[0:00] OK.
[0:02] All right, we've got a.
[0:05] Relative to the norm, A sizable crowd.
[0:08] Welcome.
[0:11] So we'll call the meeting of the City Council to order.
[0:16] The agenda inadvertently left off the Pledge of Allegiance, but we're still going to do that anyway.
[0:21] So please rise and we'll have a council member, Quinn lead us in the pledge.
[0:28] I pledge allegiance to the flag.
[0:31] The United States of America.
[0:33] And to the Republic for which it stands.
[0:36] One nation under God.
[0:39] Indivisible with liberty and justice for all.
[0:46] OK. Thank you.
[0:48] Next item on the agenda is public comment.
[0:52] Let's see, we have no public hearings and so.
[0:56] Public comment can be essentially anything under the sun.
[0:59] Please keep your comments to 3 minutes or less.
[1:02] Please, you come to the podium when you're ready and please state your name and address for the record and.
[1:07] Let us know what's on your mind. Public comment is now open.
[1:18] Going once.
[1:22] We've got someone who's trying to get encouraged there. I.
[1:26] You know.
[1:29] All right, Mr. Larson.
[1:30] Come on up.
[1:40] There should be a button near the base.
[1:42] A little button near the base.
[1:47] I think it's there you go. Thank you.
[1:52] We are residents.
[1:54] On Spring Lane.
[1:56] Name and address for that to start please.
[1:58] Pardon your name and address please. This time beg your pardon.
[2:01] My name is Craig Larson.
[2:03] I live in 1925 Spring Lane.
[2:06] In Holiday City.
[2:10] We have concerns about traffic on.
[2:13] Or street.
[2:15] We have.
[2:17] Submitted to Youth Information.
[2:19] Of what we know, what we feel.
[2:21] And our concerns.
[2:24] We're here tonight.
[2:27] To add to that.
[2:30] Any additional information you might like that you haven't received?
[2:36] And to answer any questions about the information we've given you.
[2:41] To this point.
[2:44] Thank you.
[2:47] Thank you. Yeah, we generally don't get into back and forth debate during public comment. It's your time to be heard.
[2:53] Pardon.
[2:54] So if you were expecting to have a discussion, that's not normally what happens during public comment.
[2:59] OK.
[3:01] I guess I'll wait.
[3:03] OK.
[3:18] Good evening.
[3:18] My name is Ryan Schreyer. I live on.
[3:21] 1821 Spring Lane.
[3:24] Recently moved in about four years now.
[3:28] I live right next to.
[3:29] On the crosswalk.
[3:31] By Cottonwood Country Drive.
[3:35] And I also have a concern about the speed.
[3:40] On Spring Lane.
[3:42] It's it is pretty scary. I have three children.
[3:47] So we've.
[3:48] We do we have gated our.
[3:50] Property off.
[3:52] So that our kids can't go.
[3:54] Past our property line to.
[3:57] To ride bikes or anything out just because it's the traffic is.
[4:01] Is.
[4:02] It's really bad, but I think.
[4:04] The road, the just.
[4:05] The width of the road.
[4:09] It looks like a 40 mile an hour Rd.
[4:13] So I think people use that road as a.
[4:18] Throughway.
[4:19] To get to Highland from.
[4:21] Vancouver.
[4:23] And so, yeah, I'm a concerned citizen and.
[4:27] I would love to.
[4:30] See something done?
[4:31] In that area to help with the speed.
[4:34] Of the traffic.
[4:35] So I just second what?
[4:37] Craig Larson has said so. Thank you.
[4:40] Thank you.
[4:49] Anyone else for public comment?
[4:56] Yeah.
[5:04] Don't be scared, you did.
[5:09] My husband Abhi live a 1911 Spring Lane next to Craig and Claudia. And your name?
[5:14] Kirsten Healy, hi.
[5:15] Yet we've lived there for 53 years.
[5:18] And the change in Spring Lane.
[5:20] I mean traffic wise and everything you know.
[5:23] It's crazy. We sit on our front porch.
[5:26] Every time we can take a little break.
[5:29] And you know it's off the street.
[5:32] But the traffic coming.
[5:33] Up and down Spring Lane is.
[5:35] I don't think anybody goes 25.
[5:38] You know, and with the young families moving into Spring Lane.
[5:41] Is put it on scary?
[5:43] And another thing I have in mind is.
[5:45] When that wonderful park.
[5:47] Gets going.
[5:49] All the people.
[5:50] North of Spring.
[5:52] And families will want to come across Spring Link.
[5:55] To go over to the park.
[5:56] That is frightening.
[5:59] I guess that's all I can say, you know?
[6:02] We love living where we live.
[6:03] But that traffic is just something that I hope they can do something about it.
[6:09] Thank you Speed bumps.
[6:11] Signs that will flash up and stuff like that.
[6:13] To slow people down, something needs to be done.
[6:16] Thank you.
[6:21] Just related to that Chief Oil, did we recently do a?
[6:25] Or in the midst of a speed study or.
[6:27] Finalize the speech speed study.
[6:30] Yeah, it was done. As of Tuesday, we had a meeting.
[6:40] But yeah, there are some.
[6:43] There are some cars there's.
[6:54] OK, thanks.
[6:57] OK, public comment.
[7:01] Anyone else?
[7:02] Going once.
[7:04] Going twice? OK, we'll close public comment.
[7:06] But please come back anytime.
[7:09] OK.
[7:11] Cheap oil.
[7:20] Thank you Mayor Council, truly honored to be able to be here tonight to recognize a couple of your members here for some
[7:23] outstanding.
[7:27] Efforts that have been done in your community here. If I could, I'd.
[7:30] Like to ask Chief Mazarin and Lieutenant Ackerman to join me up here as we present these three incentive awards to some of your
[7:34] officers.
[7:39] First off, if I could, if I could ask Officer Jason Hudgins to come up here.
[7:43] And as he's coming up, I think it's very important to acknowledge that.
[7:47] Cordell Whitmore, who's been your bailiff in the court, is retiring at the end of the month. And Jason is now your new court
[7:50] bailiff that's going to be here.
[7:54] In the building with you every day. Some of you have probably met him already.
[7:58] Anyway, so Jason, what I would like to recognize him and it's.
[8:02] This one was a little bit ago, was back in January, but Officer Hudgens took a welfare check.
[8:08] Report for an elderly female who is living alone and possibly suffering from mental health and malnutrition because their neighbor
[8:12] provided information with clear distress concerns and Officer Hudgens contacted the elderly female in question and learned medical
[8:17] help was needed and called for her.
[8:21] Officer Hudgens learned this female lived alone and had little to no contact with immediate family members and unfortunately.
[8:27] There were obviously signs and evidence that this female could not adequately care for herself mentally or physically.
[8:33] The neighbors concern and complaint were confirmed in the matter was serious.
[8:37] The female was underweight, drinking only protein shakes. There was no solid foods inside her home.
[8:42] She was under the illusion of a medical study where doctors.
[8:45] We're taking steps to help her with sleep and medical treatment, but nothing was being done.
[8:51] Officer Hudgens utilized various resources such as the mental Health unit.
[8:55] Unified Fire Adult Protective Services to aid this female and additional follow up from the mental health unit detective.
[9:01] The female was then transported to the hospital for proper medical and psychiatric treatment and evaluation, and her family and
[9:05] members were contacted.
[9:10] The the letter that we had received, the person said. I'm grateful for the work that was done by Officer Hudgens and how he used
[9:13] the resources needed.
[9:16] Help a vulnerable.
[9:18] Risk elderly female I am.
[9:20] Very honored to recognize him for his outstanding efforts to get this.
[9:25] Very important member of our community some some help that was very, very needed for her own safety. So with that Jason, we want
[9:30] to give you your certificate of commendation and then I've also.
[9:36] Included in here a letter that I had received from the neighbor and for the work that you did.
[9:40] Congratulations.
[9:49] What we'll do for you other guys as well, we'll get a big picture.
[9:56] OK so this next award, if I could have detectives A potion story.
[10:02] And Anna Walker, please come up here.
[10:04] I'm also part of this award where Sergeant Ed 2 Hill and Detective Mitch Valencia, but they were both out of town. I guess they
[10:09] decided to hit the Memorial Day weekend a little bit early here.
[10:15] This one is a great story that we'll talk a little bit more after we read this this narrative.
[10:21] But on March 8, 2026, Detective A Potion initiated an investigation into a burglary involving.
[10:26] Approximately 80,000 to $100,000 in stolen property.
[10:30] That included high value watches and jewelry.
[10:32] Through diligent detective efforts, it was determined the suspects were operating out of Las Vegas.
[10:37] They began coordinating with Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department revealed that there was an active parallel investigation
[10:41] involving the same suspects in Las Vegas.
[10:46] Acting on information that they had developed, these great detectives and Las Vegas Metro Police Department executed a search
[10:52] warrant on March 27th in Las Vegas, resulting in the recovery of a portion of the stolen property.
[10:59] On March 30th.
[11:01] 2026 While off duty detective, a potion was contacted by the victims.
[11:04] Who reported that the suspects had just left their residence and.
[11:08] And returned the additional stolen items.
[11:11] Which doesn't ever happen.
[11:13] Without hesitation, detectives a potion. With the assistance of Detective Story Detective Walker Sergeant 2 Hill, they quickly
[11:18] developed a real time intelligence and coordinated with Utah Highway Patrol and other local agencies tracking the suspects who
[11:23] were traveling southbound on I-15.
[11:28] Back to Las Vegas.
[11:30] They ended up locating in their Mills, Utah. The suspects were apprehended and transported back to the Holiday precinct for
[11:33] interviews.
[11:36] During the subsequent interviews, detectives, A potion story and with the assistance of Detective Valencia, who provided
[11:41] translating services, obtained full confessions from the suspects.
[11:45] This case exemplifies it.
[11:47] The exceptional police work that these great detectives do every single day.
[11:52] They demonstrate the initiative, ability and tenacity to go beyond what's expected.
[11:57] The professionalism, dedication and teamwork displayed reflect great credit to those involved.
[12:02] In this investigation and this the Unified Police Department, I will just tell you.
[12:06] This not only closed this one case, but there was another one for sure that closed here in holiday.
[12:10] That they did. Because of this, we often joke.
[12:13] But don't commit crime at holiday because these guys are gonna catch you.
[12:18] And so with that, I want to present you guys with you or incentive award, congratulations.
[12:37] OK. And last but definitely not least, if we could have Kennedy White come up here.
[12:46] Council Member Bradley, you will recognize this story that I'm about to share with you.
[12:52] This, and I think it's important to note that this incentive award was.
[12:56] Began as an e-mail that I received from Councilmember Bradley, and then I began to do my own digging into what Officer White had
[13:00] done on a particular call, which we'll read about here, and found.
[13:05] That she had done an amazing job. So here we go.
[13:07] On April 19, 2026, Officer.
[13:10] Kennedy White responded on a suspicious call at about 3:00 AM.
[13:13] The information was that an unknown male was knocking on the complainant's door at that early morning hour and they did not know
[13:17] who it was. When Officer White and other officers arrived, they located a male and found that he was suffering from a mental
[13:21] health crisis.
[13:25] Where he was seeing and speaking to people who were not there.
[13:28] Officer White had to do some investigating to determine who the male was as he did not want to provide his name.
[13:33] After figuring out who the male was.
[13:35] It was found that he was not from the neighborhood.
[13:37] And it was unknown why he had picked this particular house to knock on that door.
[13:41] While at the house, he even knocked over some pots and planters that were on the porch. Realizing that the individual was having a
[13:46] mental health crisis, Officer White got him to a local hospital where he could receive medical care.
[13:52] In an e-mail that was received from this incident.
[13:55] By Councilmember Bradley.
[13:57] She said responding officers handled the situation with professionalism and care.
[14:01] What sets?
[14:02] This whole situation apart and it's just.
[14:05] I'm so proud of our officers in this precinct because every single day they go above and beyond. And this is just one prime
[14:09] example of what she did. But so Officer White went back to the home.
[14:13] After she got the the individual treatment at the hospital, went back to the victim's home and cleaned up the mess that was left
[14:17] on the front porch by the individual who was in crisis.
[14:22] It was said that he, this homeowner, was especially appreciative.
[14:26] That one of them returned about 4:00 AM to clean up the mess that was left on the porch, something that.
[14:29] Hadn't been requested, but was a gesture that meant a great deal.
[14:32] Officer White continually goes above and beyond to serve the community and the citizens of Holiday. She's always positive, but we
[14:37] regularly get the same types of comments about our interactions with the community. She's truly deserving of this recognition and
[14:42] I have to say we've talked about it before here, but.
[14:47] You guys know that we get, we have this spider text that goes out whenever somebody calls 911. Now they get a survey after our
[14:51] officers have been there.
[14:55] I regularly get probably the most of anybody of.
[14:58] Positive comments, they acknowledge her by name of the great work that she's doing and we're just truly honored to have her here
[15:03] and the great work that she does every single day. So with that, congratulations.
[15:13] Can we?
[15:14] Do you guys mind if we snap a quick picture you want to?
[15:17] Can you guys come down and join us? Would that be OK?
[15:31] I don't want to.
[15:32] No, I'm a Shorty.
[15:34] We need to go by height, right?
[15:43] You want me to do?
[15:48] I could squat down.
[15:51] It's like the soccer team.
[17:06] All right. Thank you, Chief, and your officers and detectives. Thanks very much. That was great.
[17:11] OK, moving on.
[17:13] To item number 4.
[17:15] Consideration of ordinance.
[17:18] Vacating certain portions of right of way up 2755 E Hillsdon Dr.
[17:22] We've been through the process of.
[17:25] Public hearing.
[17:27] Did we need to have any?
[17:28] Refresher from staff.
[17:30] Any questions from the Council?
[17:33] I just recall this is the.
[17:35] A piece that's been kind of.
[17:37] Being used by.
[17:38] For years and years and years and so.
[17:41] Vacating that property.
[17:42] There's no public safety issue as I recall.
[17:45] So I'm happy to.
[17:46] Take a motion unless there are any questions.
[17:49] Motion to approve ordinance.
[17:50] 2604 Vacating a certain portion of the right of way at 2755 E Hillston Dr.
[17:57] 2nd.
[17:58] OK, we have a motion and a second council member, Gray.

[18:07] And share votes yes, thank you that.
[18:09] Out of way is vacated.
[18:13] OK, same thing, except a different address. Another vacation.
[18:18] As it were for a right of way at 1720 E Bunker Hill Rd.
[18:24] Are there any questions or concerns about this one?
[18:28] There was, I remember an outstanding issue before about how normally these are split.
[18:35] But that would be between those.
[18:37] The applicants of the city's role is just to vacate.
[18:40] The parcel.
[18:43] And then it's between the two.
[18:45] Residents on either side to.
[18:47] Battle it out. The default is splitting down the middle, but then they can work it out among themselves. So it's.
[18:51] Not the city's purview to.
[18:54] Regulate that element of it.
[18:56] That said, if there are any other questions.
[18:59] I'm happy to take a motion.
[19:01] I move the adoption.
[19:03] Ordinance 2026.

[19:39] And.
[19:41] Prior to thinking emotional.
[19:43] Open the floor to Councilmember Quinn if you.
[19:45] Would like.

[20:35] OK, item number 7.
[20:37] Moving on.
[20:40] This is a resolution approving interlocal agreement.
[20:44] With Salt Lake County.
[20:46] For TRCC funds, this is.
[20:49] A grant associated with.
[20:52] Our auditorium.
[20:54] At our.
[20:56] Normal City Hall out in holiday.
[20:59] As I recall, the amount is in.
[21:01] $700,000 range.
[21:04] OK. Any questions?
[21:06] Or concerns about.
[21:08] This particular resolution.
[21:09] Was there any match funds that we needed with this?
[21:14] OK.
[21:16] And that is, I believe we're already.
[21:19] Planning that as part of our overall.

[21:53] Thank you.
[21:56] OK, moving on to item number 8. Now this is.
[22:00] We haven't had a whole lot of discussion about this one, so perhaps.
[22:05] Is it Gina or Holly you want to?
[22:08] Take a moment just to give us a.
[22:11] It's a minor item, but we should at least have a little bit.
[22:14] Sure. So, as the Council is probably aware, this summer is the 250th anniversary.
[22:23] Our country similar to the celebration of the bicentennial 50 years ago.
[22:30] We there has been encouragement at both the federal and state level to celebrate this anniversary.
[22:38] And what we are proposing to do is.
[22:43] Use the logo of America's 250 on our already planned events this summer.
[22:51] To amplify that celebration.
[22:54] In order to do that, to access the logo, we need the Council to indicate their support for this program.
[23:02] And then to create a committee.
[23:06] Of both the mayor and staff that would.
[23:12] Help amplify that celebration.
[23:19] Gina, I've had.

[23:33] You are.
[23:34] Particularly interested in that you want to engage the Council in as far as adding to the budget.
[23:43] Probably next week would be the appropriate time to do.
[23:46] Yeah. OK. Thank you.

[25:52] Wreck Bond. This generally happens every 10 years.
[25:55] And the other is a application for the.
[25:59] TRCC the track.
[26:01] Funding similar to the funding we just you just approved.
[26:07] We are hoping.
[26:08] To seeking your permission to apply for $2,000,000 from the rec bond.
[26:15] And $1,000,000 from track.
[26:19] For the.
[26:20] For spring.
[26:23] Different elements.
[26:24] In each.
[26:25] Application. Umm.
[26:28] So both.
[26:29] Both grant sources.
[26:31] Would be directed toward the spring lane.
[26:33] Yes, but.
[26:35] What do we feel like our chances are with these? Like how do you? How strong do you feel like our application is?
[26:39] So I'm going to defer to Holly and.
[26:42] Her answer that question?
[26:45] And I do support it by the way, I'm just.
[26:47] Excited about this opportunity.
[26:49] So the red bond is a $90,000,000 bond, but the county has indicated they're going to be using about 1/3 of that for deferred
[26:53] maintenance.
[26:57] And then another third to build out their facility. So that leaves.
[27:00] 27,000,000 for 22 municipalities.
[27:03] So we feel like $2,000,000 is a pretty.
[27:06] Fare request.
[27:08] In terms of TRCC typically awards.
[27:11] We've gotten up to like 708 hundred thousand, so we're asking for a million we feel like.
[27:16] This park in particular is a pretty unique opportunity for our city because it's.
[27:20] 12 acres in built out holiday, so we are asking for a million there.
[27:25] So both are pretty competitive. That's great. And when, when will we hear?
[27:29] So the Zaprick Bond and the TRC are moving on a similar schedule, so usually they have.
[27:35] Presentations in the summer, so we'll go before their boards.
[27:38] Provide information on our project.
[27:40] And then late summer they usually come out with their recommendations and that goes through the.
[27:45] County's budget process that's tied to the calendar year.
[27:48] OK, so we'll have.
[27:49] For sure by December.
[27:50] OK.
[27:52] Then today at the Council of Governments, we just.
[27:54] Approved the.
[27:55] For members of the board.
[27:59] That will.
[28:00] Receive those requests and evaluate those requests or.
[28:04] Other mayors.
[28:06] It's council. It's a Mayor Jackson.
[28:08] Mary Gettel.
[28:09] Who I nominated.
[28:11] Mayor Tishbroker.
[28:13] And Mayor Palmer.
[28:15] And two of those 4 lobbied me for those votes, so yeah.
[28:22] We'll see how that.
[28:23] And we are.
[28:25] I think also uniquely shovel ready because we have the bond, we have done all of this planning work. We're like ready to go.
[28:32] And the track track specific grant the.
[28:35] The county representative.
[28:39] Yeah.
[28:40] She was specifically indicating that money is.
[28:43] Is.
[28:44] For those shovel ready, sort of.
[28:45] Projects and so for us to.
[28:48] Be in that state is advantageous.
[28:50] Yeah, that's great.
[28:51] That would be so fantastic.
[28:53] So from the nodding heads, it looks like their support from the council for those applications. Oh yes.
[28:59] OK, I wanted to update the Council on our earmark.
[29:05] The status of art year mark.
[29:08] Yesterday, Holly and I met with representatives from FEMA.
[29:14] From the state Division of Emergency Management and staff from Senator Curtis's office.
[29:20] I don't have new information to provide you, but the meeting was encouraging in that.
[29:27] There is a commitment from those parties.
[29:30] To work through the issue and see if there's any way that funding.
[29:37] Can be applied.
[29:40] Even that we have started.
[29:42] Demolition work on our seismic.
[29:45] Retrofit, so stay tuned.
[29:49] Hopefully we'll be.
[29:50] Fear of something in the next couple of weeks. What's the next?
[29:54] Just you're just waiting to hear from them. We are waiting to hear from them.
[29:58] Yeah.
[30:00] The third thing I wanted to.
[30:02] Council about is that today was the last day of our current emergency manager, Alison Jester. We were very sad to.
[30:13] Say goodbye to her.
[30:16] The good news of this story, however, is that we.
[30:19] Do have a new emergency manager hired? Who will?
[30:23] Work in the next two weeks.
[30:26] And that is Randy Thomas.
[30:28] Who until a?
[30:31] Year or so ago was the precinct chief.
[30:33] In Midvale, so he is within UPD he is very familiar with.
[30:39] Operations Valleywide and I think.
[30:42] Will be able to hit the ground running in this position.
[30:46] So look to meet him in the next.
[30:49] Couple of weeks.
[30:50] Great night again. He's a.
[30:52] Chief, this is a part-time position, so to get someone of his qualifications in a.
[30:57] Post semi retirement mode is.
[31:00] A win.
[31:01] That's what we think as well, yeah.
[31:05] OK. Any other questions for me?
[31:08] All right. Thank you.
[31:09] OK, let's move to council reports. Let's start with.
[31:12] Councilmember Gray.
[31:15] Two things I had the opportunity to give.
[31:19] The holiday scholarships to the deserving students at Cottonwood High School.
[31:24] And this week, as I was.
[31:25] At different meetings and talking with different cities, I realized that.
[31:29] Not.
[31:30] Every city does this. I mean, I know that a lot of our neighbors do, but I was surprised at how many cities don't do this. And so
[31:35] I just want to, I don't know the history of how we got involved in this, but I'm really grateful that.
[31:39] Holiday offers these scholarships to.
[31:42] Its students that attend its local high schools. I know that they are.
[31:45] Greatly appreciated.
[31:47] So I appreciate.
[31:48] Everyone in the city's efforts on that.
[31:50] The second thing that I want to thank.
[31:52] Is Captain Brown.
[31:55] And his team is always, you know.
[31:58] District 5 has stuff going on.
[32:01] But in the last.
[32:03] The latest windstorm my neighborhood lost power for hours and there were lots of.
[32:07] Smoking branches that had.
[32:10] That were down in the neighborhood and so we had.
[32:13] Fire engines down in the neighborhood making sure that that didn't turn into anything more serious. So we really appreciate your
[32:16] help and.
[32:21] On all of the neighborhood text threat, everyone was watching all everything that you guys were doing and.
[32:27] And we really appreciate all of it. So thank you very much. That's all I have to report.
[32:30] Council member Quinn.
[32:32] Tis the season for awards I also.
[32:35] Was honored to go out to Churchill Junior High School.
[32:39] And give out.
[32:40] Two awards to deserving students up there.
[32:44] And I think they are greatly appreciated.
[32:48] Also last night we had a great presentation by.
[32:52] Author BIM Oliver.
[32:54] Who was speaking at?
[32:58] The.
[33:00] That new facility over by Trader Joe's, If everybody knows, everybody knows where Trader Joe's is, right?
[33:06] Anyway, he he spoke about.
[33:08] Post World War 2 architecture.
[33:10] Here in holiday and we had a great evening and.
[33:13] We appreciate.
[33:15] His time and effort and also the.
[33:17] The time and effort of all the.
[33:19] The people on the Historical Commission.
[33:22] We have great volunteers here on holiday.
[33:24] Well attended event.
[33:25] Yeah, Councilmember Bradley.
[33:28] Well, I also got to attend an award ceremony this week at Bonneville Junior High.
[33:34] Always great to be out there and recognize.
[33:36] The students that maybe don't get the recognition.
[33:40] At some of their peers get so.
[33:43] Really do appreciate our award and.
[33:45] What it looks for?
[33:47] As we.
[33:48] Find people that are deserving.
[33:50] Also.
[33:52] To Chief.
[33:53] Oiled for coming with me and meeting with.
[33:56] Our Spring Lane residents.
[33:59] Talk about the problems that.
[34:02] Are happening on their St. and hopefully we can work to find some solutions on those.
[34:08] OK, Councilmember Durham.
[34:10] If you're not bored of hearing about awards, I was able to give the awards for Skyline High School and Olympus High School.
[34:17] And he?
[34:19] Were able to meet with a couple of the recipients in person.
[34:21] They were very excited, very appreciative.
[34:25] Very impressive young people, it was great.
[34:27] And I echo what everyone else has said.
[34:30] I'm really grateful that the city is able to participate in that program and give those awards.
[34:36] And then a week or two ago, I met with a happy, healthy holiday coalition.
[34:40] And they've been.
[34:43] Doing some.
[34:44] Deep dives into some data that's have been.
[34:46] Made available to them from Salt Lake County.
[34:48] And they've identified some risk factors in our community and some.
[34:52] Protective factors in our community and are starting to develop a plan.
[34:56] Primarily focused on.
[34:57] Middle school and high school age.
[35:00] Youth that.
[35:02] Make use of this data and help them.
[35:05] With some of the.
[35:07] Things that could develop into some problems in our community, but it's a very engaged, very informed.
[35:14] Group and they're doing a great job.
[35:18] Councilmember.
[35:19] To complete the streak, I was honored.
[35:22] To attend Olympus Junior High Awards last night and present.
[35:27] Awards to two well deserving students. And I'll just add that they really appreciated the Milkshake Factory gift card and I was
[35:31] really bummed to miss last night the the yeah, the architecture discussion. I'm a big fan of mid century architecture, so it's too
[35:36] bad.
[35:42] I'm glad. I'm glad it went well.
[35:47] Also speaking.
[35:48] Awards. But this has nothing to do with any schools.
[35:52] But rather.
[35:53] Several members of the staff.
[35:55] And some members of the council.
[35:57] Went to an awards event downtown in the Zions Founders room.
[36:01] Put on by the American Society of Public Administrators.
[36:05] Where I was.
[36:07] I asked to.
[36:09] Well, I took it upon myself to brag about holiday.
[36:12] In particular, but then also to.
[36:15] Brag a fair bit about the best city manager in all the land, Our own Gina Chambers, who is awarded A Distinguished Service Award.
[36:23] For her service.
[36:24] Public service throughout her career.
[36:27] The pinnacle of which, of course, is being city manager of Holiday.
[36:30] So congratulations to Gina on what a.
[36:33] Fun event I was yesterday at noon.
[36:35] And well deserved.
[36:37] Also, since our last council meeting, a couple of cool events that I was able to attend.
[36:42] Last Friday night at our new Steinway dealership.
[36:46] There was a.
[36:48] Concert event held.
[36:50] Where Simon Mulligan was his name. He's from Perth Amboy, NJ and he was a.
[36:57] Master pianist and consultant with the Steinway company. He came on and put on a 90 minute concert that.
[37:02] Blew the doors off.
[37:04] And that's the sort of great new business we have in Holiday that can bring an event like that.
[37:09] And he Isaac Jackson, the owner, also indicated there'll be another event coming up in September where.
[37:15] Apparently it's going to blow the doors off even.
[37:17] More sales.
[37:18] But this is a great.
[37:21] Cultural event that this new dealership and holiday will bring, so I'm looking forward to.
[37:26] More events there.
[37:28] Also on Friday we have.
[37:32] Who knew that?
[37:33] Despite the fact that holiday, as far as I know.
[37:37] Is not really a.
[37:39] Destination city for.
[37:41] Fishing.
[37:43] We, I mean, I've seen occasional people with fishing poles along Big Tottenwood Creek, but I still wouldn't say that.
[37:49] Holiday is a.
[37:51] Fishing destination.
[37:53] Nonetheless.
[37:54] Fishtack on 6200 S is the number one.
[38:00] A fish and tackle store in all of.
[38:02] According to the major suppliers of.
[38:04] And wholesalers of fishing equipment. So there was a 30 year anniversary of their business location. They brought back the
[38:09] original founders and had a big party. And boy, they got some loyal customers because they were like.
[38:15] Hugging and crying and.
[38:18] Over fishing tackle. So I was honored and delighted.
[38:22] To be there.
[38:24] Also this week or with since the last council meeting.
[38:29] We've passed our tentative budgets.
[38:31] For both UFA and UPD.
[38:34] And we've talked about this previously, but just once again our.
[38:37] For UFA for instance.
[38:40] The overall budget increase for the entire organization.
[38:43] Was 5.34% and the.
[38:46] The bulk of that higher end was because of some additional.
[38:49] Additional station opened up in Kearns, but.
[38:52] Holidays increase from UFA.
[38:55] 2.11%.
[38:57] Outstanding, uh.
[38:58] UPD Also.
[39:00] Overall increase.
[39:04] Depending on how you interpret certain data.
[39:07] 3.08% overall with holidays.
[39:10] Percent being 2 point.
[39:12] 31.
[39:14] Outstanding.
[39:15] Our public safety partners have really been doing a great job managing their budgets.
[39:20] And.
[39:22] Finding efficiencies.
[39:24] And.
[39:25] UPD In particular.
[39:27] Brought on the.
[39:29] Intermountain Health is a new partner to have spread some great economy of scale.
[39:33] Benefits. Uh.
[39:34] Our shared services.
[39:37] So I've been delighted to.
[39:38] Sort of on those boards.
[39:40] And to report.
[39:42] Those great results for our coming budget year.
[39:45] OK, that's all I have unless there's any other questions or issues.
[39:49] If not, we'll.
[39:50] Asked for a motion to recess to a work meeting.
[39:54] So moved.
[39:55] Second, all in favor?
[39:58] Aye, we are City Council is recessed.
[40:01] And we'll proceed to a work meeting, are we?
[40:04] Doing anything venue wise or just staying where we are or does anyone need to?
[40:08] Catherine Bake, are we good to go?
[40:11] OK, welcome to stay, of course, but you don't need to, sorry.
[40:17] Thanks for coming.
[40:19] Come back anytime.
[40:31] OK.
[40:34] I'm going to be up here for a minute.
[40:38] You're wrong.
[40:42] All right.
[40:43] Good evening, Mayor and Council.
[40:46] If you want to go to the next slide, Stephanie.
[40:51] So tonight we're going to be covering a few departments within the general fund.
[40:55] Specifically public services and under the umbrella public services, we have parks, streets and engineering.
[41:01] And then we're going to talk about the Historical Commission.
[41:04] That's it for the general fund, then we're going to cover the arts fund, then we're going to cover capital projects and.
[41:09] Under that umbrella we have the grants fund and then finally we are going to end with the stormwater fund.
[41:16] So future meetings, June 4th, we're going to do UPD.
[41:19] LBA non departmental, the tree committee and then any other result unresolved issues.
[41:24] And then June 11th, we're just going to talk about new growth and then any, any.
[41:28] Final budget balancing changes.
[41:33] OK, Public Services, we just have a nice little graphic here to show you the department.
[41:37] Jared Bunch is our public services director. Joe Bolton is our assistant city engineer.
[41:42] Thomas Norbit is our parks.
[41:43] Maintenance Supervisor.
[41:45] And then we have.
[41:47] 3.
[41:48] We have a contracted services specifically with forge grain for engineering.
[41:53] And then under Thomas, we have Rob Long.
[41:56] Nathan Cepsey and Jackson Chelis.
[42:01] OK, so this is just a nice little graphic to break down how these expenses within public services break out.
[42:08] That orange section in the top graphic?
[42:10] Is the engineering department that includes.
[42:14] Jared Bunch, Joe Bolton.
[42:16] It also includes some new items, which I'll talk about on the next slide.
[42:20] Sort of to explain why it's increased from fiscal year 26 to 27. You'll notice that orange bar is a little bit larger.
[42:27] Green is our.
[42:29] Parks Department and then blue is the largest item which is our our classy Rd. funds.
[42:35] We can go next.
[42:39] OK, so this top graphic.
[42:42] Is coming directly from our tentative budget.
[42:47] Oh no, that's OK.
[42:51] That's all right.
[42:54] OK. And.
[42:55] For the purposes of presenting in the tentative budget, I.
[42:58] Created a line that was miscellaneous changes less than 15,000 but.
[43:01] Just to keep it concise in the actual table of the tentative budget, but for the purposes of this presentation, I broke out a
[43:05] lower section just to break out some of those.
[43:09] Larger changes in the most miscellaneous section.
[43:12] But first of all, we have salaries and wages which increased by 25,000.
[43:17] Janitorial increased by 15,000. I previously mentioned this in a work session that I had changed.
[43:24] How some of those costs were being allocated based off of?
[43:27] Square footage and personnel rather than.
[43:30] Larger portions just being allocated.
[43:33] Based off of.
[43:35] Just staff and.
[43:37] We'd basically just change the allocation to make it a little bit.
[43:39] What I feel to be more accurate?
[43:42] Next we have.
[43:44] The holiday water hydrant. So this was an item which was previously budgeted within capital projects. It is a fire hydrant
[43:48] maintenance within the city.
[43:53] In the past it had been included as a capital project item when it's really more of a maintenance type item. So we moved it out of
[43:58] capital projects because it isn't really one and moved it into the general fund.
[44:03] As it's more of an ongoing maintenance type item.
[44:07] Is that an individual hydrant we have to fix every year? Are we talking about hydrants generally?
[44:13] You'll, you'll notice that there's also another line that is the fire hydrant maintenance. So there's, there's two separate line
[44:19] items and the differentiator there is one is associated with holiday water and one is associated with.
[44:25] The I believe it's Salt Lake City Public Utilities that does the maintenance for those fire hydrants. So it's split between those
[44:29] two providers that provide the service.
[44:35] Does Jordan Valley have any?
[44:38] Do not bill us.
[44:39] For that service, I think they have a small service. I love those guys man.
[44:46] The next item is the concrete trip hazard cutting, so you'll notice that's increasing by $17,000.
[44:52] And this is sort of coming on the heels of.
[44:54] Discussions we've been having with our insurance provider.
[44:58] There's been some claims in the past of trip and fall conditions where people are walking on the sidewalk. They'll trip and then.
[45:04] That gets addressed.
[45:06] So we are taking steps to.
[45:08] Go about inventorying a lot of the sidewalks within holiday to try to find those problem areas you'll notice within the capital
[45:12] projects.
[45:17] Fund, when we get to that point, we also have $100,000 of budget that is specifically for the repair.
[45:23] So this is this budget is being set aside for the surveying of it and then we have a budget that is for.
[45:28] The eventual repair of it.
[45:32] Next, computer software I previously mentioned. We are now allocating those based off of.
[45:37] The personnel who are using those softwares. So that's why it's starting to appear.
[45:41] Within the public services department rather than just being all within.
[45:44] Administration.
[45:47] Next, the county public works contract, which is the biggest increase of 311,000. The next slide we're going to go into a lot more
[45:51] detail on what the increases there are.
[45:56] But that is by far the largest increase.
[45:59] And then contained within that miscellaneous changes of 40,000.
[46:03] There's a bunch of individual ones that are 15,000 or less and I took out some of those largest ones and put it in that.
[46:08] Information section just below.
[46:12] Specifically the first one, 4707 S Holiday Blvd. This is a Plaza.
[46:18] That's on Holiday Blvd. which previously we were maintaining with a contracted service, which has since been.
[46:24] Brought in an our perks crew is now maintaining that section so we no longer need the contracted service. That's why the the
[46:28] budget is going down.
[46:32] City Hall maintenance and supply This is an item.
[46:34] Which changes from year to year and generally what I've done in the past is just look at trends and.
[46:40] It's trended down slightly, so I'm reducing that budget a little bit.
[46:44] Vehicle maintenance.
[46:45] This is more based off of just year to year.
[46:47] When I have conversations with Jared, what we're anticipating the vehicles are going to need and this year we think we're going to
[46:50] need a little less.
[46:54] Contracted Engineering Services. This is an increase of $15,000 in.
[46:59] Jared can maybe speak to this more.
[47:01] Directly if you're interested in details, but my understanding is it's for right of way.
[47:06] Permitting and.
[47:07] That sort of thing.
[47:09] Parks, Water. So with the addition of Spring Lane, we're not necessarily sure at this point.
[47:14] What the impact is going to be on the needs for the water and the actual park?
[47:18] But at this time, we're increasing it by 12,500.
[47:21] We had done an increase in fiscal year 26 for it as well.
[47:25] But so far we haven't really started receiving bills for that so.
[47:29] In anticipation of that, we're increasing it a little bit just so we have the room.
[47:33] When that eventually comes online.
[47:35] To pick it up.
[47:36] And then finally City Hall utilities and that is another item that is associated with just that change in allocation. So you'd
[47:40] notice.
[47:44] Some departments went down, some went up.
[47:46] But as a whole they they did increase and I could get that information if the Council is curious.
[47:51] Before we leave that slide on the.
[47:53] Are we going to get into so we have the feasibility study for the public's works is that and are we going to talk about that when
[47:56] we talk about the.
[48:00] We can talk about that now.
[48:01] Public works.
[48:02] Increasing so much.
[48:04] Yes. So the public works feasibility study in previous the.
[48:07] Fiscal year 2026 budget. Sorry I skipped over that one, I didn't mean to do that.
[48:12] In 2026, we didn't have any budget, so this increases from zero to 50,000 and it's specifically associated with Mill Creek has
[48:18] taken steps to consider bringing public services, not public services. Some of their public works function in house, specifically
[48:24] snow plowing and road maintenance.
[48:30] And there's been some concern if Mill Creek were to pull out of that contract, what happens to us as being part of that contract?
[48:38] So this $50,000 is being set aside for us to do a feasibility study to see.
[48:43] What would it mean if we were to bring that service?
[48:45] In.
[48:46] Did that answer your question?
[48:48] Yeah, great. Any other questions on this slide?
[48:51] For me or Jared, I know he's getting excited. He wants to come up.
[48:58] OK, we can go next then.
[49:06] OK. So this is the breakdown of the increase to the Salt Lake County Public Works contract?
[49:11] If you have specific questions on any of these items, I might need to defer to Jared, but.
[49:17] Overall, the picture is that we're seeing an increase in personnel related costs. The concrete colors which I've previously
[49:22] mentioned are the colors that go around the manholes.
[49:27] The snowplow costs are increasing by 22% or $87,000. The overlay materials, which is.
[49:34] The paving materials increasing as well.
[49:37] Patching materials increasing.
[49:40] The dumping costs are increasing and then we actually have.
[49:43] A reduction in the mastic materials which are decreasing by 24,000.
[49:48] And then they had other changes that were 10,000 or less of.
[49:51] Of 15,000.
[49:52] For a total increase of 311.
[49:55] Mastic Materials.
[49:57] I'm pretending like I know what that.
[49:59] Is.
[50:00] Giving you an opportunity to inform the rest.
[50:07] It's material that.
[50:09] The county hasn't been using much.
[50:11] Historically and starting a year ago, I asked them to start using it.
[50:18] If you drag down.
[50:20] 2300 E right in front of our City Hall.
[50:24] We have some very wide black strips that is.
[50:27] The mastic.
[50:29] And what it does?
[50:31] It's a very strong.
[50:33] Seal over some alligator cracking areas and.
[50:37] Just preserves that from potholing.
[50:39] And it's very useful.
[50:41] Somewhat expensive material, but.
[50:43] That's what that is.
[50:45] And we're using less of it.
[50:47] To the county, at least.
[50:49] Well.
[50:51] They had bought.
[50:52] But well, yes, we are going to use less of it.
[50:56] I only want them to apply it.
[50:58] To collector roads, arterial roads.
[51:01] And other major.
[51:03] They had kind of budgeted originally.
[51:05] For local residential roads and I said no, I don't want.
[51:09] That on those roads.
[51:12] We done some.
[51:14] Cost shifting on that.
[51:16] And in return I.
[51:18] On the patching materials.
[51:20] Which are also going to be going on our collector.
[51:23] And.
[51:25] Arterial roads in anticipation of some microsurfacing that we would be.
[51:30] Laying next.
[51:31] Somewhere SO.
[51:33] Jerry can talk about the snowplow. Yeah, yeah, we're assuming it's going to snow again.
[51:39] So I will give you some good news this last winter.
[51:44] Our We had a very large surplus.
[51:47] In our snowplow material.
[51:49] Costs meaning we didn't use much on the roadways for the.
[51:54] De Icer and the salt.
[51:58] We were able to take that savings and.
[52:01] The county repaved Albert Leeway.
[52:05] Which wasn't a street that.
[52:07] We had taken to you guys for approval.
[52:09] County just say.
[52:10] Hey, we got extra money we need to spend in the next couple weeks, can we?
[52:14] Repave this road and I said.
[52:16] Oh yeah.
[52:17] Don't think anybody would complain about that. It's just.
[52:20] Extra money in the budget and we're.
[52:23] Also gonna complete 30th East.
[52:26] In the Mill Rock area, it's a short little stretch.
[52:29] But with the cost savings of our snow plowing.
[52:32] In salt material we were able to get.
[52:36] Roads repaved.
[52:38] This fiscal year.
[52:42] So the reason why?
[52:43] This coming fiscal year is the increase is because.
[52:47] They've got someone.
[52:48] Snowplow.
[52:49] Costs that they're replacing some snow plows.
[52:53] And.
[52:54] One snow plows like $200,000 and.
[52:58] Even though we're splitting it between.
[53:00] No Creek and.
[53:01] MSD.
[53:03] It still adds up.
[53:04] Because they're replacing more than one.
[53:06] So we're kind of getting hit with the.
[53:08] One time, so some capital.
[53:10] Expenditure that they're allocating in terms of the.
[53:13] Yeah.
[53:14] And they the salts.
[53:16] Believe it or not.
[53:19] Corrodes these machines at a very fast rate, so they're constantly being maintained, but they're ready to replace.
[53:27] Some of the ones that they have.
[53:30] Just in time.
[53:32] Folks to leave.
[53:35] Thanks, Jared.
[53:36] OK. Any other questions on this one?
[53:38] Go next.
[53:41] OK. So we are on to Historical Commission and I think Megan Adermann actually has a short presentation she wanted to give and then
[53:45] we'll jump back into the budget.
[54:07] Well, this is a lot.
[54:08] Scarier.
[54:09] Than it used to be.
[54:13] OK.
[54:19] All right.
[54:21] I think I'm the bridge between the Historical Commission and the Arts Council, so I'll be talking about both. Is that correct?
[54:28] OK, cool.
[54:32] I want to start out.
[54:34] By just thanking the amazing volunteers I have the privilege of working with.
[54:41] These are highly engaged.
[54:44] Residents, and I'm so grateful that they give.
[54:48] So freely of their time and expertise to.
[54:51] Making our communities such a.
[54:54] A great place to be.
[54:56] So I've listed them all here I want to call out especially.
[55:02] Commit executive committees.
[55:05] Of both the Arts Council and the Historical Commission. Fred Kraut, Kimberly England. Linda Etherington, Isla Barris.
[55:12] And then on the Historical Commission side, Kim Duffy, Rita Wright.
[55:16] Martha Bradley Evans.
[55:19] These are great people that give.
[55:21] Very freely of their time so.
[55:23] Thank you to them.
[55:27] Just overall, looking at arts and culture programming as a whole, this is these are numbers.
[55:34] Combining the Historical Commission and the Arts Council.
[55:39] We had over 25,000 attendees.
[55:43] Last calendar year.
[55:45] Which is a record for us.
[55:47] We have.
[55:48] 40 plus events which explains why we're tired and.
[55:52] And, umm.
[55:54] Our volunteers, like I mentioned, gave over 1500 hours of.
[55:58] Of their time.
[56:00] Which equates to.
[56:01] Pretty much a part time position, so we're so grateful for that.
[56:06] We also received.
[56:07] Over $100,000 in donations, grants and scholarships.
[56:11] On the right you can see sort of a pie chart.
[56:14] I do need to call out though that this does not include.
[56:18] Staff salaries, wages, benefits. This is just programming costs. How it's split up.
[56:23] Programming revenues.
[56:26] Earned income.
[56:28] And donations being our highest and then grants and transfer from the general fund being about equal.
[56:38] I appreciate.
[56:39] I mean, we are subsidizing some of it, but.
[56:42] Really, in a lot of ways you're very self succeeding. Yeah, yeah, we.
[56:46] We do a lot of work to bring stuff in as well.
[56:50] Next I've got a.
[56:51] Fun video, hopefully it works.
[56:55] Your sound is not working.
[57:17] You're good.
[57:42] You're good.
[57:47] Literally everyone has been there.
[57:49] Right.
[58:17] Well, it's more.
[58:19] Fun with the music, but.
[58:21] But essentially you can see.
[58:24] We are doing a lot.
[58:26] And our community is responding well to it.
[58:29] And they're coming out and supporting it.
[58:32] And having a lot of fun while they're doing it.
[58:39] If you want to see it with sound, it's also on our website and YouTube.
[59:01] Seriously, look at those crowds and everybody's having a right. I could not be more proud.
[59:05] My favorite clip is the.
[59:08] The concert where there's a man who's.
[59:11] Going across the crowd like this and.
[59:13] Like that guy is just having a great time and that's so fun.
[59:19] I want to mention.
[59:21] Both the Arts Councils and the Historical Commission's missions.
[59:25] The Arts Council's mission is to inspire, engage and unify the community through the arts and we encourage.
[59:32] Our community to discover themselves in art.
[59:34] The Holiday Historical Commission's mission is to identify, research, preserve and share the history of holiday through education,
[59:38] documentation and community engagement.
[59:43] I'm going to talk first about the Arts Council.
[59:47] The Arts Council is.
[59:49] For those of you who don't know, the City of Holidays local arts agency designated by the city.
[59:54] This is a term that's used.
[59:57] Nationally, even globally.
[59:59] To define umm.
[1:00:01] Municipal.
[1:00:03] Arts and culture activities.
[1:00:05] And as the local artists agency, there's a number of things that.
[1:00:09] We do.
[1:00:10] We provide access to diverse art forms.
[1:00:12] That invite public participation.
[1:00:15] We steward the city's.
[1:00:16] Art collection and.
[1:00:17] Manage the public art program.
[1:00:19] Produce and present community programs. Support arts education.
[1:00:23] Reflect community demographics and needs.
[1:00:26] Contribute to quality of life.
[1:00:28] And community identity.
[1:00:29] And support local artists and arts organizations.
[1:00:39] We do that through a number of programs.
[1:00:42] Our programs this.
[1:00:43] Past fiscal year include artists the month. You may remember that from City Hall as you walk in.
[1:00:49] On the left.
[1:00:50] We miss our wall.
[1:00:53] With artists with them on display. I'll talk a little bit more about artists a month later and what we're planning to do that with
[1:00:56] that program.
[1:00:59] During this.
[1:01:02] Time of transition.
[1:01:05] And I won't mention every single program here.
[1:01:08] Just because that will take a lot of time, but I do want to call out a few things.
[1:01:13] Our creative aging program.
[1:01:16] Is supported through a grant with the Utah Division of Arts and Museums.
[1:01:20] This past year we doubled our capacity.
[1:01:22] Allowing in.
[1:01:24] Two cohorts instead of 1 which?
[1:01:26] Equated to 16 students.
[1:01:28] This year.
[1:01:30] Our page to stage program is supported by Happy Healthy Holiday.
[1:01:35] They help us.
[1:01:36] To double our capacity to 35 students.
[1:01:40] That registration filled within an hour this year.
[1:01:44] We have a wait list of 10 students.
[1:01:46] Who wish that people would drop, but they probably won't.
[1:01:51] And along with that, Happy Healthy Holiday also improved our program strategies to better reflect.
[1:01:57] Protective factors for drug addiction like.
[1:02:01] Beefing up our recognition.
[1:02:03] Of the students at the end, as that is.
[1:02:05] A protective factor?
[1:02:07] Our Blue Moon Festival.
[1:02:10] Which is of course our annual arts festival.
[1:02:12] We took a big swing this past year and moved things over to the Plaza.
[1:02:16] Or I should say, back to the Plaza, as that's where it first began.
[1:02:21] We estimate about 4000 people were in attendance.
[1:02:26] And that was a.
[1:02:27] Fun time.
[1:02:29] Our merry Holiday market, also on the Plaza.
[1:02:32] This was a first time for us to do something along with the annual tree lighting.
[1:02:37] And.
[1:02:38] We earned, we sold nearly one point.
[1:02:42] 1500.
[1:02:44] Dollars in goods in 1 1/2 hours.
[1:02:47] Which is great. And all of that went straight back to the artist. We did not take Commission for that event.
[1:02:53] And then our of course our summer concert series this past year was super well attended.
[1:02:58] 13,687 people.
[1:03:01] We averaged 955 people per concert. That's excluding 4th of July.
[1:03:08] And five of the eight concerts had over 1000 people, which is a record for us.
[1:03:14] We also had.
[1:03:15] A concert in.
[1:03:17] The holiday time, A concert for A cause.
[1:03:20] In which we partnered with Hothouse West.
[1:03:22] And brought in $3327.00 which we were able to donate to local school food pantries.
[1:03:32] Next slide.
[1:03:33] Megan, do you think the.
[1:03:35] Move the.
[1:03:37] Bloomin Festival to the Plaza affected.
[1:03:40] The experience or the?
[1:03:42] Turn out.
[1:03:44] Our attendance numbers are.
[1:03:47] Kind of negligible.
[1:03:48] Same as.
[1:03:49] When it was at.
[1:03:50] Park, you can't make everybody happy. There were a few grumblies but most people were very pleased.
[1:03:57] The local business community in particular was very pleased.
[1:04:01] Anti rays.
[1:04:02] Mentioned that she got people from that event.
[1:04:06] Who are now regular customers who hadn't known she existed before so.
[1:04:10] That's what we were going for some.
[1:04:12] Better economic impact?
[1:04:14] Economic impact on our community instead of sort of.
[1:04:17] Vacating.
[1:04:18] The Plaza we were.
[1:04:20] Getting people there.
[1:04:23] Does that answer your question?
[1:04:27] We have an unusual year this year where we have two summer musicals that.
[1:04:33] That is just due to timing of changing.
[1:04:36] When we'll be doing our summer musical.
[1:04:38] Of course, last.
[1:04:40] Summer in August we had Newsies with a large cast of about 90 people, including.
[1:04:46] Our mayor here.
[1:04:48] And 3799 people attended that event, which is great for a first time.
[1:04:56] A first swing at.
[1:04:58] Community theater.
[1:05:00] We have Fiddler on the Roof upcoming that will be in the park this year.
[1:05:05] With a cast of 35, they're in rehearsals right now, rehearsing at the Holiday United Church of Christ.
[1:05:12] And this year we have decided to build in a mentorship program.
[1:05:17] For the production team members.
[1:05:20] With part.
[1:05:20] Through partnership with Umbrella Theater Company.
[1:05:24] I'll talk a little bit more about public art.
[1:05:27] In a minute on a different slide, but that is another program we are running.
[1:05:32] And then, of course, our art exhibits.
[1:05:34] Fine Art Show and Tiny Art show.
[1:05:37] This was a good last hurrah.
[1:05:39] For a little minute while we're out of our space, but.
[1:05:42] We had 343 artists.
[1:05:44] Come through for those 2 events.
[1:05:47] We displayed 815 pieces. 1881 people attended.
[1:05:52] And we sold $25,241.98.
[1:05:59] About 20,000 of that goes straight back to the artists.
[1:06:03] Great events.
[1:06:05] Really impactful to those artists.
[1:06:10] Next slide.
[1:06:15] For public art.
[1:06:17] This past year.
[1:06:18] We have been.
[1:06:19] At reworking.
[1:06:22] Or creating.
[1:06:24] A public art guide.
[1:06:26] And that will clarify our process and direction moving forward.
[1:06:30] That guide.
[1:06:32] It helps us establish sort of like what are our.
[1:06:35] What are our rules for the?
[1:06:37] This program, how do we keep this moving forward? It will utilize a subcommittee.
[1:06:43] Which may include staff.
[1:06:44] Members, members of the community and members of the Arts Council.
[1:06:48] To move projects forward.
[1:06:50] And this body and.
[1:06:53] Previous years has approved the use of our Arts fund balance to support new projects and our.
[1:06:59] Our public art consultant.
[1:07:02] To move those projects along.
[1:07:03] This past year, we added five new poems.
[1:07:06] To the root and together history walk.
[1:07:09] Very cool to get literary artists.
[1:07:11] A space to shine.
[1:07:14] And we also have a call open right now for four new utility box rats.
[1:07:20] So you can expect those to go in this summer.
[1:07:25] Switching now to the Historical Commission.
[1:07:29] We've got the Speaker Series, a really successful program, regularly getting 60 to 80 people in attendance.
[1:07:37] People travel from as far as Provo.
[1:07:40] That's the farthest I've heard so far.
[1:07:42] To come to these events.
[1:07:44] The audience is.
[1:07:46] Hyper engaged, they ask great questions.
[1:07:49] A lot of work goes into those to make them.
[1:07:52] Really fascinating.
[1:07:54] Our historic holiday tour, which is in celebration of.
[1:07:58] Preservation Month, which is.
[1:07:59] This month.
[1:08:01] You may see the green signs.
[1:08:02] Around holiday as you're driving or walking around.
[1:08:06] Last year.
[1:08:07] We had.
[1:08:09] About 12,000 hits.
[1:08:11] On our website.
[1:08:14] This year we have.
[1:08:16] Gotten 2000s.
[1:08:18] So far.
[1:08:20] The interesting thing looking at our analytic.
[1:08:23] Analytical analytics from last year, which are a little more detailed than what I have for this year.
[1:08:28] The average time spent on those pages is not just like a quick on and off like you would kind of expect when someone is met with.
[1:08:36] 10 paragraphs of text.
[1:08:38] About a house.
[1:08:39] But the average time spent on a page is one hour and 12 minutes.
[1:08:43] So people are really engaged in that program. They're not just.
[1:08:47] Scanning the QR code and leaving right away which?
[1:08:50] I was honestly shocked by.
[1:08:54] Our rooted together.
[1:08:56] History Walk and the monuments around town have gone in.
[1:09:01] Big thanks to the steering committee and Holly Smith.
[1:09:03] For steering that effort.
[1:09:05] We celebrated.
[1:09:07] With a ribbon cutting this past Monday.
[1:09:09] We had about 50 people in attendance on a very cold day, which I was.
[1:09:14] Very pleasantly surprised by.
[1:09:17] And our next?
[1:09:18] Efforts toward.
[1:09:21] Finalizing rooted together is our artifact preservation accession.
[1:09:26] Deaccession.
[1:09:27] And then ethical storage and display of.
[1:09:30] Our our collection.
[1:09:33] Including.
[1:09:34] Putting together an established collections management policy.
[1:09:39] So fun to talk about policy.
[1:09:43] The History Fair was an effort by the Historical Commission to involve more children and families.
[1:09:48] It had games and a scavenger hunt.
[1:09:53] And bingo and got a lot of businesses to donate.
[1:09:57] The attendance was.
[1:09:59] 1st thank you Natalie for being there.
[1:10:03] It was fun.
[1:10:04] But what we learned from it was that.
[1:10:07] If we are going to engage with children and families, we've got to go to them instead of asking them to come to us.
[1:10:13] Or historical Commission.
[1:10:15] So you'll see that reflected in our request for this coming year.
[1:10:19] In addition, we've been working on getting oral histories that have been gathered by.
[1:10:25] Our community.
[1:10:26] Up onto YouTube and then gathering new oral histories.
[1:10:30] And so those, we have a number of them available on YouTube right now.
[1:10:34] We have a few.
[1:10:35] Backblogged that I need to get up still.
[1:10:37] And then a couple that.
[1:10:39] Are planned.
[1:10:42] OK.
[1:10:44] Looking forward to the.
[1:10:46] Future.
[1:10:47] I mentioned that.
[1:10:49] Artist The month is going to look a little different as we're out of the building, but we don't want that program to go away.
[1:10:56] It's a great partnership with the City Journal that highlights those artists.
[1:11:01] A great way to highlight.
[1:11:04] Actual residents of holiday. This is our only program that's.
[1:11:07] Reserved for residents of holiday.
[1:11:11] So we've decided to partner with four lemons.
[1:11:14] Over on Highland Drive to do.
[1:11:16] Pop-up exhib.
[1:11:19] So this would be a one night.
[1:11:21] Come and celebrate this artist.
[1:11:23] We're hoping to highlight two artists.
[1:11:25] At each event to drive more traffic on that day.
[1:11:30] And we're excited about that.
[1:11:32] Opportunity.
[1:11:33] The art lot.
[1:11:35] Which we hope to do in.
[1:11:37] Partnership with the Holiday Business Advisory Board.
[1:11:41] Is moving.
[1:11:43] We are out of City Hall hallways, a gallery space.
[1:11:48] Many, many galleries.
[1:11:50] In businesses.
[1:11:52] We're working with Holiday Business Advisory Board to identify what those businesses would be.
[1:11:57] And how exactly that looks?
[1:11:59] But that is.
[1:12:02] The Arts Council's.
[1:12:03] Swing at trying to serve those artists while we're out of.
[1:12:07] Our building they still need.
[1:12:09] Places to show their work.
[1:12:12] And finally.
[1:12:14] Looking at.
[1:12:16] Putting together a concert that's specifically for children.
[1:12:21] Designed for children at a time that works great for children.
[1:12:25] And in a location that works great for children, so that is on their request as well.
[1:12:29] And the Historic Garden Tour is not a new program necessarily. It's.
[1:12:34] A new partnership?
[1:12:35] Between Holiday Arts Council and the Historical Commission.
[1:12:39] Where we would be moving the plein-air quick draw.
[1:12:42] To a historic garden.
[1:12:46] We're hoping that pans out.
[1:12:47] It's we're working with a property owner so we'll see what happens.
[1:12:53] The Historical Commission's cemetery tour is one of those.
[1:12:57] Programs they're looking to implement to.
[1:13:00] Draw.
[1:13:01] Children and families.
[1:13:04] While also highlighting this great historic cemetery that we have in our community.
[1:13:09] And the stories of.
[1:13:10] Holidays founders, which are many of them, are buried there.
[1:13:15] And finally rooted together outreach. This is in replacement of.
[1:13:18] The History Fair.
[1:13:21] Going directly to the schools and then inviting them to.
[1:13:26] Visit our.
[1:13:28] Exhibit in the park.
[1:13:31] I am not going to talk about numbers, but I'll leave that to Christian.
[1:13:36] But I'll be here if you have questions about it.
[1:13:40] And just in general I want to.
[1:13:43] I'm like a former children's theater.
[1:13:45] Teacher So we would do a yay and a Boo at the end of every.
[1:13:49] Class to sort of.
[1:13:51] What how people are feeling at the end of the class. So this is my.
[1:13:55] Yay and Boo for the end of this year.
[1:13:58] Yeah, that our attendance is growing. Our demand for arts and culture education is increasing. We're seeing that.
[1:14:04] Both in.
[1:14:05] The Arts Council and the Historical Commission.
[1:14:08] And our volunteers remain deeply engaged.
[1:14:10] Boo that our state grant support is decreasing.
[1:14:14] And that's not specific to us.
[1:14:16] It's it's sector wide.
[1:14:19] Our sponsorship support has been less predictable this year.
[1:14:23] And some programs are.
[1:14:25] Capacity like.
[1:14:26] Our page to stage with its.
[1:14:28] Big wait list.
[1:14:29] And others.
[1:14:31] Tend to stretch our resources then.
[1:14:35] I don't know. I know that I don't need to convince this body about why arts and culture matters.
[1:14:40] But essentially what it comes down to is.
[1:14:42] What looks like simple support for a fun event is really just a serious investment in holidays long term community infrastructure.
[1:14:49] I'm so grateful for the support.
[1:14:51] Support that you all have given to.
[1:14:54] To the work being done by these.
[1:14:55] By these committees.
[1:14:58] It's the success isn't accidental, it's the result of our intentional volunteers.
[1:15:03] Careful stewardship and many years of.
[1:15:05] Your support, so thank you for continuing to make this work a priority.
[1:15:14] Whenever we do our.
[1:15:15] Surveys, of course, of our citizens.
[1:15:17] The popularity of our arts and culture offerings are always.
[1:15:21] The biggest word on the words?
[1:15:24] What do you call it, the word scramble or the?
[1:15:26] Word Cloud.
[1:15:27] Yeah, so.
[1:15:29] Yeah, holiday is considered.
[1:15:32] The cool kids because of our arts.
[1:15:34] Culture programs so.
[1:15:36] Appreciate all you do.
[1:15:38] We're back to the fun part.
[1:15:41] Can we go back a little bit more?
[1:15:47] OK, so this is just a.
[1:15:49] Quick breakdown of the Historical Commission.
[1:15:52] Cost by the individual events we have, the Speaker Series and the Historic Holiday Tour and the Rooted Together are the most
[1:15:57] expensive events.
[1:16:03] But for some context, the fiscal year 2026 Historical Commission budget was 11,000, so we are.
[1:16:09] Looking at an increase this year.
[1:16:12] The other thing to note on this as well is that the garden tour program we're anticipating will generate a little revenue of $750,
[1:16:15] so.
[1:16:20] Some context around those events.
[1:16:23] If there's any comment from the council we can.
[1:16:26] You can look at those or.
[1:16:27] We're getting significant bang for those.
[1:16:30] Few dollars.
[1:16:31] Agreed.
[1:16:32] Delighted that the number is that small.
[1:16:34] OK.
[1:16:36] OK, so.
[1:16:38] For this slide I wanted to.
[1:16:41] Give a little bit of context for the Council.
[1:16:43] Comparing to fiscal year 2026.
[1:16:47] We have a pretty significant decrease in the amount of revenue that we're anticipating to collect in the Arts fund. A big piece of
[1:16:51] this is just that we are having.
[1:16:56] One community theater event versus 2.
[1:16:59] So that's a reduction in revenue as well. But a major piece too is in fiscal year 26, we received a pretty significant one time
[1:17:04] donation that we're not anticipating to receive into fiscal year 27.
[1:17:10] The ticket sales as a result of community theater.
[1:17:13] We're getting a reduction in grant revenue from the state, which Megan had mentioned alcohol sales we had previously for the Blue
[1:17:18] Moon event. In the past, the city had sold the alcohol itself. Instead, we've moved to a contracted model where we have a third
[1:17:23] party that comes and does that for us.
[1:17:29] And then other changes about $4800. So we have a.
[1:17:32] Overall decrease in anticipated revenue of $75,000.
[1:17:36] That's pretty significant.
[1:17:38] The other side of that story is we have.
[1:17:40] Some reduction in expense that we're seeing as well.
[1:17:42] The events expenses.
[1:17:44] I can get your breakdown of this if you're interested.
[1:17:47] But overall, the events were reducing the expense by 36,000.
[1:17:51] 900.
[1:17:52] Employee benefits are going down slightly. This has just changed. A change in an employee's election of which benefits they're
[1:17:55] selecting.
[1:17:59] And then we have a reduction in contribution to fund balance. That's just because in 26 we had anticipated to have a contribution,
[1:18:03] in 27 we're not.
[1:18:09] And then we have an increase in expenses, which is for salaries and wages and benefits of 2300.
[1:18:17] And then the overall decrease that we're planning is a decrease of 59,000. That leaves us with a delta of $15,944.
[1:18:26] To make up that delta, this budget contemplates a reduction in the transfer for salaries. As I discussed, there's a change in the
[1:18:31] benefits election, so that's reducing by $9000.
[1:18:36] And then we have an increase in the.
[1:18:38] Transfer for, specifically the.
[1:18:40] The Concert Series In years past, typically the General Fund has only transferred to the Arts Fund for the concert series and for
[1:18:44] salaries and benefits.
[1:18:49] This budget contemplates doing an additional transfer to help to supplement.
[1:18:54] Some of those other events that Megan had mentioned.
[1:18:57] And that is how we would.
[1:18:59] Recommend.
[1:19:00] Making up that difference and.
[1:19:01] The next slide.
[1:19:03] If you'd go to the next one, Stephanie, I'm breaking down.
[1:19:07] Some of the individual events.
[1:19:09] And to how those revenues are being made-up so?
[1:19:12] In this top section here.
[1:19:14] I've broken out all the expenses net of the revenue that they generate. So administration obviously doesn't generate revenue, it's
[1:19:19] mainly salaries and non event specific expenditures.
[1:19:25] So it's just a flat out expense of 97,000?
[1:19:28] And then Artist of the Month, so artist of the month net of the revenue which we anticipate will generate will cost 2600.
[1:19:35] And so on and so forth through all of the events, with the most expensive ones being.
[1:19:40] Blue Moon.
[1:19:40] Community theater.
[1:19:42] And the summer concert series, which?
[1:19:44] In years past was entirely supplemented with the transfer from the General fund.
[1:19:49] Now the other side of that is the revenue sources of how we intend to pay for it.
[1:19:55] In fiscal year 27, we're anticipating a ZAP grant of 8100.
[1:19:59] And then we have a grant coming from the state for 21,000.
[1:20:03] For a total of 29,000 and those aren't tied to a specific event.
[1:20:06] So we can use those to fund any event.
[1:20:08] The Council would like.
[1:20:10] But it is obviously less than the overall delta that we need to make up.
[1:20:14] So then we have the transfer which.
[1:20:16] Years past the Council has been supportive of for salaries and benefits of 94,000, the transfer for the concert series of 45,000.
[1:20:23] And then the new transfer, which we haven't done in years past, would be an.
[1:20:26] Increase of $18,000 of a transfer from.
[1:20:29] The general fund.
[1:20:30] Is that, is that clear? It's it's kind of a.
[1:20:33] A lot, but I thought this was a good way to show.
[1:20:37] The actual cost of events that there's been a minor expansion.
[1:20:42] In in the request.
[1:20:43] Right being 18,000 tailors are sort of.
[1:20:47] SOP relative to previous years.
[1:20:49] Correct, with the exception being those grants going down.
[1:20:52] Yeah.
[1:20:55] And I think what we would like to receive from the Council.
[1:20:58] Tonight is any sort of guidance, if they're comfortable with the general fund supplementing those other events in that way where
[1:21:01] we haven't done that in the past?
[1:21:05] This is the coolest thing we do.
[1:21:10] And well.
[1:21:11] OK, so in context.
[1:21:13] How many square yards?
[1:21:17] Concrete with this cover.
[1:21:20] On a Rd.
[1:21:22] Not much so.
[1:21:24] Given that I.
[1:21:26] I'm just so delighted that.
[1:21:28] And this is a bigger number, the Historical Commission, obviously, but we just get so much.
[1:21:33] Bang for the buck out of our.
[1:21:35] Arts and Culture program.
[1:21:39] I also think.
[1:21:40] As you pointed out, some of the more popular services we provide to the community.
[1:21:44] That's what makes holiday.
[1:21:47] Holiday.
[1:21:48] I mean, also roads are important. No, don't mean to denigrate the importance of having our roads dealt with.
[1:21:56] But uh.
[1:21:57] Yeah, this is.
[1:21:59] That's the necessity. But then this is the sizzle, so.
[1:22:03] Under 200,000 for some sizzle.
[1:22:05] The amount of sizzle we get I think is.
[1:22:07] I'm supportive.
[1:22:08] No objection, Your Honor.
[1:22:11] Great. Thank you.
[1:22:12] Anyway, I mean I.
[1:22:13] Even any contrary points of view I'm.
[1:22:15] I don't mean to speak with the old councils.
[1:22:22] OK, there you have it.
[1:22:24] Gina, did you have something you wanted to add? No, I was just going to ask for the same clarification the mayor did so.
[1:22:29] Thank you.
[1:22:33] OK, Now we're on to the really fun stuff. Capital projects. Great.
[1:22:39] OK. So the capital projects fund this year we're anticipating about $1.4 million in revenue.
[1:22:46] With.
[1:22:47] A transfer from the General fund of 700,000. Interest revenue of 600,000. The Capital Projects fund has roughly $20 million in
[1:22:51] cash right now.
[1:22:56] That's sort of the math of about 3% of interest on that 20 million.
[1:23:01] Impact.
[1:23:03] Changes pretty significantly from year to year just depending on the development the city sees. So generally we like to.
[1:23:09] Put a number that's fairly conservative.
[1:23:12] For those impact fees.
[1:23:14] And the other side of the impact fees we transfer to the debt service to help supplement a bond which the city had issued a few
[1:23:20] years ago. And so that's the story with impact fees paving projects in years past we've.
[1:23:26] We've typically tried to keep that paving budget around 700,000.
[1:23:31] With the knowledge that a portion of those paving costs also come out of the county.
[1:23:35] Contracts. So this is a separate budget. 750,000 The city goes out and hires contractors to do paving improvements.
[1:23:42] Unrestricted capital projects This is an item which.
[1:23:46] From year to year it varies on if the overall budget gets used, but generally the thought behind it is.
[1:23:52] To help.
[1:23:52] Have a little bit of cash set aside for things that come up that we're not necessarily anticipating.
[1:23:58] Canuteson Park expansion This is for a small lot that's near the cotton bottom between.
[1:24:04] By Knutson.
[1:24:05] In this budget is.
[1:24:07] Specifically being set aside, I think it's.
[1:24:10] There's some studies that we're planning with this and then we're eventually going to try to figure out what to do with this small
[1:24:12] lot.
[1:24:16] Sidewalk replacement. This was the other side of what I previously mentioned with the study we're going to be doing looking at
[1:24:19] the.
[1:24:22] The sidewalk infrastructure in the city.
[1:24:25] And this is set aside to actually improve those sidewalks.
[1:24:29] I previously mentioned the transfer to debt service and then we have a transfer to the grants fund of 274,000 and we'll get into
[1:24:34] more detail on that on the next slide when I talk about grants funds.
[1:24:39] And then we have.
[1:24:40] Other.
[1:24:41] Other capital projects of 219,000, I just have a couple notes here on what's going into that included in that 219.
[1:24:49] Bus shelters, crosswalk upgrades and impact fee study, which is something the city's been meaning to do for a long time.
[1:24:56] Ours is pretty old at this point so we're looking to do a new one.
[1:25:01] We have our 5050 sidewalk program and then we have some traffic signal maintenance, but that's the majority. If the council is
[1:25:06] interested in an all inclusive list, you can always reference back to the the budget itself.
[1:25:11] But, and you'll notice we also have an intended use of fund balance within the capital projects fund of 319,000.
[1:25:19] And generally with this, a lot of those line items specifically like the unrestricted capital projects or the sidewalk
[1:25:24] replacement, we don't necessarily know every year if we're going to expend all those funds.
[1:25:30] So we're relatively comfortable saying, you know we're gonna appropriate fund balance because some years.
[1:25:35] The things will happen in some years they won't and then typical years at the end of the fiscal year.
[1:25:40] If there's excess cash within the general fund, we end up transferring that over if the council remembers. It's a pretty typical
[1:25:44] thing we do near the end of the year and.
[1:25:49] Actually, a future budget amendment this year, we'll include that as well.
[1:25:53] So if there are no questions on that one, we can go to the grants fund.
[1:25:59] OK. And then?
[1:26:01] If things get crazy here, I might have to call in Holly.
[1:26:04] But the grants fund, so starting off with the Highland Dr. UDOT project.
[1:26:10] This is a.
[1:26:12] A bill by.
[1:26:14] Project, which basically just means it's not managed by the city, it's managed by UDOT. It's a $3.6 million.
[1:26:20] With the city's portion $3.8 million project.
[1:26:24] Where uh.
[1:26:25] They'll manage the project, they'll do the work, and then they'll send us a bill.
[1:26:28] And then we'll pay them. So our portion is the 261, but it's actually.
[1:26:32] A $3.8 million project.
[1:26:35] Next we have.
[1:26:36] How does that relate to the?
[1:26:38] The future Highland Dr. expansion.
[1:26:41] Project. That's a great question, Holly.
[1:26:52] So this money is specifically for design?
[1:26:54] So the money we have right now, we have a.
[1:26:57] Fully funded right away acquisition and design. So that's going to move forward.
[1:27:01] And then we've also got some grants for construction and then we have a big delta for construction that we're chipping away on. So
[1:27:04] it all.
[1:27:08] Fits together.
[1:27:09] OK, Yeah.
[1:27:10] So this is.
[1:27:12] All towards that, it's not like they're doing stuff.
[1:27:15] They're building OK? Yep.
[1:27:17] No.
[1:27:20] Thanks.
[1:27:21] The housing Rehabilitation program. This is a program that is being managed by Anne Garcia.
[1:27:27] If the Council remembers.
[1:27:29] Partnered with a third party that they're actually managing the majority of this work and then the.
[1:27:33] The city is going to award the funds.
[1:27:36] With the majority of this project being.
[1:27:40] A grant.
[1:27:41] On the city match portion is only $10,160.00, so the majority 220,000 of this is the grant funds.
[1:27:49] The next one, the 2700 E Project infill.
[1:27:53] This is for sidewalk infill on 2700 E.
[1:27:57] It is a $1.3 million project with the city portion being.
[1:28:02] That 99,000 and this is similar to the UDOT project where?
[1:28:05] They do the work and then we eventually get billed.
[1:28:10] OK, the next one, auditorium redesign, this one.
[1:28:13] I believe has been in previous budgets and should be relatively familiar to.
[1:28:17] The the Council. This is for the auditorium redesign at our old City Hall building, which is currently underway.
[1:28:24] Um.
[1:28:26] But the revenue side?
[1:28:28] Track funds of 7:30 with the track funds being 7:30 and then.
[1:28:32] The Delta there being the city's match portion, yes.
[1:28:35] And then we have the gazebo improvements which this is associated with.
[1:28:39] The Happy Healthy Holiday Grant, we're using a portion of those grant funds we've been awarded to help to improve the gazebo.
[1:28:45] That is at our old City home.
[1:28:48] And then we have our signal optimization grant.
[1:28:51] And then we have the 45th South.
[1:28:53] Sidewalk extension.
[1:28:55] With the city portion on this one being the 67,350.
[1:28:59] And if the council notices, you'll notice the.
[1:29:02] Budgeted revenue compared to the budgeted expenses significantly less.
[1:29:06] The reason for that is because a lot of these projects cross fiscal years. So if we originally.
[1:29:11] Started this project in fiscal year 26 and we transferred the funds from the capital projects fund to the grants fund.
[1:29:17] And the project didn't happen in fiscal year 26.
[1:29:21] That cash that was transferred in in the previous fiscal year is just sitting there. So now we're appropriating that fund balance
[1:29:25] which was a previously a transfer in.
[1:29:29] From the Capital Projects Fund.
[1:29:33] OK. Were there any questions on grants?
[1:29:36] And one additional thing to mention with this is this is really a starting point. We have a lot of other grants that are currently
[1:29:41] in the works. A lot of times with these what we like to do.
[1:29:45] Is we don't include them in the budget until they're formally awarded.
[1:29:49] So we have other grants that are out there that Holly is is working on, but they come along when they come along and we do a
[1:29:52] budget amendment.
[1:29:55] That's correct, yes.
[1:29:57] OK.
[1:29:58] Yeah.
[1:30:03] So our grant program essentially has five different.
[1:30:06] Types of projects. So we have the projects that were funded that are complete.
[1:30:10] This grants fund represents projects that are grant funded that are active.
[1:30:15] And then we have grant funded projects.
[1:30:17] That are just waiting for kickoff.
[1:30:19] We also have, as Christian just said, we have applications that are under funding consideration.
[1:30:25] So some of those we are actually recommended for funding and we're just waiting for final.
[1:30:29] Decision. So we've got a number of those just we have three that are waiting that are pretty significant.
[1:30:35] And then as you remember, the build Grant in particular is still hanging out there, so.
[1:30:39] There's like $20 million that we're waiting for funding decision and you'll start to see some budget amendments that bring those
[1:30:42] into this.
[1:30:45] This table.
[1:30:46] But just know there's a bigger program. So if you're like, it feels like we're missing things. We are, we're missing things here,
[1:30:49] so.
[1:30:52] Thanks, Kristen.
[1:30:55] Thanks, Holly.
[1:30:57] OK. Any questions on grants before we move on?
[1:31:00] Good. OK.
[1:31:01] Let's get more.
[1:31:04] OK, stormwater fun. OK, this top graphic really shows.
[1:31:09] The story of the Stormwater Fund over the last few years.
[1:31:12] It was really new in fiscal year 2324 we issued and we have those bond proceeds. That blue bar is where we started to spend the
[1:31:17] first of those bond proceeds.
[1:31:22] Fiscal year 25, we really spent the bulk of them and then 26 we spent sort of wrapping up the bond and we.
[1:31:27] To this date, we've spent.
[1:31:29] The majority of it we have a small amount set aside which we're planning to use for arbitrage rebate liability.
[1:31:34] Which that's going to be a future conversation that.
[1:31:36] Super fun.
[1:31:38] The next thing to note on this, if you look at the lower graphic, you see the.
[1:31:43] The large blue, light blue section that is associated with the debt service payment from the bond we had issued. So it's by far
[1:31:48] the largest expense within the fund.
[1:31:53] And then we have the operating which is just.
[1:31:56] General stormwater maintenance, some curb and gutter budget.
[1:31:59] And then finally we have personnel and then.
[1:32:02] We have personnel and then finally we have the capital outlay which is the Mountain Olympus Junior High project, which.
[1:32:09] We're hoping to do in fiscal year 27, so.
[1:32:13] And then we can go next.
[1:32:18] OK, and now here I have a breakdown of.
[1:32:21] The revenue and expenses within the stormwater fund.
[1:32:23] The stormwater utility fee we're estimating about 1.16 million.
[1:32:28] And generally from year to year, this.
[1:32:30] Doesn't increase unless.
[1:32:32] The council considers A stormwater utility rate increase. I think it's about.
[1:32:36] Half a percent per year.
[1:32:37] That we generally see an increase and that's mainly from new growth type items and then we have a little bit of interest revenue.
[1:32:45] About 40,000 is what I'm estimating.
[1:32:47] And that's it for revenue?
[1:32:49] Within within.
[1:32:50] Expenses we have 189,000 which is personnel.
[1:32:54] Operations and Maintenance 289,000, that was what I previously mentioned with the.
[1:32:58] The curb and gutter costs.
[1:33:00] The debt service portion and then the Mount Olympus storm drain outfall.
[1:33:04] And then in fiscal year 27, we're anticipating A contribution to fund balance of.
[1:33:09] Just over $1000.
[1:33:11] And then for additional context, I just wanted to mention.
[1:33:14] The Council is.
[1:33:16] Currently considering a $1.00 increase per ERU, which is about a 15% increase in the overall revenue for the stormwater fund,
[1:33:20] specifically the utility revenue.
[1:33:25] $181,000.
[1:33:27] And this budget does not include that increase because it's still pending the council's decision. If the council decides to move
[1:33:34] forward with that, what would happen is we would likely work with Rocky Mountain Power and we would anticipate that that.
[1:33:40] Increase would take effect in January.
[1:33:42] Of this weird.
[1:33:44] Of calendar year.
[1:33:45] 2020.
[1:33:47] What does ERU stand for?
[1:33:50] Equivalent residential unit.
[1:33:52] So is that $1.00?
[1:33:54] From that month is that.
[1:33:55] Yes, $1.00 per month. So the.
[1:33:57] The current rate right now is $6.50. This would.
[1:34:01] Take it to.
[1:34:02] To 750.
[1:34:04] OK. And we'd likely see that?
[1:34:06] The impact being certainly on the revenue side, but then also primarily.
[1:34:10] Bumping up.
[1:34:11] Operations and maintenance on the expense side because we.
[1:34:14] Would expect personnel or debt service to change or.
[1:34:16] Correct specific project, so it would be.
[1:34:19] Bulking up our.
[1:34:20] OPS and maintenance.
[1:34:22] Correct, we would.
[1:34:23] We would either bulk up operations and maintenance or we could look at it from the perspective of we're trying to build a little
[1:34:27] bit of fund balance so that we can tackle a larger project.
[1:34:31] Where the stormwater fund already has a pretty significant bond, it's likely not a direction we could take later on. So we would.
[1:34:38] Anticipation.
[1:34:39] Gotcha. That we would build some fund balance and right maybe larger projects, so.
[1:34:45] Any questions on the Stormwater Fund?
[1:34:50] I think we're done then.
[1:34:52] Oh, Jared's got.
[1:34:53] Jared wants to make some.
[1:35:01] Well, normally I would present much of that, but.
[1:35:03] Thankfully, I have a very great colleague who.
[1:35:07] Has done an excellent job.
[1:35:09] And preparing much more detailed.
[1:35:12] On that budget than I could ever.
[1:35:14] Provide so.
[1:35:15] Just want to let you guys know how great Christian is in.
[1:35:19] His accounting work.
[1:35:23] Also.
[1:35:26] Megan disappear.
[1:35:28] I mean, yeah.
[1:35:30] She does amazing work.
[1:35:33] Can't believe.
[1:35:35] 40 events a year.
[1:35:37] So very impressive.
[1:35:40] Anyways, a few updates on our projects. Highland Drive.
[1:35:44] Bridge, which is a huge impact to our community.
[1:35:49] Especially, especially the businesses along Highland Drive.
[1:35:52] It's expected to be done.
[1:35:54] The first.
[1:35:55] Week in July.
[1:35:57] As we do.
[1:36:00] No, contractors sometimes don't always finish on time, so.
[1:36:05] That is the current schedule, but.
[1:36:06] Don't be surprised if it does fall into the second week in July.
[1:36:11] But they the contractor there is doing amazing work on a very difficult project.
[1:36:17] And the community, for the most part, has.
[1:36:21] Not issued a lot of complaints at us.
[1:36:25] And has done a pretty good job working with the businesses and trying to.
[1:36:30] Expressed sympathy for their plight. Can I ask a question about that, Jared? Absolutely, since the traffic pattern has changed
[1:36:34] now.
[1:36:38] I have noticed the few times I have gone through.
[1:36:41] The where the light is where you can turn in by the Chase Bank.
[1:36:46] Now, people.
[1:36:48] Heading South?
[1:36:50] Are really struggling of.
[1:36:51] Do I stop there?
[1:36:53] Even though the light.
[1:36:54] The light is there because it's.
[1:36:56] Offset yes, I know exactly what you're talking. And so there's been I almost saw an accident the other day where.
[1:37:03] The person had the left turn and was turning left as they could and someone was wanting to come through.
[1:37:08] Other people who the light was green to go and they just stood there and they're like, what am I supposed to do? OK.
[1:37:14] I will ask them to.
[1:37:16] They could put up a sign that says.
[1:37:19] Something to the effect as.
[1:37:22] Stop on red.
[1:37:23] Because I think what?
[1:37:24] This is happening, people.
[1:37:25] Come to the intersection and they.
[1:37:28] Don't think that that light applies to them anymore. So they're kind of into a yield.
[1:37:33] Mentality and if the cars not.
[1:37:36] Coming a turn, then they just go through the red light.
[1:37:40] So I'll I'll have them do stop on red.
[1:37:43] Signed. Thank you.
[1:37:50] Second uh.
[1:37:52] Our City Hall project is going well. We have had a few.
[1:37:56] Unknowns.
[1:37:57] Turns out there's an asbestos floor underneath our.
[1:38:01] Wood floor in the big Cottonwood room.
[1:38:05] Kind of delaying things also.
[1:38:09] Under the platform up there so.
[1:38:14] But for the most part, the project.
[1:38:16] Is going well.
[1:38:18] I just wanted to.
[1:38:20] Give a big shout out to John.
[1:38:23] Joe, Stephanie and Chad who were all.
[1:38:27] Huge.
[1:38:29] Lifters in the move?
[1:38:31] Over here to the City Hall.
[1:38:34] I don't know if any of you guys were here.
[1:38:37] When the space was first showed to us, but it was a disaster and a mess.
[1:38:44] It took a lot of work to get the space ready again.
[1:38:48] It looks great now.
[1:38:49] And it was definitely a big team effort.
[1:38:54] We are gearing up for our Spring Lane project.
[1:39:00] Hopefully you guys are happy with what?
[1:39:02] Is being proposed.
[1:39:04] In future.
[1:39:07] Sessions here.
[1:39:08] We've got a lot of work coming up with additional curb, gutter, ADA sidewalks and ramps and.
[1:39:15] Things like that. We've got additional sidewalks being constructed on 2700 E.
[1:39:20] That probably won't be starting until next spring.
[1:39:24] I was hoping to get it started this year.
[1:39:26] But.
[1:39:28] Working with UDOT, they just.
[1:39:30] Can't help but.
[1:39:32] Slow everything down.
[1:39:34] They just can't help it.
[1:39:37] The 45th South.
[1:39:38] Sidewalk project will.
[1:39:42] Hopefully go to bid.
[1:39:43] In the next.
[1:39:44] Month or two, so we're getting ready to.
[1:39:46] Get that constructed this summer.
[1:39:49] Early fall.
[1:39:51] The Highland Drive.
[1:39:54] Project.
[1:39:55] The preliminary design is underway.
[1:39:58] And we will.
[1:40:00] Keep you updated on that regularly as well.
[1:40:04] Going back to sidewalks.
[1:40:07] I recall 5600 S was.
[1:40:09] Top of the list? What happened there?
[1:40:11] Well, can I share the news?
[1:40:15] It's most likely that that will be awarded to us. We received word this week that.
[1:40:21] It is being recommended for.
[1:40:24] Funding.
[1:40:26] We should know.
[1:40:29] I think in the first week of July.
[1:40:30] With certainty.
[1:40:32] But because that's outside money, that's doing that.
[1:40:35] It is, yeah.
[1:40:36] We like outside money, so that money, that money would actually become available in October.
[1:40:43] So that would be a project that we would hope to.
[1:40:47] Well, there's two.
[1:40:49] OPS UDOT recognizes their problem with delivering projects, so they've already told me.
[1:40:55] That they're going to look to swap that money.
[1:40:58] With local.
[1:41:00] Project.
[1:41:01] Well, I'm not sure exactly what they swap it with.
[1:41:04] But anyways.
[1:41:05] We lose a little bit of that money in return for.
[1:41:09] Getting them out of the project.
[1:41:12] So they're already thinking about how they can.
[1:41:16] Extract themselves.
[1:41:18] From the project.
[1:41:20] If that's the case, we could most certainly.
[1:41:23] Probably get that.
[1:41:25] Designed over the winter and bid.
[1:41:28] Constructed next summer.
[1:41:30] Easily, umm.
[1:41:31] If they.
[1:41:32] Can't figure out a way to extract themselves then.
[1:41:36] Who knows how long it'll take.
[1:41:38] A very long time.
[1:41:40] But yeah, excited to announce that up.
[1:41:42] Project we.
[1:41:43] Will most likely get funding for.
[1:41:46] We're going to be replacing some of the pavers in our.
[1:41:51] Village.
[1:41:53] Plaza the last.
[1:41:55] 3 crosswalks.
[1:41:57] That were built from that old stone.
[1:42:01] Worn away.
[1:42:02] Over on.
[1:42:04] Laney and Holiday Blvd. so.
[1:42:07] One Saturday that's done, all of those crosswalks will have been replaced.
[1:42:11] We are.
[1:42:12] Currently I.
[1:42:14] Getting ready to finalize the design for our signal optimization project. You know this is well over $1,000,000 and.
[1:42:22] Signal upgrades.
[1:42:24] This is a grant project, so.
[1:42:27] Very beautiful.
[1:42:28] To the state who has given us that.
[1:42:31] Money to be able to.
[1:42:33] Maintain our.
[1:42:36] Traffic signals in a very.
[1:42:38] Highly optimal way.
[1:42:40] Jared yeah, Speaking of.
[1:42:42] Laney and.
[1:42:44] That intersection it seems.
[1:42:47] Now correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like whenever I am.
[1:42:51] Going along Highland or Holiday Blvd. up.
[1:42:54] To twenty 30s to go past the.
[1:42:58] City Hall.
[1:42:59] That left turn lane.
[1:43:02] Even though there are no cars.
[1:43:05] The left turn lane for cars.
[1:43:07] Going up.
[1:43:10] What is it turning?
[1:43:13] East.
[1:43:14] That left turn lights always on.
[1:43:17] The left turns.
[1:43:19] Arrow. Has anybody else noticed that?
[1:43:22] Coming north.
[1:43:24] If you're going South.
[1:43:26] This is in front of my pie, right by my.
[1:43:30] 300, yeah.
[1:43:31] Laney Building.
[1:43:32] OK, Yeah, I don't. Anyway, can you?
[1:43:36] Just take a look at that.
[1:43:39] Yes, because.
[1:43:41] The cars back out, you know, when you're trying to.
[1:43:44] Come out of the parking lot.
[1:43:46] At Harmons.
[1:43:48] And you're trying to go.
[1:43:50] Go north.
[1:43:53] It seems like.
[1:43:54] Cars are always streaming past.
[1:43:57] Going South.
[1:43:58] But still completely stopped going on.
[1:44:02] The eastbound left turn.
[1:44:05] Left to to go E Yes, Left to go east.
[1:44:09] OK, southbound.
[1:44:11] Yeah, yeah.
[1:44:16] Sorry to be.
[1:44:18] I I've noticed that a number of times.
[1:44:25] Excited that you guys are continuing to fund our repaving program. We still have lots of streets out there to repave.
[1:44:31] And finally, I just want to thank Jean and Holly for their great leadership.
[1:44:35] Got a great team here.
[1:44:36] You do. Thank you. Thank you. Thanks.
[1:44:41] I would just say between.
[1:44:43] Jared, Jared and Megan, I feel like that these are the programs that people care the most about, like having good roads and going
[1:44:48] to good events and holiday. And so I think that you guys are really.
[1:44:53] Doing the things that people want done.
[1:44:55] By their city leaders.
[1:44:57] So we appreciate it.
[1:44:58] Lot.
[1:45:01] And we've been able to do.
[1:45:03] All that.
[1:45:04] Including supporting a new bond that was issued last year to accomplish a lot of these.
[1:45:10] Objectives like our building and Spring Lane.
[1:45:13] Without.
[1:45:14] A property tax increase.
[1:45:15] So we're.
[1:45:18] I can't tell you how excited I am about that.
[1:45:20] Great, I thought for sure.
[1:45:23] So things are going well.
[1:45:24] For a city of holiday.
[1:45:27] Is there anything else?
[1:45:31] And since Todd's not here, there couldn't possibly be a cold session.
[1:45:36] Gee, I wonder what else there is to do.
[1:45:38] Motion to adjourn.
[1:45:40] 2nd.
[1:45:41] All in favor.
[1:45:42] Aye.
