Here, just as good. Looks like we're good. Okay. Sorry. It keeps popping up. Gemini wants to tell me all sorts of things we can do with this call. Welcome to.
[0:14]
Okay. We've got this handled to the semi-annual meeting of the JAS advisory council. Thanks for joining us. We have a pre-packed agenda. So we'll get started. We've got name tags and people can see online. So I think we could perhaps dispense with introduction.
[0:31]
options. How do you guys feel about that since perfect? I got thumbs up in the room. We're
[0:36]
going to go with it. So, because we're an open and public meeting, I am going to open
[0:43]
the floor for any public comments. Does anyone in the room have a public comment they'd like
[0:48]
to make?
[0:52]
I see fingers pointing over here. I'll call on you. Is anyone online have a public
[0:58]
comment they would like to make
[1:07]
anyone okay we had had someone who said they
[1:10]
wanted to make a public comment online but I don't know I'm sorry I'm trying
[1:17]
to let everybody in but it doesn't say who needs to be let in all right we won't
[1:23]
worry about it okay so I'll close public comments and we'll move right along so the
[1:29]
first order of business is to adopt the bylaws that were presented and those were
[1:33]
They were put on the meeting invite, they were posted on a public meeting site, and I
[1:37]
appreciate Stan made a few technical edits that I was like super impressed that you caught
[1:42]
those.
[1:42]
You did better than the attorney.
[1:45]
So there were four small technical edits that were made.
[1:49]
We can go through them if you want.
[1:51]
They were like consistency with naming the body, and I think clarifying what a quorum was
[1:58]
correct.
[2:01]
So any discussion on the bylaws? Any thoughts? I'll entertain a motion.
[2:09]
I'll motion to accept the bylaws.
[2:11]
Stan has made the motion. Is there a second? Phoebe has made the second.
[2:16]
I have to say this out loud because when I went back to do the minutes, I didn't last time.
[2:19]
I was like, I don't know who said that. So motion made by Stan, seconded by Phoebe.
[2:25]
All right. All in favor any opposed. Perfect. All right. The next is approving the November 2025 meeting minutes. I didn't hear any comments on those any discussion to that.
[2:46]
So formal. All entertain a motion to approve the November 2025 meeting minutes. All right. Thank
[2:55]
you, Kendall. Look for a second. Buck with a second. Any discussion to the motion? All right.
[3:02]
All those in favor of approving the November 2025 meeting minutes? Say aye. Any opposed? Perfect. Thank
[3:10]
Thank you. All right. This is the next exciting part.
[3:13]
Eric is going to talk. Oh, I guess I should go or this is the agenda.
[3:18]
I think hopefully you can all remote.
[3:20]
We're going to talk about tax exemption types for a project that we've been working on.
[3:24]
We're going to briefly touch on maybe.
[3:27]
Many data standards or table that the next meeting.
[3:30]
And then we'll go through all the subcommittee reports and that will take a bulk of our time
[3:33]
and then we'll have time for an open discussion at the end.
[3:36]
So, Mr. Nieman, I welcome you.
[3:40]
I'll be standing under the HDMI key.
[3:45]
Good morning.
[3:46]
So in one of our subcommittees.
[3:48]
Yeah, the really projector you're gonna have to use it.
[3:51]
In one of our subcommittees for the County and city data standards, we've talked about tax
[3:57]
exemption types and trying to work towards standardization in the assessor databases to help
[4:04]
facilitate a check that was laid out in statute where we are supposed to be putting forward
[4:11]
a publicly owned parcel database for the state. So that's something that we've been working
[4:18]
on. We're working with the Utah Association of Counties to build out that data set. But
[4:23]
in some cases the assessor databases or the counties may not be tracking publicly owned
[4:29]
parcels, tax exempt parcels very closely, because they're not generating revenue for the
[4:35]
county. So sometimes they just kind of get put to the side. There may not be any attributes.
[4:41]
Assigned to them, in some cases, they're not mapped out and maintained in a GIS dataset.
[4:47]
But as part of that, that body we've been working toward this proposal, and I think we
[4:52]
are kind of on the cusp of it at the last advisory council meeting in November.
[4:58]
So what we came up with was trying to categorize into government and nonprofit buckets where the assessor data would be ideally standardized and include these tax exemptions.
