MOTION SHEET
CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY
TO:City Council Members
FROM: Allison Rowland
Budget and Policy Analyst
DATE:June 7, 2022
RE: ORDINANCE: PUBLIC LANDS TWENTY-YEAR MASTER PLAN, REIMAGINE NATURE
MOTION 1 – ADOPT ORDINANCE
I move that the Council adopt the ordinance approving the Salt Lake City Reimagine Nature Master Plan,
subject to a revision in the master plan that any reference to a partnership with a “friends group” or 501(c)(3) to
support or maintain the City’s parks and open space will include a requirement that the friends group is separate
from the City, not managed by City employees, and has a contractual, transparent relationship with the City to
support and maintain the City’s parks/open space that includes City processes for any budgeting, receiving of
funding and contracting for the management or maintenance of these City assets.”
Staff note: The language below is not meant for Council Members to read aloud. It is listed only for reference.
In addition, to the change noted above, the Department of Public Lands will add the following
language to the master plan. This language will appear on page 202 of the draft master plan reviewed
by the Council, as well as any other relevant places, in the Strategy section “G-1: Be proactive and
strategic about growth of the Public Lands System,” as Action 1.3F.
“New Action 1.3 F: Collaborate across City departments and divisions, such as Transportation, to
incorporate thoughtful consideration of islands and medians as beneficial park and open spaces.”
MOTION 2 – NOT ADOPT
I move that the Council not adopt the ordinance adopting the Salt Lake City Reimagine Nature Master
Plan, and proceed to the next agenda item.
