SALT LAKE CITY ORDINANCE
No.____ of 2021
(An Ordinance Permitting Certain Outdoor Business Activities and Use of Certain Temporary
Structures)
WHEREAS, Utah Code § 10-9a-504 permits a municipality, without prior consideration
and recommendation from the municipality’s planning commission, to enact a temporary land use
regulation for any part or all of a municipality for a period of time not to exceed six months if the
governing body makes a finding of compelling countervailing public interest.
WHEREAS, on March 10, 2020, the Mayor of Salt Lake City (the “Mayor”) enacted
Proclamation No. 1 of 2020, pursuant to her authority under Utah Code §§ 53-2a-208(1)(a) and
53-2a-209(1) and Salt Lake City Code Chapter 22.03, declaring a local emergency due to the
global outbreak of COVID-19 and the associated risk of spread of COVID-19 in Salt Lake City
(“City”).
WHEREAS, on June 11, 2020, the Mayor enacted Emergency Proclamation No. 11 of
2020 (“Proclamation 11”), pursuant to her authority under Salt Lake City Code 22.03.030 to
exercise certain emergency powers by proclamation while a proclamation of local emergency is in
effect.
WHEREAS, on December 12, 2020, the Mayor enacted Emergency Proclamation No. 17
of 2020 (“Proclamation 17”), pursuant to her authority under Salt Lake City Code 22.03.030 to
exercise certain emergency powers by proclamation while a proclamation of local emergency is in
effect.
WHEREAS, Proclamation 11 and Proclamation 17 were enacted to protect the citizens of
Salt Lake City from the spread of COVID-19 while maintaining an environment conducive to safe
business and commercial activity by waiving prohibitions on the use of private property adjacent
to existing businesses and waiving prohibitions governing the use of temporary structures to
encourage certain outdoor business activities.
WHEREAS, during the 2021 General Session, the Utah State Legislature passed H.B. 294,
which provides for the termination of any proclamation of a local state of emergency related to the
2
COVID-19 emergency, and any related executive order issued pursuant thereto. Such termination,
as provided in 53-2a-218(2), is triggered when certain public health data thresholds are met.
WHEREAS, the public health data thresholds are expected to be met within the near future,
if current epidemiological trends continue.
WHEREAS, the looming termination of Proclamation 11 and Proclamation 17 presents a
threat of adverse economic impact if businesses are unable to continue promoting socially
distanced outdoor business activities.
WHEREAS, the Salt Lake City Council finds a compelling, countervailing public interest
in ensuring continued robust and safe economic activity by encouraging outdoor business activities
that allow for increased social distancing in light of the ongoing threat posed by the COVID-19
pandemic, and further in light of the termination of the local state of emergency and Proclamation
11 and Proclamation 17 under H.B. 294.
WHEREAS, the City desires to authorize “Temporary Responsible Outdoor Restaurant
Dining and Retail Activities” as further defined in Section 3 and authorized in Section 4 of this
Ordinance during the effective period of this temporary land use regulation as allowed by Utah
Code § 10-9a-504.
NOW, THEREFORE, be it ordained by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah:
SECTION 1. Finding of Compelling Countervailing Public Interest. Pursuant to Utah Code
§ 10-9a-504, the Salt Lake City Council finds a compelling, countervailing public interest in
ensuring continued robust and safe economic activity by encouraging outdoor business activities
that allow for increased social distancing in light of the ongoing threat posed by the COVID-19
pandemic, and further in light of the anticipated termination of the local state of emergency and
Proclamation 11 and Proclamation 17 under H.B. 294.
SECTION 2. Duration. This temporary zoning ordinance shall remain in effect for a period
of six months from the effective date of this ordinance unless earlier amended, modified, or
repealed.
SECTION 3. Definition. “Temporary Responsible Outdoor Restaurant Dining and Retail
Activities” means retail or restaurant activity subordinate to an existing adjacent anchor business,
3
conducted outdoors to accommodate safety measures recommended by the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19, during the National Emergency
as declared by Federal Proclamation 9994 on March 13, 2020.
SECTION 4. Allowing Temporary Outdoor Restaurant Dining and Retail Activities.
Notwithstanding any contrary provisions in Title 21A of the Salt Lake City Code, a restaurant or
retail establishment which holds a current business license with the City may, for the period that
this temporary land use regulation is in effect, operate as follows:
1. Conduct Temporary Outdoor Restaurant Dining and Retail Activities on private property,
including in existing parking lots, yard areas, or any other outdoor area located on the
private property of the primary restaurant or retail use.
2. Utilize temporary freestanding canopies, patio coverings, and other similar structures
intended to be temporary in nature to help facilitate the Temporary Responsible Outdoor
Restaurant Dining and Retail Activities, and any permit fees associated with installing such
temporary freestanding canopies, patio coverings, and other similar structures shall be
waived.
SECTION 5. Full Force and Effect. The remaining terms and conditions of Title 21A of
the Salt Lake City Code shall continue to be in full force and effect, as modified by this ordinance.
SECTION 6. Effective Date. This ordinance shall become effective upon the Mayor’s
signature and publication, or after fifteen days of transmission to the office of the Mayor if neither
approved nor disapproved by the Mayor, and thereafter, publication.
Adopted by the City Council this ______day of _______, 2021.

PROMOTIONAL
DIFFERENCES
Old vs New Process in the Police
Department
Background
The promotion process in the Police Department has changed for the
better. The changes better serve the applicant, the department, the
City and citizens.
◦Old procedures -as required by the Civil Service Commission (CSC) –
have been replaced.
◦New procedures –as required by Promotional Rules (Rule) –were in
place in February 2021.
Improvements and Advantages
The updated and improved promotional procedures in the Police
Department have a number of advantages. Major advantages include:
◦Efficiency –The time to conduct the process is greatly reduced.
◦Eligibility –While providing opportunity for our internal employees,
the Rules allow the department to recruit for external applicants for
promotions above Sergeant.
◦Expansion –The Rules allow the hiring official (not only the Chief) to
choose from a larger, more diverse field.
An Applicant for Promotion
CSC
An applicant (and the entire process) had to
wait for multiple stage approvals from the
CSC. CSC typically met monthly.
Before a promotion could commence, the CSC
had to approve all details of each and every
promotion process in advance before it
commenced -even if the same promotion
process had been previously conducted (i.e.
Captain.)
Rules
The process for the applicant is much more
timely. A promotional process can commence
when the Chief, or designated hiring official,
determines there is a need to promote a person
to fill approved, vacant positions. Human
Resources conducts (as it always did) the
process.
Enhanced: Promotion processes can be
completed in a timely manner -filling essential
leadership positions faster.
An Applicant for Promotion
CSC
An applicant for promotion –whether sworn
or non-sworn -had to be an existing employee
of the Salt Lake Police Department. This meant
leadership at each level of the organization
was drawn from the same, internal pool of
applicants. As promotions were conducted for
each subsequent, higher level of leadership,
the applicants came from the same pool of
candidates.
Rules
An applicant for any promotion above Sergeant
can be external. To encourage inclusivity and
diversity the promotional process can include
internal and external candidates. To meet the
same objectives, a promotion process for
civilian positions can also include internal and
external candidates, consistent with City policy.
An Applicant for Promotion
CSC
An applicant for promotion could only be
selected –by only the Chief –if s/he was one
of the top five (5) candidates after the
promotional testing was completed. Exam
modules could include: written tests; oral
interviews or oral boards; performance test or
assessment centers. A candidate’s ranking
could be separated by one one-hundredth of a
point.
Rules
An applicant for promotion might be selected –
by a hiring official -if s/he is one of the top
twenty (20) candidates after the promotional
testing is completed. Exam modules can
include: an interview, presentation exercise,
management exercise, tactical exercise or
written communication exercise. Ranking will
still be based on precise points but allows the
hiring official to select a diverse applicant from
a larger pool.

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)

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.

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?

($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.

attrition of 4 per month and a loss of 3 during the training period
FY22 budget for funding police fte's will be needed to ensure the department can continually hire replacements
for staff that is leaving in order to re‐establish and maintain the staffing levels necessary when considering that
any officer in the academy is not eligible to take calls for service.

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.

Section A: New Items
A-1: Lateral Class GF $314,899.00
GF -$314,899.00
Department: Police Department / Non-
Departmental
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.
A-2: CIT Training GF $117,400.00
GF -$117,400.00
Department: Police Department / Non-
Departmental
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.
A-3: Switchpoint Donation GF 1,000,000.00

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.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY
TO:City Council Members
FROM: Ben Luedtke and Sylvia Richards
Budget and Policy Analysts
DATE:May 4, 2021
RE: Budget Amendment Number Nine FY2021
________________________________________________________________________________
Budget Amendment Number Nine includes requested changes to seven funds. Total expenditures are $10,039,223
including $390,659 from Fund Balance. If this budget amendment is approved as requested by the Administration, then
the amount available in Fund Balance above the 13% minimum target would be $6,754,062. There are a total of 17 items
in this amendment, including five in Section A (note that this doesn’t count four items removed prior to transmittal).
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. 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 over adopted budget 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. 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 parking ticket revenue of $750k. Justice Court
fines are down $185k, while moving violations are projected at 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.

Salt Laker Card Raise Up SLC Program Update
See Attachment 2 for a budget update through March 2021
In budget amendments #2 and #4 the Council approved a total of $1,426,264 for this program. The program has
received $178,184 in donations from other organizations and individuals for a total budget of $1,604,448.
The Community Foundation of Utah provides $500 pre-paid debit cards to other community-based organizations
working with undocumented populations. The recipients are at or below the federal poverty line and mostly
undocumented or mixed-status households where one family member is undocumented. Funding is targeted to City
residents on a first come first served basis.
When the Council approved funding last year the program expected to provide $500 cards to approximately 2,700
households that were ineligible for federal stimulus payments. Since then the Federal Government under a new
administration changed the eligibility criteria for stimulus payments. The criteria were expanded to include mixed-
status households. As a result, the number of Salt Lake City households eligible for the Salt Laker Card was
significantly reduced; a household may only receive the federal stimulus or a Salt Laker Card. Approximately 1,000
households have received a pre-paid debit card under the program.
As of March 31, 2021, the program spent nearly $500,000 on the pre-paid debit cards, another $349,000 is
currently available but not distributed pre-paid debit cards and $75,164 was spent on administration and
promotion expenses. This leaves a remaining unused budget of $680,284.
Policy Questions:
➢Deadline to Use CARES Funds – The Council may wish to ask the Administration if unused funds will need
to be returned to the Federal Government at a certain date.
➢Alternative Uses for $680,284 Remaining Budget – The Council may wish to ask if the Administration has
a recommendation for how to use the remaining budget or may wish to discuss other CARES-eligible
Council priorities. The Council may also wish to ask the Administration if the City has expenses eligible
under the CARES Act which did not receive funding in earlier budget amendments and could use the
funding this fiscal year.
Amending Appointed Pay Plan
On April 20 the Council amended the Appointed Pay Plan. The Administration is requesting another amendment to
recognize an existing Deputy Chief of Staff in the Mayor’s Office. The position is already listed on the staffing
document and was funded in the Council-adopted FY21 annual budget. The position has been vacant this fiscal
year. Amending the Appointed Pay Plan to recognize the existing position is a housekeeping correction. If the
Council supports this amendment, then it could be scheduled for a vote as soon as May 18.
Impact Fees Update
The Administration provided a summary of impact fee tracking, details on refunding amounts and dates and lists of
unfinished projects with impact fee funding. The information is current as of April 1, 2021. $1,718 of police impact
fees are scheduled to expire in April. The Administration reports work is nearing completion to update the fire and
parks sections of the impact fee plan. Eligible projects for police impact fees are being identified.

A-3: Withdrawn Prior to Transmittal

A-5: Budgeting for Inland Port Tax Revenue ($ - 0 - Budget Neutral)
As part of the City's annual financial audit, the City was informed it needs to budget and account for City tax
revenue within 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 expenditure account recognizing the pass-through, so City revenue is not overstated. A $500,000
portion of the Inland Port revenue was accounted for in Budget Amendment #7 of this fiscal year. This amendment
will account for the remaining $483,242 in anticipated revenue. At the time of writing Budget Amendment #7, the
City did not know when actual tax revenue would be determined. The final revenue allocation was received on
March 30.
A-6: Budgeting for Convention Hotel Tax Revenue ($ - 0 - Budget Neutral)
As part of the City's annual financial audit, the City was informed it needs to budget and account for City tax
revenue at the Convention Center Hotel. Because the tax revenue is dispersed directly to the convention hotel, the
City does not receive the tax revenue. The City will budget a line item to recognize the tax revenue and a
corresponding expenditure account, so City revenue is not overstated. This amendment is for the $10,116 in
anticipated revenue.
The hotel is being built on County-owned property. This means the property was tax-exempt and became taxable
with the hotel construction. The GOED Development Board adopted a motion on November 6, 2018 which
approved the following incentive package under authority of Utah Code 63N-2-503.5. Approve Salt Lake City CH,
LLC for a post-performance, New Convention Facility Development, Incentive consisting of:
Up to 100% of the new incremental State Sales Tax not to exceed $75,000,000 over 20 years
Up to 100% of local (city and county) sales tax and property tax over 25 years
Including conveyance of land from Salt Lake County to Salt Lake City CH, LLC
State law includes language to hold the Redevelopment Agency (RDA) harmless for existing debt obligations
(bonds). Some hotel increment could be used to meet RDA bond payments if needed in the future. The County is
required to provide an annual report identifying tax increment generated by the hotel property. See Attachment 1
for a letter from the Salt Lake County Auditor that provides a breakdown of tax increment revenues being diverted
by taxing entity.
A-7: Presumption for CARES Act Funding – ($-293,067 – General Fund)
The Council approved the use of unspent CARES funds for Fire personnel expenses. This amendment removes
personnel expenses in Fire that were used for this method and passes the eligible budget from previously budgeted
line items to Fire. Note that this item is related to items A-8 and E-2 below. The Administration provided the
following accounting summary:
1. Salt Lake City received a 3rd bucket of federal money in December. This needed to be spent by the 21st of
December and reported to Salt Lake County. This amount was $150,000.
2. Once all the actuals had been expensed for both the internet allowance and the hazard pay there was
remaining budget. This amount needs to also be accounted for by December 21st, 2020 to Salt Lake County,
and those remaining dollars were accounted for through Fire personnel expenses.
3. The Fire personnel services were used for both totals above.
4. Since these the expenses were reduced in the Fire Department the General Fund budget needs to be
reduced as well
Page | 6
5. This funding then becomes available to use for a General Fund use. The administration is requesting to use
this funding to accommodate the Emergency Management Division relocating to the Fire Department.
A-8: Fire Emergency Management Office Build Out – ($293,067 – General Fund)
The Administration is proposing to use the third round of CARES Act funding ($150,000) and the remaining
unspent amounts from the first two round ($143,067.36) to build office space for Emergency Management within
the Fire Department. Emergency Management is growing and is currently limited in office space. The current staff
reside on the 3rd floor of the PSB, many in spaces designed as common space or break-out rooms. Adjacent to this
area, is open floor space that can be converted to office space. This would include 2 new Division Chief offices, 2
new Captain offices, plus cubicle space and open space. Construction budget is estimated at $275,000 plus
furniture requirements of $42,000. Fire Department funds will be used to complete any additional costs not
covered in this amendment.
A-9: 911-ETM Security Platform – ($41,138 – E911 Fund)
SLC911 has seen an unprecedented surge of digital attacks on their 911 and administrative lines. The result has been
a telephone denial of service attack (TDoS) which means that a series of calls spoof incoming lines by merging other
public safety answering points together, or robo calling which overwhelms lines for service. While we have been
fortunate to date, we are seeing this behavior more frequently. Without this protection, our communities are at risk
and it would have a devastating impact on the ability of the center to answer emergency calls. SLC911 is requesting
emergency funding to purchase an enterprise voice network security platform. This platform includes hardware,
software, and monitoring services. The managed services will monitor 911's administrative systems for threats and
respond with specific recommendations to mitigate any attacks. This funding is requested to come from Fund 60,
the E911 Tax Fund, not the General Fund.
Hardware $9,685
Licensing $2,878
Installation/Training $3,375
Monitoring Services $25,200
Total Requested $41,138
Additional information such as whether or not there is an annual cost was forthcoming at the time of publishing
this staff report.

Section D: Housekeeping
D-1: Police Impact Fee Refund – ($510,828 – Police Impact Fees)
The City Council set aside funding for the purchase of property for an East Side Precinct using Police Impact Fees.
The intended property did not work for an eastside police precinct and refunds of the impact fees are now required.
These refunds will be funded primarily with previous unclaimed refunds. The Council may wish to inquire if the
Administration is continuing to pursue an East Side Precinct given evolving conversations about the overall Public
Safety service delivery model.
D-2: Moving Transportation CIP Projects to CIP Fund – ($8,695,770 – CIP Fund)
Currently the Transportation CIP projects reside in the Transportation fund. Because the fund is a
governmental fund, assets will need to be carefully evaluated, capitalized, depreciated, and reported like the regular
CIP funds. This is a time intensive project and one of the biggest bottle necks for the financial audit. To relieve some
of this pressure, we request that the Transportation capital projects be moved to the CIP fund so they can be
processed like the other CIP funds. The funds will be easily identifiable as being funded by the Transportation sales
tax. No additional funding is required as this just moves the funds from the Transportation Fund to the CIP Fund.
Note that all these funds are from the County quarter cent sales tax for transportation.
Page | 7
D-3: Transfer CIP Funds to Refuse Fund – ($46,982 – CIP Fund)
The Department of Sustainability is requesting a budget amendment to transfer $46,982 from CIP to the
Environment and Energy Fund, reflecting the closing out of a previously funded project. During FY19 the
Department of Sustainability transferred $240,000 to CIP to be used in conjunction with a Rocky Mountain Power
Bluesky grant toward installing rooftop solar on the Sorenson Unity Center building. The Sorenson Rooftop Solar
Project is now finished, and the department is requesting that the remaining unused funds of $46,982 be
transferred back into the Environment and Energy Fund (E&E).
Due to the shrinking E&E fund balance these funds are greatly needed and will be used to fund future sustainability
projects and operations.
D-4: Transfer Bond Funds from 700 West Cost Center to Bond Contingency – ($917,854 – CIP
Fund)
The budgetary estimate of construction costs for the 700 West Road Re-Construction Bond project was
$2,000,000. 10% of these funds were assigned to an overall fund for bond contingencies. The 700 West Cost Center
was, therefore, $1,800,000. 700 West was also eligible for $155,000 of Impact Fees. The bids for 700 West came in
well below the budgeted amount. With the completion of construction and the application of Impact Fees, the 700
West project is $917,853.80 below the budgeted amount. This includes the hard and soft costs.
These funds are being requested to be moved to one of the 2020 or 2021 contingency funds so the bond funds can
be expended on upcoming bond road projects.
D-5: Corrections for Debt Transfer Errors in Original Adopted Budget – ($78,291 – Fund Balance
for Debt Service)
During the chaos of the COVID pandemic, the estimated savings from existing cash in the debt service fund of
$22,892 (see CIP book page A6) were subtracted twice. It is necessary to add additional budget to cover sales tax
bonds. Additionally, the City also expected to realize savings from refunding the ESCO debt of $55,399 (see Budget
Book page B21). As the bonds were evaluated in preparation for the refunding, there was not the estimated savings
that were expected. The total amount needed is $78,291.
D-6: Donation Fund Increase – ($200,000 – Donation Fund)
There is a strong possibility that before the year-end the City will receive several large donations that will exceed the
amount approved in the annual budget. It is necessary to have enough budget to accommodate all the donations
and be underbudget by the end of the fiscal year and be in compliance for the audit. As of December 30th, 2020,
there were approximately $80,000 in donations. If the expected donations are received, the City will need
approximately $200,000 in budget. All donations are processed as required through the donation ordinance and
will be reported in detail to Council after the end of the year.
D-7: Fire Department – Reimbursement for Wildland/Search & Rescue Deployments – ($230,683 –
General Fund)
Personnel were deployed several times during Fall 2020. A team was mobilized to Hurricane Laura in August, a
Search & Rescue team assisted in Oregon in September while simultaneously another team volunteered to fight
their Wildfires. The department helped fight the California Wildfires in October. Finally, crews assisted in Utah
County on the Ridge Fire. All costs associated with these deployments will be reimbursed to Salt Lake City. We are
asking the City Council to approve this request to offset personnel costs that include overtime, benefits, and backfill.
This proposal will make the fire department whole as well as the General Fund with offsetting revenues. The request
is only for the amount of revenues we have received.
Expenses
Hurricane Laura - August 2020 $87,572.01
Oregon Wildfire Search & Rescue - September 2020 $234,201.93
Oregon Wildfire - September 2020 $243,468.67
California Wildfire - October 2020 $176,218.51

Remainder of Reimbursement will likely be received in FY22 and will be included in the Mayor’s Recommended
Budget as a one-time revenue and expense line item.
D-8: Fire Department – Other Reimbursements – ($59,126 – General Fund)
The Fire Department has provided several services in which it expects to receive a reimbursement including: Fire
Inspector overtime on behalf of the SLC Airport Redevelopment contractor, backfill costs caused by Utah Search
and Rescue training at their request, Fire Watch services for the Vice Presidential Debate at the University of Utah,
and finally cost recovery efforts from negligent accidents/incidents.
Airport Redevelopment Inspector OT $7,671.50

D-9: Fire Department COVID Costs – ($605,435 – General Fund)
COVID19 ERPL and Worker's Compensation claims caused by COVID19 have had a detrimental effect to the Fire
Department's budget. While ERPL was very much appreciated by Fire personnel, it caused a dramatic rise in the
cost of backfilling open shifts. The Fire Department has a 4-handed staffing mandate, meaning each apparatus will
have 4 personnel and the department will "buy back" off duty personnel to fill any gaps. Many times, this cost is
paid out at overtime. When Emergency Responders tested positive for COVID19, it was a presumptive positive,
meaning it was assumed the infection was obtained while working on the job in their role for Salt Lake City. It is
anticipated that some of these costs will eventually be reimbursed by FEMA.
This request is for Worker's Compensation claims directly caused by COVID19, and ERPL associated backfill costs
(Buybacks, Fullstaffs, OT, MRT OT).
WC Claims $155,295
ERPL Backfill $450,140
Total $605,435
Section E: Grants Requiring No New Staff Resources
E-1: Salt Lake County, CATNIP, Reconfigure Gilmer Drive – ($55,365 – CIP Fund)
The Transportation Division received a follow up grant award from Salt Lake County for $55,365 to finish up
the original 9 Line / 900 South Trail. The Gilmer Drive Intersection was not completed during the original
contract period so the funds were unspent.
The County issued a new Interlocal Agreement with the City to finish the project funding from the original
Agreement. This funding is to reconfigure the Gilmer Drive Intersection; move and curb, add a landscaped
separation between bikeway and roadway and install wayfinding signage.
In FY18 The Transportation Division applied for and received a grant from Salt Lake County for $500,000
under the Countywide Active Transportation Network Improvement Program 2017. This grant is to be used for
design and construction of the segment of the 9 Line / 900 South Trail between 900 East and 1300 East.
Construction of the trail segment would occur in conjunction with road reconstruction from Lincoln (950 East)
to 1300 East and the installation of wayfinding signs on 900 South and Gilmer Drive.
This grant has a no match requirement.
A public hearing was held on 12/12/17 on the original grant application for this award.

E-2: CARES ACT Third Tranche – ($150,000 – Grant Fund)
Salt Lake City received $150,000 from the third tranche of CARES Act funding. In BA#4 the Council authorized
the Administration to use the presumption that any amount received in this tranche would cover costs associated
with expenses within the Fire Department. This amendment formalizes that assumption, with the City recognizing
the revenue and an expense associated with the award.

Section G: Council Consent Agenda No. 3 – Grant Awards
G-1: Utah State Department of Public Safety, Bureau of Forensic Services, FY20 Paul Coverdell

Dear Danny Walz,
Pursuant to Utah Code Ann. § 63N-2-508 of the “New Convention Facility Development
Incentives,” Salt Lake County shall retain incremental property tax revenue (IPTR) for tax
year 2020. This reduces any tax increment financing that otherwise would have been
paid to the host agency. Incremental value and revenue from an increase in the taxable
value of hotel property are used as adjustments in the certified tax rate calculation
pursuant to UCA § 59-2-924.
For transparency of the use of taxpayer monies and to assist you with your budget
preparation, our office is providing you with IPTR information.
If you have questions on IPTR, please contact Greg Folta in the Salt Lake County Mayor’s
Office of Financial Administration at (385) 468-7076, or gfolta@slco.org.
Sincerely,
Scott Tingley, CIA, CGAP

TOTAL GENERAL FUND 321,086,571 319,189,573 (1,896,998)
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.
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 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.
Given the available information fund balance would be projected as follows:
With the current use of fund balance from this budget amendment fund balance drops to 15.09%.

A-2: Withdrawn Prior to Transmittal
A-3: Withdrawn Prior to Transmittal
A-4: Withdrawn Prior to Transmittal
A-5: 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. A $500,000 portion of the Inland Port revenue was accounted for in budget amendment #7 of
this fiscal year. This amendment will account for the remaining $483,242 in anticipated revenue.
A-6: Convention Hotel 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 at the
Convention Center Hotel. Because the tax revenue is dispersed directly to the convention hotel, 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. This amendment is for the $10,116 in anticipated revenue.
A-7: Presumption for CARES GF -$293,067.36
Department: Finance Prepared By: John Vuyk
The Council approved the use of the assumption for any unspent funds from CARES. This amendment recognizes the
removes personnel expenses in Fire that were used for the assumption and passes the eligible budget from previously
budgeted line items to Fire.
A-8: Fire Emergency Management Office Buildout
GF $293,067.36
Department: Finance Prepared By: Mary Beth Thompson/
Clint Rasmussen
The Administration is proposing to use the third traunche of CARES Act funding ($150,000) and the remaining unspent
amounts from the first two traunches ($143,067.36) to build office space for Emergency Management within the Fire
Department. Emergency Management is growing and is currently limited in office space. The current staff reside on the
3rd floor of the PSB, many in spaces designed as common space or break-out rooms. Adjacent to this area, is open floor
space that can be converted to office space. This would include 2 new Division Chief offices, 2 new Captain offices, plus
cubicle space and open space. Construction budget is estimated at $275,000 plus furniture requirements of $42,000. Fire
Department funds will be used to complete any additional costs not covered in this amendment.

A-9: 911-ETM Security Platform E911 $41,138.00
Department: E911 Communications Prepared By: Clint Rasmussen
SLC911 has seen an unprecedented surge of digital attacks on their 911 and administrative lines. The result has been a
telephone denial of service attack (TDoS) which means that a series of calls spoof incoming lines by merging other public
safety answering points together, or robo calling which overwhelms lines for service. While we have been fortunate to date,
we are seeing this behavior more frequently. Without this protection, our communities are at risk and it would have a
devastating impact on the ability of the center to answer emergency calls. SLC911 is requesting emergency funding to
purchase an enterprise voice network security platform. This platform includes hardware, software, and monitoring
services. The managed services will monitor 911's administrative systems for threats and respond with specific
recommendations to mitigate any attacks. This funding is requested to come from Fund 60, the E911 Tax Fund, not the
General Fund.
Hardware $9,685
Licensing $2,878
Installation/Training $3,375
Monitoring Services $25,200

D-1: Police Impact Fee Refund Impact Fees -$510,828.00
Impact Fees $510,828.00
Department: Finance Prepared By: John Vuyk / Mike Atkinson
The City Council set aside funding for the purchase of property using Police Impact Fees. The intended property did not
work for the police precinct and refunds of the impact fees are now required. These refunds will be funded with proceeds
from unclaimed refunds from Cost Center 8417006. The remaining funds in 8417006 will be returned to 8484001.
D-2: Moving Transportation CIP Projects to CIP Fund Trans -$8,695,770.00
Trans $8,695,770.00
CIP $8,695,770.00
Department: Finance Prepared By: Mike Atkinson
Currently the Transportation CIP projects reside in the Transportation fund. Because the fund is a governmental fund,
assets will need to be carefully evaluated, capitalized, depreciated and reported like the regular CIP funds. This is a time
intensive project and one of the biggest bottle necks for the financial audit. To relieve some of this pressure, we request
that the Transportation capital projects be moved to the CIP fund so they can be processed like the other CIP funds. The
funds will be easily identifiable as being funded by the Transportation sales tax. No additional funding is required as this
just moves the funds from the Transportation Fund to the CIP Fund.

D-3: Transfer CIP Funds to Refuse Fund CIP $46,982.37
Department: Sustainability Prepared By: Gregg Evans
The Department of Sustainability is requesting a budget amendment to transfer $46,982 from CIP to the Envi ronment and
Energy Fund 00577 within the Refuse Fund Class 57. During FY19 the Department of Sustainability transferred $240,000
to CIP (CC 8320715) to be used in conjunction with an RMP Bluesky grant toward installing rooftop solar on the Sorenson
Unity Center building. The Sorenson Rooftop Solar Project is now finished, and the department is requesting that the
remaining unused funds of $46,982 be transferred back into the Environment and Energy Fund (E&E) within the Refuse
Fund Class 57.
Due to the shrinking E&E fund balance these funds are greatly needed and will be used to fund future sustainability
projects and operations.
D-4: Transfer Bond Funds from 700 West Cost Center to Bond
Contingency
CIP -$917,854.00
CIP $917,854.00
Department: Community & Neighborhoods Prepared By: John Vuyk
The budgetary estimate of construction costs for the 700 West Road Re-Construction Bond project was $2,000,000. 10%
of these funds were assigned to the 2020 Bond Contingency Fund. The 700 West Cost Center was, therefore, $1,800,000.
700 West was also eligible for $155,000 of Impact Fees. The bids for 700 West came in well below the budgeted amount.
With the completion of construction and the application of Impact Fees, the 700 West project is $917,853.80 below the
budgeted amount. This includes the hard and soft costs.
These funds are being requested to be moved to one of the 2020 or 2021 contingency fu nds so the bond funds can be
expended on upcoming bond road projects.
D-5: Corrections for Debt Transfer Errors in Original Adopted
Budget
GF $78,291.00
Debt Service $78,291.00
Department: Finance Prepared By: Russ Sundquist
During the chaos of the COVID pandemic, the estimated savings from existing cash in the debt service fund of $22,892
(see CIP book page A6) were subtracted twice. It is necessary to add additional budget to cover sales tax bonds.
Additionally, the City also expected to realize savings from refunding the ESCO debt of $55,399 (see Budget Book page
B21). As the bonds were evaluated in preparation for the refunding, there was not the estimated savings that were
expected. The total amount needed is $78,291.
D-6: Donation Fund Increase Donation $200,000.00
Department: Finance Prepared By: Teresa Beckstrand
There is a strong possibility that before the year-end we will receive several large donations that will exceed the amount
approved in the annual budget. It is necessary to have enough budget to accommodate all the donations and be under
budget by the end of the fiscal year and be in compliance for the audit. As of December 30th, 2020 there were
approximately $80,000 in donations. If the expected donations are received, we will need approximately $200,000 in
budget. All donations are processed as required through the donation ordinance and will be reported in detail to Council
after the end of the year.

D-7: Fire Department – Wildland/Search & Rescue Deployments GF $230,683.00
Department: Fire Prepared By: Clint Rasmussen
Personnel were deployed several times during Fall 2020. A team was mobilized to Hurricane Laura in August, a Search &
Rescue team assisted in Oregon in September while simultaneously another team volunteered to fight their Wildfires. The
department helped fight the California Wildfires in October. Finally, crews assisted in Utah County on the Ridge Fire. All
costs associated with these deployments will be reimbursed to Salt Lake City. We are asking the City Council to approve
this request to offset personnel costs that include overtime, benefits, and backfill. This proposal will make the fire
department whole as well as the General Fund with offsetting revenues. The request is only for the amount of revenues we
have received.
Expense
Hurricane Laura - August 2020 $ 87,572.01
Oregon Wildfire Search & Rescue - September 2020 $234,201.93
Oregon Wildfire - September 2020 $243,468.67
California Wildfire - October 2020 $ 176,218.51

Reimbursement Rec'd $230,682.95
Remainder of Reimbursement will likely be received in FY22 and will be included in the Mayor’s Recommended Budget as
a one-time revenue and expense line item.
D-8: Fire Department – Other Reimbursements GF $59,126.00
Department: Fire Prepared By: Clint Rasmussen
The Fire Department has provided several services in which it expects to receive a reimbursement including: Fire Inspector
overtime on behalf of the SLC Airport Redevelopment contractor, backfill costs caused by Utah Search and Rescue training
at their request, Fire Watch services for the Vice Presidential Debate at the University of Utah, and finally cost recovery
efforts from negligent accidents/incidents.
Airport Redevelopment Inspector OT $ 7,671.50
Utah Search and Rescue (USAR) Training/Backfill $19,006.05
Cost Recovery $28,811.15

D-9: Fire Department COVID Costs GF $605,435.00
Department: Fire Prepared By: Clint Rasmussen
COVID19 ERPL and Worker's Compensation claims caused by COVID19 have had a detrimental effect to the Fire
Department's budget. While ERPL was very much appreciated by Fire personnel, it caused a dramatic rise in the cost of
backfilling open shifts. The Fire Department has a 4-handed staffing mandate, meaning each apparatus will have 4
personnel and the department will "buy back" off duty personnel to fill any gaps. Many times, this cost is paid out at
overtime. When Emergency Responders tested positive for COVID19, it was a presumptive positive, meaning it was
assumed the infection was obtained while working on the job in their role for Salt Lake City. It is anticipated that some of
these costs will eventually be reimbursed by FEMA.
This request is for Worker's Compensation claims directly caused by COVID19, and ERPL associated backfill costs
(Buybacks, Fullstaffs, OT, MRT OT).
WC Claims $155,295
ERPL Backfill $450,140
Total $605,435
Section E: Grants Requiring No New Staff Resources
E-1: Salt Lake County, CATNIP, Reconfigure Gilmer Drive CIP $55,365.00
Department: Finance Prepared By: Melyn Osmond
The Transportation Division received a follow up grant award from Salt Lake County for $55,365 to finish up
the original 9 Line / 900 South Trail. The Gilmer Drive Intersection was not completed during the original
contract period so the funds were unspent.
The County issued a new Interlocal Agreement with the City to finish the project funding from the original
Agreement. This funding is to reconfigure the Gilmer Drive Intersection; move and curb, add a landscaped
separation between bikeway and roadway and install wayfinding signage.
In FY18 The Transportation Division applied for and received a grant from Salt Lake County for $500,000
under the Countywide Active Transportation Network Improvement Program 2017. This grant is to be used for
design and construction of the segment of the 9 Line / 900 South Trail between 900 East and 1300 East.
Construction of the trail segment would occur in conjunction with road reconstruction from Lincoln (950 East)
to 1300 East and the installation of wayfinding signs on 900 South and Gilmer Drive.
This grant has a no match requirement.
A public hearing was held on 12/12/17 on the original grant application for this award.
E-2: CARES Act, third tranche Grant $150,000.00
Department: Finance Prepared By: Melyn Osmond
Salt Lake City received $150,000 from the third tranche of CARES Act funding. In BA#4 the Council authorized
the Administration to use the presumption that any amount received in this tranche would cover costs
associated with expenses within the Fire Department. This amendment formalizes that assumption, with the
City recognizing the revenue and an expense associated with the award.

anticipated remaining accreditation costs, which will be funded through this FY20 award, include the assessment fee and
the annual accreditation fee based on the laboratory’s scope of operations.
A match is not required for this award.

RE: Zoning Map Amendment: 2058 North 2200 West from AG-2 to M-1
PLNPCM2018-00657
MAY 4, 2021 UPDATE
Prior to the July 16, 2019 meeting at which the Council was scheduled to vote on this item, the applicant
requested the Council postpone voting until he and the adjacent property owner, Nathan Sainsbury, came to an
agreement both parties were comfortable with. Since then the applicant purchased Mr. Sainsbury’s property at
2060 North 2200 West. The applicant intends to submit a separate rezone application for that property in the
coming weeks.
The applicant asked the Council to consider acting on the subject zoning map amendment now that he owns the
adjacent parcel previously owned by Mr. Sainsbury. This is tentatively scheduled for May 18, 2021.
PUBLIC HEARING SUMMARY
Nathan Sainsbury, owner of 2060 North 2200 West, spoke at the July 9, 2019 public hearing. His property
is surrounded on three sides by the property proposed to be rezoned. Mr. Sainsbury noted concerns of
increased traffic and noise as well as negative impact to his property value should the surrounding property
be rezoned. He was the only person to comment at the hearing.
The Council closed the public hearing and deferred action to a future Council meeting. The Council is
scheduled to consider taking action July 16.
BRIEFING UPDATE
At the March 26, 2019 briefing, Council discussion focused primarily on impacts to the property owner at
2060 North 2200 West whose property is surrounded on three sides by the subject property. Council
Item Schedule:
Briefing: March 26, 2019

Member Rogers said he would like to talk with this property owner. The Council pulled the item from the
consent agenda and did not schedule a public hearing to allow time for that meeting to happen.
Council Member Rogers met with the 2060 North 2200 West property owner during which the owner
expressed opposition to the rezone.
Following the briefing Planning staff sent an email clarifying a statement about a large rezoning that
happened in 2017. During the briefing it was stated the Council amended AG-2 (Agricultural) zoning to
M-1 (Manufacturing) along 2200 West. The email clarified zoning was changed from BP (Business Park),
not AG-2 to M-1. Parcels in the area zoned AG-2 would retain that zoning designation until property
owners applied to rezone them to M-1.
Since the briefing, other property owners to the east of the subject parcel submitted applications to rezone
their parcels to M-1.
A public hearing is scheduled for July 9, 2019.
The following information was provided for the March 26, 2019 Council briefing. It is
provided again for background purposes.
The Council will be briefed about an ordinance to amend the zoning map for an approximately 2.68 acre
parcel located at 2058 North 2200 West from AG-2 (Agricultural District) to M-1 (Light Manufacturing).
This is one of five properties currently zoned AG-2 fronting on 2200 West between North Temple and 2100
North. The other parcels zoned AG-2 are 1980, 1998, 2004 and 2060 North 2200 West. With the exception
of these parcels and some others adjacent to North Temple, which are zoned Mixed Use Transit Station, all
other parcels along 2200 West between 2100 North and North Temple are zoned M-1.
The property owner would like to change the zoning of this parcel in order to more closely align with the
master plan future land use designation and to accommodate potential future commercial uses. Although
no development request has been submitted, the applicant suggested to Planning staff future development
could include a gas station and/or storage units, both of which are permitted uses in the M-1 zone, but not
the AG-2 zone.
The owner of the subject parcel at 2058 North 2200 West is in negotiations to purchase the adjacent 0.64
acre parcel at 2060 North 2200 West which is surrounded on three sides by the 2058 North parcel (shown
in the image below). The owner of 2060 has not expressed concern or objection to rezoning the subject
parcel. It should be noted the adjacent parcel is not part of this petition and may be the subject of a future
zoning map amendment.
Planning staff recommended and the Planning Commission forwarded a positive recommendation to the
City Council for this rezone.
Page | 3
Aerial view of subject parcel outlined in pink and adjacent parcel in yellow
Goal of the briefing: To review the proposed zoning map amendment, determine if the Council
supports moving forward with the proposal and direct staff to prepare for a public hearing.
POLICY QUESTION
1. Does the Council support the Planning Commission’s recommendation to adopt the proposed
changes?
ADDITONAL INFORMATION
The Planning Commission staff report (pages 18-19 of the Administration’s transmittal) identifies two key
issues. A short description of each issue and the finding is provided below for reference. Please see the
Planning Commission staff report for full analysis.
1. Master Plan Recommendations
The Northpoint Small Area Plan was adopted in 2000 and includes the subject property. The plan
shows future land use of this area as Business Park (BP) which was consistent with zoning put in
place during the citywide zoning amendment project in 1995. While the Northpoint Small Area
Plan identifies this area as a Business Park, it states the BP zone should be amended to allow retail
and service type businesses to support the area’s employee base. BP zoning allows retail and
restaurant uses only if they are approved as part of an overall business park planned development.
They are not allowed as single uses on a property, which limits feasibility of these uses in the area.
Although the proposed M-1 zoning is not strictly consistent with the future land use designation in
the Northpoint Small Area Plan, Planning staff believes the zoning amendment is consistent with
the plan’s intent for the following reasons:
Page | 4
a) The plan highlights a need for retail and services for the area’s future employees. The M-1
district allows single-tenant retail and service uses which could serve area employees.
b) Uses in the M-1 district are required to be environmentally clean, light industrial. Heavy
manufacturing is not allowed.
c) Mitigation measures included in M-1 zoning will protect existing AG properties as noted in
issue 2 below.
2. Adopted Mitigation Measures
•Chapter 21A.28.020 Salt Lake City Code was previously amended to add buffer yards for
properties adjacent to AG-2 and AG-5 properties. These measures were adopted to ensure
adequate buffering between future commercial development on 2200 West and remaining
agricultural zoning and uses.
•The initial application proposed changing the current AG-2 zoning to CG (General
Commercial). Planning staff encouraged the applicant to amend the initially proposed CG
zoning to M-1 in order to apply mitigation measures for adjacent properties zoned AG-2.
Attachment G of the Planning Commission staff report (pages 37-38 of the Administration’s transmittal)
outlines standards that should be considered as the Council reviews this proposal. Planning staff found this
proposal complies with all applicable standards. (Note-Planning staff found Standard 5 is not applicable as
noted below.) An outline of the analysis is summarized below, please see the Planning Commission staff
report for full details.
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.
•Planning staff is of the opinion the proposal is consistent with the intent of the Northpoint
Small Area Master Plan.
2. Whether a proposed map amendment furthers the specific purpose statements of the zoning
ordinance.
•Proposed zone changes would support the following zoning ordinance purposes:
o Protect the tax base
o Foster the City’s industrial, business and residential development
3. The extent to which a proposed map amendment will affect adjacent properties.
•Previous text amendments provide for larger buffer yards in the M-1 zoning district to
protect existing agricultural uses. Planning staff found the current M-1 development
standards appropriately buffers existing AG-2 properties.
4. Whether a proposed map amendment is consistent with the purposes and provisions of any
applicable overlay zoning districts which may impose additional standards.
•The project area is partially located in Airport Flight Path Protection Zones A and B. In
the event of a conflict on uses of the property, overlay district regulations would prevail.
5. The adequacy of public facilities and services intended to serve the subject property, including, but
not limited to, roadways, parks and recreational facilities, police and fire protection, schools, storm
water drainage systems, water supplies, and wastewater and refuse collection. (Not applicable at
this time.)
•The proposal is only for a zoning map amendment and not tied to a development request.
•Future requests would be reviewed to ensure compliance with City codes and policies.
Page | 5
PUBLIC PROCESS
A letter providing early notification of the proposed zoning map amendment was mailed September 19,
2018 to residents and property owners within 300 feet of the subject parcel. The Westpointe Community
Council was notified via email September 19, 2018. The community council did not request a presentation
or additional information from Planning staff or the applicant. A second notice was sent to residents and
property owners November 19, 2018.
One phone call was received by Planning staff from an abutting property owner expressing concern about
encroaching M-1 zoning, but understands this is the intended zoning for 2200 West.
No objections to the proposed zoning map amendment were raised by any City department.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing at its November 28, 2018 meeting. No comments were
received. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to forward a favorable recommendation to the City
Council.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council follow the recommendation of the Planning
Commission and approve the requested zoning map amendment.
BUDGET IMPACT: None
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
This is a request by a private land owner to amend the zoning map for the subject property from
AG-2 (Agricultural District) to M-1 (Light Manufacturing). The property owner is seeking to
amend the subject property to implement the future land use designations noted in the applicable
Master Plan and to increase the economic viability of the subject property. M-1 (Light
Manufacturing) zoning district aligns with the future anticipated use of the subject property.
Additionally, the properties located to the south along 2200 West were rezoned from BP
(Business Park) zoning district to M-1 (Light manufacturing) zoning district in 2017.

Aerial Image of Current Zoning
The following are the purpose statements of the AG-2 (existing zoning) and M-1 (proposed
zoning) districts:
The purpose of the AG-2 Agricultural District is to preserve and protect agricultural uses
in suitable portions of Salt Lake City on lots not less than two (2) acres. These
regulations are also designed to minimize conflicts between agricultural and
nonagricultural uses. This district is appropriate in areas of the City where the applicable
Master Plans support this type of land use.
The purpose of the M-1 Light Manufacturing District is to provide an environment for
light industrial uses that produce no appreciable impact on adjacent properties, that desire
a clean attractive industrial setting, and that protects nearby sensitive lands and
waterways. This zone is appropriate in locations that are supported by the applicable
Master Plan policies adopted by the City. This district is intended to provide areas in the
City that generate employment opportunities and to promote economic development. The
uses include other types of land uses that support and provide service to manufacturing
and industrial sues. Safe, convenient and inviting connections that provide access to
businesses from public sidewalks, bike paths and streets are necessary and to be provided
in an equal way. Certain land uses are prohibited in order to preserve land for
manufacturing uses and to promote the importance of nearby environmentally sensitive
lands.
The Northpoint Small Area Plan was adopted in 2000 and includes the subject property. The plan
shows the future land use of this area as Business Park which was consistent with the zoning put
in place during the citywide zoning amendment project in 1995. While the Northpoint Small
Area Plan identifies the area as a Business Park, it also states that the Business Park zone should
be amended to allow retail and service type of business that would support the employee base in
the area. In addition to the Business Park land use designation, the Northpoint Small Area Plan
also states that future business park development should be buffered from the existing
agricultural properties. The buffer includes a 100 foot building setback, a 50 foot parking lot
setback, and landscaping with a five foot tall berm. The buffer to protect the remaining AG
properties was included in the M-1 zoning district in 2017, petition number PLNPCM2016-
00788.
Since the subject property is one of five properties that front 2200 West that are currently zoned
AG-2. The mitigation measures adopted in 2017 will apply to the subject parcel proposed for a
zoning map amendment. The proposed zoning map amendment complies with the listed
standards found in 21A.50.050.
PUBLIC PROCESS:
The following is a list public process for the proposed amendment:
• September 18, 2018: Provided a notice of application to the Westpoint Community
Council.
• November 20, 2018: One phone call was received from an abutting property within the
AG-2 zoning district. The property owner had concerns over the encroaching M-1
zoning, but understands that the intended zoning for 2200 west is M-1 (Light
Manufacturing).
• November 28, 2018: Planning Commission meeting was held.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This is a request by a private land owner to amend the existing AG-2 (Agricultural District) to M-1 (Light
Manufacturing) zoning district. The property owner is seeking to amend the subject property to implement the
future land use designations noted in the applicable master plan and to increase the economic viability of the
subject property. M-1 (Light Manufacturing) zoning district aligns with the future anticipated use of the subject
property. Additionally, the properties located to the south along 2200 West were rezoned from BP (Business
Park) zoning district to M-1 (Light Manufacturing) zoning district in 2017.
Agricultural District (AG-2) VS. Light Industrial (M-1) Zoning
The following are the purpose statements of the AG-2 (existing zoning) and M-1 (proposed zoning) districts:
The purpose of the AG-2 Agricultural District is to preserve and protect agricultural uses in suitable
portions of Salt Lake City on lots not less than two (2) acres. These regulations are also designed to
minimized conflicts between agricultural and nonagricultural uses. This district is appropriate in areas
of the City where the applicable Master Plans support this type of land use.
The purpose of the M-1 Light Manufacturing District is to provide an environment for light
industrial uses that produce no appreciable impact on adjacent properties, that desire a clean attractive
industrial setting, and that protects nearby sensitive lands and waterways. This zone is appropriate in
locations that are supported by the applicable Master Plan policies adopted by the City. This district is
intended to provide areas in the City that generate employment opportunities and to promote economic
development. The uses include other types of land uses that support and provide service to
manufacturing and industrial uses. Safe, convenient and inviting connections that provide access to
businesses from public sidewalks, bike paths and streets are necessary and to be provided in an equal
way. Certain land uses are prohibited in order to preserve land for manufacturing uses and to promote
the importance of nearby environmentally sensitive lands.
The purpose of the amendment is to facilitate future commercial land uses along the 2200 West corridor and to
provide a contiguous district along 2200 West. The remaining AG-2 (Agricultural District) will be appropriately
buffered with the adopted amendments that were incorporated into the M-1 Zoning District regulations.
KEY ISSUES:
The key issues listed below have been identified through the analysis of the project, neighbor and community
input and department review comments.
1. Mater Plan Recommendations
2. Adopted Mitigation Measures
Issue 1: Master Plan Recommendations
The Northpoint Small Area Plan was adopted in 2000 and includes the subject property. The plan shows the
future land use of this area as Business Park which was consistent with the zoning put in place during the
Citywide zoning amendment project in 1995. While the Northpoint Small Area Plan identifies the area as a
Business Park, it also states that the Business Park zone should be amended to allow retail and service type
businesses that would support the employee base in the area. The Business Park zoning district allows retail
and restaurant uses only if they are approved as part of an overall business park planned development. They
are not allowed as single uses on a property, which limits the feasibility of these uses occurring in the area.
In addition to the Business Park land use designation, the Northpoint Small Area Plan also states that future
business park development should be buffered from the existing agricultural properties. The buffer includes a
100 foot building setback, a 50 foot parking lot setback, and landscaping with a five foot tall berm.
Although the proposed Light Manufacturing zoning district is not strictly consistent with the future land use
designation as stated in the Northpoint Small Area Plan, it is Staff’s opinion that the zoning amendment is
consistent with the intent of the plan for the following reasons:
1. The plan highlights the need for retail and service uses to serve the future employees of the area.
The Light Manufacturing district allows single-tenant retail and service uses, which would serve
the employees of the area.
2. The uses allowed in the Light Manufacturing District are required to be environmentally clean,
light industrial. Heavy manufacturing is not allowed in the Light Manufacturing zoning district.
3. The adopted mitigation measures to protect the existing AG properties, which is discussed in
Issue 2, below.
Issue 2: Adopted Mitigation Measures
The petition number PLNPCM2016-00788 was an amendment to Chapter 21A.28.020: M-1 Light
Manufacturing District. The amendment incorporated the addition of buffer yards for properties adjacent to
AG-2 and AG-5. These mitigation measures were adopted to ensure adequate buffering between future
commercial developments along 2200 West and the remaining agricultural zoning and uses. The current
application initially proposed amending the AG-2 to CG (General Commercial) zoning district. Staff
encouraged the applicant to amend the proposed CG (General Commercial) to M-1 (Light Manufacturing), to
accommodate the mitigation measures in the M-1 (Light Manufacturing) zoning district that were adopted in
2017.
The subject property is one of five properties that front 2200 West that are currently zoned AG-2. Additional,
properties zoned AG-2 are located adjacent to the subject property to the east. The existing mitigation
measures will be applied to the subject property, due to the proximity to AG-2 zoning.
DISCUSSION:
The proposal complies with the standards for zoning map amendments, see Attachment D. After analyzing
the proposal and the applicable standards, Planning Staff is of the opinion that a positive recommendation
should be forwarded to the City Council for this request.
NEXT STEPS:
The City Council has the final authority to make changes to the zoning map. The recommendation of the
Planning commission for this request will be forwarded to the City Council for their review and decision.

M-1 Light Manufacturing District: The purpose of the M-1 Light Manufacturing District is to
provide an environment for light industrial uses that produce no appreciable impact on adjacent
properties, that desire a clean attractive industrial setting, and that protects nearby sensitive lands
and waterways. This zone is appropriate in locations that are supported by the applicable Master Plan
policies adopted by the City. This district is intended to provide areas in the City that generate
employment opportunities and to promote economic development. The uses include other types of

ATTACHMENT G: ANALYSIS OF STANDARDS
ZONING MAP AMENDMENTS
21A.50.050: A decision to amend the text of this title or the zoning map by general amendment is a
matter committed to the legislative discretion of the city council and is not controlled by any one standard.
In making a decision to amend the zoning map, the City Council should consider the following:
Factor Finding Rationale
1. Whether a proposed map
amendment is consistent with
the purposes, goals,
objectives, and policies of the
city as stated through its
various adopted planning
documents;
Complies As stated in the Key Issues section of this
report, changing the zoning of the subject
property to M-1 is consistent with the
Northpoint Small Area Master Plan.
Staff is of the opinion that the proposal is
consistent with the intent of this master
plan. The regulations of the M-1 zoning
district were amended in 2017.
2. Whether a proposed map
amendment furthers the
specific purpose statements of
the zoning ordinance.
Complies Section 21A.02.030 of the Salt Lake city
Code provides the Purpose and Intent of
the Zoning Ordinance and states:
“The purpose of this title is to promote
the health, safety, morals, convenience,
order, prosperity and welfare of a
present and future inhabitants of Salt
Lake City, to implement the adopted
plans of the city, and to carry out the
purposes of the municipal land use
development and management act, title
10, chapter 9, of the Utah Code
Annotated or its successor, and other
relevant statutes.”
The purpose and intent statement then
provides eight additional points
describing the intent of the zoning code,
two of which are applicable to the rezone
proposal:
Protect the tax base
Foster the city’s industrial,
business and residential
development.
The purpose of amending the zoning of the
subject property is to maximize the
development potential by allowing more
land uses than allowed in the current zone
and expanding the development area of the
lots. This is consistent with the overall
purpose of the Zoning Ordinance in that it
promotes the “prosperity” of the “future
inhabitants of Salt Lake City.” It is also
consistent with the purpose and intent
points stated above.
3. The extent to which a proposed
map amendment will affect adjacent
properties;
Complies As discussed in the Key Issues section of
this report, the previous zoning
amendment, PLNPCM2016-00799 and
PLNPCM2016-00870, accommodated a
text amendment to provide for larger
buffer yards in the M-1 zoning district to
protect the existing agricultural uses.
Staff finds the existing M-1 development
standards appropriately buffers the
existing AG-2 properties.
4. Whether a proposed map
amendment is consistent with the
purposes and provisions of any
applicable overlay zoning districts
which may impose additional
standards
Complies The project area is partially located in the
Airport Flight Path Protection Zone A
and B. These overlay districts provides
special regulations that pertain to
building height and land use. In the event
that there is a conflict on a particular
property, the regulations in the overlay
district would prevail.
5. The adequacy of public
facilities and services
intended to serve the subject
property, including, but not
limited to, roadways, parks
and recreational facilities,
police and fire protection,
schools, storm water drainage
systems, water supplies, and
wastewater and refuse
collection.
Not
applicable.
At this
current time,
this standard
does not
apply.
The proposal is not tied directly to a
development request. The applicant has
suggested that future development would
incorporate a gas station and/or self-
storage units. However, at this time this
is reviewed as a zoning map amendment.
All requests for a new use would be
reviewed to ensure compliance with City
codes and policies.
ATTACHMENT H: PUBLIC PROCESS AND COMMENTS
A letter was mailed to residents and property owners within 300 of the subject property on
September 19, 2018. The letter provided early notification of the proposed zoning map amendment.
Additionally, early notification was emailed the Westpointe Community Council on September 19,
2018.
The Westpointe Community Council did not request a presentation or additional information from
staff or the applicant. Additionally, no public comments have been received.
ATTACHMENT I: DEPARTMENT REVIEW COMMENTS
The proposed zoning amendment was sent to the following City Departments/Divisions for review:
Building Services;
Engineering;
Public Utilities;
Transportation;
Sustainability;
Police;
And Real Estate Services.
There were no objections raised by any of the City Departments.
Additionally, notice was mailed to UDOT. UDOT’s response is attached.

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;
According to the Master plan and it’s map, this amendment is what the city would like to see
developed in the area for the property. Also to our understanding, 3 years ago an amendment from
the south end of this property all the way down to north temple was approved for M -1.
2. Whether a proposed map amendment furthers the specific purpose statements of the zoning ordinance;
The intention of the city in this area is to have M-1 Zoning according to the Master Plan, and we are
seeking the same M-1 zoning.
3. The extent to which a proposed map amendment will affect adjacent properties;
The property interacts with AG-2 and M-1 zones. The agreement with the AG-2 zones made 3 years
ago was an amendment to the verbiage in the zoning allowing a 10 ft buffer with AG-2 zone. The
affects of the zone interaction was addressed and resolved then. We will design our project
accordingly.
4. Whether a proposed map amendment is consistent with the purposes and provisions of any applicable
overlay zoning districts which may impose additional standards; and
Everything as far as our knowledge is in accordance with all overlays and near future overlays.
5. The adequacy of public facilities and services intended to serve the subject property, including, but not
limited to, roadways, parks and recreational facilities, police and fire protection, schools, storm water drainage
