTED THEIR BUDGETS, WHAT THEY'RE ASKING FOR, AND WE MADE A THEY MAKE A RECOMMENDATION. I'M NOT ACTUALLY ON THE COMMITTEE. COMMITTEE MEMBERS ARE ONE MEMBER OF THE CITY COUNCIL, WHICH IS COUNCIL MEMBER SHELTON. WE HAVE A PLANNING COMMISSIONER, CITY RESIDENT, AND WE HAVE RESIDENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES FROM COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT, PUBLIC WORKS FINANCE, AND OUR COMMUNITY OUTREACH DEPARTMENT. SO THEY REVIEW ALL THE APPLICATIONS AND THERE ARE SOME STIPULATIONS WHICH WE HAVE TO STAY WITHIN. SO OF THE MONEY WE RECEIVE, ONLY 20% CAN GO TOWARDS ADMINISTRATION AND OVERSIGHT, AND THEN 15% CAN GO TOWARDS PUBLIC SERVICES. BUT NO MORE THAN THAT. THAT'S SOUTH VALLEY SANCTUARY AND LEGAL AID SOCIETY ARE ACTUALLY DEFINED AS PUBLIC SERVICES. AND THEN ANY FUNDED ACTIVITY NEEDS TO BE A PRIORITY.

ADOPTED IN OUR FIVE YEAR CONSOLIDATED PLAN. WE'RE IN YEAR TWO OF OUR CURRENT CONSOLIDATED PLAN FROM 2025 TO 2029, AND IT ALSO HAS TO BE ADOPTED AS A PRIORITY ON OUR ANNUAL ACTION PLAN. SO AS I MENTIONED OVER ABOUT FOUR MEETINGS, THE CDBG COMMITTEE MET WITH ALL OF THE APPLICANTS. THEY HEARD THEIR PROPOSALS, AND WE GOT THE RECOMMENDATIONS, WHICH I PRESENTED TO YOU JUST A SECOND AGO. WE AS STAFF DO SUPPORT THE FINDINGS OF THE CDBG COMMITTEE. ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE'RE SEEING THIS TREND. WE'RE GETTING FEWER AND FEWER APPLICATIONS. IF YOU LOOK AT TEN YEARS AGO, WE WERE GETTING 10 OR 11 APPLICATIONS.

THIS YEAR WE RECEIVED FIVE. AND ONE REASON WE'VE HEARD THAT THAT'S HAPPENING IS WE IN THE PAST WOULD FUND EVERY APPLICATION THAT CAME IN, BUT WE NEVER HAVE AS MUCH MONEY AS APPLICATIONS THAT COME IN, WHICH MEANS WE ARE FUNDING APPLICATIONS PARTIALLY. AND THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS WHETHER YOU GET YOUR FULL ALLOCATION OR JUST A PORTION, IT'S JUST AS MUCH OF A LOGISTICAL PROCESS FOR THE APPLICANT TO GO THROUGH. AND SO WE'RE HEARING MORE AND MORE THAT IT JUST ISN'T WORTH THE MONEY TO, TO APPLY, BECAUSE WE'RE NOT GETTING ENOUGH TO DO ALL OF THE LEGAL LOOPHOLES. SO WHAT THE CURRENT COMMITTEE FOCUSED ON WAS FULLY FUNDING CHOSEN APPLICANTS TO MAKE SURE THAT IF THEY'RE ASKING FOR MONEY AND WE'RE CHOOSING THEM, THAT WE'D FULLY MEET THEIR ASK. THAT WAY THEY'RE ENCOURAGED TO APPLY YEAR AFTER YEAR BECAUSE IT IS WORTH THEIR TIME AND EFFORT TO GO THROUGH THE FEDERAL PROCESS OF USING CDBG FUNDS. ALSO, THIS YEAR, ALL OUR RECOMMENDED SUB RECIPIENTS HAVE WORKED IN THE CITY BEFORE AND BEEN SUCCESSFUL, AND THEY ALL DO MEET OUR PRIORITIES AND CONSOLIDATED PLAN AND THE

[02:05:02]

COUNCILMEMBER WHITLOCK SO YOU ANSWERED MY FIRST QUESTION, BUT NOW YOU BROUGHT UP ANOTHER ONE.

HAVE. AND AND I'M GOING TO LOOK OVER HERE. BUT HAVE WE HAD ADAM TALK TO OUR FEDERAL DELEGATION AND EXPLAINED THIS TO THEM? I THINK IT'S IT'S SOMETHING THEY SHOULD BE AWARE OF THAT, YOU KNOW, THIS IS GREAT. WE HAVE THESE. BUT IF YOU'RE REQUIRING SOMEONE TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME, SOMETIMES THE BEST DECISIONS AREN'T THERE. WE HAVE WE HAVE NOT. HOWEVER, IT'S A GOOD IDEA. AND YOU KNOW HOW GOOD THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS AT LISTENING TO US, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE SHOULDN'T TALK TO THEM ANYWAY. VICE CHAIR SHELTON. I WANTED TO ASK, IS THE THE AMOUNT THAT'S ALLOCATED FOR CITY STAFF THE ADMINISTRATION OF THIS? IS THAT COVERING OUR COSTS AS A CITY, OR ARE WE GOING IN THE HOLE EVERY YEAR BECAUSE OF THAT? YEAH, I REALLY DOUBT THAT IT COVERS THE COST, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE HAVE CONSULTANT, WE HAVE MY TIME. THERE'S SOME OTHER PLANNERS THAT WORK ON THIS AS WELL AS PEOPLE IN OUR FINANCE DEPARTMENT. I WOULD BE VERY SURPRISED IF THE ADMINISTRATION COSTS COVERED WHAT TIME GOES INTO IT. BUT WE HAVE PULLED THE MAXIMUM THAT WE'RE ALLOWED TO PULL, RIGHT? THAT'S CORRECT. OKAY. ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY.

THERE ARE NO OTHER QUESTIONS. I'LL NOW OPEN IT TO A PUBLIC HEARING FOR RESOLUTION NUMBER 26-043. IS THERE ANYONE IN ATTENDANCE? LIKE TO SPEAK? OKAY. IF THERE IS NO ONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK. WALTER IS THERE. EXCUSE ME, MR. SCHMIDT, IS THERE ANYONE ONLINE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK? THERE'S ONE PERSON ONLINE AND THEY HAVE RAISED THEIR HAND. OKAY.

MELANIE. YOU'RE ON. HI. CAN YOU HEAR ME? OKAY. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR COUNCIL MEMBERS. MY NAME IS MELANIE FOR. I'M THE COMMUNITY IMPACT MANAGER AT EPWORTH'S. THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THE ANNUAL ACTION PLAN AND FOR YOUR CONTINUED INVESTMENT IN LOCAL FAMILY CHILD CARE BUSINESSES THROUGH BOOST OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS. AS TAYLOR MENTIONED, BOOST HELPS LOW TO MODERATE INCOME FAMILY CHILD CARE PROVIDERS STRENGTHEN AND GROW THEIR BUSINESS, IN TURN CREATING QUALITY LOCAL JOBS AND EXPANDING ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE CARE FOR WORKING FAMILIES. EACH PROVIDER RECEIVES ONE ON ONE BUSINESS COACHING, FREE ACCESS TO OFFERS, CHILD CARE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND NEW. THIS YEAR IS A SELF-PACED LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WITH OVER 20 MODULES COVERING EVERYTHING FROM LICENSING TO FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND HIRING A TEACHING ASSISTANT. OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS, THE BOOST TEAM HAS SUPPORTED 17 FAMILY CHILD CARE PROVIDERS IN WEST JORDAN, AND AROUND TWO DOZEN MORE COULD BENEFIT FROM THIS SUPPORT. SO WITH COUNCIL'S APPROVAL, OUR GOAL NEXT YEAR IS TO SERVE TEN ADDITIONAL PROVIDERS, CREATE THREE TEACHING ASSISTANT JOBS AND HELP PARTICIPATING PROVIDERS INCREASE REVENUE BY 20% IN THE FIRST YEAR ALONE, EXPANDING ACCESS TO RELIABLE QUALITY CARE FOR APPROXIMATELY 80 FAMILIES, AGAIN, ALL IN THE FIRST YEAR. SUSTAINABILITY IS REALLY AT THE CORE OF THE PROGRAM. SO IN THE SPIRIT OF TEACHING A WOMAN A FISH BOOST IS DESIGNED AS A ONE YEAR PROGRAM FOR EACH PROVIDER, NOT ONE THAT THEY'RE GOING TO REQUIRE YEAR AFTER YEAR. THEY DO. PROVIDERS DO KEEP FREE ACCESS TO OUR CHILD CARE

[02:10:04]

IS THERE ANY CAN I JUST TAKE A PERSONAL LIBERTY FOR A MOMENT? GO FOR IT BEFORE THE VOTE. I.

HAD A CHANCE TO REVIEW THE APPLICATIONS AND WAS INVOLVED IN THE SELECTION ON ON LEVEL.

WONDERFUL STUFF. AND AND I'M JUST I'M, I'M PLEASED AND HAPPY TO TO VOTE YES ON THIS. I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE A PERSONAL LIBERTY TO JUST THROW SOME SHADE AT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. THE THE AMOUNT OF WASTE THAT GOES IN TO ALLOCATING THESE FUNDS IS INSANE. THIS COULD BE DONE SO MUCH BETTER FROM A LOCAL LEVEL. AND IT'S JUST IT'S SO FRUSTRATING TO ME TO SEE THE WAY THIS IS BEING HANDLED FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT DOWN. AND IT'S JUST UNFORTUNATE THAT SO MUCH IS WASTED JUST IN IN, AND NOT ONLY BY THE EFFORTS OF THE CITY, BUT IT PEOPLE WHO ARE RUNNING THIS PROGRAM ON THE FEDERAL LEVEL. AND THEN IT BLEEDS ALL THE WAY DOWN INTO THE ORGANIZATIONS WHO HAVE TO ACCOUNT FOR EVERY MINUTIA JUST TO BE ABLE TO SPEND THIS MONEY IN, SO MUCH SO THAT SO MANY PEOPLE. JUST, THEY REFUSE TO EVEN APPLY FOR THIS MONEY. IT'S NOT EVEN WORTH THEIR EFFORT. AND SO THANK YOU FOR THE MOMENT OF PERSONAL LIBERTY THERE.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AND WITH THAT RESOLUTION YOU JUST PASSED, THE NEXT STEP WOULD BE TO FORMALIZE THE BUDGET SIDE OF IT, WHICH IS ALL THE SAME INFORMATION THAT TAYLOR JUST PRESENTED, OR JUST PUTTING IT IN THE FORMAT THAT WE HAVE FOR FOR OUR BUDGET. AND THEN IT WOULD THUS NEED YOUR APPROVAL FOR US TO GO AHEAD AND SPEND THOSE FUNDS FOR THE PROGRAMS THAT ARE HAD APPLIED AND RECEIVED THAT APPROVAL. YOU CAN SEE THERE WE'RE JUST ADDING THE REVENUE. LET ME BACK UP THE THE GREEN COLUMNS. THERE IS WHAT WE ADOPTED IN OUR ANNUAL BUDGET IN AUGUST, BECAUSE WE DID NOT HAVE THIS INFORMATION AT THE TIME. AND THEN YOU CAN SEE THAT SECOND GREEN COLUMN IS THE AMOUNT FOR THIS ORDINANCE, THIS AMENDMENT WHICH RESULTS IN THAT YELLOW COLUMN, WHICH WILL BE THE THE BUDGET FOR THE YEAR. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS ON THE BUDGET SIDE OF THINGS? COUNCIL MEMBER BADOR, I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY SORRY YOU HAD TO WAIT THIS LONG TO DO THAT.
