A. Welcome & Introductions
Ms. Molinari welcomed the CDCIP Board members and City staff then opened the meeting on
March 24, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. She said that each person must state their name before commenting
for the public record and reminded Board members to make sure their microphones were on
while speaking.
The staff offered individual introductions. Mr. Skog then started the introduction of the CDCIP
Board, and each member introduced themselves.
B. Overview of Funding Sources
Ms. Molinari explained that the approach in the past had been for the Board to start with the
most restrictive funding sources first and then work their way back to the most flexible sources.
She described Impact Fees funding as a fee imposed on new development pr(�Iects in Salt Lake
City to ensure existing levels of service would be maintained. Ms. Molinari continued to explain
Class C funding, Funding our Future (FOF) Streets, FOF Other, FOF Transit, Quarter Cent Sales
Tax, and the General Fund.
C. Discussions and Funding Recommendations
Spreadsheet Overview:
Mr. Atkinson provided an overview of'the funding log spreadsheet, highlighting its
resemblance to the one utilised in previous years, noting the eligibility details provided within.
He explained that the sheet was in rank order by the Board member's scores and that he had
created two distinct scenarios as a starting point fi)r discussions: one entailing full funding for
each project based on ranking, prioritising the most restrictive funds first, and the other involving
partial fun(il 12 again according to the hoard's ranking. Mr. Atkinson added that he also built a
sunlnlai-\' tab to show the breakdown by various categories to assist the hoard in its
understnndiilg of final decisions.
The Board had a detailed discussion about funding scenarios, focusing on the adoption of the
provided example (scenario two) which allowed for partial funding of projects. Some members
asked for clarification on how partial funding worked, with examples provided by Mr. Skog and
Mr. Atkinson. Mr. Skog recommended prioritising restricted funding sources and allocating
remaining funds accordingly.
Mr. Murphy praised Mr. Atkinson for his efforts in providing a starting point for project funding.
Ms. Bonk questioned the funding log spreadsheet, which Mr. Atkinson explained was based on
the Board's project rankings.
After thorough discussion, Mr. Christensen moved to approve funding for the projects as listed in
the current version of the attached funding log. Ms. Bonk seconded the motion. Upon roll call,
the motion was unanimously approved.
Mr. Christensen then introduced a contingency motion stating that if the City received additional
funding, the funds should be allocated to projects according to the Board's ranking. Mr. Jones
seconded the motion. Upon roll call, the motion was unanimously approved.
Ms. Steed proposed a contingency motion specifying that if the City received less funding than
anticipated, funds should be deducted from the lowest-ranking program until the budget is
exhausted, ensuring no projects receive partial funding. Ms. Bonk seconded the motion. Upon
roll call, the motion was unanimously approved.
The spreadsheet and statistics summary are attached for reference.
D. Staff Updates
Ms. Molinari informed the Board of a potential restructuring that could divide it into two
separate Advisory Boards—one under the Housing Stability Division focusing oil Community
Development grants and the other under the Finance Department overseeing the Capital
Improvement Program. She noted that the City Council may reach a decision this summer and
