4.Ordinance:Rezone at 1301 and 1321 South State Street
The Council will accept public comment and consider adopting an ordinance that
would rezone the properties at 1301 and 1321 South State Street.The proposal
would change the properties from CC (Corridor Commercial)to FB-UN2 (Form
Base Urban Neighborhood 2)and amend the table of the zoning ordinance to
include additional land area eligible for additional building height.The applicant
requested the rezone because the FB-UN2 zoning district better aligns with
potential use of the corner lot and potential for a new mixed-use building,which
would replace existing buildings on the parcels.Consideration may be given to
rezoning the property to another zoning district with similar characteristics.Other
sections of Title 21A –Zoning may also be amended as part of this petition.

Jen Colby spoke in support of the project,stated the proposal contrasted the Lincoln
Street Zoning Amendment,the project was an ideal way to add housing to address the
gap,development agreements seemed unenforceable,an ordinance should be required
(not a side agreement),and the City could create a larger price on height to compensate
the City.
Brenda Scheer stated the area was a very important corridor in the City,suggested
changing to the zoning to allow a higher building in this area as it would address high
density housing needs and give the area more character,and the City should empower the
Planning Department to address a maturing City and encourage higher density.
Kathryn Jezek spoke in support of the project and was in favor of developers trying to
address the needs of the area and creating more high density housing.
Alice Betts spoke in support of the project;taller buildings on State Street,and making
the area more modern.
5.Ordinance*:Zoning Amendments at Lincoln Street and 200 South
The Council will accept public comment and consider adopting an ordinance that
would amend the zoning map and Central Community Master Plan for properties
located at 159 South Lincoln Street,949 East,955 East,959 East and 963 East 200
South.The requested rezone would change the properties from R-2 (Single and
Two-Family Residential)to RMF-35 (Moderate Density Multi-Family Residential)
zoning district.The Master Plan amendment would change the properties
from Low Density Residential to Medium Density Residential.The proposal would
allow the applicant more flexibility to develop future multi-family residential
housing than what is currently allowed.Consideration may be given to rezoning
the property to another zoning district with similar characteristics.Other sections
of Title 21A –Zoning may also be amended as part of this petition.Petition No.:

*The Planning Commission forwarded a negative recommendation,therefore an
ordinance has not been drafted.If the Council decides to approve the zone
amendment,an ordinance would be drafted and considered for approval.

Lincoln Street and 200 South.
Katharine Biele expressed understanding of the anxiety of the affordable housing,but
expressed concern regarding the history of the City changing,She noted St.Paul’s
proposed to tear down multiple historic structures in the neighborhood (destroying
character),and encouraged the Council to protect historic neighborhoods.
Jude Rebadue expressed understanding that the structures were aging and rundown,
enjoyed the existing look of the street scape,requested the Council respect the current
zone and keep the area historic.
Gwen Crist spoke in opposition to the rezoning,expressing concern with high density
zoning,stated it was against the City’s master plan and destroyed the history of Salt Lake,
historic homes should be refurbished,and the City should respect the overall character
and take public comment into consideration.
Kelsey Maas,Preservation Utah,expressed appreciation for the local community’s help
to keep the area historic,stated rehabilitation encouraged sustainable practices and
kept the area’s character,high density housing crisis was killing existing housing and
ruining the charm of Salt Lake and potentially increasing the cost of home buying in the
future.
Jen Colby stated rezoning was against the City’s master plan and ordinance.
Monica Hilding spoke in agreement with the Planning report,encouraged the Council
to vote no on the proposal,stated the existing historic homes provided affordable housing
and landlords that do not maintain properties,should not be rewarded by the price
increase that would occur with the rezone.
Esther Hunter,Chair of East Central Community Council,stated the application did not
add housing to the City but instead increased housing costs,the community carried the
highest density in the City with parcels (zoned RMF 35 and 45)nearby that could be
developed instead.
MaryAnn Wright compared the area to that of the Avenues and the travesty of losing
the historic housing stock to high density housing,tearing down homes was not
sustainable,landfills were 40%construction waste (contributing to it would be

negative),planners can direct investors to other locations throughout the City that did not
contain historic buildings.
Polly Hart spoke in opposition to the zoning change stating it was inconsistent with the
master plan and it would reward landlords who have allowed the buildings to deteriorate.

increase parking issues in the area.
Shannon Wells spoke in opposition of the rezoning,residents of the community did not
want high density housing or the character of the community to change.

displacement aid that was offered.
Cindy Cromer spoke to the history of the area and the potential for existing housing in
the neighborhood
Melinda Main Main,Bryant Neighborhood Chair,spoke in opposition to the rezone.
Brenda Scheer,Planning Commission/Fellow of American Institute of Architects,
spoke to the City’s need to update Master Plans that do not reflect the needs or vision of
the residents and high density housing did not match the community’s character.
Sanford Meek spoke in opposition of the rezoning as it was presumptive and did not
seem to warrant the rezone,displacing affordable housing that already existed.
Vincent Gryboski spoke in opposition to the rezoning stating it would negatively impact
the character of the surrounding community and would create a slippery slope that could
continue to destroy historic communities.
Arthur Sandack spoke in opposition to the proposal.
Melissa Hubbell spoke to the historic nature and character of the area;it should be
respected,new buildings would become rundown as the current landlords did not care for
the properties now,parking and traffic problems would increase and place a strain on the
infrastructure.
Scott Andrews spoke to the conversations held at the East Side Community Council that
lead people to believe the properties could not be repaired.
Chiao-ih Hui stated the proposal spoke to the percentage of designated affordable
housing stock,addressed parking,added green space,family oriented housing,would
potentially lower bad air quality in the City,housing prices would be raised,and
approving the rezone would be a strong step in the right direction.
Kathryn Jezek spoke in opposition to the rezone;allowing for changes in older and

rather than demolish an existing single family home.Kelsey Ms.Lindquist stated if the lot was
a double lot the second lot could be developed,an additional unit could be added to the house
internally or as an addition to the home.She added this option would differ from an ADU
because the ordinance criteria would be different and it would not require owner occupancy.
Mayara Lima Ms.Lima explained the ordinance would require contained different criteria
to requirements be applied and there were incentives for both options.**(If this is a
response or addition to what Kelsey just said,I suggest adding this sentence to

district.The Master Plan amendment would change the properties from Low
Density Residential to Medium Density Residential.The proposal would allow the
applicant more flexibility to develop future multi-family residential housing than
what is currently allowed.Consideration may be given to rezoning the property to
another zoning district with similar characteristics.Other sections of Title 21A –
Zoning may also be amended as part of this petition.Petition No.:
PLNPCM2019-00683 and PLNPCM2019-00684
*The Planning Commission forwarded a negative recommendation,therefore an
ordinance has not been drafted.If the Council decides to approve the zone
amendment,an ordinance would be drafted and considered for approval.

RE:Text Amendment:
Public Notice for Permits to Work in the
Public Right of Way
PROJECT TIMELINE:
Written Briefing: Jan 12, 2021
Briefing 2: Feb 9, 2021
Briefing 3 January 11, 2022
Set Date: December 8, 2020
Public Hearing 1: Jan 19, 2021
Public Hearing 2: Feb 1, 2022
Potential Action: TBD
New Information
During the January 11, 2022 work session briefing, the Council didn’t raise any significant concerns or
questions about the updated draft ordinance. Staff said they would reach out to stakeholders and
residents who have expressed interested in these changes.
Additionally, staff met with some stake holders who wanted to better understand the proposed
changes. They expressed concerns about the following:
Would this exclude work that is being done on existing infrastructure?
o An example is hanging wires on existing poles
Does notice only have to go to the adjacent property owners where the work is being done, i.e.
the ground is being disturbed?
o An example is if fiber is being pushed through existing conduit, does everyone along
the route have to be notified, or only the adjacent properties where the work is
disturbing the ground.
In order to address these concerns, they submitted the following change for consideration to the
exemption list:
14.32.036(4)(f):
f. The installation of fiber optic cables to existing utility infrastructure,
including existing poles, wires or conduit.
If this Council is supportive of this change, staff will include in the final draft.
The public hearing will be held on February 1, 2022.
Page | 2
The following information was provide for the January 11, 2022 work session briefing.
It is provided again for background purposes.
The Council will be briefed on proposed amendments to City Code requiring permit applicants for
construction work in the public right of way to provide notice to property owners whose properties are
adjacent to the work that will be performed.
The proposed changes were requested in response to numerous constituent inquiries about the lack of
notice on certain nearby utility construction projects. Much of the right-of-way work that is
performed is governed by State statute and limits the amount of interaction the City has with the
work. However, in balancing the work that is performed and the impact to residents, some additional
noticing steps are proposed to be added to the ordinance.
Originally, the petition was intended to only apply to above-ground work in the public right of way.
However, based on a public hearing on January 12, 2021 and a follow-up work session on February 9,
2021, the Council directed staff to work with the Administration to make the following changes to the
draft ordinance:
Include under-ground work as part of the notification requirements
Notification should be provided before obtaining the permit
o Proof must be part of the permit application
The applicant is responsible to give proof that notice was provided
Outline specific requirements that should be included in notice
o Purpose of construction, contact info, date of construction, etc.
The Administration has forwarded the attached ordinance for the Council to consider. The following
table shows where the requested changes are included in the draft ordinance. Please see the legislative
draft.
Requested Change Page and Line(s)
Include underground work as part of the
notification requirements Page 4, lines 148-150

the permit. Proof must be part of the permit

Specific requirements that should be included in

Page 5, lines 159-175
Page | 3
During the February 9 public hearing, representatives from Verizon spoke, in addition to submitting a
letter outlining their concerns. They stated the current process is efficient and they would prefer to
provide notice to property owners after the permit has been received. The new ordinance would
require them to provide notice before they obtain a permit. Their concerns are outlined below on
pages 3-4.
The revised draft has not been distributed for public comment yet. Staff wanted to check in with the
Council Members to make sure the updated version meets the Council’s intent. If it does, staff
recommends setting a public hearing for February. Staff will then send the revised ordinance to
stakeholders for comment.
Policy Questions
1. The draft ordinance requires notification for work located below ground and behind the curb
to adjacent properties on the same side of the public right of way, while notice for work below
ground and in the paved section of the public way will be required for both sides of the public
right of way.
The Council may wish to ask the administration why this difference is
needed. Would it be appropriate to notice both sides of the street, even
when work is done behind the curb and gutter?
2. The draft ordinance says the applicant is responsible for delivering the public notice unless
otherwise determined by the City Engineer.
The Council may wish to ask the Administration what situation are
envisioned that the applicant may not be the one responsible for
delivering the public notice.
The following information was provide for the February 9, 2021 work session briefing.
It is provided again for background purposes.
PUBLIC HEARING SUMMARY
During the public hearing members of the public spoke about the proposed changes and asked some
questions, Additionally, a letter from Verizon was submitted pertaining to the proposed change.
A few individuals requested the Council require public notice for below ground work as well. Some
also said current contractors are not doing a good job of restoring property to the way it was before the
work happened.
Verizon representatives spoke during the public hearing and also submitted a letter, outlining their
concerns. They stated the current process is efficient and they would prefer to provide notice to
property owners after the permit has been received. The new ordinance would require them to provide
notice before they obtain a permit.
Council staff met with staff from CAN and the Attorney’s Office to go over the comments and
formulate the following responses.
1. Request to apply the notification requirement to work “below ground” as well.
Page | 4
Administrative staff said this is obviously possible, but it will likely require an increase
in staff and costs for the city to monitor and / or respond to concerns about projects.
The proposed change before the Council would only require public notice to adjacent
property owners for above ground work – typically, this type of work is limited to a few
properties that are near the above ground poles/facilities.
Underground work can go for hundreds of yards (larger/longer projects would be
miles). It would take more staff to verify and ensure the public notices were properly
provided.
Administrative staff have prepared some very preliminary estimates for cost/staffing
impact to the City.
They will be available during the briefing to respond to questions the Council may have
about potential cost of notifying for below ground work.
2. Reponses to Verizon’s Letter
Verizon’s request: Allow permit holders to post notice after the permit is obtained.
Prefer to submit template with permit application and actual notice is provided 48-72
hours before work commences.
Administration response:
o CAN staff said the current process has not been working and that is the reason
for the proposed changes. The goal is to get the notifications out sooner, so the
public is aware of the work before the permit is issued.
o The new process would require the permit holder to submit evidence that the
notice was provided to adjacent property owners. They then submit that as part
of their permit application. The work would typically commence about 2-3
weeks later.
Verizon’s request: Clarify type of evidence that is required to demonstrate applicant
has satisfied notification requirement.
Administration response:
o CAN staff said notice such as a door hangar, with timestamped photos is one
way to satisfy this requirement.
o The goal is to avoid situations where a piece of paper is placed on a doorstep
that can easily be blown away.
Verizon’s request: Adopt definition of adjacent owner currently in notification
process.
Administration response:
o CAN staff stated this could be clarified.
Verizon’s request: Clarify purpose of the notice and what is to be included in the
description of the purpose of construction.
Administration response:
o CAN staff has stated they can help provide examples of the type of language
they that should be on the notice.
o They can do this to help ensure consistency for all permit holders.
Verizon’s request: Clarify definition of above ground work; does it include
excavation to run conduit or lay fiber.
Administration response:
Page | 5
o CAN staff has stated this type of work applies to facilities that are permanently
above ground or on poles or anything that would fall under the master license
agreement for small cells.
o Typically, this type of work would also include trenching for conduit.
Verizon’s request: Any other info reasonably required by City engineer is too broad
Administration response:
o CAN staff stated this is meant to be specific to notice requirements. They can
provide some language to clarify that.
POLICY QUESTIONS
1. Some Council Members have expressed interest to require more public notice for below
ground work.
Does the Council want to adopt these proposed changes and also adopt a legislative
action asking the Administration to come back with a proposal for increased public
outreach for underground work in the public right of way?
o This may include identifying options to require contractors to do the outreach
and an option for the city to be responsible for providing the public notice
2. The Council may want to ask about the description of information that would be suggested /
requested for the notice. For example, location, description, duration of type of work; contact
information for the contractor and City, etc.?
3. The Council may wish to ask what the change in the timeline for permit holders would be and
how the Administration can notify potential applicants of the changes.
The following information was provide for the January 19 public hearing. It is
provided again for background purposes.
WORK SESSION SUMMARY
This item was on the January 12 agenda as a written briefing. Council Members did not raise any
concerns or ask staff questions about the proposed changes.
The public hearing is scheduled for January 19.
The following information was provide for the January 12 work session briefing. It is
provided again for background purposes.
ISSUE AT-A-GLANCE
The Council will be briefed on proposed amendments to City code requiring permit holders to provide
notice to property owners whose properties are adjacent to the above groundwork that will be
performed in the public way.
The proposed changes were requested in response to numerous constituent inquiries about the lack of
notice to adjacent property owners. Much of the right-of-way work that is performed is governed by
State statute and limits the amount of interaction the City has with the work. However, in balancing
the work that is performed and the impact to residents, some additional noticing steps are being
added to the ordinance.
Page | 6
The key changes would require the franchise holder/applicant to provide the following:
Evidence that they provided notice to all property owners whose properties are adjacent to the
portion of the public way where the work is being performed.
Notice that includes the name of the permit holder performing the construction, the purpose of
the construction, and a contact phone number and email for the permit holder.
Evidence shall be satisfactory to the City Engineer that all adjacent property owners have
received notice.
Related text cleanups to match current practice.
Since work in the public right of way is overseen by the City’s Engineering Division, they have
reviewed the ordinance in collaboration with the Attorney’s Office. Engineering has expressed their
support for these proposed changes.
Administrative staff have noted the contractor will have to give notice of the construction prior to
submitting an application for a permit to Engineering. Once Engineering approves the permit, the
contractor may move forward with construction.
PUBLIC PROCESS
Engineering provided Council Staff a list of the companies who do much of the work in the public right
of way. Council staff emailed this group to let them know about the proposed changes, and the dates of
the briefing and public hearing.
POLICY QUESTIONS
1. For the properties that would be included in the notification, the Council may wish to consider
expanding the requirement beyond the proposal of adjacent property owners.
2. If the Council has questions about the timing of the when the notice must be given to when the
permit is granted, the Council may wish to ask the administration to explain the process for
when the notice must be given before receiving the permit for construction.
3. If it would be helpful, the Council may wish to ask the Attorney’s office or Administration
representative to provide a quick review on the types of things the City is able to require or
request versus items that are monitored or regulated by the State.
4. The Council may also ask Engineering to provide a description of their typical interaction with
the permit holders.
5. The Council may wish to raise any other issues that have been raised by constituents.
6. The Council may wish to ask about options to address issues when the noticing requirements
are not followed.

TO:City Council Members
FROM: Ben Luedtke, Sylvia Richards,
Allison Rowland
Budget and Policy Analysts
DATE:February 1, 2022
RE: Budget Amendment Number Six FY2022
________________________________________________________________________________
Budget Amendment Number Six includes thirty-five proposed amendments and requested changes to seven funds.
Total expenditures coming from fund balance are $2,701,648. The Council may wish to note that the
Administration is proposing to add sixteen ongoing FTE’s using Fund Balance, and those positions would need to
be added to the upcoming annual budget. If all the items are adopted as proposed, then Fund Balance would be
$29,721,935 or 21.29% above the 13% minimum target established by the Council in FY2020.
State law was updated and set a maximum General Fund Balance limit of 35%. The increase is a result of higher-
than-expected revenues and unspent funds dropping to Fund Balance at the end of FY2021. The Finance
Department will be available at the briefing to provide a more detailed revenues update as summarized in the table
later in this report.
Inflation Impacts for Upcoming FY2023 Annual Budget
Although there are positive revenue and fund balance reports, staff wanted to mention that there will likely be
several inflationary impacts that may offset that positive news. Some departments have mentioned they expect
significant cost increases for existing services and contract renewals as part of the upcoming FY2023 annual budget.
For example, item A-13 in this budget amendment represents a 36% budget increase for fuel purchases. In addition,
the CIP Cost Overrun Account is less able to offset project cost increases in response to pandemic-related
construction supplies inflation so either project scopes are reduced, or additional funding may be needed. The
FY2022 annual budget included significant use of one-time funding for ongoing expenses which will need to have
ongoing revenue identified in future fiscal years to continue. The Council may wish to consider if some
proposed items in this budget amendment would be better evaluated during the annual budget
with the full context of the City’s competing needs.
Project Timeline:
Set Date: February 1, 2022
1st Briefing: February 1, 2022
2nd Briefing: Feb. 8 or 15 (if needed)
Public Hearing: February 15, 2022

Revenue for FY2022 Budget Adjustments
The following chart shows a current projection of General Fund Revenue for Fiscal Year 2022. The Finance
Department will be available at the briefing to review individual revenue line-item changes.
According to the Administration, projections for fiscal year 2021 were better than expected, while projections for
fiscal year 2022 continue to trend above budget. Sales tax for the first quarter was well above budget and the prior
year. Franchise tax is lagging below budget from a decrease in water franchise ($250,000) and telephone
($150,000) franchise taxes.
Other notable increases include licenses which are above budget driven by increases in airport parking taxes and
innkeepers’ tax. Permits remain very strong with increases in plan check fees and building permits. Field
reservations, land leases and building leases are leading to an increase in Charges, Fees and Rentals. Notable
decreases include a decrease in moving violations and justice court fines. Fire reimbursement from the airport is
also below budget.
Page | 3
Fund Balance
The Administration’s chart below shows the current General Fund Balance figures.
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) has confirmed amounts that lapsed to General Fund Balance
at the end of Fiscal Year 2021. If all items are approved as proposed by the Administration, then combined General
Fund Balance would be 21.29% or $29,721,935 above the 13% minimum target.
Impact Fees Update
The Administration provided a summary of impact fee tracking, details on refunding amounts and dates and lists of
unfinished projects with impact fee funding. The information is current as of December 13, 2021. As a result, the
City is on-track with impact fee budgeting to have no refunds during all FY2022. The Administration reports work
is nearing completion to update the fire and parks sections of the impact fee plan. The transportation section was
updated last year. Eligible projects for police impact fees are being identified.

Section A: New Items
(note: to expedite the processing of this staff report, staff has included the Administration’s descriptions from the
transmittal for some of these items)
A-1: Suazo Business Center Membership ($25,000 from General Fund Balance)
This $25,000 would fund an annual membership for the Suazo Business Center, resulting in an ongoing
partnership with an organization that provides technical support for businesses owned by Latinx residents and
members of other underrepresented groups. The Center's location on the West Side facilitates access for area
residents, and it was able to expand its services last year because of $25,000 that the Council approved in FY2021
Budget Amendment #2. At the time, one-time federal CARES Act funding was available to cover this amount for
one year, but this request is for ongoing City general fund support.
Policy Questions:
Membership Level – The Council may wish to ask the Administration is there are other membership levels
available for the City.
Evaluate During Upcoming Annual Budget – The Council may wish to clarify with the Administration
whether this item could be addressed in the upcoming annual budget rather than in a budget
amendment. Would the Council prefer to address this in the annual budget?
A-2: Move Grants Manager from ARPA to General Fund ($66,000 from General Fund Balance)
In the FY2022 annual budget the Council approved one Grants Manager FTE in the Finance Department using
ARPA funding assuming the final guidance from the U.S. Treasury allowed such a use. The Finance Department has
determined the position is not a qualified use and requests the Council shift the position to the General Fund. The
position will continue to assist with tracking, reporting and compliance of ARPA funding as well as other grants.
The City has seen an increase in grant applications to approximately 100 in the last two fiscal years. The City is on
track for a similar number of grants in FY2022. The bipartisan infrastructure bill recently passed in Congress and
signed by the President increases funding opportunities over the next several years and could also result in more
grant applications.
A-3: Healthcare Innovation Branding Biohive ($50,000 from General Fund Balance)
Council staff asked DED why another $50,000 was needed after the same amount, also identified as one-time, was
approved in Budget Amendment #4 of FY2021, and what deliverables would result from this amount of spending.
The Department’s response did not address this specific question about the additional funding. The Department has
provided general information about the goals of the program (see Attachment 1).
Policy Questions:
Ongoing or One-time Need – The Council may wish to clarify with the Administration if this is in fact more
of an ongoing need, and if so whether it should be addressed in the upcoming annual budget rather than as
sequential budget amendment requests.
Status of Earlier $50,000 – The Council may wish to ask the Department if funds from FY2021 are fully
spent or encumbered, and what data was collected because of the previous expenditure.
A-4: Fix the Bricks Program and FTE Transfer from Fire Department to Community and
Neighborhoods Department (Budget Neutral)
This item would transfer an Office Technician II FTE and an hourly Office Technician from the Emergency Division
within the Fire Department to the Housing Stability Division within the CAN Department. No budget impact would
be incurred as the positions already exist. Note that both positions are currently vacant. Ongoing administration of
the FEMA grant which funds Fix the Bricks and the two positions would also transfer to the CAN Department.
The Housing Stability Division administers several other ongoing Federal grants, many from the U.S. HUD
Department, and could apply those existing skillsets to this FEMA grant. The Division’s housing rehabilitation
employees have also assisted Fix the Bricks operations in the past such as environmental reviews, floodplains,
Page | 5
historic preservation, noise abatement and control, etc. There may be benefits of combining Fix the Bricks with the
housing rehabilitation programs that offer small and medium sized repairs to qualified low- and moderate-income
homeowners. The two Fix the Bricks employees would be supervised by the Housing Project Manager that also
oversees the housing rehabilitation program.
Demand has exceeded program capacity since launching several years ago. Last year an engineering firm was
contracted with for home inspection and repair approvals which is speeding up that step of the process. Contractors
must be on the approved list to submit seismic improvement project bids. A training program for contractors is
being developed to try and get more added to the approved list. Issues related to supply chains and job vacancies
are also reported to be slowing the pace of contractor’s work.
The multiple emergencies of the past two years and ongoing pandemic have reduced Emergency Management
staff’s ability to work on Fix the Bricks.
Policy Questions:
Resources to Increase Pace of Seismic Improvements – The Council may wish to ask the Administration
what additional resources, staffing and/or program changes could decrease wait times for residents.
FEMA’s Use of Funding Timeliness Expectations – The Council may wish to ask the Administration if
FEMA has any timeliness requirements or expectations about the use of grant funds awarded to the City.
The program recently completed using funding from 2017.
Geographic Equity – The Council may wish to discuss with the Administration potential changes to improve
geographic equity of program participants such as helping low- and moderate-income residents cover the
25% cost share, using a sliding scale based on income, and assistance navigating funding options (historic
tax credits, grants, local community organizations, etc.). The Council may also wish to ask if information is
available on the current distribution of participants for completed projects and those on the waiting list.
A-5: Additional Police Sergeant for Special Victims Unit ($135,971 from General Fund Balance)
This request would create a second sergeant for the Special Victims Units (SVU) in the Police Department and
provide funding for a vehicle, computer, and other equipment. The current sergeant supervises 12 detectives which
is more than best practice and raises span of control issues. The SVU caseload has increased in recent years. A
major driver of the growing caseload is sexual assault evidence kit DNA matches in the national database. A DNA
match can provide suspect identification and other new information for investigation. In 2014 and 2015 over 700
sexual assault evidence kits from cold cases were submitted to the State Crime Lab for processing. The Police
Department reports over 400 DNA matches have been identified which provides new leads to investigate.
If the second sergeant is approved, then the SVU would designate a team focused on sex crimes investigations
including the new DNA leads from the older sexual assault evidence kits. This is expected to improve case
investigations and the Department’s ability to process the cold cases.
The Department reports similar workload and span of control issues are being experienced for victim advocates
working with the SVU. A grant funded advocate was embedded in the SVU to directly work with detectives
investigating cold cases. However, the grant funding ends September 2022. Continuing the position by using
General Fund dollars could be a request in the FY2023 annual budget. The Department reports one or two more
SVU detectives may also be requested given the high number of DNA matches from sexual assault evidence kits.
Policy Question:
Resources to Increase Pace of Cold Case Investigations – The Council may wish to ask the Administration
what resources in addition to SVU police officers could improve the pace of cold case investigations. For
example, are there upstream or downstream resources that could help crime lab evidence processing,
victim advocates, the justice court or prosecutor’s office?
Evaluate During Upcoming Annual Budget – The Council may wish to ask if this position should be
considered in the context of the annual budget, or if the need is more immediate/urgent because of the
caseload?
Page | 6
A-6: Police Access Control Upgrade and Support ($214,538 from General Fund Balance)
This request would replace the original security access control system at the Public Safety Building which was
installed nine years ago. The funding includes $113,198 for hardware (controllers, readers, and server), $56,340 for
installation and ongoing maintenance and support estimated at $45,000 annually. The new system allows the
building to continue meeting Federal and State security compliance rules.
The hardware includes a new server that could act as the backbone for a new standard security system across all city
facilities. The approach was developed by IMS, Facilities and Engineering. The Police Department would be the first
to move to the new system. Additional funding may be needed to transfer other departments and facilities into the
new system
A-7: Fireworks Budget ($25,000 from General Fund Balance)
This request would fund two fireworks shows in July 2022: one at Jordan Park on Independence Day, July 4th, and
another at Liberty Park on Pioneer Day, July 24th. Funding and contracts for the two shows are typically needed in
the spring to ensure vendor availability. The Administration states the shows could be cancelled based on certain
conditions such as an air quality index of 100+ and severe drought. The Council removed funding for the shows in
the FY2022 annual budget because of the ongoing drought. At the time some Council Members expressed concern
about fireworks in general, that they are always bad for air quality. Some current Council Members have expressed
similar concerns.
Policy Question:
Alternative Celebration Options – The Council may wish to discuss alternative options to celebrate the two
July holidays such as festivals, laser & light shows, drone shows, etc.
A-8: This item will be held as a future briefing about the City’s efforts to diversify public safety
response options
A-9: Arts Council Staff Increase of 3 FTEs ($175,000 from General Fund Balance)
The Administration indicates that the Arts Council needs additional staff support to handle current workload as
well as the duties/role of the Mayor’s Advisor on Arts and Culture which was shifted from the Mayor’s Office to the
Arts Council. A total of three (3) FTEs are being requested: two (2) Arts Council Program Coordinators and one (1)
Arts Council Program Manager. The Council may wish to note that these same positions were initially proposed in
the last annual budget process requesting the use of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) monies to fund the
positions, however, these positions did not qualify for ARPA funds, and the Council did not prioritize them for
funding with General Fund dollars when balancing the budget before adoption. The Administration is requesting
that these positions be funded now using fund balance – six months each for two program coordinators and six
months for one program manager.
The job descriptions are as follows:
Arts Council Program Coordinators (Annual salary and benefits $94,383 – Six months is $47,192)
The incumbents would coordinate, organize, and implement Arts Council & Economic Development-related
programs and services; implement marketing efforts, collaborate on grant writing and reporting; provide
information and technical assistance as needed to artists, arts organizations, and the public; and track income and
expenses.
Arts Council Program Manager (Annual salary and benefits $121,116 – Six months is $60,558)
The incumbent would direct one or more major program and initiative(s) within the City’s Department of Economic
Development, including arts and culture programming, small business and entrepreneurship support, and
recruitment and retention activities. Activities would include being responsible for the department programs,
working with community members, advisory boards, and project management with the end goal to support the
City’s arts, economic and equity master plan goals.
Policy Questions:
Work for the Non-profit and/or the City – The Council may wish to ask whether the new staff members will
perform work that relates to the non-profit organization, or whether the work will be directly for Salt Lake
City.
Page | 7
Evaluate During Upcoming Annual Budget – The Council may wish to discuss if this proposal would be
better evaluated during the annual budget with the full context of the City’s competing needs. The FY2022
annual budget tentatively included using ARPA funding for three new Arts Council FTEs, but U.S. Treasury
guidance determined those positions were an ineligible use. The Administration shared the following
context regarding this policy question:
1. “ZAP Grant Funding: Since 2016, the Arts Council’s award from Salt Lake County Zoo, Arts, and Parks
(ZAP) Tier I grant funding has averaged $360,000 annually, based on qualifying programming and
operating expenses. This prestigious grant, of which the Arts Council is the only local Arts Agency within
among only 22 organizations countywide, is a continuing opportunity to leverage funds outside the City.
Due to strategic shifts in programming in 2018, the Arts Council no longer incurs the $1.5 to 2 million
dollars cost of in-house expenses to the Twilight Concert Series. A natural consequence of this shift is that
the annual ZAP award is calculated based on three years of qualifying expenditures; thus, the
organization’s qualifying expenditures have been significantly decreasing with compounding effects. The
Arts Council projects over $175,000 in losses by 2022. The additional staffing costs will qualify as
expenditures to begin to mitigate and stabilize this award in the next three years (although it will not
reach its previous levels due to lower expenditures). So, less expenditures lead to a lesser grant award. It
should be noted that the ZAP grant revenue losses will still occur and compound despite new staffing
expenditures mitigating the stabilization of this critical funding. In preparation for FY23 the staff and
board are currently considering tiered approaches and scenarios to programmatic cuts while mitigating
service losses to the arts community during one of the hardest hit industries through the COVID-19
pandemic.
2. Programmatic & Mayoral goal execution and staffing capacity: Since 2013, the Arts Council has been
a staff of six full-time City employees (5 in 2011). Since that time significant changes to programming
scope, budget, and priorities/values-and a rapidly growing city-have occurred with no increases to full-
time support. Over the years, there have been increases to program funds and the grants budget without
additional staffing support. Major impacts include our ability to deliver program services namely in
Public Art and the new maintenance fund, all public programs such as Living Traditions Presents, City
Arts Grants; and new initiatives of the City, and the Mayor’s Plan-all outside the scope of baseline
programs and functions of our Local Arts Agency designation.
Additionally, in 2020 the full-time policy role of Mayor’s Advisor on Arts & Culture was eliminated from
the Mayor’s Office and that role condensed to the Arts Division Executive Director. This has resulted in
expanded Citywide and external communications, projects, policy, and consultation (internal and
external) asked of the Executive Director as a result, and the incorporation of the management of the
Cultural Core project into the Arts Council. For the Arts Council to continue its development efforts (which
have shown measurable increases in recent years) to begin to mitigate the ZAP losses, and leverage value
to the City, capacity needs to exist to staff the above efforts.
[If the Council were to wait to fund the positions during the annual budget process], the above
considerations would just be further postponed and continue the strains mentioned. The Arts Council has
requested staffing at the Department since FY21 to mitigate these challenges. It has been in the Mayors
Plan to “Stabilize the Structure and Funding of the Arts Council” in Plans 2020-2022. While our team is
passionate and committed, we have experienced staff retention and morale issues related to high volumes
of work. Retaining the incredible talent that we currently have is of the utmost importance for service
continuity to the arts community.”
A-10: Allen Park CIP Rescope (Budget Neutral to Swap Funding Sources)
In FY2021 CIP, the Council approved $450,000 of recaptured bond funds to create an Adaptive Reuse and
Activation Plan for Allen Park. In FY2022 CIP, the Council approved $420,000 of parks impact fees for historic
preservation and renovation work at 11 structures in the park and capital improvements like pedestrian stairway
connections and new amenities. The funding includes analysis, cost estimates and construction ready designs.
Additional funding requests for construction would come to the Council in future budget openings.
Page | 8
This request is to rescope the FY2022 CIP funding of $420,000 to be used on the Adaptive Reuse and Activation
Plan instead of the pre-construction work for structure renovations and capital improvements. This change
accommodates legal limitations that bond funds may not be spent on the plan. The FY2021 CIP funding of
$450,000 would be used for the pre-construction work instead of developing the Reuse Plan. The total funding
available for Allen Park would not change.
The Parks and Public Lands Department provided the below breakdown of how the bond funds have been spent so
far. $284,253 of bond funds remain and need to be spent quickly to comply with spending deadlines. The remaining
bond funds are anticipated to be fully spent on waterline replacements, water meter replacements and roof
upgrades. Construction schedules estimate the work could be completed over the coming summer months.
-$75,000 for Assets & Structures Inventory & Documentation/Assessments of Historic Features
-$33,993 for Roof Stabilization & Leak Repair, George Allen Home
-$31,433 for Construction Documents for Water Line / Water Meter Replacement & Irrigation Upgrade
-$11,560 for Installation of Power Boxes for Site Power / Event Infrastructure
-$11,505 for Waste and Hazardous Materials Removal from Historic Residences
-$2,256 for Engineering fees charged for review of construction documents
A-11: Executive Assistant in the Mayor’s Office ($39,792 from General Fund Balance)
This item would add one executive assistant FTE to the Mayor’s Office. The requested funding is for five months.
The fully loaded annual cost is estimated at $95,501 and would be added to the FY2023 annual budget.
A-12: Citywide Equity Study ($90,000 from General Fund Balance)
The Council approved $100,000 for this study in Budget Amendment #4 of FY2020. This additional funding adds
several tasks to the study scope:
-Task 1. Additional project coordination and management for 2022.
-Task 2. Documentation and mapping of current community engagement processes at the City, including
those spearheaded by the Civic Engagement Team and those led by departments.
-Task 3. Review of current City data on how/whether constituents receive information or provide feedback.
-Task 4. Review of representation of different constituencies on City advisory boards and other groups.
-Task 4. Interviews, virtual workshops, focus groups and other discussions with City staff and community
leaders.
-Task 5. Review of the literature concerning good practices for public sector communication and
engagement with hard-to-reach populations.
-Task 6. Case studies of good practices employed by state or local governments.
-Task 7. Recommendations for solidifying and strengthening current efforts and creating new avenues for
outreach and engagement.
-Task 8. Piloting new community engagement strategies.
-Task 9. Report and three presentations.
A-13: Fuel Cost Increases ($938,076 to Fleet Fund from Several Sources)
Fuel inflation in the market has caused costs to exceed the FY2022 Fleet Fund budget for fuel. This item will
increase the fuel budget to be enough to reach the end of the fiscal year. The FY2022 budget has $2.6 for fuel
purchases which would be increased 36% to $3.5 million. Council staff requested a funding source breakdown for
the additional budget. The information was not available at the time of publishing this staff report.
A-14: COVID Personal Protective Equipment ($200,000 from General Fund Balance)
The City’s supply of masks and other PPE to combat COVID is depleting. This request is for an additional $200,000
to purchase additional supplies to keep citizens, visitors, and employees safe in City owned buildings. The new
masks will be medical grade and tests will also be procured.
Section B: Grants for Existing Staff Resources Section
B-1: ARPA Authorized HUD HOME Grant Funding for Admin and Planning Funds ($176,660 from
HOME-ARPA Grant)
Page | 9
HUD has authorized the City to access 5% ($176,659.75) of admin and planning funds of the City's 2021 HUD
HOME-ARPA award (total award, $3,533.195). HOME-ARPA funds are designated for housing opportunities for
individuals experiencing homelessness. These admin and planning funds will facilitate existing City staff and
expenses related to the HUD-required HOME-ARPA Community Assessment. The Community Assessment will
identify needs and opportunities to help direct the HOME-ARPA funds.
It’s important to note that the total award is one-time additional grant funding from HUD. This is separate from the
annual HOME grant funding the City receives. After HUD reviews and approves the Community Assessment, the
Council would need to adopt a substantial amendment to the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan for the City to accept
and be able to use the funding.
Housing Stability staff will provide the Council with a quick overview of this one-time funding, the process and
timeline.
Policy Question:
Community Needs for this Funding – The Council may wish to discuss with the Administration what
community needs should be prioritized for this funding and any recommendations for stakeholders to be
included in developing the Community Assessment.
Section C: Grants for New Staff Resources Section
(None)
Section D: Housekeeping
D-1: Interest Income on Bonding ($64,140 and $80,977 from CIP Fund)
The General Obligation Bonds, Series 2019A, were issued in October 2019 for the purpose of funding the
reconstruction of City streets. The total par amount of the bonds issued were $17,540,000. At the time the bonds
were issued the proceeds were deposited with the Trustee. Since then, the unspent bond proceeds have been
earning interest. This amendment will adjust the budget to reflect the actual proceeds available including
accumulated interest from October 2020 through August 2021. The General Obligation Bonds, Series 2020, were
issued in September 2020 for the purpose of funding the reconstruction of City streets. The total par amount of the
bonds issued were $17,745,000. At the time the bonds were issued the proceeds were deposited with the Trustee.
Since then, the unspent bond proceeds have been earning interest. This amendment will adjust the budget to reflect
the actual proceeds available including accumulated interest from February 2021 through August 2021.
D-2: WITHDRAWN
D-3: Reimburse Misc. Grants for Unreimbursed HUD HOPWA Funds ($32,495 from Bank Pool
Clearing Account)
Finance discovered that $32,494.55 was paid out to a subgrantee in 2017, but never reimbursed from HUD for
HOPWA Cost Center 7261611. The HUD reimbursement deadline of three years has passed for these funds. Housing
Stability has identified unrestricted funds from 7800404 Bank Pool Clearing to make the City whole. This budget
amendment will facilitate the transfer of funds from a 78 Fund Class to a 72 Fund Class.
The Bank Pool Clearing account is used for housing related expenses like credit and title reports, mortgage
insurance premiums, and loan fees. The Finance Department worked with the Housing Stability Division to change
policies, procedures and staff training to avoid the City losing out on missed reimbursements in the future.
D-4: Treasury ERAP 1 Reallocated Funds ($3 million from Miscellaneous Grant Fund)
The Treasury has reallocated unspent Emergency Rent Assistance Program (ERAP) 1 funds set-aside for the State of
Utah by low-performing cities and made these funds available to apply for by high-performing cities, such as Salt
Lake City. These reallocated funds are for direct client assistance only. To administer Salt Lake City’s initial ERAP 1
award, the City contracted with the State of Utah, Department of Workforce Services’ (DWS) online Utah Rent
Relief application portal, https://rentrelief.utah.gov/. Coordinating with DWS, Housing Stability staff have
determined that Salt Lake City could apply for $3,000,000 in reallocated ERAP 1. These funds will further assist
Salt Lake City residents with deposit, rent, utilities, rent arrears, and utility arrears, again utilizing the Utah Rent
Page | 10
Relief application portal. Note: This new request is separate from, and does not affect, the City’s other Treasury
ERAP 1 ($6,067,033) and ERAP 2 ($4,800,559.40) awards. See attached funding agreement. (Note: 7262150-
Treasury ERA Direct Financial Assistance, is the current Cost Center for ERAP 1 Direct Client Assistance)
Nearly all of the $6 million from ERAP 1 has been spent with some outstanding invoices pending processing. The
deadline to spend ERAP 1 funds is September 30, 2022. The deadline to spend ERAP 2 funds is September 30,
2025. If D-4 and D-5 are approved as requested, then the City’s total funding from ERAP would be $13,867,632.
D-5: Treasury ERAP 2 Reallocated Funds ($2,880,366 from Miscellaneous Grant Fund)
This budget amendment is to recognize the City's second allocation of the American Rescue Plan Act, Treasury
Emergency Rent Assistance (ERAP) 2 funds, in the amount of $2,880,335.64, for the purpose of addressing
housing stability for Salt Lake City residents. See attached funding agreement. The City approved the first allocation
of the ERAP 2 funds in BA1 of FY 21-22, in the amount of $1,920,233.76. The City's total ERAP 2 award is
$4,800,599.40. BA1 included the following budget items for those funds: Direct Client Assistance $1,632,199, and
Community Partner Admin $288,034.76. To administer Salt Lake City’s first and second allocations of ERAP 2, the
City will contract with the State of Utah, Department of Workforce Services’ (DWS) online Utah Rent Relief
application portal, https://rentrelief.utah.gov/.
The City has previously and successfully contracted with DWS for the City’s ERAP 1 funds. This budget amendment
aligns with Treasury guidance on eligible activities and allowable percentage amounts for ERPA 2. In addition to
further supporting Direct Client Assistance (deposits, rent, utilities, rent arrears, and utility arrears), and the
associated Community Partner Admin to facilitate the proper distribution of these funds, Housing Stability is
requesting City Admin to support one (1) FTE, and funds to support Housing Stability services. Re: the one (1) FTE:
Currently, the City’s ERAP 1 and 2 funds are being administered by 1 PTE. This position is necessary to facilitate the
City administration, coordination, and compliance monitoring. This position was pervious approved by Council
with ERAP 1 funding. Since then, the administration of these funds has demonstrated that a FTE is required. This
one (1) requested position would be Grade 26, Community Development Grant Specialist, fully loaded for 39
months. (April 2022 - Jun 2025, at $34.50 an hour [$215,280], plus benefits [$53,820]. Total $269,100.) This
position would be fully funded by ERAP funding and would sunset when funding expires. Re: Housing Stability
services: According to the Treasury, eligible “Housing Stability” services include: Case management, Eviction
prevention, Eviction diversion programs, Mediation between landlords and tenants, Housing counseling, Fair
housing counseling, Housing navigators or promotors that help households access ERA programs or find housing,
Housing-related services for survivors of domestic abuse or human trafficking, Legal services or attorney’s fees
related to eviction proceedings and maintaining housing stability, Specialized services for individuals with
disabilities or seniors that support their ability to access or maintain housing. A public competitive process would
receive applications from providers for eligible Housing Stability services.
Staff note: after transmittal updated numbers confirmed the total amount should actually be $41 less than the
originally requested budget. This will be adjusted for the Council’s final adoption vote.
D-6: Annex Building Renovation – Moving Funds from Misc. Grants to CIP Fund ($500,000 from
Miscellaneous Grant Fund)
In Budget Amendment #2, the Council added an item totaling $500,000 in grant funding to be used for Annex
Building Renovations. This amount was approved within the Miscellaneous Grants Fund. Since the associated
annex building renovation should be done through CIP, the budget needs to be moved.
D-7: State Infrastructure Bank (SIB) Loan ($7 million from Debt Service Fund)
On December 6, 2021, the City and the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) entered into a loan agreement
which will be used to finance a portion of a neighborhood parking structure between 400 West and 500 West and
600 South and 700 South. The loan is expected to be repaid with funds allocated to the City by H.B. 244 (2021). The
City has received funds for the State Infrastructure Bank (SIB) Loan. This amendment creates the revenue budget
for the receipt of loan proceeds and the expenditure budget to disburse the proceeds for the project.
Section E: Grants Requiring No New Staff Resources
E-1: UDOT Railroad Safety Grant ($86,750 from CIP Fund)
The Dept. of Community & Neighborhood, Division of Engineering applied for and received $86,750 for the Utah
Railroad Safety Grant 2021 (round 1) for safety improvements to the railroad crossing at 4900 West 700 South.
Page | 11
Planned safety improvements include widening the roadway, improving sight distance by raising the street grade
approach, adding sidewalk on the south side of the crossing, adding bike lanes, and replacing the railroad crossing
signals. The funding plan is to request an additional $260,250 in the Utah Railroad Safety Grant 2021 Round 2
competition to complete the funding package for the project. A Public hearing was held 7/5/21.
E-2: UDOT Railroad Safety Grant, Round 2 ($93,750 from CIP Fund)
The Dept. of Community & Neighborhood, Division of Engineering applied for and received $93,750 for the Utah
Railroad Safety Grant 2021 (round 2) for safety improvements to the railroad crossing at 4900 West 700 South.
Planned safety improvements include widening the roadway, improving sight distance by raising the street grade
approach, adding sidewalk on the south side of the crossing, adding bike lanes, and replacing the railroad crossing

E-3: Utah Department of Transportation, 600/700 N Frequent Transit Network Improvement Grant
($228,000 from CIP Fund)
The Dept. of Community & Neighborhood, Division of Engineering applied for and received $93,750 for the Utah
Railroad Safety Grant 2021 (round 2) for safety improvements to the railroad crossing at 4900 West 700 South.
Planned safety improvements include widening the roadway, improving sight distance by raising the street grade
approach, adding sidewalk on the south side of the crossing, adding bike lanes, and replacing the railroad crossing
signals. This grant has no match requirement. A public hearing was held 12/7/21 for the original grant application
for this award.
E-4: State of Utah, Governor’s Office of Economic Opportunity, Bonneville Shoreline Trail Grant
The Salt Lake City Department of Public Lands received $1,300,000 for the Foothills Natural Area & Bonneville
Shoreline Trailhead Infrastructure Improvements. The project proposes to construct five public access trailheads
along the stretch of the Bonneville Shoreline Trail that runs through the Salt Lake City foothills between Emigration
Canyon and Davis County. Proposed trailhead locations are: 1) Bonneville Boulevard near City Creek Canyon and
Utah State Capitol, 2) Emigration Canyon near This Is The Place Heritage Park, 3) Popperton Park near the
University of Utah, 4) 18th Avenue in the upper Avenues neighborhood, and 5) Victory Road northwest of the Utah
State Capitol. This grant has a match requirement of $1,300,000. Parks & Public Lands has committed matching
funds is from parks impact fees adopted in FY 2022 Capital Improvement Program for the Foothills Trailhead
Development Phase II.
The $2.6 million total project funding will fully cover construction costs at all five locations based on current plans
and estimates. Note: This funding is not subject to the FY2022 annual budget adoption ordinance contingency on
all Foothill trails funding because this project is constructing trailhead infrastructure.
Policy Question:
Pausing Trail Construction and Building Trailhead Infrastructure – The Council may wish to ask the
Administration how this relates to the pause in work relating to the Foothills Trails Plan.

Questions about Item A-3, Healthcare Innovation Branding Biohive
Council Staff Questions:
The Council approved $50,000 in Budget Amendment #4 of FY21 for this same use and it was
identified as one-time. Could you please discuss why additional funding is needed and what
deliverables are expected?
Department of Economic Development Response:
In 2020, the Mayor convened stakeholders in the life science industry to help shape the City’s
economic development approach around health care innovation. The goal of this was to
harness the impact and growth of this industry and to connect companies and organizations to
workforce development, STEM education, and other programs and policies that will help
provide economic opportunity to underserved communities in the City. The partnerships
created between Salt Lake City, GoUtah, WTC Utah, BioUtah, EDC Utah, University of Utah, as
well as companies representing various sub-sectors of health care innovation are focused on
elevating the awareness of this industry with a focus on branding and marketing it through the
new entity known as Biohive.
This partnership is in alignment to not duplicate efforts, but to harness the collective goals of
key organizations and the City to retain and help grow this industry together for the benefit of
City residents. This will be accomplished through the following deliverables and activities:
i.Marketing and branding of the industry that has the City at the central hub of activity
to connect residents to an industry that creates high wage jobs (multiple entry points
for careers and jobs), pipeline of new talent through new technologies being created
at the University of Utah, and an already strong yet not well-known history of
diagnostic and medical device companies.
ii.Workforce development programing in partnership with the Salt Lake School District,
Salt Lake Community College, and higher education by providing new opportunities
for communities who have not participated before in the life science industry.
iii.Programming and activities to ensure the momentum of this industry continues to be
retention and growth.
iv.A report that updates on these fronts within Salt Lake City.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Revenue for FY 2021-22 Budget Adjustments
The following chart shows a current projection of General Fund Revenue for fiscal year 2022.
Projections for fiscal year 2021 were better than expected, while projections for fiscal year 2022
continue to trend above budget. Sales tax for the first quarter was well above budget and the
prior year. Franchise tax is lagging below budget from a decrease in water franchise ($250,000)
and telephone ($150,000) franchise taxes.
Other notable increases are licenses are above budget driven by increases in airport parking taxes
and innkeepers tax. Permits remain very strong with increases in plan check fees and building
permits. Field reservations, land leases and building leases are leading to an increase in Charges,
Fees and Rentals.
Notable decreases include a decrease in moving violations and justice court fines and fire
reimbursement from the airport is also below budget.

Section A: New Items
A-1: Suazo Membership GF $25,000.00
Department: Economic Development Prepared By: Jolynn Walz, Ben Kolendar
For Questions Please Include: Jolynn Walz, Ben Kolendar, Randy Hillier
This funding would continue to allow Salt Lake City to be represented on the Suazo Board. According to the organization’s
website, “The Suazo Business Center is a business Resource committed to the development and empowerment of the
Latino/Hispanic and other underserved communities. We provide assistance to help existing and potential minority
entrepreneurs succeed and build wealth.” The Administration stated Economic Development would identify a staff person
to serve on the Board.
A-2: Move Grants Manager from ARPA to GF Funding GF $66,000.00
Misc Grants -$80,000.00
Department: Finance Prepared By: Mary Beth Thompson
For Questions Please Include: Mary Beth Thompson , John Vuyk
The position associated with this move will be managing all grants, including ARPA. Since ARPA funds need to be
specifically dedicated, this position doesn’t qualify for ARPA funding and will need to be moved to and funded by the
General Fund.
A-3: Healthcare Innovation - Biohive GF $50,000.00
Department: Economic Development Prepared By: Jolynn Walz, Ben Kolendar
For Questions Please Include: Jolynn Walz, Ben Kolendar, Randy Hillier
Salt Lake City has focused a substantial amount of economic recovery efforts on the healthcare innovation industry as a
part of the Tech Lake City initiative. This industry has a strong presence in the City and has high growth potential. This
industry is particularly strategic for the City as these jobs are anchor ed with research and development and have high
potential for upward mobility. This funding will go towards a collaborative effort alongside industry partners to brand the
industry, highlight opportunities within it for underserved communities, and elevate apprenticeships, internships, and
upward career mobility.
A-4: Fix the Bricks Grant – Transfer Grant Funded
PCN GF $0.00
Department: Fire Prepared By: Clint Rasmussen
For Questions Please Include: Clint Rasmussen, Randy Hillier
Emergency Management recently integrated into the Fire Department. Its existing programs have improved, and new
projects are in the works. Emergency Management has several federal grants that it manages including "Fix the Bricks".
Part of this specific grant funds the salary/benefits of one FTE to help administer the program. It was determined that the
'Fix the Bricks' grant would be more appropriately administered in the Department of Community and Neighborhood's
Housing Stability.
This budget amendment would amend the staffing document to reflect the move of 1 PCN/FTE from Fire to Community
and Neighborhoods. As the FTE is funded through the grant, no transfer of budget needs to occur.

A-5: Additional Sergeant for Special Victims Unit GF $81,671.00
GF $54,300.00
Fleet $49,500.00
IMS $4,800.00
Department: Police Prepared By: Shellie Dietrich, Jordan Smith
For Questions Please Include: Shellie Dietrich, Jordan Smith, Sandee Moore
Currently, the SVU Sergeant is supervising 12 detectives which is not manageable. SVU caseloads have continued to
increase and additional detectives have been assigned to the squad over the past few years in an effort to manage the
caseload. Also, over 700 Sexual Assault Kit Initiative (SAKI) kits were submitted a few years ago and the state lab has been
making good progress, now returning Combined DNA Index System (CODIS) hits at an increasingly rapid rate. Due to the
response of the State lab, we currently have over 400 CODIS hits from the SAKI kits producing cold case leads. These cases
need follow up and investigation in a timely manner which we cannot facilitate without additional resources.
The benefit of an additional Sergeant, outside rectifying the immense span of control currently handled by a single
Sergeant, is the ability to focus efforts on the SAKI and cold case queue. Separating the functions of the squad, overseen by
a second Sergeant, to investigate sex crimes committed against adults and children from cold cases, SAK cases, and lesser,
but still serious sex crimes (voyeurism, sexual battery, gross lewdness, etc.) would reduce individual caseloads and allow
for better case investigation of these crimes as well as increase our ability to make progress on the SAKI cases with CODIS
hits.
This request for an additional Sgt includes funding for fleet and IMS.
This request facilitates an immediate need and future budget requests may be considered for two additional SAKI cold case
detectives, overtime, or other resources to facilitate investigation of these cases in a timely manner.
A-6: Police Access Control Upgrade and Support GF $214,538.00
IMS $214,538.00
Department: Police Prepared By: Shellie Dietrich, Captain Teerlink
For Questions Please Include: Shellie Dietrich, Captain Teerlink, Sandee Moore, Aaron Bentley
Budget request for an update of the security access control system at PSB and ancillary PD facilities. The current system
needs to be replaced to prevent a critical failure of building security required for state compliance. PD has worked with
facilities to identify a state contracted vendor that will provide the hardware, software and support for access control. The
server that is specified in this system has capacity to add other city access control systems as the city system expands.
Ongoing cost for support is $45,000 per year and is included in the initial cost for the first yea r.
The Police Department has coordinated on this request with Facilities IMS and public works to ensure functionality for all
departments as the system is expanded throughout the city. This request is for the first phase of the implementation that
covers the police department system.
A-7: Fireworks Budget GF $25,000.00
Department: Public Lands Prepared By: Gregg Evans
For Questions Please Include: Gregg Evans, Kristin Riker, John Vuyk
The Public Lands Department Community Events group is requesting $25,000 from General Funds to cover the annual
July firework shows that would occur during calendar year 2022. Due to the severe drought, we experienced this past
summer the City Council cut the firework funding "one -time" from the FY22 budget. Due to the firework show contract
requirements the FY22 show was already prepaid in March of FY21 to reserve the fireworks show in July of FY22. Cutting
the funding in FY22 actually impacts the FY23 firework shows.

A-8: Violent Crimes Cops Hiring Grant City Match GF $364,030.00
GF $282,430.00
GF $535,000.00
Fleet $495,000.00
IMS $40,000.00
Department: Police Prepared By: Shellie Dietrich, Jordan Smith
For Questions Please Include: Shellie Dietrich, Jordan Smith, Sandee Moore
The COPS Hiring Grant was funded by DOJ in 2019 and accepted by the City and approved by City Council. A condition o f
the grant is that the 3-year project must be completed within a 5-year project period as extensions allow. This will require
hiring in January or February of 2022 to facilitate the 3-year project period within the 5 years allowed. The requested
budget would be the city portion of the hiring costs for FY 22. Funding would also be required in FY 23 and FY 24 . In FY
25, 6 months of funding would be the city portion and then the city would take on full budget for these 10 positions. The
total grant funding is $1,250,000 which will equate to approximately 25% of the cost over 3 years. The 10 officer positions
were identified to create a squad dedicated to addressing Violent Crime in the community. These positions, in conjunction
with the cooperative Project Safe Neighborhoods program, will have a major impact on the ability to proactively work to
reduce violent crime in the city by enforcement and prosecution.
A-9: Arts Council Staff GF $175,000.00
Department: Economic Development Prepared By: Jolynn Walz, Ben Kolendar
For Questions Please Include: Ben Kolendar, Lorena Riffo Jensen, Jolynn Walz, Randy Hillier
The Arts Council is in need of additional staffing support to accommodate duties shifted from the Mayor’s Advisor on Arts
& Culture role. In addition, challenges remain to keep up with current workload, fundraising needs due to ZAP loss of
qualifying expenditures, and new initiatives requested of the Arts Council. Attrition has been a challenge at the Arts
Council due to workload. The request is for 3.0 FTEs which is approximately $350,000 in ongoing expenses and
approximately $175,000 in FY22 if funded mid-year. The Arts Council currently has 6.5 FTE to run the full operations of a
non-profit, the City’s growing public art program (including maintenance), the city’s arts grants program, programming
such as Living Traditions and the Twilight Concert Series and serve as an ombudsman to the arts community.
A-10: Allen Park Plan CIP Project Rescope CIP $0.00
Department: Public Lands Prepared By: Gregg Evans
For Questions Please Include: Kristin Riker, Lewis Kogan, Katherine Maus, Gregg Evans
Public Lands is requesting a budget amendment to revise the scope of submitted CIP application for FY 2021 -2022. The
original scope for Historic Structure Renovation and Activation at Allen Park included funding for structural and
occupancy analysis of historic structures; drawings, plans and cost estimates for reconstruction of the George Allen Home,
the "Rooster House," septic system removal, sewer line construction, water infrastructure, stabilization of exterior art
pieces, and pedestrian stairway connections; and reconstruction of lighting and driveways. The current scope also lists
reconstruction of the George Allen Home and "Rooster House" to serve as a small cafe with dining opportunities. Due to
initial public engagement and feedback, Public Lands is requesting a scope change to engage in robust community and
stakeholder engagement to create an Adaptive Reuse and Activation Plan for Allen Park which will determine the future
use of the structures. In order to preserve the strong community investment in the site, Public Lands believes it would be
necessary to engage in extensive public engagement to inform a plan that will guide future management decisions and
capital improvement projects in the Park. Public Lands is currently engaging with a consultant to complete a Cultural

Landscape Report, which will also influence the Adaptive Reuse and Activation Plan and be completed in a timely manner,
in conjunction with public engagement for the plan.
Funding for an Adaptive Reuse and Activation Plan for Allen Park was awarded in 2020 with reallocated emergency bond
funding. However, it was ultimately discovered that it was not legally permit ted for bond funding to be utilized for a non-
capital expense. Public Lands is currently utilizing the emergency bond funding for emergency repairs to minimize damage
to the structures and the property, including but not limited to roof repair, restoring e xternal power to select structures,
investigation and construction documentation for sewer and water line installation, failing appliance removal, septic
infrastructure removal, etc.
Project tasks within the new scope may include but are not limited to:
- Robust community engagement with key stakeholders, the Sugarhouse community, and the broader public
- Development of an Adaptive Reuse and Activation Plan, informed by the Cultural Landscape Report and public
engagement, to guide future management of the site including over-arching goals, specific projects, objectives and
prioritization
- Structural and occupancy analysis of the historic structures
- Development of conceptual and construction documents, and cost estimates for adaptive reuse and activation
projects listed in the Plan
- Investigation into the feasibility of Allen Park becoming a Historic Landmark Site

by low-performing cities and made these funds available to apply for by high-performing cities, such as Salt Lake City.
These reallocated funds are for direct client assistance only.
To administer Salt Lake City’s initial ERAP 1 award, the City contracted with the State of Utah, Department of Workforce
Services’ (DWS) online Utah Rent Relief application portal, https://rentrelief.utah.gov/.
Coordinating with DWS, Housing Stability staff have determined that Salt Lake City could apply for $3,000,000 in
reallocated ERAP 1. These funds will further assist Salt Lake City residents with deposit, rent, utilities, rent arrears, and
utility arrears, again utilizing the Utah Rent Relief application portal.
Note: This new request is separate from, and does not affect, the City’s other Treasury ERAP 1 ($6,067,033) and ERAP 2
($4,800,559.40) awards.
See attached funding agreement.

RE: Continued Use of Art Barn for Arts Council and Arts Council Foundation
Public Benefits Analysis – Below-Market Rate Lease Agreement Resolution
ISSUE AT-A-GLANCE
The Administration has submitted a transmittal, including a public benefits analysis, regarding City-owned
property known as the Art Barn, located at 54 Finch Lane. Currently the Art Barn functions as the administrative
office for the Arts Council, the Arts Council Foundation, as well as an art gallery, community arts education
facility, and active art studio. The Administration recommends that the Arts Council continue to use and inhabit
the property as its administrative office including 6.5 Arts Council FTE’s, as well as part-time and seasonal
employees. A public hearing is required for public benefits analysis, and the Administration recommends that
the Council consider approving the below-market rate lease agreement with the Salt Lake City Arts Council
Foundation allowing the continued use of the Art Barn.
While the Arts Council has used the Art Barn for decades, a public benefits analysis has never been completed as
required by code. The Administration tasked the Arts Council with formalizing an operating agreement between
the Arts Council Foundation and Salt Lake City. In addition, as part of this process, the Arts Council revised the
Foundation bylaws, and created a human resources policy and procedures manual. With the completion of the
new operating agreement, the Attorney’s Office suggested a public benefits analysis be completed to satisfy code
requirements.
PUBLIC BENEFITS
The Administration has identified the public benefits the City receives from allowing the continued use of the Art
Barn for the Arts Council Division and the Arts Council Foundation as follows:
“On average the Arts Council’s programs have reached approximately 100,000 individual audience
members and over 1,000 artists per year. These programs are intended to serve residents along the
Wasatch Front, with a focus on the Salt Lake County area. However, events such as the Living

Traditions Festival attract attendees from across Utah and throughout the region. Programs are
thoughtfully curated each year with the intention of supporting artists and arts organizations and
making Salt Lake City a more vibrant, equitable, and engaging place to live.”
Arts Council Programs
a) Finch Lane Art Gallery (Includes year-round visual art exhibits and flash projects)
b) Living Traditions Presents (Features traditional art forms of Salt Lake’s native, immigrant and
ethnically diverse communities)
c) Twilight Concert Series (Music concert series presented each summer featuring nationally recognized
and upcoming musicians from across the country and around the world held at the Gallivan Center.)
d) Outreach and Engagement (Provides professional development and activation opportunities to local
performing artists to engage with audiences through the Brown Bag Concert Series and Busker
Festival)
e) Salt Lake City’s Public Art Program (Provides opportunities for artists to create site-specific artwork
that enhances or is integrated into public buildings and spaces)
f) City Arts Grants Program (Supports artists, arts organizations, nonprofits and elementary schools
conducting programming across Salt Lake City through five grant categories.
g) Technical Assistance, Services and Research (Arts Council staff members have expertise in various
artistic disciplines, and provide assistance to artists, organizations and community members through
communication efforts (newsletters, blog posts, social media).
Additional Benefits:
Streamline City art initiatives and improve structure and funding of the Arts Councils (Mayor’s Plan
2021).
Ability to fundraise in support of programming and staff which creates a direct benefit to residents by
leveraging City funding.
National and local funding support which increases accountability to community and the public.
Arts Council mission is to fill niche gaps, incubate, and fulfill community needs.
Constant presence of staff and public at Reservoir Park.
Increase overall participation in arts and cultural activities.
BUDGET AND POLICY QUESTIONS
Is there a time limit to the Operating Agreement? In other words, does the agreement go forward in
perpetuity?
Have seismic improvements been made to the Art Barn?
What is the current condition of the Art Barn from a structural standpoint? The 2020 Facilities
Condition Index indicates there are $46,780 in Capital Asset Renewal Needs. The Council may wish to
ask for additional details.
The Council may wish to ask the Administration to identify any structural issues or any anticipated
repairs needed in the next five years and the associated cost estimates.
The Administration indicates that while a public benefits analysis study is not required under Utah Code 10-8-2
before the City can enter an agreement for a below-market value lease, according to the transmittal, it’s helpful
to study whether such an agreement will meet the public benefit requirements of the code.
Because Salt Lake City Arts Council is a non-profit entity, the City may waive the consideration it would
ordinarily collect in exchange for the conveyance of the City property so long as the municipal legislative body
holds a public hearing and authorizes the waiver. (The City leases the property to the Arts Council for $1 per
year.)

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The Salt Lake City Arts Council Foundation & Arts Division is requesting to continue utilizing
54 Finch Lane, or the “Art Barn” as the administrative headquarters, housing 6.5 Arts Council
FTEs and multiple seasonal and part-time employees, as well as to provide a home for the Finch
Lane Art Gallery and its numerous exhibitions.

Over the past 18+months, the Arts Council was tasked with formalizing an Operating Agreement
between the Arts Council Foundation and Salt Lake City. As part of this work, the Arts Council
completed drafts of the Operating Agreement, revised the Foundation Bylaws, and completed a
comprehensive Human Resource policies and procedures manual for the Salt Lake Arts Council
Foundation.
Although the Arts Council has utilized the Art Barn for decades, a Public Benefits Analysis, as
per Utah Code 10-8-2, has never been completed. With the completion of the newly formalized
operating agreement, the Attorney’s Office thought it would be appropriate to complete a Public
Benefits Analysis to satisfy the requirements of this code.
Utah Code 10-8-2 (1) (a) (v) states that after first holding a public hearing, a municipal
legislative body may authorize municipal services or other nonmonetary assistance to be
provided to or waive fees required to be paid by a nonprofit entity, whether or not the
municipality receives consideration in return.
While a study is not required under Utah Code 10-8-2 before the City can enter an agreement for
a below market value lease, it is beneficial to consider whether such an agreement will meet the
public benefit requirements under Utah Code 10-8-2.
The attached memo to Rachel Otto, Mayor’s Chief of Staff, outlines the public benefits identified
by the Administration that the City will realize from allowing the continued usage of the City-
owned 54 Finch Lane “Art Barn” as the primary administrative headquarters of the Salt Lake
City Foundation & Arts Division.

DATE: January 21, 2022
SUBJECT: Sustained occupation and usage of Salt Lake City Corporation property located at
54 Finch Lane, also known as the “Art Barn,” to Salt Lake City Arts Council Foundation, a Utah
nonprofit corporation: Public Benefit Analysis under Utah Code Section 10 -8-2.
____________________________________________________________________________________
In continuation of longstanding support from Salt Lake City since 1979, the Salt Lake Arts Council
Foundation & Arts Division respectfully requests the continued usage of the Art Barn in Salt Lake City as
both the administrative headquarters of 6.5 Salt Lake City Government staff and multiple seasonal and
part time employees of the Arts Council foundation. Additionally, maximizing efficient usage, this site
serves the community and local artists as the Finch Lane Art Gallery, home to exhibitio ns of diverse
emerging and established Utah artists since 1931. The Salt Lake City Arts Council has served as an
integral component of Salt Lake City as a governmental non-profit under Utah Code 11-13a-101.
Over the past 18+months, the Arts Council was tasked with formalizing an Operating Agreement between
the Arts Council Foundation and Salt Lake City, As part of this work, the Arts Council completed drafts of
the Operating Agreement, revised the Foundation Bylaws, and completed a comprehensive Human
Resource policies and procedures manual for the Salt Lake Arts Council Foundation.
Under Utah law, after first holding a public hearing, a municipality may “authorize municipal services or
other nonmonetary assistance to be provided to a nonprofit entity, whether or not the municipality
receives consideration in return.” Utah Code §10-8-2(1)(a)(v). Because Salt Lake City Arts Council is a
nonprofit entity, the City may waive the consideration it would ordinarily collect in exchange for
conveyance of the City Property so long as the municipal legislative body holds a public hearing and
authorizes the waiver.
Though a formal study is not required under Utah Code section 10-8-2(3)(e) for services or assistance
provided to a nonprofit entity after public hearing, an informal analysis considering the same factors as a
formal study is set forth below to assist the Salt Lake City Council in their consideration of the costs and
benefits of the requested waiver. Utah Code § 10-8-2(2)(a). Those factors are:
(1) The specific benefits (including intangible benefits) to be received by the City in return for
the arrangement;
(2) The City’s purpose in making the appropriation, including an analysis of how the safety,
health, prosperity, moral well-being, peace, order, comfort or convenience of the
residents of Salt Lake City will be enhanced; and
(3) Whether the appropriation is “necessary and appropriate” to accomplish the reasonable
goals and objectives of the City in the area of economic development, job creation,
affordable housing, blight elimination, resource center development, job preservation, the
preservation of historic structures and property, and any other public purpose.
See Utah Code §10-8-2(3)(e).
Background:
The Salt Lake Arts Council Foundation is a nonprofit organization that was established in November of
1979, under the direction of Mayor Ted Wilson, with objectives to promote and support artistic programs;
to ascertain community cultural needs; to facilitate community efforts in developing cultural and artistic
programs to reach the public in new ways in Salt Lake City; to act as the advisory body to the City in
relation to the arts; and to bridge communication between the cultural community and City government.
These objectives are related in City Ordinance Chapter 2.32, which connects the City to the nonprofit via
the appointment of board members by the Mayor and confirmation by the City Council, by defining the
responsibilities of the Executive Director, and by providing staff support to the Salt Lake City Arts Council.
The affairs of the Foundation are managed by a Board of Trustees who are also the officers of the Salt
Lake City Arts Council Board.
While the goals of the Arts Council have grown over the last forty-three years, these elements remain at
the core of the organization. City employees of the Arts Division manage the day-to-day operations of
programs and Division initiatives, with oversight and direction from both City Administration and
leadership of the Department of Economic Development. The Foundation is c onsidered a component unit
of the City by the IRS, which means that the Foundation’s annual financial audit is considered as a part of
the City’s annual financial audit. The City funds the Arts Council by providing funds in a City department
cost center, mainly consisting of salary and benefits, as well as through a non-departmental funding
contract with the Foundation for grantmaking and programming. The Foundation raises additional funding
from private donors/sponsors, other government entities, and through earned income.
Collaboratively, over the past 18+ months the City, and Foundation Board’s Executive and Governance
committees revisited the subject of this Operating Agreement. Board members and the Arts Council’s
Executive Director worked with Bruce White, an attorney at Parsons Behle & Latimer specializing in
nonprofit organizations and governmental non-profits to develop an updated draft of the Operating
Agreement in order to articulate this long standing relationship between the two entities. This draft was
presented to the City Attorney Megan DePaulis for review and comment in March 2020 (see in
References). The Bylaws for the Foundation (last updated in the 90’s) were also re-drafted to comply with
City ordinance and current best practice. In addition to this, a comprehensive Human Resources
handbook was contracted for the Foundation employees regarding policies and procedures specific to the
non-profit who employs non-City employees. The Operating Agreement and Bylaws revision are major
steppingstones in a mutually beneficial relationship.
On average, the Arts Council’s programs have reached approximately 100,000 individual audience
members and over 1,000 artists per year. These programs are intended to serve residents along the
Wasatch Front, with a focus on the Salt Lake County area. However, events such as the Living Traditions
Festival attract attendees from across Utah and throughout the region. Programs are thoughtfully curated
each year with the intention of supporting artists and arts organizations and making Salt Lake City a more
vibrant, equitable, and engaging place to live.
The Arts Council’s programs:
Finch Lane Gallery hosts year-round visual art exhibitions in three gallery spaces at the historic Art Barn
in Reservoir Park. The gallery gives local artists an opportunity to exhibit a current body of work, explore
exhibition themes or media relevant to the community and field of arts at large, and foster the
development of curatorial skills through exhibition production and collaboration. T hrough a new initiative,
Flash Projects, the Gallery opened its spaces for short-term, interdisciplinary, community-oriented, and/or
experimental projects in 2020. In response to COVID-19, the Gallery is currently hosting exhibitions
online, virtual experiences, as well as limited in-person gallery visits by appointment only.
Living Traditions Presents features the traditional artforms of Salt Lake’s native, immigrant, and
ethnically diverse communities. Over the years, program offerings have been expanded in an effort to
reach more geographically diverse communities in typical programming years, this includes a three-day
festival; Mondays in the Park, a concert series throughout the summer at the Chase Home in Liberty
Park; hands-on workshops with traditional folk artists at libraries and community centers throughout Salt
Lake; and a summer end Garden Party which is a smaller festival event at Jordan Park. We hope that
future years will allow us to continue this series of events. We have budgeted for these events in 2020-
2021 in the event social distancing changes are made, but for now these events have been postponed or
modified.
Twilight Concert Series is a music concert series presented each summer featuring nationally
recognized and upcoming musicians from across the country and around the world. The series is held at
the Gallivan Center and produced through a more sustainable private partnership that ensures continued
access to residents and enables the Arts Council to focus on more diversity in its gene ral programming.
Musical acts are prioritized on the basis of diversity through both musical genres and those that
represent, speak to, and serve as role models to multiple communities including underrepresented
demographics. For almost 35 years the Twilight Concert Series has brought communities together to
share this experience, creating a vibrant and relevant downtown atmosphere, and promoting Salt Lake
City through the arts. The 2020 series was cancelled due to COVID -19, but our new and modified efforts
are expanded on in the description below.
Outreach and Engagement is a priority for our organization. The Salt Lake Arts Council provides
additional professional development and activation opportunities to local performing artists to engage with
audiences through such programs as the Brown Bag Concert Series and Busker Festival, among others.
These programs contribute to the cultural vibrancy of public parks, plazas and businesses by creating
temporary placemaking. Modified presentations in 2020 included the Cultural Caravan, which was a
traveling pop-up version of the Busker Festival and presented with social distancing measures in place in
all seven City Council Districts. Additionally, the Art Barn serves as a facility that can be rented by the
community and that other City agencies can utilize for meetings and events. A variety of venue rentals
and partnerships facilitate long standing Literary Arts programs in the community. In 2020 in response to
the pandemic, the Arts Council partnered with Emergency Management and the Salt Lake City School
district to act as a food distribution center for families in need. Recent partnerships and programs related
to exhibition at Finch Lane have facilitated tree plantings in Reservoir Park, and trainings related to
exhibitions on Suicide Prevention and Domestic Abuse Survivor Training.
Salt Lake City’s Public Art Program provides opportunities for artists to create site-specific artwork that
enhances or is integrated into public buildings and spaces. Approximately four new projects are
commissioned each year with 2019 resulting in the installation of the State’s largest dollar art commission
in history. The Arts Council recognizes that art in public spaces reflects the history, culture, and pride of
our people and civic spaces.
City Arts Grants Program supports the arts activities of artists, arts organizations, nonprofits, and
elementary schools conducting programming across Salt Lake City through five grant categories. The
City Arts Grant program allows the Arts Council to reach more geographically diverse areas, support
multiple artistic disciplines, and fill gaps that may exist in education and programming for residents.
Technical Assistance, Services, & Research Arts Council staff members have expertise in various
artistic disciplines and provide assistance to artists, organizations, and community members through
communication efforts (such as a monthly newsletter, website blog posts, and a strong social-media
presence), technical assistance (by providing on-site support to performing arts partners, artist
consultation, and by serving on committees and boards), and through referrals. Additionally, the
organization participates in national studies such as the Americans for the Arts & Economic Prosperity® V
study and conducts local-level research for the benefit of the arts and creative industries.
The City Property:
The City Property in question consists of approximately 7,000 leasable square feet on .34 acres with a
fair market lease value (based upon an average price per square foot formula comparing approximately
nine similar facilities in the area) of approximately $194,250 averaged at market rate provided by Real
Estate Services at $27.75 per square foot See highlighted parcel on diagram below.
A Brief History of the Art Barn:
The Art Barn was built during the Great Depression with assistance from the City of Salt Lake, the federal
Works Projects Administration, private contributors, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Alta Rawlins Jensen was one of the visionaries who worked toward the building of a community arts
center that was described in the Salt Lake Telegram as “A Greenwich Village for Salt Lake.” Ms. Jensen
believed that despite desperate economic times, an art center could help to lift the spirit and rekindle the
dreams of the community.
In March of 1931, the Salt Lake City Commission gave the Art Barn founding group permission to build in
Reservoir Park. Designed by architect Taylor Woolley, a former associate of Frank Lloyd Wright, the Art
Barn’s projected construction cost was $10,000. The groundbreaking took place in October 1931, and the
cornerstone was laid in December of the same year. Difficulties in raising the funds necessary to
complete construction delayed the official opening until June 11, 1933. Governor Henry H. Blood and
Mayor Louis Marcus addressed the crowd that filled the building and the lawn surrounding it. The Art Barn
has been a significant community center for arts activities since that time.
The road that runs through Reservoir Park in front of the Art Barn, at the insistence of the founders, was
named Finch Lane to honor the Commissioner of City Parks, Harry L. Finch. Commissioner Finch had
been instrumental in securing the property from the City at a lease rate of $1 per year, and in obtaining
the Federal funds to hire unemployed laborers for this public building project.
In its 90th anniversary year, this space has touched thousands of people, serving artists of all disciplines
and those who experienced their work. Not only has the physical facility survived, with occasional
renovations and additions, but it is still serving the public as its founders intended.
Benefits to Salt Lake City:
All Arts Council programs and services are provided at no charge or at an affordable, low cost to the
public (Twilight Concert Series). Annually, the Arts Council obtains operating and programming funding
from numerous resources, including federal, state, county, and private funding with Salt Lake City
providing on average 65% of our total support. In late 2018 Union Creative Agency analyzed the
operating model of the organization reporting, “The hybrid model has potential to be a premier and
innovative model for Local Arts Agencies. While this model may require more work and development than
simpler models, it has the capacity to deliver unprecedented impact.” This hybrid model of operations,
recently also adopted by the State’s Utah Department of Heritage and Arts as an innovative model,
benefits the City and residents in myriad ways:
● Ability to fundraise a significant portion of the funds that support programming and
staff, creating a direct benefit to residents through leveraging City dollars.
● Wide community buy-in from other government and private funders both national
and local. Increases accountability to community and public when funding sources are
diverse.
● Procurement and commissioning procedures that are effective for best practices in
the field, resulting in responsiveness, efficiency, and effective partner collaboration -in
particular when it comes to executing on issues of equity and inclusion.
● Ability to engage in Citywide issues relevant to the community through Mayor, City
Departments, etc. Effective collaboration, access to information, and resources.
● Mission as an Arts Council to fill niche gaps, incubate, and fulfill comm unity needs.
● Staff and public presence at the facility maintain a constant presence and
awareness in Reservoir Park, as many parks in Salt Lake City see usage by unsheltered
populations, as well as an active University of Utah Student population nea rby.
Accomplishing Salt Lake City’s Goals:
The Salt Lake City Arts Council recently completed a 5-year strategic plan in concert with the Salt Lake
City Arts Council Board, Mayor, Department of Economic Development, and multi-year stakeholder
engagement process involving residents, stakeholders and City Departments. Additionally, the Executive
Director is tasked with implementation of the goals of PLAN SLC, the Mayor’s Current Plans, and guiding
strategic plans and policies of the Department of Economic Development. The Board of the Salt Lake City
Arts Council acts as an advisory body to the City in all matters pertaining to the arts and cultural
development of the City.
● Streamline City art initiatives and improve the structure and funding of the Arts Council (Mayor’s
Plan 2021)
● Ensure access to, and support for, a diversity of cultural facilities citywide.(Plan SLC)
● Increase Overall Participation in arts and cultural activities (Plan SLC)
● Strengthen Organization Health and Development (Salt Lake City Arts Council Strategic Plan)

The Arts Council receives funding from Salt Lake City’s Non-departmental each year to help with the
expenses of managing the Art Barn facility. In FY19 and FY20 support was given at $7,500 and in FY21
support was at $10,000. The Arts Council Foundation uses this funding to pay for the building utilities.
The Arts Council Foundation also incurs the cost of monthly building cleaning, building security, and
purchases building supplies such as cleaning products, bathroom paper supplies, and PPE.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, we would like to take this opportunity to thank both the City Administration and the City
Council for this opportunity to present our Public Benefits Analysis for the Salt Lake City Arts Council. We
have demonstrated in this document that the Salt Lake City Arts Council and Salt Lake City Arts Council
Foundation provide a clear, direct, and substantial benefit to not only Salt Lake City Residents and
Visitors, but to the Greater Salt Lake City Area. Additionally, we believe that our hybrid st ructure as both a
division of Salt Lake City Government and as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization provides an excellent
example of; (1) robust and healthy public-nonprofit partnerships to our industry at large,(2) remarkable
stewardship of public funds, (3) innovative and solutions focused business practices, and (4) sustainable
and inclusive organizational structure. In closing, we invite any member of the Administration or Council,
as well as members of the general public, to request additional information to clarify any remaining
questions you might have regarding our Public Benefits Analysis. Thank you!

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY
TO:City Council Members
FROM:Brian Fullmer
Policy Analyst
DATE:February 1, 2022
RE: Master Plan and Zoning Map Amendments for Former Fire Station #3 Properties at
Approximately 1085, 1095, and 1097 East Simpson Avenue, and 1104 East Sugarmont Drive
PLNPCM2021-00914 & PLNPCM2021-01007
The Council will be briefed about an ordinance that would amend zoning of Redevelopment Agency (RDA)
properties at approximately 1085, 1095, and 1097 East Simpson Avenue from the current PL (Public
Lands) zoning designation to CHSBD1 (Sugar House Central Business District 1) as shown in the image
below. The proposal would also amend the Sugar House Community Master Plan Future Land Use Map
for the properties from “Public Lands and Institutional” to “Business District Mixed Use Town Center
Scale.”
It is anticipated the subject properties will be consolidated with adjacent property to the east for future
development, but no development proposal is being considered at this point. Planning staff noted a future
project would likely be a mixed-use development including housing and commercial uses. If approved by
the Council, the subject properties’ zoning designation would match that of property to the east, which is
also owned by the RDA. Properties to the north and south are privately owned and are also zoned CSHBD1.
Fairmont Park and Aquatic Center are to the west and zoned OS (Open Space).
Two buildings are on the subject properties. The first is the former fire station #3 which served the Sugar
House neighborhood. A new station was built at 2425 South 900 East which serves the Sugar House
community, and the former station is no longer being used. The second is a Sugar House Business District
maintenance building used by crews that maintain the area’s public spaces. If the properties are used for
future development a new location would need to be found for the maintenance building.
Planning staff recommended and the Planning Commission forwarded a unanimous positive
recommendation to the City Council on the proposed master plan and zoning map amendments.

Goal of the briefing: Review the proposed master plan and zoning map amendments, determine if the
Council supports moving forward with the proposal.
POLICY QUESTIONS
1. The Council may wish to ask the Administration for an update on plans to solicit development on
this property, including whether a long-term lease is the preferred approach. The Council may also
wish to further consider/discuss community input about future uses.
2. The Council may wish to ask the Administration if a space has been identified for maintenance
needs in the business district, and if any funding is needed to secure that location?
3. The Council may wish to ask the Administration if the potential future extension of the S-Line
streetcar to the east would impact redevelopment of this property or if it should be coordinated?
4. Is the Council supportive of the proposed master plan and zoning map amendments?
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
CSHBD1 Zoning Summary (21A.26.060 Salt Lake City Code)
Purpose Statement
The purpose of the CSHBD Sugar House Business District is to promote a walkable community
with a transit oriented, mixed use town center that can support a twenty-four (24) hour
population. The CSHBD provides for residential, commercial and office use opportunities, with
incentives for high density residential land use in a manner compatible with the existing form and
function of the Sugar House master plan and the Sugar House Business District.
The tables below include standards for the CSHBD1 zoning designation.

CSHBD1 Ground Floor Use Requirements
Must be residential, retail goods establishments, retail service establishments, public service portions of businesses,
restaurants, taverns/brewpubs, bar establishments, art galleries, theaters, or performing art facilities.
MASTER PLAN CONSIDERATIONS
The subject parcels are within the area covered by the Sugar House Community Plan, adopted in 2005.
The Plan’s future land use map designates the subject parcels as “Institutional and Public Lands,” which
aligned with the previous use. As noted above, a new fire station was constructed at 2425 South 900 East.
The Plan also recommends expanding the Sugar House Business District to include the subject parcels. It is
Planning staff’s opinion the Plan supports changing the future land use map and zoning map to align with
the recommended Business District expansion.
ANALYSIS OF STANDARDS
Attachment C (pages 10-11) of the Planning Commission staff report outlines zoning map amendment
standards that should be considered as the Council reviews this proposal. Planning staff found the
proposed amendment does not conflict with applicable standards.

Community Council.
• September 28, 2021-Notice mailed to all property owners and tenants within 300 feet of the
subject properties. Digital open house notice posted to the Planning Division website and emailed
to Planning’s list serve.

are generally supportive, with suggestions on what the land could be used for. These include a
community-oriented project rather than luxury apartments; a senior center; or extension of the
Fairmont Aquatic Center adding a recreation center. One commenter suggested retaining the
property as open space, a public plaza or other public amenity. The Sugar House Community
Council letter to Planning and public comments are found on pages 13-15 of the Planning
Commission staff report.

MASTER PLAN: Sugar House Community Plan
ZONING DISTRICT: Current zoning designation is PL Public Lands, proposed zoning designation
is CSHBD1 Sugar House Central Business District
MEETING DATE: December 8, 2021
REQUEST: Mayor Erin Mendenhall has initiated an amendment to the Sugar House
Community Master Plan and the Salt Lake City Zoning Map for properties located at 1085
Simpson (2 parcels with the same address), 1095 Simpson, and 1104 Sugarmont Drive. The
proposal would modify the future land use designation in the Sugar House Community Plan
from "Public Lands and Institutional" to " Business District Mixed Use Town Center Scale" and
the zoning map from PL Public Lands to CSHBD-1 Central Sugar House Business District 1. The
purpose of the proposal is to facilitate the future development of the site. No development
proposals are being considered at this time. The property is in City Council District 7,
represented by Amy Fowler.
RECOMMENDATION: Based on the information in this staff report and the factors to consider for
zoning map, Planning Staff recommends that the Planning Commission forward a positive
recommendation to the City Council regarding this proposal.

furnishings, lighting, and landscaping or a delineated and developed open
space system of the same character. The street level businesses are commercial
and retail in nature, while the upper levels can be either residential or office
depending on compatibility of the adjacent uses. Town Center Scale Mixed Use
occurs primarily in the core area of the Business District surrounded by the
Neighborhood Scale Mixed Use.
The Sugar House Community Plan also includes a section about the expansion of the Sugar House
Business District. The expansion area recommended in the plan includes the subject property (the
map below can be found on Page 16 of the plan). The subject property is within the red circle on the
map. Based on this, the plan supports the proposal to officially change the designation on the future
land use map and the zoning map to align with the recommendations in the Sugar House Community
Plan. The future land use map in the Sugar House Community Plan is proposed to be updated so that
it matches the surrounding property and reflects the zoning. Furthermore, the update helps
implement the plan by matching the proposed expansion of the Sugar House Business District.
Proposed Zoning Map Amendment
The purpose of the zoning map amendment is to match the zoning of the property directly to the east,
which is also owned by the Redevelopment Agency of Salt Lake City. The intent is to combine the
properties and then develop the site.
A proposal to amend the zoning map of the city is subject to the factors found in 21A.50 of the Zoning
Code. It is important to note that the factors are not standards and that the proposal does not need
to comply with each factor listed. This is considered a legislative action and the Planning Commission
is legally required to make a recommendation to the City Council. The standards from 21A.50.050
that apply to zoning map amendments are found in Attachment C.
The subject property (indicated in the red circle) is proposed to change from PL to CSHBD1
PUBLIC INPUT
This proposal is subject to the 45-day engagement process outlined in City Code. Notice was provided
to the surrounding property owners and the Sugar House Community Council on September 27,
2021. The 45-day public input period ended on November 12, 2021. The proposal was presented to
the Sugar House Community Council Land Use Committee on October 11, 2021. The Sugar House
Community Council provided a letter outlining their position that can be found in attachment D.
Several other comments were submitted to the Sugar House Committee Council that can also be
found in attachment D. The comments are summarized below:
• Sugar House Community Council: The community council stated, “We believe this change
is consistent with the purposes, goals, objectives, and policies of the City through the Sugar
House master plan.” The letter does not identify any issues to consider with the proposal.
• Other Public Comments received:
o it makes sense to rezone the property to match the zoning of the parcel to the East.
o the rezoning should be approved, but nor for more luxury apartments and would
prefer a truly community-oriented project for everyone.
o Would love the site to be a senior center.
o Would prefer to see the site be retained as public lands and used for open space, a
public plaza, or some other public amenity that can service the growth in the
neighborhood.
o Should be an extension of the Fairmont Aquatic Center, Sugar House needs a rec
center.
Response to Public Input: The proposal does not include any development proposals at this time, but
it is highly likely that a future project would be a mixed-use development that includes housing and
commercial uses. It is highly likely that the site will be used as open space given the proximity to
Fairmont Park and the S Line, but the opportunity for some public space on the site and the site to the
east would be possible with the proposed zoning change. Those details will be determined by the Salt
Lake City Redevelopment Agency. The RDA Board ultimately determines what sort of community
benefits and uses are included in an RDA project. The RDA Board holds public hearings and receives
public input on these proposals. Those that are interested in providing input on the future
development are encouraged to visit the RDA website to learn more about RDA projects and for ways
to be involved: https://slcrda.com/
The proposal has not been modified based on the public comment received as of November 29, 2021
and there are no proposed modifications being recommended by the Planning Division.
IMPACTS:
The proposal is not anticipated to have significant impacts to the area. No existing residents or
businesses will be displaced by this proposal. The existing Sugar House Business District facility will
have to be relocated or included in the future development of the site. That is an issue that can be
resolved by the RDA and the Public Services Department and does not require any specific action or
recommendation from the Planning Commission.
NEXT STEPS:
The City Council is the final decision maker regarding zoning map amendments and will consider the
proposal regardless of the Planning Commission’s recommendation. If approved by the City Council,
the RDA would likely start the process of seeking out a development partner to come up with a
development plan for the property. Any future development would have to comply with the zoning
approved by the City Council and any conditions or agreements decided by the City Council. It is
typical that developments using RDA land and/or resources to include requirements that align with
city goals. Common examples of requirements include affordable housing units, public space, energy
efficiency, and other benefits that are determined as part of the solicitation for development. These
are just examples and no decisions have been made regarding what may be required in any
development proposal.

CSHBD1 Purpose Statement: The purpose of the CSHBD Sugar House Business District is to
promote a walkable community with a transit oriented, mixed use town center that can
support a twenty-four (24) hour population. The CSHBD provides for residential,
commercial and office use opportunities, with incentives for high density residential land use
in a manner compatible with the existing form and function of the Sugar House master plan
and the Sugar House Business District.
Allowed Uses: a mix of uses typically found in an urban neighborhood such as this. Dense
residential buildings, ground floor commercial uses on primary streets, a mix of retail and
restaurants, office buildings, retail service, and public uses are found in the business district.
Building Height varies based on the use. Residential buildings can potentially be as tall as
105 feet. Nonresidential uses are limited to 30 feet. Mixed use buildings that contain
residential can go up to 105 feet in some instances.
Setbacks: There are no minimum setbacks in the zoning district. There is a maximum
setback of 15 feet, which means no building can be more than 15 feet from a front property
line.
Public Review Processes:
• Conditional Uses: some uses are required to obtain conditional use approval and are
subject to a 45-day early engagement period.
• Design Review if buildings are over a certain height or over a certain square footage the
45-day engagement period applies. Minor modifications to a building design standard
are not subject to the 45-day engagement period.

Subject:Rezone the Old SH Fire Station to CSHBD2
The former fire house and Deseret Industries should be turned into an extension of Fairmont Aquatic center making it an
actual rec center similar to the county facilities throughout the county. Sugar House needs a county rec center. Ideas
could include a basketball court with an indoor track, racquetball courts, fitness and weight equipment. I wonder if you
could even close the road behind the aquatic center and build a little bigger since there’s a road next to the apartments
being built where Granite Furniture used to be.

The subject properties include four parcels of land. All four parcels are included in the proposal.
The total land area included in this proposal is approximately 0.75 acres.
January 14, 2021
Lisa Shaffer (Jan 14, 2022 11:29 MST)

The property currently contains two
buildings: one was the former fire
station for the Sugar House
neighborhood, and one contains a
maintenance building for the business
improvement district that maintains
public spaces in the area.
The subject properties are in an area
that the Sugar House Community
Plan identifies as an expansion of the
Sugar House central business district.
Updating the future land use map and
the zoning map are consistent with
the goals and policies recommended
in the Sugar House Community Plan.
PUBLIC PROCESS: The Sugar
House Community Council was
notified of the proposal on September
27, 2021, starting the 45-day public
comment period. The Sugar House
Community Council Land Use
Committee discussed the item at their
October 11, 2021 meeting. Property
owners and tenants within 300 feet of
the subject property were also notified of the 45-day public comment period. Information was
posted on the Planning Division website and the notices provided a link to the online
information.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on December 8, 2022. The public hearing was
noticed by a direct mailing to all property owners and tenants within 300 feet of the subject
properties, posted on the City and Statue of Utah Public Notice website, emailed to the Planning

Zoning Map Amendment
PROPERTY ADDRESS: 1193 W California Avenue
PARCEL SIZE: Total of .28 acres (Approx. 12,200 square feet)
PARCEL ID: 15-14-104-001-0000
MASTER PLAN: Westside Master Plan (2014)
ZONING DISTRICT: R-1/7,000 Single-Family Residential
REQUEST: Salt Lake City has received a request from Kesaia Young, property owner, requesting that the City
amend the zoning map designation for the property at 1193 W California Avenue. The proposal would rezone
the property from R-1/7,000 (Single-Family Residential) to R-1/5,000 (Single-Family Residential). The rezone
would allow the property to be subdivided into two lots that each meet the minimum lot area for a single-family
dwelling. A specific development proposal was not submitted with the Zoning Map Amendment, but if
approved, the property owner intends to redevelop the site by replacing the existing single-family home with
two new single-family homes, each on their own parcel.
The Planning Commission’s role in this application is to provide a recommendation to the City Council, who
will make the final decision on the requested zoning map amendment.
RECOMMENDATION: Based on the information in this staff report, Planning Staff recommends that the
Planning Commission forward a positive recommendation to the City Council for the proposed zoning map
amendment.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The property owner is requesting to change the zoning map designation of the property at 1193 W California
Avenue from R-1/7,000 (Single-Family Residential) to R-1/5,000 (Single-Family Residential) with the intent
to subdivide the parcel into two lots to build two new single-family homes and potentially two attached ADUs.
The lots would remain under the same ownership and the dwelling units would be occupied by additional
family members. A specific site development proposal has not been submitted, but the existing single-family
home that was built in 1946 would be replaced.
The subject property is approximately 12,200 square feet. The current R-1/7,000 zoning district requires a
minimum lot area of 7,000 square feet for a single-family dwelling. Under the existing R-1/7,000 zoning, the
subject property does not have the minimum 14,000 square feet to subdivide the property and build two single
family dwellings. The proposed request to amend the zoning map from R-1/7,000 to R-1/5,000 would allow
for the property to be subdivided into two separate lots that each meet the minimum lot size requirements of
5,000 square feet with the intent of building a single-family dwelling on each parcel.
The property is located in the South Salt Lake Subdivision, recorded in 1890. The original lots were narrow and
deep, measuring between 4,092 and 4,224 square feet. The residential development pattern largely remains
intact, but most of the properties were consolidated to create larger lots and the north-south alleyway between
the properties was vacated. The neighborhood consists of single-and two-family homes, institutional uses, as
well as some interspersed commercial. The Jordan River Parkway Trail is less than 600 feet to the east and two
“Community Nodes”, as identified in the Westside Master Plan, are less than 600 feet to the west, at
approximately California Avenue and between 1300 W and Concord Street.
The Westside Master Plan is not being changed and the proposed zoning is supported by the neighborhood
and housing visions identified in the plan which states, “All new infill development, whether single-, two- or
multi-family residential, should adhere to the prevailing development pattern in the immediate area.” The
prevailing development pattern in the neighborhood, and on the westside, is single-family residential. The
proposed rezone would not change the character of the existing single-family neighborhood but would allow
for the subject property to be subdivided, resulting in two lots that could be developed with single-family
dwellings. The applicant provided a project narrative explaining the rationale for the zoning map amendment
request that can be found in Attachment B of this report.
PLNPCM2021-00709 3 October 27, 2021
KEY CONSIDERATIONS
The key considerations associated with this proposal are:
1. Compliance with Master Plan Policies
2. Compatibility with Adjacent Properties
3. R-1/5,000 and R-1/7,000 Zoning District Comparison
Consideration 1: Compliance with Master Plan Policies
Westside Master Plan (2014)
Through changes in land use, improved public infrastructure and increased community investment, the
Westside Master Plan envisions redevelopment that maintains the character of existing stable
neighborhoods, while diversifying commercial centers and growing recreational assets. The plan supports
higher density residential growth where appropriate and encourages the reinvestment in and protect of
existing low density residential neighborhoods. The master plan anticipates that the overall level of change
within single-family neighborhoods will be low, but they are viewed as areas of opportunity for incremental
growth and redevelopment. As stated in the master plan, “The established and stable neighborhoods of the
Westside will remain the core of the community, retaining traditional development patterns while also
providing new housing opportunities.”
The Westside Community is comprised of the Glendale and Poplar Grove neighborhoods, both of which have
designated neighborhood, community and regional nodes where future growth is to be accommodated. The
subject property is located within the Glendale neighborhood and adjacent to a “Community Node” located
at California Avenue and Concord Street, where the Glendale City Library and a Baptist and LDS church are
located. A “Community Node” is defined as “an intersection consisting of at least one major road where there
is potential for changes in land use and the development pattern.” Community nodes support adding
residential density in low-density neighborhoods in the form of infill development and appropriately scaled
multi-family units and ADUs. Community nodes are also areas where smaller commercial and institutional
uses should be established as anchoring businesses within residential areas.
The proposed zoning map amendment is compatible with the traditional development pattern of the
neighborhood and the increase in allowable density is supported by the property’s location near a community
node.
Plan Salt Lake (2015)
The proposed zoning map amendment adheres to the initiatives within Plan Salt Lake, a citywide plan that
outlines the City’s overall vision for sustainable growth and development. This includes the development of a
diverse mix of uses and housing options, which are essential to accommodate the growing population in a
responsible manner. The compatibility of new development and how it fits into the scale and character of
existing neighborhoods is also an important consideration. Applicable growth and housing initiatives that the
proposed zoning map amendment would help implement are below.
Growth:
• Locate new development in areas with existing infrastructure and amenities, such as transit and
transportation corridors.
• Promote infill and redevelopment of underutilized land.
• Accommodate and promote an increase in the City’s population.
• Provide access to opportunities for a healthy lifestyle (including parks, trails, recreation, and
healthy food).
PLNPCM2021-00709 4 October 27, 2021
Housing:
• Encourage housing options that accommodate aging in place.
• Direct new growth toward areas with existing infrastructure and services that have the
potential to be people-oriented.
• Enable moderate density increases within existing neighborhoods where appropriate.
• Increase the number of medium density housing types and options.
Guiding Principles outlined in Plan Salt Lake that would relate to the proposed change include the following:
• Neighborhoods that provide a safe environment, opportunity for social interaction, and
services needed for the wellbeing of the community therein.
• Growing responsibly while providing people with choices about where they live, how they
live, and how they get around.
• Access to a wide variety of housing types for all income levels throughout the city, providing
the basic human need for safety and responding to changing demographics.
The proposed zoning map amendment is aligned with the vision and guiding principles outlined in Plan Salt
Lake relating to growth and housing opportunities. Additionally, the subject property is located on a major
transit corridor and nearby recreation and outdoor amenities, which can support the increase in density.
Consideration 2: Compatibility with Adjacent Properties
The subject property is located on the south-east corner of California Avenue and 1200 West. California
Avenue is one of the largest east-west roads in the area and is surrounded by primarily residential
development. Surrounding uses include churches, public libraries, and the Jordan River Parkway Trail.
The residential zoning designation on the south side of California Avenue is R-1/7,000 Single-Family
Residential. While it is a single-family zoning designation, there are existing duplexes in the neighborhood,
including one directly east of the subject property. There are three nearby corners that are designated as
Community Nodes and zoned Neighborhood Commercial, which are intended to support small scale
commercial development. The properties on the north side of California Avenue are primarily zoned R-
1/5,000 Single-Family Residential with one north-south block face that is zoned R-2 Single- and Two-Family
Residential.

PLNPCM2021-00709 5 October 27, 2021
While the proposed rezone would create the only R-1/5,000 property on the south side of California Avenue,
the existing development pattern is more compatible with the R-1/5,000 zoning standards than the R-1/7,000
zoning standards. As discussed above, the recorded South Salt Lake Subdivision plat consisted of narrow lots
just over 4,000 square feet in size. The built development pattern differs from the original subdivision as most
of the lots have been consolidated and the north-south alleyway was vacated.
For comparison, staff reviewed the average lot sizes of the lots between California Avenue and Utahna Drive
and between 1200 W and Emery Street. The 1890 South Salt Lake Subdivision plat has 72 lots, which have
since been consolidated into 42 total lots. Of the 42 lots, only three, including the subject property, exceed
7,000 square feet. The other 39 lots are approximately 6,500 square feet and therefore, do not meet the
current R-1/7,000 zoning standards, even after being consolidated. The change in zoning would reflect the
original and current residential development pattern and provide a compatible infill housing opportunity.
Consideration 3: R-1/5,000 and R-1/7,000 Zoning District Comparison
A comparison of the R-1/5,000 and R-1/7,000 zoning standards is below. In addition to the difference in
minimum lot square footage, the R-1/5,000 zone also has reduced rear and side yard building setbacks. The
permitted building height, lot width, lot coverage, front yard setback, and parking requirements are the same
in both zones. The permitted and conditional land uses are also identical in both zones. Staff does not
anticipate any significant impacts to the surrounding property owners or occupants if the rezone is approved
and the lot is subsequently subdivided and developed under the R-1/5,000 zoning standards.

PLNPCM2021-00709 6 October 27, 2021
DISCUSSION
The proposed rezone is compatible with the platted subdivision and reflects the existing development pattern,
which consists of single- and two-family dwellings on lots less than 7,000 square feet in size. The proposed
change would allow for the subdivision of the property but is not expected to change the character of the
neighborhood or have adverse impacts on future growth.
The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map meets the vision of the Westside Master Plan and Plan Salt Lake
housing and growth initiatives. Furthermore, rezoning the property to R-1/5,000 meets the intent of the
zoning district which is to, “provide for conventional single-family residential neighborhoods on lots not less
than five thousand (5,000) square feet in size. This district is appropriate in areas of the City as identified in
the applicable community Master Plan. Uses are intended to be compatible with the existing scale and
intensity of the neighborhood. The standards for the district are intended to provide for safe and comfortable
places to live and play, promote sustainable and compatible development patterns and to preserve the
existing character of the neighborhood”.
The subject property is also near transit, parks, and other amenities which are intended to support housing in
the city. The proposed rezone is compatible with the neighborhood and supports the Westside community’s
vision for neighborhood growth as outlined in the Westside Master Plan.
NEXT STEPS
The Planning Commission’s recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council for their consideration as
part of the final decision on this petition. If the zoning map amendment is approved, the applicant may
proceed with subdividing and developing the property under the applicable R-1/5,000 zoning standards.

ATTACHMENT D: ANALYSIS OF STANDARDS
ZONING MAP AMENDMENTS
21A.50.050: A decision to amend the text of this title or the zoning map by general amendment is a matter
committed to the legislative discretion of the city council and is not controlled by any one standard. In making a
decision to amend the zoning map, the City Council should consider the following:
Factor Finding Rationale
1. Whether a proposed map
amendment is consistent
with the purposes, goals,
objectives, and policies of the
city as stated through its
various adopted planning
documents;
Complies with
Master Plan
policy statements
and Future Land
Use Map
The proposed Zoning Map Amendment meets the purpose and
vision of the Westside Master Plan and Plan Salt Lake.
Based on the existing land uses, development pattern and the
adopted master plans, rezoning the parcel to the R-1/5,000 zoning
district is appropriate for the following reasons:
• The proposed change in zoning is consistent with the future
land use map in the Master Plan which identifies this as a
neighborhood use near Community Nodes.
• The proposed change is in compliance with the future vision for
the area.
• The proposed zoning map amendment is aligned with the vision
and guiding principles contained in Plan Salt Lake.
2. Whether a proposed map
amendment furthers the
specific purpose statements
of the zoning ordinance.
Complies The proposed rezone is from single-family residential to single-
family residential. The purpose of residential zoning districts is:
“The residential districts are intended to provide a range of
housing choices to meet the needs of Salt Lake City’s citizens, to
offer a balance of housing types and densities, to preserve and
maintain the City’s neighborhoods as safe and convenient places to
live, to promote the harmonious development of residential
communities, to ensure compatible infill development, and to help
implement adopted plans.”
Other than the difference in the required minimum lot size, the purpose
statement of both the R-1/5,000 and R-1/7,000 Zoning Districts is to
provide for single-family neighborhoods with uses that are compatible
with the existing scale and intensity of the neighborhood.
The proposed rezone from R-1/7,000 to R-1/5,000 would support the
purpose statements within the zoning ordinance and is compatible
with the existing scale and intensity of the neighborhood.
3. The extent to which a
proposed map amendment
will affect adjacent
properties;
Complies As discussed in Consideration 2, while the surrounding properties are
zoned R-1/7,000, the existing development pattern more closely reflects
the R-1/5,000 zone. The lots in the platted 1890 subdivision were just
over 4,000 SF in size. Since being subdivided, most of the lots have been
consolidated with others, but even so, the majority of them are less than
the prescribed minimum lot size of 7,000 square feet.
If the zone change is approved and the subject property is subdivided
into two lots, the two lots would be compatible in size to the existing lots
PLNPCM2021-00709 14 October 27, 2021
and could be developed in a similar manner. The zone change would
reduce the lot size and setback requirements but would not change the
standards related to building height, lot width, lot coverage, or parking.
Staff does not anticipate there being adverse impacts related to the
change in zone from single-family to single-family.
4. Whether a proposed map
amendment is consistent
with the purposes and
provisions of any applicable
overlay zoning districts
which may impose additional
standards
Complies The subject property does not fall within an overlay zoning district.
5. The adequacy of public
facilities and services
intended to serve the subject
property, including, but not
limited to, roadways, parks
and recreational facilities,
police and fire protection,
schools, stormwater
drainage systems, water
supplies, and wastewater and
refuse collection.
Complies The petition was reviewed by the necessary city departments and
there were no concerns regarding the rezone. The applicant also
went to a DRT meeting to discuss subdividing the property if the
rezone is approved. The DRT comments are included in Attachment
F.
The property is located within an established residential
development where public facilities, roadways, and services are
existing. If the rezone is approved, any future subdivision or
development would be required to comply with the applicable R-
1/5,000 standards.

ATTACHMENT F: Department Comments
Planning staff routed the proposed rezone to Building, Engineering, Transportation, Public Utilities, Fire, and
Sustainability. There were no concerns regarding the rezone from any of the departments. Staff asked the applicant to
attend a DRT meeting prior to moving forward with the petition to make sure there were no upfront issues with
subdividing the property if the rezone were to be approved. The DRT group did not have any concerns regarding
subdividing the property under the R-1/5,000 zoning standards, but a formal review of a preliminary and final plat will
be completed if rezone is approved by the City Council. As of October 2021, internal ADUs are permitted uses and would
not be reviewed by Planning staff or approved by the Planning Commission.

1193 W California Avenue Zoning Map Amendment
STAFF CONTACT: Amanda Roman, Principal Planner
amanda.roman@slcgov.com or (801) 535-7660
DOCUMENT TYPE: Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council follow the recommendation of the Planning
Commission to approve the proposed Zoning Map amendment.
BUDGET IMPACT: None
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: Kesaia Young, the property owner of 1193 W California
Avenue, initiated a petition to amend the Zoning Map in July of 2021. The request is to rezone the
property from R-1/7,000 (Single Family Residential) to R-1/5,000 (Single Family Residential). On
October 27, 2021, the Planning Commission heard the petition and forwarded a positive
recommendation to the City Council to amend the Zoning Map. If approved, the property owner
intends to subdivide the property and build two new single family homes that will potentially
include two attached ADUs. The property owner anticipates retaining ownership of both
properties.
The proposed rezone is compatible with the platted South Salt Lake subdivision and reflects the
existing development pattern, which consists of single- and two-family dwellings on lots less than
7,000 square feet in size. The permitted and conditional land uses are identical in both the R-
1/7,000 and R-1/5,000 zones.
January 14, 2021
Lisa Shaffer (Jan 14, 2022 11:28 MST)
01/14/2022
01/14/2022
In addition to the difference in minimum lot square footage, the R-1/5,000 zone also has reduced
rear and side yard building setbacks. The proposed change would allow for the subdivision of the
property but is not expected to change the character of the neighborhood or have adverse impacts
on future growth.
If the zoning map amendment is approved, the property owner would be allowed to redevelop the
site in accordance with the R-1/5,000 (Single Family Residential) zoning district standards and
permitted land uses.
PUBLIC PROCESS:
•Information concerning this petition was sent to the chair of the Glendale Community
Council on July 27, 2021.
o The Glendale Community Council did not provide formal comments.
•The surrounding property owners within 300’ received an early notification by mail on
July 28, 2021.
•Public notification for the Planning Commission Hearing was mailed October 15, 2021 to
all neighbors within 300’ of the Zoning Map amendment site.
•The petition was heard by the Planning Commission on October 27, 2021. The Planning
Commission voted unanimously (8-0) to forward a positive recommendation to the City
Council regarding the proposed zoning map amendment.
o There were no public comments received prior to or during the Planning
Commission meeting.

2. Notice of City Council Public Hearing
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
The Salt Lake City Council is considering Petition PLNPCM2021-00709 1193 W California
Avenue Zoning Map Amendment – Salt Lake City received a request from Kesaia Young,
the property owner, to amend the zoning map for a property located at approximately 1193 W
California Avenue. The proposal would rezone the entire property from R-1/7,000 (Single
Family Residential) to R-1/5,000 (Single Family Residential). The amendment would allow the

dwelling. The Master Plan is not being changed. The property is located within Council
District 2, represented by Dennis Faris. (Staff contact: Amanda Roman at 801-535-7660 or

3. Original Petition
Linda Mitchell Accepted - July 12, 2021 PLNPCM2021-00709
Zoning Amendment Questionnaire
Parcel Number: 15141040010000
1.A statement declaring the purpose of the zoning amendment: The proposed Master Plan
zoning amendment change from the R-1-7000 designation to a R-1-5000 designation supports the
Westside Master Plan and 5YP for community growth through the subdivision of a large,
underutilized lot. This Master Plan zoning amendment will enable the parcel to support more
housing by subdividing the lot to build single-family homes with ADUs on each lot. The Growing
SLC: Five Year Housing Plan 2018-2022 (“5YP”) acknowledges that “such options would also help
restore the ‘missing middle’ housing types…restoring choices for a wider variety of household
sizes, from seniors to young families” (5YP pg. 19). The proposed development would allow for
two single family homes with ADUs on the large, underutilized lot while blending into the existing
neighborhood and provide housing solutions for diverse demographics (students, seniors, young
families, multi-generational families). The development can further materialize the objectives stated
in the Five Year Housing Plan. The first Goal expounded in the Five Year Plan recognizes the need
to “increase housing options…by seeking policy reforms that can enhance the flexibility of the
land-use code and create an efficient and predictable development process for community
growth” (5YP pg. 17).
2.A description of the proposed zoning amendment: The property is currently zoned as R-1-7000
Glendale Residential Neighborhood in the Westside Community. The purpose of the R-1-7000
Glendale residential neighborhood is to promote lots not less than seven thousand (7,000) square
feet in size, suitable for parts of Glendale locations. The proposed zoning designation for the
property is R-1-5000; a zoning designation that allows for a majority of single family homes, up to
twenty eight eight feet (28’) in height measured to the ridge of the roof. The master plan zoning
amendment would continue to allow lots not less than seven thousand (7,000) square feet in size
as envisioned in the Glendale residential neighborhood zoning, and would further provide the
flexibility to enhance housing type diversity in the neighborhood.
3.List the reasons why the present zoning may not be appropriate for the area: The current
zone does not accurately reflect much of the existing housing stock adjacent to the subject
property. In fact, the surrounding land uses, with the exception of the southern boundary and
across the street along the western boundary, are much more dense than what could be built on
the subject property under the current zone. Adjoining this property to the east is duplex on a lot
less than five thousand (5,000) square feet in size, as well as a single-family residential home on a
lot less than five thousand (5,000) square fees in size. One block to the east is a two story, stacked
condominium complex zoned RMF-35, arguably the most dense zoning island of property in the
area. Across California Avenue to the north are single family homes in the R-1-5000 Glendale zone,
and duplex multi-family homes in the R-2 Glendale zone, which is the reasoning behind the
proposed change of zoning that would be consistent with the majority of adjoining homes and
neighborhood directly across California Avenue.
Glendale is a unique and historic neighborhood including single-family and two-family dwellings
with a variety of yards, lot sizes, and bulk characteristics. The RMF-35 zone is really the outlier in
an area that is mostly surrounded by single-family and duplex housing types. Rezoning the
property to R-1-5000 will provide the ability to add additional housing that blends well with
neighboring community. At the same time the rezoning of the property will allow for the
“underutilized parcel to allow for small lot single-family residential…with ADU…in fill
development…that will meet size and design standards to ensure community compatibility,” which
is envisioned in Salt Lake City’s The Westside Master Plan (WMP pg. 33).
4.Is the request amending the zoning map? The request is amending the Zoning Map. The parcel
number to be changed is 15141040010000.
5.Is the request amending the text of the Zoning Ordinance? there is no request to amend the
text.

Zoning Map Amendment
PROPERTY ADDRESS: 2060 North 2200 West
PARCEL ID: 08-21-226-001-0000
MASTER PLAN: North Point Small Area Plan
ZONING DISTRICT: AG-2 (Agricultural District)
REQUEST: Chad Salmon, property owner, has submitted a zoning map amendment to amend the
existing AG-2 (Agricultural District) to M-1 (Light Manufacturing). The amendment is to implement
the master plan zoning and to accommodate future commercial land uses. The subject property is
located at 2060 North 2200 West. No specific site development proposal has been submitted at this
time.
RECOMMENDATION: Based on the findings in the staff report, Planning Staff recommends that the
zoning of the subject property located at 2060 N. 2200 W. be amended from AG-2 (Agricultural
District) to M-1 (Light Manufacturing) zoning district. Based on the information in this staff report
and the factors to consider for zoning map amendments, Planning Staff recommends that the
Planning Commission forward a positive recommendation to the City Council regarding this
proposal.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This is a request by a private land owner to amend the existing AG-2 (Agricultural District) to M-1 (Light
Manufacturing) zoning district. The property owner is seeking to amend the subject property to implement the
future land use designations noted in the applicable master plan and to increase the economic viability of the
subject property. M-1 (Light Manufacturing) zoning district aligns with the future anticipated use of the subject
property. Additionally, the properties located to the south along 2200 West were rezoned from BP (Business
Park) zoning district to M-1 (Light Manufacturing) zoning district in 2017. The horseshoe property surrounding
the subject parcel was rezoned from AG-2 to M-1 with final approval from the City Council in May 2021
(PLNPCM2018-00657).
Agricultural District (AG-2) VS. Light Industrial (M-1) Zoning
The following are the purpose statements of the AG-2 (existing zoning) and M-1 (proposed zoning) districts:
The purpose of the AG-2 Agricultural District is to preserve and protect agricultural uses in suitable
portions of Salt Lake City on lots not less than two (2) acres. These regulations are also designed to
minimized conflicts between agricultural and nonagricultural uses. This district is appropriate in areas
of the City where the applicable Master Plans support this type of land use.
The purpose of the M-1 Light Manufacturing District is to provide an environment for light
industrial uses that produce no appreciable impact on adjacent properties, that desire a clean attractive
industrial setting, and that protects nearby sensitive lands and waterways. This zone is appropriate in
locations that are supported by the applicable Master Plan policies adopted by the City. This district is
intended to provide areas in the City that generate employment opportunities and to promote economic
development. The uses include other types of land uses that support and provide service to
manufacturing and industrial uses. Safe, convenient and inviting connections that provide access to
businesses from public sidewalks, bike paths and streets are necessary and to be provided in an equal
way. Certain land uses are prohibited in order to preserve land for manufacturing uses and to promote
the importance of nearby environmentally sensitive lands.
The purpose of the amendment is to facilitate future commercial land uses along the 2200 West corridor and to
provide a contiguous district along 2200 West. The remaining AG-2 (Agricultural District) will be appropriately
buffered with the adopted amendments that were incorporated into the M-1 Zoning District regulations.
KEY ISSUES:
The key issues listed below have been identified through the analysis of the project, neighbor and community
input and department review comments.
1. Mater Plan Recommendations
2. Inland Port Overlay
Issue 1: Master Plan Recommendations
The Northpoint Small Area Plan was adopted in 2000 and includes the subject property. The plan shows the
future land use of this area as Business Park which was consistent with the zoning put in place during the
Citywide zoning amendment project in 1995. While the Northpoint Small Area Plan identifies the area as a
Business Park, it also states that the Business Park zone should be amended to allow retail and service type
businesses that would support the employee base in the area. The Business Park zoning district allows retail
and restaurant uses only if they are approved as part of an overall business park planned development. They
are not allowed as single uses on a property, which limits the feasibility of these uses occurring in the area.
In addition to the Business Park land use designation, the Northpoint Small Area Plan also states that future
business park development should be buffered from the existing agricultural properties. The buffer includes a
100 foot building setback, a 50 foot parking lot setback, and landscaping with a five foot tall berm.
Although the proposed Light Manufacturing zoning district is not strictly consistent with the future land use
designation as stated in the Northpoint Small Area Plan, it is Staff’s opinion that the zoning amendment is
consistent with the intent of the plan for the following reasons:
1. The plan highlights the need for retail and service uses to serve the future employee s of the area.
The Light Manufacturing district allows single-tenant retail and service uses, which would serve
the employees of the area.
2. The uses allowed in the Light Manufacturing District are required to be environmentally clean,
light industrial. Heavy manufacturing is not allowed in the Light Manufacturing zoning district.
Of note, the Northpoint Small Area Plan is in the beginning stages of a rewrite and update. That said, a privately
initiated petition must still be processed regardless of the update process. The request is subject to review
comparing the existing Northpoint Small Area Plan.
In addition to the Northpoint Small Area Plan, the proposal is also supported by Plan Salt Lake’s Economy
Principal and Initiatives. The plan discusses initiatives to support the growth of industrial areas of the City
(Initiative 9), as well as recruiting headquarters and large scale businesses.
Issue 2: Inland Port Overlay
The subject property is located within the boundaries of the Inland Port Overlay District (IP Overlay). The IP
Overlay was adopted in December 2018. One impact of the IP Overlay is that it allows for all properties in the
IP Overlay to follow the uses allowed in the M-1 Light Manufacturing Zoning District regardless of their
underlying or base zoning designation. Where uses are allowed in the M-1 district but not allowed in the
underlying base zone, the use is allowed through the Conditional Use process. As such, the full range of uses
allowed in the M-1 district would already be allowed on the AG-2 zoned subject properties via the IP Overlay
rules but some uses would have to go through the Conditional Use process since they are not allowed under
the AG-2 base zoning designation. The change in zoning designation therefore has negligible impact on what
could eventually be developed on the property and only impacts the approval process that must be followed
for approval depending upon the proposed use.
DISCUSSION:
The proposal complies with the standards for zoning map amendments, see Attachment D. After analyzing the
proposal and the applicable standards, Planning Staff is of the opinion that a positive recommendation should be
forwarded to the City Council for this request.
NEXT STEPS:
The City Council has the final authority to make changes to the zoning map. The recommendation of the Planning
commission for this request will be forwarded to the City Council for their review and decision.

and waterways. This zone is appropriate in locations that are supported by the applicable Master Plan
policies adopted by the City. This district is intended to provide areas in the City that generate
employment opportunities and to promote economic development. The uses include other types of
land uses that support and provide service to manufacturing and industrial uses. Safe, convenient
and inviting connections that provide access to businesses from public sidewalks, bike paths and
streets are necessary and to be provided in an equal way. Certain land uses are prohibited in order to
preserve land for manufacturing uses and to promote the importance of nearby environmentally

ATTACHMENT F: ANALYSIS OF STANDARDS
ZONING MAP AMENDMENTS
21A.50.050: A decision to amend the text of this title or the zoning map by general amendment is a
matter committed to the legislative discretion of the city council and is not controlled by any one standard.
In making a decision to amend the zoning map, the City Council should consider the following:
Factor Finding Rationale
1. Whether a proposed map
amendment is consistent with
the purposes, goals,
objectives, and policies of the
city as stated through its
various adopted planning
documents;
Complies As stated in the Key Issues section of this
report, changing the zoning of the subject
property to M-1 is consistent with the
Northpoint Small Area Master Plan and
Plan Salt Lake.
Staff is of the opinion that the proposal is
consistent with the intent of this master
plan. The regulations of the M-1 zoning
district were amended in 2017.
2. Whether a proposed map
amendment furthers the
specific purpose statements of
the zoning ordinance.
Complies Section 21A.02.030 of the Salt Lake city
Code provides the Purpose and Intent of
the Zoning Ordinance and states:
“The purpose of this title is to promote
the health, safety, morals, convenience,
order, prosperity and welfare of a
present and future inhabitants of Salt
Lake City, to implement the adopted
plans of the city, and to carry out the
purposes of the municipal land use
development and management act, title
10, chapter 9, of the Utah Code
Annotated or its successor, and other
relevant statutes.”
The purpose and intent statement then
provides eight additional points
describing the intent of the zoning code,
two of which are applicable to the rezone
proposal:
• Protect the tax base
• Foster the city’s industrial,
business and residential
development.
The purpose of amending the zoning of the
subject property is to maximize the
development potential by allowing more
land uses than allowed in the current zone
and expanding the development area of the
lots. This is consistent with the overall
purpose of the Zoning Ordinance in that it
promotes the “prosperity” of the “future
inhabitants of Salt Lake City.” It is also
consistent with the purpose and intent
points stated above.
3. The extent to which a proposed
map amendment will affect adjacent
properties;
Complies The surrounding property was rezoned to
M-1 in 2021, therefore, the affect is
considered to be minimal since the
proposal is for the same zone. Since the
property is located within the boundaries
of the Inland Port Overlay, the full range
of uses allowed in the M-1 zoning district
are allowed on the property under the
current AG-2 zoning designation
although they must follow the
Conditional Use process if the use is not
allowed in the underlying AG-2 zone.
The change in zoning designation
therefore only impacts the approval
process that must be followed depending
on the proposed use and has negligible
impact on what could be developed on
the subject property.
Staff finds the proposed map amendment
to M-1 will have a negligible impact on
surrounding properties given that M-1
uses are allowed on the property due to
the Inland Port Overlay.
4. Whether a proposed map
amendment is consistent with the
purposes and provisions of any
applicable overlay zoning districts
which may impose additional
standards
Complies The project area is partially located in the
Airport Flight Path Protection Zone A
and B. These overlay districts provides
special regulations that pertain to
building height and land use. In the event
that there is a conflict on a particular
property, the regulations in the overlay
district would prevail.
5. The adequacy of public
facilities and services
intended to serve the subject
property, including, but not
limited to, roadways, parks
and recreational facilities,
police and fire protection,
schools, storm water drainage
systems, water supplies, and
wastewater and refuse
collection.
Complies The proposal was reviewed by other city
division and no concerns were raised
regarding ability to service the subject
property under the M-1 development
capacity. All requests for a new use would
be reviewed to ensure compliance with
City codes and policies.
ATTACHMENT G: PUBLIC PROCESS AND COMMENTS

DOCUMENT TYPE: Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council follow the recommendation of the Planning
Commission to change the zoning map to M-1 (Light Manufacturing) from the current designation
of AG-2 (Agricultural) for one parcel.
BUDGET IMPACT: None.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Chad Salmon, property owner, has submitted a zoning map amendment to amend the existing
zoning of AG-2 (Agricultural District) to M-1 (Light Manufacturing). The subject property is
located at 2060 North 2200 West and is surrounded by M-1 zoning. The amendment is to
implement the master plan zoning and to accommodate future commercial land uses. No specific
site development proposal has been submitted at this time. For specific information regarding the
proposal, please refer to the Planning Commission Staff Report.
One parcel is part of this request and contains a single-family dwelling and related agricultural
accessory structures. The property is located within the boundaries of the Inland Port (IP) Overlay
District. The IP Overlay permits uses not currently allowed in the AG-2 zoning by allowing all M-
1 uses through the City’s conditional use process. The change in zoning designation only impacts
the approval process that must be followed for a proposed use and has negligible impact on what
could ultimately be developed on the property.

Subject:(EXTERNAL) Comments for Aug 25 Planning Commission mtg regarding PLNPCM2021-00575 (agenda item #5)
Date:Tuesday, August 24, 2021 12:24:49 PM
Importance:High
Salt Lake City under Mayor Mendenhall has been very active in promoting the planting of trees on
the westside in order to mitigate air pollution and improve the area. Additionally Ivory Homes has
augmenting the City’s efforts with their own 30,000 tree planting initiative. It is therefore more
than frustrating that the Planning Commission is now considering a re-zoning request which would
unnecessarily destroy a mature tree canopy on 2200 West. (See attached photos). Therefore,
members of the local Community Council, are submitting an objection to the AG-2 to M-1 rezoning
at 2060 N. 2200 West. Consideration of such rezoning should be delayed until the updated North
Point Master Plan is completed. Such planning will allow the City, in concert with residents,
professional planners, and other stakeholders to determine whether it is in the City’s best interest to
allow the numerous mature trees located on this parcel to be cut-down as part of an effort to
construct a Maverick gas station on the site.
The summary in the Aug 25th planning commission agenda (item #5) states the purpose of the
change is “to implement the master plan zoning…” This is not just misleading but incorrect. The
2060 N 2200 West property lies within the Northpoint Small Area Master Plan whose stated goal is
to “eliminate potential land use conflicts with the Salt Lake International Airport while preserving
and enhancing the existing agricultural lifestyle.” This master plan, adopted in 2000, does NOT
contain any M-1 zoning. Instead, the plan’s zoning map consists of parcels zoned BP (Business Park
), AG-2 and AG-5. Whether area properties should include M-1 zoning is one of the reasons both
developers and residents agree on the need to update the Northpoint Small Area Master Plan. The
community’s experience with Ivory Development in developing a BP zoning overlay for the area
illustrated the need and ability to update the master plan with strategies that resolve existing
problems. Not long afterward (Jan 2019) , the City Council agreed to fund such an update.
Currently Salt Lake City has entered a $100,000 contract with Logan Simpson to update this
master plan. Members of the consulting team have already attended community council meetings,
manned booths at community events, and started discussions with a diverse steering committee of
area stakeholders. This planning process needs to be supported rather than undermined. Such
efforts should not be “undercut” by adopting premature re-zoning proposals.
It is ironic that the Northpoint Small Area Master Plan came about as a result of circumstances
similar to what we face today. According to the Plan’s historical Introduction when Salt Lake City
took steps to rezone Northpoint for development residents pushed back. The City Council
responded in 1999 by adopting “a six-month moratorium to allow the creation of a small area plan
for Northpoint.” More than twenty years later, the residents of this unique area again ask the
City to adopt a moratorium to ensure the update master planning process is successfully
implemented.
Thank you for your consideration.

My name is Joseph Bigler and my parents are
staying at the Ramada by Road Home. I've been
living with my parents and our cat for 15 years,
the last 4 of which we have been homeless on
and off. My parents are 68 and 71 years of age, I
am 43 years old. I assumed when I attempted to
get into the Ramada that I would go with my
parents,yet I was deemed too young. I cannot
even visit them in their room,and have not seen

call from the lobby phone, hoping that I do not
miss his call. I have severe depression and need
to be with my parents.They help me daily,and I
know that they need me as well. I need
immediate help to get into the Ramada with my
folks.
Dear council members, I live relatively close to
this segment of the city and have watched its
development over the past 20 years. It's obvious
that any stagnant building or buildings or blocks
become nothing more then a transient home for
the homelessness that is abound. Gentrification
and growth opportunities for new businesses to
meet the ever growing,working,tax paying influx
is the smartest decision to make for this prime
1/27/2022 16:53 Homelessness John Huey real estate. I suggest using a portion of taxes
gained for cleaning up this mess up now to propel
a sanctuary or infrastructure for the homeless
and needy elsewhere would be prudent.The west
side has Vast amounts of property/dirt to house
and try out new ideas, new plans such as this
without disrupting an entire neighborhood. Build
jobs, build business,support and build more
places for mental and drug infirmity and let's
build the best downtown city in the country or
become another Seattle.Thank you for your time.

There has been a motor home parked in front of
the Family Dollar on 800 E. 200 S.for over a
month without moving. Living very close to this
address I have called parking enforcement several
times to ticket and have the vehicle removed.
They are saying because its"occupied"there is
nothing they can do and referred me to the
Homeless Outreach team (HEART).When calling
them,they are confused as to why they shoulld
2/1/2022 12:39 Andrew Ayrton be enforcing removal of a vehical. I understand
people are homeless,and may purchase a vehical
due to being priced out of rental or housing but
its not ok to alow them to park in residential
neighborhoods for over a month and live out of
that vehical.The city needs to move these folks to
a parking lot or find affordable housing for them
to relocate to. In this situation they clearly are
not staying close to family and therefore need to
be moved. Please enforce the 48 hr rule of
parking on ALL city streets.
Dear Council members,The part of the block that
contains the murals MUST be preserved.These
murals are an important part of SLC and U.S.
history,that must not be erased!!And of course,
this is sacred ground for the families of police
violence,who come there to mourn their loved
one.And,the George Floyd mural represents the
day that most of America became aware of our
racist and brutal police system,as we watched in
2/1/2022 17:21 Fleet Block Cynda Nygaard horror as his life was snuffed out before us.This,
too, is a part of our history that must never be
forgotten by us and the world!And,that event
resulted in finally seeing the wheel of justice
moving, albeit slowly, but moving...towards
police accountability.The decisions you all make
on preserving these murals or not,will make a
huge statement on what you stand for. I pray you
make the right decision,for this city, and for this
country...C. Nygaard SLC
Tear down and remove the murals. Build some
nice homes or business there, but get rid of those
murals.They are highly offensive,trashy,and
portray nothing but racism,and make salt lake
look like nothing more than a back alley drug
trade city.They are trashy and an complete
eyesore! If those buildings had murals of white
2/1/2022 17:23 Fleet Block Dave NA people everywhere we would get blasted for
portraying white supremacy,so why do we allow
ethnic people a double standard?It's pure
racism! No more murals that portray racism and
make salt lake undesirable to visit. I and many I
know do not visit that side of salt lake any longer
because of how trashy those buildings look,and
the double standard they portray.
Hi there--I think it's important that any
development of this area preserves the murals
that were painted during the 2020 social justice
movements.The murals themselves are stunning,
and the area has kind of organically become a
gathering place. I think we should formalize that--
2/1/2022 17:27 Fleet Block ROBIN Richards add green space,shade, places for people to sit
and ponder the murals.And given that the murals
memorialize people killed by the government(i.e.
the police), I think it would be incredibly
disrespectful--and literal white-washing--for
the government to develop the area in a way that
destroys the murals.Sincerely, Robin Richards
Draper
