I,Darin Piccoli,Chairperson of the Business Advisory Board,hereby determine that conducting the
Business Advisory Board meeting at an anchor location presents a substantial risk to the health and safety
of those who may be present at the anchor location. The World Health Organization,the President of the

and the Mayor of Salt Lake City have all recognized a global pandemic exists related to the new strain of
the coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2.
Due to the state of emergency caused by the global pandemic,I find that conducting a meeting at an
anchor location under the current state of public health emergency constitutes a substantial risk to the
health and safety of those who may be present at the location.

• Budget Updates—The Council plans to pass the budget on June 15th,2021. There will be a
special Council meeting on June 13th,2021 at 3pm to continue discussions concerning the budget.
Economic Development Announcements
TLUR—Outdoor Dining Updates
• Director Kolendar thanked BAB members for helping the Business Development team work on
two efforts:
1. Preserve the ability to have temporary structures
2. Parklets
He explained that the Mayor signed a temporary land use restriction which allows temporary
structures to remain in place for another 6 months. The Council and Administration both put
support behind this,and this was due to the BAB and its recommendations. Mr. Kolendar and Mr.
Makowski are having continued discussions concerning parklet situation. He added that they
investigated the temporary land use first because of timing sensitivity. They are now
concentrating their efforts on parklets.
COVID Recovery Resources
• Director Kolendar wanted to remind the BAB that Economic Development staff have put together
resources available for the business community in one centralized location on the Economic
Development website. He then asked BAB members to take a look at it and see if there are any
additional resources that should be added to the website.
Why DED Future Presentation
• Mr. Kolendar stated that staff has been working on its economic development policy and wanted
to get BAB's endorsement prior to it being presented to the City Council. He reminded BAB
members that they had already reviewed the information prior and their feedback has been
incorporated. He explained he would be sending a revised presentation back out, for additional
comments.
Delivery Services Update from Attorney's Office
• Ms. Reichgelt gave an update on the delivery services that were discussed during a previous
meeting,where BAB suggested a regulation put into place where food delivery companies needed
a contract with any restaurant in order to deliver for them. After having discussions with the
Attorneys Office and the Business Licensing director she was made aware that this regulation
cannot be done as it falls outside City's jurisdiction and must be done through State. She stated
she would meet with the Utah Restaurant Association and the Salt Lake Area Restaurant
Association and to see what the appetite of legislators might be to regulate this. She added that
educating businesses on their power to negotiate with the delivery companies may be a better way
than trying to have the State step in.
Board Announcements
Stateroom Concert Series at Deer Valley
• Chairperson Piccoli reminded everyone that the Stateroom Presents is announcing shows for the
Deer Valley Concert Series.
Open Streets
• Mr. Deitsch said Open Streets has done very well with attendance with even a bar owner saying
they had their highest sales number to date. The Downtown Alliance are trying to figure out the
best ways to get better metrics and tracking.
• Ms. Reichgelt said the Arts Council has put in a lot work into activation with all the bars and
restaurants. There are live performances all weekend which is a great part of Open Streets and
hopes this encourages more people to come out and participate.
BAB Subcommittees
• Chairperson Piccoli sent an email to the BAB members last week which provided an overview of
pursuing the mission that BAB members created at the beginning of 2021. In the email it had the
initial look of the work groups that were discussed beforehand. There was no reply on the email
and not a ton of responses when the idea of subcommittees was brought up in the last BAB
meeting. One work group that came out of the last BAB meeting would be actively reviewing the
City Council agendas. Mr.Bennett and Mr. Deitsch volunteered to be in this work group but
Chairperson Piccoli wanted more input from the BAB members in creating more work groups.
Ms. Rice said she would be willing to sit in the small business group and Ms. Gunn said she
would join it too. Chairperson Piccoli also wanted a work group that could prioritize and address
the charge of the BAB and clean up the bylaws which Vice Chairperson Liedtke said she would
like to be a part of. For the members who have not chosen a group yet Chairperson Piccoli will
choose for them.
Police Department Updates
• Captain VanDongen was not present for the meeting. Ms. Reichgelt said BAB members could
email her any questions and they will be answered at the next meeting.
3. Approval of the minutes of the May 12th,2021 meeting
Ms. Liedtke made a motion to approve the minutes from the May 12th,2021 meeting. Mr. Rice seconded
the motion.Upon roll call,the motion passed unanimously.
4. Business Item
A. Utah Inland Port Authority—Jack Hedge, Executive Director
Mr. Hedge from the Utah Inland Port Authority(UIPA)provided a presentation and overview concerning
UIPA,the Inland Port area, its impacts,and the benefits for Salt Lake City and the State of Utah.
Mr. Soud asked how the UIPA is helping small trucking businesses, who may only own one truck that is
not electric.Mr.Hedge responded that they are working with advisory groups,which include small business
trucking companies, to help with that current issue and they are moving in the direction of electric trucks.
Mr. Hedge continued saying it is important that they have the infrastructure that when electric trucks do
become more affordable small businesses can operate these trucks in a more efficient manner and it will
cost less to maintain an electric truck than a diesel truck. Small and independent truck companies will
ultimately benefit from this but as of today they aren't,but it will cascade.
Ms. Gunn asked how does the UIPA see workforce development,particular for trade school who have large
sums of money invested in traditional diesel mechanics. She also asked how does UIPA see that shift
occurring and what types of jobs would potentially emerge. Mr. Hedge replied that the industry is moving
away from diesel to electric/alternative fuels already because of cost benefit. They plan to work with the
community colleges in developing the mechanics programs that are going to be necessary for the next
generation of technology.
Ms. Rice asked if the UIPA sees the warehouse distribution jobs moving into robotics and minimizing the
opportunity for people to support the Inland Port.Mr.Hedge said that they are positioning themselves more
as a technology,innovation,and manufacturing center for the logistic industry so it's more than just a goods
movement center.If the focus of the Inland Port is just on local distribution serving this market,then it will
create a limited amount of jobs and the jobs it does create are the jobs that are most vulnerable to automation.
The objective is not to focus on warehouse distribution, but to take the logistic advantages that they have
and use them to drive manufacturing and innovation here.
Ms. Rice asked for an update on the environmental impact studies. Mr. Hedge responded that they did a
major assessment during UIPA strategic planning last year. One finding showed that it will impact air
admissions by 2%,but population growth has a bigger impact on air quality. A decision has been made to
implement programs to reduce the amount of emissions from truck operations today and position
themselves for a much lower impact in the future.
Due to timing, Ms. Reichgelt ended the conversation and stated that if the BAB members had any further
questions they could reach out to Mr. Hedge through email.
B. EDLF Programmatic Updates—Sofia Fouquet,DED
Ms. Fouquet was hired on by the Economic Development team to review the current Economic
Development Loan Fund(EDLF)program and recommend changes to ensure success and to be in line with
the Mayors priorities. She provided a presentation that was an overview of the current EDLF and outlined
recommended changes to the program.
Ms. Rice congratulated Ms.Fouquet for all her hard work on the EDLF program.Ms.Fouquet thanked the
BAB members that provided feedback on this project and appreciated their input.
Ms. Reichgelt asked for a recommendation from BAB to pass on to the City Council. Ms. Rice made a
motion approving the changes to the program as presented. Ms. Gunn second the motion. Upon roll call
the motion passed with 4 yes and one no.
5. Adjournment
There being no further business,the meeting was adjourned.

RE: Significant Water Consumption Zoning Amendment
REQUESTED ACTION: Planning Division and Public Utilities Department will present zoning
changes and request input from the Business Advisory Board
POLICY ITEM: N/A
BUDGET IMPACTS: N/A
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Mayor Mendenhall, Salt Lake City's Planning Division and Public Utilities Depaitiuent are
proposing an amendment to the City's Zoning Ordinance to regulate land use types that may
involve significant water consumption and prohibit land uses that exceed an average water usage
of 300,000 gallons per day. The current extreme drought situation may have heightened the
urgency to ensure that future land uses do not threaten Salt Lake City's ability to provide water to
all of its residents and businesses,but this is a reality we would have to confront in the near future
anyway as we plan for growth in our desert climate.
The changes to the zoning ordinance include:
1. Prohibit new land uses that would likely consume more than an annual average of 300,000
gallons of water per day;
2. Restrict the expansion of existing land use types that consume more than an annual average
of 300,000 gallons of water per day;
3. Review existing land use regulations for potential revisions to mitigate demands on the
city's water supply;and
4. Amend definitions and land use tables to clarify that"bottling plant"includes the filling of
various container forms with a liquid product generated from culinary water,and is further,
prohibited city-wide. Such amendments shall continue to allow for small scale alcohol
beverage production.
ANALYSIS & ISSUES:
The Planning Division requested the Department of Economic Development's review of the
proposed zoning amendment.After our review,speaking with businesses and property owners, and
analyzing the impact on our business recruitment pipeline we found the following impacts:
1. SLC DED currently has 21 active prospects with water usage over 300k GPD. These
prospects are considering SLC's NWQ as a possible location for their projects.
2. This will heavily impact all the EV/Battery-related projects we've been tracking. Typically
these projects bring in good paying jobs and contribute to the EV/Electric Vehicle industry,
a sector we're sorely lacking in and have been working to attract.
3. Most of these projects are DC/Food processing and manufacturing projects, some we are
not in the running for and some we did not submit due to lack of real estate and water usage
concerns.
4. These changes could impact other types of projects like data centers,breweries, life
Science/tech companies,mega site projects(large scale projects).
5. The NWQ RDA project area(north of I-80 and west of the International Center)is
governed by the 2018 NWQ development agreements and are exempt from this ordinance.

Re: Initiating an amendment to Title 21A,the Zoning Ordinance,to review land use types that
involve significant water consumption
This memo is to request that you initiate a petition for the Planning Division to begin the process of amending the
zoning ordinance to review land use types that may involve significant water consumption and prohibit land uses
that exceed an average water usage of gallons per day.The current extreme drought situation may have heightened
the urgency to ensure that future land uses do not threaten Salt Lake City's ability to provide water to all of its
residents and businesses,but this is a reality we would have to confront in the near future anyway as we plan for
growth in our desert climate.
The Division prepare a land use ordinance to:
1. Prohibit new land uses that would likely consume more than an annual average of 300,00o gallons of water per
day;
2. Restrict the expansion of existing land use types that consume more than an annual average of 300,00o gallons
of water per day;
3. Review existing land use regulations for potential revisions to mitigate demands on the city's water supply;and
4. Amend definitions and land use tables to clarify that"bottling plant”includes the filling of various container
forms with a liquid product generated from culinary water,and is further,prohibited city-wide.Such
amendments shall continue to allow for small scale alcohol beverage production.
The Planning Division may declare application of the"pending ordinance rule",which is established in Utah Code
Section lo-9a-5o9 as a means of prohibiting certain uses for up to 18o days from the time a land use regulation
petition is initiated.The 18o-day period is intended to give the municipality time to get the petition through the
planning commission and city council processes.The adoption process of the resulting ordinance will include review
and recommendation by the Planning Commission prior to a review and decision by the City Council.
If you have any questions,please contact me.

Pending Ordinance - Significant Water Consuming Land Uses
This draft ordinance is intended to serve as public notice of Salt Lake City Corporation's pending
ordinance declaration related to modifications of its zoning ordinance for the purposes specified
therein. This pending ordinance is effective as of July 8, 2021 and remains in effect until
January 4, 2022. This draft ordinance is expected to evolve during the public process and is
intended to serve as a starting point in a policy discussion about land uses that consume
significant quantities of water. To that end, the final proposed ordinance will likely include
additional regulatory provisions concerning the relationship between land use regulation and
water resource protection.The City reserves the right to modify this draft ordinance and any other
provision of its code.
