owners in enhanced lighting areas, make efforts to grow mailing
or emailing contact lists in order to notify property owners
about work scheduled in certain neighborhoods, and annually share
information about how enhanced lighting rates are set, how the
funds are used, where capital improvements are scheduled, overall
financial health of the enhanced lighting budget, and other items
as they arise.
b. It is the intent of the Council that the scheduled rate study for
the Lighting Fund include the following key components :
i . Preservation of the base lighting policy that the fee
charged to all property owners for base lighting is to
16 - 3
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL
TUESDAY, JUNE 14 , 2016
cover the Citywide cost of base lighting, because all
residents benefit from a base level of lighting throughout
all neighborhoods and on main roads .
ii . Emphasis will be given to accurately assess the costs of
enhanced lights, base lights, and related infrastructure
so the full cost of enhancements are allocated to property
owners in enhanced lighting areas (cost including, but not

operating costs , etc. )

property owners in enhanced lighting areas . It is the Council' s
understanding that the rates will continue to be evaluated and set in
order to generate enough revenue to cover the full cost of enhanced
lighting in those areas of the City so that no other Utility Funds nor
the General Fund will be required to financially contribute to cover
enhanced lighting expenses .
7 :13:37 PM Councilmember Penfold commented on the motion . He said
he felt the proposal was the best solution to resolve a number of
problems with the multiple array of enhanced lighting districts . He

MOTION 6: 7:19:33 PM Councilmember Penfold moved and Councilmember Luke
seconded to adopt the following Legislative Intent Statements (Items
a-j) , which motion carried, all members present voted aye .
a. Administration Metrics and Reporting (Note: The Council may also
consider formalizing these items in the Reporting Ordinance. )
i. Metrics in conjunction with the annual budget. It is the intent
of the Council that department metrics be included with the
annual budget, and updated annually. The metrics of interest are
items that measure the effectiveness of the City' s service
delivery, or track a department' s progress towards specific
goals . The Council welcomes the inclusion of existing
measurements and is not asking that new systems and metrics be
developed in all cases . However, in cases where tracking these
metrics requires increased resources, the Council will consider
these requests highly important.
ii. Six-month check-in with new and interim Department directors. It
is the intent of the Council to request mid-year briefings (in
December or January) with all new Directors of the City' s
departments . The Administration is invited to include an
Administrative report on the activities and direction of various
City departments with new, vacant (or interim) department
directors .
iii. Public Services . It is the intent of the Council to request that
the Administration report back mid-year (in December or January)
how funding will be achieved to cover the prioritized list of
maintenance needs at City facilities, parks, and other open space
properties within the Public Services budget, so that adequate
funds can be built into the Fiscal Year 2017-2018 base budget .
iv. Golf Revenue for Fiscal Year 2016-2017 . It is the intent of the
16 - 7
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL
TUESDAY, JUNE 14 , 2016
Council to request that the Administration provide interim Golf
Fund revenue updates to help the Council assess the of new
initiatives, like demand-based pricing, and decide whether the
Fiscal Year 2016-2017 Golf revenue budget should be adjusted.
This would make most sense as a written-only update in
August/September, to be followed by a full, in-depth briefing in
October/November, after various revenue-enhancing strategies have
been in place for most of the golf season. Key metrics expected
in this briefing would include:
• The total number of rounds and revenue at each course .
• The revenue per round at each course.
• Expenses at each course, including potential maintenance
increases as a result of additional play.
v. Wingpointe Golf Course. It is the intent of the Council to
request that the Administration report the findings of its review
of Wingpointe' s viability when these become available . It might
make sense to present these in conjunction with the
August/September written update on Fiscal Year 2016-2017 Golf
revenue, above .
vi . Golf Future Revenue Projections for future budgets . It is the
intent of the Council that in future budgets, Golf Fund revenue
projections be based on actual rounds played during the previous
fiscal year.
vii. Arts Council. It is the intent of the Council to request the
Administration report back with more in-depth review of Arts
Council funding at the conclusion of the 2016 Twilight Concert
Series . The review would include key measurements from the
season, the outside consultant' s study findings, and other
information provided by the Administration that would help the
Council evaluate whether to add funds to the Arts Council
operating budget. It is the intent of the Council to consider
this information in the context of the City' s overall economic
development goals .
b. Fleet Fund Financial Sustainability. It is the intent of the Council
to request that the Administration report back during the first
Council meeting in November on a plan to achieve financial
sustainability of the Fleet Fund.
c. Impound Lot. It is the intent of the Council that effective consumer
protection be part of any City contract with private providers for
towing and impound services . Recognizing that contracts are the
purview of the Administration, the Council provides the following
policy guidance on consumer protection.
i. Every contracted towing and/or impound business must offer to
potential clients a printed copy of a fee schedule before
16 - 8
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL
TUESDAY, JUNE 14 , 2016
providing services . This fee schedule also must be posted in a
prominent location at the vehicle storage facility and on tow
trucks . The fee schedule must:
• specify a Total Maximum Fees and Charges price which includes
the first day of storage (subsequent days of storage would be
charged in accordance with State code) ; and
• include an itemized list of any fees that are not regulated in
State code that the business may choose to apply in any
particular case.
ii. The vehicle storage facility would:
• accept payment offered in cash or by major credit card, and
maintain cash on hand to make change.
• post the telephone number of the City office designated to
handle consumer protection issues;
• maintain personnel authorized to provide information to vehicle
owners 24 hours each day (including weekends) , as well as
personnel who can respond within one hour of a request for
release of any vehicle to its owner.
• provide adequate visitor parking.
iii. Each tow operator would provide to the City E-911 dispatcher
within 1 hour of arriving at the impound area, a report that

identification number and license number or other
identification number issued by a state agency;
• The name of the person, firm or corporation impounding or
towing the vehicle;
• The date, time, and location of the vehicle' s removal;
• Reason (s) for removal of the vehicle;
• The location where the subject vehicle will be kept; and
• A telephone number, staffed twenty-four (24) hours a day,
which an owner can call to arrange for release of the
vehicle .
d. Cost Analysis for Development Review Team (DRT) services . It is
the intent of the Council to request that the Administration
conduct an analysis of the City' s costs for Development Review
Team services as a first step in cost-justification for potential
fee-setting. After review of the cost analysis, the Council may
wish to reach out to key users of the service for feedback on
advantages and disadvantages of cost-recovery for the use of DRT.
e. Clean Team and Green Team. It is the intent of the Council to
request that the Administration:
i . work with the Downtown Alliance to identify potential grant
16 - 9
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL
TUESDAY, JUNE 14 , 2016
funding opportunities for job programs;
ii . encourage the Alliance to seek funding to ensure the
operation of these programs on an ongoing basis; and
iii . help the Alliance identify City application opportunities
and programs (for example, Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) , CIP, Redevelopment Agency (RDA) , general fund) to
assure that Alliance proposals can be considered in the
context of the full budgets for each of these areas .
Note: It is the Council' s understanding that the base
funding amount needed for the Clean Team in 2016-2017 will be
found within existing operational budgets and that the $25, 000
added in key changes will be specific to the homeless proposal in
the Rio Grande neighborhood.
f. Economic Development Corporation of Utah (EDCU) Contract. It is
the intent of the Council to request that the new Economic
Development Director review the City' s goals with EDCU and
prepare an evaluation of whether the City' s overall economic
development needs would be served best by continuing the contract
or by deploying these resources in another manner. It is the
intent of the Council to request that this evaluation be provided
in conjunction with the Mayor' s Recommended Fiscal Year 2017-2018
Budget.
g. Briefing on Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) Study,
defining success in responding to sexual violence. It is the
intent of the Council to request that once the PERF study is
available, the Administration provide a written report which
highlights the study' s evaluation how the Salt Lake City Police
Department responds to sexual violence.
h. Periodic Study of Public Safety Compensation. It is the intent of
the Council to request that every three years, the Administration
fund an independent study of compensation for public safety
employees in the Police and Fire Departments . The study should
include a rigorous analysis of job complexity before data
collection, using input from discussions with union
representatives to collaboratively determine appropriate
criteria, comparable cities and scope . The Council requests the
Administration include funding for this item in the Fiscal Year
2019 annual budget.
i. Fireworks Air Quality Threshold Ordinance. It is the intent of
the Council that for any fireworks shows organized and funded
100% by City funds be canceled depending on air quality
measurements and public health concerns, similar to firework bans
16 - 10
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL
TUESDAY, JUNE 14 , 2016

addition, the Administration could also urge event organizers to
self-regulate and adjust to prevent impacts to air quality, and
impose regulations or conditions to the award of Signature Event
funds .

on the staffing addition in the Finance Department, the
