Laura Briefer provided information regarding:
Salt Lake Water Supply Outlook – 2024
•Salt Lake City’s water service area:
◦Serving drinking water to more than 360,000 people,
◦Includes all of Salt Lake City and large portions of Mill Creek, Holladay, and
Cottonwood Heights, small portions of South Salt Lake City, Murray, and
Midvale
◦Stormwater and sanitary sewer service, etc.
•Determining annual water supply outlook:
◦Current conditions
◾above normal snowpack in water sheds
◾no listed drought in our region
◾soil moisture appears improved
◦High probability of average or above watershed yields this year
◾98%-112% of average for local Wasatch Mountain watersheds
◾Little over a month prior to the start of the water year
•Big Cottonwood Creek (2022-2024):
◦Providing about 20-25% of water supplies annually
◦2022 annual yield was 20,700 acre-feet, 2023 yield was 48,000 acre-feet,
and estimated yield for 2024 was 35,000 acre-feet
•Precipitation and temperature outlook (via the National Weather Service), both
being factors in water supply and water demand
•Reservoir health:
◦Deer Creek Reservoir being most critical to the City, providing 30-35% of
water supplies annually and reliable water during droughts, 96% full as of
February, 14 2024
◦Little Dell and Mountain Dell Reservoirs in Parleys Canyon were also
important for water supplies and flood control
•Great Salt Lake:
◦Current level was 4193.4 feet (elevation level, not depth of the lake)
◦United States Geological Survey (USGS) information regarding lake levels
and the health of the lake (metrics based on wetlands, biology, land use,
recreation, economics, and safety
•Water demand and conservation:
◦Water conservation was necessary for overall water resiliency now and in the
future
◦Great Salt Lake remained in peril although water supplies looked good
◦Communities would be asked to continue to conserve water
Council Member Young inquired if contributions from Salt Lake City watersheds to the
Great Salt Lake (GSL) were tracked. John Wells said it was tracked to a certain degree,
but could be tracked better as far as metrics for usage and what was released back to the
Lake, and a good majority of GSL contribution came from the City’s water reclamation
facility and metrics were available for that. Council Member Young expressed the
importance of the data and as a possible conservation tool for her constituents to ensure
they’re doing what they can to help contributions to the GSL.
Resolution: Authorizing Transfer of Foreign Trade Zone ~ 3:15 p.m.
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL

Council Member Puy inquired in regards to releasing water from Utah Lake, if there was
any information shared with organizations that worked along the Jordan River. Laura
Briefer said the Jordan River Commission had just formed the Jordan River Watershed
Council with the purpose to make more information available to communities, and could
so due to their close connection to communities along the Jordan River.
Jesse Stewart added that water released from Utah Lake (to the GSL) started a couple
of weeks ago, the City was working closely with the Utah Lake Water Users Association,
the Lower/Upper Jordan Commissioners and Salt Lake County Flood Control, and
roughly 480-500+ cubic feet per second (CFS) was being released right now and could
increase over the next several months as more leases came through from the Deer
Creek/Jordanelle system.
Council Member Petro requested more information on the safety metric detailed in the
GSL analysis from the USGS, and if/how those factors could affect westside
neighborhoods of the City. Laura Briefer said she would provide more information
regarding the metric.
5.Authority
20 min.
The Council will receive a briefing about a resolution that would transfer Salt Lake City’s
Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) grantee status to the World Trade Center Utah (WTC Utah).
The Administration is requesting this transfer to take advantage of staff capacity and
other resources at WTC Utah.
Allison Rowland provided a brief introduction to the Resolution.
Lorena Riffo-Jenson, Peter Makowski, and Jonathan Friedman (CEO, World
Trade Center Utah – WTC Utah) provided information regarding:
•History:
◦Foreign Trade Zone #30 (FTZ #30) approved by the FTZ Board in May 1977
◾Allowed companies to reduce or defer taxes and duties on imported
products
◾Served Northern Utah communities with a 60-mile/90-minute drive
time from the City
◦Approved for Alternative Site Framework (ASF) in 2017, reducing
application time and adding City fee
◦Past operators/businesses: Cabela’s, Scott Sports, Red Wing Shoes
•Current operator: Specialized Bicycle Components from Salt Lake City, a bicycle
manufacturing facility who established their FTZ subzone in 2021, and the City was
currently working with them for a new location near the Salt Lake International
Airport (to be finalized this year)
•Future operator: Albion Minerals from Ogden, Utah, a nutraceutical manufacturer,
completing their application in 2024
•Next steps and future of FTZ #30:
◦Request support from the Council to provide a letter to FTZ Board to transfer
FTZ #30 to WTC Utah
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL

◦FTZ Board supports WTC Utah’s application and transfers Grantee Authority
◦WTC Utah could support in-house consulting, enhanced service and
marketing, saving money and resources for companies interested in the FTZ
•WTC Utah being a private, non-profit organization, existed to help Utah companies
grow internationally
Council Member Puy expressed excitement and support for the change and added that he
would be interested in receiving regular reporting regarding the program to ensure City
cooperation.
Council Member Lopez Chavez expressed support of the FTZ, as it further anchored Salt
Lake City as a critical regional player, not just within Utah, but in the surrounding states
as well.
6.Ordinance: Landscaping and Buffers Chapter Text
Amendment Follow-up ~ 3:35 p.m.
15 min.
The Council will receive a follow-up briefing about an ordinance that would amend
various sections of Title 21A of the Salt Lake City Code pertaining to Landscaping and
Buffers chapter amendments. The proposed amendments would seek to reduce water
consumption, enhance the urban forest, and improve air quality and green infrastructure
city-wide. The proposal would also seek to clarify, simplify, and reorganize the
landscaping and buffer chapter to be more user-friendly. The City Council may consider
modifications to other related sections of the code as part of this proposal.
For more information visit tinyurl.com/SLCLandscapingAndBuffers.
Jennifer Bruno indicated there were several changes and clarifications requested by
the Council that had been included/addressed within the Staff Report, and the last
unresolved issue was enforcement for those who had already installed artificial turf with
currently 10 open enforcement cases that were on pause until the Administration could
clarify/establish enforcement options.
Nanette Larson provided information regarding:
Landscaping & Buffers, Chapter 48 Follow-up
•The current Landscaping and Buffer Chapter prohibits artificial turf in required
yard areas (front yard, corner side yard, and buffer areas) through an
administrative interpretation, not specifically called out in the code
•The Central Utah Water Conservancy District had allowed for artificial turf in the
rear yard and the current/proposed modifications to the Landscaping and Buffer
Chapter did not prohibit artificial turf in the rear yard
•The current landscaping chapter required 33% vegetation in the front/corner/side
yards (all rock landscaping was prohibited)
Council Members discussed enforcement options for the current 10 cases of artificial turf
enforcement, including:
•Fairness of exempting these properties when other properties were made to be in
compliance
•Sunsetting/remediation plan/program for those under current enforcement
MINUTES OF THE SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL
Tuesday, February 20, 2024

•A sequenced strategy to address artificial turf now and future legislative intents to
address other landscaping enforcement issues
Laura Briefer said although Public Utilities was not involved in the enforcement
aspect, she was sympathetic to setting precedent on zoning enforcement and suggested
further discussion between Public Utilities and the Administration to envision a
recommendation that struck a balance regarding enforcement.
Council Member Wharton asked Public Utilities and the Administration to look into
further enforcement options and to include the Attorney’s Office to ensure future
situations were clear and consistent.
Michaela Oktay explained that a sunsetting process/plan would prove complicated
from an enforcement aspect.

20 min.
The Council will receive a briefing from the Government Finance Officers Association
(GFOA) Consultant about the recently completed financial risks and reserves analysis.
Mary Beth Thompson and Shane Cavenaugh (Government Financial Officers

Risk-Based Analysis of General Fund Reserve for Salt Lake City
•Council having approved $75K for risk assessment in 2018
•Background/history of the GFOA (established in 1906)

available outside of the budget for use if the resources appropriated inside of the
budget are insufficient, offering protection against unplanned, unavoidable costs

or losses.
•Defining risks the City was subject to: shock vs. stress – reserves being an
appropriate tool for shocks because temporary recovery period matches with non-
renewable nature of reserves
•Examples of natural and human made catastrophes/shocks:
◦Wildfires
◦Earthquakes
◦Tornados and strong winds
◦Floods
•Revenue instability (recessions and pension): sales tax (40%), property taxes
(29%), other economically sensitive revenues (9%), all other revenues (22%)
•Determining amount of exposure to risks/how risks were analyzed: Monte Carlo
computer simulation used as standard practice in industries like insurance
(around since the 1950s)
•Data to build the simulation:
◦SLC’s own historical experience
◦Historical experience in a wider region
◦SLC Finance & Public Safety staff (calibrated estimators)
◦Third party experts (earthquake and county flood experts, etc.)
•Consideration of all the risks analyzed
•Bond rating agency expectations (SLC having a goal of maintaining AAA bond
rating)
•Implications:
◦Reducing the “savings account” or the “insurance policy” would make it
harder to meet rating agency expectations
◦SLC could borrow from enterprise funds or internal service funds in an
emergency
◦General Fund having a role in backstopping some aspects of SLC
operations so must be able to stand alone to an extent
•Additional factors considered:
◦FEMA/other reimbursements
◦Commercial insurance
◦Taxbase impairment
◦Opportunity costs
◦Spending cuts
◦Annual surpluses and deficits
•SLC having relatively small chance of reaching critical threshold in coming years,
should not have difficulty meeting rating agency expectations, SLC’s reserves
were simulated to remain stable with very slight growth over a ten year period
•Next steps:
◦Determining/considering the Council’s/City’s risk attitude/appetite
◦Council/Administration to determine preferred amount of reserves based
on risk appetite
◦SLC Council/Administration to consider a comprehensive reserve policy
