I do we have anything we need to change

00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:28,240
No changes, mayor.

00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:47,520

24
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:51,159
here that'd like to come forward, uh,
time is now yours.

25
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:59,759
All right, seeing no one coming forward,
we'll close open session tonight and

26
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:04,159
we'll move on to item six, consent
items. There's a few listed there. City

00:02:02,159 --> 00:02:09,679
council me minutes from February 3rd,
2026 meeting payment approval reports

00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:14,720
for February 19th, 2026 and the 25th of
February. Do I have a a motion?

29
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:18,560
» Uh, mayor, I will make a motion to

30
00:02:16,959 --> 00:02:21,520
listed on the agenda.
>> Thank you. I have a motion by council

31
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:24,480
member Rogers. Do I have a second?
>> I'll second.

32
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,879
» Second by council member Phillips. All
those in favor?

33
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:31,920
» I.
>> Unanimous. Thank you.

34
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:36,400
» All right. Moving on to items number
seven. Nothing. Uh no board commissioner

35
00:02:34,959 --> 00:02:45,200
committee appointments this time. No
presentations at this time. Um item nine

36
00:02:41,519 --> 00:02:49,680
9A public hearings. We'll move to 9A
public hearing to consider ordinance

37
00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:54,239
2026-00007
amending the compensation schedule for

38
00:02:51,519 --> 00:02:57,920
the statuto officers appointed officers
of Pleasant Grove City and providing for

39
00:02:56,640 --> 00:03:02,400
effective date. And I think you're going
to take care of item uh B2 for that. Is

40
00:03:00,959 --> 00:03:05,400
that correct?
>> Okay.

41
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:30,959
Okay, we have two separate items.
They're specific to really the same

42
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:34,280
thing.
Oh my gosh,

43
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:42,080
this is so much easier when it's right
on my screen. Okay. Um, [clears throat]

44
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:46,159
the reason there are two separate items
is, uh, by statute, we have to have two

45
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:51,519
separate public hearings. So, I'll
introduce them at the same time. Uh, uh,

46
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:54,480
every every year we do a mid-year
adjustment,

47
00:03:53,182 --> 00:04:00,319
[clears throat] uh, for different parts
of the city. Uh it's where we do a full

48
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:05,519
market analysis and we uh make sure that
we're staying compensation wise. We're

49
00:04:02,959 --> 00:04:09,840
staying competitive with our u with
cities and uh really we're comparing to

50
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:14,000
other cities. We don't compare against
the private sector. It's kind of hard to

51
00:04:11,519 --> 00:04:19,919
get private sector data. Uh so we
specifically um do that with comparing

52
00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:22,960
against other cities. Um [clears throat]
three years ago we did the police

53
00:04:21,199 --> 00:04:28,000
department. Two years ago was the fire
department. Last year was public works

54
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:31,919
and parks. Uh this year is really the
remaining departments. So admin

55
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:37,759
community development
um recreation library and also the

56
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:45,120
department heads. So anytime we change
compensation as far as um the the salary

57
00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:49,520
ranges or the actual compensation then
uh there is a public hearing that is

58
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:55,440
associated with that. So what you have
uh before you is the current range and

59
00:04:52,479 --> 00:05:01,600
the new proposed range for uh all the
positions that are um [clears throat]

60
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:06,800
appointed. So um when we deal with this
with um almost all the other employees,

61
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:11,440
we do the same things, but it doesn't
require council uh a public hearing and

62
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:17,360
council approval to change those ranges.
We just handle that administratively.

63
00:05:13,759 --> 00:05:21,039
Um but as you can see here um actually
through our research we were doing

64
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:24,639
pretty good as far as uh being
competitive uh with the market.

65
00:05:23,573 --> 00:05:29,120
[clears throat] A couple of the ranges
aren't changing. Um but we do have some

66
00:05:27,199 --> 00:05:34,000
ranges that were a little out of whack
and so we have made uh those requisite

67
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:38,000
changes. So you can see the positions on
the left and then we have the current

68
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:43,840
range, the mid, the mid, the minimum,
mid and max and then the new range. So,

69
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:49,600
is there any questions about this?
>> I'm just Yeah, I'm just wondering um

70
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:54,359
could you just kind of just dis disclose
to us or let us know what cities are we

71
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,560
talking about? You referenced like we
[clears throat]

72
00:05:54,960 --> 00:06:01,280
» kind of try and pull different cities.
Are we talking about cities that are

73
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:05,840
kind of our same demographic, size, kind
of work requirement? Yeah. department

74
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:09,680
size, department kind of overhead type
thing or is it just everybody that

75
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:15,039
» No, we [clears throat] focus on Utah
County and we do have uh larger cities

76
00:06:13,039 --> 00:06:19,520
and we also have smaller cities. Out of
the cities in Utah County, Pleasant

77
00:06:16,639 --> 00:06:24,160
Grove at 40,000 people is probably right
in the middle of size cities. So we'll

78
00:06:21,919 --> 00:06:29,759
have cities we'll compare against um
like a Provo Orum, but we'll also

79
00:06:26,479 --> 00:06:35,199
compare against a Santa Quinn and a PAC.
And so um we we've done this with all

80
00:06:32,319 --> 00:06:41,360
the um employees. Every time we do this
we use we we belong to a service called

81
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:46,720
TechNet which is where the cities that
participate in TechNet upload all that

82
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:52,479
information so that we can go to this uh
particular website with that's been

83
00:06:49,039 --> 00:06:57,199
populated and it goes through the you
know the salary scales and wages. And so

84
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:00,880
when we [clears throat] do that, there
are a couple things that we might

85
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,680
customize a little bit if there's
something we're looking at that just

86
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:07,919
doesn't make sense. Either we'll make a
phone call to a city and say, um, you

87
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:11,680
know, have you updated your ranges in
there? It does say when the cities have

88
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:16,160
updated their ranges because that that
matters. Most cities are just like us

89
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:21,919
where um they handle their business
usually on the fiscal year. So most

90
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:25,120
raises will come in July. Um but if and
some and a lot of cities will do

91
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:28,720
mid-year increase similar to what we're
doing where we're doing an analysis

92
00:07:26,639 --> 00:07:34,880
where we go a little deeper.
>> Um but that's that's who we compare

93
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:38,400
against. And so we feel um if we compare
it against cities that were just really

94
00:07:37,039 --> 00:07:43,280
more or less our size, we're only
comparing probably against three cities.

95
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:48,720
And so we try to make it a little bit
more data driven in a sense that we're

96
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:53,680
going to have more information. I would
say most of these David eight cities

97
00:07:51,039 --> 00:07:58,800
usually eight or
>> seven or eight is um is what we were

98
00:07:57,199 --> 00:08:02,560
compared against. So it's a good
question.

99
00:07:59,759 --> 00:08:06,639
» Okay. Any other questions?
>> All right.

100
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:09,360
» Okay. Let me go to um
part two of this.

101
00:08:09,290 --> 00:08:15,919
» [clears throat]
>> So because we have

102
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:22,560
are making a recommendation that we
increase the salaries for uh the

103
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:27,599
appointed officials. Um and this is a
new law. I think this is about two years

104
00:08:24,319 --> 00:08:30,560
old uh where uh in the past it just had
to be ranges. Now if we're doing an

105
00:08:29,039 --> 00:08:36,000
actual increase then it needs to be
disclosed through a public hearing. Uh

106
00:08:33,279 --> 00:08:40,479
so on the left is the positions on the
right is the market salary increase.

107
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:44,880
You'll see most of them are 3% meaning
that we were pretty close to where we

108
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:49,920
needed to be market. The 3% is a
placeholder to keep us into market. And

109
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:56,720
then we had some that weren't um that
were below market. Uh namely community

110
00:08:52,720 --> 00:09:01,279
development, uh library, police, fire,
and our uh building official. Uh so we

111
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:06,720
have uh a little bit more of a percent
increase for them to help uh catch them

112
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:09,920
up with market wages.
Is there any questions about that?

113
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:13,920
» I know this one's hard for you to come
up as a city manager [laughter] and talk

114
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,240
about yourself and the directors, but
yeah, thank you.

115
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:20,880
» No, I appreciate it. Uh, this is the
nature of city government. I mean, most

116
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:25,680
if you're trying to find somebody's
salary that's not in public service,

117
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:30,240
good luck. Uh, our salaries are online.
Like, you can go to the transparency

118
00:09:27,519 --> 00:09:34,240
website if anybody wants to see uh what
our salaries are. And and that's fine.

119
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:37,760
That's part of being a a government
employee and needs to be transparent.

120
00:09:36,399 --> 00:09:43,040
The public needs to know how the tax
dollars are spent. Um we we uh own every

121
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:47,920
bit of this. I mean, we we want to play
pay a market. We want to attract good

122
00:09:45,279 --> 00:09:54,000
employees. And so, um that's that's our
goal. We are not the highest paid in the

123
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:59,120
county. We're not the lowest paid. I
feel like we're in a pretty good spot

124
00:09:55,360 --> 00:10:03,920
where we're being fair to the employees.
>> Do you have a breakdown of how market

125
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:08,560
study was done. So, we do have residents
ask what specific cities how the how it

126
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:11,440
was conducted at what time period. Do
you have a breakdown of how that market?

127
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,000
» Yeah, if somebody wants to do a grandma
request and if they want to take a look

128
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:16,240
for us is
>> No, if you guys want to see it. Yeah, we

129
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,160
can show it to you.
>> You want to send that out?

130
00:10:17,519 --> 00:10:20,880
» Yeah.
>> Yeah, we'll we'll send you the

131
00:10:19,680 --> 00:10:23,680
» Yeah, that'd be helpful to see kind of
the data.

132
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,839
» Yeah.
>> And was that 9B you took care of right

133
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,200
there?
>> What's that?

134
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,320
» Was that 9B?
>> That was 9B.

135
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,839
» Okay.
>> So, 9A is the ranges. 9B is the actual

136
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:36,800
salary changes.
>> All right. Any other questions for 9A

137
00:10:33,519 --> 00:10:41,200
and 9B for Scott?
All right. So 9A is a public hearing, so

138
00:10:39,519 --> 00:10:46,519
we'll open it up to the public this
time. And please come forward and state

139
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,519
your name.

140
00:10:47,680 --> 00:10:53,519
All right. Seeing none, we'll close that
public hearing. Move on to Oh, with

141
00:10:52,240 --> 00:11:00,720
that, we'll close public hearing and
then move on. I'll take a because public

142
00:10:57,279 --> 00:11:05,519
hearing. I'll make a motion for approval
of 9A.

143
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:12,600
» All right, mayor. I will make a motion
to approve or adopt ordinance 2026-007

144
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:19,200
amending the compensation schedule for
the statutory officers and appointed

145
00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:22,079
officers of Pleasant Grove City and
providing for an effective date.

146
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,959
» Great. We have a motion by Council
Rogers. Do we have a second?

147
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:30,560
» I'll second it.
>> Second by Council Member Phillips.

148
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,399
This will be a roll call. Uh, Council
Member Leone,

149
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,399
» yes.
>> Council member Rogers,

150
00:11:33,839 --> 00:11:36,399
» yes.

We'll open it for our public hearing at

155

public hearing and move it back up here.
I'll entertain a motion.

158
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:14,320
» Mayor, I'll go ahead and motion that we
uh accept or adopt uh ordinance 2026-8

159
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:18,000
enacting compensation increases for

reflecting market study salary increases

161
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:26,399
between 3 and 7% and providing for an
effective date. We have a motion by

162
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:29,920
Council Member Phillips. Do I have a
second?

163
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:35,360
» I'll second that. Second by Council
Member Rogers. This will be a roll call

164
00:12:32,639 --> 00:12:37,920
vote. Uh, Council Member Leone.

00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:40,000
» Um, Council Member Phillips.

00:12:38,399 --> 00:12:44,360
» And Council Member Rogers.
>> Yes.

167
00:12:40,560 --> 00:12:44,360
» Unanimous. Thank you.

168
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:56,560
» All right. Thank you, Scott. Um, moving
on to action items ready for vote. 10A

169
00:12:53,200 --> 00:13:00,560
to consider an ordinance 2026-00009
amending title 9 buildings and

170
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:05,040
construction chapter 8 fire code
adopting appendix B fire flow

171
00:13:02,560 --> 00:13:10,160
requirements for buildings appendix C
fire hydrant locations and distribution

172
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:13,200
and appendix D fire apparatus access
roads and appendix is that

173
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:18,639
» L
>> L okay L requirements for fire fighter

174
00:13:16,079 --> 00:13:22,560
air replacement systems in high-rise and
large footprint buildings for the

175
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:25,600
international fire code and providing
for an effective date.

176
00:13:23,839 --> 00:13:29,279
» Thank you, mayor, mayor, and council. As
discussed in the work session, this the

177
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:34,160
purpose of this ordinance is to amend
title 9, chapter 8, the fire code

178
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:38,240
adoption. Typically, we adopt the
international fire code by reference in

179
00:13:36,079 --> 00:13:43,360
our ordinance. It is not spelled out
specifically, and that's uh sufficient

180
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:47,440
under the state code. We have discovered
that in order to enforce certain of the

181
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:52,480
appendices, they need to be adopted
specifically. The fire department has

182
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:59,279
requested that the four um appendices
mentioned in the in the short title be

183
00:13:54,959 --> 00:14:03,760
adopted and the purpose would be to um
strengthen fire protection, enhance

184
00:14:01,519 --> 00:14:08,240
firefighter safety, improve emergency
response effectiveness, and align local

185
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:12,480
regulations with nationally recognized
best practices.

186
00:14:10,079 --> 00:14:16,639
Um I could explain all of those, but I
think the short title is pretty clear

187
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:19,839
about what each of those appendices um
covers. If you have any questions, I'm

188
00:14:18,560 --> 00:14:23,600
happy to answer.
>> Council, do you have any questions?

189
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,399
» I already asked them.
>> Yeah.

190
00:14:24,079 --> 00:14:29,760
» Thank you.
>> Okay. All right. Because these items

191
00:14:27,279 --> 00:14:36,959
ready for a vote, I'll entertain a
motion. Um, mayor, I'd like to make a

192
00:14:32,959 --> 00:14:39,920
motion that we adopt ordinance 2026-009
as read by you.

193
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,240
» Thank you. Well, I have a motion by
council member Rogers. Do I have a

194
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,680
second?
>> Second.

195
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:49,680
» Second by council member Leone.
Um, this will be a roll call on this

196
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,440
one. Council member Phillips,
>> yes.

197
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,120
» Council member Rogers,
>> yes.

198
00:14:51,839 --> 00:14:55,760
» And council member Leon,
>> yes.

199
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,440
» All right, it's unanimous. Thank you. Do
you have the next one, too?

200
00:14:56,959 --> 00:15:03,040
» Yes.
>> Okay, so um item 10B to consider

201
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:07,279
ordinance 2026-10
amending title 9 buildings and

202
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:11,600
construction chapter 8, fire code adding
subsection 2 adopting the international

203
00:15:09,199 --> 00:15:14,480
wildland urban interface code and
providing for an effective date.

204
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:20,000
» Thank you, mayor, mayor, and council.
This ordinance also amends title 9,

205
00:15:16,959 --> 00:15:25,920
chapter 8, the fire code to specifically
adopt the international wildland urban

206
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:32,000
interface code. As mentioned in the
warehouse clauses of the ordinance, um

207
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:38,079
house bill 48 of the 2024 Utah state
legislative session enacted provisions

208
00:15:34,639 --> 00:15:43,920
requiring counties and municipalities to
adopt the state wildland urban interface

209
00:15:41,199 --> 00:15:48,720
code. That adoption was actually delayed
because we were waiting for them to

210
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:53,759
finalize the WOOI map. You they did
finalize that map and you approved that

211
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:58,320
map a few weeks ago in city council and
now we need to adopt the code that goes

212
00:15:55,759 --> 00:16:05,040
with the map. The purpose of this is to
be in compliance with the state code.

213
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:10,639
And also the advantages are that it um
sets out whose responsibility uh for

214
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:15,040
fighting wfires
in the wildland urban interface area

215
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:20,720
which for Pleasant Grove City is our
east bench area um and the eastern

216
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:25,120
borders of the city. And it also
provides for a way for us to be

217
00:16:23,199 --> 00:16:30,000
reimbursed should we need to expend
manpower and services in fighting any

218
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:34,560
wildland fires in that area. That would
normally be um the responsibility of the

219
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:41,120
state or the county.
>> Great. Any questions?

220
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:46,959
» With that, I'll entertain a motion.
>> Mayor, I will make a motion that we

221
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:49,920
adopt ordinance 2026-010
as read by you.

222
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,639
» Thank you. A motion by council member
Rogers. Do we have a second?

223
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:56,160
» I'll second.
>> Second by council member Phillips. And

224
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,639
all those in favor?
>> I

225
00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:01,759
» I a roll call. It's an ordinance.
>> I think so. I don't show that it's a

226
00:17:00,959 --> 00:17:05,039
roll call on this one.
>> Yeah. Not all ordinances need to be a

227
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:08,400
roll call.
>> And so it looks like Oh, that's good.

228
00:17:07,039 --> 00:17:11,600
Looks like it's unanimous. So we're
good. You Well, you get to be up here

229
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:15,039
for a little bit tonight.
>> I am.

230
00:17:13,839 --> 00:17:19,839
» Tonight.
>> So, okay. Next one.

231
00:17:17,439 --> 00:17:23,600
The next one is uh ordinance number
2026-09.

232
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:28,000
It's a res or it's a resolution
actually, sorry, not an ordinance, a

233
00:17:25,120 --> 00:17:31,520
resolution um of the governing body
authorizing the mayor to execute an

234
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:36,000
interlocal cooperative agreement with
the North Utah County Water Conservancy

235
00:17:33,679 --> 00:17:40,400
District regarding the use and placement
of security cameras at Gro Creek and

236
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:46,240
Battle Creek basins. As explained in the
work session, um we currently have a

237
00:17:43,360 --> 00:17:50,960
master services agreement with uh flock
safety cameras. Um the police department

238
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:59,120
has utilized these cameras very
successfully in uh crime detection and

239
00:17:54,960 --> 00:18:04,240
crime uh solving activities. The um
North Utah County Water Conservancy

240
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:07,919
District is concerned about um criminal
mischief, graffiti, that type of thing

241
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:11,919
occurring at their two basins in Grove
Creek and Battle Creek. They approached

242
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:18,799
uh our public works department and our
police department requesting um that we

243
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:23,600
you allow them to use our master
contract with Flock to place two

244
00:18:20,559 --> 00:18:27,360
cameras, one at each basin. Because we
are an interlo because we are a

245
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:32,480
governmental agency and North Utah
County Water Conservancy District is a

246
00:18:29,679 --> 00:18:36,400
governmental agency. Uh we need to
memorialize these types of agreements

247
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:39,919
with an interlocal agreement. It's a
little bit of overkill in this

248
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:45,760
situation, but we're following the
rules. Basically, the interlocal

249
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:49,360
agreement just provides for the um
agreement of who's going to do what,

250
00:18:47,679 --> 00:18:52,960
what the responsibilities are between
Pleasant Grove City and the North Utah

251
00:18:51,120 --> 00:18:57,360
County Water Conservancy District with
regard to placement and payment for the

252
00:18:55,520 --> 00:19:00,400
cameras that are going to be deployed in
those two basins. Do you have any

253
00:18:59,679 --> 00:19:04,640
questions,
>> council? Do you have any questions for

254
00:19:01,679 --> 00:19:11,360
general counsel?
With that, I'll entertain a motion

255
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:18,000
for ordinance 2026-9.
>> Mayor, I'm happy to make a motion to

256
00:19:14,559 --> 00:19:21,280
adopt resolution or to adopt resolution
2026-09

257
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,919
as read by you.
>> We have a motion by Council Member

258

granting an electric utility franchise

265
00:19:54,960 --> 00:20:02,160
and general utility easement to Rocky
Mountain Power. U mayor and council, as

266
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:08,000
explained in the uh work session, this
is um granting Rocky Mountain Power

267
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:13,760
um utility easement to work in our
public rideways with their power lines.

268
00:20:10,559 --> 00:20:18,240
It is a um we have had an existing
franchise agreement with Rocky Mountain

269
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:23,840
Power for many, many years. This is
simply an extension of that agreement.

270
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:29,360
it expires
um every five to eight years and so

271
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:33,840
we're just replacing that. There are no
significant changes between the last one

272
00:20:31,919 --> 00:20:38,720
and this one that I'm aware of.
>> Great. Uh do we have any questions with

273

that? Then I'll entertain a motion for
ordinance 2026-11.

» Oh, okay. All right. Um Okay, then we'll
go ahead and move to mayor and council

312
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:14,960
business. Council member Leone, do you
have any great news for us this evening?

313
00:23:13,360 --> 00:23:19,600
» No, just wondering where we're at with
the pickle ball courts.

314
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:23,840
» Uh I need to send them an email. Uh
obviously they asked uh they sent us an

315
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:28,320
email asking us to reconsider on the
surface. uh majority of the council

316
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:32,799
wants to proceed with them tearing them
out and and uh putting them in. So, I

317
00:23:31,039 --> 00:23:35,919
just haven't followed up yet. I need to
send them an email and let them know

318
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:40,240
that's we're reiterating that's our
position. We are requesting anything

319
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:43,360
they give us is done in writing because
we don't know where this is going to

320
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:46,240
land as we work through this. We just
want to make sure everything's done

321
00:23:44,559 --> 00:23:48,400
official channels at this point.
>> So, can we make contact with them this

322
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,159
week?
>> Oh, yeah. I'll I'll I'll sign it

323
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,679
tomorrow.
>> All right. Thanks. That's all.

324
00:23:51,360 --> 00:23:58,159
» That's all. Okay. Um, we're going to
move to Council Member Phillips.

325
00:23:56,559 --> 00:24:03,200
» I don't have anything.
>> Okay. Uh, we had some great I'm going to

326
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:08,559
turn the time over to Council Member
Rogers, but we had some a great a great

327
00:24:05,919 --> 00:24:10,720
week and I I think yesterday, right? So,
go ahead.

328
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:15,679
» Yeah. No, I think it was a great month.
Really, Choose Kindness Month was

329
00:24:12,799 --> 00:24:19,679
February and there were a lot of events.
I one of the great things is a lot of

330
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:24,640
the businesses around town, you know,
they offer kind of the wearable coupon

331
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:29,279
stuff and so that sweater was was kind
of a cool thing to go around and kind of

332
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:34,159
get free little treats around. But one
of the highlights of choose kindness

333
00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:39,279
month was the choose kindness
scholarship that was offered at Posen

334
00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:45,600
Grove High School. It was offered with
in conjunction with Rogers and Russell

335
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:51,600
and also with the PG Lindon Chamber and
we were able to give out six different

336
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:57,279
scholarships and a total amount of
$5,500 which I think is pretty cool and

337
00:24:55,679 --> 00:24:59,840
uh we're just hoping that we're going to
be able to continue to grow that fund

338
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:04,960
and continue to offer those
scholarships. But yeah, so six different

339
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:07,840
uh high school seniors at Pleasant Grove
High School received uh some

340
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:12,080
scholarships to go towards their
continuing education. And we we got a we

341
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:15,520
had a little assembly where we were able
to go up and the pictures didn't turn

342
00:25:13,679 --> 00:25:19,360
out all that great. So then we got to
meet with them again at the high school

343
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,000
and uh
>> never have barcodes up on the screen

344
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:25,120
while you're doing pictures.
>> Yeah. having a QR code on your face

345
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:30,320
surprisingly doesn't look great in a
picture. But um but yeah, no, we got the

346
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:36,080
pictures re we retook them and and
anyway, we just have exceptional youth

347
00:25:33,120 --> 00:25:40,799
in our city that want to care for each
other. And I just love that February

348
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:45,440
gives us a chance to to kind of get out
and be kind and focus on that. And these

349
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:48,320
these youth wrote essays that really
showed that we have people in our

350
00:25:47,039 --> 00:25:52,799
community that are struggling and it
makes a difference when we're kind and

351
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:55,697
nice. So, I liked it. It was great.
>> Yeah. [applause]

352
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:06,240
» Um, yeah, coming up on 10 years, True
Kindness has been part of Pleasant Grove

353
00:26:03,919 --> 00:26:10,960
and so and it's come a long way and then
when we teamed up, we were in the main

354
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:15,919
hall and we decided last year that we
can do better and so I think we did this

355
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:20,240
year. It was great to see the the
seniors with a smile on their face uh

356
00:26:18,159 --> 00:26:25,039
being awarded that. It's just an amazing
experience. So, whatever we can do to

357
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:29,840
continue that on. Um, I don't have
really any items. I just wanted to say

358
00:26:27,120 --> 00:26:33,120
thank you to our city staff to
tremendous job that you do on a daily

359
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:37,840
basis. We, you know, we are a city of
services and we appreciate that the work

360
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:42,000
that you do continually to help our
residents and help our city become

361
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:46,640
better every day. So, thank you. It's
much appreciated from that. I I hear

362
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:50,559
from a lot and they come in and express
their thanks and and I I love to see

363
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,640
that all the time. Um
>> I wasn't done yet, mayor. What's that? I

364
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,960
wasn't done yet.
>> Oh, you weren't done. I can turn the

365
00:26:54,159 --> 00:26:57,200
time back over to you.
>> I Well, I didn't want to steal your

366
00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:01,360
thunder, but I just wanted to say some
of the ordinances we passed today, I

367
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:06,960
think reflect the quality of leadership
that we have in our city. And I am glad

368
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:12,720
uh that we have such great directors and
great um department heads that uh care

369
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:16,480
about our city and are really putting in
extraordinary effort. So I think that

370
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:21,120
passing those ordinances is definitely
well founded and and they and we're

371
00:27:19,039 --> 00:27:24,320
we're really lucky to have the quality
and talented people that we have. So I

372
00:27:22,799 --> 00:27:26,400
just wanted to make that was one thing I
wanted to say

373
00:27:24,799 --> 00:27:28,720
» that worked hand in hand right there.
>> You can give me more time if you want.

374
00:27:28,653 --> 00:27:31,520
[laughter]
>> Yeah. Let's we'll give you another few m

375
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,640
three minutes
>> just the just the PG basketball team but

376
00:27:33,679 --> 00:27:38,480
you already mentioned that that was
>> hey that was awesome I mean 26 and0 I

377
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:41,919
mean simply amazing
>> what a great team it's amazing

378
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:45,279
» so we'll like I said we'll recognize and
their schedule just didn't work out for

379
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:50,960
next council meeting but I do have an
idea and if the council wants to be part

380
00:27:47,120 --> 00:27:53,360
of it is uh we're going to treat them uh
from Chick-fil-A we're going to treat

381
00:27:52,159 --> 00:27:57,120
them to a lunch so if you want to be
part of that just let me know and we're

382
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,919
just we'll do it in this
>> I thought you were setting up a five on

383
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:04,640
five game with council.
>> Yeah, I think that would be ugly. They

384
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:07,679
would probably go 270 and and that. So,
>> would be a couple ACL tears and then

385
00:28:06,399 --> 00:28:12,080
we'd lose anyway. So,
>> yeah, it wouldn't be good. So, anyway,

386
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:16,559
um with that said, I'll I'll send that
out to you if you want to uh be part of

387
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:22,000
that. Just uh answer yes and we'll do it
right in this room back here. Um okay,

388
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:24,159
that's all we have. And look at that,
Scott. We're doing good.

389
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:28,640
» You did awesome.
>> Okay. All right. So, uh, with that, I'll

390
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:32,480
entertain a motion to adjourn our city
council tonight.

391
00:28:30,159 --> 00:28:34,799
» I make the motion to adjurnn.
>> A motion by Council Member Leone. Do I
