[1:31] all right so now we'll move into public
comments any person wishing to comment
[1:35] on any item not otherwise scheduled for
a public hearing on the agenda may
[1:39] address the city council at this point
by stepping to the microphone and giving
[1:42] their name
[1:48] hello i am allison
and we are members of the keystone club
[1:52] at boys and girls club in midville we
have been working on a community
[1:56] advocacy project focusing on the topic
of covid 19 vaccinations
[2:02] as we go into the third year of the
pandemic the biggest piece of advice
[2:06] that the public has been given is to
keep up to date in receiving their kovit
[2:10] 19 vaccines and booster shots in order
to protect themselves from getting sick
[2:16] as a county salt lake has done a great
job of administering cover 19 vaccines
[2:21] with a
74.7 percent of residents receiving at
[2:25] least one dose and
[2:29] 63.67.3 percent of residents being fully
vaccinated
[2:35] the cdc has made it clear that the most
effective way of avoiding kova 19 is not
[2:40] only to be fully vaccinated but it's but
it but to keep it update and receiving
[2:45] booster shots as well as different
variants of kovan 19 beginning to
[2:49] develop and become stronger the standard
two-dose vaccine begins to decrease in
[2:54] effectiveness and the booster shot is
needed to to fight against new strains
[2:59] of the virus statistically speaking only
34.3 percent of salt lake county
[3:05] residents have received the coven 19
booster shop this is a huge part of the
[3:09] salt lake county population vulnerable
at risk of contain contracting a coven
[3:14] 19 variant that can be determined to
their health
[3:24] studies have shown that code 19 has
disproportionately affected minority
[3:28] populations according to the cdc members
of minority and lower income households
[3:32] are more are more likely to be
hospitalized or die from cover 19. this
[3:36] is attributed to the many obstacles that
marginalized communities
[3:40] face when trying to gain access to
health care
[3:42] midwest city consists of 36 percent of
minority or ethnic
[3:48] uh minor uh
ethnic minorities with the median
[3:51] household of being sixty thousand these
statistics show that many of the
[3:55] residents of midwell city are at risk of
contracting the virus
[3:59] and are more at risk of hospitalization
or death from the virus
[4:02] for many people living in lower income
households with families or single
[4:06] parents getting to the doctor
or clinic can be hard to do based on
[4:11] timing or
location of the clinic
[4:13] for many people physical accessibility
can be difficult if the clinic is not
[4:17] within walking distance we think it's
important for there to be more vaccine
[4:21] clinics that are hosted in midfield
neighborhoods
[4:23] close to the marginalized residents that
live here
[4:27] it is especially important
to make these accessible to those
[4:32] who don't have cars or any other means
of transportation by locating them with
[4:36] locating them within walking distance
these clinics should be open later into
[4:41] the evening to accommodate
those who work more or work more than
[4:44] one job
even work long hours
[4:47] this would help make
this would help make it more possible
[4:51] for residents to receive the
vaccinations especially the booster in
[4:54] order to prevent further
hospitalizations and deaths in the
[4:58] midfield population
[5:05] the boys and girls club of midvale
previously hosted a vaccine clinic for
[5:08] covid and back to school vaccines on
friday april the 22nd it was very
[5:13] successful because we were able to get
many people in the surrounding community
[5:17] to attend including those who live in
the area around the club the location of
[5:21] our club makes us a great asset in
helping people
[5:24] receive this life-saving vaccines
because we are within walking distance
[5:28] of many homes apartments and even the
road homes
[5:31] we feel that another
clinic hosted by our club could be more
[5:35] successful if we can get access to more
resources to reach out to the
[5:39] surrounding community and schools and
help prevent the spread of kobe 19.
[5:44] we feel that with your help from you all
as our local city council our next
[5:49] vaccine clinic can further benefit
mid-rail city and further prevent the
[5:53] spread of cloven 19 in medveau
[5:59] thank you so much
before you wrap that the individuals who
[6:04] spoke can you just step up and state
your name into the microphone so we have
[6:07] it

[6:24] thank you all so much we really

[6:29] are there any other public comments if

[6:33] microphone and state your name
[6:37] okay
seeing none i'll move on to council
[6:40] reports
councilmember sperry
[6:43] i have nothing this evening mayor
councilmember brown i have nothing
[6:46] council member robinson i have nothing
to nightmare councilmember glover
[6:50] nothing to report councilmember ghetto
uh keep him with the theme no i just
[6:54] want to mention i two weeks ago i did go
to the
[6:57] st george utah league of cities and
towns conference um not much to report
[7:02] from there it's much of the same
many of the same workshops that we've
[7:06] all attended there's a housing crisis
there's a labor shortage housing prices
[7:11] are going up they're going to keep going
up
[7:14] uh the one good thing about going to
that conference was uh just being able
[7:19] to meet with some of the other council
members from neighboring cities and
[7:24] uh mayors and you know just kind of
creating some bit of camaraderie amongst
[7:31] the neighboring cities so i do recommend
going to that for that reason
[7:36] um i got to play cornhole with the salt
lake city council members so you can't
[7:41] always say that you had a chance to do
that um
[7:44] but anyway that's it for me tonight
mayor thank you
[7:48] thank you
uh for my report i've got a few
[7:53] quick things uh one just wanted to give
a thank you to our city engineer keith
[7:58] and also steve bush who on 80th south we
had a cut into the road
[8:03] due to construction there that we had a
number of residents complaints about and
[8:07] they helped us
get that filled in with dirt so thank
[8:10] you
also our harvest days committee is fully
[8:13] assembled the last time we met we
were just going uh had appointed the
[8:17] chair but last friday i believe they had
their first meeting and so that is up
[8:22] and running uh also uh councilmember
ghetto was there as well but attended
[8:28] the all caps uh arts conference which we
helped fund over the weekend it was
[8:32] great to see that come into fruition and
really excited about the arts festival
[8:37] in june
uh the
[8:40] most important thing i wanted to note
for tonight is with the overflow plan
[8:46] from house bill 440 we've talked about
this bill quite a bit uh at this point
[8:51] where we are at is every city is being
asked to come to the table to the uh
[8:55] conference of mayors uh with a potential
location for an overflow shelter again
[9:01] this is uh where an overflow shelter
needs to be in place by october 1st
[9:06] otherwise the state will step in and do
it
[9:09] and the conference of mayors came
together and said everybody will step
[9:12] forward with one location uh that site
selection from midville has not been
[9:17] chosen and is very much the beginning
process right now this was just decided
[9:21] thursday at the conference of mayors but
as that goes along we'll keep you all
[9:27] updated
uh that's all for me
[9:31] the next one is our city manager report
but seeing that i'm sure he'll be back
[9:36] up here
i can go on to department
[9:42] so i got stuff
[9:45] i don't know if you will be able to be
heard online
[9:57] just real quickly i wanted to let
everyone know that
[10:01] we had the first meeting of the harvest
days committee last week uh we'll have
[10:04] another one this week and we'll start
that regular schedule
[10:08] it seems like a really good group
and
[10:11] we're really excited i think they have
some ideas
[10:14] that will
be new and unique in the group and or
[10:19] sorry uh for the event
and um
[10:22] the other thing i guess is that uh i
just want to apologize again to heidi
[10:26] because i had mistakenly not given her
the information for last week's meeting
[10:29] but she's on it now and will be the
official liaison with the council
[10:33] uh
just want to let you know that that's
[10:36] off and running and that is the only
thing i want to report on this evening
[10:38] how many members matt
so there's um
[10:42] five members
uh and then the chair that you approved
[10:46] last time
um
[10:48] and uh and then heidi as the liaison in
addition to that we also have
[10:53] um we'll have at least two staff members
always attending those as well okay
[10:59] and we've had a few other uh
volunteers folks who would like to help
[11:04] out in other ways that i've connected
them with i just had
[11:07] an individual who's involved with
latinos in action at hillcrest uh
[11:10] reached out to me and connected him with
um
[11:14] molly who's our harvest day's chair and
hopefully those are folks are all being
[11:19] brought into the process
okay we'll move on to our department
[11:22] report uh public works department we'll
hear from glenn
[11:31] good evening mayor council
a few items to report on this evening
[11:37] i'll start with some of the not so fun
stuff and then end with
[11:40] some progress
park bathrooms
[11:43] opened up
the very end of april beginning of may
[11:48] vandalism continues to be a
a large issue
[11:52] upd and
park staff are strategizing on ways to
[11:56] mitigate that but it continues to be a
problem
[12:00] um jordan valley held their member
agency meeting last week
[12:04] two big takeaways from that i guess
attendees first keith ludwig city
[12:08] engineer myself curtis nielsen water
manager or utilities manager
[12:14] west van valkenberg water lead
attended in person i think matt and kyle
[12:19] attended online
no okay
[12:22] the two takeaways from that meeting
um much like this evening
[12:26] we had a uh
rate increase that was more than we were
[12:31] expecting
it will be plugged into the five-year
[12:34] model we think we can absorb it
but it will not be presented in the
[12:38] tentative budget tonight correct
[12:42] the other takeaway uh is drought
conditions
[12:46] we are in moderate drought conditions
uh does not look like there will be
[12:53] any major constraints this year
maybe similar to last year on some
[12:58] watering schedules but
the water supply looks
[13:01] manageable
uh
[13:05] keeping to the utilities theme
curtis nelson our utilities manager put
[13:09] in his notice
so we will be going through the hiring
[13:12] process there
now to the progress
[13:17] we did get our fleet and facility
portals online
[13:21] i believe you saw some some emails
are you
[13:26] is council included on the all city
mid email list
[13:32] i didn't look at that
there's
[13:35] yeah
so okay
[13:37] if you have not
i will shoot it out
[13:40] um if there's any requests for facility
maintenance needs or
[13:46] doesn't affect counselor mayor but if
there's a fleet
[13:48] uh need will you click on the facilities
[13:53] no so this portal has been provided to
all city employees upd the arts council
[14:00] where you can just click put in a uh
when you go to find a request
[14:05] the magnifying glass to the left
[14:09] so these these are the ones that have
already been entered
[14:12] it went live
yesterday
[14:15] appreciate kate
she was our uh
[14:19] first submittal and helped us work
through a few issues uh but i think this
[14:23] is going to be really good in keeping
communication
[14:27] and follow-up going
um and we're excited to get it going a
[14:32] few kinks we're going to work this out
for a few months internally
[14:35] and hopefully we can get a citizens
portal out there
[14:39] for the citizens to use too but we want
to make sure it's all working internal
[14:42] first
so that is my report this evening
[14:46] are there any questions
[14:50] thank you thanks
[14:53] all right we'll move to our public
hearing
[14:56] public hearing uh we've just got a
double checking one item here on the
[15:01] public hearing
uh public hearing to receive public
[15:05] comments on the midvale city fiscal year
2023 tentative budget beginning july 1st
[15:09] 2022 and ending ending june 30th 2023 is
there a motion to open the public
[15:15] hearing mayor i move that we move into a
public hearing second okay there's
[15:19] motion in a second
uh any discussion
[15:23] all in favor
yes
[15:26] okay that passes and we are in a public
hearing go ahead mariah
[15:31] actually um before mariah starts um
one thing i just
[15:35] wanted to clarify
is that while
[15:39] the bulk of the work is done by mariah
and christian and kyle in getting this
[15:45] document prepared getting the data
putting it into a form that
[15:50] is
is able to communicate the status of our
[15:53] budget and what our projections are for
next year
[15:56] in the end the city manager is the
budget officer for the city
[16:00] and so as we go through and discuss
different items within the tentative
[16:05] budget
some of those are going to be
[16:08] uh at my direction so i'll jump in at
different times to sort of explain what
[16:12] the reasoning is
if uh when you receive the tenant of
[16:15] budget you read the um the amazing pros
that were put together for the budget
[16:20] message
you'll see among other things that
[16:25] sort of our
my goal as we were looking at the budget
[16:28] was to look at first maintaining basic
services
[16:32] then making sure that we were
moving forward with policies that would
[16:36] ensure staff retention
um then it was looking at
[16:41] long-term capital projects and then
finally dealing with the price increases
[16:44] that we have
this year the inflation
[16:47] as we are all aware is is higher than
it's been in 40 years and that has taken
[16:52] a toll on our budget so as we go through
and talk about not just what is the
[16:56] status of our budget but what are some
of the recommended changes that we have
[17:00] those are some of the guiding
concepts that we use in putting those
[17:03] together
um anyways i just i appreciate the work
[17:06] that the finance group
has done in order to put this together
[17:10] and i'll jump back in as we get into
some of those more
[17:15] philosophy driven decisions
matt was worried about stepping on my
[17:19] toes and i said we're a team we got this
together
[17:22] um so just an overview of what the
tentative budget is and this is true now
[17:28] even more
because of the workshop is that this is
[17:30] a draft of our estimated revenues and
expenditures and i that is as of last
[17:36] tuesday because we had to have this
document out seven days before the
[17:38] public hearing and so that was this is
the information we had up into that
[17:42] point
um attempted a budget is prevent
[17:45] presented for each of the city's funds
you'll also see for the rda and the nba
[17:48] separately in those meetings tonight and
then within each of those funds
[17:52] all the departments fall
um and then this has like that said was
[17:57] prepared by the finance department
with the city manager
[18:01] closely
working with us and is officially been
[18:05] presented by the city's budget officer
even though i'm going to be talking
[18:08] about it it's really coming from him
and then a final budget will be proposed
[18:13] and adopted at a future meeting
so that will change whether it's in june
[18:17] or if there's a property tax increase
then that would be in august
[18:21] so
here we go this in the general fund the
[18:25] total revenues that we are projecting is
twenty three million eight hundred and
[18:29] fifty six thousand two hundred and forty
five dollars this is a ten point nine
[18:32] percent increase from our amended fiscal
year twenty two budget we get an until
[18:37] the nitty gritty of that in a little bit
but
[18:40] that's proposed new ongoing funds of 2
million 268 thousand dollars
[18:45] 313
i'm gonna round and not say all those
[18:49] numbers
um okay so that that does include the
[18:53] property tax increase we're proposing
which i will talk more about in a future
[18:57] slide the available one-time funds which
is the amount of
[19:01] uh fund balance that is over our
fund balance that we're trying to keep
[19:06] in reserve which is 18 is 1.6 million
dollars
[19:10] total expenditures is uh 25.4 million
which is an 11 increase from the amended
[19:16] fiscal year 22 budget that our ongoing
expenditures we've matched to our new
[19:20] ongoing funds and then our proposed
one-time experiences expenditures are
[19:25] about fifty thousand dollars less than
the one-time funds
[19:28] uh so here's a breakdown
of the different types of uh budgeted
[19:33] revenue seventy percent taxes four
percent license and permits fourteen
[19:37] percent intergovernmental nine percent
charges for services
[19:41] four percent fines and fortuners and
then a very tiny tiny miscellaneous
[19:45] section there um that's 16.6 million in
taxes and 10.7 in sales tax and then um
[19:53] the sales tax is gen is 64 sales not
sales tax all of the taxes 64 sales tax
[20:00] 20
property tax and so on
[20:04] um okay so for the taxes we're proposing
a 10.5 overall increase with property
[20:11] taxes increasing 10.7 percent and sales
tax increasing 12
[20:17] so you guys heard kyle talk about this
in the workshop we originally
[20:21] projected 10 to be uh on our sales tax
increase to be conservative and then
[20:26] have gone back for our financial
policies and increased that to 12
[20:30] looking at our actuals that we think
that that is still reasonable
[20:34] so our sales tax have a 1.1 million
dollar increase and property taxes 284
[20:40] thousand dollars
[20:43] we're not proposing any changes in
our permit and plan fees that's because
[20:48] community development is undergoing a
fee study right now and so we'll wait
[20:50] until that's completed to
address those fees
[20:54] and then we have a 22 increase in our
intergovernmental revenues which is
[20:58] because of hb 440 we're getting an
additional 445 thousand dollars for that
[21:04] um
okay this is our slide on property tax
[21:08] increases so just for
general growth we are originally uh
[21:12] proposing a 1.5 increase in our our
property taxes
[21:16] um and then to meet our ongoing costs we
were proposing a 9.1 percent
[21:22] increase in our property taxes so that
would take us to
[21:25] 2 million 2.9 million from the 2.7
approximately that we were proposing
[21:30] this is a 245
000
[21:33] increase which is 9.1 it's approximately
17 for the average homeowner per year in
[21:38] midvale um and then to move forward with
this you would instead of adopting the
[21:43] certified tax rate in june you would
propose a tax rate increase which would
[21:47] then put us into the truth and taxation
process
[21:53] go ahead we're a team guys see you
sorry so um
[22:00] as we had spoken uh uh on in one-on-ones
about um the potential property tax
[22:06] increase and how that um came to be
um
[22:11] we i kept several things in mind as we
were putting together this projection
[22:14] and i mentioned it at the beginning but
just to sort of reiterate um we were
[22:18] really trying to say how do we keep
basic services levels where they're at
[22:22] um
then how do we retain staff
[22:26] then how do we address long-term capital
projects which is really more than
[22:30] one-time money and then how do we deal
with
[22:33] inflation and so as we looked at putting
together the budget that got us to the
[22:38] proposed property tax increase
if you look at the ongoing expenses on
[22:42] the left side of the screen there
the first one is the upd assessment
[22:46] as we're now aware
after the workshop this number is going
[22:50] to
increase and we will be coming back to
[22:53] you with a plan on how we're going to
address that but for this for the
[22:56] purposes of this as i talk about where
we're at for this budget again i'm just
[23:00] going to be talking about sort of the
numbers we know for certain that we're
[23:03] in the tentative budget and we'll be
making some tweaks so
[23:06] the upd assessment whatever we
essentially that vote is for that budget
[23:11] is what it's going to
buy the upd board is what we're going to
[23:15] end up paying so that ends up becoming
sort of a mandate
[23:18] um then we looked at fleet replacement
as
[23:23] something that we were trying to
address here by moving all of the fleet
[23:28] replacement contribution into ongoing
funds
[23:31] because that's just good budgetary
practice
[23:34] as you recall when covet hit we moved
some of that into one-time funds as part
[23:39] of a way of shoring up the budget
but
[23:42] we were trying this year to move that
back into ongoing so that it becomes
[23:46] sort of fulfilling the best practices as
far as budget budgeting goes
[23:50] then we get into sort of the
actual budgetary
[23:55] service expansion items which is the
employee merit market and cola increases
[24:00] which is 674 thousand dollars again this
is a number um
[24:04] as we look at what the other
uh cities are doing in the valley there
[24:09] is a range ranging from things uh
proposals that are close to what we're
[24:13] proposing which is the eight percent
cola one percent merit
[24:17] down to
something maybe more around a five
[24:20] percent range
the reason we decided uh to propose
[24:24] going with the eight percent uh cola one
percent merit as we discussed at the
[24:28] budget retreat has to do with trying to
help staff stay up with
[24:32] the inflationary
increases that we're experiencing and
[24:36] trying to make sure that we don't have
another year
[24:39] of
losing a third of our staff
[24:42] because money is a primary one of the
primary drivers that caused a lot of our
[24:45] turnover last year and so we're hoping
that if we're able to keep up with the
[24:49] market
we'll be able to have better staff
[24:52] retention this year which will allow us
to again sort of maintain our basic
[24:55] services if we have that turnover like
we did last year that does cut into our
[24:59] ability to provide those basic services
then in addition to that uh the
[25:03] full-time prosecutor as we discussed at
the budget retreat as well has to do
[25:07] with um
we've made some changes in the
[25:10] organization regarding a lot of the
process that we go through both in
[25:14] procurement
just and our contract process this has
[25:17] put a lot of pressure on the legal
department and in order to help with
[25:21] our efficiency and
maintaining a manageable load for our
[25:25] attorneys
we're looking at bringing in that
[25:28] full-time prosecutor and then the final
sort of expansion item is the full-time
[25:33] parks technician again we're budgeting
for half a year but this has to do with
[25:37] the fact that we'll have two parks
coming on in the next budget year in the
[25:40] next fiscal year and um that's again a
service expansion and we want to make
[25:44] sure that we have the staff
available so that there isn't a decline
[25:48] in the service level at the other parks
so
[25:51] just in quick recap of what i was saying
there is that as we look at it we have a
[25:55] mandate in the updated assessment we
have a budgetary decision
[26:00] with regards to how we handle the fleet
replacement and then the other three
[26:04] items are really about
service expansion now there are a few
[26:07] other items in the budget that we would
have the ability to tweak but it's
[26:12] around fourteen thousand dollars of the
remaining general fund increases would
[26:17] be considered budget uh service
expansion the rest of them fall into
[26:21] sort of mandate categories or things
that we can't change
[26:24] the reason i'm bringing all this up is
that as we look at that property tax
[26:27] increase
and we look at what we have available to
[26:30] make changes on our options are
relatively limited and would have a
[26:34] significant impact
[26:37] we'll we'll continue on with with the
presentation but we just wanted to make
[26:40] sure that it was clear and then one
other thing that i said i was going to
[26:44] say uh as well that i forgot to mention
is that if we were to look at this
[26:48] from the perspective of um
you know where do we have the most
[26:52] flexibility in addressing the increase
in adjusting what we proposed here is
[26:57] that would probably start with the fleet
replacement contribution
[27:00] um
however
[27:02] the last thing on that before i turn it
back to the to the to the pro on the
[27:05] budget is uh
clearly
[27:08] what happened uh the new information we
got in the workshop is going to have a
[27:11] significant impact on this
yeah before that the fleet replacement
[27:15] was like a really like good thing to
have and now it just it doesn't mean
[27:18] quite as much
though the things that we fund one time
[27:22] are we we fund grants and harvest days
with one time money and then our our
[27:26] capital project funding which uh we can
talk about more a little bit later
[27:31] um
here are a breakdown of the expenditures
[27:35] by in the general fund by department and
then type um so in both sections uh upd
[27:42] is clearly the bulk they are
in public safety on the left and our
[27:47] contracted services on the right
and then
[27:52] that number is outdated because last
year they were 44 and this year they
[27:56] were set to be 45.5 but that is not an
outdated number
[28:01] um
the okay moving into the debt service
[28:05] fund this is a new fund kyle created
last year makes things easier any debt
[28:09] that was previously accounted for in the
general fund
[28:12] is now in our debt service fund so we
have our 2017 sales tax bonds
[28:17] the lease payment to the mba from the
city and then the chd parking structure
[28:21] loan all come out of there
okay here's the capital projects fund
[28:25] again so we've discussed this you guys a
few times the the projects on the right
[28:30] hand side of the screen the sales tax
and the hb 244 money they come into the
[28:35] general fund but they are specifically
earmarked for those um
[28:39] projects and so they're not included
when we discuss our one-time money and
[28:43] the funds that we can
that we can use for city projects and
[28:48] then the list is the one i think you've
seen a few times we have 1.14 million
[28:53] dollars of one-time money for city
building improvements our mural program
[28:57] facility maintenance swimming pool seed
money
[29:00] the public works building renovation
study park improvements cemetery
[29:05] improvements main street utility
upgrades for union corridor community
[29:09] gardens and holiday lights
[29:13] okay in the water fund i told kyle as i
was looking at his presentation last
[29:18] year i'm much
i'm much happier giving this
[29:21] presentation for the water fund than
what you guys had to deal with last year
[29:23] because they have completed the
five-year comprehensive financial
[29:26] sustainability plan and uh made adjust
and they budgeted with that in mind so
[29:32] they completed that with last fiscally
uh
[29:35] with adjustments for fiscal year 21 and
22 actuals um and other things to note
[29:41] is that they this budget is prepared
assuming that the water fund and the
[29:44] super fund will bond this fiscal year to
cover capital expenditures included in
[29:49] the cfsp
and then the water budget also includes
[29:52] about 2 million in arpa funds
so here's a look at the revenues there's
[29:57] an 81 increase that's because of the
bonds and the arpa funds in the revenues
[30:03] other things to note there's a 15
percent increase in our user charges uh
[30:07] consumption consumption is increasing by
22 all of this is built into the
[30:12] uh financial sustainability plan that
you guys have seen and approved so it
[30:16] just kind of goes in line with that
um for the largest expenses in the water
[30:20] fund
there's that similar eight percent cola
[30:24] one percent merit in the water fund
that's seventy thousand dollars um the
[30:28] wholesale water contract is increasing
by 120 000.
[30:32] is that the one that's changing that's
that will be increased um
[30:36] is it and i think we have eight percent
and it's coming at 11 and a half
[30:43] okay
um
[30:45] and then other inflationary operate
increases throughout the
[30:49] fund for 35 000 uh
and then the water master plan projects
[30:53] that are bonded for 5.3 million and the
bond issuance costs which are 106 000
[31:00] similarly the sewer budget was
prepared per the five-year cfsp
[31:05] and um is also assumed that it will bond
for uh capital expenditures and then
[31:10] also to help fund the capital projects
for uh south valley
[31:15] um so 39 increase similarly because of
the bonds um and then a 10 increase in
[31:21] user charges here
[31:25] for the largest expenses this all looks
going to look very similar and a lot of
[31:29] these enterprise funds uh there's the
merit and cola increases um an increase
[31:35] to south valleys operating and capital
inflationary operating increases
[31:39] throughout the department um the
purchase of a trash pump and tv
[31:43] transporter and then bought bondage
issuance costs of 30 000 in the sewer
[31:48] fund
um for the stormwater fund uh
[31:52] there
that says water master plan there's the
[31:56] stormwater master plan and raid study
that was funded in fiscal year 2021
[32:01] we're still waiting on some gis data so
that hasn't begun yet and will likely
[32:05] begin in fiscal year 23 so because of
that
[32:09] we're not doing any rate increases or
anything like that in the stormwater
[32:12] fund and just are putting a three
percent general growth increase into our
[32:15] charges for services for the revenues
for the stormwater expenses
[32:21] here we go again with the
merit and cola increases
[32:25] for this fund there is a some
uh additional requests for education and
[32:30] certification for
our staff in this fund
[32:35] and then there are fleet charges of 35
000 actually the stormwater didn't
[32:39] couldn't fund couldn't fully absorb the
fleet charges that were
[32:44] meant to be
assigned to it this year so that those
[32:47] have been cut down
in the street lighting fund
[32:52] no rate increase is recommended
and a growth three percent increase for
[32:57] charges for services
and then the largest expenses are uh the
[33:02] maritime cola increases which is one
thousand dollars so that's not very
[33:06] large that's uh like i said not very big
changes in this and then there is an
[33:09] increase for street light repair of ten
thousand dollars um i was going to also
[33:14] note that the
the payments for the street light
[33:17] upgrade
which is about 211 000
[33:21] will conclude in 2024 and so we'll be
revisiting with you guys uh in the
[33:26] future about what to do with that money
or if we're cutting rates or that sort
[33:30] of thing
in the sanitation fund
[33:34] we are recommending an increase of 3.5
uh the ace contract and tipping fees
[33:40] were 7.1 percent increase so that rate
increase does not cover
[33:44] um
our contract increases and so we'll need
[33:48] to use fund balance to cover that this
year and then we're
[33:51] including a 4.4.6
growth increase in charges for services
[33:56] and this budget we also have this fund
our merit and cola increases as well as
[33:59] in this budget is our glass and dumpster
mural and leaf program
[34:06] for the fleet
fund uh as matt noted the fleet
[34:10] replacement charges that come from the
departments into this fund are ongoing
[34:15] and they've actually they decreased 4.7
percent overall this year from a
[34:19] previous year
we also have
[34:22] mayor and cola
increases in this fund uh inflationary
[34:26] operating increases
um our gas and things are purchased out
[34:30] of this fund
and then uh we're having an increase in
[34:35] in vehicle insurance and then uh
replacements and uh of an additional
[34:41] vehicle purchases and equipment is a
budgeted for 571 thousand so that's kind
[34:45] of if we didn't have this fund and we
needed to replace vehicles that we would
[34:49] have to come up with that 571 thousand
dollars but because we pay into this
[34:53] year to year little by little one then
we can cover that and not have to come
[34:57] up with that money
in the it fund all department charges
[35:03] decreased uh they decreased about 29 000
in revenue for the it fund
[35:07] um and then we are transferring from the
general fund two hundred thousand
[35:11] dollars as this is a it's a part of the
capital conversations that we've had but
[35:16] it's for the software
initiative it's a really long title kyle
[35:21] says it flawlessly but a software
initiative program that we've done
[35:26] the largest expenses in the it fund this
year is we've got server and switch
[35:29] replacements uh on the docket as well as
because uh gis moved from engineering to
[35:36] i.t and we're buoying them up so that we
can do the stormwater uh stuff then we
[35:42] are getting them some additional
equipment and software
[35:45] questions
[35:48] i appreciate you putting this together i
was trying to find like a relevant
[35:53] number
to
[35:56] to sort of explain how much money we
don't necessarily have to work with or
[35:59] play with you know
and uh musk buying
[36:03] twitter is a number everyone's sort of
hurt you know 44 billion right so if he
[36:08] were to donate all that money to midvale
he could fund our city for 1800 years
[36:13] right which is a crazy thing to think
about right and that's the difference
[36:17] between sort of millions and billions so
i appreciate you know the work to try to
[36:21] make everything work
um i just hope all the entities
[36:25] recognize you know that that's there's a
serious constraint you know on on money
[36:30] and we don't have elon musk's money to
make that work
[36:34] but i appreciate it thank you
[36:38] could you um or maybe matt you mentioned
um
[36:44] reducing our
cola is that what you
[36:48] said when you interjected briefly
for uh
[36:52] city staff employees
uh
[36:55] cola and meri i
no so um what i had said is if you could
[37:00] go back to that slide absolutely
um is that as we look at the general
[37:05] fund and because the budgetary issues
that we're facing as far as the increase
[37:10] that we're seeing from upd is ongoing
money we want to use try to find a way
[37:16] to use ongoing money to address that now
that uh the one way of doing that is
[37:21] creating ongoing money by doing a
property tax increase which is what
[37:25] we're recommending
um and then uh beyond that would be to
[37:29] reduce
some other amount of ongoing funding
[37:34] um
when again this is before the workshop
[37:37] today we were just saying that um
the because the upd assessment is a
[37:42] mandate
the next one item that we would
[37:45] recommend
potentially
[37:48] reducing would be the fleet replacement
contribution but that gets us into the
[37:52] budgetary issue of using
[37:56] one-time money for ongoing
and then if we looked at just straight
[38:01] ongoing
funding that's the merit full-time
[38:04] prosecutor and full-time parks
technician but really what
[38:08] again based off of
before tonight what we're saying is we
[38:12] believe that these three things are
necessary in order for us to meet
[38:17] the needs of the community
and are not recommending that they that
[38:21] these would be cut they can they're
within your purview to cut but we're not
[38:25] recommending that we would do that
because we believe it would impact the
[38:28] services provided to the community so
you just mentioned that as a
[38:33] possibility okay it caught my ear just
because as i mentioned to you in the
[38:37] past you know i consider every city
employee just as important as our police
[38:43] staff as well you know we all provide a
service so i wouldn't want to cut any
[38:47] amount of money from that in order to
in order to meet that new upd assessment
[38:53] so hopefully we can stick to that and
not cut from the employee mayor i mean
[38:58] we've seen as many if not more of our
city staff
[39:03] uh turn over as we have you know police
officers turn over so they're equally as
[39:09] important to me and i just hope that we
can keep that money in the budget for
[39:13] police and for city staff
i guess the question i had
[39:19] was just as being able to see what kind
of cuts
[39:22] if we cut one percent
of the marine cola what
[39:29] what how much money would we actually
raise uh 73 500 and 20 70 3 523
[39:37] for each percent yes okay and just a
quick note i wouldn't recommend deleting
[39:42] the fleet replacement contribution we
would just move it to one time
[39:46] uh and then might need to adjust our
capital project funding that way but
[39:51] yeah i would just recommend moving it to
one time from ongoing it's just nice to
[39:56] be able to know
i'm not saying we do it
[39:59] it's nice to be able to look at it and
say if we did this this is how much we
[40:02] would raise
really quickly i saw a hand up back here
[40:08] as soon as the the council is done
discussing we'll open it up for public
[40:12] comment where somebody can step up
perfect yep
[40:17] what frustrates me is our funding source
for upd in the city is the same right it
[40:21] comes from taxes
right they're technically
[40:26] they should be just considered mid-vale
employees right and so um they should
[40:31] feel the same sort of
rewards and pains that midvale city
[40:34] employees have when dealing with raises
or cuts because
[40:39] it's kind of hard for me to hear um you
know hey we need these races to keep
[40:43] things going have someone on city staff
work on the budget that maybe doesn't
[40:47] get that same sort of raise um
i think it's an inappropriate thing to
[40:52] do
right because it's all coming from the
[40:54] same
the same area
[40:57] right so
um you know if there is a tax raise i
[41:00] i'd rather just have it spread evenly
between all of the what i would consider
[41:05] mid-vale employees and not
this idea that um
[41:09] you know one entity gets it more than
others i think that would if i worked
[41:13] for midvale full-time i would be very
offended
[41:16] and
feel like a second-class unit and so
[41:20] i'm guessing there probably is people
that do and they don't want to say that
[41:23] which is fine i can say it
um
[41:27] and so it's just something we should
keep in mind and i hopefully everyone
[41:30] else
you know i would like to people that ask
[41:33] for huge budget increases to stay for
budget meetings right opposed to leave i
[41:37] think that's also inappropriate
um because we're talking about this and
[41:42] they're part of it and they're the
biggest ask
[41:44] so um
you know it's a mandate which i i don't
[41:48] love because we don't really get to make
a choice but
[41:51] um there's just
a professional way to handle things and
[41:54] i i wish they were here to to continue
this discussion
[42:02] any other comments from the council
[42:06] okay thank you mariah
all right now we'll now open this public
[42:12] hearing
to the public if there's anybody in the
[42:15] audience who would like to address the
council you can just step forward to the
[42:18] microphone and state your name
[42:26] my question is about the budget
i saw that there was over a million
[42:30] dollars going to the upd and where
necessarily are these
[42:34] funds going to
i heard that there was
[42:38] a service budget
talk but are these going to
[42:44] directly the officers or
i just want to know where they're going
[42:49] sure i think what is the percentage it's
80 percent to compensation 85.
[42:55] so
that's the
[43:03] sorry could you give your name yo tc
thank you
[43:07] so we um right now the current budget
we've got about
[43:10] we'll call it 10 million dollars that
goes towards upd
[43:14] that covers sort of essentially two
different things one of them being our
[43:17] precinct here in midvale and um
the majority of the the funds go towards
[43:24] that but then we also have what are
called shared services where all of the
[43:28] member communities in
upd are able to share in those services
[43:32] so that's going to be swot the mental
health unit
[43:36] violent crimes unit
and others
[43:40] and um
and so we all pay a share of that
[43:45] and uh so this million dollar increase
that's being proposed as part of this
[43:49] budget is saying we'll go from 10
million dollars to the 11 million
[43:53] dollars and then those funds
will the increase will mainly go towards
[43:58] those shared services
um and there is some additional increase
[44:02] that is going to the precinct
and are these services equally divided
[44:06] or is there like a particular
[44:10] focus
in the shared services or is it just
[44:14] equal
they're not equally divided amongst the
[44:18] services and the way that the
funding is
[44:22] the way that they determine what the
fees are for each community is based off
[44:25] of a formula that has to do with the
number of cases population and value
[44:32] with unified police department there are
a number of cities that contract with
[44:36] them midville does not have a midvale
city police department so we contract
[44:40] with unified police department along
with
[44:43] a number of other cities communities
and so as matt was saying with that
[44:47] formula so our share of it is about 18
so any as they come up with their budget
[44:53] they
hand us
[44:55] a bill for 18 of that total cost
and that is what
[45:00] what they've given us this year is about
a million more than what we've been
[45:03] budgeting
okay that's all thank you
[45:08] thank you for the question
are there any other
[45:12] public comments on this item
[45:16] okay mayor i move that we close the
public hearing
[45:20] second
okay there's a motion in the second any
[45:23] discussion
all those in favor
[45:27] yes
any against
[45:30] i just wanted to thank the individual
for coming up and speaking the budget
[45:34] itself is complex the whole
situation is even hard for us up here to
[45:39] sort of understand
uh i think it's super cool that you you
[45:42] know i think if i were in your shoes i
would just be playing on my phone not
[45:45] paying attention so i think it's great
that you came up to ask questions and
[45:49] we're engaging i think you know i i love

[49:18] have a third party consultant do that
work for us
[49:22] we do this in order to replace any
damaged and broken curb gutter sidewalk
[49:27] and also to work on updating sidewalk
ramps
[49:31] we typically target areas where we're
going to do an asphalt
[49:34] mill and overlay
because as part of that that work we're
[49:38] required to
update any sidewalk cram so we go in an
[49:42] area that we're going to melanoblade and
try to take care of that
[49:47] so this year we
our contract
[49:52] expired so we put out for a new
multi-year contract
[49:56] we received six proposals
[50:00] all of them
fairly competent
[50:04] well i would say all of them very
competent contractors
[50:09] there was an evaluation committee put
together by our procurement officer
[50:13] consisting of myself
steve bush my engineering manager
[50:17] susan stangle the procurement officer
and tom brown who was with galloway
[50:24] engineering and who helped us put this
project together and came up with specs
[50:28] and plans
[50:31] the evaluation committee independently
looked at each of the proposals that
[50:35] were submitted
without any dollar information
[50:40] we evaluated the approach
the experience of the company and their
[50:45] personnel and then
demonstrated track record of similar
[50:49] projects
after that evaluation was done
[50:53] susan combined all those scores and then
added in the
[50:58] the bid prices and came up with the
final scoring for each of the six
[51:02] i've included in the packet bid
abstract showing all the proposer all
[51:08] the bids their unit prices and then
their total bid
[51:12] along with the evaluation evaluation
sheet
[51:16] so that you can see how each one of the
[51:20] bidders came out
after that evaluation quicksilver was
[51:24] selected as
the contractor
[51:29] we've worked with quicksilver concrete
before in fact for the last several
[51:32] years they've been doing this project
for us
[51:35] documents and and
agreements and everything have been
[51:40] vetted and
reviewed by our legal department along
[51:44] with our procurement officer
so we felt fairly confident
[51:49] that what we did was above board and
perfectly legal
[51:55] in a couple weeks i will have a
resolution
[51:58] for your consideration and action
on having
[52:02] the mayor signed an agreement with
quicksilver concrete for
[52:06] the next five years of this project
any questions i can help with
[52:14] okay thank you very much
[52:23] okay
all right moving on to our second
[52:26] discussion item discussion of effective
date of newly adopted district map
[52:31] lisa our city attorney
[52:36] thank you all for coming
[52:40] really exciting stuff
so on april 19th uh you all passed a new
[52:46] map indicating district boundaries uh
based on the
[52:50] uh
consent
[52:53] the census
uh
[52:55] that came out
after that there was some question as to
[52:59] its effective date
and
[53:02] you asked us
to ensure that the residents understand
[53:09] who their representative is currently
and to establish
[53:13] how the 2023 elections
would occur
[53:18] you asked us to
to
[53:20] bring it before you to discuss
when the new district map would be
[53:26] effective so we did some checking and
found that no one knows
[53:33] when these are supposed to be effective
um
[53:37] i i spoke with the representative from
the county clerk's office and their
[53:42] election division and they gave us some
they gave me some pretty clear guidance
[53:47] mayor
stevenson spoke to the deputy
[53:54] county clerk
and
[53:56] he received similar information as i did
so we have that guidance to pass along
[54:03] to you
however
[54:08] it appears that you may talk to someone
different and get a different
[54:11] response uh rory sent out an email to
other cities who just passed their new
[54:18] district map and um
received different information than the
[54:22] guidance we received
so the guidance we received is that
[54:27] the district map
[54:30] would take effect the january the
swearing-in of the new district newly
[54:35] elected
council member
[54:39] who ran under the new district map so
it'd be january 2nd of 2024 when that
[54:45] person is sworn in that's when the
new district map would take effect so
[54:50] that would be january of 2024 since we
don't have a municipal election until
[54:54] 2023
in addition to that
[54:58] the
person
[55:02] who
the person who runs in 2023 for
[55:07] districts one two and three
would
[55:10] be
under the new district map
[55:14] residency requirements and um
[55:19] uh that they would be they would be
there they would be uh
[55:24] under the constituents of the new
district map so that's they would uh
[55:29] seek election from the new district
map
[55:33] residents
additionally if they can if a council
[55:37] member who is
uh running who is in in currently
[55:42] uh
on the council for districts one two and
[55:47] would be considered the incumbent that
is the the direction i was given from
[55:51] the county clerk
uh however rory uh
[55:56] sent out the email and murray and i
think mill creek yes both
[56:01] did new district maps and theirs were
effective
[56:05] the date they essentially the date they
they
[56:08] adopted them so
i am
[56:11] here to let you discuss
and ask questions if you have any as far
[56:16] as how what you would like it it there
is no
[56:19] um
direction or statute
[56:22] that requires us
to have an effective date for the map
[56:27] or gives us any idea what that should be
so it is your decision
[56:32] what you would like to do
[56:35] can i just add really quickly in my
conversations with the deputy clerk
[56:39] there was
i was told they would look into it
[56:43] further to make sure that they didn't
miss anything
[56:46] there was another language there that
gives better direction but as lisa said
[56:50] currently it's
up in the air for everyone
[56:55] having said that i've gone through this
before
[56:58] and the question never came up
yeah
[57:03] yeah right it just like we just floated
along and what the election came the new
[57:08] map
took
[57:10] over
right
[57:14] so
i don't know the the interesting thing
[57:16] about that we looked into when this was
done it was it was passed in 2013.
[57:22] uh
that's when you the council adopted a
[57:26] new district map
which
[57:30] would have been a municipal election
so
[57:33] so yeah so i think it was done right
before the election and it just took
[57:38] effect
but i don't i don't know yeah it's like
[57:42] again i don't know i just know the
question i've been through this and the
[57:45] question absolutely never came up
it just seems logical that it should be
[57:52] if not effective immediately it should
be i don't even know why you have to
[57:56] wait until the next
year you know the next calendar year or
[58:01] the next election you know we passed
a map and that you know just like any
[58:06] other ordinance that we pass it's
effective when we vote in a majority and
[58:11] the mayor signs that ordinance
so i don't i don't understand why
[58:17] especially the 2024 date that just does
not make sense to me whatsoever well i
[58:23] and i can explain you know the how it
was
[58:26] explained to me is that
in in the state election
[58:32] the state map doesn't take effect until
january of 2023
[58:38] and
but the the people who are running for
[58:41] the new districts are running under the
new map but it doesn't take effect until
[58:46] the new
person is who is elected for that
[58:49] district takes office
the the um public policy
[58:54] uh reason that we thought that it made
sense to take effect in january 2024
[59:00] because it allows the the longest period
of time for
[59:04] the council member to
rem to be
[59:08] in office that
for the constituents who elected them
[59:13] i mean the map's only purpose is for
voting right like i don't get special
[59:16] privilege voting or anything correct
right so to it only makes sense for
[59:20] during a voting cycle right like we
could pass it today it doesn't do
[59:23] anything right there's no action from it
so the only logical thing would be when
[59:28] voting would come up even for those
you know for those people right so
[59:32] i i mean it doesn't matter we can do
either one but to say
[59:35] only one of them is logical the other
one doesn't do anything right it's just
[59:40] a fluffy
uh we can say our maps changed
[59:43] you know boundaries but
you know the end of the day i take
[59:47] a call two or three calls a day from
district five right and i don't push
[59:52] them off because they're my friends
um
[59:55] and and so like like
you know i think for the sake of
[1:00:02] you know we do have a municipal election
in 2023
[1:00:05] and
my biggest concern is and i spoke to um
[1:00:10] county clerk swenson about this directly
um you know when i
[1:00:16] i got a voter registration card in the
mail once and i don't know if everyone
[1:00:19] else did that maybe but you know when
the state passed their maps they sent
[1:00:25] out new voter registration cards because
a lot of people you know their senators
[1:00:29] or house district changed
under city council for me and for others
[1:00:34] it says pending because our maps are not
settled
[1:00:39] sherry swenson indicated that at the
whenever we
[1:00:44] submit our maps to them they're going to
send people voter registration cards
[1:00:48] that are going to match
what we passed so i think it just
[1:00:53] to prolong it to 2024 just creates too
much confusion in my mind and especially
[1:00:58] since we have a municipal election next
year you know there's going to be a
[1:01:02] significant population that is in
district 5 who will switch to district 2
[1:01:08] therefore they would be eligible to run
for election in 2023
[1:01:13] there's also a tiny sliver of population
in
[1:01:17] district 4 that would be
change over to district 3 which then
[1:01:22] also would be eligible to run
for election so
[1:01:26] i think we should make it effective
if you want to wait until january
[1:01:30] whatever 2023 that makes the most sense
so that people
[1:01:34] are running
in the district that we you know they
[1:01:38] have been told that they live in
so
[1:01:42] okay
because i wouldn't want to create the
[1:01:44] confusion for someone who thinks
that these because they live in district
[1:01:49] 5 until 2024 if that's the way we went
you know they might not think that they
[1:01:54] can run for
election in 2023 even though they would
[1:01:59] be eligible because they would be in
district 2.
[1:02:03] right and that was part of the reason of
of bringing this forward and and um
[1:02:09] getting something definitive so that
people understood either way whatever
[1:02:13] but it sounds like they're going to get
new registration cards no matter what we
[1:02:17] do
if we say 23 or 24
[1:02:21] we're still going to get registration
cards that say
[1:02:24] you know the part of my district 5 that
becomes district 2 is going to get a
[1:02:28] cart that says they're in district 2.
yes
[1:02:31] and and as as councilman brown those are
used when they vote
[1:02:36] and so yeah i i totally
whatever the council wants to do is it's
[1:02:41] because there's no law telling us
what we have to do so it's up to you
[1:02:45] guys
but what we do have to do is write up
[1:02:48] the resolution that would come the next
time and so
[1:02:51] um
i've
[1:02:54] to the extent that we can get a
guidance from the
[1:02:57] full members that are sort of pointing
in the direction of the group that would
[1:03:00] be helpful in being able to prepare that
yes
[1:03:04] i would say 2023 then january of 2023 is
that one the counties
[1:03:10] take back
yes
[1:03:14] yes because they have elections this
year
[1:03:19] does that sound is that okay if we have
this map going to effect january of 2023
[1:03:26] can i ask a question
it's still okay for us to send the map
[1:03:30] to the county clerk and they are still
going to be sending out the cards
[1:03:34] correct
okay so make sure
[1:03:39] yes thank you
[1:03:44] councilmember sperry it really looks
like i know
[1:03:47] i mean when it takes a fact
as long as it's clear right i mean i
[1:03:51] think they're somebody else that
probably has a bigger concern of it all
[1:03:54] but
as long as it
[1:03:57] i mean that's my thing as long as it's
clear so everybody knows right
[1:04:01] i just wouldn't want us to run into the
problem you know
[1:04:05] next year when there are municipal
elections and people wondering what
[1:04:09] district they live in for the purposes
of voting for one thing but also for
[1:04:14] those who may wish to run for an elected
office as well
[1:04:18] well that's why we just have to make it
clear but that's where you said the
[1:04:21] state i mean the state already does that
right where it's kind of delayed until
[1:04:26] yeah but theirs is being delayed by like
three months not like 15 months
[1:04:32] that's the difference with ours
[1:04:39] so uh is would it be okay if i bring
back a resolution
[1:04:43] for january 2023
sure is that okay and and does anyone
[1:04:49] have any objection if i put that on the
consent agenda
[1:04:53] no no
thank you lisa
[1:04:58] all right moving to our last discussion
item city council annual goals review
[1:05:04] and update from matt dahl the city
manager
[1:05:24] okay um so
as you'll recall last year was really
[1:05:28] the first year that we put together
annual strategic goals
[1:05:34] for the city and i think through that
process and through the course of the
[1:05:38] last year i think we've learned some
things we wanted to come back and talk
[1:05:40] to you about them i'm going to talk to
you about our current goals a proposed
[1:05:44] set of goals but in the end what we're
going to be doing is for the next
[1:05:47] workshop at the next meeting is we will
be adding
[1:05:51] um
a discussion item on there to go into
[1:05:54] these goals more in depth
and so we could definitely talk about
[1:05:58] them tonight get some direction on all
that
[1:06:00] but this is going to be a continued
process that we're going to work on with
[1:06:04] hopefully the goal of getting it ready
so we can put it in the final budget
[1:06:08] just as a quick reminder the reason that
we're doing these goals is that it helps
[1:06:11] us with resource allocation
both throughout the year but also as
[1:06:14] part of the budget process helps with
communication both internally and
[1:06:19] externally
so that both
[1:06:22] our staff and residents know
what it is the council is sort of
[1:06:25] looking at
as far as our goals go and then the next
[1:06:30] part of it is empowerment particularly
to staff so that they have the
[1:06:36] the knowledge confidence and support of
the council as we move forward with
[1:06:40] projects that support your goals and
then finally is accountability
[1:06:44] one of the primary ways that we've in
this last year showing accountability is
[1:06:47] coming back we've done uh we did two
uh
[1:06:52] regular year reports on the progress
that we made on the goals and then we
[1:06:56] did a report in the uh
in the budget retreat and then we will
[1:07:01] do a final year-end wrap-up of the 2022
goals and the progress that we made on
[1:07:05] those
i think one of the things as far as the
[1:07:08] account of well i'll talk about that i
guess a little bit so as we look at the
[1:07:12] current goals um
the
[1:07:14] current goals are broken up into sort of
four categories one is organizational
[1:07:17] goals currently that means like trying
to get back to normal as you recall last
[1:07:21] year when we set those goals we were
still in
[1:07:25] fairly heavy
[1:07:28] restrictions
and uh we were operating sort of uh in a
[1:07:32] non-normal way
uh in the city and we've been trying to
[1:07:35] move towards uh normalization we've we
have uh
[1:07:39] i think addressed that and gotten to
that point so we're talking about
[1:07:42] removing that goal but that's an example
of one of the organizational goals in
[1:07:46] addition to that we have neighborhood
goals as part of them so those are going
[1:07:48] to be ones where we have a specific goal
that relates to a neighborhood so for
[1:07:52] example redevelop main street then we
have community goals which are sort of
[1:07:55] these broader goals about
[1:08:01] increasing the health of the community
or
[1:08:03] putting in more active transportation
and then finally long-term capital
[1:08:07] projects this often
most often in the goals was referring to
[1:08:10] like our water system and making those
improvements now the reason i'm showing
[1:08:14] this as sort of that breakdown is that
as we look at
[1:08:18] um
maybe adjusting the goal some
[1:08:21] is is there a reason that we would want
to maybe focus more on sort of the
[1:08:24] community goals or are is this group
more interested in some of the more
[1:08:29] specific projects that you guys have
talked about
[1:08:31] we'll get into that a little into a
little bit more once we get into the
[1:08:34] discussion side of things
[1:08:38] so i won't read through all of these uh
you're familiar with them we've talked
[1:08:42] about them every time i've i've done one
of the updates on them but right now for
[1:08:45] fiscal year 22 we have 14 goals
[1:08:50] they range from the categories that i
previously mentioned um we have made uh
[1:08:56] good progress in some of these
categories uh and then some of them uh
[1:09:00] we did not make as good a progress and
we've kind of reported on on why that
[1:09:04] was
but one of the big things i think we
[1:09:08] realized
throughout this process is that really
[1:09:11] if you look at those 14 goals in some
ways it sort of says
[1:09:15] they say combined they say
do what a city does
[1:09:19] which doesn't necessarily give us a
significant level of either
[1:09:22] prioritization or
necessarily a directive vision
[1:09:28] for the city that would allow us to
[1:09:32] that sort of staff sort of feels like
they know what the vision is that the
[1:09:36] council is trying to project now that
doesn't mean that each of these aren't
[1:09:39] good goals it's just that's kind of
of how that sort of ends up
[1:09:44] um
so like i said i won't go through all
[1:09:48] those however so what we try to do
is maybe come up with way of
[1:09:53] consolidating those goals
in a way that um
[1:09:57] it helps us kind of zero in on things a
little bit now as soon as i say that i'm
[1:10:00] going to counter exactly what i just
said so does that mean i'm arguing with
[1:10:04] myself up here probably
[1:10:07] so we try to consolidate the goals down
so at least there weren't as many of
[1:10:10] them but even in trying to do this which
still captures the original 14 goals but
[1:10:15] just kind of a different way it still
sort of says
[1:10:19] let's do the things that a city does
and so
[1:10:23] just real quickly right now this
proposed list would ensure
[1:10:27] midvale city is safe for the entire
community and workforce as we look at
[1:10:30] that that would be trying to focus again
on the 7200 south corridor as well as
[1:10:34] other things
you know kind of into that category goal
[1:10:37] two enhance the appearance of public and
private property through investment
[1:10:40] incentives and uh enforcement this both
covers sort of the idea of looking at
[1:10:46] using the tools we have to encourage the
public to
[1:10:49] improve them so it's whether it's flip
the strip
[1:10:52] or it's enforcing and making people
do a better job of following our our
[1:10:57] code those are the kinds of things that
we're looking in there but it also means
[1:11:00] that as we continue to expand our parks
or
[1:11:05] we address some of the needs in our
facilities that we're just saying we're
[1:11:08] going to support the physical
improvements in the city again that's a
[1:11:11] very broad goal it doesn't necessarily
narrow anything down and it's probably
[1:11:14] worth looking at if that's too broad
goal three ensure midvale city plans
[1:11:21] plans constructs and maintains reliable
infrastructure and public facilities
[1:11:26] again there's a relationship between
those two things but again we're getting
[1:11:29] into this whole sort of idea of making
sure that we're we're maintaining our
[1:11:34] infrastructure system that we need for
the city
[1:11:37] good goal
probably one that would need to stay but
[1:11:40] we can discuss that some more goal 4
supports residents quality of life
[1:11:43] through the expansion of open space
recreational opportunities and active
[1:11:46] transportation
last year when we were talking about the
[1:11:49] goals as you will recall they largely
there was a lot of them that fell into
[1:11:52] this sort of category so it went from
the rec center to um
[1:11:58] parks and our trails and into parks
we have made a lot of pr we've made
[1:12:04] progress in a lot of those things but or
let me rephrase we made a little project
[1:12:08] progress in a whole bunch of things in
this category and that kind of speaks to
[1:12:12] one of the issues is is it something
where we want to leave these broad
[1:12:16] categories and know that we're going to
make incremental progress on many
[1:12:19] different
objectives within that goal or is it
[1:12:23] something that we want to narrow down
more so that we can
[1:12:26] focus our resources into it and perhaps
make more progress
[1:12:29] anyway increasing community engagement
and participation that was a goal from
[1:12:34] last time but we've also had some
additional
[1:12:36] through the budget process and the
budget retreat there was some interest
[1:12:40] in sort of reinforcing that as something
that we want to continue to work on so
[1:12:44] we left that in
supporting the redevelopment of main
[1:12:46] street and the redevelopment of state
street um again we're things that we're
[1:12:50] putting a significant amount of
resources into particularly the main
[1:12:53] street one and so we i felt like you
know sort of keeping that there was an
[1:12:57] important thing
celebrating the history of midvale we've
[1:12:59] had some good recent community
recommendations on how we could address
[1:13:03] that but that is not something that
staff made a significant amount of
[1:13:06] progress in and i know that the council
it was the meeting where i was out sick
[1:13:11] but it seemed like the council was
supportive of this and so it's felt like
[1:13:15] something we would want to keep in there
but just wanted to kind of get your your
[1:13:18] feeling on that and then the final one
is
[1:13:20] over the course of the last year we made
a lot of updates to the single-family
[1:13:23] neighborhoods
but a lot of that was just trying to
[1:13:26] match what was being pushed on us by the
legislature
[1:13:29] and we have a lot more work that we need
to do in that area and so we thought
[1:13:33] about keeping that
that was a really quick way because we
[1:13:36] had a 30 minute
delay in getting started and i know
[1:13:40] we've got a lot of other things and this
is not meant to be an end goal but i did
[1:13:43] just want to sort of prime this concept
of saying
[1:13:48] we need to think a little bit more about
how we communicate the council's
[1:13:52] vision
and if it's broad and expansive that's
[1:13:55] fine and we'll work within that but if
you have thoughts about how we can
[1:13:59] narrow that down to really be able to
communicate to staff in the public the
[1:14:02] things that are the most important to
you
[1:14:05] that's great and i think by doing that
that also helps
[1:14:10] push accountability to staff in order to
make sure that we're showing significant
[1:14:14] progress in maybe those fewer things
rather than a little bit of progress in
[1:14:19] a whole lot of things over the course of
the year
[1:14:21] those are just some real quick thoughts
and primers paul clearly has something
[1:14:25] that he wants to say and so
i'll turn it over to you to your
[1:14:29] thoughts on the goals and how we proceed
with that well i like the goals but
[1:14:33] i agree that they're too broad
and so
[1:14:37] i think in however many goals we decide
if it's 8 10 or whatever
[1:14:42] that we specifically
get
[1:14:47] going on something to try to move it
along
[1:14:51] so you could have your
safety okay well
[1:14:56] what what are we going to do to make it
safe we can't do everything so what are
[1:15:01] specifically what would the council like
to see to make midfield safer what can
[1:15:05] we do
and give specific things that we think
[1:15:10] and we could do that in a workshop talk
about what those things are and each
[1:15:13] goal we could do exactly that
and if we want to use all the goals fine
[1:15:18] if we want to cut the goals down
whatever
[1:15:21] but
be able to say and then when we do that
[1:15:24] say
from our perspective this is what you do
[1:15:27] as a staff to be able to accomplish that
goal yeah
[1:15:30] and
[1:15:34] all i was going to say on that is uh
i think what we did last year and again
[1:15:39] that was the first year that we've done
this so we're kind of working into it
[1:15:41] but was more of this approach of saying
i'm going to report on all the things i
[1:15:45] think fit into these categories and i do
think that whatever sort of we end up
[1:15:49] with those goals i do think that it is
important for us to come back and say
[1:15:54] we know we'll do
eight things whatever five things in
[1:15:57] this category but here are the one two
or three things that the council thinks
[1:16:01] within that goal is is is mission would
be the priority not that the others
[1:16:05] aren't important it's just those are the
priorities
[1:16:07] and as you come back
instead of having to go like when you
[1:16:11] come back and go over the goals you
don't have to go over everything let's
[1:16:14] go over one every
week or every two weeks or whatever
[1:16:18] and talk about what we're doing to it
and to work on those particular ones and
[1:16:23] what you've accomplished
to do it all at one time is like it's
[1:16:28] overwhelming for you and for us
mostly us
[1:16:33] matt i can see why some of these are
broad
[1:16:36] that being said goal nine has been sort
of what i've been asking for for for
[1:16:40] five years now
and now i have this memo from a citizen
[1:16:43] named mike edwards who's literally
saying exactly what i've been worried
[1:16:47] about and has proposed language
you know for it for the amendment and i
[1:16:53] hate that we've gotten to this point
like
[1:16:55] setback requirements i've said from the
beginning are are too much
[1:17:00] um he's done a good job doing what i
think is the city's job
[1:17:06] by finding all of the setbacks for the
neighboring cities and proposing
[1:17:09] language changes and i don't think i've
been that confusing since we've walked
[1:17:12] around my neighborhood so i can show you
where all the
[1:17:15] setback issues already are so what what
can i do to make goal nine a priority
[1:17:20] and less confusing well can i can i add
something yeah one is we've got that as
[1:17:24] a goal nine and then he brought that to
the planning commission and they voted
[1:17:27] it down which is something we've been
asking for and then our commission is
[1:17:33] going against what we want yeah that is
a big problem and we need to communicate
[1:17:37] that i guess with that more than the
city but that what was their reasoning
[1:17:40] what was the planning commission's
reasoning
[1:17:43] i i'm not as anyone there for that but
the bottom line is the planning
[1:17:47] commission can go ahead and down
something it doesn't mean we can't move
[1:17:50] it on and get it done it's coming to us
yeah voted it down it's coming to us so
[1:17:55] that it it's one of those things
we establish what we want as our goals
[1:18:00] and then they chill they're making
decisions that are i mean they're voting
[1:18:04] against what we want but ultimately we
get to make that final decision
[1:18:09] right
um effect is what i worry about
[1:18:14] it's a solid point and i think that um
uh
[1:18:18] i'm not up on exactly what the reasoning
was that they do you remember nate what
[1:18:22] they their reasoning for was turning
those down yeah but it was specific too
[1:18:27] the item was specific to a
[1:18:32] property and a development and so their
reasoning was if
[1:18:36] they did that for this property they
would have to do it across all zones so
[1:18:39] they weren't understanding that's what
we what the council wants they were they
[1:18:44] were looking at it purely from
what effect does this have on all the
[1:18:49] on this zone across the entire city and
they voted it down based on that so it
[1:18:54] very clearly is
them not
[1:18:57] understanding what city what what the
council wants to see
[1:19:01] in the single family zone
and i think kind of evaluating it the
[1:19:06] way that i i would kind of hope that the
council does or i mean sorry the
[1:19:10] planning commission would do would be
not make wholesale changes
[1:19:14] based on an individual
request
[1:19:19] but i think it would be totally
different if they were seeing that this
[1:19:22] request was
that the council was asking for
[1:19:26] wholesale changes yeah um that would be
a whole different thing that's something
[1:19:29] that was information that they didn't
have as a planning commission
[1:19:33] so i think that that's information that
needs to be communicated both ways yeah
[1:19:37] um
you know from this goal
[1:19:40] it's it's
it's yeah it's make changes to
[1:19:44] single-family neighborhoods it's not
we've never been specific to the point
[1:19:48] of the council
fully saying
[1:19:51] we want setbacks to be one foot or
whatever it is like that that we could
[1:19:55] take to the to the planning commission
and say
[1:19:57] this is what our this is what i think
i've been pretty i think i've been that
[1:20:01] specific
and i think people have said that
[1:20:04] they've wanted them but i mean i could
then look through neighboring
[1:20:07] communities and find
setbacks that are appropriate i guess
[1:20:10] and then tell you but i just felt like
when we walked around
[1:20:14] it seemed pretty
you know clear
[1:20:16] and you've been working on that right
yeah we have been working on that um we
[1:20:21] do you know
have some changes that we're going to be
[1:20:24] proposing but
yeah do you know what the timeline is on
[1:20:28] that
right offhand uh no i don't know what
[1:20:30] the timeline is on that offhand
okay but i guess what i'm saying is
[1:20:34] specifically those are instead of the
broad we'll have let's have the broad
[1:20:39] goal but then let's specifically point
out like these things that we really
[1:20:43] want to get accomplished inside the goal
inside the goal here
[1:20:47] that's that's what i would because for
us to bring the goal there's something i
[1:20:52] don't want to say like a pet project but
like there's something that our our
[1:20:55] minds have thought of what that goal
means so that's what i think he's trying
[1:20:58] to say is like let's parse it down so we
can explain
[1:21:02] you know i don't disagree with that
because redeveloping main street could
[1:21:05] mean
virtually anything you know all of us
[1:21:08] could give you a very different
like a very very different
[1:21:12] look of what that means you know
and that's definitely something that we
[1:21:16] can do
um too is not only what you're saying
[1:21:20] but and that's why we want to have a
follow-up discussion and if there's any
[1:21:24] changes that anyone wants to make or
recommend we're open to that so if there
[1:21:27] is a version of
redevelop main street that
[1:21:33] besides the project level but we want to
be more in agreement as far as the
[1:21:37] council is on what
that means redevelop it
[1:21:41] per the plans that we've adopted or you
know something like that i mean
[1:21:46] that's definitely something we could do
and for all of these so i don't want
[1:21:49] anyone to think that we're locked into
these at this point we're working on
[1:21:52] them it's year two we're continuing to
destruct it or reconstruct it your
[1:21:56] points are well taken
matt can i mention
[1:22:00] i've mentioned to you before as far as
goal number one ensuring midvale city is
[1:22:04] safe for the entire community and
workforce
[1:22:07] i think that we should if possible get
some more
[1:22:12] quantitative data that we share with the
public as far as the safety
[1:22:18] is concerned
for instance ufa gives a pretty detailed
[1:22:23] report
quarterly about the number of calls that
[1:22:26] they receive and the type of calls
specifically down to like the very
[1:22:31] number of you know down person or sick
person structural fires or stuff i don't
[1:22:37] think and maybe you and the mayor get
information like that from upd but i
[1:22:42] think that that's something that we
could do a better job of
[1:22:46] sharing publicly because
you know as
[1:22:50] upd becomes you know 25 or more of our
entire city budget i think that we you
[1:22:56] know do owe a bit more to the public as
far as
[1:23:01] their understanding of the types of
calls that upd is getting and the types
[1:23:06] of crimes that are occurring in midvale
so that we can compare them
[1:23:10] quarterly annually to say
this is how things have
[1:23:15] become safer or
you know alternatively hopefully not
[1:23:19] you know these are the areas where it's
become you know
[1:23:23] we've seen an increase in specific types
of criminal activity and
[1:23:28] and that's a good point and we have been
sharing those on a regular basis with
[1:23:33] the council as far as the presentations
that the chief does and and some of that
[1:23:37] but i understand what you're saying that
maybe we can find a way to
[1:23:42] present that in a way to the public that
is different than what we're currently
[1:23:45] you know we see often we see heat maps
and they're the same you know bright red
[1:23:50] 7200 south every time you know for ufa
and upd to be honest um but sometimes i
[1:23:57] think it would be nice to drill down
further and say like yes this is a
[1:24:01] bright red spot but you know
most of the crimes are nuisance crimes
[1:24:07] or something like that or
you know we don't have to have a heat
[1:24:11] map of like where are all the murders in
mid but it would be nice to know i don't
[1:24:16] if someone asked me today how many
murders were there in midvale city last
[1:24:21] year i wouldn't know because
i mean i could go
[1:24:24] to google and maybe try to search that
information out but that's not the type
[1:24:29] of thing that's typically been shared
with us
[1:24:33] in the past in a quarterly or or annual
basis i think that's something we could
[1:24:38] do
a better job of for us as a council to
[1:24:42] be able to address those concerns but
also just having that information for
[1:24:46] the public to
be able to access
[1:24:50] i think that information is on the
website i'm not sure right yes
[1:24:54] okay
[1:24:57] we can
have a i get that not everyone maybe
[1:25:00] feels as comfortable searching for the
information
[1:25:03] and so we can work and see if there's a
way that we can communicate that that uh
[1:25:09] we can come back see if there's
something that meets your guys's needs
[1:25:13] i
i agree with much of what has been said
[1:25:16] and i guess my ask with this is that we
take a a step back because with
[1:25:22] being new to this and having
conversations with employees something
[1:25:26] that i've heard
fairly consistently and in different
[1:25:30] ways
is that staff doesn't always feel like
[1:25:33] they have a vision
from us
[1:25:36] and so i think the goals are great but i
think the what is that overlying vision
[1:25:42] now all of these i think fit into that
goal and what we're talking about
[1:25:46] uh you know the specifics of this
setback like those are all things that
[1:25:50] can flow into that but i think
i mean ideally in my mind for us it's i
[1:25:56] would think we need to i think maybe
this conversation for the workshop but
[1:25:59] but setting out the vision of narrowing
some of this down actually matt i really
[1:26:04] liked
your organizational neighborhood
[1:26:07] community long term and in my mind i
think that's a good starting point of
[1:26:12] creating visions within those areas
potentially
[1:26:15] but then i think if if staff has a
vision
[1:26:19] from council then they can they can come
up with
[1:26:23] the ideas and plans of what
it takes to get to that vision i think
[1:26:28] ultimately
you not necessarily me but approve that
[1:26:33] and give input of course
but i just think that i mean that's
[1:26:36] something i've heard in different terms
is that we
[1:26:39] i think
this is a good conversation but i just
[1:26:42] think for this we've got to take that
step back and look at that broader view
[1:26:46] and i think the our city staff does a
wonderful job of following the
[1:26:51] guidelines that we have in place already
i mean we have a city-wide master plan
[1:26:57] that they follow you know pretty much
any time that we get something before us
[1:27:02] you know if council has a specific ask
or if a council wants to update a policy
[1:27:08] that's you know in the master plan or
any
[1:27:11] policy within you know all of our
ordinances we can do so
[1:27:16] at any time like we're not dependent
upon
[1:27:19] city staff to do that work for us you
know we can request
[1:27:25] proactively that that happen
so you know there are mechanisms in
[1:27:29] place for what you said to
occur and there are mechanisms with you
[1:27:34] know if if i have
a hankering to like change something you
[1:27:39] know i can
put it on the agenda at least for a
[1:27:43] discussion
[1:27:46] so i think that's probably where the
workshops would help more
[1:27:50] is if
if we have something that we
[1:27:53] specifically each of us want
we don't do it all at once we just this
[1:27:58] is what concerns me
then you bring it back to a workshop and
[1:28:02] we all sit down and just discuss it as a
council what direction
[1:28:07] do we want to go to help solve this
specific thing so that we as a council
[1:28:12] come up with
at least an idea of where we're going
[1:28:17] because i mean we're not all going to
agree
[1:28:20] but maybe we can start agreeing on yeah
this is something we really want to
[1:28:24] accomplish
in planning whether what does it mean uh
[1:28:29] to do this or this or this
and
[1:28:32] be able to present our ideas to the
council and say yeah this is the
[1:28:35] direction we want you to go and i might
be a little now i might be a little
[1:28:38] confused on what's being said i
apologize so i mean i see there's sort
[1:28:41] of three levels there's what the mayor
has said sort of on what's the broader
[1:28:44] vision
then there's sort of this idea of like
[1:28:48] what are what is the
what are the goals that the council has
[1:28:51] gotten behind collectively and then
there's the
[1:28:56] individual issues that sort of come up
which still have to be addressed but
[1:29:00] just so what i'm saying is you can do
all of those in a workshop
[1:29:04] part of our workshops is that's what we
need to be
[1:29:07] focusing on
and it can be the overall goal
[1:29:11] the vision
it could be specific
[1:29:14] setbacks
that we're worried about
[1:29:19] it could be
what what are we going to do with the
[1:29:22] single family homes versus the
apartments how much
[1:29:26] how much are we going to let the
apartments move in on get rid of
[1:29:29] single-family homes those kinds of
things
[1:29:33] so let me ask you i think that's a great
idea
[1:29:37] um as far as how we handle the workshops
and i i'm with you but one of the things
[1:29:40] that this brings up that i'm just
curious about is that i do think that
[1:29:45] they're really valuable and we we do tie
those down to being sort of the one hour
[1:29:49] so that we can start the regular
meetings at 7.
[1:29:53] there are things that make have have
traditionally seemed like they make a
[1:29:57] little bit more sense as far as some of
the presentations and things that are
[1:30:00] made by outside groups that aren't
fulfilling your goals
[1:30:04] in those workshops but i guess the thing
that i'm wondering because we there is a
[1:30:09] different um
way that we can address problems in
[1:30:13] those in those meetings is that
something that we could expand
[1:30:18] you know move that to say starting at
five when we have these individual
[1:30:23] things that we need to work through
um
[1:30:26] so that we have more time to address all
of that i just so and i agree i think
[1:30:30] that would be good i we used to have a
city council a workshop and a city
[1:30:36] council so we met three times
and so one complete meeting was
[1:30:42] workshop and we went over all of things
which really helped i'm not advocating
[1:30:47] at other beauty
okay at all
[1:30:50] but maybe a little more time and
specifically get into
[1:30:54] different things that
it gets
[1:30:58] it gets frustrating sometimes you're
here and
[1:31:01] your vision is not what the staff's
doing
[1:31:04] okay sure and i'm not blaming the staff
i'm just it's like this is the way i
[1:31:08] want it done
but they don't understand that they
[1:31:12] really don't and well and i think
sometimes it is that
[1:31:16] the
individual
[1:31:19] looking for a change but we haven't
necessarily got the full input from the
[1:31:22] council and some of that kind of stuff
so
[1:31:24] and
i mean my vision is different than the
[1:31:27] other council
that's
[1:31:30] but we need to come together as a
council to
[1:31:33] work to
improve
[1:31:35] midbell's city yeah this is where i
would just say again where i think a
[1:31:40] vision is is critical i think everybody
will have there you know and i know here
[1:31:45] already in this conversation people have
individual things we would like to see
[1:31:49] uh but for me i would much rather come
up with that vision and then partner
[1:31:54] with our staff and trust our staff
because i look i'm looking at glenn in
[1:31:59] public works i've never worked in public
works and i don't want to pretend like i
[1:32:03] know the best thing to do there but if
we have the vision then i trust that i
[1:32:07] can work with glenn to execute it
and so i think if we can
[1:32:11] again knowing we'll all have specific
things we would like to see but i don't
[1:32:14] want staff
oh i just got this thing i got this
[1:32:18] setback request from brian i'm going to
do that and now i'm going to wait for my
[1:32:21] next request i want you know they're
working on things every single day and i
[1:32:25] want them to have that in their mind
and not be nine or 14 bullet points of
[1:32:29] what they think but
here's what i know the council is
[1:32:33] looking for and when i'm here every day
is what i'm doing working towards those
[1:32:37] that vision i don't want to use the term
goal but that that overall vision it's
[1:32:41] just sometimes the vision that we have
as a council
[1:32:45] isn't necessarily what we have codified
either so
[1:32:49] you know what i was saying is that on
those things like we have specific
[1:32:55] setback language that if
someone wants that changed it needs to
[1:33:00] be changed through the legislative
process it can't just be
[1:33:04] a vision from the council to say like we
want setbacks to be changed like we have
[1:33:09] to do that through
a legislative process and
[1:33:13] you know having different council
members with different ideas of what
[1:33:17] that
setback should be is confusing to the
[1:33:21] staff because and we need to like you
know sometimes you've done a good job of
[1:33:26] this in the past matt and that's you
know even if it's taking a show of hands
[1:33:31] like how many council members support
this
[1:33:35] i do want to say though just i
appreciate you saying that is that um
[1:33:40] i have not met councilman brown's needs
with regards to that and we should have
[1:33:45] brought that for the legislative action
at this point i know you might not have
[1:33:48] been talking about this specifically but
i just he brought no that i just thought
[1:33:51] that was a good example of i mean i
think all of us up here think that that
[1:33:56] needs to change but we can't just all of
a sudden tell the staff like the setback
[1:34:01] is this now
we have to we have to do it throughout
[1:34:05] the process should have acted on that as
well and i appreciate what you're saying
[1:34:07] i know i should have we should i should
have gotten that before you so you could
[1:34:11] take that action sooner
again what i'm saying is not to try to
[1:34:15] say that we can't shouldn't be bringing
those specific
[1:34:19] changes that we want to see but i do
think overall
[1:34:23] having that vision and then as things
come up if we're seeing something
[1:34:26] specifically being able to address it so
maybe mayor do you have an idea of like
[1:34:30] when you're talking about vision
[1:34:36] are you talking about a
statement
[1:34:39] or
or
[1:34:41] is very corporate sounding yeah i know i
know i know i'm open to
[1:34:47] what that looks like again i really
liked these i hadn't seen those four
[1:34:51] bullet points before the organizational
neighborhood i mean i thought that was
[1:34:54] kind of a good i don't know if that's
how that would work i think that's a
[1:34:57] conversation we can have but
so so i've taken down the notes on on
[1:35:02] some of the thoughts so are we saying
coming into the workshop what would be
[1:35:05] helpful is that if the council has sort
of thought about
[1:35:09] concepts for vision that we could share
with the group
[1:35:12] we do need to
solidify the goals
[1:35:16] before the final
gets done so i mean could we still
[1:35:22] if we sort of finalize them on the june
7th meeting does that
[1:35:27] allow us to get into the book
[1:35:31] and long story short this is probably
you should have answered this mariah but
[1:35:35] you know i have to take the microphone
um we just have to have them in place
[1:35:39] before we send the budget book off to
the gfoa so even if we have to do it a
[1:35:44] few weeks i can't remember how much time
we have after the budget's adopted too
[1:35:49] so we we would have time after the
budget was adopted if it if it stretches
[1:35:53] out that long
okay cool oh budget
[1:35:56] might not be adopted until august right
i'm assuming
[1:36:01] um the the the shortest time frame for
us would be a june adoption
[1:36:05] although we've adopted a tentative that
doesn't support that
[1:36:09] but
i always look at worst case scenario
[1:36:13] because that's how my mind thinks
[Laughter]
[1:36:16] um
but yeah we'll we would have extra time
[1:36:19] before we'd have to actually submit the
budget book to the
[1:36:22] gfoa thank you for that clarification so
we'll rework that
[1:36:26] schedule but i think that that would be
useful for the next uh meeting is if we
[1:36:31] come in with
modifications to goals and then sort of
[1:36:34] a concept for a uh
the broader vision so that we can have
[1:36:38] that conversation does that work
there for what you were saying
[1:36:43] that sounds good to me
out of curiosity is i mean i i am
[1:36:47] curious if if there was this talk about
a vision
[1:36:50] if there's anybody who has something in
mind of a i mean i know for me it's a
[1:36:55] lot of i want the city to be accessible
to residents
[1:36:59] so i've had conversations with public
works in this system that glenn
[1:37:03] presented today that ezra as a residency
a pothole or a
[1:37:07] sidewalk that needs to be replaced that
we have an easy way for them to get in
[1:37:10] contact with us about it and that's kind
of what's on my mind
[1:37:13] a vision of accessibility and then i
just named a specific
[1:37:17] um but i am curious if anybody
so
[1:37:21] i mean to be fair to the council and i
get what we're trying to kind of
[1:37:25] accomplish is that so when i started
this is just sort of how it went right
[1:37:28] like we go to our budget retreat and
then they would just say what's your
[1:37:31] goals and i mean what's funny is when
you're first elected in january you have
[1:37:36] like four meetings before you like all
of a sudden they're like what's your
[1:37:40] goals right and there's no way to like
sort of prepare for that
[1:37:44] i mean as you do it for a couple years
you get better at it right but there was
[1:37:48] never a time where um other than like
you know there at that point in time was
[1:37:53] where you really sort of solidified them
and then you could always do it during
[1:37:56] the year but that was just sort of how
it went but for me i guess my vision
[1:37:59] always has been
how do we make midville a place that
[1:38:03] people want to stay
and and that's what has driven the uh
[1:38:07] land use policy right because as soon as
they get a third kid
[1:38:11] they want to move and it's not because
they don't like midvale just because
[1:38:14] they can't you know
um
[1:38:17] or or a second kid in a second car or
something along those lines you know
[1:38:20] it's uh how do we just keep people here
that are here because it's a pretty good
[1:38:24] place to be
see that makes great sense to me as
[1:38:28] you're talking about those change
specific changes appreciate that
[1:38:32] my main goal has always been just to be
a more transparent governmental
[1:38:37] institution for people and that
we've made great strides you know just
[1:38:43] looking at the microphones and cameras
in this room that weren't here five
[1:38:47] years ago four years ago
we've
[1:38:50] we've made improvements there but i
think we can always strive to do better
[1:38:55] to
just be more responsive to our public
[1:38:58] and and have information at fingertips
availability for them
[1:39:07] thank you and that's also helpful
we'll talk about this in a workshop okay
[1:39:13] this could go on all night that's fair
[1:39:18] okay any other comments
[1:39:22] thank you i appreciate your time thank

cody
[1:45:23] thank you so much mayor rda board it's a
pleasure to be with you this evening and
[1:45:27] i appreciate your time
and would like to present to you the
[1:45:31] fiscally the proposed fiscal year 2023
draft budget
[1:45:35] um as always when we are putting
together our budget the forefront of our
[1:45:39] mind is our
vision and mission and our values so
[1:45:43] that when we are
assigning numbers to line items that
[1:45:48] were really bringing it back to
what we want to stand for as a city and
[1:45:53] what we want to accomplish and how that
will reflect
[1:45:58] and
i think we've we've done a good job
[1:46:01] doing that
just an overview of our budget
[1:46:06] we're expecting more growth in the
jordan bluffs project area
[1:46:11] a considerable amount of growth and
we're seeing we're going to see the
[1:46:17] basically the full value of the zions
technology headquarter come online
[1:46:22] and
this year there's just a small portion
[1:46:25] of it that's online
and
[1:46:28] a little bit more growth
in bingham junction project area main
[1:46:32] street project area is still not online
that will not be triggered for another
[1:46:36] two years so it'll be march 2024 when we
first get tax increment from the main
[1:46:41] street project area and
we have
[1:46:45] goals to spend down our city-wide
housing fund balance
[1:46:49] and
get that money out there and helping
[1:46:52] people get housing
our rda operations funds there's really
[1:46:57] no significant deviations from the
fiscal year 2022 budget
[1:47:02] so
really no no drastic changes a little
[1:47:05] bit of increases for
inflation and just for
[1:47:11] for staff but that's really it
[1:47:16] bingham junction
a major expenditure we're looking at
[1:47:20] spending 1.6 million in public
improvements
[1:47:24] and this is money that's going to be
directed just outside of the project
[1:47:27] area
which is an allowable use if you can
[1:47:31] illustrate that it does present a direct
benefit to that project area which
[1:47:36] being
directly adjacent to the bingham
[1:47:39] junction project area
and we also plan on improving
[1:47:44] connectivity
between those up those
[1:47:48] apartment complexes and uh
through holden and so that's gonna be
[1:47:53] money directed to improve the main
street north entrance
[1:47:58] and um
it's the concept from blue line that
[1:48:01] nate has presented a few times and then
we also have a 50 000 transfer to main
[1:48:06] street cda
which will be paid back as funds are
[1:48:10] received in main street
so that's
[1:48:14] the whole proposed fiscal year 2023
budget but
[1:48:19] i covered the the main
changes and then
[1:48:23] everything else will just be meeting our
obligation with debt service with
[1:48:28] payments to developers
and transfers to admin and the
[1:48:33] affordable housing fund
[1:48:37] the jordan plus project area as i said
we're expecting a significant increase
[1:48:41] in tax increment revenue and with that
goes an increase in
[1:48:46] the developer reimbursement so
reimbursing zions and gardner and
[1:48:50] wasatch for for their investment in the
jordan bluffs project area
[1:48:54] and
a contribution towards the fund balance
[1:48:57] so we anticipate about 150 000 not being
used being put towards the fund balance
[1:49:02] towards future uses
so as you can see there's
[1:49:08] um
a large jump in that
[1:49:13] contributions from other governments 1.2
million to 2.1 million um as those as
[1:49:18] that zions technology building comes
online on and hits the tax rolls
[1:49:25] and then the main street project area
as i said it's still not triggered not
[1:49:29] for another two years we'll begin
collecting tax increment
[1:49:32] and then we anticipate
putting a lot of effort towards
[1:49:37] spinning down that revolving loan
fund
[1:49:40] that we have we have a revolving loan
program which there's actually an
[1:49:44] applicant here tonight
requesting funds from that program
[1:49:48] um
1.5 million dollars was allocated to it
[1:49:53] and fronted it from bingham junction and
so
[1:49:56] we're hoping to spend down the remainder
next year if possible and then 70 000
[1:50:01] towards public art
[1:50:05] and then finally is the
the city-wide housing fund and we're
[1:50:10] looking to
spend two million dollars in affordable
[1:50:13] housing incentives
a small portion of that it will be
[1:50:17] directed towards a developer in
the jordan bluffs project area wasatch
[1:50:23] residential for atira that was signed i
believe back in 2016.
[1:50:29] um
as i think they have 190 units that are
[1:50:33] at the 60 ami level and so they receive
[1:50:39] affordable housing funds for that and
then
[1:50:42] 275 000 for housing programs
and that includes the
[1:50:49] programs that are in our
housing
[1:50:53] housing plan goals and objectives
and
[1:50:56] one of those is more specifically called
the home repair loan program which we
[1:51:00] have a meeting with neighbor works
tomorrow which is
[1:51:04] an affordable housing organization
that
[1:51:07] helps cities administer programs and so
um maggie treeley has been doing some
[1:51:14] research and looking into organizations
that that help facilitate
[1:51:18] programs from cities and we're going to
be meeting with them tomorrow discussing
[1:51:22] what kinds of programs they offer how
effective they are and
[1:51:27] looking at a potential partnership with
them
[1:51:31] if there's any questions i'm happy to to
feel them about our draft 2023 budget
[1:51:43] oh sorry
i just wanted to say not about the
[1:51:46] budget but um just in
the article that was in the tribune on
[1:51:51] sunday where both you and
nate were mentioned
[1:51:56] quite a bit um it was very impressed
with both of your comments and knowledge
[1:52:01] and just that type of
media coverage that we received on our
[1:52:06] main street project area i think is in
a lot due to the efforts that you and
[1:52:12] nate and other staff members have put
together over the past few years and i
[1:52:16] just wanted to thank you both for that
publicly
[1:52:20] i appreciate that
agreed we've been gotten some great
[1:52:24] we've been in main street's been in the
news uh twice in the last
[1:52:27] week and a half
yeah it's great yeah it's been great
[1:52:32] and i know nate loved the
headline that asked if we'd be the next
[1:52:36] park city
[1:52:41] how much did
how much did you pay them for that
[1:52:45] [Laughter]
[1:52:56] headline matt's making a note of this on
one of the sheets in the budget here the
[1:53:03] percents just aren't calculated it says
0.0 on all of them oh i see it appears
[1:53:08] it shouldn't so
technically what you're passing is the
[1:53:12] rda budgets that are in the tentative
budget book
[1:53:15] uh
which are all the same i think there's
[1:53:19] like an administrative charge that's
different but what you're passing is
[1:53:21] what's in the budget book and not
necessarily what
[1:53:24] is it zero percent on the budget book i
don't know
[1:53:28] or in cody's presentation it's in the
the packet
[1:53:33] what was emailed to us
we'll adjust it okay
[1:53:47] okay any other
comments questions for cody

[1:55:37] robinson i am brown yes
okay that passes thank you
[1:55:42] moving on to our action item consider
resolution number 202205
[1:55:47] rda approving proposed amendments to the
fiscal year 2022 redevelopment agency
[1:55:52] midville city budget for the bingham
junction jordan bluffs main street and
[1:55:56] citywide housing rda
funds
[1:56:00] cody
[1:56:03] all right
this is the
[1:56:07] uh the same budget amendments that we
discussed two weeks ago
[1:56:13] this is the same
except for three additional changes have
[1:56:16] been proposed
basically i've just gone through and
[1:56:20] calculated all of the tax increment
reimbursement agreement payments for
[1:56:24] bingham junction and jordan bluffs
so what's approved is what we
[1:56:29] forecast what we estimate will be paid
out
[1:56:32] i've trued this up to what has been
calculated and what we will actually be
[1:56:36] paying out so in
bingham junction
[1:56:41] we have
just a decrease of developer
[1:56:45] reimbursement of 122
686
[1:56:50] and
in jordan bluffs there is a decrease
[1:56:55] by 39 510 so the bingham junction
basically there's one developer that had
[1:57:03] qualified for more reimbursement than
they had submitted
[1:57:06] approved expenses
and so um we only
[1:57:11] provide them reimbursement for what they
have been approved for and so that's
[1:57:15] really the cause for that
and the 39 510
[1:57:21] is pretty close so
and then there's also a reimbursement of
[1:57:26] tax increment for
dedicated to affordable housing and that
[1:57:31] is about 135 000 so we increased the
affordable housing incentives by about
[1:57:38] 135 000 to um
match up with that um
[1:57:44] payment to wasatch residential for the
190 units that they have
[1:57:48] at 60
area medium income and so um all of the
[1:57:53] amendments we've previously discussed
um with except for those three changes
[1:57:59] and then their associated
decrease in contribution to fund balance
[1:58:03] so balancing out the the account and so
i'm happy to
[1:58:08] address any questions or concerns
i have a a question about the affordable
[1:58:14] housing incentives
um
[1:58:16] that's a startling number to be honest
um to be
[1:58:22] sent back to the developer who's you
know
[1:58:26] they're not hurting
for money um but
[1:58:30] that agreement being what it is
i would just like to
[1:58:34] see
more data on that
[1:58:37] specifically
what
[1:58:39] 190 units and if we could
also perhaps ask them to provide us with
[1:58:46] the details regarding
the actual um
[1:58:51] like rent
that data okay i would like to see that
[1:58:54] as well um you know
this is an aside but um you know the
[1:58:59] units that are
i always forget the name of them but
[1:59:04] i think they're florentine villas
which you know most of those units there
[1:59:09] are set aside i think for affordable
you know one of my residents texted me
[1:59:16] yesterday to say that her rent had gone
up several hundred dollars from
[1:59:21] last year's lease to this year's lease
so you know i do have some concerns that
[1:59:26] we're
reimbursing
[1:59:29] developers that much who are then
raising
[1:59:33] rents even if it is you know
a unit designated for affordability
[1:59:39] i don't know many people in that
position who can afford that type of
[1:59:44] increase
so i i would like some more
[1:59:48] data and more information on that since
it is you know
[1:59:52] 688 thousand dollars
absolutely i can send that to you
[2:00:04] my idea sorry just to expand if we're
giving them 688 thousand dollars it
[2:00:08] doesn't seem like they would need to
raise rents so dramatically
[2:00:13] so only 135 000 of that
is
[2:00:17] associated with that agreement the other
amount is
[2:00:21] so at the beginning of the year we had
1.1 million and then we wanted to
[2:00:25] increase that to
1.7
[2:00:28] for a loan that we'd like to make to
sunset gardens for their affordable
[2:00:32] housing project
which we've discussed and i'm thinking
[2:00:36] it will be
the agreement will be up for
[2:00:38] consideration um the next meeting um
and then
[2:00:43] so there's only 135 000 of that is
for the
[2:00:48] that specific agreement okay that is i
agree that is a large that is a large
[2:00:51] number and something that we definitely
want to keep an eye on okay thank you
[2:00:58] any other questions or comments for cody
[2:01:02] okay
is there a motion on
[2:01:06] resolution 2022

[2:02:03] bringing before you guys tonight
our first loan application through the
[2:02:07] revolving loan program for the main
street area
[2:02:10] this application was submitted by the
hive design group
[2:02:14] and they're requesting a loan of two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars and
[2:02:19] as you may remember
um
[2:02:21] all loan requests above the twenty five
thousand dollar threshold will be
[2:02:26] brought before the board for approval
so i'll just briefly introduce their
[2:02:31] plan for using the funds but
[2:02:35] coming up shortly i'll have josh and
payton
[2:02:37] before the board to provide their vision
and
[2:02:41] to talk a little bit more about the ways
in which their plans will enhance
[2:02:45] and revitalize the main street area so
the hive design group is planning on
[2:02:51] using the funds to purchase and renovate
the current midfield main street theater
[2:02:57] their plan is to use the building as a
dual purpose space with their
[2:03:02] their
hive design
[2:03:04] groups office space on the second floor
and they will operate the theater which
[2:03:09] they hope to call the pearl
on the main floor
[2:03:14] and so once they acquire the theater the
hive design group plans to renovate the
[2:03:18] space and update the street's presence
and restore it to its former glory
[2:03:24] and then i'll just briefly go over the
loan terms
[2:03:28] which were
[2:03:32] decided by this the staff analyzed the
proposal
[2:03:36] and evaluated it based on the public
benefit criteria
[2:03:41] and those terms are a loan amount of the
250 000 with the term of seven years
[2:03:47] an interest rate of 1.75
and the permitted use of funds will be
[2:03:53] to purchase the main street theater and
provide interior renovations to the
[2:03:57] upstairs office space and to fund the
construction of the marquis sign
[2:04:02] you will see in the next couple slides
that john and payton kind of have
[2:04:06] additional plans for the
building but the permitted uses will
[2:04:11] only fall underneath those listed
and then i know in the packet i had put
[2:04:16] monthly payments but i think that that
would be
[2:04:21] a lot of admin on my side so i think
we're going to do yearly payments unless
[2:04:25] the board has any other thoughts on that
and then the two other items is that the
[2:04:30] borrower will agree to submit payments
and invoices to the rda to verify that
[2:04:35] they're using the funds
for the permitted uses
[2:04:39] and that they have to illustrate that
the collateral to the proposed loan
[2:04:42] ratio is 82 percent
and then with that i will have
[2:04:47] peyton and john come up and talk a
little bit more about their plans
[2:05:00] and just state your name for the record
please
[2:05:02] uh i'm peyton wonderly
john simmoner
[2:05:07] we just do that next is the next button
all right all right
[2:05:12] yeah so uh
our our dream is the pearl on main
[2:05:17] we so we've been on main street for two
and a half years we we love it here we
[2:05:21] want to stay on main street and we
through the grapevine heard
[2:05:25] that this might be available so um
yeah we reached out to the owners and
[2:05:30] initiated the purchase process and then
found out this this great loan
[2:05:37] i guess uh do we so we just talking
about what our plans are here yes yeah
[2:05:42] cool
so um
[2:05:45] you know
our building and the in the services the
[2:05:50] the
the theater i guess the tenant
[2:05:54] will kind of work in uh
in collaboration with a lot of different
[2:05:59] and you can see on on the the site map
here
[2:06:02] you know we we know there's a lot of
residential coming and we're working on
[2:06:05] those projects ourselves there's res
there's restaurant entertainment um so i
[2:06:10] think we'll
our uh
[2:06:14] our theater operations will work nicely
with everything else that's going on in
[2:06:18] the city
um it'll bring a
[2:06:21] an entertainment venue
that's much needed and it'll bring a lot
[2:06:25] of people to the street right yeah
yeah i think a more regular
[2:06:29] entertainment as opposed to
three to six shows a year would be
[2:06:34] something nice to kind of the goal is to
bring
[2:06:36] to bring a hundred plus people to the
street
[2:06:39] on a on a daily basis rather than
every few months exactly
[2:06:45] um the public amenity um
just activating the street on a regular
[2:06:51] basis making i know safety is a huge
component for what we're talking about
[2:06:55] on main street and just to light the
thing up on that portion of the street
[2:06:59] and
make it feel more welcoming um
[2:07:02] yeah
public art amenity we've been working
[2:07:05] with the all caps group who just had
their collaborators or their creators
[2:07:08] conferences last week we'd love to work
with groups like that and just kind of
[2:07:12] create
a space that more people can use on a
[2:07:16] more frequent basis as opposed to what
we see now
[2:07:18] yeah open it up to community groups and
other you know art
[2:07:24] art amenities like that yeah
um instead you know it's a it's a
[2:07:30] it's a cool building with a great
amount of history um it hasn't been
[2:07:34] renovated for quite a bit of time um
we'd like to restore it to where it was
[2:07:39] you know some of the the burke or the
irish you can see they had a
[2:07:43] had a really cool street presence and
it's lost some of that you know so so
[2:07:47] step one would be
to build that marquee and and
[2:07:52] really grab the street presence there
and and
[2:07:56] highlight i mean it would it would give
like an instant um
[2:08:02] i don't know
personality in the street and they would
[2:08:05] work alongside with this this arts
district that we're trying to create and
[2:08:09] um
create a space that
[2:08:12] i don't know is welcoming and gives a
an identity to main street here yes my
[2:08:17] some definitive character right for sure
i'd say um art based business
[2:08:21] we're an architecture firm upstairs
um
[2:08:25] kind of the functionality
tying in
[2:08:29] arts with construction um
i think we have
[2:08:33] a lot of resources that can help us
network wise
[2:08:37] and help bring development to the street
just with who we work with on a regular
[2:08:41] basis
activating the street like we talked
[2:08:44] about lighting it up making it feel a
lot more safe
[2:08:46] creating jobs we already have a director
of operations and entertainment kind of
[2:08:51] at the ready um
and then there'd be you know concessions
[2:08:55] ticket takers there'd be
a whole lot of of
[2:08:59] jobs that come along with the theater
operations downstairs along with um
[2:09:05] you know our our business upstairs
growing and
[2:09:08] um we have several actually midvale
residences on our on our staff is trevon
[2:09:15] bueller still with you guys of course he
is yeah he lives in the town homes right
[2:09:18] over here yeah yeah um
we have two others that work that
[2:09:22] live in the area too so it's
it's a special place for us um
[2:09:28] and like i like we said earlier we've
been here for two two and a quarter
[2:09:31] years
so we love it we want to stay here and
[2:09:35] we want to see it grow we're excited
about all the programs that the rda is
[2:09:40] working on and happy to be part of it
future so this is this is long range
[2:09:45] once we we've
um
[2:09:48] kind of
established ourselves and we're settled
[2:09:51] in um
we'd love to
[2:09:54] to redevelop the space using the upper
floor housing initiative and and kind of
[2:09:58] um creating low-income housing on the
upper floors of the
[2:10:03] of the building and uh
yeah and we so we worked on a couple a
[2:10:10] few net zero
truly net zero projects in in the state
[2:10:14] and
um we'd love to bring that to the to the
[2:10:17] project as well some sustainability yeah
that's kind of long
[2:10:21] long range goals though yeah well we're
always want to create a place that gives
[2:10:25] people opportunity
to kind of present what they have to do
[2:10:28] and
the affordable housing we know is a
[2:10:30] major issue in the state and
in midvale we'd love to be able to help
[2:10:34] out there
yeah i think that's that's the
[2:10:37] presentation
i think that's it
[2:10:40] yeah
any questions
[2:10:43] thank you
before yeah don't i wouldn't go too far
[2:10:46] probably yeah we have some questions
so yeah does the board have any
[2:10:50] questions comments or concerns about
the proposed loan agreement
[2:10:57] i would just suggest you there is a arts
council of midvale
[2:11:01] right and uh you know quick wits
performs weekly
[2:11:06] i definitely engage with them if your
goal is sort of a broader arts concept
[2:11:11] to work with them
quick wits especially they they're sort
[2:11:15] of looking to always sort of
offer more than just their friday show
[2:11:19] whether that's like weekly sort of
[2:11:23] lessons on how to do
improv and things like that so i
[2:11:26] definitely think if you guys reached out
to them that would be a benefit
[2:11:29] uh and the arts council because i do
think this is
[2:11:33] a very sweetheart deal of an interest
rate you know with especially how
[2:11:36] interest rates are at the moment
you know so
[2:11:42] i think it's a great idea i think one
component of most successful main
[2:11:45] streets is some type of theater
that not only does like performative
[2:11:51] theater but also shows movies so i'm
glad that you guys are
[2:11:57] wanting to keep that going i think
that's very important moving forward
[2:12:02] my question would be
you know if you know down the road if
[2:12:05] you're able to um put in those 12 units
would you still uh be focused on
[2:12:12] maintaining the theater
component of it okay
[2:12:16] yeah
yeah a lot of soundproofing probably
[2:12:21] could get loud but
there are people though you know there
[2:12:25] are a lot of people who would love to
live above a theater
[2:12:29] and fully aware of the noise
so i think it's yeah i think it's great
[2:12:34] do you guys see ever bringing in smaller
concerts or anything yes yes that's the
[2:12:38] only thing i feel like we are lacking in
the area yeah um
[2:12:42] that's one thing we've discussed for
sure yeah
[2:12:45] so yeah renovating the
theater itself
[2:12:48] making it a
a space that has a certain vibe that i
[2:12:52] don't know yeah multi-purpose kind of
event center it would be nice to do
[2:12:55] corporate things during the day just to
keep the thing as active as possible as
[2:12:58] opposed to like
yeah bring in low-key kind of music
[2:13:01] music yeah will you keep the mosaics
that they have there like the joker
[2:13:07] especially the joker mosaic is one of
the best things
[2:13:12] are you planning on keeping both spaces
or moving all business functions to the
[2:13:16] new area once it's complete
we'll move our offices there
[2:13:21] yeah we're currently in the coca-cola
mural building
[2:13:25] i guess my one concern on the finances
is i really think it ought to be monthly
[2:13:30] not yearly
okay
[2:13:33] i mean we have the facilities to be able
to accept
[2:13:38] monthly payments and
it's just to me it's like
[2:13:42] even i'm in business and i'd rather pay
once a month and have to come up with a
[2:13:46] lump sum at the end of the year to pay
off
[2:13:49] we're finding a way this is
such a this is such a sweetheart deal
[2:13:53] they probably would be fine i just think
we need to be monthly i told lisa weekly
[2:13:58] cash
okay yeah perfect
[2:14:02] in pennies preferably so yeah
lisa do they have with us providing this
[2:14:07] this loan or any i guess it's the rda do
they have to sort of
[2:14:11] uphold our same sort of standards with
what they perform or whatnot like i know
[2:14:15] our theater is always worried about
you know like the swears in it so you
[2:14:20] know maybe we can't do anything
they're not restricted to that right
[2:14:23] okay
so you could show a rated r movie yeah
[2:14:27] okay good
if you yeah probably not with
[2:14:31] concessions though right not
alcohol is it a theater
[2:14:36] [Laughter]
[2:14:40] uh any other comments or concerns uh
what's the timeline for you know if
[2:14:45] everything were approved
what's your
[2:14:48] go date we close on the purchase next
month june so we we would immediately
[2:14:54] start
renovating the office space and then
[2:14:56] working we're already we've already
reached out to the side guys
[2:15:02] are you working and i forget her name
but
[2:15:06] the person who tammy
yes
[2:15:09] you're keeping her
okay good
[2:15:13] okay
she
[2:15:15] yeah that's good
that's i don't doubt your i don't doubt
[2:15:19] your ability to maintain a theater but i
feel like she'd probably be a pretty
[2:15:23] good resource
[2:15:28] good good
[2:15:31] any other comments questions
okay thank you all yeah appreciate you
[2:15:36] and um i will change it to monthly i
just wanted to see with that one change
[2:15:42] would the board be okay with having this
on the consent agenda for the next rda
[2:15:47] board meeting i would
i feel like it we should probably vote
[2:15:52] on it
yeah and not put it together it's just a
[2:15:57] you know a pretty significant amount of
money okay
[2:16:00] okay thank you for your time

[2:17:18] it didn't say the
middle city municipal i'm sorry what
[2:17:23] in the public comments portion it says

[2:17:27] redevelopment agency in midvale city

[2:17:31] weeks ago i saw it then meant to mention

[2:17:35] you
all right we've got a public hearing
[2:17:38] item public hearing to receive public
comments and consider adoption of
[2:17:41] resolution number 2022-01
mba of the municipal building authority
[2:17:47] of midvale city fiscal year 2023
tentative budget beginning
[2:17:51] july 1st 2022 and ending june 30th 2023
is there a motion to open the public
[2:17:57] hearing
[2:18:00] alright yes motion we open the public
here second
[2:18:04] there's nothing i'm tired
any discussion
[2:18:09] all those in favor
aye yes
[2:18:12] yes
any against sounds strange
[2:18:15] okay we are in a public hearing ryan
this one's pretty easy
[2:18:20] uh
um this the revenue coming in is just
[2:18:24] the lease revenue from the boys and
girls club street lighting fund the city
[2:18:27] and head start and then a tiny bit of
interest we're budgeting for um and then
[2:18:33] the expenditures
are our bond payments um and then we are
[2:18:38] just adding an additional three thousand
dollars for arbitrage arbitrage rebate
[2:18:41] calculations which is a part of our
bonds
[2:18:45] and that is it
[2:18:49] i didn't have a q i don't have a
question slide is there a question
[2:18:54] i i
i think i've asked this before
[2:18:57] why don't we just have this as part of
our
[2:19:00] regular city budget rather than have
like separate meetings for the mba when
[2:19:05] it seems like all of this could be built
into our city budget
[2:19:11] lisa can probably explain this better
but you know i like the microphone
[2:19:14] tonight
so the mba is a separate legal entity
[2:19:17] the bonds were issued through that
separate legal entity so that's why we
[2:19:21] have to have the separate meetings okay
so once those bonds
[2:19:26] are no more
then
[2:19:30] we
right we wouldn't need to have these
[2:19:32] meetings okay until we build another
building okay there are other financing
[2:19:37] mechanisms but we can talk about it at
that time
[2:19:41] okay that's it
i'll try to remember that for next year
[2:19:44] when i ask the same questions
[2:19:51] okay we don't want that
any comments or questions from ryan
[2:19:55] mary move that we closed the public

in the mba
[2:22:08] right and then we declare the intent to
