Nick Tarbet provided a brief introduction to the item.
Cindy Cromer spoke regarding a recent Planning Commission meeting regarding
affordable housing strategies, noted the possibility of unintended consequences was
significant, and the need for an effective enforcement program.
Jason Wessel speaking as the Chair of The Human Rights Commission, spoke to the
Commission’s involvement with Thriving In Place and was happy to see its initiatives
coming forward, and as the Vice President of The Westside Coalition, expressed cautious
optimism about the initiatives for the City’s westside, specifically involving anti-
displacement and anti-gentrification.
Judi Short spoke to the desperate need of affordable housing in the City, asked the
Council to work on training and controls for the permit counter, and to review projects
being built to ensure quality units were being added in the City.
Lynn Schwartz spoke to the need for more affordable housing and questioned if the
changes that pertained to the single-family zone was the way to accomplish it, cautioning
it would instead diminish home-ownership and encourage more rental properties.
Jim Webster spoke regarding damages to his property due to the placement of an
Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) next door and questioned the need for the affordable
housing incentives if neighbor involvement/notification was not present.
Merrilee Morgan spoke to her heritage and history in Utah, the need for affordable
housing, and asked the Council to help maintain the preservation of historic districts with
respect to new development along transportation routes.
Kimball Young spoke regarding owner-occupied data/statistics for the City, the

including such benefits as lower crime, safer streets, better home maintenance, etc.
David Leta spoke on behalf the East Bench Community Council, summarized comments
previously sent to the Council regarding the affordable housing initiatives (AHI), noting
opposition to the current changes to the single-family zoning and the allowance for
multiple-unit buildings but supported a change to only allow duplexes/twin-homes and
certain detached accessory units.
Sarah Jolley noted that renters also paid property taxes via landlords, and noted the
importance of density and capacity with respect to affordable housing incentives.
Lynn Pershing spoke to the ways the proposed affordable housing incentives
(AHI) were flawed; density not equaling affordability, the proposed AHI being in
conflict with the City’s sustainability policies, and the lack of housing type choices (rental
properties were more prolific than single family home-ownership).
Janet Hemming, Chair, Yalecrest Neighborhood Council spoke regarding density not
