2. Resolution: Ranked Choice Voting Overview and Pilot Project
The Council will consider approving a resolution to participate in the State-

included how the ranked-choice voting process works, how the elections would be
conducted, relevant bills in the Legislature’s 2021 General Session and public
education efforts.
Under ranked choice voting, voters rank the candidates in order of preference.
Election equipment tabulates the preference numbers for each ballot. If none of
the candidates receive more than 50% of the overall vote after the first round of
tabulation, the candidate with the least number of votes is eliminated. The voters
who had selected the eliminated candidate as their first choice would then have
their votes tabulated for their second-choice candidate. This process of
elimination continues until a candidate crosses the 50% threshold and is declared
the winner.

4. Resolution: Recycling Market Development Zone Program
The Council will consider adopting a resolution that would approve the
Sustainability Department’s application to the Recycling Market Development
Zone Program. The City has participated in the program since 2010. The State
program assists qualifying businesses that use or produce recycled materials in
their manufacturing operations, or compost, by providing State income tax
credits. Local government entities must apply to participate in the State’s
program every five years so qualifying businesses within their jurisdictions can
access the tax credits. The City’s application limits its program to businesses in
the M-1 and M-2 zoning designations and does not alter what is currently allowed
by zoning regulations.

Mayor Mendenhall, Tim Doubt, Rachel Otto, and Lisa Shaffer
briefed the Council with attachments. Mr. Doubt spoke on concerns and questions brought by the
Council, including:
• De-escalation training included in all recruitment training
and certification revolving around the use of force (a tactic

• Implicit Bias and Fair Policing classes were required for
officers.

• The “Blue Courage” class addressed officers holding one
another accountable and was currently required for all
officers (taken while attending Peace Officer Standards and
Training - POST), along with an “internal culture code” (909)
that could be called out by officers if they witnessed
another officer getting out of hand.
Mayor Mendenhall spoke on the following:
• A meeting occurred involving 14 members (elders & leaders) of
the black community, where the Police Department provided
information regarding restraint policy, implicit bias training,
and de-escalation training, with plans for ongoing
conversations/remaining engaged.
• Weeklong curfew had been put in place based on ongoing
assessment, open to amendment.
Councilmember Mano requested clarification on community
meetings (when they would occur), inquired why body cameras were
chosen to be eliminated from the budget, and requested to spend
more on the Police Budget (possibly utilizing a holding account to
assist in funding). Councilmember Wharton asked for clarification regarding
recruitment process for minority officers, information regarding
what it would cost to get the department additional de-escalation
training and asked if there was funding available for body cameras. Ms. Shaffer proposed a meeting to gather all financial
information requested.
Councilmember Dugan requested clarification on the
progression of the Community Advocacy Group during COVID-19.
Mr. Doubt offered clarification on the following items:
• Contact could be made through Public Relations or Public
Outreach on the website for meeting facilitation.
• Diverse recruitment had been a struggle in Utah due to location
and demographic. Community outreach had been a focus to assist
in this.
• Body camera funding previously came from sales tax revenue and
the current estimate was based on a vendor whose amount turned
out to be the incorrect cost (current quote was above budget).
Pooling cameras became the current standard while funding
details were getting worked out.
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MEETING TUESDAY, JUNE 2, 2020

Marina Scott, Kira Luke, Matthew Cassel, and Mary Beth Thompson briefed the Council with attachments.
Ms. Luke spoke on the following:
• The City could only disperse funds for the purpose that was
described on the ballot which was determined to be for Street
Reconstruction.
• The City had up to ten years to disperse the $87 million that

minimizing impacts on property taxes, ensuring there were enough
resources to do the work within the three years allotted to
spend the dispersed funds, once issued.
• The project planned with this funding was the reconstruction of
300 West.
Ms. Scott spoke on the following:
• Current plan called for the adoption of the bond resolution
on July 7, 2020 and to be sold on August 18, 2020.
• A true interest cost of 2% was anticipated, but not
guaranteed.

YOUTH STATE OF THE CITY REPORT
YOUTHCITY GOVERNMENT’S REPORT TO MAYOR MENDENHALL, CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
AND THE SALT LAKE CITY COMMUNITY
“EQUITABLE COMMUNITIES”
APRIL 20, 2021
The Youth State of the City Report informs Mayor Mendenhall, City Council Members and
others in the Salt Lake City community of the objectives and activities of YouthCity Government
(YCG). YCG’s mission is to introduce young people to the political process through civic
engagement and community service.
Introduction
Hi, I’m Haddie Wall. I am a senior at Rowland Hall and I live in Council District 6. Ever since I
was little, whenever someone would ask me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would answer
“a doctor.” You see, both of my parents work in the field, loved their jobs, and in my young
mind, went to work everyday and pulled people from the hands of death, saving their lives when
nothing else could. What I didn’t understand was that while my parent’s jobs were important,
they were temporary solutions to much greater problems than I had the capacity to grasp at that
point in my life. For a little context, my parents work at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center
here in Salt Lake City. Everyday they see people whose lives were affected by mental health
issues, drug addiction, homelessness, obesity, and a host of other problems. These were people
2 | Page
who had served their country, in many cases out of necessity to receive an education. They had
returned only to be left behind by the government they had fought to protect. I want to
acknowledge that I don’t want to overgeneralize the existence of all veterans. Behind each
patient and is a person who has a much more complex background. But that's just the issue, for
obvious privacy reasons I wasn’t being told the stories of any patients that my parents saw, I was
only able to pick up on patterns of my parent’s days. Despite the complexity and singularity of
each individual, many were being affected by the same problems, a clear indication that there is
some greater issue, a flaw in the system. The patients my parents were seeing were all from
Utah, or the surrounding areas, and had military benefits which meant that the majority of them
were white cisgender men. For the most part, these patients weren’t even being affected by the
consequences of systemic racism and generational trauma. Now, these were all concepts I had
not yet pieced together or fully understood. The shift for me came when I realized I loved history
and couldn’t figure out how I could pursue this interest and also be a doctor. That’s when I
learned that many lawyers study history in college. Of course, with law being the other poster
child of a successful career I decided that's what I was meant to do. In order to expose myself to
government practices and learn more about how law functions from day to day, I joined YCG
during my Junior year of high school. At that point in time, I had little experience with local
government as well as little understanding of issues that were being debated at the state and
municipal level, and I think it showed. But that’s what was so great about YCG, my opinions
simply as a young person in Salt Lake City were valued and I was always encouraged to learn by
listening. What was perhaps the most exciting part was that we were exposed to the schedules of
local elected officials and the genuine processes for how policy change is made. Through all this
exposure, I began to understand how the patterns I was seeing in my parents’ work with veterans
3 | Page
were addressed through sweeping reforms. While what my parents do is necessary, working in
local government has the potential to create more lasting change for large groups of people,
instead of temporary fixes for individuals. My idealized picture of a big-time politician
practicing law in Washington DC slowly unraveled. I realized that policies that make the most
impact in the daily lives of constituents are those that happen at a municipal and state level.
While I’m not sure exactly what I want to do after college. YCG has given me the tools and
awareness to understand the potential of a path in government and the knowledge of how to
engage in our political systems. Thus, I am very excited to introduce what we have been working
on this year to generate positive impacts for our community here in Salt Lake City.
Equitable Communities
Good evening, my name is Daffodil Buchert. I am a junior at East High school and I live in
Council District 4. During the 2021 General Session of the 64th Legislature, YCG tracked a
number of bills that we were interested in. From police reform to declaring racism a moral and
public health crisis to sex education, we learned about how state policies directly impact us, our
community and our City. We followed these bills and resolutions because we felt that they were
especially relevant to current events and our world today.
YCG has worked to display the importance and responsibility of being involved in local
government. One of the ways to do so is to be aware of the state government and its proceedings.
Those proceedings and decisions in the legislative session trickle down into our local
governments, and so, we must be conscious of what is being decided at higher levels.
4 | Page
This past year, we have seen countless instances of police brutality and racism that have spurred
our interest in police reform bills as well as legislation that addressed systemic racism. YCG
members want our state and our city officials to do their part to address these important policy
issues through legislation/ordinances. YCG members believe it is our responsibility as citizens to
work towards racial equality and equity. We felt the need to keep up with legislation that
addressed these policy concerns. After hearing about the murders of George Floyd and Daunte
Wright, among others, at the hands of the police, we have worked to learn about what can
prevent killings such as these. De-escalation training and mental health and other crisis
intervention responses can affect this issue, which is why we focused on HB162 Peace Officer
Training Amendments, HB84 Use of Force Reporting Requirements and HB264 Law
Enforcement Weapons Use Amendments sponsored by Representative Angela Romero. With
HJR13 Declaring Racism a Moral and Public Health Crisis sponsored by Representative Sandra
Hollins, we saw the chance to combat racism in our state. YCG members were deeply
disappointed that HJR13 failed to pass the House Floor. We were fortunate enough to meet with
Representative Hollins after the session and share our support of her efforts. Racism is a huge
concern for us, and we are interested in anything that works to fight it. Acknowledging that it is
real and that it is a problem is the first step.
YCG member also closely followed HB177 Health Education Amendments sponsored by
Representative Carol Spackman Moss. Reflecting on our own experiences with sex education in
schools, we recognized the need to expand it to become more comprehensive. HB177 proposed
to include consent in schools’ sex education, along with “sexual assault resource strategies.”
These additions to sex education are needed to create a fuller understanding of sex education, as
5 | Page
well as to work to improve statistics in Utah of sexual harassment and assault. The culture that
comes along with being uninformed about consent is dangerous and incidents of sexual
harassment and assault have long-lasting and extremely damaging impacts upon survivors. YCG
members feel that the measure to teach consent in schools will positively affect our current
culture. Like HJR13, HB177 failed to pass the House Floor. We hope that Representative Carol
Spackman Moss brings back HB177 next legislative session.
YCG students will continue to work on educating our peers about consent. This summer, we are
partnering with the Utah Coalition Against Sexual Assault (UCASA) to plan their 1st Annual
Healthy Relationships Youth Summit.
YCG members will continue to follow the state legislature with interest, and with the knowledge
that state level policy directly impacts local government and our community. We look forward to
continuing our involvement in issues we find to be important and need to be improved.
Our Voices
Hello, my name is Mia Feldman. I am a sophomore at East High School and I live in Council
District 5. Council Members, I “stand” before you as a youth representative. Being a part of
YCG has given me and my fellow members the opportunity to witness and understand policies
moving throughout our legislature, oftentimes, these policies are affecting the youth’s day-to-day
life. Being able to have conversations and identify problems is why YCG has been an important
element in how we understand the importance of education in the realm of social justice. Our
6 | Page
voices are oftentimes found distant from those of our older counterparts, but by implementing
programs like YCG we can create more visibility for the voice that drives social change.
Programs like YCG empower youth and gives them a place to belong. The benefits of having a
place to belong create safer environments for open-minded conversations and allow for youth to
feel valued and respected. As a youth advocate, having a platform where my opinion is valued
and respected allows me to be fully engaged with my surrounding community. Because of this,
my fellow YCG members and I are able to encourage and promote youth advocacy and continue
welcoming different perspectives and ideologies for the bettering of our society.
Being mentored by Angela and Gregoria has given us the opportunity to glimpse into the
political realm, an opportunity most kids don’t get. Because of this, we have been able to keep a
closer eye on legislative bills and their outcomes. Understanding the importance of political
policies is a key component for understanding politics matters. YCG has set us up for success
by grasping the importance of why you should care who wins our next election and how that
election is going to set up the structure of your community. Policies can drive social outrage, or
they can drive social change, but who you vote for can determine the decisions being made. So,
if we educate youth at a young age, we can promote the mindset to stand up for what we believe
in.
This year, we had the opportunity to work with the Utah Food Bank, and social media was our
most effective platform. Social media is vastly driven by youth for youth. Because of this, we
can find more ways to reach youth voices and hear youth voices. Mayor Mendenhall was able to

promote our MLK Day of Service on her Instagram story, this allowed us to reach more young
people and allowed for more promotion within our youth communities. Mayor Mendenhall is a
perfect example of a platform YCG members were able to utilize to benefit their advocation
within their community.
Personally, understanding the importance of MLK Day of Service this year, helped me
understand the importance of getting involved. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “All men are created
equal”, but that also entails that all voices should be heard equally as well. Having the
opportunity to actively serve marginalized groups is why community service is so important.
Voices are heard louder when they’re pronounced in unity, so we need to start hearing ALL
voices now.
YCG has taught us that youth do play an important role in society. This program has taught us
the many values of serving our community, understanding policy decisions, and continuing
advocate for social justice. Implementing more programs like YCG will benefit youth
communities and give youth advocates a place to belong. Though many don’t think so, a large
portion of legislative decisions continues to affect our day-to-day life. These decisions are being
made without youth involvement which can potentially hurt a majority of the young people in
our communities. YCG is the first of many steps we’re taking to make sure youth feel heard. It’s
time to hear all of our voices.
Conclusion
8 | Page
Hi, my name is Gregoria Alegria. I am the intern for YCG and a third-year student majoring in
International Studies with a focus in Human Rights at the University of Utah. I live in Council
District 3. I want to thank Mayor Mendenhall, Council Members, Angela Romero, Damian Choi,
and Kim Thomas for providing us with the opportunity, resources, freedom, and availability to
grow our knowledge, act on our passions and contribute to the growth and development of this
amazing City. It has been a great experience to be able to intern for YCG and help lead,
coordinate, and manage this amazing group of students. I also want to take this time to show my
immense gratitude and pride to our graduating seniors Sophie Dau and Hattie Wall. I have
enjoyed seeing their growth as student leaders and change makers. I have learned so much from
them.
As mentioned by YCG members, we spent majority of our time discussing systemic racism and
how it impacts us at a local, state and national level. Last week, YCG members hosted a panel
discussion titled “Black History is Utah History” in partnered with the Salt Lake City Public
Library and the Salt Lake City Mayor’s Office. YCG students wanted to host this panel after an
Ogden school made national headlines for allowing their students to opt-out of Black History
Month curriculum. The panel was moderated by Representative Sandra Hollins and Salt Lake
City School Board Member Mohamed Baayd served on the panel with YCG students. The panel
discussion was a great success and Representative Hollins invited YCG students to be part of the
ethnic studies in public school’s coalition. The goal of the coalition is to develop an ethnic
studies K-12 model curriculum for Utah schools.

Through my work as YCG’s intern, I have grown as a leader, as a community member, and as a
student. I have been able to share my experience, my knowledge, and my passions with the
students and I have also learned from them.
Mayor Mendenhall, Council Members and residents of Salt Lake City, thank you for listening to
me and these amazing students. I encourage you to continue to have discussions around systemic
racism and its impact on our City. We share your concerns and are ready to assist you in building
a more vibrant, inclusive and equitable City.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Revenue for FY 2019-20 Budget Adjustments
The Fiscal Year 2021 projections are coming in below budgeted revenues. The following chart
shows a current projection of General Fund Revenue for fiscal year 2021.
The City is currently projecting a $4.4 million decrease in budgeted revenue. The largest portion
of the decrease is attributed to a $1.2 million decrease in Fines and Forfeitures, a $1.8 million
decrease in Parking Meter Revenues and a $1.4 million decrease in Miscellaneous Revenues.
These decreases are offset by a projected net increase of $1.2 million in Licenses and Permits.
The increase in Licenses and Permits is in spite of airport parking/license tax showing a
decrease due to decreased travel as a result of COVID. The decrease in airport parking and
licenses is $2,345,000. Innkeepers tax has also been hit hard by COVID and is projecting a
decrease of $1,717,500. According to the local news, hotels are experiencing 30% occupancy
compared to this time of year in previous years. Business license are also expected to be below
budget due to trends for apartment units, new business license and renew business licenses.
These losses are offset by gains in permits & zoning building permits (+$1.8M), plan check fees
(+$1.9M), and street excavation (+$1.7Mdue to a temporary boost from Google contract). The
City is currently monitoring a bill (HB 98) in the State Legislature that may reduce revenue in
the planned check fees/building permit area.
Fines and Forfeitures are projected below budget due to a decrease in parking ticket revenue of
$800k. With COVID cases still at 1,000+ cases/day, citation revenue is still about 1/3 of a
regular year. Justice Court fines are also down $62K while moving violations are down$315K.
Due to COVID restrictions the Administrative Office of the Courts has a limited amount of court
activity via WebEx. In those cases that are being seen, defendants are not ordered to pay their
fines, they are not being sent to collections and no warrants are being issued. Other areas are also

seeing decreases from the pandemic, traffic school revenue is projected to be below budget by
$37k and vehicle booting is trending down $12,000 trending based on current actuals.
Parking Meter Collection is slightly less than half of the previous fiscal year due to an overall
decrease in traffic downtown. This is driving the significant decrease of $1.8 million.
Additionally, Miscellaneous Revenue has also been affected by the pandemic with decreases in
accounts receivable collections, special event revenue, fuel reimbursement due to the Mayor’s
emergency declaration and utility reimbursement.
Given the available information fund balance would be projected as follows:
City Fund Balance remains above fifteen percent, after projected use of fund balance in the current amendment and the reducti on in

The Administration is requesting a budget amendment totaling $48,142,871.14 of revenue and
expense of $22,758,707.14. The amendment proposes changes in fifteen funds, with $6,042,080
from the General Fund fund balance. The proposal includes 46 initiatives for Council review.
The Budget amendment includes the addition of three new positions and the transfer of two
positions from the General Fund to the IMS Fund. The additional positions are one within the
Fire Department to help manage Emergency Management and two grant funded positions. The
revision includes a request for $1,000,000 for maintenance on the central plant boiler for the City
and County Building as well as the Library and Leonardo.
Finance staff worked specifically with the Police Department to work through additional needs
in the Police Department. The seven items specific to the Police Department were compared to
available budget and future needs. The comparison included a look at current staffing levels and
projected hiring and other costs. This cultural shift allowed the Administration to provide clear
direction for the Police Department moving forward.
A summary spreadsheet document, outlining proposed budget changes is attached. The
Administration requests this document be modified based on the decisions of the Council.
The budget opening is separated in eight different categories:
A. New Budget Items
B. Grants for Existing Staff Resources
C. Grants for New Staff Resources
D. Housekeeping Items
E. Grants Requiring No New Staff Resources
F. Donations
G. Council Consent Agenda Grant Awards

Section A: New Items
A-1: National League of Cities Conference GF $300,000.00
Department: Economic Development Prepared By: Ben Kolendar / John Vuyk
The 2021 National League of Cities ‘City Summit’ is a conference of municipal leaders from around the country which will
be hosted in Salt Lake City in November 2021. The purpose of this funding will include but not be limited to venue rentals,
catering, transportation, the planning and execution of mobile workshops, marketing needs and staff time for the estimated
2,500 in-person conference attendees. The funding is a contractual requirement of the host city of $300,000, which was
awarded following a competitive bidding process which took place during the Becker administration and included a
resolution of support from the Council.
A-2: World Trade Center Membership GF $50,000.00
Department: Economic Development Prepared By: Ben Kolendar / John Vuyk
The World Trade Center Utah leads Utah’s international business development and elevates Utah’s global status to
promote prosperity and build economic resilience. A membership at the Ambassador level gains SLC a seat on the WTC
steering committee, a complimentary registration for one of the Governor’s trade missions, and other benefits. Given the
City’s current position in the face of major development and the desire to attract world-class and cutting-edge tech and
other business, this membership would give us another avenue and greater connections.
A-3: Encampment Reestablishment GF $650,000.00
Department: Police Prepared By: Shellie Dietrich
The Administration is requesting $650,000 of funding, to provide funding for the Community Commitment
Program to provide staffing by the Police Department to support the homeless encampment community re-
establishments. Police officers working extra overtime shifts will provide security to ensure the Health
Department and outreach workers can proceed in an environment that will be safe for all involved. Depending
on the size and location of the camp, 30 to 45 officers would be needed with up to six sergeants. The
assignments will take between 8 and 10 hours each day.
The Police Department has already supported over 1000 health department activities in 2020 including
operations prior to, during and after camp mitigation. The current estimate is that 500 additional re-
establishments (based on over 1000 camp health department cleanups in the previous 12 months) would take
place throughout the remainder of fiscal year. Estimating that there would be one major camp per month from
January to June for two days each and minor camps requiring resources equal to 1 day per week would mean
the Police Department would need $650,000 additional funding for FY2021 as shown below.
Activity # days Officers # hours Rate Amount Requested
Major Cleanups 12 40 10 65$ 312,000$
Minor Cleanups*26 20 10 65$ 338,000$

A-4: Emergency Management Moved to Fire GF -$703,683.00
GF $735,527.00
Department: Fire Prepared By: Clint Rasmussen
The Salt Lake City Fire Department has proposed to assume and assimilate the Emergency Management team into our
department. The prospect of this change is an enormous challenge but one that can and will be accomplished through the
Fire Department by multiple objectives. The formal vision as identified by FEMA and adopted by multiple agencies is to
"Promote safer, less vulnerable communities with the capacity to cope with hazards and disasters".
Although complete integration and development of the EM Bureau would take several months to a year, SLCFD will begin
working on programs and projects on day one, initially focusing on the following:
Developing the organizational structure of the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and its place within SLCFD
chain of command and Salt Lake City administration.
Providing emergency preparation, mitigation, and NIMS training for individual City departments.
*For a complete list of goals and objectives, please see attachment*
To achieve these objectives, SLC Fire is requesting additional resources in 2 phases.
Phase I: (begins March 1, 2021 with this Budget Amendment)
Emergency Management Director reclassified to Fire Division Chief (vacancy savings of $37,778 plus one-time costs of
$1,500)
1 new Fire Captain (4-month cost of $45,622 plus one-time costs of $1,500)
Executive Staff Wage Initiative ($21,000)
Total Cost for FY21 $31,844
Full Year Cost for FY22 $219,875
Phase 2: (begins July 1, 2021 and requests will be made through the annual budget cycle)
2 new FTEs - 1 Fire Captain ($136,865) and 1 Accountant ($63,517)
Battalion Chief Wage Initiative (13 FTEs - $69,516)
Administrative Staff Wage Initiative ($8,440)
Total Cost for FY22 = $278,338
A-5: Outdoor Business Activity Assistance Program GF $100,000.00
Department: Economic Development Prepared by: Ben Kolendar / John Vuyk
The purpose of this program is to assist small businesses expand outdoor business activities. Administered by DED, the
program will reimburse City fees associated with outdoor business activities, such as dining, retail, and supporting events,
and provide grants to fund the purchase of equipment associated with outdoor business activit ies.

A-8: US Department of the Treasury; Emergency Rental
Assistance
Misc. Grants $6,067,033.00
Department: CAN Prepared By: Lani Eggertsen-Goff
US Department of the Treasury deposited $6,067,033.20 into the City's bank account on January 22, 2021. These
Emergency Rental Assistance (ERA) program funds are supplemental to the CARES Act funding and available to cities with
populations over 200,000.
The Department of Treasury Emergency Rental Assistance (ERA) program makes funds available to assist households that
are unable to pay rent and utilities due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Funding is targeted to households that are at or below
80% of the area median income, demonstrates a risk of experiencing homelessness or housing instability, and has
experienced a reduction in household income and/or incurred significant costs and/or experienced financial hardship due
to COVID-19.
The Department of Treasury regulations set forth that 90% of the funds ($5,460,329.88) must be used for direct financial
assistance, including rent, rental arrears, utilities and home energy costs, utilities and home energy costs arrears, and oth er
expenses related to housing. The remaining 10% ($606,703.32) may be used for housing stability services, including case
management and other services intended to keep households stably housed, and administrative costs.
With the addition of US Treasury funding, HAND requests a portion of the 10% be utilized to support 2 full time, time
limited, staff persons. These staff will facilitate the City administration, coordination, and compliance monitoring. The two
(2) requested positions would be Grade 26 Community Development Grant Specialists at a fully loaded annual cost of
$205,512. These positions would sunset when funding expires. Due to the short-term nature of these positions, HAND
would consider the use of temporary staffing agencies to fill the positions.
This budget amendment will create the ability for the City to accept the allocation from the Department of Treasury and
create appropriate expense and revenue budgets for the direct financial assistance and housing stability/administration
budgets.
See the attached guidance for more information.
A-9: Move City GIS Personnel to IMS GIS Division General Fund $0.00
IMS $62,571.00
Department: CAN/IMS Prepared By: John Vuyk
The Administration is proposing to move two FTE's from CAN to IMS. The individuals work directly in the GIS function for
the City. The amendment consolidates these two employees within IMS and the GIS division there. The amendment is cost
neutral because the General Fund would reimburse the IMS fund for the employees.
A-10: Inland Port Tax Revenue GF $0.00
Department: Finance Prepared by: John Vuyk
As part of the City's annual financial audit, the City was informed it needs to budget and account for City tax revenue withi n
the boundaries of the Inland Port. Because the tax revenue is dispersed directly to the inland port, the City does not receive
the tax revenue. The City will budget a line item to recognize the tax revenue and a corresponding contra -account, so City
revenue is not overstated.

During labor negotiations this past summer the Fire and AFSCME labor unions agreed to no compensation adjustments
due to COVID and its impact on the City. The Administration agreed to meet with both labor unions about possible
adjustments in January based on where the City's financial position was.

A-12: Police Crime Lab Needs Assessment CIP – Police
Impact Fee
$80,000.00
Department: CAN Prepared By: Dan Ripp / Kalli Ruiz
In 2013, Police completed a needs assessment for a partnership and co -ownership between Salt Lake City and West Valley
City for a future crime lab. While this partnership and plan was never implemented and with the cri me lab lease expiring
in October 2024, the need remains for the City to expand its crime lab as the current crime lab model and lease was
intended as a short-term solution. In addition, as an instrument to inform the forthcoming Impact Fee Facility Plan
update, a comprehensive needs assessment is necessary to also detail a 10-year strategic plan that will measure current
capacity as well as the necessary police facility expansion needs proportionate to the City’s population growth.
Funding exists within the police impact fees; this request is for an appropriation of budget from those funds.

holding account. By the time the funds were released from the holding account the Transportation division was
unable to get anything under contract or encumber the funds before they fell to General Fund fund balance.
D-5: Transportation – On-Demand Ride Services (Trips to Transit) GF -$800,000.00
GF $800,000.00
Department: CAN Prepared By: Jon Larsen
The Salt Lake City Transit Master Plan (2017) identifies On-Demand Ride Services (Trips to Transit) as a key strategy for
serving low-density, single-use areas of the City. The goals of the Trips to Transit program, consistent with those of the
Master Plan itself, are to improve air quality, increase the number of people taking transit, provide a safe and comfortable
transit access experience, provide a complete transit system that supports a transit lifestyle, provide access to opportunity
for likely riders who are underserved, and to create economically vibrant, livable places that support use of transit.
This program will provide on-demand intra-zonal service, which will connect residents, visitors, and commuters between
fixed route transit services and areas of the City that are largely residential, as identified in the Transit Master Plan. Th e
areas in the plan include Rose Park, Glendale, the Upper Avenues, and the East Bench. Travel modeling has yielded the
recommendation that an initial pilot would be most successful and serve the greatest number of riders in Rose Park, with a
short connection to the Route 9 and Route 4 end-of-line near Redwood Road and 400 South. Adding Poplar Grove and
Glendale to this service area would make the pilot even more useful to more residents.
UTA has piloted such a service in Southwest Salt Lake County, and it has proven very popular and more cost effective than
fixed route service in connecting people to the major transit lines. City staff has evaluated the cost of contracting directly
with a provider compared with operating the same service in collaboration with UTA, and the latter is both more affordable
and better integrated with the existing transit system. In addition, if the pilot proves to be equal to or better than current
service provided by inefficient routes, resources for those routes can be reinvested in two Council priority routes on 600
North/500 East and 1000 North/South Temple.
To launch those two routes in 2022, it is important to launch Trips to Transit as soon as possible , with a goal of August
2021. This will allow time for the service to become established and evaluated. This initial request will fulfill start-up costs,
and an additional request of approximately $1,000,000 from Funding our Future will be included in the FY22 budget.
D-6: Public Utilities Bond Proceeds and Debt Service Water $1,002,936.00

D-10: Tree Removal Mitigation Funding $520,150.00
Department: Public Services Prepared By: Dawn Valente
In certain instances, when trees are removed or destroyed, the planting of replacement trees is required. When the
required replacement trees cannot be planted in the vicinity of the removed tree, the City assesses a Tree Removal
Mitigation fee. The revenue from this fee is then utilized to purchase, plant, and maintain trees on public property. As a
result, the City is able to mitigate the negative impacts of tree removal by planting new trees and providing higher levels of
maintenance for the urban forest.
The cash balance in this account as of February 11, 2021 is $525,876.78. This budget request is to appropriate an
additional expense budget of $520,150 to the $5,719.02 budget currently approved.
D-11: Frequent Transit Network (FTN) CIP Funding Allocation CIP $0.00
Department: CAN Prepared By: John Vuyk
The Council adopted a transfer of $1,100,000 to CIP for the FTN . In the CIP funding log the Council approved $22,000 for
cost overrun and $11,000 for Percent for Art, but did not approve the remaining funds of $1,067,000 for projects
associated with the FTN, including bus stop improvements, crosswalks, pedestrian safety , transit-related signal upgrades,
ADA enhancements, first/last mile connections, etc.
This amendment is to acknowledge Council approval of the use of these funds to complete these projects.

Memorandum

Public Services Department
TO: Lorna Vogt, Public Services Director
FROM: Cameron Scott P.E. – Commissioning Authority
DATE: 04 February 2021
RE: Central Plant Boiler Failure - Briefing
Boiler #1 in the Central Plant is one of two low pressure steam boilers serving heating loads in
the Public Safety Building, Library, Leonardo, and City/County Building. Boiler #1 has a
catastrophic failure. The fire tubes have rusted and calcium built up to the point where the tube
has rusted out and is leaking fuel into the water side. The result is a natural-gas leak that filled
the boiler room and if ignited could have caused an explosion. The boiler is a “Universal” brand
boiler. Universal Boilers have filed bankruptcy and are no longer providing support or
replacement parts. Unfortunately, both boilers are Universal boilers. Boiler #2 has the same
problem, but is still operational, but could fail any time. Colvin Engineering recommends steam
boiler replacements. The purpose of this memo is to present a suitable replacement option and
propose funding options.
Boiler Replacement Information
The heating plant operates during the months of October to May. Replacement of like-for-like
boilers is not recommended as it is greater in cost and less efficient. The recommended
replacement is 3 boilers and a pre-heater instead of a deaerator. Switching to a modular design
will build in redundancy and allow boilers to be repaired without affecting performance. The
overall efficiency will increase due to not running steam through the deaerator and the boilers
will increase from 84% to 86%. The equipment will be able to turn down during the summer
months to supply reheat for the Leonardo and main library. Due to the vertical design of the
boilers, the equipment estimate life is 30 years. Estimated time to receive boilers after notice to
proceed is approximately 16 weeks. The manufacture will also include a 10-year warranty.
Estimated Costs
Equipment cost is estimated to be around $960,000. We are estimating design, installation, and
contingency to be an additional $1,540,000. Once we have approval and funding to purchase the
boilers, our mechanical contractor can provide a bid to install the boilers. Engineering has a state
contract with American Mechanical that can purchase the equipment and install the equipment.
Funding Options
○ Option #1 Fund the full $2,500,000 with General Fund fund balance in FY21
Advantages
o Fully funded
o Other planned capital renewal projects will not be affected.
Disadvantage
o Large use of General Fund fund balance
○ Option #2 FY21 Capital Renewal Funding $1,500,000 and $1,000,000 General
Fund fund balance FY21
Use FY21 existing Capital Renewal funds on projects that can be delayed entirely or in a
portion in the amount of $1,500,000 to pay for a portion of the cost of the project. The
additional $1,000,000 needed will be requested from the General Fund fund balance in
FY21.
Advantage
o Smaller use of General Fund fund balance in FY21
Disadvantages
o Current funded projects will have to pushed off until we receive future
capital renewal funding. See list below for projects to be delayed.
o FY22 Capital Renewal funding has not yet been approved. The request
submitted was for $5,860,449 to continue coverage of priority 1 and
priority 2 assets. The projects delayed will become the first projects to be
completed with any FY22 funding received and could possibly push other
projects out should funding not be available to proceed with priority 1 and
priority 2 replacements.
FY 21 Planned Projects to be Delayed:
City & County Building - General Exhaust Fan
Fire Station #2 - Replace Roof
Fire Station #5 - Replace General Exhaust Fan

for 2021-2022.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The City is an entitlement entity and eligible under Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 24, Part 91, et. al., to receive 2021-2022 CDBG funds in the
amount of $3,518,665, ESG funds in the amount of $299,267, HOME funds in the amount of
$974,863, and HOPWA funds in the amount of $674,671 from HUD for the 2021-2022 program
year.
In addition, the City will also reallocate CDBG funds in the amount of $572,667, and ESG funds
in the amount of $9,450; and will also allocate HOME program income in the amount of
$674,926.
To receive and reallocate these funds, the City is required to adopt the Action Plan allocating
HUD funds that benefit residents. The following table represents the entitlement funding the City
will receive for the 2021-2022 program year.
Grant Amount
Community Development Block Grant $ 3,518,665
Emergency Solutions Grant $ 299,267
HOME Investment Partnership Program $ 974,863
Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS $ 674,671
The following table represents the dollar amounts for funds that will be recaptured and available
for reallocation for the 2021-2022 program year.
Grant Amount
Community Development Block Grant $ 572,667

The following table represents the dollar amounts of program income that will be made available
for allocation for the 2021-2022 program year.
Grant Amount

The City Attorney’s Office reviewed the included resolution (Exhibit A) and approves it as to
form.
The Community Development and Capital Improvement Program (CDCIP) Advisory Board and
the Housing Trust Fund Advisory Board (HTFAB) reviewed applications for CDBG and ESG
and HOME and HOPWA respectively. After thorough review and scoring each board made
funding recommendations. The boards use an estimated amount of funding for each grant, based
upon the grant award from the prior federal funding year. The boards also included
recommendations on projects that should receive more, or less, funding if the final allocation
amounts would be different than amounts estimated at the time of the board meetings. The
boards’ recommendations were forwarded to the Mayor for review and consideration. The final
2021-2022 One-Year Annual Action Plan funding log (attached to Exhibit A) for all grants will
be attached to the resolution after the City Council has made final funding decisions.
The City had the unique opportunity to provide emergency funding to address the impacts of the
COVID-19 pandemic. While the requests expressed in the 2021-22 One Year Action Plan
Funding Recommendations Log are not in response to the pandemic, there is some overlap for
agencies that received funding from the City. The table below represents the COVID-19
pandemic resources that have been deployed over the last twelve months. These grants are
administered by HAND.

*Funding Our Future programs are not in direct response to COVID-19, however, many of the housing stability
needs were amplified due to the pandemic and FOF supports are provided currently.
PUBLIC PROCESS: From July to October 2020, HAND staff conducted a survey to engage
members of the public and receive input on how federal funding could be prioritized. In the past
HAND staff would have attended over a dozen in-person community events. Due to COVID-19
precautions, HAND Staff worked with the City’s Civic Engagement team and pivoted to an
online community engagement survey, reaching out electronically to Salt Lake City’s resident,
Recognized Community Organizations, and over 100 non-profits and community partners. The
survey was offered in English and Spanish. Additionally, to hear from vulnerable populations
without access to computers, paper versions of the survey were safely collected at the Homeless
Resources Centers, two adult Detox locations, the Homeless Youth Resource Center, the
Sorensen Community Center, and two local food banks. A total of 879 responses were received.
The public was asked to give input on their top priorities of the goals identified in the 2020-2024
Consolidated Plan. Priority ranking for each goal of the Consolidated Plan were provided, as
follows:
• Housing - Build new affordable housing and homeownership for low income populations.
• Transportation - Provide transit passes to low-income populations.
• Build Community Resiliency - Provide access to affordable and healthy food.
• Homeless Services - Homeless Resources Centers operations and emergency shelter.
• Behavioral Health - Resources for individuals with behavioral health needs.
The CDCIP and HTFAB Boards considered these priorities and how they align with the goals of
the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan when identifying projects to be recommended for the 2021-
2022 program year.
A General Needs Hearing was held on November 5, 2020 as a required HUD forum to allow the
public an opportunity to voice general ideas or concerns regarding community needs. This
hearing is an opportunity for the CDCIP Board to consider the public’s ideas and how these ideas
align with the goals of the Consolidated Plan. The ideas presented during a General Needs
Hearing are typically discussed during subsequent CDCIP meetings to help identify which
funding requests would be recommended by the board. At the General Needs Hearing held on
November 5, 2020, no public comments were received.
The HOME and HOPWA applications were reviewed during a public meeting by the HTFAB on
December 9, 2020. The CDBG and ESG applications were reviewed during public meetings by
the CDCIP on December 17, 2020, January 7, January 21, and January 28, 2021.
On March 2, 2021 CAN and HAND leadership met with Mayor Mendenhall to review the
CDCIP and HTFAB recommendations. The Mayor identified several applications that she
preferred to modify the potential award amount. The changes are outlined in the funding log
It is proposed that the Council hold a Public Hearing on April 6, 2021 to receive feedback from
the general public, including applicants, regarding HUD funding for the 2021-2022 year.

MARCH 16 MEETING SUMMARY
At its March 16, 2021 meeting the Council voted to defer action to a future Council meeting. Since that
date the applicant requested a Council vote at its earliest convenience.
The following information was provided for the March 2 public hearing. It is
provided again for background purposes.
PUBLIC HEARING SUMMARY
Seventeen people spoke at the March 2 public hearing. The majority were in favor of rezoning the property
to R-MU. A few expressed concerns with building height allowed within the R-MU zone and stated they
believed R-MU-35 would be more appropriate due to building height being limited to 35 feet. Three
people from Summum, a religious organization adjacent to the property, spoke in opposition to the rezone
citing concerns about a large building blocking sunlight on its property, and potential parking issues. The
Summum representatives also prefer rezoning the property to R-MU-35.
The Council closed the public hearing and deferred action to a future Council meeting.

The City Council’s role is limited to determining if the proposed zoning change is appropriate for the
parcels and surrounding area based on other land uses and zones in the area. This is a narrowly different
decision than what will be built on a particular parcel, which the Council does not decide. A chart
summarizing the current and proposed zoning designations is found on page 4 of this report. If the zoning
change is approved by the Council, the property owners will work with City Building Services on details,
building plans, and permits.
The following information was provided for the March 2 public hearing. It is
provided again for background purposes.
WORK SESSION SUMMARY
A Council Member asked if the housing units are anticipated to be leased or owner occupied and if there
are plans to include affordable units. The applicant said he envisions a diverse mix of housing types
including townhomes, live/work units, and small units. He isn’t currently planning on owner occupied
units. Affordable housing units will be determined by financing. The hope is smaller units will be at more
affordable price points. The applicant further stated the community expressed a desire for businesses and
restaurants in the neighborhood. He believes there needs to be increased housing density to support those
businesses.
Council Member Johnston reiterated community support for redeveloping the property. He discussed a
meeting he had with Summum, a religious organization adjacent to the subject site. Summum’s concerns
with the project are centered on a large building blocking sunlight from its property, as well as noise and
additional vehicles taking the limited on-street parking.
Council Member Johnston asked Planning staff to talk through the potential for a building on the subject
site to not have a rear or side yard setback requirement. Planning staff stated yard requirements will be
determined when a site plan is submitted. Council Member Johnston expressed the need to balance
desirable redevelopment in the area with Summum’s existing needs for its religious practices. He asked the
applicant to share their reasons for requesting R-MU zoning as opposed to form based zoning. The
applicant stated a large portion of the site contains the existing buildings. To create critical mass
supporting future businesses in the buildings they would like additional height allowed under R-MU that is
not available in form-based zoning. R-MU zoning encourages activation of street uses. In addition, the
applicant stated including the D-2 design standards will further enhance street level engagement and give
the City more control over the development.
The following information was provided for the February 16 work session. It is
provided again for background purposes.
The Council will be briefed about an ordinance to amend the zoning map for properties located at
approximately 706 to 740 West 900 South, 710 to 739 West Genesee Avenue, and portions of two unnamed
alleys adjacent to the properties. (Note: The Council voted to vacate one of the alley segments in August
2020 and was briefed on vacating the other alley segment in January 2021. A public hearing on vacating
the second alley segment is scheduled for March 2 with a potential Council vote March 16, 2021.) An aerial
image of the subject parcels and alley segments is below.
Page | 3
The subject parcels are currently zoned M-1 (Light Manufacturing) and the request is to change the zoning
designation to R-MU (Residential Mixed Use). Two existing commercial buildings on the parcels are
planned to be rehabilitated for restaurant and retail type uses which are permitted under both the current
M-1 as well as the proposed R-MU zoning designations. This rezone is being requested to allow future
development of the vacant eastern portion of the site for high density multi-family housing. Residential
uses are not permitted in the current M-1 zoning designation. Though no development plan has been
submitted, conceptual renderings are included in on pages 125-133 of the Administration’s transmittal.
There are two separate petitions related to this zoning map amendment. The Planning Commission
reviewed them separately and voted to forward positive recommendations to the City Council on both
petitions. Conditions of the Planning Commission’s positive recommendations are included in the
Additional Information section below. The Administration included both rezone petitions in one
transmittal and they are combined in this report.
Council Member Johnston is scheduled to meet with the applicant and concerned neighbors to discuss
impact of the rezone. At the time the staff report was prepared that meeting had not happened, however
staff will update the Council on this meeting during the work session briefing. A summary of the concerns
is below.
Summum, a religious organization that owns abutting property north of the subject properties, objects to
the proposed rezone. According to a letter submitted to the Planning Commission by its attorneys,
Summum believes buildings constructed to the height allowed under the R-MU zoning designation would
reflect and intensify noise from the nearby I-15 freeway onto its temple and gardens, negatively impacting
the peace and serenity of the site. Summum recommended rezoning the subject parcels to R-MU 35 which
would limit building height to 35 feet. The organization believes lower building height will better protect
the atmosphere at its property.
It should be noted under the existing M-1 zoning designation the maximum building height is 65 feet,
though residential buildings are not permitted in M-1.

2020. Alley segment in red is scheduled for a public hearing March 2, with a potential Council vote March 16, 2021.
Goal of the briefing: Review the proposed zoning map amendment, determine if the Council supports
moving forward with the proposal.
POLICY QUESTIONS
1.The Council may wish to ask what changes, if any, were made as a result of the public process
since the Planning Commission meetings.
2.The Council may wish to ask if the applicant is considering partnering with the City on
potential incentives, such as the Revolving Loan Fund, for affordable housing.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The Planning Commission included two conditions as part of its recommendation. First, is to include a
requirement for the applicant to purchase the above-mentioned alley segments, provided the Council
approves vacating the second alley segment. The other condition is to impose additional design standards.
These additional standards are discussed in the Key Considerations section below.
A chart briefly summarizing regulations for the current M-1 zoning designation and proposed R-MU
designation is below. A full chart comparing the two zoning designations is found in Attachment C on
pages 56-59 of the Administration’s transmittal.
Page | 5
KEY CONSIDERATIONS
Two key considerations were identified through Planning’s analysis of the proposed project, neighbor and
community input, and department reviews. A summary of each is below. See pages 32-34 of the
Administration’s transmittal for the complete analysis.
Consideration 1: Existing City Plan Guidance – Westside Master Plan
For zoning map amendments, Planning staff considers associated City master plans and applicable adopted
policies. The subject parcels are within the Westside Master Plan boundaries. In addition, Planning staff
considered policies within Plan Salt Lake when reviewing this application. A summary of the Westside
Master Plan guidance is below. Please see Attachment D (pages 60-62 of the Administration’s transmittal)
for the full analysis of City plans Planning staff considered.
The proposed project’s location on 900 South and the 700 West industrial corridor is an area the Westside
Master Plan identifies as an important gateway into the larger Westside community. Five of six routes to
the Westside from the east pass through the 700 West Industrial Corridor making it a significant part of
the eastern gateways to the Westside.
Planning staff noted “A first-time visitor to the community, regardless of their mode of transportation, is
first greeted by a land use and development pattern that is not representative of the true character of the
community. During the public input gathering process for the Westside Master Plan, 900 S was generally
considered the gateway in need of the most attention.” Planning further noted “The proposed R-MU zoning
district provides for a vibrant mix of uses that are more consistent with the future development goals
envisioned for this area, than what could be developed under the existing M-1 zoning designation.”
It is Planning’s opinion the proposed rezone is consistent with master plan goals promoting reinvestment
and redevelopment. They found the subject parcels are underutilized and mostly vacant land in an area the
master plan identified as appropriate for high density housing.
Consideration 2: Design Standards
Under the proposed R-MU zoning district, only two design standards apply to new developments. They are
a requirement for 40% ground floor glass on street facing façades, and a 15-foot maximum length of any
blank wall uninterrupted by windows, doors, art, or architectural detail on the ground floor level along a
façade facing the street.
Structured parking or some other use not consistent with the active pedestrian-oriented design envisioned
in the area’s master plan could be included without additional design standards. The Planning Commission
adopted Planning staff’s recommendation to impose design standards in section 21A.37 of the zoning
ordinance applicable to the D-2 (Downtown Support) zoning district to any new project on the subject
parcels developed under the proposed R-MU zoning district. These are included in the following table.

ANALYSIS OF STANDARDS
Attachment E of the Planning Commission staff report (pages 63-65 of the Administration’s transmittal)
outlines zoning map amendment standards that should be considered as the Council reviews this proposal.
Planning staff found this proposal complies with applicable standards. Please see the Planning Commission
staff report for full details.

DOCUMENT TYPE: Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council follow the recommendation of the Planning
Commission to amend the zoning map (with conditions) to R-MU (Residential Mixed Use) from
the current designation of M-1 (Light Manufacturing) for the properties located at approximately
706 to 740 West 900 South Street, 710 to 739 West Genesee Avenue, and portions of two unnamed,
city-owned alleys.
BUDGET IMPACT: None.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The property owner, Maximilian Coreth, is requesting to rezone twelve parcels and portions of
city owned public alley from the current M-1 (Light Manufacturing) zoning designation to R-MU
(Residential Mixed Use).
There are two existing commercial buildings on the site that are planned to be rehabilitated for
restaurant and retail type uses that are currently permitted under the current M-1 zoning
designation as well as the proposed R-MU zoning designation. The purpose of the rezone request
12/30/2020Lisa Shaffer
1/6/2020
is to accommodate future development of the vacant eastern portion of the site for high density
multi-family residential. Residential uses are not permitted in the existing M-1 zoning designation.
The developer has not proposed a specific development plan as part of the rezone application.
The proposal includes two petitions, both to amend the zoning map for the subject properties from
M-1 to R-MU. The first application includes ten parcels and a portion of a city owned alley, and
the second petition is to rezone two additional properties and a portion of a city owned alley.
Subject properties are highlighted in yellow. The orange areas identify portions of the city owned alley
included in the rezone request.
The properties could currently be developed for light industrial uses under the M-1 zoning district
designation. A full chart comparing the current M-1 zoning regulations and the proposed R-MU
zoning regulations and allowed uses is located in Exhibit 3b. The following is a brief summary of
some of the development regulations that would change with the proposed rezone request:
Planning Commission Recommended Conditions
In their recommendation to approve the proposal, the Planning Commission adopted the Planning
Staff’s recommended conditions of approval which include a requirement for the petitioner to enter
into a purchase agreement to acquire the vacated portions of the alleys, provided those alley
vacations are approved by the city council, and to impose additional design standards.
The condition related to the alleys was recommended at the request of Salt Lake City Real Estate
Services.
In regard to the recommended condition for additional design standards, the proposed R-MU
zoning district only has two design standards that would apply to any new development under that
zoning designation. Those design standards are a 40% ground floor glass requirement for facades
facing a street, and the 15 FT maximum length of any blank wall uninterrupted by windows, doors,
art or architectural detailing at the ground floor level along any street facing facade. Under the R-
MU design standards, something like structured parking could be located on the ground floor,
which would not be consistent with the active pedestrian-oriented design envisioned in the master
plan for this important westside gateway. Additionally, the community council in the area
expressed concerns early on in the engagement process with the lack of design standards in the
proposed zoning district, and the recommended condition was in part to address those concerns.
The design standards are intended to utilize planning and architecture principles to shape and
promote a walkable environment, foster place making as a community and economic development
tool, protect property values, assist in maintaining the established character of the City, and
implement the City's master plans.
Master Plan policies in the area as well as planning best practices suggest that a new development
in this area would benefit from additional design standards such as an active ground floor use and
durable building material requirements on ground and upper floors, to encourage pedestrian
activity and a vibrant active mixed-use gateway into the westside neighborhoods. The Commission
adopted Planning Staff’s recommendation to impose the design standards in section 21A.37 of the
zoning ordinance applicable to the D-2 (Downtown Support) zoning district to any new project on
the subject parcels developed under the proposed R-MU zoning district. One way this could be
accomplished is through a development agreement approved by City Council. The following are
the D-2 design standards the Planning Commission recommends are imposed on the rezone
request:
Design Standards
Ground Floor Use % 75
Ground Floor Use + Visual Interest % 60/25
Building Materials – Ground Floor 80
Building Materials – Upper Floors 50
Glass – Ground Floor % 40
Glass – Upper Floors % 25
Building Entrances (feet) 50
Blank Wall – Maximum Length (feet) 15
Street Facing Façade – Maximum Length (feet) 200
Upper Floor Step Back (feet)
Lighting – Exterior X
Lighting – Parking Lot X
Screening Mechanical Equipment X
Screening of Service Areas X
Parking Garages or Structures X
Ordinance Note
There are two ordinances included with this transmittal for consideration by the council – one with
the conditions recommended by the Planning Commission, and one without the recommended
conditions.
In regard to the conditions of approval, the Planning Commission adopted the recommended
conditions into their recommendation to City Council for petition PLNPCM2019-01137 (request
to rezone ten parcels and a portion of a city owned alley), on April 8, 2020. For the motion related
to petition PLN2020-00442 (request to rezone two parcels and a portion of a city owned alley),
the conditions were inadvertently left out of the October 14, 2020 motion. The ordinance with
conditions included with the transmittal incorporates the conditions of approval for both petitions
because staff believes it was the intent of the Commission to include the conditions of approval in
their recommendation as it was included in the staff report recommendation and discussed during
the public hearing.
PUBLIC PROCESS:
• Prior to submitting the rezone application, the applicants attended the September 25, 2019
Poplar Grove Community Council meeting to discuss their plans for rezoning the
properties.

Legal counsel representing the Summum religious organization, who owns property adjacent to
the proposal on the north east corner of the block, submitted a letter expressing concerns about the
proposal on October 13, 2020 (see letter in Exhibit 4f). The letter outlines concerns with the height
that would be permitted under the proposed R-MU zoning district as well as makes a claim the
proposed rezone would impose a substantial burden on its right and the rights of its members to
practice their religion, in violation of the First Amendment.

Re: PLNPCM2019-01137 - Zoning Map Amendment
Zoning Map Amendment
MASTER PLAN: Westside
ZONING DISTRICT: M-1 Light Manufacturing
PROPERTY ADDRESS: 706-740 West 900 South (approximate) – includes 10 parcels and a
portion of a city owned public alley
REQUEST:
Maximilian Coreth, the owner of the properties, is requesting to rezone ten parcels and a portion
of a city owned public alley at approximately 740 W 900 South. The properties are currently zoned
Light Manufacturing (M-1) and the request is to rezone them to Residential Mixed Use (R-MU).
The purpose of the requested rezone is to accommodate a future multi-family residential
development on a portion of the subject site.
RECOMMENDATION:
Based on the findings and analysis in this staff report and the factors to consider for zoning map
amendments in 21A.50.050 of the zoning ordinance, Planning Staff recommends that the
Planning Commission forward a positive recommendation to the City Council regarding this
proposal with the conditions noted below:
1. The rezone of the portion of the City owned alley included in the request is subject to the
petitioner entering into a Purchase Agreement with the City to acquire the vacated alley
if the alley vacation is approved by City Council.
2. Design standards for the D-2 zone shall be applied to any new development on the subject
site. This requirement could be executed through a development agreement with City
Council or some other mechanism decided on by City Council.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND:
The property owner, Maximilian Coreth, is requesting to rezone ten parcels and a portion of a city
owned public alley from the current M-1 (Light Manufacturing) zoning designation to R-MU
(Residential Mixed Use). The total area of the proposed rezone is approximately 1.8 acres or
78,742 square feet.
There are two existing commercial buildings on the site that are planned to be rehabilitated for
restaurant and retail type uses that are currently permitted under the current M-1 zoning
designation as well as the proposed R-MU zoning designation. The requested rezone would
accommodate future development of the vacant eastern portion of the site for high density multi-
family residential. The developer has not proposed a specific development plan as part of the
rezone and does not have any pending building permits or other development applications for the
property. The applicant has submitted an alley vacation application for the portion of the city
owned alley that is included in the rezone request and that application is currently being
processed. Please refer to Attachment B for a detailed narrative submitted by the applicant for the
proposed rezone.
The subject properties are located approximately 330 FT west of Interstate 15 along 900 S, one of
the gateways to the Westside neighborhoods. Several community uses surround the subject site
including the 9-line trail, 9-line dirt jumps and pump track, and community gardens. The
predominant street frontage of the vacant portion of the properties is along 900 S as well as 700
W. The surrounding properties on the block are zoned M-1, however, with the exception of just a
few properties, the primary use is predominantly single family residential. There is also a religious
use (Summum) adjacent to the site on the north east corner of the block.
The block to the north of the subject site is also zoned M-1 with uses that include commercial and
light manufacturing type uses as well as some residential uses. The block to the south of the
subject site is zoned M-1 with current uses that include Utah PaperBox, moving and storage
warehouses, and other light manufacturing uses.
Blocks south of the proposed rezone are zoned R-1/5,000 (Single Family Residential) and R-MU-
35 (Residential Mixed Use); blocks to the east on the other side of Interstate 15 are zoned CG
(General Commercial).
The primary reason for the rezone request is so the applicant will have the ability to develop the
properties for residential uses, which are not currently allowed under the existing M-1 zoning
designation. The M-1 zoning district allows for a variety of light manufacturing and industrial uses
that are not allowed in the proposed R-MU zone. Some examples of uses that are currently
permitted or conditional uses in the M-1 zone that would no longer be allowed in the proposed R-
MU zone include: bus line station/terminal, community correctional facility, impound lot,
industrial assembly, light manufacturing, and outdoor public storage. For a complete list of uses
that are allowed under the existing M-1 zone and the proposed R-MU zone, please refer to
Attachment C.
The properties could currently be developed for light industrial uses under the M-1 zoning district
designation. A full chart comparing the current M-1 zoning regulations and the proposed R-MU
zoning regulations is located in Attachment C. The following is a brief summary of some of the
development regulations that would change with the proposed rezone request:
Existing M-1 Zone Proposed R-MU Zone
Setbacks Front and corner side yard setback – 15’ Interior and rear yard setback – None Front, corner, and interior yard setback – None Rear yard setback – 25% of lot depth up to 30’
Height 65’ 75’ for residential uses 45’ for non-residential uses
Open Space None required 20% of lot for residential uses
Zoning Map Amendment Considerations
Planning staff is required by ordinance to analyze proposed zoning map amendments against
existing adopted City policies and other related adopted City regulations. Planning staff is also
directed to consider whether zoning text amendments implement best planning practices.
However, ultimately, a decision to amend the zoning map is fully up to the discretion of the City
Council and is not subject to any particular standard of review or consideration.
The full list of factors to consider for a zoning map amendment are located in Attachment E.
KEY CONSIDERATIONS:
The key considerations and concerns below have been identified through the analysis of the
project, neighbor and community input, and department reviews.
1. Existing Area Plan Guidance
2. Design Standards
Consideration 1: Existing City Plan Guidance – Westside Master Plan
For zoning map amendments, Planning Staff is directed by ordinance to consider the associated
City master plans and adopted policies that apply to a proposal. Staff reviews general City policies,
including adopted policies in Citywide master plans such as Plan Salt Lake, and considers plans
that are specific to an area. In this case the property is within the boundaries of the Westside
Master Plan that was developed specifically for this area. The full plan can be accessed here:
http://www.slcdocs.com/Planning/MasterPlansMaps/WSLMPA.pdf.
See Attachment D for policy statements and goals from various city plans that staff considered as
part of the review of this rezone request.
This project is situated along 900 S and the 700 W industrial corridor, an area that the Westside
Master Plan identifies as an important gateway into the larger Westside Community. Five of six
routes into the Westside from the east cut through the 700 West Industrial Corridor. As a result,
700 W is a significant part of the eastern gateways in the Westside. The impact is most evident
along 900 South, where one side of the street is residential and the other industrial. A first-time
visitor to the community, regardless of their mode of transportation, is first greeted by a land use
and development pattern that is not representative of the true character of the community. During
the public input gathering process for the Westside Master Plan, 900 S was generally considered
the gateway in need of the most attention. The proposed R-MU zoning district provides for a
vibrant mix of uses that are more consistent with the future development goals envisioned for this
area, than what could be developed under the existing M-1 zoning designation.
The proposed rezone is consistent with Master Plan goals to promote reinvestment and
redevelopment in the Westside community through changes in land use to spur development that
meets the community’s vision while maintaining the character of Westside’s existing stable
neighborhoods. The parcels included in the proposed rezone are currently underutilized mostly
vacant land that is identified in the Master Plan as an appropriate area for high density housing.
The development regulations in the proposed R-MU zone further these goals by providing for
attractive, compatible and high-density, mixed-use development with an emphasis on pedestrian
scale activity while acknowledging the need for transit and automobile access.
Consideration 2: Design Standards
The proposed R-MU zoning district only has two design standards that would apply to any new
development under that zoning designation. Those design standards are a 40% ground floor glass
requirement for facades facing a street, and the 15 FT maximum length of any blank wall
uninterrupted by windows, doors, art or architectural detailing at the ground floor level along any
street facing facade. Under the R-MU design standards, something like structured parking could
be located on the ground floor, which would not be consistent with the active pedestrian-oriented
design envisioned in the master plan for this important gateway. The design standards are
intended to utilize planning and architecture principles to shape and promote a walkable
environment, foster place making as a community and economic development tool, protect
property values, assist in maintaining the established character of the City, and implement the
City's master plans.
Master Plan policies in the area as well as planning best practices suggest that a new development
in this area would benefit from additional design standards such as an active ground floor use and
durable building material requirements on ground and upper floors, to encourage pedestrian
activity and a vibrant active mixed-use gateway into the westside neighborhoods. Planning Staff
is of the opinion the design standards in section 21A.37 applicable to the D-2 zoning district
should be applied to any new project on the subject parcels developed under the proposed R-MU
zoning district. One way this could be accomplished is through a development agreement.
Development agreements can only be approved by the City Council. The following are the design
standards Planning Staff is recommending are imposed on the rezone request:
Design Standards
Ground Floor Use % 75
Ground Floor Use + Visual Interest % 60/25
Building Materials – Ground Floor 80
Building Materials – Upper Floors 50
Glass – Ground Floor % 40
Glass – Upper Floors % 25
Building Entrances (feet) 50
Blank Wall – Maximum Length (feet) 15
Street Facing Façade – Maximum Length (feet) 200
Upper Floor Step Back (feet)
Lighting – Exterior X
Lighting – Parking Lot X
Screening Mechanical Equipment X
Screening of Service Areas X
Parking Garages or Structures X
A definition of each of the design standards above can be found in section 21A.347.050 of the
zoning ordinance.
NEXT STEPS:
The Planning Commission can provide a positive or negative recommendation for the proposal
and as part of a recommendation, can add conditions or request that changes be made to the
proposal. The recommendation and any requested conditions/changes will be sent to the City
Council, who will hold a briefing and additional public hearing on the proposed zoning changes.
The City Council may make modifications to the proposal and approve or decline to approve the
proposed zoning map amendment.
If ultimately approved by the City Council, the changes would be incorporated into the official
City Zoning map and any new development on the rezoned parcels would be required to follow
the regulations of the R-MU zoning district along with any development agreement requirements
adopted by the City Council.
If the proposed zoning amendment is not approved by the City Council, the property could still be
developed under its current M-1 zoning designation, however, the property would not be able to
be developed for multi-family residential uses as they are not permitted in the light manufacturing
zoning district.

Project Description:
M-1 to RMU Zone Map Amendment
December 3, 2019
Project Description :
Emerging from the adaptive re-use of two existing ba r rel-vaulted warehouse buildings, the West
End development is envisioned as a true mixed-use community. The retail opportunities will be an
asset to the existing residential fabric. The development will also include the addition of medium to
high density housing, which will promote the success of these retail and service possibilities. These
residences will provide a consistent level of patronage to support and sustain local commercial
activity. A strong midblock connection in the form of an alley breaks down the large -scale block
pattern and welcomes visitors into the neighborhood . It is this alley that invites people into the
block and creates a sense of place. The current M -1 zoning is not congruent with the desired land
use envisioned by the city. The zone amendment is supported by the following documents :
Westside Masterplan
9 Line Corridor Master Plan
Growing SLC : A Five Year Housing Plan
Plan Salt Lake
Background:
As cited in the Westside Master Plan, the development patterns of the Westside were influenced by
the development of the rail corridor in the late 1800s. The addition of the rail line created the initial
physical barrie r between the Westside and the development on the east side of the city.
Proximity to the Jordan River also influenced both development and associated uses due to
seasonal flooding. This unpredictability made agriculture difficult. Even less inviting, the Jordan
River was used for sewerage and as refuse dumps thus discouraging many uses, including
residential development.
With the advent of the Surplus Canal in 1885, the river was less variable and both agricultural
activities and bridge building could take place. With its proximity to the established rail tracks, the
Westside began to see more industria l uses in addition to requisite housing and subdivision
development.
Throughout the 20 th century, the level of connectivity from the Westside to other parts of the city
wa s variable. With the advent of the streetcar early in the century, the area enjoyed a level of
connection with other parts of the city. However, as the century marched on, the dependence on
the automobile created more vertical infrastructure that afforded great access to the freeway but
further isolation via at-grade street connection .
In terms of the current conditions, the Westside masterplan rightly points out :
"A 1968 bus route map shows evidence of the beginnings of 1-15 and the east-west
disconnect it would further exacerbate: only two bus routes provided access from the
Westside to the Downtown and central neighborhoods of Salt Lake City. One route was on
I I Page
400 South and the other, 200 South. No routes south of 400 South ventured east of 900
West."
By 1988, many of the freeways and interchanges were elevated with concrete construction,
solidifying the connectivity challenges for Westside.
Proposed Project and Compliance with Salt Lake City Policy Directives:
The West End Development block is located at 900 South between 700 West and 800 West. The
proposed West End Development is an ideal project to realize the visions and goals of the adopted
Master Plans. The active mixed-use environment is primed to foster aspects of neighborhood and
community. The phased plan includes commercial opportunities (restaurant and retail) and medium
to high density residential. These components align with stated city goals. The City has recognized
the importance of the area and the associated challenges in both the Westside Master plan and the
9 Line Master Plan. In addition to the adopted master plans, the project is also in alignment with
the adopted city-wide vision document Plan Salt Lake and the Housing and Neighborhood
Development publication titled Growing SLC: A Five Year Vision.
The Westside Master Plan, adopted in 2014, states the following goals:
• Promote reinvestment and redevelopment in the Westside community through changes
in land use, improved public infrastructure and community investment to spur
development that meets the community's vision while maintaining the character of
Westside's existing stable neighborhoods:
The adaptive reuse of two underutilized commercial structures will vastly increase the site's
commercial activity while preserving and highlighting the character of these long-standing
buildings. Through a change in land use, the addition of residential units will support these
commercial uses in a symbiotic way.
• Protect and encourage ongoing investment in existing, low-density residential
neighborhoods while providing attractive, compatible and high density residential
development where needed, appropriate or desired :
This adaptive reuse project is the catalyst in a development that will include the
construction of medium to high density residential. The two commercial structures will
provide an attractive transition between the existing, low-density residential neighborhood
to the west and medium to high density residential development on our site. The residential
development will act as a buffer between the freeway and the extant residential
neighborhood to the west of the site. The retail offerings will visually connect to the alley
and create an activated ground plane.
• Recognize, develop and foster opportunities for unique, mixed use neighborhood and
community nodes in the Westside that reflect the diverse nature of the community and
provide resources to allow for their growth :
2 1Page
The transformation of two commercial structures that were previously closed to the
neighborhood into publicly-accessible spaces will create a neighborhood node easily
accessible by foot or bike. Our tenants could also provide services that attract customers
from outside the neighborhood, thus fulfilling a key requirement of the creation of a
community node.
• Enhance and expand the internal network of assets, nodes and resources ensuring that
all residents and employees in the Westside have access to goods, services and activities
and the opportunity to walk or bicycle safely to them:
This project will attract new commercial tenants that provide Westside resident s with
access to goods and services that were heretofore scarce or unavailable in the area . It will
also reinvigorate a mid-block crossing that isn't currently conducive to safe pedestrian or
cyclist access. With the addition of residential stacked flats, the people and eyes on the alley
and streets will naturally create a safe space.
•Create a beautiful community with a system of guidelines to create and strengthen
public spaces that will foster community interaction and pride and catalyze ongoing
redevelopment and growth:
Adaptive reuse of these buildings will re-emphasize their architectural attractiveness while
opening them to the public for commercial activity. This project will increase community
interaction and pride and should attract further investment in the surrounding area .
The West End development is a prime example of a site that will support the goals of the Westside
Master Plan . Through a change in permitted land use, this project will foster reinvestment in the
community. This mixed-use neighborhood and community node will be a unique place and will
provide services to the neighborhood with the potential for coffee shops, restaurants or other reta ii
opportunities. These uses will be supported by the presence of medium and high density residential
units. The development will serve as a gateway to the Westside and will strengthen 900 South as a
multi modal transportation corridor and reinforce the Jordan River as a local amenity.
Similarly, the 9 Line Corridor Master Plan states the following goals:
• Connecting stable residential neighborhoods, growing commercial and neighborhood
centers, and promoting thriving recreation locations;
• Embracing a diverse assemblage of people and user groups, providing the opportunity for
enhancing their connections to the surrounding businesses and neighborhoods that form a
unique and attractive community;
•Improving physical and cultural connections between the east and west sides of the City
that in turn offer regional connections;
•Featuring retail, service, recreational, and educational options at key nodes along the 9
Line, as well as encouraging and facilitating connections to neighborhood nodes in the
surrounding community;
•Facilitating the goal of We st Salt Lake becoming the primary destination in Salt Lake City
for river recreation and other types of parks and public spaces ;
3 I Page
•Serving as a mechanism for the neighborhoods of West Salt Lake to celebrate their history
and character by functioning as a co mmunity and cultural asset that conn ects people of al l
ages to services and educa tional opportunities; and
• Supporting connections to the West Salt Lake industrial business co mmunity, helping it
continue to be a healthy and diverse growing employment and economic ba se for Salt lake
City.
Via th e 9 line trail, The West End Project creates and connects residential neighborhoods with
rec reation opportunities. The West End de ve lopment is an opportunity to acco mplish the goals
li sted in the 9 line Master Plan. The co mmerc ial components will be a key node along the trail
system. The residential apartment units will provide opportunities for more diversity to supp lement
the ex i st ing co mmunity fabri c. The mix of uses will foster a unique and attractive atmosphere. The
reuse of the warehouse structures recognizes the industrial roots of the site and creates a gathering
point for the co mmunity.
The Sa lt Lake City Housing and Neighborhood Development (HAND) division also provides insight in
the document labeled Growing SLC: A Five Year Housing Plan. This document recognize s that
e leme nts such as zoning changes are necessary to support the addition of re sidential units and the
establishment of communities and affordable places to live.
Th e first policy change listed by the plan is to focus on updates to the zoning co de :
Goal 1, Objective 1: Review and modify land-use and zoning regulations to reflect the
affordability needs of a growing, pioneering city.
Th e Growing SLC plan encourages fl ex ible zon in g, in particular along transportation routes. The plan
also encourages infill projects with an em pha si s on providing hou sing diversity and stock with a
variety of product types and levels of affordability.
Develop infill ordinances that promote a diverse housing stock, increase housing options,
create redevelopment opportunities, and allow additional units within existing structures,
while minimiz ing neighborhood impacts .
Plan Salt Lake
In order to articulate a city wid e vision, Salt l ake City Planners c rafted the Plan Sal t Lak e vi sioning
document which was adopted December 201 5. The West End project is congruent with this vision
a nd it will provide benefits to the e ntire ci ty, beyond the borders of the West sid e. This project is
compatible with the framework that th e city has identified to anticipate growth and matches the
vision towards sust ainability and livability. As a part of the sustainable growth and development
st rateg i es identified, empha sis o n development that includes placemaking features, broad mix of
uses, co nn ec tivity and density are considered positive meas ures to accomplish responsible growth.
The W est End project aims to include these sa me co mpon ents in their ma ster plan of the block.
Pl ace m aki ng is ce lebrated in the adaptive r e -use of the barrel vau lt warehouse bu ildings. Access
from the mid -block alley provides opportunity for outdoor dining with e leme nts su ch as festoon
lighting a nd site furnishing. These commercial uses create vibrancy througho ut the day and night.
With adjacent access to the 9 line Trail and the mid-block connection which breaks down the large
block dime nsions, multi modal circulation is e nhan ced. The guiding princ iples identified include
41 P age
Neighborhoods, Housing, Transportation & Mobility, Air Quality, Natural Environment, Parks &
Recreation, Beautiful City, Preservation, Arts & Culture, Equity, Economy, Government. More
specifically, with the proper zoning, the West End Project can provide a safe environment,
opportunity for social interaction, and services needed for the well-being of the community. It is the
draw along 900 South that welcomes people into the Westside and provides a business node.
Another congruent stated initiative to accommodate growth is to promote infill and redevelopment
of underutilized land. Access to a variety of housing types is important in particular adjacent to
trails and other outdoor recreation . The 9 Line Trail and the Jordan River Trail can provide these
connections and general mobility for higher density nodes for projects like the West End .
The West End project complies resoundingly with the vision of the city-wide plans by creating
additional housing stock along a transportation corridor. This additional housing stock and
bolstering of community occurs through a land use change: the zone map amendment. This
approach is recognized as one of the primary solutions to addressing the housing shortage by
choos ing to change current zoning.
The development team has been proactive with the existing community and neighbors. They have
sponsored an open house meeting on site and have an ongoing dialogue with the local community
council. Additionally, the team received a unanimous recommendation from the RDA Finance
Committee forthe approval of a loan to finance the adaptive re-use of the two commercial
structures on site. This development loan was recently presented to the RDA Board for their
consideration and won its approval as well.
Purpose:
The purpose of the Zone Map amendment is to facilitate the sta ted goals and vision of the city's
adopted masterplans and other planning and visioning documents. The project planned for this site
is in alignment with the city plans and policies. The zo ne ame ndment process is the mechanism
outlined many times in the city policy documentation. The existing zoning is outdated and is
preventing the ideal growth pattern for the area . This development can achieve the goals and
visions with the appropriate zoning designation . As discussed with members of the city planning
staff, the development team has identified RMU zone as the most relevant zo ning designation to
match the overall city vision as well as the local master plan documentation. As evidenced by the
community outreach already performed, the West End Developme nt team is invested in the
community beyond their own property boundary. The team held an open house with the Poplar
Grove community at which they received initial feedback from the community and the block to the
w est in particular. As further illustration of this applicant's dedication to the neighborhood, the
West End team has also hired Architectural Nexu s to explore the potential of a re-zone for the block
immediately to the west of their site at the request of the PGCC. Working with the community
co uncil, consensus is being established to determine the appropriate departure from the no longer
suitable M-1 designation .

RMU Zoning:
The purpose statement of the RMU is as follows :
The purpose of the R-MU Residential/Mixed Use District is to reinforce the mixed use
character of the area and encourage the development of areas as high density residential
urban neighborhoods conta ining retail, service commercial, and small scale office uses. This
district is appropriate in areas of the City where the applicable master plans support high
density, mixed use development. The stand a rds for the district are intended to facilitate the
creation of a walkable urban neighborhood with an emphasis on pedestrian scale activity
while acknowledging the need for transit and automobile access.
The West End development squarely fits the purpose statement of the RMU zone. As a proper
mixed-use project, it will thrive on the connectivity of the 9 Line trail system. Medium to high
density residential units will benefit from and support the commercial aspects of the project. The
intent of the amendment would be to follow the established strategy of Salt Lake City's master plan
documents and to allow the neighborhood to flourish with the appropriate zone designation . This
amendment will allow projects on this block to serve as a gateway to this district. The height
allowed by RMU zoning for multifamily development will help shield the extant low density
neighborhood to the west from the 45 foot high freeway to the site's east. The RMU Zone
requirements are as follows:

In addition to sup porting the type of development described in the purpose statement of the RMU
zone, the amendment will allow projects to meet the visions and goals of the Westside Master Plan,
9 Line Master Plan, Growing SLC: A Five Year Housing Plan and Plan Salt Lak e. The zone map change
will promote reinvestment and redevelopment on a local neighborhood sca le which will then
become a part of the overall successful citywide vision. These new development opportunities will
encourage "unique, mixed use neighborhood and com munity nodes." From a citywide perspective,
the Growing SLC: A Five Year Hou sing Plan and the Plan Sa lt Lake vision can only be accomplished
by utilizing the appropriate zoning to foster the desired land use s.

21A.34.140B2 of this title.
F. Maximum Height:
1. Di stillation Column Structures; Development In AFPP Overlay District: No building shall
exceed sixty five feet (65') except that emission free distillation column structures,
IO I Page
necessary for manufacture processing purposes, shall be permitted up to the most
restrictive Federal Aviation Administration imposed minimal approach surface elevations, or
one hundred twenty feet (120') maximum, whichever is less. Said approach surface
elevation will be determined by the Salt Lake City Department of Airports at the proposed
locations of the distillation column structure. Any proposed development in the Airport
Flight Path Protection (AFPP) Overlay District, as outlined in section 21A.34.040 of this title,
will require approval of the Department of Airports prior to issuance of a building permit. All
proposed development within the AFPP Overlay District which exceeds fifty feet (SO') may
also require site specific approval from the Federal Aviation Administration.
2. Location Exception: In the M-1 Zoning Districts located west of the Salt Lake City
International Airport and north of Interstate 80 (1 -80), buildings may exceed sixty five feet
(65') in height subject to the design review standards and procedures of chapter 21A.59 of
this title. In no case shall any building exceed eighty five feet (85').
3. Railroad Offloading Structures : Cranes, lifts, and other similar offloading structures
related to the operation of a railroad freight terminal are allowed up to eighty five feet (85')
in height and are also subject to the Airport Flight Path Protection (AFPP) Overlay District
and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requirements. (Ord. 14-19, 2019: Ord. 3-18,
2018)
The M-1 zone is not a path to further develop city goals. Driven by historical constraints, the
Westside's previous lack of connectivity segregated its communities from the rest of the city. With
the advent of the 9 Line trail and other trail network connections, the Westside is poised to
blossom. The means to create the alignment with the city vision is through appropriate zoning.
Summary
The zone amendment is consistent with the purposes, goals, objectives, and policies of the City. The
relevant standards for map amendments as taken from ordinance 21A.59.0SO are as follows:
• 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.
• The extent to which a proposed map amendment will affect adjacent properties;
• 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.
As referenced above in specific detail, there are innumerable references in adopted city plan
documents to support and encourage this zone amendment, including the following:
Westside Masterplan
9 Line Corridor Master Plan
Growing SLC: A Five Year Housing Plan
Plan Salt Lake
New residents and employees to the neighborhood will enjoy access to parks and recreational
facilities including the 9 Line trail, Jordan River Parkway Trail, Jordan Park and the 9 th South River
lll P age
park. In addition, the proposed map amendment will have positive impacts for the adjacent
properties and existing residents. Currently, the West End property and adjacent alley have been
underutilized and have invited unwelcome activities. The activation and re -use of these spaces will
breathe life into this block. The existing residential fabric will benefit from the commercial uses and
increased positive activity in the area. This property owner has proactively engaged with the
community and the local community council and has taken a transparent approach to
communicating the goals for the project. This development aims to create a tangible benefit to the
neighborhood, community and city.
This proactive approach extends to coordination with the city. This development team has
participated in a pre-submittal conference with Salt Lake City planners. They have reviewed the
project with the Development Review Team (DRT). During these discussions, adequacy of public
facilities and services intended to serve the subject property, including, but not limited to,
roadways, fire protection, schools, storm water drainage systems, water supplies, and wastewater
and refuse collection were reviewed . At the conceptual level, these important factors can be
addressed and no items were introduced to preclude development. As the project gains
momentum and more robust design, engineering and calculations are developed, more in -depth
discussions with entities such as Public Utilities, Salt Lake City Fire Department, Engineering and
Zoning will occur.
The existing zoning designation of M-1 does not advance the goals of the city . The proposed zone
map amendment will foster alignment with the both the Westside Master Plan and the 9 Line
Master Plan. Congruence with the principles and initiatives outlined in Growing Salt Lake and Plan
Salt Lake documents can also be achieved with these type of infill projects. With the proper zo ning,
creating a node that connects to the 9 Line trail, the West End Development will break down the
large blocks with an activated and safe alley at the midblock. Welcoming retail can thrive with
patronage from existing and new residents. Previously segregated from the rest of the city, the
West End project will provide an exciting portal to the Westside community while celebrating the
past with adaptive re-use. The proje ct is looking to the future with the activation of the area
through mixed use commercial and residential functions. While Phase 1 of the project, including the
adaptive re-use commercial, can proceed under the M-1 Zoning, the critical addition of residential
cannot. These uses are dependent on each other in a symbiotic way. The importance of creating
more residential nodes to support and activate this potential gateway is critical to cultivating the
desired neighborhood fabric. It is this mixed -use environment that will drive economic vitality and
foster a sense of place. We are excited to provide an activated, true mixed-use environment
congruent with the city goals that will bolster a neighborhood and community.

City Plan Considerations
Adopted City Plan Policies and Guidance
Zoning map amendments are reviewed for compliance with City master plans and adopted
policies. The below plans were adopted for the area:
• Westside Master Plan (Current Community Plan)
o The subject properties are located along the north end of the 700 West industrial
corridor which is between I-15 and 800 West from 800 South to approximately 1700
South.
o The steps identified for gradual change along the 700 West corridor include —zoning
changes, design guidelines and capital improvements.
o The plan includes several goals for increasing the community’s residential density.
o Adding more commercial and multi-family residential infill should be pursued when
the opportunity for redevelopment arises along the corridor.
o Residents’ ideas for the future of the 700 West corridor had a focus on phasing out of
the intense industrial uses.
o Consider permitting residential and commercial infill on vacant parcels in the
industrial corridor. Height and bulk regulations for infill development should be as
flexible in order to achieve high density development (50 or more dwelling units per
acre).
o Identify underutilized or unmaintained areas within large residential blocks in the
Westside. These mid-block areas should be targeted for development through flexible
zoning and design standards.
o Some design elements that are used to increase density, such as height and bulk, can
be made compatible through appropriate architectural design and landscaping
techniques.
o Review the uses that are permitted in the current light manufacturing zoning district
and determine if a new zone may be more appropriate. A new district should more
specifically regulate building and site design and should completely prohibit any uses
that produce noxious odors, fumes or other discharge or other uses that rely heavily
on outdoor storage.
• 9 Line Corridor Master Plan
o Major & Minor Gateways - The 9 Line enjoys an excellent relative location in the Salt
Lake Valley, passing many important transportation corridors, neighborhood nodes,
parks and other points of interest. Nowhere is this more obvious than at several of
the major potential gateways to the corridor; places where the 9 Line intersects with
important modes of transportation such as UTA Trax, or the Jordan River Parkway.
In order to increase its visibility, and to welcome potential corridor users, these
important intersections – major and minor – should be considered gateways, and
provide the appropriate amenities and infrastructure to that end. Moreover, they
should consider the needs of motorists, cyclists and pedestrians.
o Where the 9-line passes under I-15 is a major gateway and 700 West acts is identified
as a minor gateway.
o On 900 S between the I-15 node and the 9th and 9th node is identified as a Corridor
Type C - The corridor is widest in this area connecting users to regional parks and
neighborhood commercial centers along the paved trailway. This area features a
mixture of residential, commercial and light industrial uses. The neighborhood node
at 900 South & 900 West presents a strong opportunity to catalyze future
development
o I-15 Node Analysis and Potential - The 9 Line corridor changes dramatically between
I-15 and 900 West. Adjacent land uses in this section of the corridor transition from
commercial and light industrial on the eastern end to neighborhood commercial,
single-family residential and open space on the west end. There is some vacant land
and a new bike park adjacent to the Interstate which present opportunities for
programmed activities and other trailway development.
• Plan Salt Lake
o Growth – Promote infill and redevelopment of underutilized land.
o Housing – Direct new growth toward areas with existing infrastructure and services
that have the potential to be people oriented.
o Beautiful City - Support and encourage architecture, development, and infrastructure
that is people-focused, responds to its surrounding context and enhances the public
realm, reflects our diverse cultural, ethnic, and religious heritage and is sustainable,
using high quality materials and building standards.
o Create opportunities to connect with nature in urban areas.
o Reinforce and preserve neighborhood and district character and a strong sense of
place.
o Preservation - Preserve and enhance neighborhood and district character.
o Encourage the incorporation of historic elements into buildings, landscapes, public
spaces, streetscapes, neighborhoods, and districts where appropriate.
o Economy - Support the growth of small businesses, entrepreneurship and
neighborhood business nodes.
• Growing SLC
o Develop flexible zoning tools and regulations, with a focus along significant
transportation routes
o Support diverse and vibrant neighborhoods by aligning land use policies that
promote a housing market capable of accommodating residents throughout all stages
of life
Salt Lake City Comprehensive Housing Policy
The Salt Lake City Comprehensive Housing Policy was adopted on March 1, 2016.
The Housing Policy represents the City Council’s efforts to establish a policy
direction to address current conditions in Salt Lake City. The intent is that this
direction will be followed whenever the City engages in housing funding assistance,
zoning and land use planning, master planning neighborhoods, and creating
economic incentives. Additionally, the Housing Policy is intended to achieve the
following that relate to the requested rezone:
Foster and celebrate the urban residential tradition
Develop new housing opportunities throughout the City
Promote a diverse and balanced community by ensuring that a wide range of
housing types and choices exist for all income levels, age groups, and types of
households
• Transit Master Plan
o 900 S is identified as a high priority corridor as it provides opportunities for
additional east/west cross- town connections as well as connections. 900 W is also
discussed as improving connections to the neighboring Fairpark and Glendale
communities.
o Building off existing plans and policies, the Salt Lake City Transit Master Plan
recognizes the importance of land use, street connectivity, and placemaking to
implement a well-used and attractive frequent transit network (FTN). The FTN must
be supported by a concentration of land uses, connections to key destinations, a rich
mix of uses, and interconnected streets. The Transit Master Plan embraces these
concepts to help achieve the City’s goals to increase transit ridership in Salt Lake
City.
o Provide a rich mix of uses that support street-level activity throughout the day and
night. A diversity of land uses (including residential, commercial, industrial,
institutional, and recreational uses) promotes walking and transit ridership, and
reduces driving.
o A mix of land uses allows more daily needs to be met within shorter distances,
encouraging people to walk and take transit for more trips. Land use diversity also
creates a more interesting and active urban environment that makes walking and
taking transit feel safer and more attractive at all times of the day and night
o Salt Lake City also plays an important role in working with developers to set
standards for new development. These standards can help ensure land uses support
the FTN, including: Pedestrian-oriented design: Identify design standards that
promote pedestrian-oriented urban design features, such as active frontages built
right to the street with parking located at the rear of the building and landscaping
that provides a buffer between the sidewalk and the street.
o Land use and placemaking recommendations –Continue to monitor zoning along the
FTN to ensure transit is supported by a mix of uses, adequate densities, parking
requirements, and other transit supportive elements.
o Provide a mix of housing options along the FTN to support housing affordability and
diversity
Staff Discussion
As discussed in the considerations section of the staff report, the proposal generally complies
with the master plan policies for the area by providing the opportunity to add more compatible
commercial and residential infill along the 700 W corridor and along 900 S which acts as an
important gateway into the broader Westside community. The proximity to Downtown, the
Jordan River and the 9 Line Trail all make the area attractive to many residents.
The proposed R-MU zone would allow for residential uses that are not permitted under the
existing M-1 zoning designation, which further promotes the goals and visions of city plans by
promoting redevelopment of underutilized land. The proposed R-MU zone also restricts some of
the industrial uses allowed in M-1 that currently have a negative visual impact on this Westside
gateway such as outdoor storage of materials and finished products.
Analysis of Zoning
Amendment 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 The property is located within the Westside
Master Plan area. See Attachment D for
discussion of relevant City policies and plans
and the proposal’s compliance.
2. Whether a proposed
map amendment furthers
the specific purpose
statements of the zoning
ordinance.
Complies The purpose of the R-MU Residential/Mixed
Use District is to reinforce the mixed-use
character of the area and encourage the
development of areas as high density
residential urban neighborhoods containing
retail, service commercial, and small-scale
office uses. This district is appropriate in
areas of the City where the applicable
master plans support high density, mixed
use development. The standards for the
district are intended to facilitate the
creation of a walkable urban neighborhood
with an emphasis on pedestrian scale
activity while acknowledging the need for
transit and automobile access.
In compliance with this purpose statement,
the proposed location of the zoning district
fits the location criteria of the zone. The zone
would be located in an area supported by the
master plan for a mixed of uses including
high density residential. The standards of the
R-MU zone, such as distance from the
buildings to the sidewalk, also help promote
a walkable urban neighborhood with
pedestrian scale activity.
3. The extent to which a
proposed map
amendment will affect
adjacent properties;
Complies
The proposed R-MU zoning district would
allow a mix of land uses and residential uses
that are not currently allowed by the M-1
zoning. The development standards in the R-
MU zoning district are intended to
encourage the development of areas as a mix
of compatible residential and commercial
uses, which is consistent with the Master
Plan policies and goals in this area.
The proposal would add residential uses as
allowed uses to the properties; however,
even though the surrounding properties are
zoned M-1, many of the adjacent properties
contain residential uses so the proposed zone
would be more compatible with the existing
uses than the M-1 zoning district.
Many of the more visually and
environmentally impactful industrial uses
that are currently allowed in the M-1 zone
would no longer be allowed under the
requested zoning designation. See
Attachment C for a comparison of the
permitted and conditional uses in the M-1
and R-MU zone.
The proposed zoning district does allow for
heights up to 75’ for residential development,
which is an increase in 10’ from the 65’ that
is currently allowed in the M-1 zone,
however, staff does not believe that to be a
substantial change that would cause any
different or significantly increased impacts
than a 65' building. Additionally, the R-MU
zone requires a rear yard setback (25% of the
lot depth) whereas is in the M-1 zone, there
is no setback requirement and the allowed
uses may be more impactful to surrounding
residential uses.
The proposed R-MU zoning is not
anticipated to introduce substantive new or
additional negative impacts to adjacent
properties. The proposal will lessen the
potential for negative impacts in a number
of ways versus the current development
allowances under the M-1 zoning
designation. Given the likely future
transition of the area into one of mixed-use
zoning, specifically the 700 W industrial
corridor and the 900 S gateway into
Westside neighborhoods, having mixed-use
zoning along the frontage of 700 W as well
as 900 S is desirable in the context of future
development and plans for the area.

subject property,
including, but not limited

police and fire protection,
schools, stormwater

The subject property is located within a built
environment where public facilities and
services already exist. The site is currently
served by 900 south, 700 west, Genesee Ave,
and a public right of way. Future
development on these properties, such as
commercial or multifamily development may
require upgrading utilities and drainage
systems that serve the properties. Any
required infrastructure upgrades will be
evaluated with a specific site development
plan.
Comments from public utilities indicate the
water system in the area is undersized and
any new development may require utility
upgrades at the owner’s expense.
Additionally, there is a sewer main running
through the property that will need to be
abandoned or relocated or may limit
available building areas.

Public Process And
Comments
The following attachment lists the public meetings that have been held, and other public input
opportunities, related to the proposed project. All written comments that were received
throughout this process are included within this attachment.
Poplar Grove Community Council Meeting
The property is within the boundaries of Poplar Grove Community Council. Prior to submitting
the rezone application, the applicants attended the September 25, 2019 Poplar Grove Community
Council meeting, which was hosted on the subject site in the vacant warehouse buildings. During
the meeting the applicant discussed their plans to request a rezone for the properties and their
ideas and intent for future development of the site with multi-family housing. Planning Staff also
attended the meeting to answer any city process and zoning related questions. Questions were
asked about height, design standards, and building materials that would be applicable under the
requested R-MU zoning district.
Early Notification
A notice of application was sent to the chair of the Poplar Grove & Glendale Community Councils.
The Community Councils were given 45 days to respond with any concerns or comments.
Notice of the application was also sent to property owners and residents within 300 feet of the
project. The purpose of this notice is to inform surrounding property owners and residents that
an application has been submitted, provide details regarding the request, outline steps in the
planning review and decision making process, and to let them know how to obtain more
information and submit comments early on in the review process.
City Open House
Because the property is located within 600 feet of two community council districts, the City
Planning Division held an open house on January 16, 2020 for the proposal in order to obtain
feedback from residents and property owners and to provide information about the public process
and City regulations.
For the open house, the City provided mailed notice to residents and property owners within
approximately 300 feet of the proposal two weeks in advance of the open house. Notices were also
e-mailed to the City’s general Planning mailing list and to those individuals that requested notice
for meetings for the proposal.
Public Hearing Notice
The Planning Division provided the following notices for the Planning Commission meeting:
• Mailed notice sent March 26, 2020
• E-mailed notice to listserv sent March 26, 2020
• Public hearing notice signs posted on the property March 26, 2020
Public Input Received
Planning Staff received a letter of support from both the Poplar Grove Community Council and
the Glendale Community Council. No other formal public comments have been received as of the
publication of this staff report.
The adjacent property owner on the north east corner of the block occupied by the Summum
Pyrimid, came into the city planning office expressing concerns with setbacks of a new
development in relation to their property as well as potential residential uses on the site that could
be developed under the proposed R-MU zoning designation. Staff informed the adjacent property
owner to send an email to staff outlining these concerns and to submit any comments or questions
they had so they could be addressed. No comments or questions were ever submitted to planning
staff from this adjacent property owner.
The proposed R-MU zoning district has greater setback restrictions in relation to the adjacent
property than what could be developed under the existing M-1 zoning designation. Under the
proposed zoning R-MU zoning district, the interior side yard setback is the same as the interior
side yard setback of the existing M-1 zone (no setback required), and the proposed R-MU zone
does have a rear yard setback requirement of 25% of the lot depth up to 30 FT, compared to the
existing M-1 zone which does not have a rear yard setback requirement.

RE: 706-740 West 900 South Rezone Application
Dear Amy Thompson,
The Poplar Grove Community Council (PGCC) enthusiastically supports the request by West End
LLC, the owner of the property, to rezone ten parcels and a portion of a city owned public alley from
M-1 (Light Manufacturing) to R-MU (Residential Mixed Use). We believe that this rezone will jump
start and facilitate deliberate and proper redevelopment and investment in our neighborhood. West
End LLC has been a great partner to work. They have done a fantastic job of informing and
presenting their plans to the community throughout the entire process of making this redevelopment a
reality. Consider this letter of support a ringing endorsement from the community about the proposed
rezone!

To Whom It May Concern:
It is my pleasure to submit this letter on behalf of the Glendale Community
Council. After our extensive review, we would like to express our
enthusiastic support for the rezoning of the parcels located at 706-740 W.
900 S. from M-1 (Light Manufacturing) to R-MU (Residential Mixed Use).
With the current shortage of housing in Salt Lake City, more is always
welcome. Above that, though, the prospect of commercial development is
very exciting to us. Here on the west side, residents often have to travel
outside the neighborhood for basic things like shopping and dining;
projects like this are sorely needed.
The proposed development is exactly the kind of thing that Glendale's
residents have repeatedly expressed interest in for the past several years. It
will act as an anchor to bring much-anticipated commercial development to
the east side of the neighborhood and tie the neighborhood together in a
more cohesive manner. Adding more amenities to our community is a step
in the right direction and we look forward to seeing this development move
forward in the process.
Thank you for the opportunity to weigh in on the development. We greatly
appreciate the opportunity to engage in discussions affecting our
neighborhood.
Thank you,
Turner C. Bitton
Chair, Glendale Community Council

M-1 to R-MU
2
Summary PRELIMINARY
•Proposed zone amendment is consistent with the Westside Master Plan (WSMP) and 9 Line Corridor Master Plan
(9LMP)
•Zone amendment will positively impact the surrounding neighborhood by reinvigorating formerly blighted site with new
commercial and residential activity
•Site will become an attractive gateway to the Westside due to new commercial activity and multifamily infill. Zone
amendment will prevent incompatible industrial uses in this residential neighborhood and buffer residents from those
uses and I-15
3
West End Site PRELIMINARY
•Located at 706-740 West 900 South and 717-739 W
Genesee Street
•1.80 acres
•Acquired on February 8 and March 13, 2019 by High
Boy Ventures
•Consists of two vacant commercial buildings and open
land
•Financing for the adaptive re-use of the two buildings
(Phase I of redevelopment) obtained from the SLC
RDA. GSBS of Salt Lake City hired as project architect
•Requesting zone amendment from Light Manufacturing
(M-1) to Residential Mixed Use (R-MU)
4
Gateway to the Westside - WSMP
PRELIMINARY
•“One of the most common issues brought up in community meetings was the lack of connectivity between the Westside
and the rest of the city” (pg 13)
•WSMP main goal: “Strengthen the connections both within and between the Westside and other parts of Salt Lake
City by improving the community’s gateways and corridors and strengthening the transportation network for all modes
of travel” (pg 4)
5
Gateway to the Westside – 9LMP
PRELIMINARY
•The area around the I-15 underpass is a “major gateway” (pg
24) and a “key node” (pg 53)
•“As the 9 Line passes underneath the bridge at I-15, it becomes
an uncomfortable and unsafe experience. For many users of
the trail, this is a major gateway or connection point for east
to west travel or vice versa. However, in its current condition, it
feels more like a barrier” (pg 59)
•The improvement of the area is a “foundational project” (pg
59)
6
Gateway to the Westside PRELIMINARY
Site (green icon) can act as a gateway to the Westside, creating a more cohesive development pattern with the vibrant Granary
District (orange area) west of I-15 and the railroad tracks
7
Incompatible Industrial Use - WSMP
PRELIMINARY
•“[The 700 West Industrial Corridor] abuts single-family neighborhoods and schools, creating an uneven and undesirable
transition and an unattractive gateway” (pg 69)
Source: WSMP
Source: WSMP
8
Multifamily Infill – WSMP & 9LMP
PRELIMINARY
WSMP Goals:
•“Promote reinvestment and redevelopment in the Westside community through changes in land use, improved public
infrastructure and community investment to spur development that meets the community’s vision while maintaining the
character of Westside’s existing stable neighborhoods” (pg 4)
•“Protect and encourage ongoing investment in existing, low-density residential neighborhoods while providing attractive,
compatible and high density residential development where needed, appropriate or desired” (pg 4)
Source: WSMP
Source: 9LMP
9
West End Adaptive Re-use Development PRELIMINARY
•Site currently consists of vacant commercial structures and blighted land. Want to reenergize this area while
highlighting the site’s history and unique characteristics
•Opportunity to make a public gathering place accessible by the community, including those who come on foot
or bicycle
•Will also reinvigorate the currently neglected mid-block crossing to the west of our buildings
10
West End Adaptive Re-use Development PRELIMINARY
•Obtained a financing commitment from the RDA of SLC for building renovation. Commitment is contingent on
fulfilling several public benefit criteria
•Will create a nexus of activity at the connection point between the two buildings. Will result in services for not only
the local community and future multifamily residents but will also draw activity from the Granary District and greater
Downtown
•Will extend the vibrancy of the Granary District to the west of I-15 and increase usership of the Jordan River Trail

Dear Planning Commissioners :

Direct Dial : 801.257 .7942
e-mail: rrussell @parrbrown.com
This firm represents Summum with respect to the following matters . Summum is a religious
organization and owns the property located at 707 Genesee A venue in Salt Lake City. The
purpose for this letter is to submit and express Summum's comments and concerns with respect
to the above-referenced zoning applications . The zoning applications seek to re-zone the
properties located immediately adjacent to and surrounding the Summum property from the
current zoning of light manufacturing (M-1) to residential mixed use (R-MU). According to the
information we have been provided, the purpose for the requested re-zone is for the future
construction of a multi-family residential development.
Summum was established in 197 5 to reintroduce an ancient philosophy based on natural
principles of creation. Beginning in 1977, Summum constructed its iconic pyramid on its
Genesee property, which is surrounded by peaceful gardens. Summum's adherents view the
pyramid as a sanctuary and temple . The Summum temple was completed in 1979 and not only
provides a place of respite and sanctuary for its adherents, but has been an important part of Salt
Lake City's cultural and religious fabric for more than 40 years .
The Summum sanctuary is located in close proximity to Interstate 15. Because I-15 is elevated
at this location, the Summum property is currently nestled in a quiet and peaceful setting . The
proposed R-MU re-zone of the adjacent parcels, however, would permit the construction of
multi-family residential buildings that would completely surround the sanctuary to a height of 75
feet. The tall buildings would undoubtedly reflect and intensify the noise from Interstate 15
directly onto the Summum temple and would destroy the atmosphere of peace and serenity that
has been cultivated for the past four decades .
Summum recognizes the value of quality development in the area, but objects to the proposed
re-zone due to the excessive height of the buildings that would be permitted. Summum submits
that the R-MU 35 zone would better serve the interests of the community and better protect the
serenity of the Summum temple and gardens by restricting the height of buildings adjacent to the
property to no more than 3 5 feet.

In addition, Summum believes that a decision to approve an R-MU zone for the immediately
adjacent property would impose a direct and substantial burden on its right and the rights of its
members to practice their religion, in violation of federal law and the free exercise clause of the
First Amendment. Under the federal Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act
(RLUIP A), 11
[ n Jo government shall impose or implement a land use regulation in a manner that
imposes a substantial burden on the religious exercise of a person, including a religious assembly
or institution, unless the government demonstrates that imposition of the burden on that person,
assembly, or institution (A) is in furtherance of a compelling governmental interest; and (B) is
the least restrictive means of furthering that compelling governmental interest. 11 42 U.S .C . §
2000cc. This test both codifies and expands the free exercise protections of the First
Amendment, which likewise prohibits substantial burdens on religious exercise.
In applying these provisions, Congress has directed that RLUIPA is to be "construed in favor of
a broad protection of religious exercise, to the maximum extent permitted by the terms of this
chapter and the Constitution. 11 42 U.S.C . § 2000cc-3(g). The test the statute imposes, like the
First Amendment, is strict scrutiny, with the government bearing the significant burden of
showing that the interest served is truly compelling, and that there are no less restrictive
alternatives that could serve that interest. 42 U .S .C . § 2000cc-2(b ); see also Grace Church of N
Cnty . v. City of San Diego , 555 F . Supp. 2d 1126 , 1135 (S .D . Cal. 2008); Fortress Bible Church
v. Feiner, 734 F. Supp . 2d 409 (S.D .N.Y. 2010). Speculation, conclusory assertions, and
generalized land use analysis is not sufficient to carry that burden.
As described above, there is little question that a decision to approve an R-MU zone for the
adjacent property would impose a substantial burden on Summum's right to religious exercise.
Surrounding the Summum temple sanctuary with buildings 75 feet in height would destroy the
privacy and peacefulness of this religious sanctuary and would reflect and magnify noise from
the nearby elevated freeway . Moreover, there is no evidence that Salt Lake City has undertaken
the heavy burden of justifying such a decision under strict scrutiny. Mere land use decisions
such as changes to zoning classifications do not constitute the type of compelling government
interest required by law . See Grace Church, 555 F . Supp . 2d at 1140. Even if they did, there are
less restrictive means, such as the less intrusive R-MU35 zone, to accomplish the government's
interests in this particular area of the city that do not require encircling an active house of
worship with intrusive buildings . For all of those reasons , too, the re-zone should be rejected .
Thank you for your consideration of Summum's comments and objections to the re-zone
pet· · ons referenced above.

Re: PLNPCM2020-00442 - Zoning Map Amendment
Zoning Map Amendment
MASTER PLAN: Westside
ZONING DISTRICT: M-1 Light Manufacturing
PROPERTY ADDRESS: Approximately 715 W Genesee Avenue – includes 2 parcels and a
portion of a city owned public alley
REQUEST:
Maximilian Coreth, property owner, is requesting to rezone the parcel located at approximately
715 W Genesee Avenue (which will include the landlocked parcel located at approximately 710 W
900 S) and a portion of a city owned public alley at approximately 740 W 900 South. The
properties are currently zoned Light Manufacturing (M-1) and the request is to rezone them to
Residential Mixed Use (R-MU). The purpose of the requested rezone is to accommodate a future
multi-family residential development on a portion of the subject site. This rezone is in
conjunction with a previous rezone request in which the applicant requested to rezone 10 parcels
and a portion of city-owned alley adjacent to the subject parcel from M-1 to R-MU. This request
has already been presented to the Planning Commission.
RECOMMENDATION:
Based on the findings and analysis in this staff report and the factors to consider for zoning map
amendments in 21A.50.050 of the zoning ordinance, Planning Staff recommends that the
Planning Commission forward a positive recommendation to the City Council regarding this
proposal with the conditions noted below:
1. The rezone of the portion of the City owned alley included in the request is subject to the
petitioner entering into a Purchase Agreement with the City to acquire the vacated alley
if the alley vacation is approved by City Council.
2. Design standards for the D-2 zone shall be applied to any new development on the subject
site. This requirement could be executed through a development agreement with City
Council or some other mechanism decided on by City Council.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND:
The property owner, Maximilian Coreth, is requesting to rezone the subject parcel and a portion
of a city owned public alley from the current M-1 (Light Manufacturing) zoning designation to R-
MU (Residential Mixed Use). The total area of the proposed rezone is approximately .116 acres or
5,060 square feet. The subject parcel currently contains a single-family residential dwelling that
will be demolished as part of the overall development plan.
This rezone request is related to a rezone request and two alley vacation requests that have
previously been heard by the Planning Commission:
• December 11, 2019, the Planning Commission heard a request to vacate a small portion of
alley abutting the north property line of 740 W 900 S. The Commission voted
unanimously to forward a positive recommendation to the City Council.
• April 8, 2020, the Planning Commission heard a request for a zoning map amendment for
10 parcels and a portion of city-owned alley in the project area. The Commission voted 7-
1 in favor of forwarding a positive recommendation to the City Council.
• August 18, 2020, City Council approved this alley vacation.
• August 26, 2020, the Planning Commission heard a request to vacate a portion of alley
abutting the west property line of 740 W 900 S. The Commission voted unanimously to
forward a positive recommendation to City Council.
The requested rezone would accommodate future development of the vacant eastern portion of
the site for high density multi-family residential. The developer has not submitted a specific
development plan for the multi-family portion of the proposed development but has provided
detailed renderings depicting what is intended for the development. Please refer to Attachment
B for a detailed narrative submitted by the applicant for the proposed rezone.
The subject properties are located approximately 330 FT west of Interstate 15 along 900 S, one of
the gateways to the Westside neighborhoods. Several community uses surround the subject site
including the 9-line trail, 9-line dirt jumps and pump track, and community gardens. The
predominant street frontage of the vacant portion of the properties is along 900 S as well as 700
W. The surrounding properties on the block are zoned M-1, however, with the exception of just a
few properties, the primary use is predominantly single family residential. There is also a religious
use (Summum) adjacent to the site on the north east corner of the block.
The block to the north of the subject site is also zoned M-1 with uses that include commercial and
light manufacturing type uses as well as some residential uses. The block to the south of the
subject site is zoned M-1 with current uses that include Utah PaperBox, moving and storage
warehouses, and other light manufacturing uses.
Blocks south of the proposed rezone are zoned R-1/5,000 (Single Family Residential) and R-MU-
35 (Residential Mixed Use); blocks to the east on the other side of Interstate 15 are zoned CG
(General Commercial).
The primary reason for the rezone request is so the applicant will have the ability to develop the
properties for residential uses, which are not currently allowed under the existing M-1 zoning
designation. The M-1 zoning district allows for a variety of light manufacturing and industrial uses
that are not allowed in the proposed R-MU zone. Some examples of uses that are currently
permitted or conditional uses in the M-1 zone that would no longer be allowed in the proposed R-
MU zone include: bus line station/terminal, community correctional facility, impound lot,
industrial assembly, light manufacturing, and outdoor public storage. For a complete list of uses
that are allowed under the existing M-1 zone and the proposed R-MU zone, please refer to
Attachment C.
The properties could currently be developed for light industrial uses under the M-1 zoning district
designation. A full chart comparing the current M-1 zoning regulations and the proposed R-MU
zoning regulations is located in Attachment C. The following is a brief summary of some of the
development regulations that would change with the proposed rezone request:
Existing M-1 Zone Proposed R-MU Zone
Setbacks Front and corner side yard setback – 15’ Interior and rear yard setback – None Front, corner, and interior yard setback – None Rear yard setback – 25% of lot depth up to 30’
Height 65’ 75’ for residential uses 45’ for non-residential uses
Open Space None required 20% of lot for residential uses
Zoning Map Amendment Considerations
Planning staff is required by ordinance to analyze proposed zoning map amendments against
existing adopted City policies and other related adopted City regulations. Planning staff is also
directed to consider whether zoning text amendments implement best planning practices.
However, ultimately, a decision to amend the zoning map is fully up to the discretion of the City
Council and is not subject to any particular standard of review or consideration.
The full list of factors to consider for a zoning map amendment are located in Attachment E.
KEY CONSIDERATIONS:
The key considerations and concerns below have been identified through the analysis of the
project, neighbor and community input, and department reviews.
1. Existing Area Plan Guidance
2. Design Standards
Consideration 1: Existing City Plan Guidance – Westside Master Plan
For zoning map amendments, Planning Staff is directed by ordinance to consider the associated
City master plans and adopted policies that apply to a proposal. Staff reviews general City policies,
including adopted policies in Citywide master plans such as Plan Salt Lake, and considers plans
that are specific to an area. In this case the property is within the boundaries of the Westside
Master Plan that was developed specifically for this area. The full plan can be accessed here:
http://www.slcdocs.com/Planning/MasterPlansMaps/WSLMPA.pdf.
See Attachment D for policy statements and goals from various city plans that staff considered as
part of the review of this rezone request.
This project is situated along 900 S and the 700 W industrial corridor, an area that the Westside
Master Plan identifies as an important gateway into the larger Westside Community. Five of six
routes into the Westside from the east cut through the 700 West Industrial Corridor. As a result,
700 W is a significant part of the eastern gateways in the Westside. The impact is most evident
along 900 South, where one side of the street is residential and the other industrial. A first-time
visitor to the community, regardless of their mode of transportation, is first greeted by a land use
and development pattern that is not representative of the true character of the community. During
the public input gathering process for the Westside Master Plan, 900 S was generally considered
the gateway in need of the most attention. The proposed R-MU zoning district provides for a
vibrant mix of uses that are more consistent with the future development goals envisioned for this
area, than what could be developed under the existing M-1 zoning designation.
The proposed rezone is consistent with Master Plan goals to promote reinvestment and
redevelopment in the Westside community through changes in land use to spur development that
meets the community’s vision while maintaining the character of Westside’s existing stable
neighborhoods. The parcels included in the proposed rezone are currently underutilized mostly
vacant land that is identified in the Master Plan as an appropriate area for high density housing.
The development regulations in the proposed R-MU zone further these goals by providing for
attractive, compatible and high-density, mixed-use development with an emphasis on pedestrian
scale activity while acknowledging the need for transit and automobile access.
Consideration 2: Design Standards
The proposed R-MU zoning district only has two design standards that would apply to any new
development under that zoning designation. Those design standards are a 40% ground floor glass
requirement for facades facing a street, and the 15 FT maximum length of any blank wall
uninterrupted by windows, doors, art or architectural detailing at the ground floor level along any
street facing facade. Under the R-MU design standards, something like structured parking could
be located on the ground floor, which would not be consistent with the active pedestrian-oriented
design envisioned in the master plan for this important gateway. The design standards are
intended to utilize planning and architecture principles to shape and promote a walkable
environment, foster place making as a community and economic development tool, protect
property values, assist in maintaining the established character of the City, and implement the
City's master plans.
Master Plan policies in the area as well as planning best practices suggest that a new development
in this area would benefit from additional design standards such as an active ground floor use and
durable building material requirements on ground and upper floors, to encourage pedestrian
activity and a vibrant active mixed-use gateway into the westside neighborhoods. Planning Staff
is of the opinion the design standards in section 21A.37 applicable to the D-2 zoning district
should be applied to any new project on the subject parcels developed under the proposed R-MU
zoning district. One way this could be accomplished is through a development agreement.
Development agreements can only be approved by the City Council. The following are the design
standards Planning Staff is recommending are imposed on the rezone request:
Design Standards
Ground Floor Use % 75
Ground Floor Use + Visual Interest % 60/25
Building Materials – Ground Floor 80
Building Materials – Upper Floors 50
Glass – Ground Floor % 40
Glass – Upper Floors % 25
Building Entrances (feet) 50
Blank Wall – Maximum Length (feet) 15
Street Facing Façade – Maximum Length (feet) 200
Upper Floor Step Back (feet)
Lighting – Exterior X
Lighting – Parking Lot X
Screening Mechanical Equipment X
Screening of Service Areas X
Parking Garages or Structures X
A definition of each of the design standards above can be found in section 21A.347.050 of the
zoning ordinance.
NEXT STEPS:
The Planning Commission can provide a positive or negative recommendation for the proposal
and as part of a recommendation, can add conditions or request that changes be made to the
proposal. The recommendation and any requested conditions/changes will be sent to the City
Council, who will hold a briefing and additional public hearing on the proposed zoning changes.
The City Council may make modifications to the proposal and approve or decline to approve the
proposed zoning map amendment.
If ultimately approved by the City Council, the changes would be incorporated into the official
City Zoning map and any new development on the rezoned parcels would be required to follow
the regulations of the R-MU zoning district along with any development agreement requirements
adopted by the City Council.
If the proposed zoning amendment is not approved by the City Council, the property could still be
developed under its current M-1 zoning designation, however, the property would not be able to
be developed for multi-family residential uses as they are not permitted in the light manufacturing
zoning district.

City Plan Considerations
Adopted City Plan Policies and Guidance
Zoning map amendments are reviewed for compliance with City master plans and adopted
policies. The below plans were adopted for the area:
• Westside Master Plan (Current Community Plan)
o The subject properties are located along the north end of the 700 West industrial
corridor which is between I-15 and 800 West from 800 South to approximately 1700
South.
o The steps identified for gradual change along the 700 West corridor include —zoning
changes, design guidelines and capital improvements.
o The plan includes several goals for increasing the community’s residential density.
o Adding more commercial and multi-family residential infill should be pursued when
the opportunity for redevelopment arises along the corridor.
o Residents’ ideas for the future of the 700 West corridor had a focus on phasing out of
the intense industrial uses.
o Consider permitting residential and commercial infill on vacant parcels in the
industrial corridor. Height and bulk regulations for infill development should be as
flexible in order to achieve high density development (50 or more dwelling units per
acre).
o Identify underutilized or unmaintained areas within large residential blocks in the
Westside. These mid-block areas should be targeted for development through flexible
zoning and design standards.
o Some design elements that are used to increase density, such as height and bulk, can
be made compatible through appropriate architectural design and landscaping
techniques.
o Review the uses that are permitted in the current light manufacturing zoning district
and determine if a new zone may be more appropriate. A new district should more
specifically regulate building and site design and should completely prohibit any uses
that produce noxious odors, fumes or other discharge or other uses that rely heavily
on outdoor storage.
• 9 Line Corridor Master Plan
o Major & Minor Gateways - The 9 Line enjoys an excellent relative location in the Salt
Lake Valley, passing many important transportation corridors, neighborhood nodes,
parks and other points of interest. Nowhere is this more obvious than at several of
the major potential gateways to the corridor; places where the 9 Line intersects with
important modes of transportation such as UTA Trax, or the Jordan River Parkway.
In order to increase its visibility, and to welcome potential corridor users, these
important intersections – major and minor – should be considered gateways, and
provide the appropriate amenities and infrastructure to that end. Moreover, they
should consider the needs of motorists, cyclists and pedestrians.
o Where the 9-line passes under I-15 is a major gateway and 700 West acts is identified
as a minor gateway.
o On 900 S between the I-15 node and the 9th and 9th node is identified as a Corridor
Type C - The corridor is widest in this area connecting users to regional parks and
neighborhood commercial centers along the paved trailway. This area features a
mixture of residential, commercial and light industrial uses. The neighborhood node
at 900 South & 900 West presents a strong opportunity to catalyze future
development
o I-15 Node Analysis and Potential - The 9 Line corridor changes dramatically between
I-15 and 900 West. Adjacent land uses in this section of the corridor transition from
commercial and light industrial on the eastern end to neighborhood commercial,
single-family residential and open space on the west end. There is some vacant land
and a new bike park adjacent to the Interstate which present opportunities for
programmed activities and other trailway development.
• Plan Salt Lake
o Growth – Promote infill and redevelopment of underutilized land.
o Housing – Direct new growth toward areas with existing infrastructure and services
that have the potential to be people oriented.
o Beautiful City - Support and encourage architecture, development, and infrastructure
that is people-focused, responds to its surrounding context and enhances the public
realm, reflects our diverse cultural, ethnic, and religious heritage and is sustainable,
using high quality materials and building standards.
o Create opportunities to connect with nature in urban areas.
o Reinforce and preserve neighborhood and district character and a strong sense of
place.
o Preservation - Preserve and enhance neighborhood and district character.
o Encourage the incorporation of historic elements into buildings, landscapes, public
spaces, streetscapes, neighborhoods, and districts where appropriate.
o Economy - Support the growth of small businesses, entrepreneurship and
neighborhood business nodes.
• Growing SLC
o Develop flexible zoning tools and regulations, with a focus along significant
transportation routes
o Support diverse and vibrant neighborhoods by aligning land use policies that
promote a housing market capable of accommodating residents throughout all stages
of life
Salt Lake City Comprehensive Housing Policy
The Salt Lake City Comprehensive Housing Policy was adopted on March 1, 2016.
The Housing Policy represents the City Council’s efforts to establish a policy
direction to address current conditions in Salt Lake City. The intent is that this
direction will be followed whenever the City engages in housing funding assistance,
zoning and land use planning, master planning neighborhoods, and creating
economic incentives. Additionally, the Housing Policy is intended to achieve the
following that relate to the requested rezone:
Foster and celebrate the urban residential tradition
Develop new housing opportunities throughout the City
Promote a diverse and balanced community by ensuring that a wide range of
housing types and choices exist for all income levels, age groups, and types of
households
• Transit Master Plan
o 900 S is identified as a high priority corridor as it provides opportunities for
additional east/west cross- town connections as well as connections. 900 W is also
discussed as improving connections to the neighboring Fairpark and Glendale
communities.
o Building off existing plans and policies, the Salt Lake City Transit Master Plan
recognizes the importance of land use, street connectivity, and placemaking to
implement a well-used and attractive frequent transit network (FTN). The FTN must
be supported by a concentration of land uses, connections to key destinations, a rich
mix of uses, and interconnected streets. The Transit Master Plan embraces these
concepts to help achieve the City’s goals to increase transit ridership in Salt Lake
City.
o Provide a rich mix of uses that support street-level activity throughout the day and
night. A diversity of land uses (including residential, commercial, industrial,
institutional, and recreational uses) promotes walking and transit ridership, and
reduces driving.
o A mix of land uses allows more daily needs to be met within shorter distances,
encouraging people to walk and take transit for more trips. Land use diversity also
creates a more interesting and active urban environment that makes walking and
taking transit feel safer and more attractive at all times of the day and night
o Salt Lake City also plays an important role in working with developers to set
standards for new development. These standards can help ensure land uses support
the FTN, including: Pedestrian-oriented design: Identify design standards that
promote pedestrian-oriented urban design features, such as active frontages built
right to the street with parking located at the rear of the building and landscaping
that provides a buffer between the sidewalk and the street.
o Land use and placemaking recommendations –Continue to monitor zoning along the
FTN to ensure transit is supported by a mix of uses, adequate densities, parking
requirements, and other transit supportive elements.
o Provide a mix of housing options along the FTN to support housing affordability and
diversity
Staff Discussion
As discussed in the considerations section of the staff report, the proposal generally complies
with the master plan policies for the area by providing the opportunity to add more compatible
commercial and residential infill along the 700 W corridor and along 900 S which acts as an
important gateway into the broader Westside community. The proximity to Downtown, the
Jordan River and the 9 Line Trail all make the area attractive to many residents.
The proposed R-MU zone would allow for residential uses that are not permitted under the
existing M-1 zoning designation, which further promotes the goals and visions of city plans by
promoting redevelopment of underutilized land. The proposed R-MU zone also restricts some of
the industrial uses allowed in M-1 that currently have a negative visual impact on this Westside
gateway such as outdoor storage of materials and finished products.
Analysis of Zoning
Amendment 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 The property is located within the Westside
Master Plan area. See Attachment D for
discussion of relevant City policies and plans
and the proposal’s compliance.
2. Whether a proposed
map amendment furthers
the specific purpose
statements of the zoning
ordinance.
Complies The purpose of the R-MU Residential/Mixed
Use District is to reinforce the mixed-use
character of the area and encourage the
development of areas as high density
residential urban neighborhoods containing
retail, service commercial, and small-scale
office uses. This district is appropriate in
areas of the City where the applicable
master plans support high density, mixed
use development. The standards for the
district are intended to facilitate the
creation of a walkable urban neighborhood
with an emphasis on pedestrian scale
activity while acknowledging the need for
transit and automobile access.
In compliance with this purpose statement,
the proposed location of the zoning district
fits the location criteria of the zone. The zone
would be located in an area supported by the
master plan for a mixed of uses including
high density residential. The standards of the
R-MU zone, such as distance from the
buildings to the sidewalk, also help promote
a walkable urban neighborhood with
pedestrian scale activity.
3. The extent to which a
proposed map
amendment will affect
adjacent properties;
Complies
The proposed R-MU zoning district would
allow a mix of land uses and residential uses
that are not currently allowed by the M-1
zoning. The development standards in the R-
MU zoning district are intended to
encourage the development of areas as a mix
of compatible residential and commercial
uses, which is consistent with the Master
Plan policies and goals in this area.
The proposal would add residential uses as
allowed uses to the properties; however,
even though the surrounding properties are
zoned M-1, many of the adjacent properties
contain residential uses so the proposed zone
would be more compatible with the existing
uses than the M-1 zoning district.
Many of the more visually and
environmentally impactful industrial uses
that are currently allowed in the M-1 zone
would no longer be allowed under the
requested zoning designation. See
Attachment C for a comparison of the
permitted and conditional uses in the M-1
and R-MU zone.
The proposed zoning district does allow for
heights up to 75’ for residential development,
which is an increase in 10’ from the 65’ that
is currently allowed in the M-1 zone,
however, staff does not believe that to be a
substantial change that would cause any
different or significantly increased impacts
than a 65' building. Additionally, the R-MU
zone requires a rear yard setback (25% of the
lot depth) whereas is in the M-1 zone, there
is no setback requirement and the allowed
uses may be more impactful to surrounding
residential uses.
The proposed R-MU zoning is not
anticipated to introduce substantive new or
additional negative impacts to adjacent
properties. The proposal will lessen the
potential for negative impacts in a number
of ways versus the current development
allowances under the M-1 zoning
designation. Given the likely future
transition of the area into one of mixed-use
zoning, specifically the 700 W industrial
corridor and the 900 S gateway into
Westside neighborhoods, having mixed-use
zoning along the frontage of 700 W as well
as 900 S is desirable in the context of future
development and plans for the area.

Public Process And
Comments
The following attachment lists the public meetings that have been held, and other public input
opportunities, related to the proposed project. All written comments that were received
throughout this process are included within this attachment.
Poplar Grove and Glendale Community Council Meetings
The property is within the boundaries of Poplar Grove Community Council. Planning staff nor
the applicant were invited to speak at a Poplar Grove or Glendale Community Council meeting
regarding this proposed zoning map amendment request; however, prior to submitting the
previous rezone application, the applicants attended the September 25, 2019 Poplar Grove
Community Council meeting, which was hosted on the subject site in the vacant warehouse
buildings. During the meeting the applicant discussed their plans to request a rezone for the
properties and their ideas and intent for future development of the site with multi-family housing.
Planning Staff also attended the meeting to answer any city process and zoning related questions.
Questions were asked about height, design standards, and building materials that would be
applicable under the requested R-MU zoning district.
Early Notification
A notice of application was sent to the chair of the Poplar Grove & Glendale Community Councils.
The Community Councils were given 45 days to respond with any concerns or comments.
Notice of the application was also sent to property owners and residents within 300 feet of the
project. The purpose of this notice is to inform surrounding property owners and residents that
an application has been submitted, provide details regarding the request, outline steps in the
planning review and decision making process, and to let them know how to obtain more
information and submit comments early on in the review process.
City Open House
Because the property is located within 600 feet of two community council districts, the City
Planning Division held an online open house on the Salt Lake City website for the proposal in
order to obtain feedback from residents and property owners and to provide information about
the public process and City regulations.
For the open house, the City provided mailed notice to residents and property owners within
approximately 300 feet of the proposal two weeks in advance of the open house. Notices were also
e-mailed to the City’s general Planning mailing list and to those individuals that requested notice
for meetings for the proposal.

RE: PLNPCM2020-00442
Dear Chris,
It is my pleasure to submit this letter on behalf of the Glendale Community
Council. After our review, we would like to express our enthusiastic support
for the zoning map amendment proposed in this development. With the
current shortage of housing in Salt Lake City, more is always welcome.
Above that, though, the prospect of commercial development is very
exciting to us. Here on the west side, residents often have to travel outside
the neighborhood for basic things like shopping and dining; projects like
this are sorely needed.
The proposed development is exactly the kind of thing that Glendale's
residents have repeatedly expressed interest in for the past several years. It
will act as an anchor to bring much-anticipated commercial development to
the east side of the neighborhood and tie the neighborhood together in a
more cohesive manner. Adding more amenities to our community is a step
in the right direction and we look forward to seeing this development move
forward in the process.
Thank you for the opportunity to weigh in on the development. We greatly
appreciate the opportunity to engage in discussions affecting our
neighborhood.
Thank you,
Turner C. Bitton
Chair, Glendale Community Council

STAFF CONTACT: Cindy Lou Trishman, City Recorder 801-535-6223
Lauren Shafer, Deputy City Recorder Elections
Coordinator 801-535-6221
DOCUMENT TYPE: Resolution, and Interlocal Cooperation Agreement.
RECOMMENDATION: Request the City Council adopt the proposed Resolution
authorizing the approval of an Interlocal Agreement between Salt Lake City Corporation
and Salt Lake County for the County to provide Vote-by-Mail election services for the
2021 Municipal Election as outlined and attached. The County has requested adoption by
April 30, 2021.
BUDGET IMPACT: Salt Lake County’s good faith estimate for the 2021 Municipal
Election is $130,218. The estimate is based on variables including the offices scheduled
for election, number of registered voters, jurisdictions participating, and any direct costs
incurred. The City will be invoiced for its pro-rated share of the actual costs of the
elections, which will not exceed the estimate.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Salt Lake County intends to run a predominantly Vote-by-Mail election with the
possibility of consolidated polls throughout the City at the discretion of the County. If
determined to use Ranked Choice Voting, Salt Lake County’s software has a limitation of
10 rankings per race. There is no limitation on how many candidates are in any given
race, but only 10 rankings can be made. The limitation is due to the width of the ballot
and the timing marks required for the border of the ballot for scanning and tabulation.
Assumptions for providing the 2021 estimate of $130,218 consist of:
• Active voters (as of 1/1/2021): 107,310
• Possible Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) Primary Election
• Possible RCV General Election for Council Districts 1, 3, 5 and 7 and a possible
ballot proposition
PUBLIC PROCESS: None.

INTERLOCAL COOPERATION AGREEMENT
between
SALT LAKE CITY CORPORATION
and
SALT LAKE COUNTY on behalf of the
COUNTY CLERK’S ELECTION’S DIVISION
FOR MUNICIPAL ELECTION
THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into the ____ day of
_______________, 2021, by and between SALT LAKE COUNTY (the “County”), a body
corporate and politic of the State of Utah, on behalf of the Salt Lake County Clerk’s
Office, Elections Division; and SALT LAKE CITY CORPORATION (the “City”) a
municipal corporation created under the laws of the State of Utah.
RECITALS:
WHEREAS, the County desires to provide the services of its clerk’s office,
elections division, to the City for the purpose of assisting the City in conducting the
City’s 2021 primary and general municipal elections; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to engage the County for such services; and
WHEREAS, the parties are public agencies and are therefore authorized by the
Utah Interlocal Cooperation Act, UTAH CODE ANN. §§ 11-13-101 to -608 (2018), to enter
into agreements to cooperate with each other in a manner which will enable them to
make the most efficient use of their resources and powers.
AGREEMENT:
NOW THEREFORE, in exchange for valuable consideration, including the mutual
covenants contained in this Agreement, the parties covenant and agree as follows:
2
1. Term. The County shall provide election services described below to the
City commencing on the date this Agreement is executed and terminating on December
31, 2021. Either party may cancel this Agreement upon thirty (30) days written notice to
the other party. Upon such cancellation, each party shall retain ownership of any
property it owned prior to the date of this Agreement, and the City shall own any
property it created or acquired pursuant to this Agreement.
2. Scope of Work. The services to be provided by the County shall be as set
forth in the Scope of Work, attached hereto and incorporated by reference as Exhibit
“A.” Generally, the County shall perform the listed election functions as set forth in
Exhibit “A” and as needed to ensure implementation of the City’s 2021 primary and
general municipal elections.
3. Legal Requirements.
a. The County and the City understand and agree that the 2021 City
primary and general municipal elections are the City’s elections. The City shall be
responsible for compliance with all legal requirements for these elections. The
City agrees to translate ballot issues, if any, into Spanish. The County will
provide the remaining Spanish translations for the ballot and other election
materials as required by law. The County agrees to work with the City in
complying with all legal requirements for the conduct of these elections and
conduct these elections pursuant to the direction of the City, except as provided
in this Agreement and Exhibit “A.” The County agrees to disclose and maintain
election results through its website merely as a courtesy and convenience to the
City. The City, and not the County, is responsible to resolve any and all election
3
questions, problems, and legal issues that are within the City’s statutory
authority.
b. The County and the City understand and agree that if the County
offers services or resources to conduct an instant runoff voting election, or rank
choice voting, as described in sections 20A-4-603 and -604, UTAH CODE ANN.
(2018), the County will provide the estimated cost of administering such an
election.
c. In accordance with 20A-4-602(3)(a), the City shall provide the Lt.
Governor and the County notice of its intent to use Rank Choice Voting as its
selected method of voting, no later than April 15, 2021.
4. Cost. In consideration of the services performed under this Agreement,
the City shall be obligated to pay the County. If the City selects a traditional vote
election, the City shall pay an amount not to exceed the estimate attached hereto and
incorporated by reference as Exhibit “B,” If the City selects an instant runoff voting
election/rank choice voting election, an estimate of such services shall be provided
attached hereto and incorporated by reference as Exhibit “B.” The County shall provide
a written invoice to the City at the conclusion of the elections, and the City shall pay
the County within thirty days of receiving the invoice. The invoice shall contain a
summary of the costs of the election and shall provide the formula for allocating the
costs among the issues and jurisdictions participating in the elections. In the case of a
vote recount, election system audit, election contest, or similar event arising out of the
City’s election, the City shall pay the County’s actual costs of responding to such
events, based on a written invoice provided by the County. The invoice amount for
these additional services may cause the total cost to the City to exceed the estimate
4
given to the City by the County. For such consideration, the County shall furnish all
materials, labor and equipment to complete the requirements and conditions of this
Agreement.
5. Governmental Immunity. The City and the County are governmental
entities and subject to the Governmental Immunity Act of Utah, UTAH CODE ANN. §§
63G-7-101 to –904 (2018) (the “Governmental Immunity Act”). Nothing in this
Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of any rights, statutory limitations on liability, or
defenses applicable to the City or the County under the Governmental Immunity Act or
common law. Each party shall retain liability and responsibility for the acts and
omissions of their representative officers. In no event shall this Agreement be
construed to establish a partnership, joint venture or other similar relationship between
the parties and nothing contained herein shall authorize either party to act as an agent
for the other. Each of the parties hereto assumes full responsibility for the negligent
operations, acts and omissions of its own employees, agents and contractors. It is not
the intent of the parties to incur by this Agreement any liability for the negligent
operations, acts, or omissions of the other party or its agents, employees, or
contractors.
6. No Obligations to Third Parties. The parties agree that the County’s
obligations under this Agreement are solely to the City. This Agreement shall not
confer any rights to third parties.
7. Indemnification. Subject to the provisions of the Act, the City agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the County, its agents, officers and employees from and
against any and all actions, claims, lawsuits, proceedings, liability, damages, losses and
expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs), arising out of or resulting from the
5
performance of this Agreement to the extent the same are caused by any negligent or
wrongful act, error or omission of the City, its officers, agents and employees and
including but not limited to claims that the County violated any state or federal law in the
provision of election services under this Agreement.
8. Election Records. The City shall maintain and keep control of all records
created pursuant to this Agreement and from the elections relevant to this Agreement.
The City shall respond to all public record requests related to this Agreement and the
underlying elections and shall retain all election records consistent with the Government
Records Access and Management Act, UTAH CODE ANN. §§ 63G-2-101 to -901 (2018),
and all other relevant local, state and federal laws.
9. Service Cancellation. If this Agreement is canceled by the City as
provided above, the City shall pay the County on the basis of the actual services
performed according to the terms of this Agreement. Upon cancellation of this
Agreement by either party, the County shall submit to the City an itemized statement for
services rendered under this Agreement up to the time of cancellation and based upon
the dollar amounts for materials, equipment and services set forth herein.
10. Legal Compliance. The County, as part of the consideration herein, shall
comply with all applicable federal, state and county laws governing elections.
11. Agency. No agent, employee or servant of the City or the County is or
shall be deemed to be an employee, agent or servant of the other party. None of the
benefits provided by either party to its employees including, but not limited to, workers’
compensation insurance, health insurance and unemployment insurance, are available
to the employees, agents, or servants of the other party. The City and the County shall
6
each be solely and entirely responsible for its own acts and for the acts of its own
agents, employees and servants during the performance of this Agreement.
12. Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable for any excess costs if the
failure to perform arises from causes beyond the control and without the fault or
negligence of that party, e.g., acts of God, fires, floods, strikes or unusually severe
weather. If such condition continues for a period in excess of 60 days, the City or the
County shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without liability or penalty
effective upon written notice to the other party.
13. Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be
given under this Agreement shall be deemed sufficient if given by a written communication
and shall be deemed to have been received upon personal delivery, actual receipt, or
within three (3) days after such notice is deposited in the United States mail, postage
prepaid, and certified and addressed to the parties as set forth below:

14. Required Insurance Policies. Both parties to this Agreement shall
maintain insurance or self-insurance coverage sufficient to meet their obligations
hereunder and consistent with applicable law.
15. Independent Contractor. Because the County is consolidating election
functions in order to conduct multiple, simultaneous elections on August 10, 2021, and
on November 2, 2021, certain decisions by the County referenced in Exhibit “A” may not
be subject to review by the City. It is therefore understood by the parties that the County
will act as an independent contractor with regard to its decisions regarding resources,
procedures and policies based upon providing the same scope and level of service to all
participating jurisdictions made for the benefit of the whole as set forth in Exhibit “A.”
16. No Officer or Employee Interest. It is understood and agreed that no
officer or employee of the County has or shall have any pecuniary interest, direct or
indirect, in this Agreement or the proceeds resulting from the performance of this
Agreement. No officer or employee of the City or any member of their families shall
serve on any County board or committee or hold any such position which either by rule,
practice or action nominates, recommends or supervises the City’s operations or
authorizes funding or payments to the City with respect to this Agreement.
17. Ethical Standards. The City represents that it has not: (a) provided an
illegal gift to any County officer or employee, or former County officer or employee, or to
any relative or business entity of a County officer or employee, or relative or business
entity of a former County officer or employee; (b) retained any person to solicit or secure
this contract upon an agreement or understanding for a commission, percentage,
brokerage or contingent fee, other than bona fide employees of bona fide commercial
agencies established for the purpose of securing business; (c) breached any of the
8
ethical standards set forth in State statute or section 2.07, Salt Lake County Code of
Ordinances; or (d) knowingly influenced, and hereby promises that it will not knowingly
influence, any County officer or employee or former County officer or employee to
breach any of the ethical standards set forth in State statute or Salt Lake County
ordinance.
18. Interlocal Agreement. In satisfaction of the requirements of the Utah
Interlocal Cooperation Act, UTAH CODE ANN. §§ 11-13-101 to -608 (2018), (the
“Interlocal Act”), in connection with this Agreement, the City and the County agree as
follows:
a. This Agreement shall be approved by each party, pursuant to
section 11-13-202.5 of the Interlocal Act;
b. This Agreement shall be reviewed as to proper form and
compliance with applicable law by a duly authorized attorney on behalf of each
party, pursuant to Section 11-13-202.5 of the Interlocal Act;
c. A duly executed original counterpart of this Agreement shall be filed
with the keeper of records of each party, pursuant to section 11-13-209 of the
Interlocal Act;
d. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each party shall
be responsible for its own costs of any action performed pursuant to this
Agreement, and for any financing of such costs; and
e. No separate legal entity is created by the terms of this Agreement.
No real or personal property shall be acquired jointly by the parties as a result of
this Agreement. To the extent that a party acquires, holds or disposes of any real
or personal property for use in the joint or cooperative undertaking contemplated
9
by this Agreement, such party shall do so in the same manner that it deals with
other property of such party. To the extent that this Agreement requires
administration other than as set forth herein, it will be administered by a joint
board of the County Clerk and the City Recorder, or their designees.

Exhibit “A”
2021 Municipal Elections
Scope of Work
Traditional Voting
The City agrees to the consolidation of all election administrative functions to ensure the successful
conduct of multiple, simultaneous municipal, local district elections and county elections and the County
agrees to conduct vote by mail/consolidated polls elections for the City.
In a consolidated election, decisions made by the County regarding resources, procedures and policies
are based upon providing the same scope and level of service to all the participating jurisdictions and
the City recognizes that such decisions, made for the benefit of the whole, may not be subject to review
by the City.
Services the County will perform for the City include, but are not limited to:
• Ballot layout and design
• Ballot ordering and printing
• Machine programming and testing
• Delivery of supplies and equipment
• Provision of all supplies
• Election vote center/early vote locations
• Vote by Mail administration
• Updating state and county websites
• Tabulating, reporting, auditing and preparing canvassing election results
• Conducting recounts as needed
• All notices and mailings required by law (except those required by Utah Code Ann. Ch. 11-14,
Part 2 and § 20A-9-203)

training, polling places, rovers.
The City will provide the County Clerk with information, decisions, and resolutions and will take
appropriate actions required for the conduct of the elections in a timely manner.

variable and are based upon the offices scheduled for election, the number of voters, the number of
jurisdictions participating as well as any direct costs incurred.
The City will be invoiced for its pro-rata share of the actual costs of the elections which will not exceed
the estimate in Exhibit B. In the event of a state or county special election being held in conjunction
with a municipal election, the scope of services and associated costs, and the method of calculating
those costs, will remain unchanged.
Rank Choice Voting
The City agrees to the consolidation of all election administrative functions to ensure the successful
conduct of multiple, simultaneous municipal, local district elections and county elections and the County
agrees to conduct vote by mail/consolidated polls elections for the City.
The City agrees and understands that choosing to hold Rank Choice Voting will eliminate the need for a
primary election.
The City agrees and understands that the County can perform Rank Choice Voting for races that rank up
to 10 candidates. The County is unable to rank more than 10 candidates in any given race.
In a consolidated election, decisions made by the County regarding resources, procedures and policies
are based upon providing the same scope and level of service to all the participating jurisdictions and
the City recognizes that such decisions, made for the benefit of the whole, may not be subject to review
by the City.

The County will provide a good faith estimate for budgeting purposes (Exhibit “B”). Election costs are

SUBJECT: Interlocal Cooperation Agreement between Salt Lake County and Salt Lake City for
Corridor Preservation Funds used for the 700 South Re-Construction Project
STAFF CONTACT: Matthew Cassel, City Engineer, matthew.cassel@slcgov.com, 535-6140
DOCUMENT TYPE: Resolution (Salt Lake County)
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the Mayor of Salt Lake City to sign the interlocal
agreement for the City.
BUDGET IMPACT: Salt Lake City was granted $611,500 of Corridor Preservation Funds for
the purchase of land from Suburban Land Reserve (SLR) for the re-alignment of 700 South just
east of 5600 West. Salt Lake County administers the Corridor Preservation Fund grant program.
The final negotiated property cost of the land was $896,152.50. Existing project funds were used
to make up the difference between the final cost and the Corridor Preservation Fund amounts.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The Corridor Preservation Funds were used to purchase
property from SLR for the realignment of 700 South. UDOT is reconstructing 5600 West, which
will make the current 700 South/5600 West intersection non-functional once UDOT’s project is
complete.
The Corridor Preservation Fund program is financed through the collection of vehicle
registration fees ($3.00 per vehicle) and administered by the County. The fund’s purpose is to
provide grant funds to Cities with the goal to preserve highway or public transit corridors that are
right-of-ways. Staff applied for funds in July 2018 and were awarded funds in the amount of
March 22, 2021
Lisa Shaffer (Mar 23, 2021 12:44 MDT)
03/23/2021
03/23/2021
$611,500 later that fall. Using existing project road funds, staff paid SLR through two wire
transfers with the last one on August 14, 2019. The County requires proof of payment before
reimbursement. The paid invoices were sent to the County a while ago and now the next to last
step is to process the Inter-local Agreement so the City can be reimbursed with the Corridor
Preservation Funds.
Engineering staff request these funds to be returned to the 700 South project cost center so the
last segment of 700 South can be completed as it crosses the Union Pacific Railroad
(approximately 4700 West to 5000 West).

STAFF CONTACT: Cindy Lou Trishman, City Recorder 801-535-6223
Lauren Shafer, Deputy City Recorder Elections
Coordinator 801-535-6221
DOCUMENT TYPE: Resolution, and Interlocal Cooperation Agreement.
RECOMMENDATION: Request the City Council adopt the proposed Resolution
authorizing the approval of an Interlocal Agreement between Salt Lake City Corporation
and Salt Lake County for the County to provide Vote-by-Mail election services for the
2021 Municipal Election as outlined and attached. The County has requested adoption by
April 30, 2021.
BUDGET IMPACT: Salt Lake County’s good faith estimate for the 2021 Municipal
Election is $145,642. The estimate is based on variables including the offices scheduled
for election, number of registered voters, jurisdictions participating, and any direct costs
incurred. The City will be invoiced for its pro-rated share of the actual costs of the
elections, which will not exceed the estimate.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Salt Lake County intends to run a predominantly Vote-by-Mail election with the
possibility of consolidated polls throughout the City at the discretion of the County. If
determined to use Ranked Choice Voting, Salt Lake County’s software has a limitation of
10 rankings per race. There is no limitation on how many candidates are in any given
race, but only 10 rankings can be made. The limitation is due to the width of the ballot
and the timing marks required for the border of the ballot for scanning and tabulation.
Assumptions for providing the 2021 estimate of $145,642 consist of:
•Active voters (as of 3/8/2021): 70,027
•Possible Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) Primary Election
•Possible RCV General Election for Council Districts 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 and a
possible ballot proposition

WHEREAS, the County desires to provide the services of its clerk’s office,
elections division, to the City for the purpose of assisting the City in conducting the
City’s 2021 primary and general municipal elections; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to engage the County for such services; and
WHEREAS, the parties are public agencies and are therefore authorized by the

into agreements to cooperate with each other in a manner which will enable them to
make the most efficient use of their resources and powers.
AGREEMENT:
NOW THEREFORE, in exchange for valuable consideration, including the mutual
covenants contained in this Agreement, the parties covenant and agree as follows:
2
1. Term. The County shall provide election services described below to the
City commencing on the date this Agreement is executed and terminating on December
31, 2021. Either party may cancel this Agreement upon thirty (30) days written notice to
the other party. Upon such cancellation, each party shall retain ownership of any
property it owned prior to the date of this Agreement, and the City shall own any
property it created or acquired pursuant to this Agreement.
2. Scope of Work. The services to be provided by the County shall be as set
forth in the Scope of Work, attached hereto and incorporated by reference as Exhibit
“A.” Generally, the County shall perform the listed election functions as set forth in
Exhibit “A” and as needed to ensure implementation of the City’s 2021 primary and
general municipal elections.
3. Legal Requirements.
a. The County and the City understand and agree that the 2021 City
primary and general municipal elections are the City’s elections. The City shall be
responsible for compliance with all legal requirements for these elections. The
City agrees to translate ballot issues, if any, into Spanish. The County will
provide the remaining Spanish translations for the ballot and other election
materials as required by law. The County agrees to work with the City in
complying with all legal requirements for the conduct of these elections and
conduct these elections pursuant to the direction of the City, except as provided
in this Agreement and Exhibit “A.” The County agrees to disclose and maintain
election results through its website merely as a courtesy and convenience to the
City. The City, and not the County, is responsible to resolve any and all election
3
questions, problems, and legal issues that are within the City’s statutory
authority.
b. The County and the City understand and agree that if the County
offers services or resources to conduct an instant runoff voting election, or rank
choice voting, as described in sections 20A-4-603 and -604, UTAH CODE ANN.
(2018), the County will provide the estimated cost of administering such an
election.
c. In accordance with 20A-4-602(3)(a), the City shall provide the Lt.
Governor and the County notice of its intent to use Rank Choice Voting as its
selected method of voting, no later than April 15, 2021.

the City shall be obligated to pay the County. If the City selects a traditional vote

vote recount, election system audit, election contest, or similar event arising out of the
City’s election, the City shall pay the County’s actual costs of responding to such
events, based on a written invoice provided by the County. The invoice amount for
these additional services may cause the total cost to the City to exceed the estimate
4
given to the City by the County. For such consideration, the County shall furnish all
materials, labor and equipment to complete the requirements and conditions of this
Agreement.
5. Governmental Immunity. The City and the County are governmental
entities and subject to the Governmental Immunity Act of Utah, UTAH CODE ANN. §§
63G-7-101 to –904 (2018) (the “Governmental Immunity Act”). Nothing in this
Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of any rights, statutory limitations on liability, or
defenses applicable to the City or the County under the Governmental Immunity Act or
common law. Each party shall retain liability and responsibility for the acts and
omissions of their representative officers. In no event shall this Agreement be
construed to establish a partnership, joint venture or other similar relationship between
the parties and nothing contained herein shall authorize either party to act as an agent
for the other. Each of the parties hereto assumes full responsibility for the negligent
operations, acts and omissions of its own employees, agents and contractors. It is not
the intent of the parties to incur by this Agreement any liability for the negligent
operations, acts, or omissions of the other party or its agents, employees, or
contractors.
6. No Obligations to Third Parties. The parties agree that the County’s
obligations under this Agreement are solely to the City. This Agreement shall not
confer any rights to third parties.

indemnify and hold harmless the County, its agents, officers and employees from and
against any and all actions, claims, lawsuits, proceedings, liability, damages, losses and
expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs), arising out of or resulting from the
5
performance of this Agreement to the extent the same are caused by any negligent or
wrongful act, error or omission of the City, its officers, agents and employees and
including but not limited to claims that the County violated any state or federal law in the
provision of election services under this Agreement.
8. Election Records. The City shall maintain and keep control of all records
created pursuant to this Agreement and from the elections relevant to this Agreement.
The City shall respond to all public record requests related to this Agreement and the
underlying elections and shall retain all election records consistent with the Government
Records Access and Management Act, UTAH CODE ANN. §§ 63G-2-101 to -901 (2018),
and all other relevant local, state and federal laws.
9. Service Cancellation. If this Agreement is canceled by the City as
provided above, the City shall pay the County on the basis of the actual services
performed according to the terms of this Agreement. Upon cancellation of this
Agreement by either party, the County shall submit to the City an itemized statement for
services rendered under this Agreement up to the time of cancellation and based upon
the dollar amounts for materials, equipment and services set forth herein.
10. Legal Compliance. The County, as part of the consideration herein, shall
comply with all applicable federal, state and county laws governing elections.

shall be deemed to be an employee, agent or servant of the other party. None of the
benefits provided by either party to its employees including, but not limited to, workers’
compensation insurance, health insurance and unemployment insurance, are available
to the employees, agents, or servants of the other party. The City and the County shall
6
each be solely and entirely responsible for its own acts and for the acts of its own
agents, employees and servants during the performance of this Agreement.

______________________________________________________________________________
TO: Salt Lake City Leadership DATE: March 23, 2021
Mayor Mendenhall and City Council Chair Amy Fowler
FROM: Lauren Shafer, Deputy City Recorder
SUBJECT: UPDATE: Ranked Choice Voting and Participation in the Municipal Alternative Voting
Method Pilot Program
* Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) and the “pilot program” are used interchangeably in this memo;
however, RCV is the method of voting which falls under the pilot program.
IMPORTANT DATES:
• By April 29, 2021: Provide notice to overseas and military voters under the Uniformed and
Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) if a Primary election will be held.
• By April 30, 2021: Publish election notice that identifies: (i) the municipal offices to be voted on
in the municipal general election; and the (ii) dates for filing a declaration of candidacy for the
offices identified.
o Due to Newspaper deadlines and the current calendar year, the publication would need to
be provided to the Salt Lake Tribune by Thursday April 22 (3 pm) or to the Deseret
News by Tuesday, April 27 (4 pm).
• By May 9, 2021: Provide notice to Lt. Governor & County Clerk by resolution indicating
intention to participate in the Pilot Program and assurance the municipality has the resources and
capability to participate.
o Considering the Council meeting schedule, the resolution consideration date (provided
the publishing and notification information provided above) is suggested for April 20 at
the Formal meeting.
• Tuesday, November 2, 2021: Municipal General Election.
o Primary election is optional in the Pilot Program
BACKGROUND:
In February 2021, the Council was briefed on the potential of conducting the 2021 Municipal election as
part of the Municipal Alternative Voting Pilot Program otherwise known as Ranked Choice Voting. This
memorandum is for the follow-up briefing addressing the impact of state legislation and upcoming
deadlines.
At the initial briefing two videos were discussed – please click on these links to view the video contents:
• Post It Note Video
• City of Vineyard Ranked Choice Voting Video (created by the Lieutenant Governor’s Office)
The purpose of the memo is to outline components of the Municipal Election timing impacted by the
determination to participate in the Pilot Program. The determination to participate is crucial to the
Recorder’s office providing clear timelines and community outreach efforts. Providing an informal
response to this question, allows the Recorder’s office to return with the Interlocal Agreement outlining
costs, to prepare a draft resolution to notify the office of the Lt. Governor and the County Clerk formally
of the determination, and to begin outreach material creation and strategy.
Upon the determination of the election method, the timeline to declare candidacy is defined. Currently
individuals are opening campaign finance committees but do not declare candidacy officially until the
election method is determined.
BUDGET:
The Recorder’s Office received a draft Interlocal Agreement from Salt Lake County Elections with the
following costs:
• $119,108 – Traditional Voting Method with a Primary and General Election
• $120,218 – Ranked Choice Voting Method with a Primary and General Election*
• $72,387 – Ranked Choice Voting Method without a Primary *
*Ranked Choice Voting methods may go over the estimate based the participation of other
municipalities, not exceeding $10,000.
Prior to receiving the estimates from the County, the Recorder’s office had requested $275,000 in the
budget proposed to the Mayor.
If opting into the Pilot Program, the determination to hold a Primary Election involves various
considerations including:
• Voters and Candidates expectations of a Primary Election
• Potentially fewer candidates to rank on the November General Election ballot
• Voters may experience Ranked Choice Voting prior to the General Election
• Holding a Primary Elections contributes to overall costs, limiting educational outreach funds
• Timing to educate voters about Ranked Choice Voting is decreased
• Potential candidates would be afforded additional time to collect signatures (if desired) prior to
the Declaration of Candidacy period
• Impact of the timing on the COVID-19 vaccination efforts, potential in-person voting and
campaigning efforts
COMMUNITY OUTREACH:
If selected as the chosen method, the Ranked Choice Voting method will require additional community
outreach to ensure voters have been provided the opportunity to practice and understand how Ranked
Choice Voting works. Voter education plays a large role in elections and it has been noted that candidates
are the initial educator in their conversations with the public. Building upon the 2015 Vote by Mail
campaign efforts, outlined below are some of the anticipated community outreach efforts through funding
joined with the State or from fiscal savings if the Primary election is not held.
Stages of Preparation (all being evaluated for multiple languages and alternative communication methods)
• Candidates
o Use of informational material within the Candidate Guide
o Listed in the Candidate Guide, scheduled open conversation/practice opportunities
conducted by the Recorder’s office
• Promotional Asset Development used and distributed through:
o Social Media Campaign efforts
o Website – multiple locations throughout the City
o Ranked Choice Voting Instructional video development
o Citywide Mailing (postcards)
o Newspaper publishing notices
o Outside organization distribution (including recognized community organizations,
religious groups, community & senior centers, individual schools and districts, libraries,
large employers, business associations
o Pins, banners, promotional materials
o Multiple press released, interviews, email updates
o Paid promotional spots on radio, social media and digital advertising
• SLCTV/Media Services Outreach in multiple languages
o Capitol City News segments
o Ask Me Anything (AMA) Events
The Lieutenant Governor’s Office has roughly $200,000 available for outreach and public education on
Ranked Choice Voting. However, until it is known how many cities will opt into the Pilot Program, the
funding and education cannot be outlined. As of March 22, 2021, cities opting into the Pilot Program
include: Draper, Lehi, Payson, Riverton, Springville, Vineyard, and Heber City.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY
TO:City Council Members
FROM:Sam Owen, Policy Analyst
DATE:April 6, 2021
RE:Salt Lake City Code 12.58 Idling of Vehicles
ISSUE AT-A-GLANCE
The Council previously adopted an “idle free ordinance” via city code 12.58, “Idling of Vehicles.” The
ordinance enables the city to levy a civil penalty against persons idling vehicles in ways prohibited by
the ordinance, after three violations. For the first three violations, State law had previously inhibited
the City’s levying civil penalties on the grounds of idling.
In 2019, the Utah State Legislature amended law in a way that allows the City to assess penalties for
violation of idling-related ordinance after just one warning, rather than the previously-required three
warnings. This proposed amendment would bring City code into alignment with those statutory
changes, and makes other changes that the Administration indicates are a function of clean-up and
housekeeping.
ATTACHMENTS
1. Administration transmittal
POLICY QUESTIONS
1. Under proposed amendments to City code 12.58.030 (B), specifications in the ordinance about
when vehicles are allowed to idle under certain temperature conditions are removed. Council
Members might wish to inquire whether the provision in this section to allow vehicles to idle
“for the health or for the safety of a driver or passenger” are more or less restrictive than the
specifications that had previously been in the ordinance.
a. Furthermore, the proposed amendments remove the provision that allows vehicles to
idle for purposes of defrosting or other mechanisms related to visibility; the proposed
Item Schedule:
Briefing: April 6, 2021
Public Hearing: n/a
Potential Action: TBD
Page | 2
amendments also remove provisions that allow idling for purposes of recharging
batteries and lifting equipment. Council Members may wish to inquire whether the
amended language still provides for allowance of idling for these purposes, or whether a
policy change is being proposed whereby these or other functions would not be
preserved under the amendment.
2.Does the Administration anticipate differential impacts for persons of diverse socioeconomic or
other backgrounds?
a. For example, could persons with less access to well-functioning vehicles for
socioeconomic or other reasons be impacted disproportionately by the change from
three warnings before fines to one warning before fines, and would the Administration
have a proposal for mitigation of these potential impacts?
3.What impacts are anticipated when it comes to changes in City revenue potentially resulting
from the proposed amendments,
a. Is there information available on how many citations have been issued in relation to the
existing ordinance,
b. Would the proposed changes result in any modification to the existing fine schedule for
infractions of the existing idling requirements and
c. Does the Administration anticipate additional capacity needed for enforcement as a
result of the potential changes?
4.Council Members have expressed interest in refining other enforcement mechanisms related to
vehicle non-compliance with, for example, noise emission regulations. Council Members may
wish to explore whether there is a potential to leverage efficiencies between enforcement
capacity needed for these proposed changes, as well as other capacity that might be useful for
enforcement revisions sought after by some Council Members and constituents.

Ordinance
Adopt the ordinance amending a Section of the Salt Lake City
Code related to idling (Exhibit A)
BUDGET IMPACT: Minimal, fewer warnings issued prior to a citation
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Background
In October 2011, Salt Lake City Council adopted Salt Lake City Code 12.58 Idling of Vehicles.
Subsequently, during the 2012 State legislative session, the Utah State Legislature adopted
House Bill 104 which authorized adoption of idling restrictions by local jurisdictions, but was
subject to certain conditions. In April 2012, Salt Lake City adopted amendments to the Idling of
Vehicles ordinance to comply with newly adopted State law.
During the 2019 State legislative session, House Bill 148 was adopted to amend provisions
allowing local authority to enforce idling restrictions after one warning instead of three1. The
proposed amendment to section 12.58.040 “Penalties” is updated to allow a civil fine to be
issued after one warning.
Salt Lake City was the second city in Utah to adopt an ordinance restricting idling, after Park
City. Currently nine other cities in Utah have idle free ordinances. Proposed amendments to
1 Utah State Legislature, 2019 General Session, H.B. 148 Vehicle Idling Revisions
Lisa Shaffer (Feb 23, 2021 15:54 MST)
02/23/2021
02/23/2021
section 12.58.030 include updated language related to the exceptions of the idling restriction,
reflecting common language used in most city ordinances without changing intent of the
exceptions or scenarios to which they would apply, such as during extreme temperatures,
operation of equipment in emergency and law enforcement vehicles, or stopped for traffic
control devices.
Further, the proposed amendment includes the following updates that may be considered
“housekeeping” items, including:
• Idling listed as a civil violation in section 12.56.550 “Unauthorized Use of Streets,
Parking Lots, and Other Areas”, which includes procedures for issuing civil violations
and assessing late fees.
• Adding a cross-reference to Chapter 12.58 “Idling of Vehicles” in the list of Civil
Violations in Chapter 12.12.015.
The fine for an idling citation is the same as an expired parking meter which currently starts at
$23 and increases by 25% if not paid within 30 days. State code requires local ordinance to have
“the same fine structure as a parking violation”.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY
TO:City Council Members
FROM:Sam Owen, Policy Analyst
DATE:April 13, 2021
RE:Resolution: Recycling Market Development Zone
ISSUE AT-A-GLANCE
Since 2010, Salt Lake City has participated in Utah’s Recycling Market Development Zone (RMDZ) program,
enabled through a 1996 act of the State Legislature. The City Council is asked to pass a resolution like the one in
the subject transmittal every five years for the City to continue participating.
The program allows businesses located in the City’s designated RMDZ to potentially obtain state tax benefits
(see background information section below). The City also provides “local contributions” pursuant to
requirements in the statute. The program is intended to incentivize and reward recycling-related activities on a
commercial or industrial scale. For this reason, Salt Lake City’s RMDZ is coextensive with the M1 and M2
manufacturing zoning areas, where that zoning occurs either north of 600 North, or west of I-215.
POLICY QUESTIONS
1.Are the City-offered benefits that are part of this program sufficient to incentivize the type of business
activity desired through the RMDZ program? These benefits currently include access to the City’s
development review resources, other business development assistance and access to the City’s
Economic Development Loan Fund.
2.Is there harm or inconvenience brought to the City’s westside residents and businesses as a result of
incentivizing these businesses to locate in the M1 and M2 manufacturing areas west of I-216 and north
of 600 North; in other words, would the businesses locate other places in the City and reduce the
concentration of these larger-scale industrial operations if this incentive were not provided. Broadly, is
there a quality of life impact to westside residents as a result of this program?
3.Is there community engagement or outreach conducted in regard to accessing this program? The
transmittal indicates that negative community feedback has been minimal since the inception of the
program. Is there positive or promotional activity that would usefully enhance knowledge about or
access to this program?

ADDITIONAL AND BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Businesses that engage in larger-scale commercial recycling or composting activity are eligible to locate in a
Utah RMDZ and obtain tax credits related to their business activities. A City can attract these commercial
enterprises by creating an RMDZ and offering competitive services to entities seeking to locate in the RMDZ.
Furthermore, businesses already located, for example, within Salt Lake City’s M1 or M2 zones that engage in this
type of eligible activity might be able to further expand their operations with the benefit of the tax credits.
Businesses locating in a Utah RMDZ are provided potential access to the following State tax benefits (Utah DEQ
website):
1. 5% Utah non-refundable tax credit on the purchase price of machinery and equipment used directly in
commercial composting; or manufacturing facilities or plant units that manufacture, process,
compound, or produce recycled items of tangible personal property for sale, or reduce or reuse post-
consumer waste material; and
2. 20% Utah state income tax credit (up to $2,000) on eligible operating expenses, including payments
made to third parties for rent, wages, supplies, tools, test inventory, and utilities, for establishing and
operating recycling or composting technology in Utah.
In keeping with the statutory requirements and as noted in the policy questions section, Salt Lake City provides
the following support for businesses locating in its RMDZ (Administration’s transmittal):
- Development Project Coordination
The City will provide development assistance through its Development Review Team
(DRT). The DRT assists developers by providing input in the early stages of a project to
identify potential problems and to facilitate the project’s formal review.
- Business Development Assistance
Salt Lake City’s Economic Development Department and its Business Development team
are dedicated to supporting new and established enterprises with loan funding, workforce
development opportunities, and streamlined access to City business licensing and
permitting processes. The Business Development team, which conducts onsite meetings
with up to 300 businesses annually, actively promotes the City’s RMDZ among its suite of
business incentives.
- Salt Lake City’s Economic Development Loan Fund (EDLF)
The EDLF’s purpose is to stimulate business development and expansion, create
employment opportunities, and encourage private investment. The program’s overarching
goal is to invest in viable businesses that produce strong economic returns and also
provide positive social and environmental impacts. Startup businesses are eligible to apply
for loans of up to $100,000 and existing business are eligible for loans of up to $350,000.
Additionally, businesses are also eligible to apply for microloans of $25,000 or less.

DOCUMENT TYPE: Resolution
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a resolution approving Salt Lake City’s amended application to the State
of Utah’s Recycling Market Development Zone program, which will allow businesses to participate in the
City’s Program.
BUDGET IMPACT: No funding required
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The Recycling Market Development Zone Program is a state-sponsored program that assists qualifying
businesses that collect, process, distribute or use recycled materials in their manufacturing operations, or
compost by providing State income tax credits to such qualifying businesses . Local government entities
must apply to participate in the State’s program every five years so that qualifying businesses within their
jurisdictions may access the tax credits. The City’s application must include documentation of Council’s
written approval for the City to apply (or renew its application) to participate in the program.
In 2010 the City Council and Mayor signed Joint Resolution 53 of 2010 approving the City’s first
application to the Program, which was approved by the State in December 2010. Jurisdictions are
required to reapply every five years to continue participation in the program, so Council adopted
resolution 43 of 2015 to renew the City’s application, which was approved by the State in December 2015.
The City is not proposing any changes to its program in this 2021 application. The City’s application limits
its Program to businesses located within M-1 and M-2 zones. The City’s Program applies an overlay zone
and does not alter what is currently allowed by zoning regulations.

Since 2010, four businesses have expanded or relocated within the City’s Recycling Market Development
Zone: Momentum Recycling, Spring Back Utah Mattress Recycling, Metech Recycling, and Advanced
Technology Recycling.
PUBLIC PROCESS
Prior to the initial application in 2010, a thorough public process was conducted focused on the
communities adjacent to the area defined in the City’s program. Since the passage of the program, there
has not been any notable opposition to the program and participation by businesses remains steady.
NEXT STEPS
The Sustainability Department will submit the 2021 renewal application to the State if Council adopts the
resolution approving the City’s renewal application. Council’s resolution would need to be included in the
renewal application packet. The City’s program will be effective for the 2021 tax year if the state is able to
approve the City’s application in 2021.

with up to 300 businesses annually, actively promotes the City’s RMDZ among its suite of
business incentives.
Salt Lake City’s Economic Development Loan Fund (EDLF)
The EDLF’s purpose is to stimulate business development and expansion, create
employment opportunities, and encourage private investment. The program’s overarching
goal is to invest in viable businesses that produce strong economic returns and also
provide positive social and environmental impacts. Startup businesses are eligible to apply
for loans of up to $100,000 and existing business are eligible for loans of up to $350,000.
Additionally, businesses are also eligible to apply for microloans of $25,000 or less.
3. How does your county or municipality provide for postconsumer waste collection
for recycling within the county or municipality?
Salt Lake City’s Waste & Recycling Division provides four separate curbside collection
services for approximately 42,000 residential properties: weekly curbside recycling,
compost, garbage, and an annual bulk item collection through the Call 2 Haul program.
The Waste & Recycling Division also provides annual holiday tree collection, a subscription
curbside glass recycling service, and recycling drop-off sites for glass. A total of 39% of the
residential waste stream was diverted from the landfill through recycling and composting in
2020. The Operations program also provides waste and recycling services for City parks
and facilities, and curbside recycling for qualified small businesses and multi-family
properties.
Additionally, the City’s Recycling Education and Permits program provides education and
outreach to the residents and employees of the city, and oversees implementation of the
recycling requirements for the business, multifamily, construction, and special event
communities in order to achieve the City’s ambitious waste diversion goals.
4. Identify and outline the following:
a. The specific investment or development reasonably expected to take place:
Some of the businesses already established that receive the RMDZ designation could
expand their operations due to the savings they derive (as long as they comply with the
requirements of the underlying land use zoning district).
b. Any commitments obtained from businesses to participate, and in what
capacities regarding recycling markets:
Businesses that have participated in the Recycle Market Development Zone Program in
Salt Lake City in the past include:
• ArborCare/Arborscape: Accepts wood waste and manufactures wood pellet fuel and
wood pellet animal bedding.
• Momentum Recycling: Collects mixed recyclables from businesses, electronic waste,
batteries and CFL lightbulbs. Collects and processes glass for recycling. The Recycle
Market Development Zone program was instrumental in Momentum Recycling’s ability
to expand from a recycling collection company, to a large processor of recovered glass
that currently serves the intermountain west.
• Liberty Tire Recycling: Accepts tires of all sizes and manufactures crumb rubber for
use in athletic fields and running tracks, recovers and recycles steel from tires.
• Varex Imaging : Manufactures x-ray tube and imaging products. Accepts end of useful
life x-ray tubes and the containers they are shipped in. In 2019, Varex accepted 9,437
X-Ray tubes for recycling in their processes.
• Pallet Express/Streadbeck Enterprises: Accepts and recycles pallets, clean wood
waste, cardboard and steel. Manufactures pallet components, colored landscape
mulches, animal and plant bedding, and pellet stock.
• Metro Group, Inc: Accepts and recycles scrap metal.
• Western Metals Recycling: Accepts and recycles scrap metal.
• Spring Back Utah Mattress Recycling: Established in 2014, accepts, deconstructs, and
recycles mattress and box spring components. Prior to their establishment in Salt Lake
City, we had not had a local mattress recycler in Utah.
c. List the names of any economic development plans that will be maintained on
file with the local recycling zone coordinator as part of this application that
demonstrate coordination between the recycling zone and overall development
goals:
Salt Lake City’s current Strategic Economic Development Plan prioritizes developing and
maintaining a suite of incentives that enhance new business development and retention,
as well as outlining a robust and active recruitment campaign to attract new businesses to
the City. The RMDZ has been and will continue to be valuable incentive asset in Salt Lake
City, where it is prominently featured among other incentives and policies in official City
publications and websites, and is actively promoted by the City’s Business Development
team.
Salt Lake City’s Climate Positive 2040 sustainability plan addresses the City’s Zero Waste
goal by specifically calling for continued improvement of “local recycling infrastructure and
markets through strategic partnerships,” as well as working with state partners on
continued recycling market development opportunities. The RMDZ serves as a
foundational partnership program with the State and Salt Lake City in achieving these
recycling market and infrastructure development goals.
Within the City’s Sustainability Department, the E2 Business program works to engage
existing Salt Lake City businesses in sustainable best practices, including business waste
diversion and recycling. E2 Business program staff refer participating RMDZ businesses as
opportunity paths for other Salt Lake City businesses seeking to divert their waste streams
to recycled markets. Additionally, some RMDZ businesses are longtime members of the
City’s E2 Business program, where they are promoted as models for future sustainably-
minded businesses that Salt Lake City is seeking to attract.
d. Demonstrate that sufficient portions of the proposed zone area are zoned
as appropriate for the development of commercial, industrial, or
manufacturing businesses.
The proposed geographic area for the RMDZ requires an interested business to be located
in M-1 or M-2 zoning districts, as these zoning classifications allow recycling activities. The
business must also be located either west of I-215 or north of 600 North which creates a
buffer between any residential or commercial zones and the highest concentration of
manufacturing or recycling businesses.
Economic development is best achieved if all companies abide by existing zoning, hence
all benefits from the State and the City would be contingent on company compliance with
current zoning regulations.
e. Outline the county's or municipality's long-term waste management plan
and evidence that the zone will be adequately served by the plan.
In 2011, a joint resolution was signed by the City Council and the Mayor of Salt Lake City
adopting waste reduction and diversion goals for Salt Lake City. The City adopted Zero
Waste as a guiding principle for all City operations and the community. Goals were
adopted to reach a 70% diversion by 2025 and eliminate waste by 2040. Salt Lake City
currently diverts 39% of residential waste through recycling or composting.
In 2016, Salt Lake City adopted a business and multifamily recycling ordinance (chapter
9.08.2), requiring businesses and multifamily properties that produce over 4 cubic yards of
waste per week to have a recycling program in place.
Salt Lake City’s Solid Waste and Recyclable Items ordinance (chapter 9.08.095) also
dictates that recyclable items are not permitted to be placed in residential refuse containers
and is enforceable as a civil violation.
Strategic targets to meet waste diversion goals are further outlined in the City’s Climate
Positive 2040 plan, and include:
• Improving price incentives to reduce waste and increase recycling;
• Engaging residents and businesses in waste reduction and recycling;
• Reducing contamination of recyclables and compost by enforcing refuse code;
• Increasing participation in glass recycling;
• Developing capacity for composting or recovering energy from food scraps
f. Outline the county’s or municipalities postconsumer waste collection infrastructure:
Curbside Recycling
Salt Lake City has offered curbside collection of recyclables from residential homes since
1993. Participation in residential curbside recycling is mandatory. Recyclables are
collected from a 90-gallon blue container, provided for the residents by the City, each
week. Acceptable materials include: newspaper, magazines, corrugated cardboard, phone
books, junk mail, paperboard, office paper, notebook paper, paper bags, plastic containers,
aluminum beverage containers, and steel food cans.
Yard Waste Recycling
Salt Lake City introduced weekly yard waste collection service in March 2008. Participation
in residential yard waste recycling is mandatory.
Compostable material is collected from a 90-gallon brown container, provided for the
residents by the City, each week. Acceptable materials include all yard waste, tea bags
and coffee grounds, egg shells, and clean fruit and vegetable waste. Material is composted
at the Salt Lake Valley Solid Waste Management Facility.
Bulky Waste Recycling
Salt Lake City’s Call 2 Haul program provides annual, scheduled collection of household
bulky waste products for City residents. In 2020, the City collected and diverted 1,764 tons
of material, including 216 tons of mattresses, electronics, appliances, tires and metal.
Recyclers that have located in Salt Lake City and participate in the RMDZ are vendors Salt
Lake City frequently uses to recycle these materials.
Compostable material is processed at the Salt Lake Valley Solid Waste Management
Facility.
Salt Lake City also recycles green waste from the internal park maintenance program and
golf course maintenance. Grass is mulched, and all other bulky green waste is taken to the
compost facility.
Glass Recycling
Salt Lake City provides twenty drop off sites for glass recycling, and offers a voluntary
curbside recycling program for glass, diverting over 1,604 tons of glass from the landfill in
2020.
Construction and Demolition Waste Recycling
Salt Lake City requires construction and demolition waste recycling on major projects
permitted by the City.
Special Event Waste Recycling
Salt Lake City requires recycling amenities at all special events on city-owned property and
permitted by the City.
5. Outline the county’s or municipality’s proposed means of assessing the effectiveness of
the development plan or other programs implemented within the zone:
Each business will be required to track and make available upon request a report to Salt
Lake City documenting the amount of material being recycled by each businesses and
amount of material being used for manufacturing.
The number of businesses with the RMDZ designation will also be an indicator of its
effectiveness. Our goal will be for this number to increase over time.
6. State whether within the zone either of the following will be established:
a. commercial composting
b. commercial manufacturing that will produce end products that consist of not less
than 50% recovered materials, of which not less than 25% is post-consumer waste
material
Several businesses currently exist within Salt Lake City’s proposed zone that produce end
products that consist of at least 50% recovered materials, and 25% postconsumer waste
material. As described in the answer to Question 4.d, above, the proposed areas are
zoned as appropriate for the development of commercial, industrial, or manufacturing
businesses. Salt Lake City has established goals supporting economic development and
sustainability. Salt Lake City strives to increase the number of environmentally conscious
companies within City boundaries and to incentivize businesses to move towards
sustainable operations. Several businesses have either been established or relocated to
Salt Lake City’s zone with the assistance of RMDZ benefits.
7. Include any additional information the county or municipality considers relevant to
its designation as a recycling market development zone.
Salt Lake City has a broad and ambitious sustainability agenda, detailed in the Climate
Positive 2040 Plan, which establishes the City’s commitment to protect resources, reduce
pollution, slow climate change, and ensure greater resiliency and vitality for every aspect of
our community. Maintaining a recycling market development zone within Salt Lake City
will continue to be a valuable incentive we can offer for businesses looking to start up, or
invest in growth and sustainably, and contribute to highest and best use of locally
generated waste materials.
8. Attach the written approval from the municipality or county's legislative body of the
recycling market development zone.
Questions about the application process for Recycling Market Development Zone
designation should be directed to Robert Windell, at rwindell@utah.gov or call 801-536-
0211.

CITY COUNCIL TRANSMITTAL
_______________________ Date Received: ___________
Lisa Shaffer, Chief Administrative Officer Date Sent to Council: ___________
TO: Salt Lake City Council DATE: February 25, 2021
Amy Fowler, Chair
FROM: Lisa Shaffer, Chief Administrative Officer, Mayor’s Office
_____________
SUBJECT: Amendment of Appendix B (“Appointed Employees by Department”) of the
FY 2021 Annual Compensation Plan for Non-Represented Employees of
Salt Lake City Corporation
STAFF CONTACTS: Lisa Shaffer, Chief Administrative Officer, Mayor’s Office
Debra Alexander, Chief Human Resources Officer, Human Resources
David Salazar, Compensation Program Manager, Human Resources
DOCUMENT TYPE: Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION:
The City Council, in Salt Lake City Ordinance No. 27 of 2020, approved the FY 2021 Annual
Compensation Plan for Non-Represented Employees of Salt Lake City Corporation. However, in
order to meet the operational needs of Salt Lake City Corporation, the Mayor’s Office
recommends that the City Council adopt the attached ordinance amending Appendix B
(“Appointed Employees by Department”) of the FY 2021 Annual Compensation Plan for Non-
Represented Employees of Salt Lake City Corporation to add six new appointed positions,
modify the job title and increase the pay grade of one existing appointed position, and increase
the pay grades associated with three other existing appointed positions.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Among the new appointed job titles noted in Section 2 of the proposed ordinance, all are
associated with existing positions, approved and allocated in the City budget for FY21. The same
is true for the titles specified for modification in Section 3.
It should be noted, however, the Census Coordinator (Mayor’s Office), which was funded
through the end of FY21, is being repurposed as a Community Outreach/Equity and Special
Projects Coordinator. As a result, this position will require approximately the same level of
funding for continuation into the 2021-22 budget year.
Lisa Shaffer (Feb 26, 2021 10:04 MST)
02/26/2021
02/26/2021
Any additional costs associated with implementation of these title changes are funded and
covered within existing department FY21 budgets. Although there is no budgetary impact in
FY21, additional funding may be required when developing the FY21-22 city budget.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
As is customary, the Appointed Pay Plan is updated every year during the regular budget season.
However, particularly in light of ongoing restructuring and rebuilding necessary across the
City, departments are working to create better solutions to achieve evolving business objectives,
which sometimes includes creation or modification of new and/or existing appointed roles.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY
TO:City Council Members
FROM: Ben Luedtke and Sylvia Richards
Budget and Policy Analysts
DATE:April 20, 2021
RE: Budget Amendment Number Eight FY2021
________________________________________________________________________________
Budget Amendment Number Eight is a small amendment with no revenue impact and proposed expenses of $2 million.
The amendment includes two proposals from the Police Department to access funds set aside in the Non Departmental
budget during the FY21 annual budget process. The third item is a request to provide a grant using General Fund and
Funding Our Future fund balances to assist in the purchase of the Airport Inn. This amendment also includes one
potential Council-added item which would impact the General Fund in the amount of $50,000.
If this budget amendment is approved as requested by the Administration, with the inclusion of the Council-added item,
then the amount available in Fund Balance above the 13% minimum target would be $7.2 million. There are a total of
three items in Section A. The Administration has requested that this amendment be expedited.
Revenues Update
The Administration has provided the following information regarding City revenues: “The City is currently projecting a
$1.9 million decrease in budgeted revenue (as compared to the $4.4 million decrease projected in revenue for Budget
Amendment No. Seven). The largest portion of the decrease is attributed to a $1.7 million decrease in Fines and
Forfeitures, a $1.7 million decrease in Parking Meter Revenues and a $978 thousand decrease in Miscellaneous
Revenues. These decreases are offset by a projected net increase of $1.4 million in Licenses and Permits as well as a
$1.1 million increase in Sales Tax and a $750 thousand increase in sales tax attributable to Funding Our Future
revenues.
The increase in Licenses and Permits is in spite of airport parking/license tax showing a decrease due to decreased
travel as a result of COVID. The decrease in airport parking and licenses is $2,045,000. Innkeepers tax has also been hit
hard by COVID and is projecting a decrease of $1,717,500. According to recent news reports, hotels are experiencing
30% occupancy compared to this time of year in previous years. Business licenses are also expected to be below budget
due to trends for apartment units, new business license requests and business license renewal .
Project Timeline:
Set Date: April 20, 2021
1st Briefing: April 20, 2021
2nd Briefing (if needed): May 4, 2021
Public Hearing: May 4, 2021
Potential Action: May 18, 2021
Page | 2
These revenue losses are offset by gains in permits & zoning building permits (+$1.1M), plan check fees (+$1.5M), and
street excavation (+$1.96M due to a temporary boost from Google contract). Fines and Forfeitures are projected
below budget due to a decrease in parking ticket revenue of $750k. Justice Court fines are down $185k, while moving
violations are projected wat a loss of $699k. The Justice Court is following the order of the Administrative Office of the
Courts which is resulting in fewer court cases and no orders to pay fines, which are then subsequently not sent to
collections and no warrants are being issued. Traffic school revenue is down $61k and vehicle booting is projected to be
down $19k. Parking Meter Collection is slightly less than half of the previous fiscal year due to an overall decrease in
traffic downtown. This is driving the significant decrease of $1.7 million. Additionally, Miscellaneous Revenue has
also been affected by the pandemic with decreases in accounts receivable collections, special event revenue, fuel
reimbursement due to the Mayor’s emergency declaration and utility reimbursement.

Fund Balance Update
Fund Balance remains above fifteen percent, after projected use of fund balance in the current amendment and the
reduction in projected revenues.

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: Hire Lateral Class of Police Officers – ($314,899 from $2.8 million Holding Account)
The Police Department is requesting budget appropriation from the holding account approved by the Council as
part of the FY 21 annual budget, to hire 12 lateral officers. The Administration indicates this urgent need is to
address a shortage in officers available for call response:
See Attachment 1 for charts visualizing the impact of increased:
- Employee separations, retirements, and resignations
o 36 resignations is more than double the average in recent years
o 8 separations is double the average in recent years
- Leave by type and month, and
o Leave time spiked in September and October, and then again in February
- Calls for service
o The first two months of 2021 are significantly higher than the average in recent years but slightly
below call volume in January and February last year
Traditionally, hiring a lateral class has not been as “recruitment” oriented as a new officer class. Currently, due to
COVID restrictions, the Police Department is relying on social media and referrals to attract a pool of candidates for
the proposed lateral hiring class. The Administration has stated the following: “As the Police Department looks to
utilize lateral hiring in the short term, we will refocus efforts on lateral recruitment and diversity recruitment. This
will include analyzing social media announcements of lateral hiring classes and messages on diversity in the
workforce. We will continue to work with Human Resources and the Racial Equity in Policing (REP) Commission to
identify and implement changes and improvements in recruiting which will provide for a more diverse applicant
pool of officers.”
See Attachment 2 for a spreadsheet provided by the Police Department that projects officer staffing levels in FY22
under two scenarios. The first scenario assumes holding 30 officer FTE positions vacant through next fiscal year
and not hiring a lateral class in FY21. The result is further reductions in staffing levels averaging slightly less than
400 officers. The second scenario assumes a lateral class in FY21 and not holding any police officer FTE positions
vacant in FY22. The result is a slight increase in staffing levels averaging 412 officers.
The current available officers after factoring in accumulated use or lose leave time is 406 officers as of March 26,
2021. As of the same date, the Police Department has a total of 489 officers on staff of a total 569 authorized officer
FTEs of which 66 are Airport Police. It’s important to note that the Department’s staffing is cyclical as employees
retire or leave for other reasons. The total number of hired officers on staff and the number of available officers can
change daily. The assumptions in the projections such as four officer retirements per month could be higher or
lower next fiscal year.
Lateral Class Hiring:
Lateral officers would go through a complete background and interview process.
Lateral officers have the necessary law enforcement certification from Peace Officer Standards and Training
(POST).
SLCPD Training Academy for SLCPD and City specific training (recommendation from the REP
Commission)
Field Training program – One on one training in the field. Provide for second officer on scene to handle
calls for service. During field training, officers will be scheduled to attend a community council meeting in
each district.
The Police Department has been working closely with Human Resources to analyze the departments diversity and
Page | 5
improvements that can be made. In 2020, most of the outreach and recruiting was suspended due to the pandemic
and budget limitations. The table below was prepared by the Administration for the REP Commission along with a
statement that the City’s demographic makeup “during the day fluctuates to include many other people that
commute to work from other cities along the Wasatch Front and we hire most of our people from the same
demographic. The Wasatch Front is the standard we usually compare ourselves to.”
The requested funding is split between $257,311 for personnel costs and $57,533 for supplies. If the Council
approves this request, then the holding account will have a remaining balance of $2,485,101.
See Attachment 3 for a Racial Equity in Policing Core Commissioners letter of support for the proposed lateral class.
The letter identifies implementation of REP Commission recommendations as an important factor for supporting
hiring lateral officers from other law enforcement agencies. Examples of those recommendations include
mandatory CIT training, Salt Lake City neighborhood specific cultural training and changes to questions asked of
candidates in the Police Chief’s interviews.
Policy Questions and Straw Poll Request:
➢Straw Poll – The Administration requested a straw poll if the Council supports this approach. It would
allow early steps in the hiring process to begin sooner such as
➢Funding Source – The Council may wish to discuss with the Administration the proposed use of the $2.8
million holding account for this item. An alternate funding source is general fund balance.
➢Training Changes – The Council may wish to ask the Administration how will training be different for these
new officers compared to past practices? The Council may wish to consider making future police funding
contingent on all officers receiving CIT training and maintaining certification.
➢Response Times and Crime Types – The Council may wish to ask the Administration if data is available
about response times overall and by crime type. Some public comments to the Council Office have claimed
response times have gotten longer during FY21.
A-2: Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) Training for Police Department– ($117,400 from $322,800
Training Holding Account)
The Police Department is requesting budget appropriation from the training holding account to cover CIT training
costs. The Police Department has implemented additional CIT training for all sworn officers. This additional
training is in alignment with the recommendations of the Commission on Racial Equity in Policing. The Police
Department has been proactive and scheduled Certification and Recertification Courses but will need overtime
budget to facilitate the increase in training. The overtime will be utilized to facilitate officers attending training on
overtime or paying overtime to backfill those positions for training as well as overtime for the social workers or
other CIT instructors that teach the classes.
The table below summarizes the status of police officer CIT training as of April 6, 2021. The Police Department
offered additional CIT trainings in February and March. Figures from February show the number of officers fully
certified increased from 110 to 179 in the last two months. If this funding is approved, then the Police Department
anticipates three 10-hour renewal courses would be offered in May for up to 90 officers. Also, a full 40-hour
academy class would be offered in May and another in June for up to 50 officers. Additional courses would be
Page | 6
offered next fiscal year to allow every officer to be fully certified. Council Members have previously acknowledged
that the SLCPD's form of CIT training is not identical to some other CIT models.
The Police Department is requiring CIT certification for all officers. The overtime is voluntary and available to
officers that are unable to attend while on duty. Additional funding for voluntary overtime is expected to increase
the pace of officers becoming fully certified, or to account for potential Council budget contingencies relating to CIT
training.
Note these figures are as of April 6, 2021
The Police Department has its own CIT instructors which includes three officers and one sergeant. All staff in the
social worker program also participate in CIT trainings. Sometimes METRO CIT also provides a social worker and
detectives from West Valley City to assist. It’s important to note that the CIT instructors are also the officers that co-
respond with social workers.
If the Council approves this request, then the training holding account will have a remaining balance of $205,400.
Policy Questions:
➢All Officers Certified Timing – The Council may wish to ask the Administration when every officer will be
able to attain full CIT certification. The Council may also wish to ask the Administration if new officers will
receive CIT certification as part of initial academy training or Field Training Officer (FTO).
➢# of CIT Instructors – The Council may wish to ask the Administration how the current staffing levels of
CIT instructors impacts the Police Department’s ability to offer CIT trainings and ability to offer the co-
responder model where officers and social workers jointly deploy to a call for service.
A-3: Donation to Switchpoint to Create Shelter for Low-Income Seniors and Veterans –
($2,000,000 Total: One million each from General Fund’s Fund Balance and Funding Our Future’s
Fund Balance)
See Attachment 4 for Switchpoint’s original proposal to purchase the Airport Inn
The Administration is proposing issuing a donation of $2,000,000 to a coalition headed by Switchpoint to assist in
their purchase of the winter overflow shelter (Airport Inn at 2333 West North Temple). Switchpoint, is proposing to
purchase the property for extremely low-income seniors and veterans. The public benefit analysis usually required
for the City to donate funds or assets to a non-profit is satisfied by the budget amendment public hearing scheduled
for May 4.
Switchpoint indicates the project will provide 100 housing units, with at least 25% reserved for veterans. The
monthly rent will be $415/unit. In addition to housing, Switchpoint will provide access to on site integrated
treatment services for physical and behavioral health. The total cost of purchasing and refurbishing the housing
units and common areas will be about $80,000 per unit, significantly below the new construction costs of about
$200,000 per unit. Ongoing operating costs of the project, including professional support for needed services will
be fully supported by the rent paid by our residents. Total cost is $8,500,000 including $6,500,000 to purchase,
plus $2,000,000 to renovate. To date, Switchpoint has secured $1.75 million, and is working to secure additional
funding from private donors and other entities. If the Council approves the request, the purchase/renovation
funding gap would be $4.75 million.
The proposed shelter would not be permanent supportive housing but rather transitional, extended hotel stays. This
is different than single-room occupancy (SRO) or shared group living housing. The property is located within

Airport Influence Zone A where residential uses are prohibited. Hotel uses are permitted in this zone if sound
mitigation measures are taken (such as thicker windows). As a result, rental agreements are limited to 30 days,
kitchen facilities may not be provided inside each room and on-site services may not be intensive.
Switchpoint is currently in discussions with additional donors and Salt Lake County for further funding. If the
project can secure full funding, then renovations are estimated to take three months.
Policy Questions:
➢Purchasing Other Properties to Create Housing – The Council may wish to ask the Administration if using
these funds to purchase other properties in the City to create low-income housing was or could be
evaluated. Some Council Members expressed interest in purchasing blighted and/or nuisance properties
and redeveloping them into affordable housing.
➢Coordination with Other Veterans Housing – The Council may wish to ask the Administration how the 25
units reserved for veterans will be coordinated with other veteran dedicated housing nearby such as Valor
House, Freedom Landing and others.
Additional questions sent by staff:
The following questions were sent to the Administration and responses were forthcoming at the time of publishing
this staff report:
Is it correct that Switchpoint will own and operate the property? Are there other entities that would have an
ownership stake or be involved in ongoing operations?
Has the Administration (and/or Switchpoint) evaluated using these funds to purchase other properties in
the City to create housing dedicated to low-income seniors and veterans? Will using these funds reduce the
possibility of the City having adequate resources to purchase other properties that may serve this purpose?
How will affordability to low-income seniors and veterans be ensured over the long-term? Are there legal
steps Switchpoint plans to make, or that the City could require as a condition of the donation, to ensure
affordability over coming decades?
If Switchpoint is unable to secure full funding by the end of FY21, then would the $2 million drop to fund
balance and no longer be available for the redevelopment?

Section I: Council Added Items
I-1: (Tentative) Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) Public Awareness and Education Campaign
($100,000; $50,000 from Fund Balance)|
This item is a placeholder in case the Council decides to approve using a ranked choice voting method for the 2021
municipal election. $50,000 of funding would come from the General Fund’s Fund Balance. A budget for another
$50,000 would be created to accept funds from external sources such as the Lieutenant Governor’s Office.
The Council is scheduled on April 20 at the formal meeting to consider a resolution approving the use of RCV for
the 2021 municipal election.

Re: Support for Salt Lake City Police Department hiring
Dear Members of the City Council,
We write to you as the six “core commissioners” of the Salt Lake City Commission on Racial Equity
in Policing. Thank you for entrusting us with this critical role of examining the policy, budget, and
culture of the Salt Lake City Police Department.
We believe that it is part of our role to support Police Department initiatives that increase community
safety and officer training. As such, we write in support of City administration’s request in Budget
Amendment No. 8 for two police-related items. Both of these items provide an opportunity to enact
some of the Racial Equity in Policing Commission’s recommendations to the City:
•Funding to hire a lateral class of 12 police officers to replace officers lost through
retirements and resignations. As we discussed, this hiring will provide an opportunity to
introduce our recommendation that officers receive neighborhood-specific cultural training.
We also appreciate Chief Brown’s suggestion that we provide specific questions we would
like him to ask in the Chief’s interviews of candidates. If the Council approves this request,
we look forward to following up on these specific parameters of the hiring.
•Funding to complete Crisis Intervention Training for the department. It is essential that
officers receive CIT not only during their initial academy training, but on an ongoing,
annual basis. Dealing with people in crisis is an everyday occurrence for police officers, and
they must have the support to best handle the situation and prevent further harm to all
involved, including themselves.
Both of these initiatives will improve community safety and wellbeing. We support these requests
and respectfully urge you to support them as well.
Thank you for your service,
Rev. France Davis

Airport Inn Purchase Proposal
2333 W North Temple
Salt Lake City, UT 84116
Summary: An unusual combination of real estate market dynamics and federal stimulus
money has provided a unique opportunity to create a safe and welcoming environment for
seniors and veterans in Salt Lake City. We propose to purchase and refurbish the Airport Inn as
a Vertical Tiny Home neighborhood, creating a community within the larger Salt Lake City
community. This project will still be operated as a hotel/motel for zoning requirements.
The community will provide 100 units of housing for seniors and veterans on extremely
low incomes. At least 25% of the units will be reserved for veterans. Monthly rent will be $415
per unit. In addition to housing, we will provide on site access to integrated treatment services
for physical and behavioral health. We will also provide veterans health services through a
collaborative relationship already in place with Brighton Health Care a subsidiary of Avalon
Health.
The total cost of purchasing and refurbishing the housing units and common areas will
be about $80,000 per unit, significantly below the new construction costs of about $200,000 per
unit. Ongoing operating costs of the project, including professional support for needed services
will be fully supported by the rent paid by our residents.
Request: To purchase and refurbish the Airport Inn as 100 units of housing for senior citizens
55 years old or older, and veterans, on extremely low fixed incomes.
Cost: $8,500,000 - $6,500,000 to purchase, plus $2,000,000 to renovate. To date- Dell Loy
Hansen Family Foundation has committed $1,500,000- Episcopal Church $250,000 and we are
waiting for confirmation on another $500,000 from a donor. Salt Lake County has also been
notified that this project needs funding and we are awaiting an answer from Mike Gallegos on
the amount.
Advance Planning: We have already met with leaders from the City of Salt Lake and received
approval to move forward. We have worked with attorneys regarding zoning and the airport
overlay. It was determined that if there is no change to the services provided, no changes in
zoning are needed at this time. The leases offered will be on a month-to-month basis as
extended stay hotel.
We have already collaborated with the Division of Mental Health and Veteran Health Services
to provide support services through the Airport facility.
Results: We will get the most vulnerable population (as observed in the temporary winter
shelters) into affordable housing with wrap around services to provide a healthy, safe,
community environment.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Revenue for FY 2020-21 Budget Adjustments
The Fiscal Year 2021 projections are coming in below budgeted revenues. The following chart
shows a current projection of General Fund Revenue for fiscal year 2021.
The City is currently projecting a $1.9 million decrease in budgeted revenue. The largest portion
of the decrease is attributed to a $1.7 million decrease in Fines and Forfeitures, a $1.7 million
decrease in Parking Meter Revenues and a $978 thousand decrease in Miscellaneous
Revenues. These decreases are offset by a projected net increase of $1.4 million in Licenses and
Permits as well as a $1.1 million increase in Sales Tax and a $750 thousand increase in sales tax
attributable to Funding Our Future revenues.
The increase in Licenses and Permits is in spite of airport parking/license tax showing a
decrease due to decreased travel as a result of COVID. The decrease in airport parking and
licenses is $2,045,000. Innkeepers tax has also been hit hard by COVID and is projecting a
decrease of $1,717,500. According to the local news, hotels are experiencing 30% occupancy
compared to this time of year in previous years. Business license are also expected to be below
budget due to trends for apartment units, new business license and renew business licenses.

Sales and Use Tax - County Option - - -
TOTAL GENERAL FUND 321,086,571 319,189,573 (1,896,998)
These losses are offset by gains in permits & zoning building permits (+$1.1M), plan check fees
(+$1.5M), and street excavation (+$1.96M due to a temporary boost from Google contract).
Fines and Forfeitures are projected below budget due to a decrease in p arking ticket revenue of
$750k. Justice Court fines are down $185k, while moving violations are projected wat a loss of
$699k. The Justice Court is following the order of the Administrative Office of the Courts which
is resulting in fewer court cases and no orders to pay fines, which are then subsequently not sent
to collections and no warrants are being issued. Traffic school revenu e is down $61k and vehicle
booting is projected to be down $19k.
Parking Meter Collection is slightly less than half of the previous fiscal year due to an overall
decrease in traffic downtown. This is driving the significant decrease of $1.7 million.
Additionally, Miscellaneous Revenue has also been affected by the pandemic with decreases in
accounts receivable collections, special event revenue, fuel reimbursement due to the Mayor’s
emergency declaration and utility reimbursement.
Given the available information fund balance would be projected as follows:
City Fund Balance remains above fifteen percent, after projected use of fund balance in the current amendment and the reduction in
projected revenues.

Prepared By: Shellie Dietrich
The Police Department is requesting budget appropriation from the holding account to hire 12 lateral officers.
Lateral Class Hiring:
Lateral officers would go through a complete background and interview process.
Lateral officers have the necessary law enforcement certification from the Peace officer Standards and Training (POST).
SLCPD Training Academy for SLCPD and City specific training
Field Training program – One on one training in the field. Provide for second officer on scene to hand le calls for service
During field training, officers will be scheduled to attend a community council meeting in each district.
The Police Department has been working closely with Human Resources to analyze the departments diversity and
improvements that can be made. In 2020, most of the outreach and recruiting was suspended due to the pandemic and
budget limitations.
Traditionally, hiring a lateral class has not been as recruitment oriented as a new officer class. Currently, due to COVID
restrictions, the Police Department is relying on social media and referrals to attract a pool of candidates for the proposed
lateral hiring class. As the Police Department looks to utilize lateral hiring in the short term, we will refocus efforts on
lateral recruitment and diversity recruitment. This will include analyzing social media announcements of lateral hiring
classes and messages on diversity in the workforce. We will continue to work with Human Resources and the Racial Equity
in Policing (REP) Commission to identify and implement changes and improvements in recruiting which will provide for a
more diverse applicant pool of officers.

Prepared By: Shellie Dietrich
The Police Department is requesting budget appropriation from the holding account to cover CIT training costs. The Police
Department has implemented additional CIT training for all sworn officers. This additional training is in alignment with
the recommendations of the Commission on Racial Equity in Policing. The Police Department has been proactive and
scheduled Certification and Recertification Courses but will need overtime budget to facilitate the increase in training. Th e
overtime will be utilized to facilitate officers attending training on overtime or paying overtime to backfill those positions
for training as well as overtime for the social workers or other CIT instructors that teach the classes.

Department: Non-Departmental Prepared By: John Vuyk
The administration is proposing issuing a donation of $2,000,000 to a coalition headed by Switchpoint to assist in their
purchase of the winter overflow shelter. Switchpoint, is proposing to purchase the property for extremely low-income
seniors and veterans. The community will provide 100 housing units, with at least 25% reserved for veterans. The monthly
rent will be $415/unit. In addition to housing, Switchpoint will provide access to on site integrated treatment services for
physical and behavioral health. The total cost of purchasing and refurbishing the housing units and common areas will be
about $80,000 per unit, significantly below the new construction costs of about $2 00,000 per unit. Ongoing operating
costs of the project, including professional support for needed services will be fully supported by the rent paid by our
residents. Total cost is $8,500,000 including $6,500,000 to purchase, plus $2,000,000 to renovate. To date, Switchpoint
has secured about $2 million, and is working to secure additional funding from private donors and other entities.
