Thriving in PlaceMayor’s Office
As a Community Outreach Team, we recognize that not all of
our Community Councils, Officially Recognized Organizations
and Boards & Commissions reflect all of our city. As Mayor’s
Office staff, we want to play a positive role in getting people
excited about working with this administration. We need
minoritized community groups and leaders of those groups
to share civic opportunities that shape neighborhoods, so
that we can better serve. Engagement isn’t about agreement,
but rather it's about involvement!
Some connections we really highlight:

Council Questions
•How often/when through the day is the daily bed count updated? Is the
dashboard updated after hours?
•During a code blue is enforcement of vehicle parking halted? Is there a
difference between a car someone sleeps in and an RV?
•Is Youth VOA full, including additional beds city allowed via TLUR?
•When the youth facility is full, where can kids or families with kids go?
•Is the phone number on the daily bed count staffed 24/7? If not, how can
people call for help after hours?
•Is there an approved place for people to park with RVs or cars during code
blue?
•Some Council Members heard that the funds are delayed because of
contracting issues. Is this correct? Is there a status update and timeline to
make the funds available for use?
•The Road Home’s infographic for this item identified 24/7 access to
emergency shelter at the Midvale Family Resource Center and that
transportation including mileage is reflected in the cost estimates. What is the
best contact info for homeless families to get transportation to the Midvale
Family Resource Center 24/7?I understand that sometimes police officers
and/or mitigation team members could provide transportation during Code
Blue / Red periods.
•Have any other entities contributed funding to date? The total cost to meet
the need was estimated at about $1 million.
•Families are considered couples, a single parent with children, and parents
with children, correct?

801-535-7236 or eric.daems@slcgov.com
DOCUMENT TYPE: Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION: The City Council amend the zoning map as recommended by the
Planning Commission.
BUDGET IMPACT: None
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: Tyler Morris, the applicant representing the property owner,
submitted a petition for a Zoning Map Amendment for the properties located at 2260, 2270, and
2290 E. 1300 South. The properties are currently zoned R-1-7000, which is a single-family
residential zone. The petition is to rezone the properties to CB- Community Business. The CB
zone allows for a wider range of land uses including multi-family, commercial, retail, and
restaurants. The request did not require a master plan amendment.
At this point, the applicant has not provided a development plan for the properties. However, it is
anticipated they would be developed in junction with adjoining properties to the south and would
be used for multi-family housing or a mixed-use development.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY
TO:City Council Members
FROM:Brian Fullmer
Policy Analyst
DATE:January 16, 2024
RE: Avenues Restrictive Covenant
The Council will be briefed about a proposal to remove a restrictive covenant from 18 properties located
primarily between B Street and D Street and between 9th Avenue and 11th Avenue in City Council District
Three, as shown in the image below. (Please note the property at 390 D Street in the lower right corner of
the image is one of the affected parcels.)
The covenant was discovered by Planning staff when the owner of 453 North C Street applied for a lot
consolidation with the intent of constructing an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) on their property. While
reviewing the restrictive covenant, Planning staff found it also applied to 17 other properties in the area.
Planning then consulted with the City Attorney’s Office and decided to work toward removing the
restriction from all 18 properties.
This covenant was established in 1981 as part of closing a portion of 8th Avenue for LDS Hospital
expansion. At the time, the Greater Avenues Community Council (GACC) would not oppose the street
vacation if these other properties, owned by the hospital at the time, were subjected to a restrictive
covenant ensuring they would be limited to single-family, two-family, or other uses that conformed to R-2
zoning then in effect. When the restrictive covenant was recorded, R-2 zoning prohibited ADUs that could
be used as a dwelling. (The properties were later zoned to SR-1A as part of the 1995 comprehensive zoning
rewrite.) Each subject property is privately owned, and Planning staff believes the covenant’s intent has
been satisfied. Planning recommends the Council remove the restrictive covenants from all
the affected properties.
This is an uncommon land use item Council Members likely have not seen before. It will follow the pattern
of most other land use items before the Council, with a briefing, public hearing, and then a vote on an
Item Schedule:

ordinance to remove the restrictive covenant. The Planning Commission is not required to review the
proposal and hold a public hearing. Council staff asked the Chair and Vice Chair if they prefer to have the
Planning Commission review. They felt that was not necessary.
Goal of the briefing: Review the proposed restrictive covenant removal and determine if the Council
supports moving forward with the proposal.

POLICY QUESTION
1. The Council may wish to discuss whether to remove the restrictive covenant from all 18 affected
properties or just those with property owners who are supportive. It is worth noting that if the
restrictive covenant is not removed from some properties, future owners wishing to remove it will
need to initiate the process for their property.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Planning staff were unable to find correspondence from 1979 detailing the agreement, but the City
Recorder’s Office found a 1979 letter from GACC related to the 8th Avenue closure. The letter noted a loss of
44 homes as part of the hospital expansion. Planning staff believes it is likely that the restrictive covenant
was intended to prevent further loss of single-family homes in the area and replace them with more intense
land uses. The letter is included in Exhibit 3 (pages 34-35) of the City Council transmittal.
The following uses are allowed in the SR-1A zone provided they meet applicable zoning requirements but
are prohibited by the restrictive covenants:
•Accessory dwelling unit (permitted)
•Assisted living facility (2-5 individuals) (conditional)
•Congregate care facility (conditional)
•Group home (conditional)
•Community garden (conditional)
•Urban farm (permitted)
•Daycare center (conditional)
•In-home daycare (conditional)
GACC is listed as an interested party in the restrictive covenant, so it must also vote to remove its interest.
Planning staff met with the community council on September 13 and October 4, 2023 to discuss the
removal. GACC voted to release its interest in the covenant at its November 1, 2023 meeting, and a letter
noting the release was sent to Planning after the transmittal was received in the Council Office. The letter is
attached to this report.
Planning staff sent notice to all affected property owners letting them know about the covenant and its
potential removal. A 45-day comment period was provided, after which Planning staff would begin the
process of requesting removal of the covenant. The notice stated if responses were not received, Planning
staff would proceed with the covenant removal based on a presumption that the property owners did not
object.
Planning received four individual responses from property owners and participated in a call with multiple
property owners. Three of the individuals who responded were supportive of removing the restrictive
covenant, and one was opposed. That owner is against removing the covenant due to insufficient space to
construct an ADU on their property. Although more than one owner expressed support on the phone call,
Planning felt only the caller should be recorded as supportive.

SUBJECT: Avenues Restrictive Covenant
STAFF CONTACT: Krissy Gilmore, Senior Planner, kristina.gilmore@slcgov.com, 801-535-
7780
DOCUMENT TYPE: Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION: Remove the restrictive covenant from the affected properties.
BUDGET IMPACT: None
BACKGROUND:
In April 2023 the property owner at 453 N C Street applied for a Lot Consolidation with the
intention of constructing an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) in the rear yard. During the review
process, Planning Staff examined a restrictive covenant applied to their property and 17 other
properties, which prohibits the construction of detached ADUs. After considering the implications
for all 18 affected properties, Planning Staff consulted with the Attorney’s Office and decided to
pursue the removal of the restriction simultaneously for all properties instead of addressing them
individually.
DISCUSSION:
The restrictive covenant (Exhibit 2) was established in 1981 as part of the street closure of 8th Avenue
for the expansion of LDS Hospital (Ordinance 40 of 1981). As part of the street closure, as described
in the restrictive covenant, the Greater Avenues Community Council agreed it would not oppose the

AS

street vacation if other LDS Hospital owned properties
were subjected to a restrictive covenant guaranteeing
their continued residential use in conformity with the R-
2 zoning district that was in effect at that time. In 1995
during the City’s comprehensive zoning rewrite, the
affected properties were rezoned from R-2 to SR-1A.
Although Planning Staff was unable to locate the
specific correspondence from 1979 that outlined this
agreement, the City Recorder's Office found a separate
letter related to the closure of 8th Avenue from the
Greater Avenues Community Council regarding the
Historic Revolving Loan Fund (see Exhibit 3). This
letter provides some insight into the rationale behind the
request for the restrictive covenant. It explains that the
neighborhood would lose a total of 44 homes due to the
expansion of the hospital, and it is likely that they wanted to prevent further deterioration of the
neighborhood by imposing the restrictive covenant.
The restrictive covenant was primarily focused on limiting allowed uses. The list below shows the uses
currently allowed in the SR-1A zone that are prohibited due to the restrictive covenant. It is important
to note that just because a use is allowed, it does not mean that the properties will have a right to that
use. They must still meet the applicable zoning requirements associated with those specific uses and the
SR-1A zone.
-Accessory Dwelling Unit (permitted)
-Dwelling, Assisted Living Facility with limited capacity (2-5 individuals) (conditional)
-Dwelling, Congregate Care Facility (conditional)
-Dwelling, Group Home (conditional)
-Community Garden (conditional)
-Urban Farm (permitted)
-Daycare Center (conditional)
-In-home Daycare (permitted)
Because the properties are no longer owned by LDS Hospital, it seems the intent of the covenant
has been satisfied, which was likely to prevent them from either developing as part of the hospital
or selling to commercial use to support the hospital. Additionally, considering the adoption of the
ADU ordinance, which permits ADUs in the SR-1A zone, Planning Staff believes it may be
appropriate to remove the restriction. When the restrictive covenant was created, Salt Lake City
may not have anticipated that ADUs would be permitted in the future.
Map of the affected properties. See Exhibit 1 for a
larger scale map.
While SR-1A does permit, either by-right or through the conditional use process, some uses that
may have a commercial aspect, Planning Staff is of the opinion that the SR-1A zone aligns with
the intended purpose of the restrictive covenant to ensure residential use and low impact uses.
However, the Council may consider implementing a new restriction that prohibits the properties
from being rezoned to higher density zones or primarily commercial zoning districts to address
any concerns.
Greater Avenues Community Council Review
The Greater Avenues Community Council is listed as an interested party in the restrictive
covenant, and therefore, they must also vote to remove their interest in the covenant for it to be
effective. Planning Staff met with the GACC on September 13 and October 4, 2023 to discuss the
matter. The GACC ultimately voted to release their interest in the restrictive covenant at their
November 1, 2023 meeting.
Property Owner Notice
On May 24th Planning Staff sent a notice to all affected properties making them aware of the
covenant. The notice provided a 45-day comment period, after which Planning Staff would begin
the process of requesting the removal of the covenant. The notice stated that if we did not receive
a response, staff would move forward with the removal of the covenant based on the presumption
that the property owners had no objection.
Staff received responses from four property owners. Three in support of the removal (321 E 10th
Avenue, 267/271 9th Avenue, and 453 N C Street), and one against the removal. One call included
multiple property owners on the line, however, Planning Staff only feels comfortable stating that
the actual caller should be recorded as in support. The property owner at 339 E 10th Avenue is
against the removal due to zoning restrictions that would prohibit an ADU on their property.

Gentlemen:
The Greater Avenues Community Council respectfully requests that time
be scheduled during the January 2, 1980 hearing before you on the closure of
8th Avenue between C and D Streets, to present a related a compensatory petition.
Our Council has agreed to not oppose the closure of this street in exchange
for the guarantees offered by Intermountain Health Care which were enumerated
before you on December 19. Should you actually decide to close that street
there still remains a considerably important, unresolved detail.
The closure of 8th Avenue constitutes, in actuality, the sale of publicly-
owned property, to the benefit of a privately-owned institutio~The sale not
only constitutes a loss to Avenues' residents of the benefits derived from
the property, but the future institutional use of the property brings with it
a serious, negative impact on the Avenues Community.
We have already experienced many recent intrusions on our neighborhood.
Without belaboring the point, we mention the following losses:
Block Location Demolition PurEose
101 7th s 8th, B s e 7 homes Construction of Parking
Terrace
102 7th & 8th, e & D 12 homes Parking Lot
122 8th s 9th, D & E 5 homes Parking Lot
130 9th & 10th, c & D 10 homes Parking Lot
130 9th s 10th, C & D 10 homes Doctors Clinic
44 home total
As you can see this adds up to a loss of 44 homes to the purpose of
hospital expansion. The rezoning to RH and R2A of blocks 122 and 124 (to the
immediate west and east of the main hospital) will eventually bring the demoltion
of another 14 homes, for a total of 58. In addition, the closure of 8th Avenue
and the construction of a new hospital facility on Block 102 will mean the
demolition of 9 more homes--homes which we have requested be preserved, in front
of the new facility. We have been denied consideration for their preservation.
This, ;hen, adds up to a grand total of 67 homes.
The main point is that not only has the neighborhood sustained major losses
in the past, but that the sale of the 8th Avenue property for hospital use
•entails further neighborhood deterioration, and that this deterioration is a result
of the disposition of an asset that belongs to that neighborhood. In all
fai:rness the proceeds deriving from that sale ought to be used in a way which
would offer some compensation to that neighborhood for its loss ..
I
b o
...
We therefore petition the Commission to set up an Avenues' Captial •
Improvements and Neighborhood Preservation Fund to be created with the
proceeds from the sale of 8th Avenue. The fund would be used in two ways.
First, there have already been many attempts to acquire a revolving
fund specifically for purposes of historic preservation. This fund could
serve that purpose as well as the purpose of neighborhood preservation. When
homes are threatened, there would be an available source of revenue to secure
the endangered properties, attach preservation covenants to them, and
resell the properties on the open market.
Second, a portion of the money could be made available as a Capital
Improvements fund. We suggest that the major item needed is that of
hillside preservation.
Hopefully, the creation of a fund for these purposes will not only
help with needed improvements for the neighborhood, but will also contribute
to continuing good Neighborhood-Hospital relations.
Sincerely, /\
I ! \}~~.

EXHIBIT 4) Property Owner Notice
NOTIFICATION OF A REQUEST
AFFECTING YOUR PROPERTY
May 24, 2023
RESPONSE REQUESTED
Dear Property Owner,
We would like to bring to your
attention a Restrictive
Covenant that has recently
come to the attention of Salt
Lake City Planning Staff. This
covenant affects your
property, as well as seventeen
others indicated on the map to
the right. The Restrictive
Covenant was recorded on
your property in 1981 and was
associated with the street
closure of 8th Avenue between
C and D Streets.
The covenant restricts the land
uses to those permitted in the
R-2 (Single and Two Family
Residential) zoning district in
effect in 1981. It is important
to note that in 1995, the city
conducted a comprehensive
revision of the zoning code, resulting in the rezoning of your property from R-2 to SR-1A
(Special Development Pattern Residential). Your property is currently subject to all the
restrictions imposed by the SR-1A zone, as well as any land use restrictions that existed
in the 1981 R-2 zone.
The most significant implication of this restriction is that you are prohibited from
constructing a detached accessory dwelling unit, due to the strict limitations found in
the 1981 R-2 zoning.
Planning Staff received interest from at least one affected property owner regarding the
removal of this restriction. To streamline the process, we would like to request the City
Council's consideration for the simultaneous removal of the restriction on all affected
properties.
The purpose of this notice is to inform you of the restriction and to inquire about your
preferred course of action for the removal of the restrictive covenant from your
property. Please contact me, Krissy Gilmore, at Kristina.Gilmore@slcgov.com or
801-535-7780 before July 8, 2023. After this date, we will begin processing the
request and schedule a briefing with the City Council. Subsequently, the City Council
will arrange a follow-up meeting to vote on the matter.
If we do not receive a response from you, we will assume that you agree to
include your property in the application for the removal of the restrictive
covenant.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Krissy Gilmore
Senior Planner
Salt Lake City Planning Division

EXHIBIT 5) Ordinance for Removal
SALT LAKE CITY ORDINANCE
No. _____ of 202_
(Relinquishing Salt Lake City’s interests in restrictive covenants on certain real property)
An ordinance relinquishing Salt Lake City’s interests as a beneficiary of restrictive
covenants on certain real property related to Ordinance 40 of 1981.
WHEREAS, In January 1980, the Salt Lake City Council (“City Council”) heard a
petition by Intermountain Health Care, Inc. (“IHC”) to close a portion of 8th Avenue between C
and D Streets to for IHC to acquire that portion of right-of-way to accommodate expansion of its
LDS Hospital property; and
WHEREAS, at the time, IHC owned 18 residential parcels adjacent to the hospital
property (the “Affected Properties”); and
WHEREAS, concerns were raised by property owners in the nearby community as well
as by the Greater Avenues Community Council concerning IHC’s expansion efforts that
residential dwellings had already been lost to prior LDS Hospital expansion and that further
expansion could result in additional loss of dwellings; and
WHEREAS, on May 19, 1981, the City Council passed Ordinance 40 of 1981, which
closed a portion of 8th Avenue between C and D Streets, but retained ownership thereof until
terms of a deed conveying the portion of right-of-way could be agreed upon; and
WHEREAS, the City Council made Ordinance 40 of 1981 effective 30 days following
publication of that ordinance; and
WHEREAS, to satisfy the requirements of the City Council and the wishes of the Greater
Avenues Community Council, IHC recorded a restrictive covenant (the “Restrictive Covenant”)
against the Affected Properties on September 18, 1981 (Salt Lake County Recorder Entry No.
3608995) in favor of Salt Lake City and the Greater Avenues Community Council, which
restrictive covenant limited the use of the Affected Properties to only single-family dwellings,
two-family dwellings, and any other uses allowed in the R-2 zoning district at that time; and
WHEREAS, in 1995, the City Council adopted a comprehensive amendment of the city’s
land use regulations, which effort also rezoned the Affected Properties from R-2 Single- and
Two-Family Residential District to SR-1A Special Development Pattern Residential District; and
WHEREAS, at the time the Restrictive Covenant was recorded, the R-2 Single- and Two-
Family Residential District prohibited accessory dwelling structures that could be used as a
dwelling; and
WHEREAS, in recent years, the City Council has amended Title 21A of the Salt Lake
City Code to allow accessory dwelling units in residential districts, including both the R-2
Single- and Two-Family Residential District and SR-1A Special Development Pattern
Residential District; and
WHERAS, IHC no longer owns any of the Affected Properties; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the purposes of the Restrictive Covenant are no
longer necessary and the R-2 use restrictions applicable in 1981 have become inimical to the
city’s goals and policies in furtherance of creating more housing opportunities; and
WHEREAS, after a public hearing on this matter the City Council has determined that
adopting this ordinance is in the city’s best interests.
NOW, THEREFORE, be it ordained by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah:
SECTION 1. Relinquishing the City’s Interests in the Restrictive Covenants. The City
Council hereby declares the Restrictive Covenants no longer necessary and hereby relinquishes
Salt Lake City’s interests in the Restrictive Covenants. Recording this Ordinance against the
Affected Properties in the Salt Lake County Recorder’s Office shall be evidence of the city’s
forfeiture of rights in the Restrictive Covenants.
SECTION 2. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall become effective on the date of its
first publication.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY
TO: City Council Members
FROM: Allison Rowland
Budget & Policy Analyst
DATE: January 16, 2024
RE: ORDINANCE: COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND TENANT DISPLACEMENT AMENDMENTS
ISSUE AT-A-GLANCE
The Council will consider a package of ordinance changes that aim to prevent the loss of existing affordable
housing and counteract tenant displacement, as recommended in the Thriving in Place plan, which was adopted
by the Council last fall. These changes would apply in relatively narrow situations: when proposed new
developments seek zoning amendments or amendments to the City’s General Plan. In these cases, ordinance
changes would require that applicants:
choose to either replace any housing units destroyed or compensate the City for
their loss; and
provide additional “community benefits” to ensure that developments enabled by
zoning changes add value to the broader community.
The proposed changes would also establish a tenant relocation assistance program, establish a new section in
City Code to define “general plan,” and amend several existing zoning ordinances. The addition of a proposed
general plan ordinance would help guide the Planning Commission and City Council as they review zoning
petitions that exceed the recommended densities outlined in community plans. These policy changes would not
apply to developments that conform with existing master plans.
The Planning Commission was briefed on the proposed changes on October 11, 2023, and held a public hearing
on November 8. The Commission provided a positive recommendation on the proposed amendments, adding
two recommendations which the Planning Division incorporated into its proposal for the Council.
Goal of the briefing: Discuss and consider an ordinance to establish a General Plan section in Salt Lake City
ordinance and amend several zoning ordinances related to “community benefits” and tenant displacement.
Item Schedule:
Briefing: January 16, 2024
Public Hearing: February 20, 2024
Potential Action: March 5, 2024
Page | 2
ADDITIONAL AND BACKGROUND INFORMATION
A. Background. The Council adopted the Thriving in Place plan on October 17, 2023. The goal of the plan
was to identify policy measures that can help residents remain in Salt Lake City during the current period of
rapid growth and change. As the plan noted, implementation of it will require:
• ordinance changes,
• adopting alternatives to the existing Housing Loss Mitigation ordinance,
• ongoing State-level advocacy,
• new community partnerships, and
• significant budget and staffing increases.
When the Council adopted the Thriving in Place plan, it requested the Administration address the following
priorities in the plan with special urgency and inform the Council of updated estimates for significant
milestones for them by December 1, 2023. Some of these priorities would be addressed at least partially
through the proposed ordinance changes discussed in this staff report. The priorities the Council selected
for this request are the following:
• Develop a Tenant Relocation Assistance Program;
• Improve and Expand Tenant Resources and Services;
• Acquire and Rehabilitate Unsubsidized Housing;
• Utilize Publicly Owned Property;
• Develop New Funding Sources and Leverage Existing Resources; and,
• Define Displacement Indicators and Develop Data Systems.
B. Policy Changes Related to the Thriving in Place Plan. Council adoption of these ordinances would
pave the way for several new City policies which aim to mitigate involuntary displacement caused by new
development. These policies would affect the process that occurs when a property owner requests an
amendment to the City’s general plan or zoning ordinance, and they would be particularly important when
property owners submit zoning map amendments that exceed recommended community plan densities
within a general plan. The ordinance changes proposed by the Administration would affect Titles 18, 19, and
21 of Salt Lake City Code. Specific information on the places in code where these changes would occur can
be found in section C, below. The major policy goals of these changes are discussed here.
As noted during the Council’s consideration of Thriving in Place, implementation of the policies referred
to in the proposed ordinances may require additional staff and resources. Would the Council like to
request the Administration provide cost estimates for the implementation of these
policies before the scheduled public hearing date (February 20)?
Replacement of Demolished Housing Units. If a development amendment request entails
demolition of one or more housing units, the petitioner would be required to provide replacement
dwellings with the same number of bedrooms within the new development. The developer would
have two options for meeting this requirement:
a. including the corresponding replacement dwellings in the development and limiting
their annual rental rate increases to no more than 3% for a period of 20 years; or
b. proposing a payment to the City’s housing fund in lieu of the rental restriction on new
affordable units. The developer’s payment would need to equal the amount of each
affordable unit’s rental rate (prior to demolition) multiplied by the number of months
that pass before the City issues a new Certificate of Occupancy. The example cited by the
Page | 3
Planning Division in the transmittal is: If the unit rent is $1,000 per month prior to
demolition and it takes 36 months for replacement unit to be completed, the payment
would be $36,000.
Comments from developers to-date suggest that most prefer option b, above.
The Council may wish to ask the Administration how the maximum annual
rental rate increase of 3% over 20 years was selected.
Tenant Relocation Assistance. Another aspect of the proposed ordinance changes would
require tenant relocation assistance to help renters cover the cost of relocating if they are
displaced by new development. The Planning Division envisions this as a transaction between
private parties, which existing planners can oversee without adding new staff. The proposal for a
new tenant relocation assistance program includes the following:
• Up to $1,500 in moving expenses.
• Replacement housing application fees.
• Deposit fees for the new place of residence.
• Rental assistance payment of the difference between the cost of the monthly rent of the
demolished unit and a comparable unit. The total amount would not exceed $7,200.
The property owner may propose to relocate the tenant to another property owned by them,
provided the rent rate is the same as in the existing unit and no fees or deposits are charged.
The Council may wish to ask for additional details about proposed Tenant
Relocation Assistance. For example:
o How would City planners ensure that all developers provide reasonable
opportunity for tenants to take advantage of relocation reimbursements?
What would constitute “reasonable opportunity”?
o Should the amounts offered to displaced residents be fixed in ordinance
or tied to changes in some commonly used indicator? For example,
annual changes to these amounts might be tied to changes to the
Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) annual income
limits.
New Community Benefit Policy. The proposed ordinance changes would also include a new
policy requiring developers who seek a general plan zoning amendment to provide one or more
broader “community benefits” in return. As distinct from the “public benefit” analyses which are
required in some cases by State law, these “community benefits” would not require an
independent analysis. Instead, the applicant would need to demonstrate to Planning Division
staff, the Planning Commission, and ultimately the Council, that: 1. the proposed community
benefit would not be available without the amendment; and 2. the developer’s own gains from
providing this community benefit (for example, rent received by adding affordable housing units
beyond the minimums required) would not outweigh the broader community’s gains. The
proposed “menu” of potential community benefits are:
c. Providing housing that aligns with the current or future needs of the community as
determined by the general plan. Needs could include the level of affordability in excess of
the number of dwellings that exist on the site, size in terms of number of bedrooms, or
availability of housing for purchase.
Page | 4
d. Providing commercial space for local businesses or charitable organizations.
e. Providing a dedication of public open space.
f. Providing a dedication or other legal form of protection from future development of land
that is adjacent to a river, creek, wetland, floodplain, wildlife habitat, or natural lands.
g. Preserving historic structures.
h. Expanding public infrastructure that expands capacity for future development.
The proposed ordinance also includes language intended to ensure that the community benefit
offered is proportional to the size of the increase in development capacity. In other words, small
changes to development capacity would require small community benefits, and larger changes
would require large benefits. The Planning Division suggests that a precise balance between
community benefits and developer benefits is largely situation-dependent, so it would be difficult
to provide a precise generic metric to use for these evaluations. Factors to consider that are
proposed for this purpose include:
• the appropriateness of the proposed community benefit in relation to the increase in
development potential;
• strategies included to counter displacement and its effects;
• public input; and,
• the probable impacts on City services and infrastructure.
Compliance with the terms of any community benefit would be secured through a development
agreement between the City and the property owners.
New Data Collection. The proposed ordinance changes include the requirement that applicants
for General Plan changes provide rental cost data and information on the size of each unit, which
would allow the Planning Division to track and analyze displacement. This data also would be
used to determine whether units to be demolished fall within affordability guidelines, which
would help track the loss of affordable or “naturally occurring” affordable housing.
C. Specific Ordinance Changes. The proposed zoning amendments would enact a new ordinance, Title 19,
and change parts of existing Titles 18 and 21A of City Code. These changes are designed to complement one
another and ensure that all proposed General Plan amendments are evaluated using the same process and
similar standards.
Title 19: General Plan. This proposed new section of ordinance defines what a general plan is,
what contents are required for general plans, and when a general plan amendment is required. It
also includes the policies discussed in section B, above, and addresses the following topics:
i. It identifies Plan Salt Lake, or its successor, as the key reference for establishing the
purpose and goals of the general plan. It states that “All other elements that collectively
comprise the city’s general plan shall identify how the plan aligns with Plan Salt Lake
and establish specific policies to achieve the purpose and goals of the general plan.”
j. It identifies requirements for private petitioners who seek a general plan amendment
and the City’s process for evaluating a petition. It also specifies how development
agreements with the City may be applied to these petitions.
Page | 5
k. It lists the requirements for Mayor- or Council-initiated petitions that propose new
general plans or comprehensive updates and amendments to existing general plans.
l. It expands the factors that the Planning Commission and the City Council should
consider when reviewing a general plan or zoning amendment. Those include specific
factors to help evaluate the impacts of a request based on proximity to amenities and
services, the potential effects on City services, and the possibility of displacing residents
and businesses.
Does the Council want to add more details to the public process for reviewing
General Plan amendments, including identifying the stage in the process at
which the Council should provide feedback?
Would the Council like to incorporate references to the process that is
outlined in Resolution 14 of 2020 (see Attachment C1)?
Title 21A.50: Zoning Amendments. This section would be amended to apply community
benefit and displacement requirements to zoning amendments. The changes to 21A.50 reflect the
changes to included Title 19.
Title 18.97: Mitigation of Residential Housing Loss. The existing ordinance would be
deleted and replaced with the community benefit policy in Title 19 General Plans and Title 21A.50
amendments. Replacement of demolished housing would be addressed through the new
requirements in Title 19 and in 21A.50.
Title 18.64.050: Residential Demolition Provisions. Removal of Title 18.97 (above) would
trigger amendments to the demolition requirements in Title 18.64.050: Residential Demolition
Provisions. For consistency, this section would be amended to ensure that if housing is
demolished it is replaced with housing units of similar rental rate and unit size.
Pending: New Ordinance on Parking Lots. The Planning Division stated, “A separate
upcoming ordinance proposal will prohibit expansions or new commercial parking lots that
involve the demolition of a dwelling.”
D. Public Engagement. Beginning in July 2023, Planning Division and other CAN (Department of
Community and Neighborhoods) staff organized meetings with the Recognized Community Organizations,
established a project website, and used their listserv to inform the public of the proposed ordinance changes
and receive their comments and questions. In addition, three in-person open houses were held in late
summer and fall at three sites across the City, and the Mayor’s Office hosted two roundtable meetings with
developers. The transmittal notes that:
“The development community raised concerns regarding the rental rate
restriction on replacement units (proposed at no more than a 3% increase
per year for 20 years). Their concern centered on cost implications and the
unpredictability of such an extended timeframe. Multiple comments
indicated a preference for an upfront fee as an alternative approach. This
preference was both a desire to enhance cost predictability and to allocate
the fee toward providing assistance to a greater number of people facing
displacement. As a result, the draft was modified to allow a payment option
in addition to the rental rate restriction option.”

POLICY QUESTIONS
1. The Council may wish to discuss the concern raised by the development community
during the Administration’s public engagement regarding a preference for an upfront fee
rather than a rental rate restriction on replacement units.
2. The Council may wish to discuss with the Administration where these requirements
would likely be triggered, since some recent changes to the City’s zoning ordinance
increase development flexibility without triggering a rezone. The Council may wish to
brainstorm options with the Administration if the preference is for these requirements to
be triggered in more development and redevelopment scenarios.

SUBJECT: General Plan and Zoning Amendments (Community Benefit and Tenant
Displacement Ordinance)
STAFF CONTACT: Krissy Gilmore, Senior Planner, Kristina.Gilmore@slcgov.com, 801-535-
7780
DOCUMENT TYPE: Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION: The City Council amend the text of the zoning ordinance as
recommended by the Planning Commission.
BUDGET IMPACT: None. However, implementation of the amendments may require
additional staff and resources.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: This city-initiated petition is intended to implement policies
identified in Thriving in Place to mitigate involuntary displacement due to development pressure. The
proposed amendments are intended to prompt growth to benefit the community, prevent loss of
naturally occurring affordable housing, and counteract displacement of current tenants. The updates
include the creation of a new Title 19 General Plans and amendments to Title 21A.50 Amendments.
Additionally, Title 18.97 Mitigation of Residential Housing Loss will be deleted and replaced with the
community benefit policy in Title 19 General Plans and Title 21A.50 Amendments. Title 18.64.050
Residential Demolition Provisions will also be amended to include provisions to ensure that
replacement of housing units that have a similar rent and unit size if housing is demolished.
PROPOSAL:
rachel otto (Dec 6, 2023 09:46 MST)12/06/2023
12/06/2023
1) Title 19: General Plans
This proposal creates a new “Title 19
General Plans” which is the first such
ordinance in the history of the city.
The creation of Title 19 aims to
establish clear and objective criteria
for determining the necessity of
general amendments, particularly in
cases where property owners submit
zoning map amendments exceeding
recommended community plan
densities within the general plan. It
also outlines the required
components for the general plan.
In situations where an amendment is
likely to lead to the demolition of
housing, Title 19 would require relocation assistance for displaced tenants and may necessitate
property owners to replace demolished dwellings. In addition, Title 19 includes a community benefit
policy, compelling property owners to provide benefits to the community when making a request for a
general plan amendment.
Title 19 also expands the factors that the Planning Commission and City Council should consider when
reviewing a general plan or zoning amendment. This includes specific language on evaluating the
impacts of a request based on proximity to amenities and services, potential effects on city services, and
the possibility of displacing residents and businesses.
2) 21A:50 Amendments
Chapter 21A.50 is proposed to be amended to include the same community benefit and displacement
requirements to apply to text and zoning map amendments. The community benefit and tenant
displacement sections will be similar in both Title 19 General Plans and in Title 21A.50 Amendments
to ensure that all amendments being considered are using the same process and similar standards. This
will help avoid discretionary decisions regarding the amendment process and establish an equitable
process for the applicants, the city, the community, and all stakeholders.
3) Title 18: Buildings and Construction/ Housing Loss Mitigation
Changes to Title 18.97 Mitigation of Residential Housing Loss are also proposed. As part of the
proposed changes, Title 18.97 will be deleted, and housing loss mitigation will be addressed through
one of these methods:
• Title 19 General Plans (New Requirement): Requires a public benefit, tenant relocation
assistance, and replacement of a demolished dwelling with a unit of similar bedroom count and
rental rate.
• Create a new Title 19: General Plans that defines what
a general plan is, the required plan contents, and when a plan
amendment is required.
• Require a community benefit analysis for zoning or
general plan amendments submitted by a property owner.
• Require the replacement of demolished housing units
at a similar rent prior to demolition or a payment to the city.
• Establish a tenant relocation assistance policy.
• Establish new review factors for considering zoning and
plan amendments related to displacement.
• Require data on displacement to be collected with
zoning and plan amendments.
• 21A.50: Zoning Amendments (Replacing Existing Requirement from Title 18.97): Requires a
public benefit, tenant relocation assistance, and replacement of a demolished dwelling with a
unit of similar bedroom count and rental rate.
• Prohibition on expansions or new commercial parking lots that involve the demolition of a
dwelling. This is being done as a separate proposal and is independent of this proposal.
• Removing Title 18.97 also triggers amendments to the demolition requirements in Title
18.64.050 Residential Demolition Provisions. Due to the removal of Title 18.97, Title 18.64.050
needs to be amended to ensure consistency in regulations.
4) Community Benefit Policy
The community benefit policy requires property owners to provide a community benefit when making
a request for a general plan or zoning amendment. The policy includes specific criteria to evaluate the
community benefit. Applicants are required to provide one or more of the following community
benefits, along with demonstrating that the benefit would not otherwise be available without the
proposed amendment:
• Housing: Provision of affordable or family-sized housing.
• Dedication of Publicly Accessible Open Space: Dedication of open spaces accessible to the
public.
• Preservation of Critical Lands: Conservation or restoration of critical lands such as wetlands,
river corridors, or wildlife habitats.
• Historic Building Preservation: Safeguarding historic structures not already protected against
demolition.
• Support for Local Businesses: Inclusion of space for small businesses and charitable
organizations within a development.
• Expansion of Public Infrastructure: Enhancement of public infrastructure beyond what's
necessary for future development.
The proposed amendment includes 11 factors that the Planning Commission and City Council should
consider when evaluating a suggested community benefit. These factors include assessing the
appropriateness of the proposed community benefit in relation to the increase in development
potential, potential strategies to counter displacement and its effects, and the probable impacts on city
services and infrastructure. Any community benefit that is required as a condition of approval of the
amendment(s) would be secured through a Development Agreement.
5) Replacement of Demolished Housing Units
Thriving in Place identifies the loss of naturally occurring affordable housing units as a concern that is
being experienced in the city. To address this concern, if a proposed privately initiated general plan or
zoning amendment is likely to result in the demolition of a housing unit, the City Council may require
the petitioner to provide replacement of the dwelling within the new development at the same number
of bedrooms. The applicant would choose to either limit the rental rate on the replacement dwelling to
no more than a 3% annual increase on the rental rate for a period of 20 years, or they could make a
payment to the city in lieu of the rental rate restriction. The payment would be calculated by taking the
unit rent prior to demolition and multiplying it by the number of months until a new Certificate of
Occupancy is issued. For example, if the unit rent is $1,000 per month prior to demolition and it takes
36 months for replacement unit to completed, the payment would be $36,000.
6) Tenant Relocation Assistance
Tenant relocation assistance would help renters cover the cost of relocating when they are displaced by
new development. The relocation assistance would include the following:
• Up to $1500 in moving expenses.
• Replacement housing application fees.
• Deposit fees for the new place of residence.
• Rental assistance payment of the difference between the cost of the monthly rent of the
demolished unit and a comparable unit. The total amount to not exceed $7,200.
The property owner may propose to relocate the tenant to an alternative property that they also own.
If this occurs, the tenant would not be eligible to receive payment for application fees or deposit.
7) Standards for General Plan and Zoning Amendments
The current consideration factors for general plan or zoning amendments do not address potential
tenant displacement or the loss of affordable housing. Both proposed draft amendments to Title 19 and
21A.50 include new review factors that address these concerns. The goal of creating new consideration
factors is to provide a clear and detailed analysis of the impact of the requested amendment to decision-
makers.
8) Data Collection
Thriving in Place also identified a need for the collection of rental cost data for the purposes of analyzing
displacement. This data is crucial to understand whether the demolished unit is considered affordable,
and to track the loss of affordable or naturally occurring affordable housing. The city does not currently
have a method of collecting this information from building permits or planning applications. To
address this void of information, the amendments include more robust submittal requirements when
making a general plan or zoning amendment application that include current information on housing
unit rent and size.
PUBLIC PROCESS:
The following is a list of public meetings that have been held, and other public input opportunities,
related to the proposed project since the application was initiated:
• July 20, 2023 – Planning Staff and Community and Neighborhoods Division representatives
met with the Recognized Organization chairs to brief them on the proposal.
• August 31, 2023 – The project website was published and an email notification regarding the
project was sent out to the Planning Division’s listserv.
•September 5, 2023 – Recognized Organizations were sent the 45-day required notice for
recognized community organizations.
•August 19 & 28 and October 4, 2023: In-person public open houses were held at the
Sugarhouse Fire Station, the Sorenson Community Center, and the downtown Salt Lake City
Library. The open houses were primarily used to explain the proposal and answer questions.
Feedback was generally positive.
•August 25 & 26: Roundtable meetings with development community representatives to
gather input.
Development Community Roundtables
The Mayor’s Office hosted two development community roundtable meetings that allowed Planning
Staff to introduce the amendments and obtain feedback. The development community raised concerns
regarding the rental rate restriction on replacement units (proposed at no more than a 3% increase per
year for 20 years). Their concern centered on cost implications and the unpredictability of such an
extended timeframe. Multiple comments indicated a preference for an upfront fee as an alternative
approach. This preference was both a desire to enhance cost predictability and to allocate the fee toward
providing assistance to a greater number of people facing displacement. As a result, the draft was
modified to allow a payment option in addition to the rental rate restriction option.
PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Commission held a briefing on the proposed changes on October 11, 2023. The briefing
was a public meeting, open to the public, and broadcast on SLCTV and on the city’s YouTube live
channel. The briefing was advertised by posting the agenda as required by the Utah State Code and City
Code and emailed to those on the Planning Division email list.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on November 8, 2023. The public hearing was posted
as required by the Utah State Code and City Code, including posting a notice in a public location within
the city that is reasonably likely to be seen by residents of the municipality. To comply with this
requirement, notice was posted within three city libraries: the Main Library, Sprague Branch, and
Marmalade Branch.
In addition to the input received during the open houses or at the development community roundtable
meetings, three written comments were received that are included in the Planning Commission Staff
Report. Comments focused on a concern that the proposal is too restrictive and may add unnecessary
‘red tape’ which could inhibit the production of housing. One public comment was received after the
Planning Commission Staff Report was published and is included as Exhibit 5 of this memo.
The Planning Commission provided a positive recommendation on the proposed amendments with
two additional recommendations, which are included in the attached ordinance. The Planning
Commission recommends the following language be adopted by the City Council:
•Space for charitable organizations is considered as a potential community benefit.
•The word ‘fee’ is replaced with the word ‘payment’ when considering the option to
allow a payment to the city in lieu of limiting the rental rate on replacement
dwelling units. This was recommended by Planning Staff following additional
consideration and counsel from the Attorney’s Office.

CHAPTER 18.97
MITIGATION OF RESIDENTIAL HOUSING LOSS
18.97.010: PURPOSE:
The purpose of this chapter is to mitigate the loss of affordable housing stock due to new
development with due consideration for vested or protected property rights.
18.97.020: HOUSING MITIGATION CONDITION PRECEDENT TO DEMOLITION OF
RESIDENTIAL UNITS:
A. Housing Mitigation Plan: Except as provided in subsection B of this section, any
application for a demolition permit which, if issued, will result in a loss of one or more
residential units located in a residential zone; any petition for a conditional use permit to
authorize or expand vehicle parking in a residential or mixed use zone; and any petition for a
zoning change that would permit a nonresidential use of land, that includes within its boundaries
residential dwelling units, may not be approved until a housing mitigation plan is approved by
the city. The housing mitigation plan shall be proposed and submitted to the city's planning
director and the director of community and neighborhoods and shall be accompanied by a
housing impact statement.
B. Exception: This section shall not apply to any housing which:
1. Is a nonconforming use as provided by relevant provisions of title 21A,
"Zoning", of this code; or
2. Is located on property for which an applicable master plan or the current
zoning envisions exclusive nonresidential use; or
3. a. Is proposed to be demolished for health or safety reasons as provided in
section 18.64.040 or chapter 18.48 of this title or their successors.
b. Notwithstanding subsection B3a of this section, housing which is
demolished for health or safety reasons, which is the result of neglect pursuant to
section 18.64.045 of this title, shall be subject to the provisions of this section.
3
C. Housing Impact Statement: The housing impact statement shall:
1. Identify the essential adverse impacts on the residential character of the
area subject of the petition;
2. Identify by address any dwelling units targeted for demolition, following
the granting of the petition;
3. Separately for each dwelling unit targeted for demolition, state its current
fair market value, if that unit were in a reasonable state of repair and met all applicable
building, fire and health codes;
4. State the number of square feet of land zoned for residential use that
would be rezoned or conditionally permitted to be used for purposes sought in the
petition, other than residential housing and appurtenant uses; and
5. Specify a mitigation plan to address the loss of residential zoned land,
residential units or residential character.
18.97.030: OPTIONS FOR MITIGATING RESIDENTIAL LOSS:
Petitioners subject to the requirements of this chapter may satisfy the need for mitigation of any
residential housing unit losses by any one of the following methods:
A. Replacement Housing: The petitioner may agree, in a legal form satisfactory to
the city attorney, to construct the same number of residential dwelling units proposed for
demolition, within:
1. The city council district in which the land subject of the petition is located;
or
2. An adjoining council district, if the mitigation site is within a one mile
radius of the demolition site.
3. Any such agreement shall include adequate security to guarantee
completion within two (2) years of the granting of a demolition permit.
B. Fee Based On Difference Between Housing Value And Replacement Cost: The
petitioner may pay to the city housing trust fund the difference between the fair market value of
the housing units planned to be eliminated or demolished and the replacement cost of building
new units of similar square footage and meeting all existing building, fire and other applicable
law, excluding land values.
C. Fee, Where Deteriorated Housing Exists, Not Caused By Deliberate Indifference
Of Landowner:
1. Request By Petitioner For Flat Fee Consideration: In the event that a
residential dwelling unit is targeted or proposed for demolition and is in a deteriorated
state from natural causes, such as fire, earthquake or aged obsolescence that is not
occasioned by the deliberate acts or omissions to act on the part of the petitioner or his
predecessors in interest, which detrimental condition reduces a dwelling unit's fair market
4
value or habitability as a residential dwelling unit, the petitioner may request an
exemption from the above two (2) methods of mitigation from the director of the
department of community and neighborhoods as provided below. A judgment as to
whether deterioration has occurred as the result of deliberate indifference shall be based
on a preponderance of evidence.
2. Required Facts Of Natural Deterioration/Increase Fair Market Value Of
Units To Be Demolished: The petitioner may submit to the director of the department of
community and neighborhoods every fact known to support the proposition that the
residential dwelling units were not purposely allowed to deteriorate by lack of reasonable
maintenance, ordinary and prudent repairs, or other acts or omissions to act. The value of
the unit(s) targeted or proposed for demolition may be increased to the fair market value
that the units would have, if each unit was in a state of habitability and minimally
meeting applicable building codes and other applicable law, excluding land value. This
enhanced value will then be applied in thus computing any housing mitigation payment
provided in subsection B of this section.
3. Flat Fee Mitigation Payment: In the event that the petitioner actually and
reasonably demonstrates to the director of community and neighborhoods that the costs
of calculating and analyzing the various methods of mitigation are unreasonably
excessive in relationship to the rough estimated costs of constitutionally permitted
mitigation, the department director may recommend to the city council that a flat rate be
paid by the petitioner to the city's housing trust fund. This flat rate shall be a sum not in
excess of three thousand three hundred twenty two dollars twenty cents ($3,322.20) per
dwelling unit to be demolished. Such flat fee shall be adjusted for inflation as of January
1 of each calendar year following the initial adoption hereof, based on the consumer price
index for the previous twelve (12) months, or three percent (3%), whichever result is less.
18.97.040: HOUSING MITIGATION JUSTIFICATION TO COUNCIL:
A. Report To City Before Rezoning Hearings: The director of the department of
community and neighborhoods, or designee, shall prepare a report justifying the method of
housing mitigation recommended by the director, including the factual basis upon which it is
premised and a factually based justification for the recommendation. This report shall be
submitted to the planning commission in sufficient time for its deliberation concerning the
advisability of effectuating the petitioner's request for a zoning change. The petitioner may,
likewise, submit its proposal and the factual and legal justification for mitigation, if any, or why
the director's recommendations are appropriate or should be modified. The commission shall
include in its evaluation an evaluation of the adequacy of the housing loss mitigation plan,
proposed by the petitioner and that recommended by director of the department of community
and neighborhoods.
B. Report To Planning Director On Conditional Use Permit Petitions: In the event of
a conditional use permit, said report shall be submitted to the city's planning director. The report
shall be duly evaluated, considered and included in the decision regarding any conditional use
permit. The planning director, or designee, shall memorialize, in writing, the factual basis
supporting any decision dealing with the housing mitigation component of any such conditional
5
use permit and include this finding and evaluation in the file for due consideration should there
be an appeal relating thereto.
C. Report To Housing Advisory And Appeals Board: A housing mitigation plan
required under chapter 18.64, "Demolition", of this title shall be considered by the housing
advisory and appeals board as provided in such chapter. The director of the department of
community and neighborhoods shall prepare a report justifying the method of housing mitigation
recommended by the director, including the factual basis upon which it is premised and a
factually based justification for the recommendation. This report shall be submitted to the
housing advisory and appeals board in sufficient time for its deliberation concerning the
advisability of effectuating the petitioner's request for a demolition permit. The petitioner may,
likewise, submit its proposal and the factual and legal justification for mitigation, if any, or why
the director's recommendations are appropriate or should be modified. The board shall include in
its evaluation an evaluation of the adequacy of the housing loss mitigation plan, proposed by the
petitioner and that recommended by director of the department of community and
neighborhoods.
18.97.050: NATURE AND REVIEW OF ALLEGED UNCONSTITUTIONAL OR ILLEGAL
HOUSING LOSS MITIGATION:
Should any petitioner or other person, corporation, or entity claim that this chapter or any
application of it is illegal, unconstitutional, or may constitute or effectuate an unconstitutional
taking of property without appropriate compensation, either per se or as applied, the city shall be
notified as soon as practicable. The provisions of title 2, chapter 2.66, "Constitutional Takings",
of this code shall apply to each such claim.

should be considered with the understanding that not all factors will be applicable to all petitions.
14
A. If an amendment is approved by the city council, no certificate of occupancy shall be issued
until the property owner demonstrates compliance with the council approval, an applicable
development agreement, and this chapter if required by the approval.

been achieved, are no longer relevant to or capable of addressing the current issues or
needs of the neighborhood or the city, or are no longer aligned with policies in citywide
plans.
5. For petitions submitted by a property owner, the extent, effectiveness, and proportionality
of the public benefit proposed by the petitioner to the increase in development potential if
the proposal were to be adopted by the city council.
6. The potential for displacement of people who reside in any housing that is within the
boundary of the proposed amendment and the plan offered by the petitioner to mitigate

9. The potential impacts on the city to provide safe drinking water, storm water, and sewer
to the property based on the additional development potential of future development.
10. The potential impacts to public safety resources created by the increase in development
potential that may result from the proposed amendment.
11. The potential impacts to any other city service, infrastructure, or resource that may be
impacted by the increase in development potential that may result from the proposed
amendment.
C. Community Benefit Requirement. Each petition that is initiated by a private property owner
shall identify the community benefit(s) provided by the proposal that would not otherwise be
provided without the amendment as provided for in this section.
1. The proposed public benefit(s) shall be from one or more of the following categories:
a. Providing housing that aligns with the current or future needs of the community
as determined by the general plan. Needs could include the level of affordability
in excess of the number of dwellings that exist on the site, size in terms of number
of bedrooms, or availability of housing for purchase.
b. Providing commercial space for local businesses or charitable organizations.
c. Providing a dedication of public open space.
15
d. Providing a dedication or other legal form of protection from future development
of land that is adjacent to a river, creek, wetland, floodplain, wildlife habitat, or

be adopted;
b. The percentage of space allocated to commercial use compared to the total ground
floor area that could be developed on the site;
c. The size of the public open space compared to the total developable area of the
lot, exclusive of setbacks, required landscaped yards, and any open space
requirement of the proposed zoning district;
d. The relative size and environmental value of any land that is to be dedicated;
e. The historic significance of the structures proposed to be preserved;
f. The amount of development that could be accommodated due to the increase in
public infrastructure capacity compared to the general need for the area;

may accept the proposed public benefit, modify the benefit, require a different public
benefit, or waive the public benefit based on the merits of the proposal.
5. Any future development where a public benefit is required shall be subject to a
development agreement to ensure that the agreed upon public benefit is provided prior to
a certificate of occupancy being issued for any building within the future development.
6. A violation of the development agreement that includes not providing the agreed to
public benefit shall require the property owner to pay a fine that is equal to the fair
market value of the public benefit in the development agreement plus the fines identified
in 21A.20.040.
D. Displaced Tenant Resulting from Demolition of Housing: If a proposed amendment
submitted by a property owner includes the likely demolition of any dwelling, the city
council may require the petitioner to provide relocation assistance for the current tenant(s), or
a replacement dwelling as required by this section for each demolished dwelling within a
future development.
1. This subsection may be applied by the city council when a proposal for a property owner
initiated general plan amendment is likely to result in an existing housing unit being
16
demolished due to the increase in development rights that may result from the proposed
amendment.
2. For the purpose of this section, any term that is used in the singular shall be interpreted to
include the plural of the term.
3. A petitioner may not terminate a lease or evict a tenant for the purpose of evading the
obligation to provide tenant relocation assistance and other requirements set forth in this
section.
4. Tenant Relocation Assistance: When a petition is likely to result in the demolition of a
dwelling unit, the property owner may be required to provide the tenant with relocation
assistance to supplement the costs of leasing a comparable replacement dwelling. The
rental relocation assistance includes the following:
a. Moving expenses based on a reasonable estimate provided by the tenant, up to a
maximum of $1,500.
b. Application fees for the replacement housing.
c. The deposit that the displaced tenant would have to pay to secure replacement
housing.
d. Monthly Rental Assistance payment. The rental assistance payment is based on
the difference, if any, between the cost of the monthly rent of the demolished
housing and a comparable unit. The rental payment total amount paid shall not be
more than $7,200.
e. If the property owner relocates the displaced tenant into an existing unit that is
owned by the applicant within Salt Lake City at the same rental rate that the
displaced tenant was paying and without an additional applicant fee or deposit,
then paragraphs b, c, and d above do not apply.
f. Any and all payments should be received by the tenant 24 hours in advance of
leaving the unit to be demolished.
g. Tenant Relocation Assistance Exemptions: If the project is receiving identified
federal funds and subject to the Uniform Relocation Assistance (URA) and Real
Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, as amended, 42. U.S.C 4601-4655,
The relocation assistance rules for the developer/tenant under that act will govern
and the tenant relocation assistance outlined in this section will not apply. The
developer shall inform the city if they are subject to URA and details of assistance
to be provided. Tenants who receive tenant relocation assistance from this section
are not eligible to receive relocation benefits from the city.
E. Demolished Unit Replacement. The future development may be required to replace the
demolished housing unit within the new development. The replacement housing unit shall
have the same number of bedrooms. In addition, the applicant shall propose one of the
options listed in this section. The city council has the authority to waive or modify this
requirement.
1. The replacement unit shall be rented at the same amount as the demolished unit with no
more than a 3% annual increase on the rental rate for a period of 20 years.
2. The applicant may propose a payment to the city in lieu of the rental restriction on the
new unit to go toward the city’s housing fund to offset the loss of affordable housing. The
17
payment shall be equal to the monthly rent of the unit prior to demolition multiplied by
the number of months between the time the unit is vacated prior to demolition until a
certificate of occupancy for the replacement dwelling is issued.
F. If a housing unit is demolished or neglected to the point of being uninhabitable at any time
during the five years prior to a petition for a plan amendment being submitted or is placed on
the city’s boarded building inventory, the city council may require this section to apply to
tenants that were displaced by the demolition or require the tenant relocation amount to be
paid to the city for the purpose of other tenant relocation assistance.
19.06.080 DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS:
The petitioner may be required by the city council to enter into a development agreement as
indicated in this section.
A. The city council may consider applying requirements through an appropriate legal agreement
with a petition for a zoning amendment when the city council determines that such an
agreement is necessary to increase the benefit of the proposed zoning amendment and/or to
address potential impacts to city services, surrounding land uses, public safety, and the health
of current and future residents, business owners, and visitors to the city. The agreement may
modify any applicable requirement of this title provided the modification was proposed to
and considered by the planning commission as required for any zoning amendment.
Agreements that constrain the development potential or land uses of the subject property
compared to what is authorized in the proposed zoning district are not required to be
reviewed by the planning commission prior to consideration of the agreement.
B. The petitioner shall enter into a development agreement with the city if the city council
requires any or all of the following: a community benefit, tenant relocation assistance, or
replacement of demolished housing units. The development agreement shall include the
following information.

automatically terminates the development agreement after the timeframe expires.
4. The development agreement shall be recorded on the title of the property with the Salt
Lake County Recorder as well as on the title of any other property that is part of the
approved community benefit, tenant relocation assistance, or other requirement imposed
by the city council.

1. The proposed community benefit(s) shall be within any of the following categories:
a. Providing housing that aligns with the current or future needs of the community
as determined by the general plan. Needs could include the level of affordability
in excess of the number of dwellings that exist on the site, size in terms of number
of bedrooms, or availability of housing for purchase;
b. Providing commercial space for local businesses or charitable organizations;
c. Providing a dedication of public open space;
d. Providing a dedication or other legal form of protection from future development
of land that is adjacent to a river, creek, wetland, floodplain, wildlife habitat, or
natural lands;
e. Preserving historic structures;
f. Expanding public infrastructure that expands capacity for future development.
2. The proposed community benefit may be evaluated based on the following, if applicable:
a. For proposals that are intended to increase the housing supply, the level of
affordability of the additional density that may be allowed if the proposal were to
be adopted;
b. The percentage of space allocated to commercial use compared to the total ground
floor area that could be developed on the site;
c. The size of the public open space compared to the total developable area of the
lot, exclusive of setbacks, required landscaped yards, and any open space
requirement of the proposed zoning district;
d. The relative size and environmental value of any land that is to be dedicated;
e. The historic significance of the structures proposed to be preserved;
f. The amount of development that could be accommodated due to the increase in
public infrastructure capacity compared to the general need for the area;
g. The input received related to the community benefit during the 45-day
engagement period;
h. Policies in the general plan that support the proposed community benefit.
3. The community benefit shall be subject to public input as part of the required 45-day
public input period.
24
4. The planning commission may make a recommendation to the city council regarding
accepting the proposed public benefit.
5. The city council has final authority regarding requiring a public benefit. The city council
may accept the proposed public benefit, modify the benefit, require a different public
benefit, or waive the public benefit based on the merits of the proposal.
6. Any future development where a public benefit is required shall be subject to a
development agreement to ensure that the agreed upon public benefit is provided prior to
a certificate of occupancy being issued for any building within the future development.
7. A violation of the development agreement that includes not providing the agreed to
public benefit shall require the property owner to pay a fine that is equal to the fair
market value of the public benefit in the development agreement plus the fines identified
in 21A.20.040.
D. Displaced Tenants Resulting from Demolition of Housing: If a proposed amendment
submitted by a property owner includes the likely demolition of any dwelling, the city
council may require the petitioner to provide relocation assistance for the current tenant(s), or
a replacement dwelling as required by this section for each demolished dwelling within a
future development.
1. This subsection may be applied by the city council when a proposal for a property owner
initiated zoning map amendment is likely to result in an existing housing unit being
demolished due to the increase in development rights that may result from the proposed
amendment.
2. For the purpose of this section, any term that is used in the singular shall be interpreted to
include the plural of the term.
3. A petitioner may not terminate a lease or evict a tenant for the purpose of evading the
obligation to provide tenant relocation assistance and other requirements set forth in this
section.
4. Tenant Relocation Assistance: When a petition is likely to result in the demolition of a
dwelling unit, the property owner may be required to provide the tenant with relocation
assistance to supplement the costs of leasing a comparable replacement dwelling. The
rental relocation assistance includes the following:
a. Moving expenses based on a reasonable estimate provided by the tenant, up to a
maximum of $1,500.
b. Application fees for the replacement housing.
c. The deposit that the displaced tenant would have to pay to secure replacement
housing.
d. Monthly Rental Assistance Payment. The rental assistance payment is based on
the difference, if any, between the cost of the monthly rent of the demolished
housing and a comparable unit. The rental payment total amount paid shall not be
more than $7,200.
e. If the property owner relocates the displaced tenant into an existing unit that is
owned by the applicant within Salt Lake City at the same rental rate the displaced
tenant was paying and without an additional applicant fee or deposit, then
paragraphs b, c, and d do not apply.
25
f. Any and all payments should be received by the tenant 24 hours in advance of
leaving the unit to be demolished.
g. Tenant Relocation Assistance Exemptions: If the project is receiving identified
federal funds and subject to the Uniform Relocation Assistance (URA) and Real
Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, as amended, 42. U.S.C 4601-4655.
The relocation assistance rules for the developer/tenant under that act will govern
and the Tenant Relocation Assistance outlined in this section will not apply. The
developer shall inform the city if they are subject to URA and details of assistance
to be provided. Tenants who receive tenant relocation assistance from this section
are not eligible to receive relocation benefits from the city.
E. Demolished Unit Replacement. The future development may be required to replace the
demolished housing unit within the new development. The replacement housing unit shall
have the same number of bedrooms. In addition, the applicant shall propose one of the
options listed in this section. The city council has the authority to waive or modify this
requirement.
1. The replacement unit shall be rented at the same amount as the demolished unit with no
more than a 3% annual increase on the rental rate for a period of 20 years.
2. The applicant may propose a payment to the city in lieu of the rental restriction on the
new unit to go toward the city’s housing fund to offset the loss of affordable housing. The
payment shall be equal to the monthly rent of the unit prior to demolition multiplied by
the number of months between the time the unit is vacated prior to demolition until a
certificate of occupancy for the replacement dwelling is issued.
F. If a housing unit is demolished or neglected to the point of being uninhabitable at any time
during the five years prior to a petition for a zoning amendment being submitted or is placed
on the city’s boarded building inventory, the city council may require this section to apply to
tenants that were displaced by the demolition or require the tenant relocation amount to be
paid to the city for the purpose of other tenant relocation assistance.

C. Information Provided by the City. After a complete application has been submitted to apply
this overlay to property within the boundaries of the city, applicable city departments shall
provide the planning division with the following information within 30 days:
1. Information regarding the impact to the police department which may include any data
that demonstrates the services to existing homeless resources centers located in the city,
the estimated cost of providing service by the police department to existing homeless
resource centers and the impact that a new homeless resource center has on the ability of
the police department to provide services to other parts of the city.
2. Information regarding the impact to the fire department which may include any data that
demonstrates the services to existing homeless resources centers located in the city and
the estimated cost of providing service by the fire department to existing homeless
resource centers and the impact that a new homeless resource center has on the ability of
the fire department to provide services to other parts of the city.
3. Information regarding the number of civil enforcement cases associated with existing

Homeless Resource Center Overlay District, the planning commission and city council shall
27
consider the following factors, in addition to those factors identified elsewhere in Chapter
21A.50:
1. The anticipated benefits to people experiencing homelessness provided by the facility in
the proposed location.
2. The proximity of support services that benefit people who may use the facility and the
ability of people to access services from the proposed location. If services are not within
walking distance of the proposed facility, consideration of a transportation plan
connecting support services to the facility.
3. The ratio of homeless related services provided in Salt Lake City compared to other
jurisdictions in Salt Lake County.

A. No petition for an amendment to this title shall be considered by the city council or the
planning commission within one year of the withdrawal by the applicant or final decision of
the city council upon a prior application covering substantially the same subject or
substantially the same property except as provided in this section. This determination shall be
made by the zoning administrator upon receipt of an application pursuant to
Section 21A.50.030. This provision shall not restrict the mayor, the city council or the
planning commission from proposing any text amendment or change in the boundaries of any
of the districts in this title at any time.
B. If the petitioner chooses to modify a petition after the planning commission has made a
recommendation, the petitioner may withdraw the application and submit a new application,
including the required fee, and start a new process as required by this chapter.
C. A modification to a petition that increases the density or development potential in
relationship to the original proposal prior to the planning commission recommendation shall
start the public engagement process over.
28
D. A petition that is denied by the city council may not be resubmitted for a period of one year
from the date of the decision to deny the petition unless the petition proposes a more
restrictive zoning district.
E. A petition for a text amendment that is denied by the city council shall not be resubmitted for
a period of three years from the date of denial if the petition is substantially the same as the
petition that was denied.
F. A petition that is withdrawn for reasons other than those listed in this section and before the
first public hearing is held shall be closed with no action. Once a petition is closed after it is
withdrawn, it cannot be reopened, and a new application will be required.
21A.50.065: DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS.
A. The city council may consider applying requirements through an appropriate legal agreement
with a petition for a zoning amendment when the city council determines that such an
agreement is necessary to increase the benefit of the proposed zoning amendment and/or to
address potential impacts to city services, surrounding land uses, public safety, and the health
of current and future residents, business owners, and visitors to the city. The agreement may
modify any applicable requirement of this title provided the modification was proposed to

County Recorder as well as on the title of any other property that is part of the property
community benefit, tenant relocation assistance, or other requirement imposed by the city
council.

Subject:(EXTERNAL) Fw: comment on Community Benefit
Date:Wednesday, November 8, 2023 2:03:18 PM
Krissy-Could you send this comment to the Dropbox? I expect to attend the meeting in
person. Thank you.
Sincerely, cindy c.
comment on Community Benefit:
This is a significant piece of work and well written, just as I would expect. I only
have time to talk about my concerns, but I appreciate these long overdue
changes and amendments.
We know from the Housing Loss Mitigation ordinance that if developers can
pay a fee to be relieved of their obligation, that is what they will do. And the
fee doesn't cover the cost of replacing housing.
I think that the community benefits would benefit from an examination in
terms of the potential return to the developer. Some of them will generate
income; others will not. The ones which will not have a different community
benefit than ones which will. That said, the community benefit which we need
most is housing at less than 80% AMI. I am suggesting that there be more
math applied in evaluating the benefits.
I am opposed to the inclusion of publicly accessible open space in the core of
the city where of course we desperately need it. That is because we have not
provided adequate shelter to require that people not live in our park spaces.
On November 1, the residents of Liberty Park were dispersed. They went to
Herm Franks and moved north on 600 E, locating in public spaces and at vacant
buildings. I have now been dealing with the consequences of this displacement
for a week and observed a fire in the park strip on 600 E last night. I spent
months in 2022 working with many other people to return Taufer Park to a
recreational space. In August 2022, it was a disgusting, crime-ridden place that
I would not walk through. Every park space in the core of the city requires a
legion of people to enable it to function for the intended uses.
Finally in Attachment A, 19.06.070C 1. e. The text should read "Preserving
historic structures NOT ALREADY PROTECTED."
I am pleased to see that public input is included in the criteria for evaluation. It
has always been relevant for master plan amendments and rezoning. The fines
for non-compliance are an improvement, but we are a long way from enforcing
fines commensurate with the cost to the city.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY
TO:City Council Members
FROM: Allison Rowland
Budget & Policy Analyst
DATE:January 16, 2024
RE: ORDINANCE: ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT LOAN FUND LOAN TO EATS, LLC, AT 159
WEST BROADWAY, SUITE #200
ISSUE AT-A-GLANCE
The Council will consider approving a loan from the City’s Economic Development Loan Fund (EDLF) to a
business called Eats, LLC, a vegan bakery specializing in donuts, sweet rolls, and cookies. The City’s Economic
Development Loan Committee recommends the Council approve a $100,000 loan at 7.75% fixed interest rate
over seven years to this business for expansion, including a food trailer, equipment, buildout, contingency, and
working capital. This loan will assist in the creation of three new jobs in the next year, and retention of two
existing jobs. Equipment owned by the business would be used as collateral for the loan, including a food
truck/trailer to be purchased with loan proceeds.
For context, the nationwide median small business commercial and industrial loan rates for the third quarter of
2023 (the most recent data available), were 7.71% for fixed-rate loans at urban banks, and 8.98% for variable
rate loans, according to the most recent U.S. Federal Reserve Small Business Lending Survey.i In the second
quarter of 2022, these rates were 4.50% and 5.55% respectively. Interest rates for EDLF loans consider an
assessment of the risk level of different applicants, among other factors. Loan interest rates have ranged from
7.25% to 11.00% since the beginning of 2022, with most at 7.25%.
The application from Eats, LLC, meets the following EDLF program goals:
•Increases employment opportunities;
•Stimulates business development and expansion;
•Encourages private investment;
•Promotes economic development;
•Enhances neighborhood vitality; and,
•Boosts commercial enterprise.
Item Schedule:
Briefing: January 16, 2024
Public Hearing: N/A
Potential Action: February 6, 2024
Page | 2
The EDLF is a program administered by the Department of Economic Development, which is charged with
maintaining the corpus of the EDLF in a manner sufficient to perpetuate the goals of the program. Each loan
application is pre-screened, and an underwriting analysis and economic impact statement are completed before
an application may be recommended for Loan Committee (see below) review. Information on successful
applications is transmitted to the Council to consider for final approval.
Goal of the briefing: Consider a potential $100,000 loan from the Economic Development Loan Fund to a
business called Eats, LLC.
ADDITIONAL AND BACKGROUND INFORMATION
A.EDLF available balance and amount of outstanding loans. The Finance Department reported that
the Fund’s cash on hand was $8,633,216 on January 2, 2024. Outstanding loans totaled $3,703,202 as of
that date.
B.EDLF Committee Membership. The Department of Economic Development lists nine members of the
EDLF Committee as follows:
City Employees
1. Finance Director, Community and
Neighborhoods Department
2. Representative of the Mayor’s Office
3. Salt Lake City employee at large
4. Representative of the Division of
Housing Stability
5. Director, Department of Economic
Development
Community Volunteers
1. Salt Lake City Business
Advisory Board (BAB) member
2. Banker
3. Community lender
4. Business mentor
POLICY QUESTIONS
1. The Council may wish to have a policy discussion with the Administration about interest rates charged
by the City from this and other loan funds, and whether it makes sense to re-evaluate how interest rates
are determined for lenders, especially since the City typically offers loans as a lender-of-last-resort.
2. The Council may wish to ask the Administration whether the EDLF Committee considered any other
unique information about this business that would help Council Members with their own evaluations of
how this application compares to others. For example, are there risk factors that are evaluated for each
company, like outstanding loans, years in business, etc.?
3.What outreach does the Department do to ensure a diverse pool of businesses successfully applies to the
EDLF? Are applications from diverse owners, particularly those whose businesses are located on the
Westside, offered additional support through the application process? Does EDLF staff have ideas for
improving access that would benefit from program changes or additional funding?
4. The Council may wish to request a more general update on EDLF use and processes. This could include
the number of applications, review criteria used, loan program goals, etc.

Reasoning behind staff recommendation
Applicants of The Economic Development Loan Fund (EDLF) go through a thorough application
process consisting of a pre-screening, underwriting analysis and economic impact statement. Only
after the loan applicant goes through these processes, then the loan is recommended to be
reviewed by the Loan Committee members. Upon the thorough review of the Loan Committee
members then a recommendation is made before the loan is transmitted to the Mayor for Council
to receive the recommendation for final approval. Because the Loan Committee review process
must adhere to the Open Meetings Act, DED’s staff has worked closely with the City Attorney’s
Office to ensure that applicants’ information is protected and at the same time the public process
is followed.
In addition, the EDLF loans must meet the goals of the Economic Development Loan Fund as
stated in the EDLF program guidelines. This loan meets the EDLF program guidelines in the
following areas.
•Increase employment opportunities,
•Stimulate business development and expansion,
•Encourage private investment,
•Promote economic development,
•Enhance neighborhood vitality,
•Boost commercial enterprise.
This loan will assist in the creation of 3 new jobs in the next year and retention of 2 current jobs.
This loan was recommended by the EDLF Committee to the City Council for approval.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY

TO:City Council Members
FROM: Ben Luedtke, Sylvia Richards,
Jennifer Bruno, and Kira Luke
DATE: January 16, 2024
RE: Budget Amendment #3 of Fiscal Year (FY) 2024
NEW INFORMATION
At the January 9 briefing, the Council discussed the modified proposal for item A-1 from the Fire Department which
requests four civilian single-role paramedics. The Council took a unanimous straw poll in support of the proposal.
Item A-1 has a related resolution that would request admission to the Tier 2 Firefighters Retirement System for
emergency medical personnel including paramedics and social workers. The retirement system resolution and the
budget adoption ordinance will be listed separately on the formal meeting agenda for individual votes.
The Finance Department has provided a General Fund revenues update presentation that will be given at the
January 16 briefing. Council Members had requested the update as context to consider the remaining items in
Budget Amendment #3. On January 16, the Council will continue reviewing items that were not yet discussed at
earlier briefings. The Council may consider voting on item A-1, the related resolution, and remaining budget items in
this amendment at the January 16 formal meeting.
Information below was provided to the Council at earlier briefings
At the December 12 briefing, the Council reviewed four items previously discussed with time sensitive deadlines
(e.g., the upcoming Utah Legislature’s General Session, anticipated price increases, winter shelter needs, and
manufacturer order windows). At the formal meeting later that day, the Council closed the public hearing and
adopted the four urgent items listed below. The budget amendment remains open. Some Council Members
expressed a preference to receive a General Fund Balance update as confirmed by the annual financial audit and
revenue projections as context for considering remaining items in this budget amendment. The Finance Department
is expected to be available to present these updates at the January 16 briefing. The Fire Department submitted a
modified proposal for item A-1 which is summarized below. At the time of publishing, details were pending on
remaining funds from prior year appropriations related to item I-1 for physical security improvements to City Hall.
Urgent Items Adopted on December 12
- A-4: City Attorney’s Office Legislative Division Request for Four New FTEs ($317,190 from General Fund
Balance of which $20,000 is one-time for workspaces, and $12,000 to the IMS Fund one-time)
- A-15: Mill & Overlay Pilot Program for Street Pavement Maintenance ($205,177 from the Quarter Cent Sales
Tax for Transportation Fund Balance, and Transferring $955,177 to the Fleet Fund)
- A-16: The Road Home’s Family Hotel Winter Interim Plan ($300,000 from General Fund Balance)
- D-2: IMS FY2023 Encumbrance Reappropriation ($4,269,083 from IMS Fund Balance)
Modified Proposal for A-1: Fire Department Medical Response Civilian Single Role Paramedics
Project Timeline:
Set Date: November 14, 2023
1st Briefing: December 5, 2023
2nd Briefing: December 12, 2023 (if needed)
Public Hearing: December 12, 2023
3rd Briefing: January 9, 2024
4th Briefing: January 16, 2024
Potential Action: January 16 or February 6, 2024
Request for Two New FTEs and Reclassify Two Vacant Entry-level Firefighter FTEs
(Budget Neutral in FY2024 Using Vacancy Savings; $133,266 New Ongoing General Fund Cost in FY2025)
After the Council’s initial discussion on December 5, the Fire Department submitted a modified proposal for this
item. The table below compares the original and modified proposals. The Department considers staffing civilian
single role paramedics in the existing Medical Response Teams to be a pilot program. Currently, firefighter EMTs
staff the Medical Response Teams. If the pilot program creates operational efficiencies as expected, then additional
civilian single role paramedics may be requested in the next annual budget.
Proposal FTEs (full-time employees)FY2024 Budget Impact FY2025 Budget Impact
Original 4 new FTEs $160,519 from General
Fund Balance $292,638
Modified
Reclassify 2 vacant entry-level
firefighter FTEs, and
2 new FTEs
Budget neutral; using
vacancy savings $133,266
Information below was provided to the Council at earlier briefings
At the first briefing, the Council discussed time sensitive items and the three items requesting new full-time
employees (FTEs). The other items will be discussed at the follow-up briefing on December 12. The Council may
consider adopting some or all items in Budget Amendment #3 after the public hearing is held, although standard
practice would be to consider only the time sensitive items. In addition to the amendment adoption ordinance, the
Council could also act on another ordinance that is proposed for item A-4 to codify a Legislative Affairs Division in
the City Attorney’s Office and the duties and functions of that department. Item A-1 also has a resolution proposed
requesting admission to the Tier 2 Firefighters Retirement System for emergency medical personnel including
social workers.
Straw Polls
The Council took the following nonbinding straw polls at the first briefing:
- A-4: City Attorney’s Office Legislative Division Request for Four New FTEs ($317,220 from General Fund
Balance):
o Six in favor, none against, and one absent to support a division director FTE appointed ($85,510)
and a senior city attorney merit ($117,676).
o Three in favor, three against, and one absent to support a special projects analyst ($61,707) and
administrative assistant ($52,297).
o Note the amounts above in parenthesis are half-year costs for salary, benefits, $3,000 per
employee for electronic devices (e.g., computers), and $5,000 per employee to establish
workspaces.
- A-15: Mill & Overlay Pilot Program for Street Pavement Maintenance ($205,177 from the Quarter Cent
Sales Tax for Transportation Fund Balance and Transferring $955,177 to the Fleet Fund)
o Six in favor, none against, and one absent to support the additional funding request, transfer to the
Fleet Fund, and funding source swap.
- A-16: The Road Home’s Family Hotel Winter Interim Plan ($300,000 from General Fund Balance)
o Six in favor, none against, and one absent to support the one-time appropriation for motel and
hotel vouchers available to families experiencing homelessness.
Information below was provided to the Council at earlier briefings
Budget Amendment Number Three includes 31 proposed amendments, $3,103,054 in revenues and $15,244,714 in
expenditures of which $1,738,732 is from General Fund Balance and requesting changes to eight funds.
Additionally, the transmittal indicates there is an increase of nine FTE’s. Four of the nine FTEs are being requested
in Item A-1 for the Fire Department and four FTEs are being requested in A-4 for the City Attorney’s new
Legislative Division. The other new FTE is being requested in A-13 in the Finance Department.
Fund Balance
If all the items are adopted as proposed, then General Fund Balance would be projected at 14.3% which is
$5,784,487 above the 13% minimum target of ongoing General Fund revenues. Note: this figure includes both
General Fund and Funding our Future fund balances. The Administration’s chart of projected Fund Balance later
in this report was prepared before the Council voted in item I-1 of Budget Amendment #2 to return $1 million to
General Fund Balance from an affordable housing development grant that did not proceed. This increased the
projected percentage from the 14.08% to 14.3%.
The projected Fund Balance does not include unused FY2023 budgets that drop to Fund Balance at the end of the
fiscal year. The General Fund typically sees $2 million to $3 million drop to Fund Balance annually, which would
increase the Fund Balance percentage. It also does not include actual revenues through the end of the last fiscal
year. The comprehensive annual financial audit will confirm the actual Fund Balance through the end of FY2023.
The annual audit is typically completed in December.
This updated 14.3% combined Fund Balance is higher than estimated during the annual budget deliberations in
June and Budget Amendment #1 last month due to finance department clarification on best practices for what to
include or not include in Fund Balance calculations. The revised estimate did not impact the Funding Our Future
portion of Fund Balance which remains at 14.51% which is $791,501 above the 13% minimum target.
Council Request: Tracking New Ongoing General Fund Costs Approved in Midyear Budget Amendments
Council staff has provided the following list of new ongoing costs to the General Fund. Many of these are new FTE’s approved during this fiscal
year’s budget amendments, noting that each new FTE increases the City’s annual budget if positions are added to the staffing document. Note that
some items in the table below are partially or fully funded by grants. If a grant continues to be awarded to the City in future years, then there may
not be a cost to the General Fund but grant funding is not guaranteed year-over-year.

The Administration’s chart below shows the current General Fund Balance figures. Fund balance has been updated to include proposed changes for Budget
Amendment #3. Based on those projections the adjusted fund balance is projected to be at 14.08%. After this chart was developed, the Council added $1
million to Fund Balance in Budget Amendment #2 which increased the estimated percentage to 14.3%.
A summary spreadsheet outlining proposed budget changes is attached to the transmittal. The
Administration requests that document be modified based on the decisions of the Council.

Impact Fees Update
The Administration’s transmittal provides an updated summary of impact fee tracking. The information is current as
of 7/20/23. The table below has taken into account impact fees appropriated by the Council on August 15 as part of
the FY2024 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) . As a result, the City is on-track with impact fee budgeting to have
no refunds during all of FY2024 and FY2025. The transportation section of the City’s Impact Fees Plan was updated
in October 2020. The Administration is working on updates to the fire, parks, and police sections of the plan.
Type Unallocated Cash
“Available to Spend”Next Refund Trigger Date Amount of Expiring

Fire $273,684 More than two years away -
Parks $14,064,637 More than two years away -

Transportation $6,064,485 More than two years away -
Note: Encumbrances are an administrative function when impact fees are held under a contract
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: Fire Department Medical Response Paramedics Request for Four New FTEs ($160,519 from
General Fund Balance)
The Administration is proposing a further evolution to staffing for the Medical Response Teams (MRTs). The proposal
would increase the scope and efficiency of the team while reducing the cost of staffing each of four (4) SUV-based light
response MRT units throughout Salt Lake City.
The proposal adds four civilian Paramedic FTEs to the Fire Department. Each would be classified as Single-Role
Paramedics (SRP’s) and would be allocated specifically to MRT positions currently held by firefighter/EMT’s. The
displaced firefighters would fill daily vacancies throughout the department, and staff additional apparatus as the
department grows. This will likely result in overtime budget savings although the exact amount is unknown at this time. In
its current form the MRT is a successful program, but from a budgetary perspective, staffing the MRTs exclusively with
firefighter/EMTs is not the most efficient use of resources. Civilian Paramedics are a less costly position than a sworn
firefighter, and the training time to onboard is significantly shorter (2 weeks rather than 16).
The request for FY2024 would be $150,119 plus some startup costs of $10,400. Full year funding for FY25 would be
$292,638.
Approving this shift mid-year would enable the department to start the hiring process for SRP’s in January and
incorporate them into the MRT’s as soon as February 2024. The department plans to continue gathering data on the
budgetary impact of this shift on the MRT program in order to inform the FY25 budget plan.
Background - The Salt Lake City Fire Department (SLCFD) currently operates three Medical Response Teams (MRTs)
with another funded at the Salt Lake City Airport beginning in January of 2024 for a total of four MRTs staffed by 16
firefighter/EMTs. This initiative was initially funded by the Council in 2014, in part to realize fuel and staffing efficiencies.
Having been proven successful over the years both from a sustainability and staffing perspective, it was expanded in 2022
to include social workers when available. When a social worker is combined with an MRT the City refers to this as a
Community Health Access Team (CHAT). The department has indicated that when all social worker positions are filled,
their goal is to have a social worker on 2 MRT teams (becoming a CHAT), 6 days a week. Staff has included Attachment 3
showing relevant data for the first full year of CHAT operations.
➢Policy question – In addition to the relevant data collected on the MRT program, the Council may wish to ask
the Administration to also collect data on any potential department-wide overtime savings of this shift.
A-2: American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Grant Management Employee Expenses ($14,225 from ARPA)
The Economic Development Department is requesting $14,225 of ARPA funds budgeted in previous fiscal years that was
not used. The funds would cover expenses for an existing employee supporting the Department’s administration of ARPA
local business direct assistance grants and local nonprofit pass-through assistance grants. The Department hired two FTEs
to administer the programs through FY2023. However, the program implementation has taken longer than anticipated.
One of the FTEs has left employment with the City and the position is no longer needed. This additional funding would
provide a total of $125,000 for the second position through the end of FY2024. The two grant assistance programs are
expected to be completed at the end of FY2024 so the second FTE would no longer be needed next fiscal year.
A-3: Withdrawn Prior to Transmittal
A-4: City Attorney’s Office Legislative Division Request for Four New FTEs ($297,220 from General Fund
Balance)
The Administration is proposing to add four new FTEs to create a Legislative Division within the City Attorney’s Office.
According to the transmittal, “The primary focus of this division will be on legislative affairs, with special focus on the
legislative session and the various impacts to Salt Lake City.” The amount requested for FY2024 (6 months of funding) is
$297,220.40, which includes one-time startup costs such as computers ($12,000, to be budgeted as a transfer to IMS),
and funding to establish workspaces and necessary equipment ($20,000). The full year cost for the four positions is
$594,440.79. Note: The Administration would like to gauge Council support on this item at the first briefing such as a
straw poll and consider whether to approve this item at the December 12 meeting, so that positions can be
advertised/onboarded prior to the 2024 State Legislative Session which begins Tuesday, January 16, 2024.
The four proposed positions are as follows:
•Legislative Affairs Division Director (Grade E34 - appointed)
•Senior City Attorney (Grade E39 - merit)
•Special Projects Analyst (Grade E26 - merit)
•Administrative Assistant (Grade N21 - merit)
The proposal also includes an ordinance to amend the City Code to document this as a new division and to clarify that the
City Attorney’s Office and Legislative Division report equally to both branches of government. The Administration notes
that the ordinance:
•Establishes that because the City Attorney manages the legal affairs of both the executive and legislative branches
of government, she reports to both the Mayor and Council Chair, and can be removed at the discretion of the
Mayor.
•Clarifies that the City Attorney supervises the Recorder’s Office, Risk Management Division, and Division of
Legislative Affairs.
•Clarifies that the City Attorney may retain outside counsel on behalf of the City, if she concludes that the City
Attorney’s Office has a conflict of interest, is unable, or is unavailable to perform that legal work for the City.
•Creates the Division of Legislative Affairs, which will be responsible for monitoring state and federal legislation
and engaging in advocacy, collaboration, and tracking of all legislative matters for the City.
•Establishes the director of legislative affairs, who will work with both branches of government on the City’s
legislative agenda and will report to both branches of government on legislative priorities and policies.
Staff is working with the Attorney’s Office on several clarifying edits to the ordinance to ensure it matches the intent of the
bullet points listed above. See Attachment 1 for the approved as to form version of the ordinance and Attachment 2 for the
redlined version (showing edits in track changes format).
A-5: Additional Funding for 2100 South Reconstruction in Sugar House ($3,323,950 from Transportation
Impact Fees)
This request would maximize the eligible use of transportation impact fees for complete streets elements in the 2100
South reconstruction project. The total estimated cost for reconstructing 2100 South through the Sugar House Business
District (from 700 East to 1300 East) continues to increase due to inflation, supply chain issues, and an expanded scope in
response to community-desired elements. Construction level designs are anticipated to be completed this winter. Then the
project would go out to bid after which exact costs would be known. Construction may begin in 2024. The table below
summarizes budget line items for this project including the additional funding requested in this budget amendment. No
further funding requests are anticipated for this project.

The project webpage is publicly available at www.2100southslc.org
A-6: Additional Funding for 600/700 North Reconstruction ($3,204,371 from Transportation Impact
Fees)
This request would almost maximize the eligible use of transportation impact fees for complete streets elements in the
600/700 North corridor reconstruction and transformation project. It is eligible for another $400,000 of transportation
impact fees however the current unallocated available balance is not enough to cover that additional amount. The Council
may see a request in a future budget opening for the additional $400,000 if enough transportation impact fee revenue
comes in later this fiscal year or next. The total estimated cost for reconstructing the corridor (from Redwood Road to 800
West) continues to increase due to inflation, supply chain issues, and an expanded scope in response to community-
desired elements.
The 2022 Sales Tax Revenue Bond included $9,753,000 for this project. The Council also approved $1,879,654 in FY2022
CIP from Funding Our Future transit dollars for this project. A frequent (every 15 minutes) bus service route runs along
this corridor. Several other smaller funding sources are also anticipated to be used for the project such as Class C funds,
remaining Streets Reconstruction bond funds unused from completed projects, grants, and CIP complete streets funds.
Construction level designs are anticipated to be completed this winter. Then the project would go out to bid after which
exact costs would be known. Construction may begin in 2025.

A-7: Security Access Control System Upgrades ($400,000 from General Fund Balance)
Additional one-time funding is needed to continue transitioning City buildings to an upgraded S2 control access system as
the citywide standard. The back-end software was recently upgraded for the Public Safety Building and City Hall. This
item would allow the same upgrade for Plaza 349 and the Justice Court buildings. The funding also includes card readers
and proximity cards (sometimes called smart badges or access cards) for employees using the four buildings. The Council
could discuss this item in a closed session since the topic relates to security devices, personnel, and/or systems.
A-8: Additional Funds to Purchase Electric Trucks instead of Sedans for the Compliance Division
($20,000 from General Fund Balance)
Current funding would allow the Fleet Division to purchase two electric sedans. One sedan to replace a jeep that is past
useful life and another sedan for three new FTEs added in the annual budget to create the RV and Long-term Parking
Enforcement Team. This funding request would allow both vehicles to be electric trucks instead of sedans. The larger
vehicles would provide greater capabilities for the team to operate during the winter, inclement weather, and in
neighborhoods with steep roads. The trucks also have larger cargo space for equipment and supplies such as pay station
kiosks.
A-9: Adding Multimodal Specialized Road Markings Maintenance Funding into the Streets Division’s
Base Budget ($200,000 from General Fund Balance)
The Council did not fund this item in FY2024 CIP but requested the Administration evaluate adding this ongoing
maintenance need to the ongoing base budget for the Public Services Department or the Transportation Division in the
Community and Neighborhoods Department. The Council previously funded this item in CIP for a couple years. The
Administration recommends increasing the Streets Division’s base budget by $200,000. This item would be a one-time
appropriation from General Fund Balance. The next annual budget would then include the $200,000 as ongoing. Council
Members discussed the competitive CIP process, and that basic maintenance and safety funding better belongs in the
annual operating budgets of some departments. Any unused funds at the end of the fiscal year would lapse to General
Fund Balance.
The funding will be used for hiring contractors with specialized equipment. Examples of city-owned assets that could be
maintained include 1,010 bike racks, over three miles of green painted pavement, bike lanes, enhanced crosswalks, and
radar feedback signs. The Public Services Department and Transportation Division will develop optimal maintenance
schedules for these assets and evaluate potential equipment and staffing costs to bring the work in-house vs. the current
approach of using outside contractors.
A-10: Downtown Parking Pay Station Replacements ($135,993 from General Fund Balance)
The blue tower parking pay stations in the downtown are over a decade old and past the recommended useful life. This is
causing increasing maintenance costs and operations issues. The Administration issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) and
is evaluating the bid submissions. This item is being included in a budget amendment because of timeliness challenges
around equipment ordering and delivery windows. Based on the RFP responses, the Administration estimates a seven-
year payment schedule would be best. An initial half year payment would be this fiscal year and then larger payments
evenly spread across years two through seven (fiscal years 2025 – 2030). A shorter payment schedule or a one-time lump-
sum payment could result in savings because the total cost would be less than the seven-year payment schedule. However,
the larger upfront costs for a shorter schedule or one-time lump-sum payment would also reduce the General Fund
Balance more in the short-term.
New parking pay stations are expected to have features not available on the current older equipment such as pay by license
plate capabilities, public service information like events in the area, business and organization sponsored parking
validations, pay parking citations at a station, multiple languages, and pollution sensors. The old meters would be recycled
to the extent possible. New meters may be in new locations based on revenue evaluations for old station locations.
Policy Questions:
➢Public Education – The Council may wish to ask the Administration how the public, downtown businesses, and
other organizations will learn about the new parking pay stations. The Council may also wish to ask whether the
existing ParkSLC mobile app will continue, or a new app would be needed.
➢Parking Demand Management – The Council may wish to ask the Administration would the new stations allow
the City to improve parking demand management practices and whether funding would be needed to study
options such as variable pricing during peak hours, paying for shorter or longer time periods, real-time
information on where parking spaces are available (public and private), reservation-based parking spaces,
vending zones like food trucks, and supporting the potential pedestrianization of closing Main Street during
certain times.
A-11: Reappropriation for Rail Spur Removal ($205,000 from General Fund Balance to CIP Fund)
The Council originally approved this funding in Budget Amendment #1 of FY2023. A reappropriation is needed because
the funds were not used by the end of last fiscal year and lapsed to General Fund Balance. The rail spur at 600 West and
500 South was conveyed in 1997 by the City to a private party, with partial consideration for this conveyance being an
easement to construct, operate, and maintain a railroad spur and associated facilities. Since the rail spur has not been
used for over one year, the City is contractually obligated to remove it. There have been a couple similar rail spur removals
in recent years. The Administration stated this is believed to be the last rail spur removal in the area. Note that the budget
spreadsheet in the Administration’s transmittal mistakenly identifies this item as ongoing when the funding is one-time.
A-12: Police Officer Overtime Related to the Sanctioned Campground Pilot Program ($500,000 from
ARPA Funds Unused in Prior Fiscal Years)
This item would provide one-time funding for police officer overtime shifts at and in the area around the sanctioned
campground pilot program (“temporary shelter community”) at approximately 300 South and 600 West. It is expected to
operate until April 30, 2024. The overtime shifts would be voluntary so some might go unfilled. The overtime rate would
be $65/hour as an incentive for shifts to be filled. The Police Department will evaluate staffing levels to determine how
many officers are needed by shift (e.g., days, evenings, and nights). The Department will also utilize vacancy savings to
fund additional overtime shifts as needed. Over the five months of December through April, the $500,000 could provide
an average of five police officers working 10-hour overtime shifts per day. The actual staffing levels per day and time of day
will vary based on officers signing up for voluntary shifts, the volume of calls for service, proactive patrols, and other
factors.
At the time of publishing this staff report an ARPA reconciliation was pending to show which budgets were unused in
prior fiscal years and whether any more ARPA funding remains available for repurposing. The Council previously put $1.5
million from the General Fund into a holding account for potential expenses related to the temporary sanctioned
campground. All those funds remain in the holding account.
Policy Questions:
➢Where would officers be for overtime shifts? – The Council may wish to ask the Administration would officers be
inside the sanctioned campground, immediately around it, and/or how wide of an area around it would be
proactively patrolled?
➢Additional Funding Needs – The Council may wish to ask the Administration whether more funding is anticipated
to be needed for the temporary sanctioned campground’s operations, mitigating public safety issues, or other
related costs.
A-13: New Financial Grant Analyst FTE in the Finance Department for Grants Administered by the
Housing Stability Division ($46,643 from CDBG and $14,548 from ARPA)
This request would fund one FTE for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2024. The position is intended to oversee grants
administered by the Housing Stability Program. The proposed grant analyst will work under the direction of the Deputy
Director of Finance and will assist in the financial monitoring of multiple grants to ensure compliance with city financial
processes as well as state and federal grant requirements. The position will be split across two grant funding sources –
75% CDBG and 25% from ARPA. A job description for this position was included in the Administration’s transmittal. The
City has experienced a significant increase in the number and complexity of grant applications and grant awards over the
past few years. This trend is expected to continue as departments apply for more grants such as billions of dollars in
federal grants spread over multiple years from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act.
Historically, the City has not used all the available funding from CDBG to cover the costs of administering the program as
allowed under U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) regulations. There is anticipated to be enough ongoing
CDBG funding to help cover most costs related to this new FTE over the long-term. The remaining 25% of the costs may be
covered by other grant funding depending on how much the FTE directly works on those programs. The ability to use
grant funds for personnel expenses is often limited to hours spent working directly on the grant programs.
➢Policy question: The Council may wish to ask the Administration to provide metrics on the number of grant
applications and awards in recent years and are additional resources (e.g., software, FTEs, trainings) needed to
improve management of grants.
A-14: Consulting for Enterprise Billing Systems ($250,000 from the IMS Fund Balance)
This item was previously appropriated in Budget Amendment 5 of FY2023 but, due to delays in the RFP process, was
ineligible to be encumbered prior to the fiscal year end and fell to IMS’s fund balance. The RFP process is underway, and
the Department wishes to reappropriate this funding.
The Public Utilities Billing System (PUBS) was developed and expanded by IMS over the past two decades. The system is
reaching the end of life and needs to be replaced. In addition to Public Utilities, some General Fund departments use the
system, like Sustainability and Community and Neighborhoods. This funding is to hire a consultant to evaluate the City’s
needs and identify the best path for a smooth implementation of the system’s replacement. Microsoft support for the
current system is expected to end as soon as July 2024.
A-15: Mill & Overlay Pilot Program for Street Pavement Maintenance ($205,177 from the Quarter Cent
Sales Tax for Transportation Fund Balance and Transferring $955,177 to the Fleet Fund)
The Council approved $750,000 in FY2024 CIP from quarter cent sales tax for transportation funds to purchase an
asphalt paver and a cold-milling machine that do this type of pavement maintenance. In the FY2024 annual budget, the
Council also approved $130,000 ongoing from Funding Our Future for program supplies. The Public Services Department
was notified that the manufacturer increased prices after these appropriations were approved. $205,177 is needed in
addition to the $750,000 in CIP to purchase the two machines. The Department has previously rented these machines.
Purchasing the machines is estimated to be a more cost-effective option in the long term than continuing to rent.
This item would also swap the funding sources for two projects to better align funding eligibilities with project uses. At the
time of publishing this report, staff has requested information on the allowable uses of quarter cent sales tax for
transportation funds as equipment purchases were previously thought to be eligible. The Mill & Overlay equipment would
be shifted away from quarter cent sales tax for transportation funds to General Fund dollars and Class C (gas tax) funds
that were also approved by the Council in FY2024 CIP. An equivalent $750,000 for complete streets reconstruction
projects would be shifted away from General Fund dollars and Class C (gas tax) funds to the quarter cent sales tax for
transportation funds.
The Mill and Overlay provides a pavement maintenance option that is greater than filling a pothole or chip & slurry
surface treatments and less than a full street reconstruction. For example, cutting down a few inches into deteriorated
asphalt and removing a several foot stretch and then backfilling with new asphalt.
➢Policy question: The Council may wish to consider a straw poll for this item so the Department could proceed
with drafting contracts before the next price increase which is anticipated to be in mid-December.
A-16: The Road Home’s Family Hotel Winter Interim Plan ($300,000 from General Fund Balance)
This item would provide one-time funding to assist the State and The Road Home’s efforts to provide motel rooms to
families experiencing homelessness from December 2023 to June 2024. The motel vouchers could be considered a
stopgap option until a new family non-congregate shelter opens next spring / summer. This new facility will be in addition
to the existing Midvale Family Recourse Center or MFRC. The average cost is estimated at $600-800 per week for a hotel
room serving a family of four. Actual costs could be more or less depending on the size of a family and variable rates at
different hotels. A one-page summary of the plan is shown as the last page of the Administration’s transmittal. The Road
Home stated there are existing contracts with motels for 12 rooms and one case manager assigned to the program.
Additional case managers would be hired per 12 hotel rooms that are contracted to ensure adequate staffing to workload
ratios. A supportive services manager is also anticipated to be hired.
The Administration has requested a straw poll on this item to facilitate contract development in advance of the final
Council vote.
➢Policy Question: The Council may wish to ask the Administration what is the funding gap for the overall plan
and would the City’s $300,000 fill the existing funding gap? Adding up all the costs on the one-page summary
indicates the total cost could exceed $1 million. The Council may also wish to task what other entities are
contributing funding towards the plan?

D-1: Moving Funding for Downtown Central Precinct Tenant Improvements for North Temple Substation
and Downtown Central Project ($513,208 from CAN to Public Services)
Funding for the Downtown Central Precinct Tenant Improvements for North Temple Sub Station and Downtown Central
Project in the amount of $513,208 was added by the Council to the CAN budget during the budget decision making
process. However, this funding should have gone to Public Services since it will be the Facilities division that will be
managing the improvements. This item does not allocate any additional funding, but simply moves funding from one
department to another for the same work.
D-2: IMS FY 2023 Encumbrance Roll Forward ($4,269,083)
IMS has encumbered money that was expected to be paid out of the FY23 funds and either will need to be paid, or has
already been paid in FY24. These encumbrances are listed in the Carry Over Encumbrance reports. All of these items have
been approved for purchase by central finance in a prior year. These expenses will be paid for by the annual allocation that
IMS uses to collect its revenue on an annual basis.
D-3: Move Cultural Core Funding to Non-Departmental from Arts Council Cost Center ($250,000)
This item is to move funds from the Art’s Council Division to the Economic Development’s Non-Departmental budget.
This is an effort to align funding with the appropriate cost center within the new financial system.

Section I: Council-Added Items
I-1: Releasing Funds for Physical Security Improvements to City Hall ($154,000 from CIP Holding
Account)
In Budget Amendment #5 of FY2023, the Council put $1 million into a Capital Improvement Program or CIP Fund
holding account for one-time to be determined physical security improvements to City Hall. The Public Services
Department is requesting these funds in a budget amendment so the improvements could be done in tandem with current
earthquake repairs to minimize disruptions in the building. The total project cost is estimated at $240,886. The FY2023
annual budget included funding for building security which is $86,886 of the project cost. If the Council approves this
item, then the holding account would have a remaining balance of $846,000. The Council could discuss this item in a
closed session since the topic relates to security devices, personnel, and/or systems.

Section A: New Items
A-1: Fire Department Medical Response Paramedics GF $150,119.00
GF $10,400.00
Department: Fire Prepared By: Chief Karl Lieb /
Clint Rasmussen
For questions, please include Chief Lieb, Clint Rasmussen, Greg Cleary and Mary Beth Thompson
Current Status
The Salt Lake City Fire Department (SLCFD) currently operates three Medical Response Teams (MRTs) with another
funded at the Salt Lake City Airport beginning in January of 2024 for a total of four MRTs. Each MRT is comprised of 4
Firefighters (FFs), for a total of 16 FFs allocated and funded for the MRT program. All FFs currently allocated to the MRT
are Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs). By staffing a MRT with 3 EMTs and 1 Paramedic, rather than 4 EMTS, the
response capability would increase by
Replacing one of the EMTs as a Paramedic (Advanced Life Support or ALS) would increase the capability of the MRTs by
approximately 30% and allow them to perform more advanced patient assessments.
Paramedics are currently at a premium nationwide. Fortunately, SLCFD trains and remains appropriately staffed with
Paramedics on our Medic Engines (4-handed) for our optimal response model - two Paramedics on each of eight daily
Medic (ALS) Engines within SLC. These Medic Engines respond to the most serious medical and fire calls and should
remain staffed in this configuration as a 4-handed unit for maximum capability.
Proposal
This item it to establish 4 new FTEs (Medical Response Paramedics) and reclassify 4 existing FTEs (Firefighters) to
Medical Response Paramedics.
The SLCFD proposes to diversify our current MRT model by replacing and displacing a total of eight (8) MRT FF EMTs
with Medical Response Paramedics (SRPs). This would ideally staff one (1) Paramedic on each unit of four daily operating
MRTs.
The transition would expand the current MRTs response capability with an ALS component while maintaining the integrity
of the MRT as a FD resource responding from and residing within select SLCFD fire stations.
The SRPs would be civilian, potentially sworn, and eligible to participate in the Firefighters or Tier 2 Public
Safety/Firefighter retirement systems.
The SRPs would participate in a training regimen developed by the SLCFD for their specific role within our EMS response
model. SRPs will serve under a new job title, new wage schedule, and possibly as part of SLCFD’s Local 81 labor group.
Process
The SLCFD would realize eight (8) Medical Response Paramedics through a combination of additional FTEs and
conversion of existing FTEs:
1. SLCFD is requesting four (4) additional FTEs in the form of Medical Response Paramedics at a half-year cost $150,119
plus some start-up costs of $10,400. Full year funding for FY25 would be an additional budget increase of $142,519. No
new equipment (radio’s, tablets, vehicles, etc.) is required. These new positions would be funded for six months beginning
January 2024.
2. SLCFD would retain the option to convert four (4) existing vacant FF positions currently funded for the MRT to SRPs by
the end of calendar year 2023.
3. The remaining four FFs displaced by the four requested SRPs would be utilized to fill 4 -handed vacancies or additional
resources throughout Salt Lake City in an effort to reduce OT and consistently staff SLCFD heavy apparatus.

Department: City Attorney Prepared By: Katherine Lewis
For questions, please include Mary Beth Thompson, Greg Cleary, Katie Lewis
This funding is to establish and support four (4) new FTEs, creating the Legislative Division within the City Attorney’s
office. The primary focus of this division will be on legislative affairs, with special focus on the legislative session and the
various impacts to Salt Lake City. The proposed funding in the amount of $297,220.40 assumes the positions to be filled
for six-months in Fiscal Year 2024, with a hire date in January. The four (4) positions are to be ongoing, with a financial
impact of $594,440.79 annually beginning if FY25. The four proposed positions are as follows:
• Legislative Affairs Director (E34)
• Senior City Attorney (E39)
• Special Projects Analyst (E26)
• Administrative Assistant (N21)
The supporting Ordinance:
• Establishes that because the City Attorney manages the legal affairs of both the executive and legislative branches
of government, she reports to both the Mayor and Council chair, and can be removed at the discretion of the
Mayor.
• Clarifies that the City Attorney supervises the Recorder’s Office, Risk Management Division and Division of
Legislative Affairs.
• Clarifies that the City Attorney may retain outside counsel on behalf of the City, if she concludes that the City
Attorney’s Office has a conflict of interest, is unable, or is unavailable to perform that legal work for the City.
• Creates the Division of Legislative Affairs, which will be responsible for monitoring state and federal legislation
and engaging in advocacy, collaboration, and tracking of all legislative matters for the City.
• Establishes the director of legislative affairs, who will work with both branches of government on the City’s
legislative agenda, and will report to both branches of government on legislative priorities and policies.
This initial funding request accounts for one-time expenses for staff equipment such as computers ($12,000), funding via a
Non Departmental Transfer ($12,000), and a tenant improvement to established workspaces and necessary equipment
($20,000).

A-7: Access Control System Upgrade – Security GF $400,000.00
Department: Public Services Prepared By: Jorge Chamorro
For questions, please include Jorge Chamorro
The current access control system and devices across City buildings are now considered outdated and vulnerable, and staff
are proposing this be addressed before the system fails. This system is used for access badges issued to all City employees
to scan at certain doors to gain access to a given space. The Safety and Security Program proposes continuing the transition
to the S2 control access system as a City-wide standard.
With the recent allocation of funding from Council, the Public Safety Buildi ng and City Hall have upgraded their back-end
software. The funding requested for the next phase should transition Plaza 349 and the Justice Courts. Additionally, access
cards and card readers will be purchased for all four buildings. This project scope has been developed with staff from
various departments, including IMS, to ensure standards and needs are met. The estimated cost for this project is
$400,000.
A-8: Compliance Electric Vehicle Funds Transfer to Fleet GF ($20,000.00)
GF $20,000.00
Fleet $20,000.00
Department: Public Services – Compliance Prepared By: Erik O’Brien /
Julie Crookston
For questions please include Erik O’Brien, Julie Crookston, Nancy Bean, Denise Sorensen
Public Services - Compliance is requesting a transfer of $20,000 to the Fleet Replacement Fund helping cover the
difference in cost to purchase two electric trucks instead of the originally funded smaller vehicles.
Fleet has been presented with an opportunity to order these electric trucks. One of the vehicles is part of the replacement
cycle, upgrading the originally intended vehicle to a more capable one, and will allow for Parking Enforcement operations
to continue during winter snow events, especially in areas like the Avenues. Additionally, the extra cargo space is needed to
transport equipment such as pay station kiosks and equipment as needed. In addition to these advantages, the second

vehicle will provide adequate space to transport three (3) mitigation officers (FTEs recently approved) and their supplies
for our Long-Term Parking Mitigation Team. The addition of these 2 EVs will bring Compliance closer to their goal to have
a 100% electric fleet.
A-9: Road Marking Maintenance GF $200,000.00
Department: Public Services – Streets Prepared By: Jorge Chamorro
For question, please include Jorge Chamorro
Over the past few years the Transportation Division has been successful in obtaining funding for special road markings
through the CIP process, which include green paint on certain bike lanes .
After assessing the current inventory of assets made up of 1010 bike racks and 3.23 miles of green-painted bike lanes and
markings, staff has concluded that this ongoing maintenance need should no longer rely on the CIP process but rather be
added to the Streets operating budget. At this time the need does not justify upfront cost of equipment procurement,
Streets will develop a maintenance schedule and oversee a contract to perform the necessary maintenance work. If funding
is approved for this item, though most of the work would not occur in the winter, contract development and work
scheduling could be done in the meantime with work happening as weather allows.
The Streets Division is requesting $200,000 to be added to their budget for ongoing maintenance of road markings and
assets recently inventoried.
A-10: Pay Station Replacement GF $135,992.49
Department: Public Services/Finance
For questions please include Mary Beth Thompson and Jorge Chamorro
The current pay stations were purchased over 10 years ago. Due to their age, they are past the end of their useful life and a t
risk of failure. New pay stations will allow the City to modernize the services offered to end users. The new pay stations
will provide more features for the public including parking payment, information sharing about events going on city wide,
the capability to pay by license plate technology, potential pollution sensors, and other innovative features. The
modernization of the pay stations will allow for smoother staff operations and continued service to end users. City Finance
is recommending a 7-year amortization rather than using the General Fund for one-time payment.
The amortization schedule is attached and includes a 7-year payment schedule, with $135,992.49 due in Year 1, and
$271,984.98 due in years two (2) through year seven (7). This includes an interest rate of 4.60%. The Council may consider
a 5-year schedule which is also attached, with an interest rate of 4.77%.
This item is being brought forward with Budget Amendment 3 due to the Request for Proposal process and market
conditions around equipment. At the time of budget development, staff did not have clear insight into the cost or timeline
of pay station procurement and delivery. Following the completion of the RFP process, staff feel it is best to proceed with
the selected vendor for the reasons outlined above.

associated facilities. Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Easement and Boundary Line Agreement, executed on July 3,
2000, the easement shall terminate if the City ceases to use the rail spur for more than one year, and that the City shall
remove the related infrastructure at the City’s expense. Since the rail spur has not been used fo r over one year, the City is
contractually obligated to remove it.
A-12: Temporary Shelter Community (Sanctioned Camping) Misc. Grants $500,000
Department: Police Department Prepared By: Greg
Cleary/Shellie Dietrich
Staff is requesting a budget amendment in the amount of $500,000 to support startup costs associated with city efforts

A-15: Mill & Overlay Pilot Program - CIP Equipment Transp. Fund
($205,177.00)
CIP ($750,000.00)
Fleet Fund $955,177.00
Department: Public Services Prepared By: Denise Sorensen,
Julie Crookston, Greg Cleary
For questions, please include Jorge Chamorro, Dawn Valente, Mike Atkinson, and Mary Beth Thompson
Streets received notification in August that the Council had adopted the CIP application of equipment for the Mill &
Overlay program, totaling $750,000. As Streets began to coordinate with Fleet to purchase the equipment it became
apparent that the manufacturers ordering window for 2023 had already closed. The 2024 window has now opened,
however the manufacturer increased prices such that there is now a $205,200 deficit (includes make -ready). This item is to
request an additional $205,200 to cover the increase in price, as well as the transfer of the $750,000 from the CIP Fund to
the Fleet Replacement Fund.
The vendor has notified us that there will be another price increase, estimated at approximately $7,000 around mid -
December 2023. The next price increase will incur in July 2024, however if we do not have the equipment by Spring 2024
it will be very difficult to evaluate the pilot program as the equipment used during the first part of the fiscal year has been a
combination of shared and/or rented.
This item includes financial adjustments from the Transportation Fund (1/4 cent sales tax), CIP Funds, and the Fleet Fund
to ensure the most appropriate use of funds for the proposed capital equipment procurement. When initially preparing the
Capital Budget, the Mill and Overlay Maintenance Pilot Program was funded in the amount of $750,000 with the ¼ cent
sales tax or the “Transportation Fund”, which is to be dedicated to transportation related projects. However, after
consultation with city staff, it was determined that the ¼ cent sales tax is no t intended to support equipment expenses. As
a result, staff is reallocating the $750,00o to the Complete Streets Project, and is proposing to utilize an additional
$205,177 of available Transportation Funds to support the Complete Streets Reconstruction Project, where this funding
source is better aligned and is eligible for the given project.
This adjustment results in a reduction of general CIP funds needed to support the Complete Streets Reconstruction Project
in the amount of $750,000, which are to be transferred to the Fleet Fund for the capital equipment procurement in
support of the Mill and Overlay project. The end result of these adjustments includes the use of $205,177 of Transportation
Funds to support the Complete Streets Project.
A-16: The Road Home - Family Hotel Winter Interim Plan GF $300,000.00
Department: CAN Prepared by: Brent Beck, Greg
Cleary
For questions, please include Blake Thomas and Andrew Johnston
In support of The Road Home program, staff is proposing the use of up to $300,000 from General Fund Fund Balance to
assist the State by adding additional motel options for families ahead of the winter months. The goal of this program is to
expand support for families to step out of the cold into a sheltered situation until the opening of the Family Non-
Congregate Shelter in 2024. The use of $300,000 from GF Fund Balance is proposed following council action in Budget
Amendment #2, which allocated $1M back to Fund Balance, associated with the Discontinued Deeply Affordable Housing
Development.
Attached is the Road Home Family Hotel Winter Interim Plan which outlines the program in more detail, challenges the
program faces, staffing levels, and how additional funds will support the program.
The Administration is requesting that the Council hold a Straw Poll on funding this initiative to expedite the budget for
use in this program.

Section A: New Items
A-1: Fire Department Medical Response Paramedics GF $150,119.00
GF $10,400.00
Department: Fire Prepared By: Chief Karl Lieb / Clint
Rasmussen
For questions, please include Chief Lieb, Clint Rasmussen, Greg Cleary and Mary Beth Thompson
Current Status
The Salt Lake City Fire Department (SLCFD) currently operates three Medical Response Teams (MRTs) with another
funded at the Salt Lake City Airport beginning in January of 2024 for a total of four MRTs. Each MRT is comprised of 4
Firefighters (FFs), for a total of 16 FFs allocated and funded for the MRT program. All FFs currently allocated to the MRT
are Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs). By staffing a MRT with 3 EMTs and 1 Paramedic, rather than 4 EMTS, the
response capability would increase by
Replacing one of the EMTs as a Paramedic (Advanced Life Support or ALS) would increase the capability of the MRTs by
approximately 30% and allow them to perform more advanced patient assessments.
Paramedics are currently at a premium nationwide. Fortunately, SLCFD trains and remains appropriately staffed with
Paramedics on our Medic Engines (4-handed) for our optimal response model - two Paramedics on each of eight daily
Medic (ALS) Engines within SLC. These Medic Engines respond to the most serious medical and fire calls and should
remain staffed in this configuration as a 4-handed unit for maximum capability.
Proposal
This item it to establish 4 new FTEs (Medical Response Paramedics) and reclassify 4 existing FTEs (Firefighters) to
Medical Response Paramedics.
The SLCFD proposes to diversify our current MRT model by replacing and displacing a total of eight (8) MRT FF EMTs
with Medical Response Paramedics (SRPs). This would ideally staff one (1) Paramedic on each unit of four daily operating
MRTs.
The transition would expand the current MRTs response capability with an ALS component while maintaining the integrity
of the MRT as a FD resource responding from and residing within select SLCFD fire stations.
The SRPs would be civilian, potentially sworn, and eligible to participate in the Firefighters or Tier 2 Public
Safety/Firefighter retirement systems.
The SRPs would participate in a training regimen developed by the SLCFD for their specific role within our EMS response
model. SRPs will serve under a new job title, new wage schedule, and possibly as part of SLCFD’s Local 81 labor group.
Process
The SLCFD would realize eight (8) Medical Response Paramedics through a combination of additional FTEs and
conversion of existing FTEs:
1. SLCFD is requesting four (4) additional FTEs in the form of Medical Response Paramedics at a half-year cost $150,119
plus some start-up costs of $10,400. Full year funding for FY25 would be an additional budget increase of $142,519. No
new equipment (radio’s, tablets, vehicles, etc.) is required. These new positions would be funded for six months beginning
January 2024.
2. SLCFD would retain the option to convert four (4) existing vacant FF positions currently funded for the MRT to SRPs by
the end of calendar year 2023.
3. The remaining four FFs displaced by the four requested SRPs would be utilized to fill 4 -handed vacancies or additional
resources throughout Salt Lake City in an effort to reduce OT and consistently staff SLCFD heavy apparatus.

A-2: ARPA Employee Expenses Misc. Grants $14,225.00
Department: Finance & Economic Development Prepared By: Mary Beth Thompson
Funding in the amount of $14,225.00 is being requested to cover expenses for one grant employee for the remainder of the
Fiscal Year. Throughout the year, staffing levels have been in flux to support this ongoing need . The additional amount will

A-7: Access Control System Upgrade – Security GF $400,000.00
Department: Public Services Prepared By: Jorge Chamorro
For questions, please include Jorge Chamorro
The current access control system and devices across City buildings are now considered outdated and vulnerable, and staff
are proposing this be addressed before the system fails. This system is used for access badges issued to all City employees
to scan at certain doors to gain access to a given space. The Safety and Security Program proposes continuing the transition
to the S2 control access system as a City-wide standard.
With the recent allocation of funding from Council, the Public Safety Buildi ng and City Hall have upgraded their back-end
software. The funding requested for the next phase should transition Plaza 349 and the Justice Courts. Additionally, access
cards and card readers will be purchased for all four buildings. This project scope has been developed with staff from
various departments, including IMS, to ensure standards and needs are met. The estimated cost for this project is
$400,000.

Fleet $20,000.00
Department: Public Services – Compliance Prepared By: Erik O’Brien / Julie
Crookston
For questions please include Erik O’Brien, Julie Crookston, Nancy Bean, Denise Sorensen
Public Services - Compliance is requesting a transfer of $20,000 to the Fleet Replacement Fund helping cover the
difference in cost to purchase two electric trucks instead of the originally funded smaller vehicles.
Fleet has been presented with an opportunity to order these electric trucks. One of the vehicles is part of the replacement
cycle, upgrading the originally intended vehicle to a more capable one, and will allow for Parking Enforcement operations
to continue during winter snow events, especially in areas like the Avenues. Additionally, the extra cargo space is needed to
transport equipment such as pay station kiosks and equipment as needed. In addition to these advantages, the second

vehicle will provide adequate space to transport three (3) mitigation officers (FTEs recently approved) and their supplies
for our Long-Term Parking Mitigation Team. The addition of these 2 EVs will bring Compliance closer to their goal to have
a 100% electric fleet.
A-9: Road Marking Maintenance GF $200,000.00
Department: Public Services – Streets Prepared By: Jorge Chamorro
For question, please include Jorge Chamorro
Over the past few years the Transportation Division has been successful in obtaining funding for special road markings
through the CIP process, which include green paint on certain bike lanes .
After assessing the current inventory of assets made up of 1010 bike racks and 3.23 miles of green-painted bike lanes and
markings, staff has concluded that this ongoing maintenance need should no longer rely on the CIP process but rather be
added to the Streets operating budget. At this time the need does not justify upfront cost of equipment procurement,
Streets will develop a maintenance schedule and oversee a contract to perform the necessary maintenance work. If funding
is approved for this item, though most of the work would not occur in the winter, contract development and work
scheduling could be done in the meantime with work happening as weather allows.
The Streets Division is requesting $200,000 to be added to their budget for ongoing maintenance of road markings and
assets recently inventoried.
A-10: Pay Station Replacement GF $135,992.49
Department: Public Services/Finance
The current pay stations were purchased over 10 years ago. Due to their age, they are past the end of their useful life and a t
risk of failure. New pay stations will allow the City to modernize the services offered to end users. The new pay stations
will provide more features for the public including parking payment, information sharing about events going on city wide,
the capability to pay by license plate technology, potential pollution sensors, and other innovative features. The
modernization of the pay stations will allow for smoother staff operations and continued service to end users. City Finance
is recommending a 7-year amortization rather than using the General Fund for one-time payment.
The amortization schedule is attached and includes a 7-year payment schedule, with $135,992.49 due in Year 1, and
$271,984.98 due in years two (2) through year seven (7). This includes an interest rate of 4.60%. The Council may consider
a 5-year schedule which is also attached, with an interest rate of 4.77%.
This item is being brought forward with Budget Amendment 3 due to the Request for Proposal process and market
conditions around equipment. At the time of budget development, staff did not have clear insight into the cost or timeline
of pay station procurement and delivery. Following the completion of the RFP process, staff feel it is best to proceed with
the selected vendor for the reasons outlined above.

Instructions: Answer questions 1-12 on the Basic Separation of Duties Questionnaire using the
definitions provided below.
If all of the questions were answered “Yes” or “No” with mitigating controls (“MC”) in place, or “N/A,” the
entity has achieved adequate basic separation of duties. Question 1 of the Fraud Risk Assessment
Questionnaire will be answered “Yes.” 200 points will be awarded for question 1 of the Fraud Risk
Assessment Questionnaire.
If any of the questions were answered “No,” and mitigating controls are not in place, the entity has not
achieved adequate basic separation of duties. Question 1 of the Fraud Risk Assessment Questionnaire will
remain blank. 0 points will be awarded for question 1 of the Fraud Risk Assessment Questionnaire.
Definitions:
Board Chair is the elected or appointed chairperson of an entity’s governing body, e.g. Mayor, Commissioner,
Councilmember or Trustee. The official title will vary depending on the entity type and form of government.
Clerk is the bookkeeper for the entity, e.g. Controller, Accountant, Auditor or Finance Director. Though the
title for this position may vary, they validate payment requests, ensure compliance with policy and budgetary
restrictions, prepare checks, and record all financial transactions.
Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) is the person who directs the day-to-day operations of the entity. The
CAO of most cities and towns is the mayor, except where the city has a city manager. The CAO of most local
and special districts is the board chair, except where the district has an appointed director. In school districts,
the CAO is the superintendent. In counties, the CAO is the commission or council chair, except where there is
an elected or appointed manager or executive.
General Ledger is a general term for accounting books. A general ledger contains all financial transactions of
an organization and may include sub-ledgers that are more detailed. A general ledger may be electronic or
paper based. Financial records such as invoices, purchase orders, or depreciation schedules are not part of the
general ledger, but rather support the transaction in the general ledger.
Mitigating Controls are systems or procedures that effectively mitigate a risk in lieu of separation of duties.
Original Bank Statement means a document that has been received directly from the bank. Direct receipt of
the document could mean having the statement 1) mailed to an address or PO Box separate from the entity’s
place of business, 2) remain in an unopened envelope at the entity offices, or 3) electronically downloaded
from the bank website by the intended recipient. The key risk is that a treasurer or clerk who is intending to
conceal an unauthorized transaction may be able to physically or electronically alter the statement before the
independent reviewer sees it.
Treasurer is the custodian of all cash accounts and is responsible for overseeing the receipt of all payments
made to the entity. A treasurer is always an authorized signer of all entity checks and is responsible for
ensuring cash balances are adequate to cover all payments issued by the entity.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY
TO:City Council Members
FROM: Ben Luedtke, Senior Analyst
DATE:January 16, 2024
RE: Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 Library Budget Amendment #1
ISSUE AT-A-GLANCE
The library system provides in-person services at a main library downtown, seven branch libraries around the
City, and a wide variety of digital services online. The Council’s role in the library budget process is unique to
other City enterprise funds. The Library Board sets the policy for operations. The Council is tasked with
reviewing and approving the annual budget, midyear budget amendments, and setting the library’s tax rate.
The Mayor is recommending the Council approve the Library Board’s proposed Budget Amendment #1. It has
two items with a total expense of $229,670 and one new full-time employee (FTE) for the Safety Team.
1% Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) to All Library Employees and Higher than Budgeted
Medical Insurance Premiums ($166,240 from Library Fund Balance)
A 1% COLA increase is proposed for all library employees. This would be in addition to the 3% COLA approved
in the FY2024 annual budget. Like the City’s General Fund, personnel costs are typically around two-thirds of
the library’s ongoing costs. (Staff note: Benefits for Library system employees are not the same as City
employees, so cost of living adjustments are frequently different than City employee cost of living adjustments).
This item also includes additional funding to cover higher than budgeted medical insurance premiums which the
library was notified of after the Library Board had voted to recommend the annual budget. The annual budget
estimated a 7% premium increase but the actual increase was more than double that at 14.9%. See the Additional
Info section for more about the library’s employee medical insurance. Standard budgeting practice is to include
sufficient funding for both of these items in conjunction with the annual budget, but the timing of information,
combined with the communication during the Council budget process, did not allow for that for FY2024. The
Council may wish to ask the Library Staff how to ensure budget for both of these items in conjunction with the
annual budget for FY2025 (see policy question #1).
One New Safety Associate FTE ($63,430 from Library Fund Balance)
An additional safety associate FTE would bring the Library Safety Team up to a total of 14 members which
includes: a manager, two supervisors, eight full-time associates, and two part-time associates. The requested
$63,430 would be the full year cost (see policy question #2). The library system is experiencing an increase of
criminal activity and misbehavior incidents. See the Additional Info section for a chart of annual incidents in
the past three years and background information from the library. The Safety Team is located at library
branches with higher levels of incidents and not posted at every branch location. Library locations are typically
open longer than government building business hours; the Main Library is open 62 hours a week and branch
locations are typically open 56 hours a week. Staffing Safety Team members at all library locations during all
hours of operations would require additional FTEs. The library stated they are “piloting a ‘mobile patrol’ model
to more efficiently support our branches and respond to incidents.”
Project Timeline:
Set Date: January 9, 2024
1st Briefing: January 16, 2024
2nd Briefing: February 6, 2024 (if needed)
Public Hearing: February 6, 2024
Potential Adoption Vote: February 20, 2024
Page | 2
$395,310 Revenue Above Recommended FY2024 Annual Budget
The Council was notified in early June that revenues for the library were $395,310 more than estimated in the
FY2024 annual budget recommended by the Library Board and the Mayor. This was caused by $202,103 of new
growth in property tax revenue and $193,207 from the judgment levy. There was neither a contingency
recommendation about how to use revenue above nor below estimates (See policy question #3). The Council put
these revenues into the library’s Fund Balance for FY2024. This budget amendment proposes to fund the two
expense items described above from the library’s Fund Balance. The FY2024 budget projected a Fund Balance of
16.7%. The library has a minimum target of keeping Fund Balance at or above 16% which is approximately
equivalent to two months of operating expenses. The Library’s Fund Balance would remain above 16% after the
expenses proposed in this budget amendment.
POLICY QUESTIONS
1.Mid-year Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) – The Council may wish to discuss with the Library
and Administration the long-standing practice of considering a COLA / general pay increases as part of
the annual budget process and not in midyear budget amendments. The Council’s flexibility is maximized
when all the competing budgetary needs are considered together during the annual budget.
2.Requesting Full-year Funding for New Safety Associate FTE – The Council may wish to ask the
library why a full-year of funding is proposed when only half of the fiscal year remains. The half-year cost
would be $31,715 and would leave the other half in the library’s fund balance.
3.FY2025 Contingency for Actual New Growth and Judgment Levy Revenues – The Council may
wish to request that the Library and Administration include contingency recommendations in the next
annual budget for how to handle actual new growth and judgment levy revenues for the library are more
or less than expected.
4.Increased Criminal and Misbehavior Challenges – The Council may wish to ask the
Administration what additional resources would help address the increasing number of incidents
involving criminal activity and misbehavior that are not appropriate for a library. The FY2024 budget
included $200,000 for expansion and enhancements of security cameras and devices at the Main Library,
surrounding plaza, and some branches which are in process of being implemented. The library anticipates
requesting funding in future budget openings for additional security improvements (infrastructure,
technology, and FTEs).
ADDITIONIAL & BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Library Employee Medical Insurance
The library provided the below points summarizing insurance offered to full-time benefit-eligible employees:
- The Library health and dental insurance provider is PEHP and is part of the Large Employer Risk Pool.
- The Library only offers a High Deductible Health Plan with a contribution to the Health Savings Account.
- Medical premiums for employee-only coverage are paid 100% by the Library while medical premiums for
employee plus children, spouse, or family are paid 90% by the Library and 10% by the employee.
- Basic life insurance for employee is paid 100% by the Library.
- Dental premiums are split 50/50 between the Library and employees. Additional life insurance, vision and
other ancillary insurance is also offered at the employee’s cost.
In-house Licensed Clinical Social Worker Providing Services and Coordinating Referrals
In December 2022, a social worker began staffing the Main Library providing direct client services, referrals to
outside agencies, de-escalation, and assessing the needs of library patrons and staff. The library provided the
below points summarizing the social worker’s impact in the past year:
- Number of suspensions for potentially preventable behavior by engaging with Social Services team
between Mar & Aug 2023: 219/313 (70%). Ex: drug abuse, disruptive behavior, shouting, offensive odors
- We are considering a proposal based on this project for additional staff to support the community’s Social
Services needs and better connect them to the resources that can help their situations.
- The goal is to have a regular presence of Social Service options, whereas the previous model relied on one

partner, who was only here a few hours a week.
- Hours spent providing direct services between May & October 2023: 53.25
- Hours spent providing direct services between Aug 30, 2023 & Nov 3, 2023: 77

Increasing Criminal and Misbehavior Incidents in the Library System
The library provided the below chart and points comparing annual incidents across the library system from 2021
through 2023. The blue columns are violent incidents, red columns are safety incidents, and green columns are
medical calls. Note that the red safety incidents include the other two categories. All three categories show year-
over-year increases from 2021 through 2023.
The library provided the below points summarizing safety incident trends in recent years:
- Violent incidents have increased almost 3x since last year. This includes credible threats of violence -
verbal and physical, as well as physical altercations.
- Medical incidents have increased, that is due to the fact that we have made substantial investments in our
safety personnel becoming EMT certified. These can mostly be addressed immediately and prevent the
need to call an ambulance or another City Service.
- Overall, incidents have increased, and unfortunately this doesn’t appear to be an isolated trend. Initially,
we had hoped the spike at the beginning of 2023 was due to a particularly long and harsh winter, but as
the year has progressed, the number of incidents has remained high.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
When the Salt Lake City Council (the Council) adopted the Library’s FY24 budget, the Library
was informed that the new growth used in projecting property taxes revenues would generate
about $200,000 more than the estimate used in preparing the budget. In addition, the amount
allowed for the judgment levy was $193,000 higher than was budgeted. The Council adopted the
higher amounts, which allowed the $393,000 difference to go to the Library’s fund balance.
Given the additional property tax revenue anticipated in FY24, Administration is proposing
amendments to the FY24 budget for the following items, totaling $229,670. The following memo
provides additional detail and information on this item.

MEMO | November 20, 2023
To: Salt Lake City Library Board of Directors
From: Deborah Ehrman, Interim Executive Director
Re: Budget Amendment 1 for FY2023-24
When the Salt Lake City Council (the Council) adopted the Library’s FY24 budget, the Library was
informed that the new growth used in projecting property taxes revenues would generate about
$200,000 more than the estimate used in preparing the budget. In addition, the amount allowed for the
judgment levy was $193,000 higher than was budgeted. The Council adopted the higher amounts,
which allowed the $393,000 difference to go to the Library’s fund balance.
The Board may recall that the FY24 budget included a three percent total increase for longevity and
COLA. In addition, the percent increase used to budget the employee health insurance was about half
of the actual percent increase once quotes were received.
Given the additional property tax revenue anticipated in FY24, Administration is proposing amendments
to the FY24 budget for the following items:
1. An additional one percent increase to the COLA amount for all Library employees and an
adjustment in the employee health insurance rate to reflect the actual increase. The cost of
these two adjustments would be $166,240.
2. An increase of one FTE for the Safety team. The Library is experiencing a significant increase in
the number of safety related incidents across the system, and branches have expressed a need
for additional support from the Safety team. The cost of one additional safety associate would
be $63,430.
