Kelsey Lindquist outlined the purpose and vision of the Urban Forest Action Plan
which is to develop a process to archive the goals of Plan Salt Lake. They described four
main principles of the plan (public good, public infrastructure, return on investment, and
equitable distribution of benefits) and the benefits including improvements to air
quality, mitigation of the impacts of urban heat island, promotion of active
transportation and reduced asthma prevalence. Kelsey then provided analysis of the
following items:
•Tree canopy by plan area – the Avenues, East Bench, and Sugar House have
approximately twice the tree canopy of the Northwest and Westside areas; this is
consistent with historic redlining within the City
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL
Tuesday, July 19, 2022

•Surface temperature by plan area – Downtown and Capitol Hill have higher
temperatures
•Redlining and temperature correlation – formally redlined areas of the City have
much higher surface temperatures
• Asthma prevalence – studies have shown lower rates of child asthma in areas with
more trees
The strategies laid out in the draft action plan provide guidance for the City’s goals for
sustainability and equity.
Council Member Petro-Eschler asked if efforts will extend into the Northwest area and
how it would interact with the existing vegetation overlay.
Nick Norris explained that this plan hopes to guide future changes, so a plan that
incorporates the Northwest area could be a follow-up opportunity to this.
Council Member Fowler asked about what implementation and funding looks like and
emphasized the importance of considering housing affordability and equity associated
with the costs of these improvements.
Kelsey Lindquist explained that there currently is not an amount of money needed from
the City. They also explained that the costs of planting and maintaining street trees are
usually paid for by the developers of the land. Tony Gliot also spoke about how this plan
is an investment in the way that the City grows and emphasized that treating the urban
forest as infrastructure provides an advantage as the City plans its future priorities.
Council Member Puy expressed appreciation for the project and noted that there are a
number of facilities controlled by the City, County, and State that could accommodate
more trees. Council Member Puy then asked if there are plans to coordinate with those
entities since they are already actively watering these areas. Kelsey Lindquist noted that
these improvements could be made in ordinance changes for landscaping requirements.
Nick Norris noted that this presentation was a follow up to a resolution previously passed
by the Council and that they would be presenting to the Planning Commission within the
next few months.
9.Resolution: Capital Improvement Program Projects Follow-
up ~ 4:45 p.m.

Minutes:
Ben Luedtke introduced the Capital Improvement Program’s (CIP) funding log and
explained that the log contains 93 items requesting funding and slightly over $27 Million
of funding available from five different funding sources.
Council Members discussed the following items from the CIP funding log:
•Council Member Mano asked if funding added for traffic calming projects is
included in this log or if it is elsewhere.
◦Ben Luedtke explained that the Council allocated $2 Million from the CIP
account to the Livable Streets program. The Transportation division has
developed a plan to prioritize funding in this program, but the Council has
the option to provide policy guidance to the prioritization. They further
clarified that there are individual traffic calming projects listed in the CIP
funding log that could be funded by the Livable Streets program.
◦Council Members Fowler and Dugan discussed adding review of the Livable
Streets program to a future agenda. Council Member Mano asked if the
Administration could allocate that funding without direction from the
Council and whether the Council wants to give policy direction.
◦Council Member Mano clarified that the $3 Million dollars listed in Item 22
(Complete Street) is separate from the funding given to the Livable Streets
program. Ben Luedtke explained that this is correct and clarified that there is
also $3 Million listed for street reconstruction.
◦Council Member Mano mentioned that he appreciated the approach that
Transportation has utilized, but mentioned that other approaches may be
appropriate.
•Council Member Dugan noted that they would like Item 78 (Sunnyside Ave
Pedestrian Safety Improvements) funded with money allocated to Item 22
emphasizing the need for crosswalks in the area.
◦Council Member Wharton agreed that the project is worthwhile, but asked
why the amount requested is so large relative to other similar projects.
◦Jon Larson explained that the items requested in this project have higher
costs because they significantly alter the design of the street.
◦Council Member Mano clarified that this proposal doesn’t add funding but
instead provides guidance that part of the $3 million allocated in Item 22 is
used for the Sunnyside project.
◦Council Member Fowler asked if there are already projects identified that
would use the funding from Item 22 and how many projects would be
covered.
◦Lisa Shaffer explained that the $3 Million comes from the streets
reconstruction bond but there was not any funding specifically carved out for
the Complete Streets Ordinance, so there was a mandate that didn’t have
funding. This $3 million is intended for a complete reconstruction of a street
that is funded by the bond to help with the mandated Complete Streets

Ordinance.
◦Council Member Fowler asked for clarity about the money available from the
street reconstruction bond and whether the $3 Million has flexibility. Lisa
Shaffer answered that there is ambiguity from the bond language and costs
are higher now than they were in the past.
◦Council Member Mano pointed out that the City used this bond to fund a
street reconstruction on 300 West. Jon Larson explained the difficulty of
comparing different policies because of the large amounts of differences and
costs associated with each.
◦Council Member Dugan and Cindy Gust-Jenson asked whether the $3
Million in funds is allocated by Transportation or if it is a legal issue that
requires analysis from the City Attorney.
◦Council Member Mano summarized the discussion in saying that the Council
would like to be involved with policy direction of the various projects
regarding traffic calming. Council Member Fowler expressed interest in
receiving clarity from the City Attorney about the bond language.
•Council Member Mano highlighted Item 92 (Harvey Milk Blvd. Rainbow
Crosswalk) which was not slated to receive funding and asked the Administration
to consider if CIP is the best place to receive funding or if it would be better as a
public art project.
◦Council Member Fowler noted that there was a project for murals in Sugar
House that may also be best suited to go to the Arts Council.
•Council Member Puy highlighted Item 69 (Gateway Triangle Property Park) as a
piece of land owned by the City that the neighborhood would like to turn into a
park. Council Member Puy advocated making this change and requested that the
Council provide funding for this item.
◦Council Member Fowler agreed and advocated adding Park Impact Fees to
fund this project.
•Council Member Petro-Eschler highlighted Item 27 (1000 W Fairpark traffic
Circle) and explained that traffic calming is needed from 1000 West to Redwood
Road. The Council Member expressed interest in elevating traffic calming projects
located in that area.
•Council Member Wharton requested more info about Item 57 (Reopen Dinwoody
Park as a Public Park) for the next Council meeting.
•Council Member Puy highlighted Item 52 (Taufer Park Revamp) and noted the
park’s need for improvements. The Council Member requested that the Council
fund this project and proposed utilizing Park Impact fees to do so.
◦Council Member Dugan and Ben Luedtke clarified that parks impact fees can
only be used to add improvements to parts of the park that are not currently
being used.
◦Kat Maus explained that the request listed is intended for Planning and

Civic Engagement which is not eligible for impact fees.
◦Council Member Fowler mentioned interest in still funding this project from
the General Fund.
•Council Member Fowler asked about putting free menstrual products in male
restrooms in parks
◦Ben Luedtke explained that CIP projects have a $50 thousand minimum and
is not an ideal location for yearly funding.
◦Lisa Shaffer noted that the Public Services Director can make this happen
without additional funding.
•Council Member Fowler highlighted Item 26 (California Avenue Safety
Improvement Study) and asked if this project is being funded by one of the other
traffic calming projects. The Council Member considered using $100 thousand
from the funding for Item 78 to fund this project.
•Council Member Fowler asked if CIP has an overage fund for projects.
◦Ben Luedtke explained that there is a cost over run account which is Item 2
on the CIP funding log.

poll was supported unanimously by Council Members present.
Straw Poll: support for funding Item 78 with a preference of funding it from

is applied
•Removed evaluation guidelines to streamline department procedures
