REGULAR AGENDA
4. Text Amendment Adopting the Utah Wildland Urban Interface Fire Code (WUI Code) and
associated Wildland Urban Interface Fire Map - Mayor Erin Mendenhall has initiated a text
amendment to adopt the Utah Wildland Urban Interface Fire Code. Utah Code requires the city to
adopt this code before the end of 2025. This proposal adopts the code required by the state of Utah
and adopts a map that shows where the code applies. The code applies special building code
requirements for properties that are identified on the proposed map. The code requirements include
regulations to limit combustible building materials for new buildings and structures and also include
landscaping requirements to create defensible spaces around buildings. The intent of the code is to
reduce the risk wildfires create to life and properties and to mitigate the spread of wildfires to
structures. The provisions of the WUI Code would take precedent over any zoning requirement
related to building materials and landscaping when the zoning code and WUI Code conflict. This
proposal modifies Title 18 Buildings and Construction to adopt the WUI code and relevant section of
Title 21A Zoning to address conflicts between the two codes. Related sections of Title 18 or Title 21A
may be amended as part of this proposal. (Staff Contact: Tony Allred 801-799-4162 or

5. Text Amendment for Disposition of City Owned Rights-of-Way - The Salt Lake City Planning
Commission initiated a text amendment to modify Section 14.52 of the Salt Lake City Code of
Ordinances. Section 14.52 contains the processes and standards that must be adhered to when
requesting that the City gives up ownership of a public right-of-way, including alleys and streets. The
intent is to include all city-owned rights-of-way as well as updating the policy standards that must be
met for the City to vacate or close the right-of-way. Other modifications to 14.52 have also been
made. (Staff Contact: Ben Buckley, 801-535-7142 or benjamin.buckley@slc.gov) Case Number:
