George Chapman spoke about Redwood Road and State Street needing
the most service improvements (utilize Senate Bill 136) and encouraging
transit expansion south of Salt Lake (improve air quality) . He asked the
Council to delay approval until discussions were held with Utah Transit
Authority (UTA) and Salt Lake County about ways to expand/provide better
bus service .
Everett Mendenhall talked about Councilmember Mendenhall' s service
on the City Council and thought she had done a good job as Council Chair.
Robert Goodman said he felt the primary objective of many transit
master plans/initiatives was to connect the Eastside to the Westside . He
also spoke in support of priority bus lanes, faster routes, signal
prioritization, and utilizing "Free Fare" days to improve air quality.
Levi Thatcher spoke about increasing bus speeds, longer distances
between stops, signal prioritization, and having dedicated lanes along
dense corridors like 200 South/2100 South.
James Ord spoke about the difficulty of traveling east to west
across the City, the need for better transit options, and extending mass
transit routes into underserved areas like Glendale and Rose Park.
Councilmember Fowler moved and Councilmember Luke seconded to
continue the public hearing to a later date, which motion carried, all
members present voted aye .

diverse citizen perspective to the office. View Attachment

MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 11 , 2018
George Chapman spoke about his respect/appreciation for the Council
but said it was unethical/insulting to taxpayers to implement a salary
increase while street improvements and other issues needed to be
addressed. He further spoke about losing 25% of the City' s police force
over the past three years (inadequate compensation) , officers deserving
pay increases, implementation of three tax increases in 2018, and
proposal to double water/sewer fees . He asked the Council to forgo a pay
increase until officers' salaries were increased and City streets were
improved/maintained. He also talked about the Council holding a lot of
meetings that the public did not know about and felt those needed to be
open to the public.
Robert Goodman spoke in favor of the proposal and incentivizing
diversity to encourage people from all walks-of-life to run for City
Council .
Nigel Swaby submitted a hearing card only in support of the proposed
pay increase . He said Council Members put in long hours representing
constituents and a salary adjustment was overdue.
Councilmember Johnston moved and Councilmember Wharton seconded to
close the public hearing and adopt an ordinance enacting Section
2 . 06 . 070 , Salt Lake City Code, setting the annual salary for each member
of the City Council at 25% of the Mayor' s annual salary as of January,
2019 .
Councilmember Wharton' s comments on the proposal included being
unaware of compensation when running for Council (found out during
campaign) , not anticipating this issue coming up, having limited
perspective being a new Councilmember, demands of Council time, personal
sacrifice of Council Members/families, and creating more diversity. He
said he felt approving the proposal was the right thing to do, not
necessarily for existing Council Members, but to create future
opportunities for more diverse representation from City residents .
Councilmember Fowler said she agreed with Councilmember Wharton and
also wanted to point out that 30 years ago the intent was for Mayor and
Council compensation to be based on a 1 : 4 or 25% ratio. She said it was
more a matter of mathematics because the ratio had been off over the
past 30 years . She said although it was a raise, she felt it was just
putting the Council back to what she believed was the original intent.
7 :47 : 18 PM Councilmember Rogers proposed a friendly amendment to the
motion to enact the new Code following the 2019 General Election.
Councilmember Johnston accepted the amendment .
18 - 3
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 11 , 2018
Councilmember Wharton expressed concerns about the amendment. He
said he felt the compensation discussion was prompted by the upcoming
vacancy in District Four because Council Members were interested in
recruiting the best residents to fill the position. He said he felt
additional salary would provide extra incentive and open the field to
more applicants . He said he did not see the benefit of delaying the
increase for a year.
Councilmember Mendenhall asked if Councilmember Wharton was opposed
to the friendly amendment. Councilmember Wharton said he wanted to
understand the purpose of the amendment.
Councilmember Rogers provided an explanation and felt the Council
would get a fresh perspective by following the election cycle. He said
someone being appointed might not choose to go through the election
process .
Councilmember Mendenhall requested clarification regarding how to
handle friendly amendments . Ms . Gust-Jenson said there was often
confusion about this because it was thought the motion-maker and seconder
needed to accept the amendment, but in actuality the entire "Body" had
to accept it, because once the motion was made it became the property of
the "Body" and the "Body" would have to accept the amendment. She
suggested the Council hold a vote on whether the "Body" accepted the
friendly amendment.
Councilmember Luke spoke in opposition of the friendly amendment .
Comments included compensation discussions being held for years,
delaying salary increases over the years causing disparity (original
intent 4 : 1 ratio between Mayor and Council) , unpopular/difficult issue
to discuss (politians not wanting to be on record supporting their own
pay increase) , importance of having qualified leadership, Mayor' s salary
being increased multiple times over the past 30 years, constituent
feedback, and closing the disparity gap. He said he did not see any
benefit in delaying the increase to November and thought the Council
needed to just make a decision either way.
Councilmember Mendenhall' s comments on the proposal included there
being real costs associated with people' s jobs, Council Members being
dramatically underpaid, and District 5 residents not being willing or
able to hold elected office due to low compensation. She said she felt
democracy meant everyone should have the opportunity to serve without it
costing their families .
Councilmember Mendenhall called for a roll call vote on the Friendly
Amendment, which motion failed. Council Members Wharton, Mendenhall,

being sympathetic to the applicant' s desire/need to promote their
business, maintaining City' s long-standing position to limit
billboards/signage, and potentially setting a precedent by allowing the
expansion of signage in open space areas (along freeways/roadways) . They
said they hoped other opportunities could be found to help the Club find
a viable solution. Councilmember Mendenhall said the City put murals in
the Granary District and thought there might be some flexibility for
privately-owned businesses to utilize that option.

Central Business District (D-1) , consideration may be given to rezoning

COMMENTS TO THE CITY COUNCIL 8:21:36 PM
Cindy Cromer spoke/submitted written comments about attributes she
appreciated in Councilmember Kitchen such as diligence, loyalty,
civility, intelligence, and stamina. She said he was leaving too soon
and hoped the Council would look for those same qualities when filling
the vacant position in January, 2019 .
George Chapman expressed concern about American Public Works
Association (APWA) standards being utilized by the City for street
repairs . He said those standards did not require contractors to fix the
"shoulders" where bicyclists rode . He said the City was trying to
encourage bicycling and with the $87 million bond adopted for road
repairs, he urged the Council/Administration to ensure that practice was
changed and "shoulders" were repaired during construction/resurfacing.
Ryan Steele expressed concerns about the $50, 000 being allocated to
the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce (SLCOC) . He said Chamber affiliates
intended to use SLCOC to lobby the State Legislature to modify or do
away with current referendum laws . (He cited the recent Holladay City
referendum where voters rejected the proposed Cottonwood Mall site
development) . He said in many cases, this was the last resort for
citizens to have their voices heard. He asked the Council to hold a
discussion to consider whether it was appropriate to spend taxpayer money
to fund a special interest group that wanted to rescind citizen' s rights .
Brent Koga submitted a hearing card only regarding Item 4 (D-4
Downtown Secondary Central Business District S) . He talked about
potentially eliminating the overlay in D-4 (additional height in Block
67 not being needed) .
