Minutes:
Sam Owen provided an introduction and reiterated the Council’s questions from the
previous briefing.
Bill Wyatt and Brady Fredrickson provided information regarding:
• A Request For Proposal (RFP) was recently released for the third phase of
concessions and estimated timeline for bringing in new vendors
• Parking and transportation systems to and into the Airport, including an analysis
that was conducted on Utah Transit Authority’s (UTA) ability to get customers to
the Airport, and reasoning on the need for additional asphalt surface parking and
how it enhanced security of the Airport
• Facility requirements – segments of passenger activity levels,
taxiway/aircraft/terminal capacities, parking efficiencies, Federal Aviation
Association (FAA) standards, etc.
• Balanced Airport – number of daily operations, annualized annual delay, annual
enplanements, and aircraft gate information
• Airfield, terminal, General Aviation, environmental initiatives/sustainability, cargo
and support, and landside information, concepts, and proposed improvements
• Short-term (0 to 5-year), mid-term (5 to 10-year), and long-term (11 to 20-year)
projects
Council Member Puy said it was important to note the Airport’s continuing commitment
for advocating and seeking new opportunities regarding public transportation options,
and along with the Council’s support and outside partnerships, it was important to find

solutions to the issue. Brady Fredrickson indicated the Airport was 100% committed to
the effort noting they had recently met with UTA to further discuss ride sharing options
and would continue to consider other various options.
Council Member Puy inquired if the Airport was monitoring contractors to ensure they
were fulfilling their commitments (providing quality work) and following the rules, as it
was important to set the example as the Capital City. Bill Wyatt said from an
Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) perspective it was the safest large
project in the State, a strong safety program was in effect, there was tremendous
oversight, most contractors were based from the Wasatch Front, and asked that they be
notified in regards to any complaints regarding contractors.

3.Ordinance: Rezone at 856 West 1300 South ~ 5:20 p.m.
20 min.
The Council will receive a briefing about a proposal that would amend the zoning of the
property at 856 West 1300 South Street from R-1/5,000 (Single-Family Residential
District) to FB-UN1 (Form Based Urban Neighborhood District). The parcel is currently
occupied by a single-family residential dwelling. This proposed zoning map amendment
change will facilitate potential redevelopment of this parcel into a single-family attached
residential project. The zoning map amendment does not require an amendment to the
Westside Master Plan. Consideration may be given to rezoning the property to another
zoning district with similar characteristics.

Minutes:
Brian Fullmer provided an introduction to the briefing.
Lex Traughber provided information regarding:
• Details of the project request
• Future proposed use of six, for-sale townhomes (one existing single family dwelling
on the lot would be removed)
• Existing and proposed zoning
• Location of the property and zoning of the surrounding area
• Planning Commission having forwarded a positive recommendation for approval
Council Member Fowler inquired if the proposed zoning was appropriate for the area
(due to current lack of off-street parking and FB-UN not requiring parking on the lot)
and said she wanted to ensure a development agreement was in place for an attainable
price point (should the Council agree to the zone change).
Council Member Dugan expressed concern that the proposed zoning could allow the
height of a building (up to 30 feet high) to be out of place in a single-family one-story
neighborhood and how the setbacks would impact the neighboring properties.
Council Member Puy said the water table was high in the area (many residents required
sump pumps for their basements) and wanted to ensure the Planning Department was
aware of this, expressed general support of density in the area and especially if it
supported for-sale family housing, and wanted more information on the proposed price
points. Brian Fullmer said the concerns would be relayed to the applicant and more
information on proposed price points would be obtained.
Council Member Dugan said he was interested in the answers to the five policy questions.
Brian Fullmer said more information would be gathered from the applicants regarding
the policy questions and clarified that the current zoning (R-1-5000) would allow a
pitched roof up to 28 feet and the proposed zoning (FU-BN1) would allow a roof up to 30
feet.
Council Member Wharton said he was interested in the policy question regarding how
many bedrooms would be provided in the proposed development. Brian Fullmer assured
the Council the information would be obtained.

to facilitate the efficient processing of land use applications relating to the

Minutes:
Mayor Mendenhall noted the resolution had been five years in the making and said
the contract would be executed at the end of the 2022 calendar year, it provided surety to
City residents and to the Port on key issues – how the City and the Port would work
together, that they would work together, and how the City would invest future increment
in a few key priorities including the westside community, environmental mitigation and
protection efforts or projects that prioritized and minimized environmental impacts,
committed the City to traffic/community/environmental studies for the area to
understand a baseline and use the information to make strategic decisions on an annual
basis in concert with the Utah Inland Port Authority (UIPA), ensured the City would
continue receiving 10% increment to dedicate to affordable housing, and most
importantly that it was removed from the purview of the Utah State Legislature.
Katherine Lewis provided information regarding:
• History of the law change:
◦ in the 2022 Legislative Session the law was changed with focus on the
percentage and the approved uses of the City-generated tax increment that
was being diverted to the Inland Port Authority
◦ previous to HB 443 being enacted the Port Authority had the right to take
75% of the City-generated tax increment for the next 25 years to use on any
Inland Port Authority Board approved projects appropriate for the
development of the Port Authority jurisdictional land (approximately 16K
acres of property both north and south of I-80) on the City’s Northwest
Quadrant (NWQ)

• Details of House Bill (HB) 443:
◦ changed the percentage and use of City-generated tax increment that would
be paid to the Inland Port Authority over the next 25 years if the City,
Redevelopment Agency (RDA), and Inland Port Authority executed a
contract by December 31, 2022
◦ if the contract was executed the law stated the percentage of City-generated
tax increment would be 25% set for 25 years plus an additional 40% for the
first tax-year beginning after January 2, 2023, and then decreasing by 2%
every year until 2029 (at that point the percentage would be 28%), and then
from 2030 (for a period of seven years) it would decrease to 10%, in 2037
(for a period of 11 years) down to 8%, and then at 2047 to 0%
◦ the new law also provided for the City-generated tax increment to be
distributed for environmental mitigation projects (40%), community
mitigation projects (for communities adjacent to the Authority’s
jurisdictional land/west of the TRAX line) (40%), and for economic
development (20%)
• Utah Inland Port Authority and Salt Lake City contract overview:
◦ requirement to be in place by December 31, 2022 that set out a process on
how City-generated property tax increment would be spent;
◦ a requirement that UIPA consult with City on what the City-generated
increment earmarked for community and environmental mitigation
would be spent on;
◦ a requirement that the Redevelopment Agency (RDA) spend the 10% of
increment it receives for affordable housing;
◦ a requirement that the City facilitate the efficient processing of land use
applications
• Components of the draft interlocal agreement:
◦ City committing to processing of land use applications (including one full-
time employee),
◦ acknowledges that the parties all desire certainty on the percentage and use
of City-generated property tax increment,
◦ creates annual process for the expenditure of the City-generated increment
earmarked for community and environmental mitigation,
◦ agrees that in year one, parties will retain consultant(s) to create
assessments on community impacts/health impacts,
◦ agrees that these assessments will guide future expenditure of funds
earmarked for community/environmental mitigation,
◦ identifies a City “NWQ Review Group” of staff/stakeholders to evaluate
potential projects,

both the Council and RDA would need to approve the contract
Council Member Puy expressed an important issue of considering the east boundary of
the train lines (both commuter rail and hauling rail) so that it was inclusive of the

community mitigation money distributed to the area and sought clarification to ensure
both were included in the statute/contract.
Council Member Fowler inquired if the contract would allow for addendums, further
defining/making adjustments as time dictated (such as adjusting boundaries). Katherine
Lewis reiterated that one of the main objectives of the contract was to work together with
the Port Authority to identify community mitigation projects that were a priority for all
parties and believed they would be open to discussing changes.
Council Member Dugan asked for clarification on the powers over the expenditures for
the mitigation dollars. Katherine Lewis said that the law stated the contract would
identify the process for how the Port Authority would spend the environmental and
community mitigation money and a requirement that the Port Authority consult with the
City in determining how to spend the two tranches of money.
Council Member Puy said this was a momentous occasion for the City, the community he
represented needed these protections, and expressed gratitude for the work done to
secure the contract as well as gratitude to Council Member Victoria Petro-Eschler for her
work/efforts to include the voice of the westside communities.
Council Member Valdemoros left the meeting at the close of this agenda item.
