Transmittal - 4/8/2024COUNCIL STAFF REPORT CITY COUNCIL of SALT LAKE CITY TO:City Council Members FROM: Nick Tarbet, Policy Analyst DATE: April 2, 2024 RE:Northpoint Area Annexation Initiation PROJECT TIMELINE: Briefing: April 2, 2024 Set Date: Public Hearing: Potential Action: April 2, 2024 ISSUE AT-A-GLANCE The Council will be briefed on a resolution that would initiate the annexation process for land located in unincorporated portions of Salt Lake County, generally located along 2200 West and within the area identified as the Northpoint community. This resolution would only start the annexation process. The annexation will eventually come back to the Council for final approval, including designating the zoning of properties annexed into the city, after it has gone through the public process. The State annexation process requires a public hearing on the annexation initiation to be held no sooner than 30 days after the resolution is adopted. Staff proposes the Council hold a briefing and adopt the resolution initiating the annexation process on April 2. Then hold a public hearing on May 7. During that time City staff will reach out to stakeholders and property owners about the annexation. The Northpoint Small Area plan (adopted November 2023) included policy direction pertaining to potential annexations that are considered before a new zoning district is approved, that would help implement the polices and goals of the small area plan. Page | 2 That guidance states the following: “…any unincorporated land located within the Transitional area, upon annexation into the city, will be subject to the AG-2 zoning designation until such time as the City Council adopts a new zoning district or overlay that aligns with the envisioned plan. (Page 14, Northpoint Small Area Plan) Next Steps / Timeline A city led annexation would move forward according to the following timeline: 1. Adopt a Resolution initiating the process (proposed for April 2) a. Start noticing for the public hearing 14 days after adoption 2. Hold a Public Hearing (Proposed for May 7) a. No earlier than 30 days after resolution adopted to start the process b. Must provide 3 weeks’ notice 3. The protest period is between the adoption of the Resolution and the Public Hearing. a. Protest will be received by the City Recorder’s Office b. If 50% of the total land value and 50% of the total land area of private property owners submit a protest, then the annexation area must be re-evaluated and cannot continue. 4. Adopt Ordinance annexing properties into the city 5. Within 60 days of adoption file with the Lieutenant Governor’s Office a. Notice of Impending Boundary Action b. Final Local Entity Plat c. Adopted Ordinance The zoning of properties will be designated at the time of annexation, it is not required to go through the typical zoning process. However, if the Council chooses, they have the option to request the Planning Commission make a recommendation on the zoning. This could be done before the Annexation ordinance (step 3) is adopted. Within 60 days of adoption file with the Lieutenant Governor’s Office • Notice of Impending Boundary Action • Final Local Entity Plat • Adopted Ordinance APRIL 2: Adopt Proposed Resolution APRIL 16: Public Hearing Notice (3 weeks before the Public Hearing, 14 days after the Resolution is adopted) APRIL 2 - MAY 7: Protest Period (Received at the City Recorder’s Office) May 7: Hold a Public Hearing Adopt Proposed Ordinance • North Salt Lake consents to annexation • Salt Lake County consents to annexation NEXT STEPS | CITY INTIATED ANNEX 1 2 3 4 5 6 ERIN MENDENHALL DEPARTMENT of COMMUNITY Mayor and NEIGHBORHOODS Blake Thomas Director SALT LAKE CITY CORPORATION 451 SOUTH STATE STREET, ROOM 404 WWW.SLC.GOV P.O.

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.
