The department reports to the Council on collaboration opportunities with other entities doing or charged with doing food security or food equity work, such as the Utah State University Extension Service; and 2. The department works actively with those entities to determine and report whether future data gathering, analysis, benchmarking and other outcomes and guideposts of projects like the Community Food Assessment could instead be performed by entities other than the City in order to both continue to build on the foundation that the City has established and relieved the City taxpayers of funding what is currently a regionally beneficial service. in addition, the Council expresses its intent to review the findings of the Sustainability Department on the potential for collaboration with other governmental entities, prior to the Council voting to fund additional food security staffing and projects in the City General Fund Budget, with an eye toward future reliance on the levels of government that are officially charged with and funded to accomplish food security and food equity work. The Council encourages the Administration to proactively work with the State as the 2022 Legislation and on-going funding framework for food security and food equity is implemented, to increase the likelihood that the State structure: • Will be equipped to provide information, data, analysis, and potential strategy support that is relevant and useful locally, as well as State- wide; • Will maximize the effective investment of Federal, State, and County tax dollars to directly enhance the ability of organizations to provide food and services to the public in need of those services; • Will incorporate important local issues in the established formal reporting to the State Legislature. MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL Tuesday, September 20, 2022 10 • That City taxpayers receive maximum benefit from the Federal, State, and County taxes they pay. The Council recognizes that the collaboration will not be successful for Salt Lake City Taxpayers if the provision of localized data is not an established part of the system.
