Dear Chairman Staler:
Attached for your review is a report updating you on the status of the
City and County Building construction fund. You will note that we are
currently projecting that the project will come in under budget by
approximately $107,000. These are, however, still projections. It is •
possible that there will be additional unanticipated expenditures in excess of
the $928,197 we currently have encumbered for completion of various aspects of
the project. Expenditures will continue at least through November. The
negative $36,597 shown under "Additional Projected Expenditures" is a result
of a reduction in the Jacobsen contract, largely attributable to the need for
fewer materials than was originally projected.
We are scheduled to brief the Council on this report on August 10. If
any Council Members have any questions they would like answered prior to the
formal briefing, they should feel free to contact either me or Gordon Hoskins.
Sincerely,
Linda Hamilton
Director of Finance

Attachment #1
Regarding Petition 400-731, the administration recommends the approval of
the rezoning to Commercial "C-3A" subject to the following:
1. The proposed development shall be processed as a Commercial Planned
Unit Development, and obtain approval from both the Planning Commission and
the Board of Adjustment.
2. The rezoning of the properties shall only become effective once the
building permits are in order and ready to be issued.
3. That the Planning Commission be requested to hold an informal hearing
to recommend a six month moratorium on commercial development within the
area along Parley's Creek that is master planned for Residential Mixed Use
and the mixed use area north of Parley's Creek. During this time, the
planning commission, property owners, and business community will develop a
proper zoning district to regulate new development assuring residential
opportunities.
4. The petitioner provide a public open space element for pedestrian and
bicycle circulation connecting Fairmont Park/ Elizabeth Sherman Parkway/
Sugarhouse Park/ 1200 East/ Parley's Creek. The open space connecting
element shall consist of a space not less than 8 feet wide and contain
elements of pedestrian amenities such as trees, benches, lights, etc.
designed in a theme consistent with the Sugar House Beautification Project.
5. Construction of Wilmington Avenue similar as designed in Alternative 1
of the "Parking and Circulation Study". The design speed is recommended to
be lowered to 25 mph. The City should participate with the costs of these
improvements. Various options for the construction and funding should be
explored with the administration.

Council Members also dis-
cussed their desire to establish
criteria for the approval of the
PUD. Roger Cutler, city atorney,
pointed out that the city had an
ordinance dealing with the estab-
lishment and approval of commer-
cial PUDs. He recommended that
the Council express any concerns
regarding the PUD through legisla-
tive intent statements.
The Council discussed attach-
ing legislative intents as condi-
tions to the rezoning in order to
resolve various concerns about the
development. Craig Peterson
suggested that the Council approve
the rezoning subject to the crite-
ria he outlined previously.
Mr. Wright indicated that
Planning' s intent was that the
construction of Shopko would
trigger the rezoning of the resi-
dential properties. Mayor
DePaulis said the administration
would work to solve the problems
associated with this project. Mr.
Cutler said the legislative in-
tents would define for the admin-
istration where the Council wanted
this project to go.

CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
JULY 18, 1989
ATTACHMENT 1
Peaarding Petition #400-732, the administration supports the planning
commission's recommendation that the city close and sell the public streets
and alleys in the area located between Simpson Avenue and Interstate 80 and
between Highland Drive and 1300 East. However, we would modify the
recommendation as follows:
1. We would recommend the streets and alleys be closed and sold to
adjoining property owners, with the exception of Simpson Avenue, and that
the closure be effective once all residential occupancy has ended.
2. We would recommend that the City Council table the closure of Simpson
Avenue for reconsideration after the Shopko building permit is issued.
(This action could permit the issuance of the building permit for Shopko
without the planned unit development process and without the Board of
Adjustment action. )
3. We would recommend that the City Council consider a legislative intent •
that the Mayor, in negotiating the transfer of the city property due to the
closure of the public ways, should consider an exchange of public benefits,
in lieu of cash. The Mayor could consider the following public amenities
as compensation for the public streets and alleys, in negotiating With
Clark Financial:
•
a. Public access for vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles through the
Ashton Avenue area.
b. Pedestrian access to the core of Sugarhouse through a promenade
from the existing and proposed centers, with lighting/ benches, and
drinking fountains.
c. Landscaping and tree requirements greatly in excess of that
required by C3A zoning, providing protection for the urban forest of Salt
Lake City.
d. Possible equity position in the project through the Salt Lake
Redevelopment Agency.
e. Off site storm drainage detention capacity.
f. Architectural compatibility with the thematic features in the
public way improvements in the Sugarhouse district.
g. Installation of acceptable terminus on Stringham Avenue for
existing businesses. •

Mayor DePaulis and City Council Chair Willie Stoler, on behalf of the Salt
Lake City Council, will present a certificate of appreciation to the Salt Lake
Area Explorers for organizing the "Exploring Spring Clean" which collected
three tons of trash in May.
Over one hundred fifty participants set out on Saturday, May 5th to specific
areas designated by the Public Works Department. Collecting old tires,
bottles, cans, papers, and other debris, the cleanup crews placed the items in
440 gallon garbage barrels which were delivered and retrieved by the Streets
Division.
Stanton Miller, President of the Salt Lake Area Explorers - Boy Scouts of
America, initiated the project to provide a positive focus for youth, as well
as civic benefit. Miller and his executive committee secured donations from
local businesses to provide trash bags, T-shirts, and a free picnic lunch for
all the "Exploring Spring Clean" participants.
The project was so successful that the Explorers and Salt Lake City are
interested in organizing an annual event, which would target cleanups for •
other neglected streets, sidewalks, and other areas of the City.

Re: Petition 400-740 - Ruiz Rezoning Request
Dear Craig:
Attached please find Petition 400-740 from Ms. Gloria Ruiz of Cafe Silvestre
requesting Salt Lake City to rezone property located at 145 North Redwood Road
from Residential R-6 to Commercial C-1 classification. The proposed use is a
family style sit-down restaurant featuring mexican food. The project is
abutted by a Cash Saver service station on the south, vacant property to the
west, Gertie Avenue to the north and Redwood Road to the east.
The proposed use and site plan also meet the urban design criteria identified
in the master plan to be considered when evaluating commercial rezoning
requests including; community need for and support of the project, street
location to accommodate additional traffic, provide adequate parking, open
space, setbacks and buffers, new construction not conversion of existing
building, and will not negatively impact neighboring residential uses.
At their regular meeting July 13, 1989, the Planning Commission voted to
recommend approval of this request to the City Council to rezone this property
from Residential R-6 to Commercial C-1 with the rezoning to become effective
upon the approval of a building permit within one year from the date of
approval by the City Council.

PETITION 400-740 FROM MS. GLORIA RUIZ REQUESTING TO REZONE PROPERTY" AT 145 N.
RE DWIDOI.) ROAD FROM RESIDENTIAL "R-6" TO COMMERCIAL "C-1"
WH VJI
This is a request from Ms. Gloria Ruiz requesting Salt Lake City to rezone
property located at 145 North Redwood Road from Residential "R-6" to
Commercial "C-1". The site is situated about 265 feet north of the
intersection of North Temple and Redwood Road. The proposed use is a family
style sit-down restaurant featuring mexican food. The project is abutted by a
Cash Saver service station on the south, vacant property to the west, Gertie
Avenue to the north and Redwood Road to the east. The other corners of North
Temple and Redwood Road are occupied by a Circle K convenience/gas store on
the northeast, a Rainbo service station and Holiday Inn on the southeast,
Denny's restaurant on the northwest and the Cash Saver service station on the
southwest.

BACKGROUND /ii ///, /*` / . //fX
The present depth of the Commercial "C-I" zoning is 263 feet running north
from North Temple then changes to Residential "R-6" . Originally Gertie Avenue
was located along this present zoning boundary but has since been relocated
north 155 feet to its present location. This portion of the North Temple
commercial strip is the narrowest commercially zoned property in the vicinity.
ANALYSIS
The Northwest Community Master Plan calls for this area to remain as a buffer
between residential and commercial uses but allows for coiumercial, zoning
expansion to accommodate development proposals. Such commercial uses are to
be oriented toward North Temple or Redwood Road and are to be singular in
development character. Neighborhood or community oriented conuuercial uses are
encouraged in this area. The petitioner has three other restaurants located
throughout the valley. Until approximately a year and a half ago the
petitioner had a similar restaurant located in the Rose Park area but due to
leasing problems had to vacate the building. She has since purchased this
property and proposes to construct her own building.
The proposed use and site plan also meet the urban design criteria identified
in the master plan to be considered when evaluating commercial rezoning
requests including; community need for and support of the project, street
location to accommodate additional traffic, provide adequate parking, open
space, setbacks and buffers, new construction not conversion of existing
building, and will not negatively impact neighboring residential uses.
Ms. Ruiz's representative, Mr. Jay Hansen, attended the April 6, 1988 North
Redwood Community Council to discuss the proposed use and site plan. The
response was very supportive of the proposal. There were several residents
who live on Gertie Ave. and Harold Street who were in attendance and expressed
their support of the proposal.
The project has been reviewed by the appropriate City departments. The site
plan as presented complies with all site design standards and the reviewing
departments recommend approval of this request.
'DOG ID 1' IGN
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council
approval of this request to rezone from Residential "R-6" to Commercial "C-1"
the property located at 145 North Redwood Road with the rezoning to become
effective upon approval of a building permit within one year from the date of
approval by the City Council.

APPLICATION FOR ZONING AMENDMENT - ADDENDUM
RE: 145 North Redwood Road
Salt Lake City, Utah
1. The site is situated about 265 feet north of intersection of
North Temple Street and Redwood Road. The intersection is a
well-developed commercial corner with a Circle K and a
Burger King built on the northeast corner within the past
year. Across the street east is a Kentucky Fried Chicken.
The other corners are occupied by a Rainbo Service Station
and Holiday Inn (SE) , Denny's restaurant and other
commercial development (SW) , and a Cash Saver Service
Station and private club (NW) . The subject site is abutted
by the Cash Saver property on the south, the private club
property on the west, Gertie Avenue on the north and Redwood
Road on the east. It is our opinion that the property lends
itself to commercial development and is not well suited to
any kind of residential development.
2 . The recent quality commercial developments at this
intersection give a strong indication of the future
commercial strength of the area.
3 . The site will be used for the development of a family style
sit-down restaurant featuring mexican food . The
architectural style will be southwestern or Spanish style
with a residential appearance. The owners currently operate
a restaurant at 3041 East 3300 South in Salt Lake City, 280
West 7200 South in Midvale and 3524 South 2200 West in West
Valley City.
4 . It is our opinion retaining the present residential zoning
would mean that the property would remain undeveloped
because residential use is not appropriate in the area.
5 . At a meeting of the North Redwood Community Council April 6,
1988 , the proposed use was presented along with a site plan.
The response was totally supportive of the proposed use of
the property. Many were present who live in the immediate
neighborhood, including some who live west of the site on
Gertie Avenue and Harold Street. All of the response was
very favorable.
6 . A site plan of the development is included with this
presentation.

Bicycle Ordinance
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
STAFF RECOMMENDATION BY: Cam Caldwell
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Amend Title 2, Chapter 10, Section 020 of the
City Code regarding the power of the Chief of Police to enable him to donate
up to five lost or stolen bicycles per year to individual charities.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The state code has recently been amended authorizing
police chiefs throughout the state to donate unclaimed bicycles to charities.
The state code does not set a limit on the number of bicycles which may be
donated to any given charity. Council Members were concerned about bicycles
being available to young children in the semiannual police auction. They were
concerned that the auction would provide enough bicycles for those who would
otherwise be unable to purchase a bicycle. Chief Chabries indicated that he
would not donate more than five bicycles to any charity in any given year.
Council Members thought that it would be in the Chief's interest to have that
restriction included in the actual wording of the ordinance.
STAFF ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION: I spoke with Greg Hawkins of the City
Attorney's Office and he has made the change in the ordinance which limits the
number of bicycles donated to any single charity to five per year. These
charities may obtain additional bicycles from other Salt Lake County police
agencies if they have an unusual situation.
RECOMMENDED MOTIONS: I move that the City Council amend Title 2, Chapter 10,
Section 020 of the City Code to authorize the Police Chief to donate up to
five bicycles per year to qualified charities.
ANTICIPATED OPPOSITION: None.

Re: Petition No. 400-723 Submitted by Avis Rent-A-Car
Recommendation: That the City Council hold a non advertised hearing on
August 1, at 6:20 to discuss the proposed ordinance pertaining to
relocatable office buildings. The petition 400-723 was submitted by Avis
Rent-A-Car requesting Salt Lake City to allow a longer time for relocatable
offices building so that they may be used during the actual construction
phase of a commercial project.
Availability of Funds: Not applicable
Discussion and Background: The appropriate City Departments have reviewed
this request and agree that the 365 day limitation does place unnecessary
restrictions on businesses that are maintaining operations during the
construction of a new building. They recommend that the following be added
to the current ordinance:
1. Permits for the relocatable building should not be issued until after
permits for the new construction are issued.
2. The relocatable building shall be removed within 30 days of issuance
of the temporary Certificate of Occupancy.
3. Fees shall be the same as for the 365 day permit
4. The relocatable building shall not be occupied for residential use.
Legislative Documents: The City Attorney's office has prepared the
necessary ordinance and is ready for your action.

Dear Craig :
Returned herewith is Petition No. 400-723 by Avis Rent-A-Car System, Inc.
requesting Salt Lake City to amend the ordinance pertaining to relocatable
office buildings to include a provision to allow a longer time through the
actual construction phase of a commercial project. We agree that the 365 day
limitation does place unnecessary restrictions on businesses that are desirous
of maintaining operations during the process of constructing a new building.
We hereby respectfully recommend that the city amend this ordinance to include
a provision or exception for an extended time frame for relocatable buildings
that are intended to accommodate businesses during the construction phase of
new buildings.
The following conditions should be incorporated into the ordinance amendment :
-Permits for the relocatable building should not be issued until
after permits for the new construction are issued.
-The relocatable building shall be removed within 30 days of issuance of
the temporary Certificate of Occupancy.
-Fees shall be the same as for the 365 day permit.
-The relocatable building shall not be occupied by a residential use.
This amendment should not result in any administrative problems and it will be
a positive step in furthering our efforts to accommodate economic development.
Since this regulation is in the Building and Construction Section of the City
Ordinances, we will not refer it to the Planning Commission for approval. We
should send this directly to the City Attorney for ordinance preparation and
on to the Mayor and City Council for the adoption process.
Please call if you have questions.

Dear Mayor f Paulis:
As you are aware, the Airport Authority has initiated processes for
furling and constructing a multi-level parking structure. When depleted, the
ground level of this structure will house the Airport's car rental
concessionaires. These concessionaires are currently located in the long-term
parking area at the airport.
BecausP certain of these concessionaires have experienced additional
space requirements in their existing facilities, the kcal managers have in
the past received conditional use permits from the City to erect ielocatable
office buildings on Airport property. Under current City Code, these permits
are one year in duration and nonrenewable. Because the parking structure is
not anticipated to be completed until early 1992, the auto rental agencies
have need to maintain these relocatable offices until such time as we relocate
the concessionaires into the parking structure itself.
I am enclosing a request fiun Frank Jones, City Manger for Avis, that
City Crr1e be amended to accommodate a longer permit time when a c miercial
project is undertaken. I fully support this request for the reasons I have
outlined in this letter and would accordingly respectfully request that
appropriate processes be initiated for this modification of City code.
If I can provide additional information or clarification, please do not
hesitate to call me.

RE: Revision of Off-Street Parking Policy -
Dear Craig :
Revision of the city ' s Off-Street Parking Policy was discussed on
the April 27 , 1989 Planning Commission meeting . The Planning
Commission has recommended adoption of the new Off-Street Parking
Policy and with the assistance of the City Attorney they
recommend ordinance changes to the City Council that would -
effectuate this new policy. The Planning Commission motion was
ratified on their May 11 , 1989 meeting .
The purpose of the new Off-Street Parking Policy is to modernize
the parking lot layout dimensions and provide better guidance in
parking lot design. Enclosed are copies of the staff report and
minutes of the Planning Commission meeting. Within the staff
report is a discussion of ordinance changes recommended for
modification. If you have any questions , please contact either
myself or Everett L. Joyce.
Sincerely,

Staff Report to the Planning Commission regarding
Policy for Off-Street Parking Design and Layout
OVERVIEW
Present off-street parking design guidelines were established in
March of 1974. The purpose of the proposed off-street parking
policy is to modernize the parking lot layout dimensions and
provide better guidance in parking lot design.
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
Please read the attached staff report from the City
Transportation Engineer for background and analysis information.
This report includes the proposed off-street parking policy and
recommended ordinance changes with regard to off-street parking.
RECOMMENDATION
The planning staff has reviewed with the City Transportation
Engineering staff the proposed changes to off-street parking
design standards. The staff supports updating the city's parking
design standard. With incorporation of the identified changes
the planning staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt
the proposed off-street parking policy.
It is also recommended that the Planning Commission forward to
the City Council the updated policy and recommend that the City
Council adopt the proposed ordinance changes necessary to bring
the Salt Lake City Zoning Ordinance into concurrence with the new
off-street parking policy standards.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE SALT LAKE CITY OFF-STREET PARKING POLICY
J3 acky ound
The current Salt Lake City Zoning Ordinance defines a parking space as "a space within or on a
building lot or parking lot designed for the parking or storage of one automobile. For the purposes
of this title, the area required to park one automobile is an area of one hundred and eighty square
feet, together with adequate ingress and egress drives" (21.04.360). This leaves a lot to the
imagination in regard to the total parking lot design. In addition, the gradual reduction in
automobiles dimensions makes a 180 square foot (typically 9'x 20') stall more than adequate. The
purpose of this new off-street parking policy is to modernize the parking lot dimensions and give
better guidance in parking lot design.
Design Automobile
The first step in parking design is the determination of a design vehicle. An 85th percentile vehicle
is used based on a vehicle population of 60% standard size cars and 40% compact size cars. This
means that the design values will accomodate 85% of the vehicle population. It is impractical to
design for the largest vehicle (100th percentile vehicle) because of the increased cost for the larger
dimensions or for the average vehicle (50th percentile vehicle) because this design would be
inadequate for half of the population. The 85th percentile value is commonly used in transportation
design. Standard size design vehicle dimensions are 6'7"x 18'4", about the size of a 1983 Buick
station wagon. The design vehicle dimensions for a small vehicle are 5'7"x 14'8", about the size
of a 1983 Chevrolet Citation. For the 60% standard/40% compact vehicle population, the vehicle
dimensions are 6'3"x 17'0", the size of a 1983 Chysler New Yorker. These are the design vehicle
dimensions upon which the Salt Lake City policy is based.
Stall Size
Stall width is based on the design vehicle width and door opening clearances. For the 60%
standard/40% compact vehicle population, the minimum stall width is 8'3". This width takes into
account the fact that large vehicles will not normally park next to each other. This allows the large
vehicle parked next to a smaller vehicle to share door opening space and maneuvering room into
the stall. When a stall is placed next to a wall or column, an additional foot of width shall be added
to account for the loss of shared door opening space and loss of maneuvering room into the stall.
Handicap stalls shall be 13 feet wide.
Development of the Salt Lake _.y Off-Street Parking Policy 2
The stall length has been determined by the length of the design vehicle plus 6" to account for the
tendency of parkers not to pull tight to a wall or curb. 17'6" is the minimum stall length allowed
by Salt Lake City.
Parking stalls shall be painted to a length equal to 80% of the vehicle projection in order to
encourage drivers to pull up further into the stall.
Module Dimensions
The parking module is the clear width provided for the parking of vehicles and an adequate access
aisle. In most cases, the module contains two rows of parking with an aisle between. The
dimensions of the module should allow for both passage through the lot and turning into a stall in
one movement.
To allow for flexibility in the design of parking modules, a level of service approach is used to fit
modules within varying structural dimensions. A level of service "A" would allow very easy
access of all vehicles into stalls in one movement. Level of service "E" would require almost all
vehicles to make at least two movements to manuever into a stall. `A level of service"B" is used in
the Salt J-ike City policy. The allowable stall widths range from a minimum of 8'3" to 9'0". For
every inch that the stall width increases, the module width may be reduced by three inches and the
level of service maintained.
Surface lots without wheel stops shall add one foot of additional aisle width because of the
difficulty in keeping vehicles aligned, especially in snow conditions.
Aisle width reductions
The values calculated for aisle width reductions are based on the rotation of the design vehicle to
the desired angle rather than the rotation of the stall dimensions. These are the result of reduced
vehicle projection into the aisle.
Interlock reductions are created where adjacent modules; set at the same angle and not separated by
walls or columns, places the bumper of vehicles in adjacent rows next to each other.
Overhang reductions occur where the module (measured from curb face to curb face) allows for the
April 4, 1989
Development of the Salt Lake( Off-Street Parking Policy 3
front of the vehicle to overhang the curb. The curb must be six inches or less in height to allow the
•
vehicle to overhang it.
Parking Lot Circulation
Maneuverability around the end of the aisles (aisle cross-overs) is dependent on the minimum
acceptable turning radii of the vehicle. For one-way traffic, the minimum inside radius is 12 feet
and the minimum outside radius is 25 feet. For two-way traffic, the minimum inside radius is 12
feet and the minimum outside radius is 36 feet. If perimeter parking is provided, then the
cross-over aisle dimension shall be the greater of that required for access to the stall or that required
for turning.
Driveways
Driveway width is determined by the zoning of the property. Driveway location and the number of
driveways shall meet Transportation Division policy and be approved by the Transportation
Division. In general, the number of driveways should be kept to a minimum and the driveways
should be located as far from adjacent intersections as possible.

OFF-STREET PARKING
All off-street parking designs shall conform to the accompanying dimensions chart and be approved by the
Transportation Engineer or his/her designee.
Parking angles between 0° and 45° or between 75° and 90° are not allowed. Other angles between 45° and
75° are allowed and the dimensions for those angles not shown shall be determined through interpolation.
Use of a public alley as aisle access to individual parking spaces is prohibited in residential zones and
where zoning requires landscaped rear or buffer yards. Approval of the Planning and Zoning Division is
required in all other areas. If a public alley is used as the aisle or access to adjoining parking spaces, the
spaces or projection must be lengthened as necessary to provide a total alley or aisle width of 20 feet for 0°
(parallel) through 75° angle parking and 23 feet for 90° angle parking." This requirement shall apply to all
new uses and developments except single unit dwellings and duplexes.
Handicap stalls shall be a minimum of 13 feet wide. The minimum number of handicap stalls required is
determined in ordinance 21.84.050, Handicapped Parking Spaces.
Maneuverability around the end of the aisles (aisle cross-overs) is dependent on the minimum acceptable
turning radii of the vehicle. For one-way traffic, the minimum inside radius is 12 feet and the minimum
outside radius is 25 feet. For two-way traffic, the minimum inside radius is 12 feet and the minimum
outside radius is 36 feet. If perimeter parking is provided, then the cross-over aisle dimension shall be the
greater of that required for access to the stall or that required for turning.
Parking stalls adjacent to columns or side walls shall be one foot wider than the standard dimensions to
accomodate door opening clearance and vehicle maneuverability.
Stalls shall be striped to 80% of the vehicle projection to encourage puffing further into the stall.
One foot of aisle width shall be added to lots without curb stops.
Substandard stalls shall not be allowed in new uses or developments even when they are not needed to meet
parking requirements. Designated compact car stalls shall not be allowed. The dimensions given in the
policy are for a 'one size fits all'design.
Parking lots should make provisions for the secure parking of bicycles.
Driveway widths shall meet the criteria of the city zoning ordinance and city site development ordinance.
The Transportation Division will review and approve the number and location of driveways. In general, the
number of driveways shall be kept to a minimum and the distance from adjacent intersections maximized.

issues. He added that the Planning Commission can recommend that the
ordinance amendment be approved, that the ordinance amendment be denied, or ar
informal hearing can be scheduled. Mr. Johnson said that when the -Planning
Commission forwards it recommendation, the City Council would have to hold a
public hearing on this matter.
Mr. Willie Littig, an HLC member and the Chair of the Avenues Community
Council stated that the Avenues and the Capital Hill area have the highest
density of historic homes anywhere west of the Mississippi River, and,
therefore, the density on the committee from this area is justified. He added
that the volunteerism is also higher in the avenues area for community council
activities than in other areas. Mr. Littig said he is concerned that if they
are limited to certain numbers of committee members from each district, the
message being sent to the community will discourage the high rate of interest
they experience in this area.
Mr. Howa said his concern is that people in other areas may not be getting the
opportunity to serve. Mr. Littig stated that there were current vacancies and
no one was beating down the door to get on the committee from any of the
districts. Mr. Ulrich pointed out that the majority of the case load before
the HLC is also from District 3 which justifies the density of the
representation.
Councilmember Hardman requested that everyone look beyond the present'
ordinance and take the necessary measures to insure fair representation from
other areas as other historic districts come into being.
Mr. Howa moved to hear the matter in the format of an informal hearing. Ms.
Cromer seconded the motion; all voted "Aye." The motion passes.
Discuss Parking Standards/Geometries •
Mr. Steve Meyer from the Transportation Division was present for this
discussion. Mr. Johnson stated that the Planning Staff's plan is for space
conservation. He stated that a copy of the Off-Street Parking Policy
statement had been sent out in the last packets for review. A copy is filed
• with the minutes. The present parking standard as per the Zoning Ordinance
for one automobile is an area of one hundred and eighty square feet, together
with adequate ingress and egress drives. The purpose of the new off-street
parking policy is to modernize the parking lot dimensions and give better
guidance in parking lot design.
Mr. Schumann said he was concerned that automobiles seem to be getting larger.
Mr. Meyer explained that if the stall size is reduced in width, the aisle
space will be increased for maneuverability. Mr. Meyer added that going to
the overall dimensions rather than single stall dimensions give developers
more flexibility in designing parking lots. He added that design values
accommodate 85% of the vehicle population. Stall width is bawd on the design
vehicle width and door opening clearances. Mr. Meyer stated that handicapped
PC MINUTES
April 27, 1989 Page 19
stalls will remain 13 feet wide and stalls next to columns and walls will have
an additional foot of width due to lack of shared door opening space.
Mr. Howe expressed his concern about a developer presenting a design the
Planning Commission feels will not work, and asked if they would have any
control over these situations. Mr. Johnson said the ordinance states that "No
parking lot or parking area shall be constructed without first obtaining a
permit authorizing such construction. No permit shall be issued without firs
securing the reccnwendations of the City Transportation Engineer and the Cit\
Planning Conenission and no permit shall be issued until the applicant has
comalied with the provisions of this chapter." Mr. Johnson stated that if the
Planning Commission does not like what the developer is presenting, they do
not have to approve it.
Mr. Howa moved to reconund the adoption of the Off-Street Parking Policy and,
with the aid of the City Attorney, Mr. Bruce Baird, reconund an ordinance
change to City Council. Ms. Cromer seconded the motion; all voted "Aye." The
motion passes.
Discuss Planning Commission Appointments
This agenda item was tabled for another meeting.
Discuss Taverns in the C-4 Zoning District
Mr. Schumann stated that Mr. Mike Martin had recently appeared before the City
Council and discussed the problem of Class C taverns in the C-4 zone. The
City Council has requested that the Planning Commission examine this issue and
make a recommendation to them on this matter. Mr. Johnson stated that if the
idea is to eliminate Class C taverns in the C-4 zone, the simplest approach
would be to draft an ordinance to that effect. The area covered would be frcm
165 feet west of West Temple to 165 east of 200 Fast, and fran 165 south of
400 South to North Temple.
Ms. Cromer asked what would happen to the existing taverns in this area if the
ordinance is rewritten. Mr. Johnson said they would become nonconforming uses
if the Zoning Ordinance is changed but the licensing ordinance is not. Mr.
Johnson added that if the licensing ordinance is also changed, once the
current tenant relinquishes its license, no other tavern can occupy the site
since the license ordinance does not allow for nonconforming u'r.
Mr. Schumann stated that the police had been called more than 500 times to
handle disorderly conduct at two of the Class C taverns in the C-4 zone within
the past year.
Mr. Wright pointed out that one of the issues needing to be addressed is where
these taverns will relocate if they are not allowed in the C-4 zone. Mr.
Wright further stated that Mr. Bruce Baird, the City Attorney will look at the
Budget Opening 6-3
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
STAFF RECOMMENDATION BY: Cam Caldwell
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Amend the budget to establish a UDAG Revolving
Loan Fund.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: A revolving loan fund needs to be established to
receive proceeds coming from UDAG project loan repayments. This money may
then be used to fund other UDAG projects. Once the money is repaid to the
City, the City may recycle the revolving loan payments without being required
to comply with Davis-Bacon wage rates.
The draft policy accompanying the Administration's staff report should not be
acted upon by the City Council at this time. _ Council staff will provide
recommendations regarding this draft policy after additional meetings with the
Administration.
STAFF ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION: This fund is essential in generating the
funds which will be used to loan Clark Financial $900,000 for the proposed
SHOPKO development in the Sugarhouse area.
RECOMMENDED MOTIONS:. I move that we close the public hearing.
I move that we establish an Urban Develop Action Grant (UDAG) Revolving Loan
fund and appropriate $423,719.41 to the fund and decrease the UDAG repayment
fund by the same amount, and adopt an implementing ordinance.

1 . It is against federal regulations to obligate "future"
receipts .
2 . A loan granted before all repaying UDAGs are closed out
will trigger Davis/Bacon wages to be paid' on construction
projects . City Center is currently closed and Rick
