BOX 145486, SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH 84114-5486 TEL 801.535.6230 FAX 801.535.6005 CITY COUNCIL TRANSMITTAL ________________________ Date Received: _________________ Rachel Otto, Chief of Staff Date sent to Council: _________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ TO: Salt Lake City Council DATE: 03/19/2024 Victoria Petro, Chair FROM: Blake Thomas, Director, Department of Community & Neighborhoods __________________________ SUBJECT: Northpoint Area Annexation STAFF CONTACT: Nick Norris, Planning Director at nick.norris@slcgov.com or 801-535-6173 DOCUMENT TYPE: Resolution RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopt the resolution initiating the process to annex lands into the city as indicated in the attached Resolution. BUDGET IMPACT: None, however annexing land into the city increases property tax from the annexed properties, but also increases cost to provide municipal services. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The purpose of this transmittal is to provide the City Council with a resolution to initiate the annexation process for land located in unincorporated portions of Salt Lake County. The land in question is generally located along 2200 West and within the area identified as the Northpoint community. The city has the authority to annex land without a petition from property owners, under Utah Code Section 10-2-418. The Council is only being asked to initiate the process. If the annexation is initiated and ultimately approved as proposed, it would eliminate all islands and peninsulas in the general area. PUBLIC PROCESS: An annexation without a petition authorized under Utah Code requires the City Council to hold a public hearing no earlier than 30 days after adopting the attached resolution, which indicates the council’s intent to annex the area described in Exhibit B. The City rachel otto (Mar 24, 2024 12:42 MDT)03/24/2024 03/24/2024 Council must give three weeks prior notice of the public hearing, which the City Recorder’s Office will assist with. The City council may adopt an ordinance approving the annexation upon conclusion of the public hearing. Utah code section 10-2-418 requires that North Salt Lake provide consent to the annexation because several years ago they amended their annexation policy to include some of the same land that is subject to this annexation proposal. EXHIBITS: 1) Resolution 2) Annexation maps and additional information Exhibit A Resolution RESOLUTION NO. ________ OF 2024 RESOLUTION OF INTENT TO ANNEX CERTAIN UNINCORPORATED PROPERTIES NORTH-NORTHEAST OF THE SALT LAKE CITY INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT AND NEAR THE SALT LAKE COUNTY BORDER WITH DAVIS COUNTY PURSUANT TO UTAH CODE SECTION 10-2-418 WHEREAS, Utah Code Section 10-2-418 allows a municipality to annex unincorporated areas without an annexation petition under certain circumstances; and WHEREAS, some owners of real property north of 2100 North Street and adjacent to 2200 West Street in unincorporated Salt Lake County near the Salt Lake County-Davis County border (the “Properties”) have expressed interest in annexing their land into Salt Lake City’s corporate limits; and WHEREAS, collectively, the Properties are contiguous to the corporate limits of Salt Lake City and are identified within an expansion area described as “Study Area 1 - West Airport” in the city’s annexation policy plan titled, “A MASTER ANNEXATION POLICY DECLARATION for Salt Lake City, Utah” adopted in 1979 and as shown on the map accompanying that plan titled, “SALT LAKE CITY Annexation Policy Declaration Proposed Future Boundaries”; and WHEREAS, a majority of the area consists of residential or commercial development with fewer than 800 residents; and WHEREAS, in addition to the privately-owned land in the proposed annexation area, over 200 acres of the Properties are owned by Salt Lake City Corporation, the majority of which was acquired through federal grants for such land to be used for airport purposes; and WHEREAS, the Properties constitute an unincorporated peninsula, as that term is defined in Utah Code Section 10-2-401; and WHEREAS, Salt Lake County Council approved an annexation near Rose Park Lane with the contingency that Salt Lake City make efforts to annex all of the unincorporated areas to the west and north of the Property; and WHEREAS, most of the area in the proposed annexation has received some Salt Lake City municipal-type services for many years and continue to receive those utility services; and WHEREAS, as part of an effort by private property owners to annex a portion of the Properties into North Salt Lake City in recent years, North Salt Lake City amended its annexation policy plan in 2021 to include some of the proposed annexation areas into that city’s proposed expansion area; and WHEREAS, some owners who sponsored the effort to annex into North Salt Lake City are now supportive of annexing into Salt Lake City’s corporate boundaries; and WHEREAS, Utah Code Subsection 10-2-418(2) requires that unincorporated areas that are within the expansion areas of more than one municipality must receive the consent of all other municipalities whose annexation policy plans include the subject area in their respective expansion areas in order to annex the area; and WHEREAS, in pursuing its intent to annex the Properties, Salt Lake City acknowledges that it must receive the consent of North Salt Lake City before annexation of the Properties can be completed; and WHEREAS, because the Properties are within Salt Lake City’s expansion area in its 1979 annexation policy plan and because the Properties are collectively congruous to Salt Lake City corporate limits, the Salt Lake City Council finds that adopting this resolution of intent to annex the Properties identified in Exhibit A hereto is in the city’s and private property owners’ best interests. NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah: That Salt Lake City intends to pursue annexation of the area shown on the map in Exhibit “A” into Salt Lake City pursuant to Utah Code Section 10-2-418. DATED this ______ day of ________________, 2024. Passed by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah, this _____ day of ________________, 2024.
