Proposed Resolution - 9/19/2022 RESOLUTION NO. _____ OF 2022
(Authorizing the Donation of Certain City Computers to Benefit Disadvantaged Communities
and Low-Moderate Income Families Through a Digital Donation Program)
WHEREAS, the donation of computers for which Salt Lake City (“City”) has no ongoing
need through the City’s digital donation program advances the educational and digital equity
goals that the City supports; and
WHEREAS, Utah Code Section 10-8-2(1)(a)(v) allows public entities to authorize the
donation of City property to nonprofit entities after a public hearing; and
WHEREAS, though Utah Code Section 10-8-2 does not require a study for such
nonmonetary assistance, in this case the Salt Lake City Department of Finance has performed a
cost analysis related to the costs associated with disposition of City computers that have reached
end-of-life status (“Analysis”); and
WHEREAS, the City Council has, following the giving of not less than fourteen (14) days
public notice, conducted a public hearing relating to the foregoing, in satisfaction of the
requirements of Utah Code Section 10-8-2; and
WHEREAS, the Council has reviewed the proposal provided by the City’s Information
Management Department (“IMS”) to donate up to 133 surplus City computers, including any
corresponding, keyboards, mice, or other peripheral accessories that are used with such
computers; has reviewed the Analysis provided in connection with the IMS proposal, and has
fully considered all comments made during the public hearing;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah, as
follows:
1. The City Council hereby finds and determines that, for all the reasons set forth in

peripheral accessories through the City’s Digital Donation Program is appropriate under these
circumstances. Consequently, the identified computers and peripheral accessories may be donated
to the local nonprofit organizations with the expectation that such computers and peripheral
