13 of 2023 - Local Emergency Declaration Extension – FloodingRESOLUTION NO. ____ OF 2023
Extension of Declaration of Local Emergency: Flood
WHEREAS, under Utah Code 53-2a-208, the chief executive of a municipality may
declare a local emergency, which local emergency may remain in effect for up to 30 days.
WHEREAS, under Utah Code 53-2a-208(6), any extension of the local emergency beyond
the initial 30 days must be with the consent of the governing body of the municipality.
WHEREAS, on April 12, 2023, Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall issued a
Declaration of Local Emergency and Exercise of Emergency Powers No. 1 of 2023 in response to
flooding caused by rapid snowmelt and warm weather (“Proclamation 1 of 2023”).
WHEREAS, based on the continued existence of a large snowpack in the mountains
upstream from Salt Lake City and fluctuating weather temperatures, there is an elevated risk of
flood-caused damage during the spring snowmelt season. As such, the City Council has
determined that extending the duration of the local emergency is in the best interest of the health,
safety, and welfare of Salt Lake City’s residents.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah, the
following:
1. The Council approves the extension of Proclamation 1 of 2023 from the date of this
Resolution until ________, 2023, unless later extended or terminated by subsequent resolution of
the Council or unless terminated pursuant to State law.
2. Prior to the issuance of any proclamation exercising emergency powers under
Proclamation 1 of 2023, the Mayor shall provide written notification to the Council of: (a) the
specific powers the Mayor intends to exercise; (b) the justification for exercising such powers in
connection with the local emergency; and (c) the anticipated effect of the exercise of such powers,
including the anticipated cost or lost revenue to the City.
3. At any Council meeting while the local emergency is still in effect, the Council may
seek additional information from the Mayor, including the actual effect of the exercise of any
emergency powers and the actual costs or lost revenue to the City due to such exercise of powers.
4. This Resolution shall be effective immediately upon passage.
Passed by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah this ___ day of May, 2023.
SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL
