1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,680
Welcome to city council meeting tonight

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:04,360
everybody that's here in person and

3
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:06,080
those watching.

4
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:08,160
First of all I'd like to excuse Mayor

5
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:09,800
Mendenhall. He is out of town on

6
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,160
business and Councilman Marshall is out

7
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,560
of town on a family vacation. So they

8
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,720
won't be here tonight but we'll jump

9
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,080
right in. We have asked Dale Robinson

10
00:00:19,080 --> 00:00:21,640
our parks and rec director to offer a

11
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:23,400
prayer to get started and then

12
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,000
Councilman Euler will say the Pledge of

13
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:35,150
Allegiance.

14
00:00:35,160 --> 00:00:37,360
Our Father in heaven, humbly we bow our

15
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,040
heads before thee this evening

16
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:41,800
as we gather in this city council

17
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,040
meeting. We wish to express our

18
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:45,800
gratitude to thee

19
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,720
for the many blessings we receive at thy

20
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,840
hand, for this beautiful community that

21
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,320
we live in,

22
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:52,800
for the wonderful citizens that are

23
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,600
here, for their volunteer spirit,

24
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,840
grateful for these elected officials and

25
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:02,640
administration and staff who work diligently to continue to

26
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,960
preserve and build upon the wonderful

27
00:01:05,960 --> 00:01:09,200
heritage that has been set before us

28
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,840
from those that have gone on before.

29
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,880
We ask thy spirit to please

30
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,880
be with us this evening that the

31
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:19,320
decisions that are made might be in

32
00:01:19,320 --> 00:01:21,760
accordance with thy holy mind and will

33
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,400
and continue to further

34
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:25,520
this

35
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,840
the work that we need to do here in this

36
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,600
beautiful community.

37
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,200
We love thee. We are grateful for thy

38
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,160
son Jesus Christ and thank thee for the

39
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,560
blessings thou has given us and ask for

40
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,360
this prayer in the name of Jesus Christ.

41
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,760
Amen. Amen.

42
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,400
Please stand and join me in the Pledge

43
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,430
of Allegiance.

44
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,360
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the

45
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,080
United States of America and to the

46
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,160
republic for which it stands, one nation

47
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,160
under God, indivisible, with liberty and

48
00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,350
justice for all.

49
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,910
Thank you.

50
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,920
Okay.

51
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,400
We're going to open up first off to

52
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,160
public comment. So, anyone here from the

53
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:10,759
public that would like to address us,

54
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:12,440
just come up to the podium, let us know

55
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,959
your name, and we will have a 3-minute

56
00:02:14,959 --> 00:02:28,670
timer set.

57
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:29,800
All right.

58
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,160
Good evening, Council. Thank you for

59
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:32,640
opening this up to public comments. My

60
00:02:32,640 --> 00:02:34,160
name is Tanner Taguchi. I'm a resident

61
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,720
here in Spanish Fork.

62
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,720
I just came to kind of let the Council

63
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,800
know about this project that I'm working

64
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,240
on as part of the Gold Star Legacy

65
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:42,600
Foundation.

66
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,000
Uh we are doing a project at the Spanish

67
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,800
Fork City Cemetery over this Memorial

68
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,400
Day weekend. It started kind of as a

69
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,040
personal project of mine when I was a

70
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,680
teenager and it's kind of continued on

71
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,280
in that way ever since.

72
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,640
Uh this year we're trying to memorialize

73
00:02:56,640 --> 00:02:58,160
as many Gold Star veterans who are

74
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,280
interred or memorialized in the cemetery

75
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:01,560
as possible.

76
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,720
We uh have made some uh 12 Gold Star

77
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,760
banners that we plan to hang over their

78
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,480
headstones, as well as a typing up some

79
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,600
genealogical profiles, some short

80
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,400
uh short history of their life and

81
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,160
service in the armed forces of the

82
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:16,840
United States. And so, that's what will

83
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,200
also be at their graves as well uh over

84
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,280
Memorial Day weekend starting from

85
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,959
Thursday, the 21st in the morning, until

86
00:03:23,959 --> 00:03:26,120
the evening um on the 26th, the day

87
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:27,720
after Memorial Day.

88
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,320
Uh so, we we're trying to get the word

89
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:30,600
out. We're trying to help people

90
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:31,959
understand

91
00:03:31,959 --> 00:03:33,640
uh the importance of their sacrifice to

92
00:03:33,640 --> 00:03:35,640
our community and to the nation.

93
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:36,680
Uh

94
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,080
we have created some posters with

95
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,000
permission of Parks and Rec Department

96
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,560
and Justin Jolley at the cemetery. Uh

97
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,200
we're going to put some posters up over

98
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,800
by the cemetery that have a QR code so

99
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,200
that members of the public can access a

100
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,800
map that pinpoints specifically the 38

101
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,280
men in the cemetery who are Gold Star

102
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,160
veterans so they have a little better

103
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,040
time navigating and they don't have to

104
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,360
look it up on the cemetery map. So if

105
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,240
you have any questions I'm I'm happy to answer any. We're on a social media,

106
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,920
Facebook and Instagram and

107
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,320
I live I live close by. You can always

108
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,040
drop by and you could ask any questions

109
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,240
you want. Tanner, I'm curious

110
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,000
what got you interested in this? How did

111
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,959
you how did this start for you?

112
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:20,840
Well, when I was a teenager uh I'm from

113
00:04:20,840 --> 00:04:22,800
Carlsbad in California and every

114
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,600
Memorial Day I would drive down to Fort

115
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,120
Rosecrans which is the cemetery from Top

116
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:28,880
Gun if you're not familiar.

117
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,960
And um they have a very spectacular

118
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,320
program down there and I would do a

119
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,080
profile like this just when I was a just

120
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,960
for a veteran that I'd found. That's how

121
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,080
this started. I usually did one a year.

122
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,360
I did one in 2024 and 2025. Those are

123
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,280
these two men here. Um we've decided to

124
00:04:46,280 --> 00:04:47,919
kind of up the pace a little bit. We did

125
00:04:47,919 --> 00:04:53,080
10 this year. I think next year we can finish Spanish Fork Fork Cemetery

126
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:54,520
and then after that we're looking to

127
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,919
move on and continue the work in

128
00:04:56,919 --> 00:04:59,640
Benjamin, Payson, Santaquin Awesome.

129
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,200
That's awesome. Yeah, what a great

130
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,960
program. Yeah. Jack, I don't know if we

131
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,360
have anything planned to announce for

132
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,440
Memorial Day but it might be something

133
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:07,919
to use with our comm team to put

134
00:05:07,919 --> 00:05:09,080
something together just saying that this

135
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,880
is coming just to look for it cuz then

136
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,560
that would maybe get more people

137
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,560
interested in it. Yeah, I agree. Let's

138
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,760
be in touch in the next few days as we

139
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,600
can. Yeah, thank you so much for that.

140
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:19,840
>> Thanks, Tanner. Thanks, Rocky. Thanks as

141
00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:21,800
well. Tanner, one other question perhaps

142
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,480
for those as they watch this cuz we'll

143
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:24,640
have about a

144
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,600
thousand downloads and views a a minute

145
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,200
starting tomorrow. It's pretty high

146
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:29,720
watch.

147
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:30,840
>> Great.

148
00:05:30,840 --> 00:05:34,520
Uh no, but for those that do watch and those that look at this

149
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,919
maybe for the sake of clarity, what what

150
00:05:36,919 --> 00:05:39,160
do you use when you use the term Gold

151
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:40,720
Star? How are you defining that? How do

152
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,480
you use that? Maybe to clarify that for

153
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,400
anybody watching. Yeah, I think in the

154
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,600
future maybe we'll write a policy on it

155
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,480
and who's who's is to be included in

156
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:49,720
under that term, but I think

157
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,680
heuristically just anyone whose life was

158
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,080
cut short during their service

159
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,240
as a result of their service. You know,

160
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,680
so I understand there can be some fringe

161
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,440
cases, maybe someone who handled orange

162
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,680
crush for a aviation squadron and they

163
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,600
died of cancer later on. That's kind of

164
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,160
maybe a gray area, but typically anyone

165
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,600
who was killed in action, who died of

166
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,280
their wounds, or even in training

167
00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:14,720
accidents or of illness during their

168
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,950
service. Perfect. That term. Thank you.

169
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,160
so much for for having me for

170
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,310
your Thank you.

171
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:29,310
Okay, is there anyone else?

172
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,520
Hello. Um my name's Mandy Webster. Um I

173
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,200
grew up here in Spanish Fork and have

174
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,624
been a long-term resident here

175
00:06:35,624 --> 00:06:36,880
[clears throat] and I'm happy to call

176
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,840
here our home.

177
00:06:38,840 --> 00:06:40,840
Um we live right across the street from

178
00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:43,800
Sierra Bonita along Highway 6.

179
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,160
And in 2008 our family entered into an

180
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:49,000
agreement. Sorry. They gave um just

181
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,800
under 19 ft of land across our property

182
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,520
as well as our neighbors for other

183
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:55,760
houses

184
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,520
for a walking trail.

185
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,000
As homes were developed, um

186
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,480
those walking trails were put in with

187
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,320
those developments, but our homes were

188
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,400
already there when those when that

189
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:06,680
walking trail

190
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:07,600
um

191
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,360
from the other

192
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:13,710
properties near us were put in.

193
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,520
Under that agreement, so then our house

194
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,080
was able to connect to city water. That

195
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,160
was the agreement that took place in

196
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,440
there.

197
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,560
In that agreement where that 19 almost

198
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,800
19 ft of land was taken, there was an

199
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,040
old farm fence there.

200
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,560
We are literally one of the only homes

201
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,760
parallel to Highway 6 with developed

202
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,000
land that does not have this walking

203
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,830
trail finished and it's uncomplete.

204
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,240
The rest of the is under a future

205
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,480
planned and is farmland.

206
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,120
In that agreement, a wall is also

207
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:54,310
mentioned with this walking trail.

208
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:55,960
And if you look at the other surrounding

209
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:57,480
areas with this trail, you have a wall,

210
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,600
the trail, and then a chain-link fence

211
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,320
by Highway 6.

212
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,480
It has been 18 years

213
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,360
and neglecting these five homes along a

214
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:06,760
trail where the rest of the trail has

215
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,120
been completed along with other homes

216
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,080
has resulted in damage to the city's

217
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,280
property including that um

218
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,760
old farm

219
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:15,520
um

220
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,560
fence that has like barbed wire fencing

221
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,120
on it that the city acquired.

222
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:24,240
Um and as endangered uh as

223
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,040
devastated our property and endangered

224
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,280
the lives of children and many families

225
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:29,595
in the area.

226
00:08:29,595 --> 00:08:30,040
>> [snorts]

227
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:31,560
>> It has been a constant battle keeping

228
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,080
children from town homes off of our

229
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,440
property. They access our property using

230
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,120
the city-acquired land for the trail.

231
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,599
We have now put up a fence another fence

232
00:08:41,599 --> 00:08:44,080
on where our line would be,

233
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,960
but the city had already promised that

234
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:47,760
they would put a wall there.

235
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,360
And in 18 years, they have not.

236
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,160
On a May 14th, two children entered our

237
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,839
property off of this area that is city

238
00:08:55,839 --> 00:08:58,400
land and lit it on fire.

239
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,000
This would have been prevented had the

240
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,720
city not ignored the end of the trail

241
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,800
system where we are located and

242
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,200
the and the other five homes

243
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,400
with that contract.

244
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,640
We are now tasked with having to replace

245
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,000
the fencing for our horses and our goats

246
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,600
and the land is charred and debris needs

247
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,520
to be cleaned up. There is no charges

248
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,839
being filed against the children who lit

249
00:09:21,839 --> 00:09:24,680
it on fire despite um

250
00:09:24,680 --> 00:09:26,160
the extensive damage done to our

251
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:30,160
property and asking these children and the

252
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,920
parents of these children to stay off of

253
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,360
our property.

254
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,480
The burden is falling solely on our

255
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:36,680
family.

256
00:09:36,680 --> 00:09:41,320
I urge the city to take immediate and immediate action in completing this

257
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,280
stretch of land so that this doesn't

258
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,760
happen again and that people don't get

259
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,040
hurt. My grandfather

260
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,400
um ended up passing away from catching

261
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,040
on fire at our residence 8 years ago and

262
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:54,520
seeing this fire happen at our house

263
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,840
again was absolutely devastating and

264
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,960
knowing that these kids could have died

265
00:09:59,960 --> 00:10:02,320
was horrible.

266
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,160
So, please, if we could please get that

267
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:05,560
fencing done that was supposed to be

268
00:10:05,560 --> 00:10:07,440
done 18 years ago,

269
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:08,800
we could prevent this from happening

270
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:09,840
again.

271
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,840
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Mandy.

272
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,600
Thanks for coming and sharing that. And

273
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:14,880
Shelley, you got her contact

274
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,040

Did Okay.

276
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,040

00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,040

18 years is a long time.

289
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:44,800
Uh

290
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,600

00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,400
year just graduated today from Spanish

292
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,280
Fork High School. So, that's been a long

293
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:51,160
time.

294
00:10:51,160 --> 00:11:06,630
Um hold on just a second.

295
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,640
So, we'll we'll look at a couple of

Okay. Seeing none, I think it's time for

304
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,640
council comments.

305
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,960
Councilman Tuck, why don't we start with

00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,839

evening, so uh, my comments will be

00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:41,720
short. I just have a couple couple

313
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,640
things to share with the city. Um, first

314
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,280
of all, I had the opportunity to speak

315
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,160
this past week at the Spanish Fork uh,

316
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,880
University 101 graduation, and that was

317
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,600
really a fun experience. I was able to

318
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,200
be part with some others up here on the

319
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,840
stand uh, in the first cohort ever, and

320
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:00,880
now there's a couple hundred I think

321
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,360
uh, graduates. So,

322
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,040
uh, it was just fun. Amazing job. Kudos

323
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:05,640
to all those in the city who did an

324
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,920
amazing job putting on this production

325
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,520
over those 10 weeks. Um, the directors

326
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,360
especially, Jack, um,

327
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,120
and uh, and others. So, anyway, great

328
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:17,680
graduating class. I look forward to what

329
00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:19,720
comes next, you know, for this fall or

330
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,320
however that looks. So,

331
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:22,720
that was a lot of fun to be part of, and

332
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,960
then also,

333
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,520
and I'm sure others will mention this,

334
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,200

335
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,560

promoting health and wellness in Spanish

346
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,360
Fork City. The weather was great. It was

347
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,000
overcast. It wasn't too hot like some

348
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,400
years. It's a little warm, but it was

349

00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,320
off the ladder, so

354
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:05,640

Um, that What a fun day. That's been

00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,839
going on for almost 10 years, I guess. I

00:13:25,839 --> 00:13:27,280

00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,240
to help us keep fit both physically,

370
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,880
mentally, and all the other

371
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,560
things that we have going on in there.

372
00:13:40,560 --> 00:13:42,600
Dell, I was expecting to see you run

373
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,920
that mile and a half though, but we cuz

374
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,680
you got a shirt, too, so

375
00:13:48,680 --> 00:13:51,280
That's right. Um couple other things I

376
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,360
wanted to talk about is the YCC had

377
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,120
their final

378
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:56,880
meeting for the year.

379
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,560
Had the seniors get their cords for

380
00:13:59,560 --> 00:14:01,640
that. There has was mentioned just a

381
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,480
second ago, they're all graduating. I

382
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:04,920
think most graduations are today, so

383
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,080
congratulations to the class of 2026. Um

384
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,880
be smart on your graduation night and

385
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,720
don't do anything dumb. But

386
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,400
YCC applications are out there, so if

387
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,240
you have those or if you have children

388
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,080
that you would like to help to get

389
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,440
involved, there is a great opportunity

390
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,480
in our youth city council

391
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,920
to to be involved with service. This

392
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:28,360
Saturday they are having They've been

393
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:29,800
doing a competition we and I probably

394
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:30,960
did a poor job of announcing this.

395
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,200
They've been doing a competition with

396
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,360
Mapleton Youth City Council on who can

397
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,720
do the most service in 30 days.

398
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,200
Uh I'm not at liberty to say who has

399
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:41,560
won, but that'll be announced on

400
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,080
Saturday and I'll probably announce that

401
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,000
a lot next time, but

402
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,000
hopefully we're happy.

403
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,240
And last thing that I have is the

404
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,120
freedom walk that happened up at um

405
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,440
Canyon View Park. What an awesome event.

406
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,680
My kids this year are in fifth grade and

407
00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,240
so I was able to go up there and watch

408
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,480
and participate with them and then

409
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:02,760
the free

410
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,240
their legacy walk where they where they

411
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,080
are able to put the veterans that

412
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,440
they've been able to report out kind of

413
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,240
like what we talked about today.

414
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:10,960
Seeing three of our family members there

415
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,080
and just what an awesome thing that our

416
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,680
community puts on and lots of volunteers

417
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,160
like Dell when he said his prayer. We

418
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,560
have such great volunteers

419
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,640
in really any aspect of life that you

420
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,160
have a passion for, I think there's

421
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:26,400
probably a way that you could volunteer

422
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,240
in the city. So, thank you for those who

423
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,520
do that. And then I'm sure others will

424
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:31,520
talk about Memorial Day and other

425
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,120
things. So, that's all I got, Mayor.

426
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:33,600
Thank you.

427
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:34,560
>> Pro Tem.

428
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:35,320
Oof.

429
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,360
Oh, yeah, don't don't drink that. Messed

430
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,400
that up. Councilman Oyler. Thank you,

431
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:40,840
Mayor Pro Tem.

432
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,840
I just want to report on the animal

433
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,480
shelter board meeting that I attended

434
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,640
last week. The it was our budget meeting as we

435
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,280
prepare to approve the

436
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:55,840
2027 budget. Budget amounts went up just

437
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:57,400
$8,000

438
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,240
overall for the shelter this year.

439
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,480
Uh Spanish Fork's portion of that's gone

440
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:03,760
up

441
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,200
$9,804.

442
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:07,360
So,

443
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,721
it's going from 132,028

444
00:16:10,721 --> 00:16:10,840
>> [clears throat]

445
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:16,270
>> to 141,832.

446
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,320
And the way that the budget works at the

447
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,680
shelter, there are multiple cities that

448
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,600
are part of that, including Utah County

449
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:23,840
as well,

450
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,280
that that are part of the district.

451
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,240
And the way it works with the budget

452
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,800
each year is they allocate it based on

453
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,680
the number of animals that are turned

454
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,160
into the shelter out of each of those

455
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,760
areas. And so, Spanish Fork's

456
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,800
intake number went from 824

457
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,400
last year to 835.

458
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:47,800
So, just an increase of 11.

459
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,720
But other cities

460
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:50,600
um

461
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,440
Payson and a few others, their numbers

462
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,360
went down. So, because they went down,

463
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,400
we went up. Our portion of the budget

464
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:01,280
increased by almost $10,000. So, just a

465
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,000
reminder to everybody, and I say this

466
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,160
often, if you are a pet lover and if

467
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,079
you've got a pet at home,

468
00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:11,800
please be a responsible

469
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,160
pet owner and have your dogs and cats

470
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:15,720
spayed and neutered.

471
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,720
That's my message for you today.

472
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,560
That's all I've got. Thanks Councilman

473
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:21,480
Oiler.

474
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:22,839
We had a lot of good things as most

475
00:17:22,839 --> 00:17:25,520
everyone has recapped from the Chamber

476
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,800
of Commerce and Rotary Golf Tournament

477
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,360
to the Freedom Walk to the Fit City

478
00:17:29,360 --> 00:17:31,800
Fair. Lots of good things this month and

479
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,200
it's going to be a busy weekend. I was

480
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,960
asked by Richard Davis to let the

481
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,400
community know if you're interested in

482
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:39,960
going up to the

483
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,520
cemetery this Thursday at 3:00 p.m. They

484
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,080
do need help putting up all of the

485
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,560
crosses and I would suggest even being

486
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,320
early. I think some if you get there at

487
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,280
3:00 you might be late. But they're

488
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,840
really fast at getting those up and then

489
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,920
the Memorial Day program will be at our

490
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,800
cemetery on Monday at 10:30. That is

491
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:05,080
open to everybody and it's it's a really special time. I love the speaker

492
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,160
every year and to walk around and visit

493
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,120
with our veterans and and see just a lot

494
00:18:10,120 --> 00:18:15,160
of familiar faces up there and visit the graves. So again that's Memorial Day

495
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:16,600
at 10:30.

496
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,680
And a shameless plug again for Yard of

497
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,560
the Week. That's officially launched and

498
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:22,160
you can nominate yourself, your

499
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,560
neighbor, anyone in in the city of

500
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,320
Spanish Fork. The the Jotform is on our

501
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:28,720
website.

502
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,880
And then the library

503
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,200
I just wanted to let you know that the

504
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,200
summer reading program will start next

505
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,000
week and patrons can register now by

506
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,400
downloading the Beanstack app or coming

507
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,560
into the library. So they have a lot of

508
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,040
fun prizes

509
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,200
throughout the whole summer so we

510
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,000
encourage adults and children to

511
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,360
participate in the summer reading

512
00:18:50,360 --> 00:18:51,520
program.

513
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:52,960
And then I also just wanted to let the

514
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,880
community know that the Fiesta Days

515
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,600
calendar is live on the website. I'm

516
00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,360
already planning my things for July so

517
00:18:59,360 --> 00:19:00,440
I'm having to go on and be like, "Okay,

518
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,600
what night is the pyromusical?" and what

519
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,120
day is the children's day and what day

520
00:19:04,120 --> 00:19:05,680
is this? So

521
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,920
kind of get your calendars filled and

522
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,520
speaking of the pyromusical I saw Mike

523
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,040
Clayson last week and he is the one that

524
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,320
really oversees the pyro musical and

525
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,560
raises all of the money that that

526
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:23,480
pyro show is all funded by sponsors. So

527
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,960
if any business or individual family

528
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,960
would like to put some money into that,

529
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,720
reach out to Mike Clayson. I know he

530
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,000
would be happy to help you.

531
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,560
Um kind of have a presence and some

532
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,240
recognition with that.

533
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,120
So I think that's everything. You guys

534
00:19:39,120 --> 00:19:40,720
good? Yes.

535
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,000
Okay, then moving on. Are there any

536
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,600
staff reports tonight? Yeah, if we could

537
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,200
Mr. Pierce

538
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,600
No, whoa, whoa. Stay at the chair.

539
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:52,600
I'm going to grab that. If you get up

540
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,320
there, then you're like settling in for

541
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:55,920
a half hour staff report.

542
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:56,920
>> I've just got to advance [laughter]

543
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,560
slides. All right.

544
00:19:58,560 --> 00:19:59,840
Just

545
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:01,938
I don't cut Jack, but

546
00:20:01,938 --> 00:20:02,920
>> [laughter]

547
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,080
>> Well, your picture's already made its

548
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:05,520
way in there, I'm sure. I know. That's

549
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,240
ancient history. Cuz this doesn't work

550
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:08,480
for me here.

551
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,720
There's [laughter] just a few slides. Um

552
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,240
Will you turn your microphone on? Thank

553
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:13,720
you.

554
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,240
I just wanted to add a few slides. I

555
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,280
think our communications team has done a

556
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,600
great job getting the word out on social

557
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,440
media about spring cleanup and the

558
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:22,800
vouchers.

559
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,960
Um but we wanted to

560
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:26,520
just walk through quickly, remind

561
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,920
everyone that that's going on right now.

562
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,200
There's a little less than 2 weeks left

563
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:32,920
in that. If your yard is starting to

564
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:34,880
look like the picture here,

565
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,240
um we'll help you.

566
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:38,480
Um

567
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,120
I just wanted to walk through how you

568
00:20:40,120 --> 00:20:42,400
get the vouchers. If there are those

569
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:43,680
wondering,

570
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,000
uh you can see the URL up on the screen

571
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:52,800
there for this webpage. You can see the cleanup goes through May 30th.

572
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,760
And there is that red button that says

573
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,320
get spring cleanup vouchers. If you

574
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,240
click on that, it'll

575
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,480
bring you to a webpage that looks like

576
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,240
this. And this is small on here, but

577
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:05,920
um it'll be available for people to look

578
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,480
at. You need your utility account number

579
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,480
and your last name. And once you put

580
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,480
those two things in,

581
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,360
and there's some frequently asked

582
00:21:14,360 --> 00:21:17,360
questions there and and certainly

583
00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:20,080
residents can call in and get help with

584
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,480
those things if needed. But once you

585
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,040
enter that, you'll get a voucher looking

586
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,360
something similar to this

587
00:21:26,360 --> 00:21:28,760
that gives you the ability

588
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:29,960
to

589
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,920
go use the transfer station up to $10,

590
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,160
three vouchers of $10 12.

591
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,720
I thought it's 12. I think it's I'm

592
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,280
sorry. This is an old slide. It is 12.

593
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:41,040
Thank you, Seth.

594
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:42,280
>> Yeah.

595
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,760
Make sure you bring your photo ID

596
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,040
cuz they will look for that.

597
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,160
And here's the address of the transfer

598
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,440
station for those who aren't aware up on

599
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,720
the north end of town and you'll enter

600
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,480
there off 3450 north

601
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:58,880
and they'll help walk you through it.

602
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,240
So.

603
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:01,800
The lines move quick, too. There was a

604
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,200
big line on Saturday, but it was it was

605
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:05,880
moving quick. Yeah, with the new

606
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:07,920
facility, they boy, they get you in and

607
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,720
out of there really really fast. So.

608
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,680
Okay. Thank you.

609
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:14,240
Thanks, Corey.

610
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:15,560
>> Slide button one more time. Isn't there

611
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,200
another picture? No, I think I think

612
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,680
we're done. Jack was kind.

613
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:24,360
What about Spanish Fork 101?

614
00:22:24,360 --> 00:22:27,480
Jordan Hells on property tax education.

615
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,200
I thought this would be Slaymaker.

616
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:31,520
Oh, Slaymaker, do you want to come up

617
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:32,560
and do

618
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,080
property tax education?

619
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,280
Are you sure?

620
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:37,280
Okay.

621
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,440
A lot of the property tax goes to the police officers.

622
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,680
>> of it. It is. All of it.

623
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,000
100%. [laughter]

624
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,280
And then some.

625
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,960
They do appreciate it, for sure.

626
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,880
Um, we presented the tentative budget

627
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,895
last council meeting

628
00:22:52,895 --> 00:22:52,920
>> [snorts]

629
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,000
>> and it was noted that maybe we should

630
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,000
include some information on property

631
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,600
taxes. So, here I am.

632
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,600
Um, so how does Spanish Fork's property

633
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,960
tax rate compare?

634
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,160
This chart shows some neighboring cities

635
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:07,880
and the various tax rates of those

636
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,520
cities and actually the average home

637
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,440
value as well. So, when you take

638
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,040
the tax rate times the home value

639
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,640
and then the taxable value is less than

640
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,120
the average home value for those people

641
00:23:19,120 --> 00:23:21,120
that if it's a primary residence, you

642
00:23:21,120 --> 00:23:23,680
only pay taxes on 55% of the value. You

643
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,120
get a 45% exemption.

644
00:23:26,120 --> 00:23:27,440
So, you take the tax rate times the

645
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,440
taxable value and you get that

646
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,920
average annual property tax and you can

647
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,840
see ours is around $270 on average. You

648
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:37,000
can see how that compares to some of

649
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,160
these neighboring cities. So,

650
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,120
we are on the the lower end here.

651
00:23:42,120 --> 00:23:45,510
Um, yeah.

652
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,080
Um, this is showing pretty much the same

653
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:49,680
information just a little bit

654
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:51,920
differently. Um,

655
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:52,680
yeah.

656
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:53,720
So,

657
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,200
our residents get to a lot for their

658
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,400
property tax. Um, there's a lot of

659
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,760
services that are provided.

660
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,960
Jack, let me have you go to this

661
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:04,040
uh

662
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:05,760
link here.

663
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,880
Um, so if you go to spanishfork.org/tax,

664
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:09,360
it'll take you to this property tax

665
00:24:09,360 --> 00:24:10,800
calculator. I think we came out with

666
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,400
this couple years ago. I think I updated

667
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,400
it last year. And this has 2025's uh

668
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,280
numbers, but we will update it once

669
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,720
2026's numbers come out.

670
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,040
Um, the average property value in

671
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,720
Spanish Fork is $498,450.

672
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,320
Um, you can there's a little drop down

673
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,200
there. You can say if you are primary

674
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,360
residential property or not and you can

675
00:24:32,360 --> 00:24:35,280
change the value um if you want there to

676
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:36,640
match your value and then it will show

677
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:37,760
you

678
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,480
um your tax bill and where those tax

679
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,880
dollars go. So, this pie chart shows all

680
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:45,440
the taxing entities that are going to be

681
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:46,960
on your tax bill.

682
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,760
So, about 75% of the taxes go to Nebo

683
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:53,280
School District. Um, about 10% come to

684
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,520
the city and about 10% go into Utah

685
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:56,880
County.

686
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,200
Um,

687
00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,280
yeah.

688
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,840
And if you'll change that amount Jack

689
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,480
back to 498 450, which is the average

690
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,320
amount, we can see what an average

691
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,960
property tax bill looks like.

692
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,520
Um, so it's about $2,700 in total.

693
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,520
Um, so $270 of that comes to special

694
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,400
work. And then this bottom chart shows

695
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,080
that a lot of that does in fact go to

696
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:22,400
the police.

697
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,080
Um, so about $75 on the average property

698
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:26,440
tax bill.

699
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,440
Uh, about $60 a year go into the rec

700
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:30,680
center debt.

701
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:34,040
Uh, parks and rec, $55.

702
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:35,760
Our other friends in public safety, fire

703
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,400
and EMS at 37. And then library and

704
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,160
admin both are around $21 each.

705
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,400
Um, if you take this amount and divide

706
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,080
it by 12, the monthly amount is about

707
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,120
$23 a month, which is about what you pay

708
00:25:48,120 --> 00:25:49,200
for

709
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,400
a black and a blue can together, or your

710
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,640
PI by itself, or drinking water by

711
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:55,480
itself. And I think that kind of helps

712
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,280
put in relation to how much you're

713
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,000
paying in property tax compared to some

714
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,880
of these other services that we provide.

715
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:03,680
Um,

716
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,720
yeah. Any questions on on this tool?

717
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,040
It's awesome. I love this. Will you

718
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,600
be sure to add it to our

719
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,680
tax document? Not our tax document, our

720
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,120
budget document. Yeah. We could uh, we

721
00:26:17,120 --> 00:26:19,440
could have a a page in there that

722
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,280
>> and include that? People could

723
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,600
have some data maybe.

724
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,600
Is that hard to do? I'm trying to

725
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,040
understand

726
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,080
Do you want this page linked?

727
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,040
>> I would like the comparison. the

728
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:32,600
comparison to the other cities

729
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:34,760
specifically. Sorry. Okay.

730
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,520
Yeah. Yeah, we can do that.

731
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,000
Jack, if you'll go back to the the

732
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,880
slide.

733
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,600
Sorry, that was not a look of no. It was

734
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,600
a look of

735
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,640
Okay.

736
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,840
Um, so I think the biggest misconception

737
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,200
that people have with property taxes is

738
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,320
that when the property tax value goes up

739
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,400
that their bill automatically goes up

740
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:02,230
and that's just not the way it works.

741
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,560
With sales tax that is the way it works.

742
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,320
If you pay $4 a gallon for

743
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,000
a for a gallon of milk you're going to

744
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,360
pay you know, $0.29 and then next week

745
00:27:13,360 --> 00:27:15,880
if you go and it's $5 that tax rate is

746
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,560
the same. So you're going to pay more

747
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,120
the next time if the if the product

748
00:27:21,120 --> 00:27:23,200
if the value goes up. That is not the

749
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,520
case with property taxes.

750
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:26,680
When the property value goes up the

751
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:28,560
property rate goes down and the property

752
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,120
tax paid remains the same.

753
00:27:31,120 --> 00:27:33,160
Unless the city council chooses to set

754
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,360
the rate higher. So the last time the

755
00:27:35,360 --> 00:27:37,120
council did a property tax increase was

756
00:27:37,120 --> 00:27:38,920
in 2022

757
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,040
to help finance the rec center debt.

758
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:44,440
So

759
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:46,080
this is the fourth year in a row in

760
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:47,880
which we're proposing that we don't have

761
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,520
a property tax increase.

762
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,320
But if the value goes up, so in this

763
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,320
case if you have a value of a home at

764
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,480
400,000 the tax rate was at you know,

765
00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:00,280
0.1% and they pay $400 a year.

766
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,160
And if the value goes up to 500,000 the

767
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,400
tax rate would have to come down to make

768
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:05,520
sure that

769
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,960
the same amount of money is uh

770
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:09,720
paid to the city.

771
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,320
That's a process known as truth in

772
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,120
taxation that causes that rate to go

773
00:28:15,120 --> 00:28:17,400
down when the value goes up.

774
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,600
Part of the truth in taxation process is

775
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:20,880
that if we do

776
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,800
propose a tax increase that we have to

777
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,800
do a public noticing and hold a public

778
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,120
hearing.

779
00:28:26,120 --> 00:28:28,640
Yeah.

780
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,680
so this just explains

781
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,080
further explains that difference there.

782
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,480
This is our property tax since 1995 it

783
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,480
was almost double what it is now.

784
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,680
And that is because of

785
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,520
that uh truth in taxation where the as

786
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:51,200
the values go up, the rate goes down.

787
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,560
Uh so, the property tax calculation is

788
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,160
that value times the tax rate and any

789
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:57,600
exemption that may go into it. And as

790
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,360
that valuation goes up, the rate goes

791
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:00,400
down.

792
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,480
Does not capture inflation.

793
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:04,600
Um

794
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,840
Yeah, the property tax the property

795
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,760
value is set by the county assessor. I

796
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,080
think most of the time people want their

797
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:11,760
value to be high.

798
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,200
Um [snorts] this is the one time where

799
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,840
you want your value to be low so that

800
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,600
your taxes will be lower. Um each

801
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,320
taxing entity has its own tax rate and

802
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,240
they have control of their own tax rate.

803
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:25,240
We don't have control of the school

804
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:26,480
district's rate. The school district

805
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:27,840
doesn't have control of our rate. We

806
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:29,360
don't have control of the county's rate.

807
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,560
They're all set independently of each

808
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,440
other. But and when you get your total

809
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,440
your tax bill, it includes all of those

810
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:41,110
different tax rates, right?

811
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,480
And this is a social media post we did I

812
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,240
think about 6 months ago um showing the

813
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,440
average property tax amount over the

814
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,040
last 4 years.

815
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,360
Um you can see it was 282, 279, 271,

816
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,160
270. One thing that does happen is you

817
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,120
have fluctuation in commercial values

818
00:29:58,120 --> 00:29:59,640
compared to residential values. You

819
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,280
know, commercial might go up 20% one

820
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,360
year and residential would only go up

821
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,200
15% and then you might see what has

822
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,200
happened here where the residential

823
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,480
bills go down a little bit.

824
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,200
Um the city's guaranteed the same amount

825
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:13,440
of money

826
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,160
regardless of what happens with the

827
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,440
values, but you can have

828
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,600
um some people's bill go up because

829
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,240
their neighbors'

830
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:22,840
values went down and their value went

831
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,120
up. So, you get some minor fluctuations

832
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:26,440
there.

833
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,840
Um but hopefully this has been uh

834
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:30,880
educational for everyone. Any questions

835
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:31,840
on

836
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,040
Jack, can you go back to the city

837
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,680
comparisons for me, please?

838
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,080
And Jordan, while we're looking at this

839
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,240
screen, one more. Yep, that one. That

840
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:40,720
one would be great.

841
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:42,560
Can you talk a little bit, Jordan, maybe

842
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,320
about how sales tax revenues in a city

843
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:50,960
help offset property tax? Yeah. Um

844
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:52,600
those taxes both end up in the general

845
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,880
fund, right? So, if sales taxes are not

846
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,000
performing well, there's more pressure

847
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,040
on property tax.

848
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:00,400
And sales tax

849
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,400
the rate can only go up to that 1%.

850
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:05,080
Um so, once you're at that 1%, which I

851
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:06,520
think every city

852
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,280
in the state is at, um you

853
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,440
lose control to raise more sales tax,

854
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,760
right? Property tax is the one lever

855
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:16,360
that you can pull to generate more

856
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,640
revenue when you need more officers.

857
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:20,680
Um

858
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,800
so, when you look at these uh bedroom

859
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,480
communities that don't have a great

860
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:26,960
commercial base,

861
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:28,960
I think that plays into their property

862
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,120
tax rate. Um

863
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:32,480
and you look at those communities that

864
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,280
do have a a good uh commercial base,

865
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,000
there's less pressure on the property

866
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:38,160
tax.

867
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,000
Um so,

868
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:40,840
yeah,

869
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:42,760
it we have I tell people, you know, we

870
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,400
can't put a uh

871
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,400
a toll on Main Street for people that

872
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,120
live south of us, but I think a lot of

873
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,720
them do shop here in town, so hopefully

874
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,720
they're paying for that wear and tear on

875
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:53,640
the roads here in town.

876
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,040
Right. Yeah, I think it's

877
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:57,880
good time to put a plug in for our

878
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,600
community development team and recognize

879
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,280
the work that they do to help get

880
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,480
businesses in Spanish Fork

881
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,440
is beneficial to all of us. I know a lot

882
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,280
of times we complain a little bit about

883
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,680
maybe some traffic on 10th North or over

884
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:13,440
in the Canyon Creek area because of the

885
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,280
commercial, but having the commercial in

886
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,200
Spanish Fork helps keep our property tax

887
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:23,830
rates low. It does indeed.

888
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:24,320
Thank you.

889
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:25,800
>> That was great. Thanks, Jordan. Yeah,

890
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,480
thanks, Jordan.

891
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,280
All right. Next up is consent items. Can

892
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,630
I get a motion on that?

893
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,680
I move to approve the consent items A

894
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,080
through C.

895
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:37,840
I have [clears throat] a motion by

896
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,160
Councilman Carden. Second. Second by

897
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:44,800
Councilman Euler. All in favor, say yes.

898
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,720
Okay, next we have a public hearing.

899
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,280
And we have David Mann. This is the zone

900
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,240
changing map for public facilities for

901
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,520
properties that are part of Station 61

902
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,920
or the Argyle Substation sites.

903
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,160
Uh yeah, so you can

904
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,270
um

905
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:04,280
really quick, this is where we're

906
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,760
talking about where the new fire station

907
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:08,920
is. The ground's been broken, uh

908
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:10,920
construction is underway.

909
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,360
Um part of that is moving the existing

910
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:17,117
substation to the southwest corner.

911
00:33:17,117 --> 00:33:17,280
>> [clears throat]

912
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,440
>> When this was being reviewed,

913
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,400
we realized that some of the properties

914
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,880
still had either a residential or

915
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,280
residential office zoning designation.

916
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,080
Um

917
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:31,960
so when this was presented at the

918
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:33,560
planning commission, I think there was

919
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:35,800
some slight uh confusion about the

920
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,040
timing of things and what a zone uh

921
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,760
allows with regards to uh municipal

922
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,040
services.

923
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,280
So municipal facilities in our code um

924
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:50,240
is allowed as permitted use in any zone.

925
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,320
So whether or not these this zone change

926
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:54,880
takes place,

927
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,480
it would still fall uh fall in line with

928
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,720
what is being constructed there.

929
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,400
So this is more of a a cleanup to make

930
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,720
the zoning map match what is going to be

931
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,000
built there.

932
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,800
Um and it follows the land use

933
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,440
designation.

934
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,639
Uh once again, that's the site plan, but

935
00:34:12,639 --> 00:34:14,720
pretty straightforward, cut and dry uh

936
00:34:14,720 --> 00:34:16,040
proposal here.

937
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,000
Good explanation.

938
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,399
Thanks, David. Yeah, I was wanting that

939
00:34:20,399 --> 00:34:21,840
clarified. I know there was some

940
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:23,879
confusion and questions in the planning

941
00:34:23,879 --> 00:34:26,480
and commission meeting. And I think

942
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,240
this says it perfectly that it it just

943
00:34:28,240 --> 00:34:30,040
cleans it up, but we didn't have to do

944
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,440
it. Correct. Correct? It's just

945
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,360
straightening out some lines and we do this

946
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:38,639
quite regularly. I mean, I I know that

947
00:34:38,639 --> 00:34:40,000
there's been times I've served that

948
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,040
we've done that. Seth, is there any more

949
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:42,679
that you'd [clears throat] want to add

950
00:34:42,679 --> 00:34:43,159
to that?

951
00:34:43,159 --> 00:34:44,639
>> Yeah, I do actually. I'd asked Jack to

952
00:34:44,639 --> 00:34:46,840
go back a slide.

953
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,320
Um the process to change a zone takes

954
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,440
at least what would you say, David?

955
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,480
45 days by the time you go through the

956
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,720
DRC, then a the notice for a public

957
00:34:57,720 --> 00:35:00,280
hearing with the planning commission and

958
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:01,840
then notice for a public hearing with

959
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,440
the city council.

960
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:03,920
I'd say the same.

961
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:05,720
>> Fair to say?

962
00:35:05,720 --> 00:35:09,120
We didn't own all the property in

963
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,320
this inside of this zone change until

964
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,560
the end of March.

965
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,080
We don't typically put the public

966
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,480
facilities zone on private property. Is

967
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:19,160
that fair to say both David and Vaughn?

968
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:20,040
Like

969
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,960
it's actually probably a death sentence

970
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,160
in terms of the the usability of a

971
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:25,880
property.

972
00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:27,880
If we if we go through a process to put

973
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,000
the public facilities zone on private

974
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,520
property,

975
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:33,640
so we don't typically do that until it's

976
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,120
owned. We didn't own some of the parcels

977
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:41,000
in this until the end of March.

978
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,160
we go to a planning commission meeting

979
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:43,920
the 1st of April. We wouldn't have hit

980
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,520
the timetable to hit the 1st of April.

981
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,000
So, the first time that it could have

982
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,360
gone to the city or sorry, to the

983
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:50,760
planning commission. If it doesn't go to

984
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:51,800
the planning commission, it doesn't go

985
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,280
to the city council.

986
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:54,520
So, the first time it actually could go

987
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:55,880
to the planning commission was the first

988
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:57,640
council meeting in May.

989
00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,160
In order to do it all at once, we could

990
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,440
have done it in We could have done some

991
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,080
parcels and then other parcels, but

992
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,080
it's not necessary as David said because

993
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,320
the facilities, a substation, a fire

994
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:13,480
station, those can be in any zone.

995
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:14,520
Um

996
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,600
but from my perspective, uh it is better

997
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,320
to have these facilities

998
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,400
in the public facilities zone because it

999
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,280
is very clear, but it's also very

1000
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,240
limiting.

1001
00:36:27,240 --> 00:36:28,720
I would like

1002
00:36:28,720 --> 00:36:31,400
to have this all be one parcel as well,

1003
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,400
but it was it will cost it will actually

1004
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,080
cost us more money than it's worth to

1005
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:36,320
have it all become one parcel. So,

1006
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:37,720
that's not a good use of public

1007
00:36:37,720 --> 00:36:39,360
resources, right?

1008
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,240
Um and so, I think it's important to

1009
00:36:41,240 --> 00:36:43,320
understand that there's nothing

1010
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,240
uh underhanded or untoward. Uh this is a

1011
00:36:46,240 --> 00:36:48,920
matter of of

1012
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:50,920
timing and expediency.

1013
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,320
Uh it's critical that I think anybody

1014
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,840
that thinks this was out of step to

1015
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,640
understand that the facilities that are

1016
00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,760
here could be there in the current zone

1017
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:01,520
that was

1018
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:03,760
or that is prior to if you if you

1019
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:05,960
proceed to uh enact the zone change that

1020
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,560
is proposed.

1021
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,400
Um but

1022
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,240
now the entire project, if you if you

1023
00:37:12,240 --> 00:37:14,040
approve this zone change, the entire

1024
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:15,920
project will be under one zone, which is

1025
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,960
the right uh right way to do it.

1026
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,000
Hopefully, that adds a little bit more

1027
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:21,680
color as well. Yep. Thank you. I just

1028
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,680
wanted that super clear moving forward,

1029
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:25,320
too. So.

1030
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,000
Great explanation. Thanks for your time

1031
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,360
on that. Sure.

1032
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,560
Okay. Any questions? Can I get a motion

1033
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,790
to go into public hearing?

1034
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,200
Move that we go into public. Yeah,

1035
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:37,800
public hearing. Move that we go into

1036
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,040
public hearing for this item.

1037
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,200
Motion by Councilman Euler. Second.

1038
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:43,720
by Councilman Tuck. All in favor,

1039
00:37:43,720 --> 00:37:44,960
say yes. Yes.

1040
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:46,200
>> Yes.

1041
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,560
Anyone like to address us?

1042
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,080
Okay. Seeing none, can I get a motion to

1043
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,840
go out of public hearing? So moved.

1044
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,040
Motion made by Councilman Carden.

1045
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,000
Second. Second by Councilman Euler. All

1046
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,200
in favor, say yes. Yes.

1047
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,520
Okay. Yes, the only question,

1048
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,800
Dave, that I've got on this is looking

1049
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:05,400
at the map,

1050
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,520
we've got our parking lot just outside

1051
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,720
in front of the library that's not been

1052
00:38:10,720 --> 00:38:13,960
zoned public facilities. I don't know if

1053
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,640
at some point we want to clean that up.

1054
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,360
Same thing. Yeah, we certainly could.

1055
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,880
So, yeah, this might be an opportunity

1056
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,920
to kind of take a closer look at all the

1057
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,240
city-owned properties, make sure that

1058
00:38:26,240 --> 00:38:28,920
you know, what what is there is is being

1059
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,360
referenced in the zone. Yeah, so at some

1060
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,080
point, that's another example of a

1061
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:36,720
property the city owns that currently

1062
00:38:36,720 --> 00:38:38,440
doesn't meet the

1063
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,520
or isn't zoned for its current use, but

1064
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,000
probably should be cleaned up at some

1065
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:43,480
point in the future. So. And I think

1066
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,040
it's important to make sure you

1067
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:46,800
understand, it is zoned for its current

1068
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,800
use. Parking lot can be It's a municipal

1069
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,280
service. It can be in that zone.

1070
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:53,720
Again,

1071
00:38:53,720 --> 00:38:56,760
we as the zoning authority, we you, we

1072
00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:58,280
have given ourselves the ability to have

1073
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,920
municipal services in any zone.

1074
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:02,920
So, it is

1075
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:03,640
allowed.

1076
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,160
>> Allowed for what it is. It's It's not inappropriate to have it be

1077
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:08,320
that.

1078
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:14,030
Um Bonnie, do you want to add anything?

1079
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:18,120
So, I I just don't want to make I don't want to have the any thoughts of

1080
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:22,080
it shouldn't be It's allowed in municipal service is

1081
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:23,720
allowed in

1082
00:39:23,720 --> 00:39:27,040
any zone. Zone. Commercial, industrial,

1083
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:28,480
residential.

1084
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:29,840
Okay.

1085
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,240
Thank you. Any other questions?

1086
00:39:32,240 --> 00:39:34,800
Okay, can I get a motion on this item?

1087
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:36,120
I move to approve the ordinance to

1088
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:37,280
approve

1089
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,440
the ordinance for the proposed station

1090
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,480
61 and Hargrove substation zone change

1091
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,600
based on the findings in the staff

1092
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,720
report. I have a motion by Councilman

1093
00:39:45,720 --> 00:39:47,160
Carden.

1094
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,120
Second. A second by Councilman Took. All

1095
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,280
in favor say yes or it's probably a roll

1096
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,480
call. Yep. This is a roll call vote.

1097
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,280
Councilman Euler? Yes. Councilman

1098
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,480
Carden? Yes. Councilman Took? Yes.

1099
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:00,960
Councilwoman Beck? Yes. Okay, that

1100
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:02,600
passes.

1101
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,640
Moving on to new business. A ordinance

1102
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:08,520
to adopt the land use element of the

1103
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,120
comprehensive general plan.

1104
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,000
David, welcome back.

1105
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,000
It's great to be here.

1106
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:16,320
Um

1107
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:17,160
Jack, if you could

1108
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:21,040
>> presentation Yeah, same presentation.

1109
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:22,120
Um

1110
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,880
So, after uh a great discussion that was

1111
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,080
held at the last uh City Council meeting

1112
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,040
about the Land Use Element and things

1113
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,640
that maybe there was some confusion on

1114
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,280
or needed some clarification.

1115
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:36,800
Uh I think staff got some really good

1116
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:40,400
direction and has made the necessary

1117
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:43,320
edits to bring it back before you now

1118
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,640
uh in hopes that uh we could see this

1119
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,960
adopted at some at uh

1120
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,280
a a current time.

1121
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,480
Um so, one of the things that was

1122
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,040
changed was the uh there are two

1123
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,840
properties that owned by the city where

1124
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:00,800
there's this one that's has a

1125
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,080
sub-substation next to I-15

1126
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:07,520
um as well as the area that's to the

1127
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,000
east of the fairgrounds.

1128
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,600
Um those were all added or either added

1129
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:18,160
or expanded um to be to fall under the public facilities land use

1130
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,440
designation. Just once again for

1131
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,760
consistency.

1132
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:24,280
Um

1133
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:26,680
Uh probably the one of the biggest uh

1134
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,880
topics was this uh map that has now been

1135
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,600
included. It's on page 41.

1136
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,680
Um and I think it uh

1137
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,720
makes a nice uh finishing point on that

1138
00:41:37,720 --> 00:41:40,440
first section of the Land Use Element

1139
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,320
showing the designations with the uh

1140
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:46,120
APAs that are within the policy boundary

1141
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,640
um overlaid. So, that's there as a as a

1142
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:51,720
reference to anyone that is curious

1143
00:41:51,720 --> 00:41:55,080
about how those two uh principles and

1144
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,504
those two elements uh coexist.

1145
00:41:58,504 --> 00:42:01,230
>> [snorts]

1146
00:42:01,240 --> 00:42:04,920
» Um let's see. And then the other the uh

1147
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:09,560
page nine from draft five was removed um

1148
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,360
due to some confusion about uh its

1149
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,520
purpose or what it was trying to uh

1150
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,320
explain as part of the the land use

1151
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,760
element. Um and so that was distilled

1152
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:27,040
into one strategy that was added uh under goal two.

1153
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:28,240
And then

1154
00:42:28,240 --> 00:42:30,560
probably the most extensive uh editing

1155
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:34,720
was done on the focus growth

1156
00:42:34,720 --> 00:42:40,160
uh center uh principle that was in the document five.

1157
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,360
Um that was changed to focus study area

1158
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,440
with an emphasis on

1159
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,960
studying um key point parts of the city

1160
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,200
where uh

1161
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:55,640
future growth uh would be best served

1162
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:57,880
and uh to better understand what

1163
00:42:57,880 --> 00:42:59,240
infrastructure

1164
00:42:59,240 --> 00:43:01,480
um would need to take place, would need

1165
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:03,360
to be constructed in order to see that

1166
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,960
growth happen at those locations.

1167
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:07,880
Um so I'd be happy to answer any

1168
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,080
questions about that or I can proceed

1169
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:14,440
with uh the discussion on the growth boundary

1170
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,560
at this time.

1171
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:18,120
Any questions on this? I have no

1172
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,990
questions right now.

1173
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,520
How are you feeling, Kevin? Yeah. I'd

1174
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:23,920
say proceed.

1175
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:24,680
Okay. Go ahead [clears throat] to the

1176
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,600
growth boundary.

1177
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,920
Okay. So with the growth boundary, um

1178
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,320
nothing has changed as far as what was

1179
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,440
presented uh previously.

1180
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,560
But the two areas, the 1050 West

1181
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:38,080
annexation,

1182
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:39,920
um

1183
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,320
with uh some limited infrastructure at

1184
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:43,880
this area,

1185
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,640
uh doesn't really fit with the policy

1186
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:48,960
that's uh been written in the land use

1187
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,680
element as far as what the growth

1188
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,280
boundary is, what its purpose is.

1189
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:55,360
Um so that's a question of whether or

1190
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,440
not that should be uh included in the

1191
00:43:58,440 --> 00:43:59,400
growth boundary that would be

1192
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:01,040
established.

1193
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:02,560
Um the other is the Stevens Hill

1194
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,760
annexation. Uh a little bit harder to

1195
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,120
see without this outline,

1196
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:08,920
but you can see that part of it is

1197
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:10,760
currently within the growth boundary,

1198
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,080
part of it is outside of it.

1199
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:14,760
Um

1200
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:16,040
and there's still a majority of the

1201
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,560
property that's in active agricultural

1202
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,080
protection areas.

1203
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:23,840
So, if we want to um exclude properties

1204
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:26,600
that have active farming operations that

1205
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:28,880
want to fall under the the APA

1206
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:30,680
designation there,

1207
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,880
then it would be uh following policy to

1208
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,720
exclude them from the growth boundary.

1209
00:44:36,720 --> 00:44:39,080
So, those are the two areas that um

1210
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:40,440
there's still some question marks on,

1211
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,440
but I'm happy to answer or provide any

1212
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,080
uh further comment on that. Thank you

1213
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:48,910
for the consistency there.

1214
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:50,920
Yeah, this looks good.

1215
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:52,440
Do we want to have a discussion? How's

1216
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:53,720
everyone feeling about where we are

1217
00:44:53,720 --> 00:44:55,120
right now?

1218
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:55,880
I feel good. I don't think a

1219
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,040
discussion's needed. I think so far the

1220
00:44:58,040 --> 00:44:59,560
changes that were requested are looking

1221
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:03,000
good as far as being implemented. So, I don't know. Okay. And I think just

1222
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:04,560
from for [clears throat] both general

1223
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:06,200
plan and

1224
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,160
growth boundary, just my comments are

1225
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,040
pretty simple is we've talked about this

1226
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,520
ad nauseam at this point and we've come

1227
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,240
to a point where it's like, you know, we

1228
00:45:15,240 --> 00:45:17,120
have this big document. It's a lot of

1229
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,720
pages. There's a lot of elements to it.

1230
00:45:19,720 --> 00:45:21,120
There are still things that are still

1231
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:22,400
going to change in the future. We've

1232
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:23,800
already had land owners that have told

1233
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:25,120
us that they

1234
00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:27,040
think that we maybe got something wrong

1235
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:28,520
or we haven't been looking at an area

1236
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:30,840
maybe close enough and they're putting a

1237
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:32,120
an application to have that general plan

1238
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:33,640
changed and that's the process and

1239
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:36,080
that's awesome. We also talked about a

1240
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,360
couple areas that we want to talk about

1241
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,720
that Mr. Mann is already aware of and

1242
00:45:40,720 --> 00:45:42,080
they're already kind of focusing on.

1243
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:43,400
Maybe we need to do a bigger study

1244
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:44,360
there.

1245
00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,440
I think that that's this is the right

1246
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,880
way to go. Um and then if information

1247
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,400
comes forward in the next whenever, we

1248
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:52,600
can make changes to this. This is a

1249
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,120
living document. There's going to be

1250
00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,040
changes and I think it's important.

1251
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:57,320
Thank you

1252
00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,360
um to you and your team and the GIS

1253
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,800
folks who made that map um

1254
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:03,520
work. I think it looks great. It does

1255
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:05,120
what I was hoping to accomplish by

1256
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,600
identifying the APA and then also what

1257
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:08,920
its general plan does. So, you can kind

1258
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:11,480
of get a good feel for everything all at

1259
00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:13,000
once and then also with the growth

1260
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,240
boundary and being consistent in saying,

1261
00:46:15,240 --> 00:46:17,760
"Hey, if you're in APA or we're not

1262
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:19,760
ready to service you, like we're going

1263
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:21,480
to pull you out of this annexation or

1264
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,560
this growth boundary for now and then

1265
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:25,360
when that changes, we can we can make

1266
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,280
those changes at a further time." So,

1267
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,120
thank you.

1268
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:31,480
Awesome.

1269
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:32,280
Any comments?

1270
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:34,160
>> No, nothing additional. It sounds like

1271
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,680
we might be ready to get a motion unless

1272
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,000
I just want to

1273
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,480
talk about this growth boundary

1274
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:41,960
for a moment cuz I think it's important

1275
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:43,760
to understand

1276
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:45,760
some of the implications and I feel like

1277
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:49,310
I want you to go back.

1278
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,480
I feel like that's forward.

1279
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:55,320
Are you going No, I was looking at Jack.

1280
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:56,080
Pushing the wrong button.

1281
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,280
>> Yeah, slow down.

1282
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,600
Maybe one more.

1283
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,480
Yeah, this one.

1284
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,440
So,

1285
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:09,310
if there are

1286
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,320
those two in yellow that he highlighted,

1287
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,680
1050 West and the Stevens Hill, both of

1288
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:17,280
those have current

1289
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,640
annexation studies, right, that we're

1290
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,680
working through, but both have lands

1291
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:26,680
that are in ag protection.

1292
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:28,080
You could take the approach of we'll

1293
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,040
leave those in kind of a grandfather

1294
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:31,480
type of approach since they've already

1295
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:35,280
started or you could also send a give us

1296
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:37,320
some direction to say we want to cancel

1297
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:38,600
those

1298
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,840
as long as they have APA

1299
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:42,720
because this if they get annexed and

1300
00:47:42,720 --> 00:47:45,630
have

1301
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:47,880
ag protection still on them, the policy

1302
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:50,440
would suggest that you don't

1303
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:53,680
allow them to develop.

1304
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:55,680
It's a policy, it guides, it's not a

1305
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,520
black and white, it's not It doesn't

1306
00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,280
dictate to you what thou shalt do.

1307
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:03,280
But it is helpful if you have this to at

1308
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:04,480
least

1309
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:06,280
be mindful of that.

1310
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:08,800
So, I I don't know I we've mentioned

1311
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:10,240
this in some previous conversations. I

1312
00:48:10,240 --> 00:48:11,760
don't know if you want to

1313
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:12,600
I can give my

1314
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:14,040
>> take those in and out or or have a

1315
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:15,520
discussion or move forward, but I just

1316
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:16,680
want to make sure that you're you're

1317
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:18,320
thoughtful to that specifically tonight.

1318
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:20,640
My thought would be be allowing the

1319
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:21,920
landowners to continue through the

1320
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,160
annexation process. However,

1321
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:27,160
going through I I keeping them keeping

1322
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:28,880
consistent with what we're saying and

1323
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,000
taking them out of the growth boundary

1324
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:32,320
because they could do those things

1325
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:34,160
simultaneously. Right? They could be

1326
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:35,720
working on the their APA. They could be

1327
00:48:35,720 --> 00:48:37,080
working on the growth boundary. All

1328
00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:39,760
those things happening at the same time.

1329
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:42,000
But I think that this gives a message of

1330
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:43,760
consistency of what we're saying with

1331
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,640
the growth boundary and APAs and

1332
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,560
respecting their their what what

1333
00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:51,120
previous or

1334
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:53,120
landowners have said they wanted, which

1335
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,440
is to be left alone when they're in the

1336
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:58,710
APA.

1337
00:48:58,720 --> 00:49:01,280
So, my thoughts are on that Seth is

1338
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:03,360
we've got the strategies in place on how

1339
00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:09,560
to determine whether we go west of I-15.

1340
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:11,920
I think you should also have the same

1341
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:13,960
strategies when it comes to annexation.

1342
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,360
Meaning until we see signs that they're

1343
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,000
planning on doing something different

1344
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:19,320
with their property, meaning they've

1345
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:23,320
applied to have it removed from the APA,

1346
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:24,520
then it stays out of the growth

1347
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:27,200
boundary. Sure. And I think that I think

1348
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:28,320
the development of the growth boundary

1349
00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:31,520
tool is as we're pre- presenting tonight

1350
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:33,720
is a powerful way of saying

1351
00:49:33,720 --> 00:49:35,320
we don't expect growth to happen. I

1352
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,920
think that you can annex and not change

1353
00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:39,560
the growth boundary. Correct.

1354
00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:41,320
>> It I think it's just it's perhaps a

1355
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,000
finding or or something that you

1356
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:45,440
acknowledge through the process of this

1357
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:48,320
is maybe contrary to the policy, but

1358
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:49,680
here's the reason why we want to do

1359
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:51,120
that. And I don't [clears throat] think

1360
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:52,920
that I don't think that should be a

1361
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:54,440
problem, but I think it's something that

1362
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:55,520
you note, and I think that's something

1363
00:49:55,520 --> 00:50:01,120
that we would probably point out in our staff reports.

1364
00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:03,360
Okay. Agreed. You guys You're good.

1365
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:05,200
Thank you.

1366
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:07,360
All right, this will be um

1367
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:10,080
big big day

1368
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,360
in the life of Spanish Fork City.

1369
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:15,200
Passing a land use element plan. Let's

1370
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:18,400
go. Is this actually a big deal? Yes, it

1371
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:19,840
is. Okay.

1372
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:23,110
Can I get a motion?

1373
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:24,760
Got it.

1374
00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:25,520
Who's going to do it?

1375
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:29,400
>> I'll do it. I move to approve the ordinance to adopt

1376
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:31,520
the land use element of the

1377
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:33,600
comprehensive general plan.

1378
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,200
I have a motion by Councilman Tuck.

1379
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:38,720
A second by Councilwoman Beck. Well done

1380
00:50:38,720 --> 00:50:40,160
on that. There you go. Sneaky.

1381
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,160
>> This is a roll call vote. Councilman

1382
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:42,680
Oyler.

1383
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:45,640
>> Yes. Councilwoman Beck. Yes. Councilman

1384
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:46,120
Carden.

1385
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:47,800
>> Yes. And Councilman Tuck.

1386
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,040
>> Yes. Okay, that passed.

1387
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:51,400
Okay.

1388
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:53,520
On to the ordinance to adopt the growth

1389
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:54,000
boundary.

1390
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,000
>> I move to approve the growth boundary.

1391
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:57,680
That was way simple.

1392
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,320
Okay, Councilman Carden has

1393
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:02,440
made the

1394
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:03,880
proposal. Motion. Motion.

1395
00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:05,520
>> Okay. I'll second it. Made the motion

1396
00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:08,160
and Councilman Tuck second. Roll call

1397
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:09,680
vote. Councilman Carden.

1398
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:11,080
>> Yes. Councilman Tuck.

1399
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:11,440
>> Yes.

1400
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:12,160
>> Councilman Oyler.

1401
00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:14,720
>> Yes. Councilwoman Beck. Yes. So that

1402
00:51:14,720 --> 00:51:16,480
passes.

1403
00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:19,120
Okay, see the project signage plan

1404
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:21,480
approval request for a site located at

1405
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:24,640
200 East 2940 North.

1406
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:26,390
Welcome back.

1407
00:51:26,395 --> 00:51:26,400
» [laughter]

1408
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,120
>> You missed us. It's great to be back

1409
00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:29,440
again.

1410
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:30,560
Um

1411
00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:33,560
so these are uh there's two project

1412
00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,400
signage plans that have been reviewed by

1413
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,400
staff, have been presented to the DRC

1414
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:41,200
and the planning commission.

1415
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:42,440
Um I think there was some good

1416
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:44,120
discussion at the planning commission to

1417
00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:46,240
evaluate whether or not

1418
00:51:46,240 --> 00:51:50,440
um allowing thing signs that go beyond

1419
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:53,800
what is allowed typically. Um

1420
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,320
and the reasoning behind it.

1421
00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:57,840
So, just to

1422
00:51:57,840 --> 00:51:59,400
refresh

1423
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:01,720
the last council meeting, there was a

1424
00:52:01,720 --> 00:52:04,160
text amendment that was

1425
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:06,840
approved for

1426
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,520
the the acreage where our project

1427
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:10,480
signage plan is allowed.

1428
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:11,960
And

1429
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:15,320
the minimum building space requirement

1430
00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:18,200
based on distance from an interchange on

1431
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:20,840
I-15.

1432
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:22,440
So, the first one that is being

1433
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:26,360
presented is for the new site for Doug

1434
00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:28,640
Ford dealership.

1435
00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:30,960
Um this is a property

1436
00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:32,480
>> Doug Smith, sorry.

1437
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:34,560
I was thinking cars, anyways.

1438
00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:36,280
Um Doug Smith

1439
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:37,640
dealership.

1440
00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:40,960
Uh this is adjacent to the the new

1441
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:43,800
interchange that will be opening soon.

1442
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,960
Um as we've driven by it, I'm sure most

1443
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:49,800
people have noticed that the the grade

1444
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,360
change where the on-ramps and off-ramps

1445
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:55,080
or have been built

1446
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:57,640
limit the amount of visibility to the

1447
00:52:57,640 --> 00:52:58,880
site.

1448
00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:03,160
So, with that the the property owner is

1449
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:06,400
proposing taller and larger signs

1450
00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:08,200
along I-15.

1451
00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:09,880
There's also

1452
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:11,160
these

1453
00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:13,560
three signs here

1454
00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:17,160
that are proposed to be taller as well

1455
00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:21,480
due to the distance from where

1456
00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:22,880
you've got this large, I think,

1457
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:24,520
detention basin.

1458
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:26,120
So,

1459
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:28,040
based on that distance and the

1460
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:30,840
importance of visibility for dealership

1461
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:34,120
um those are proposed to be taller. The

1462
00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,840
planning commission did recommend that

1463
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:39,320
the monument signs on the north end that

1464
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:41,400
were originally shown at 10 ft be

1465
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:43,400
reduced to meet the current standards,

1466
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:45,560
which is 6 ft, and the applicant was

1467
00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:46,920
okay with that.

1468
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:49,240
So, that is what's being proposed with

1469
00:53:49,240 --> 00:53:53,120
this project sign as planned. Got it.

1470
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:55,200
Awesome. Thank you.

1471
00:53:55,200 --> 00:54:00,150
Okay, any discussion?

1472
00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:03,600
Seeing none, can I get a motion?

1473
00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:05,440
I move to approve the project signage

1474
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:07,440
plan for Doug Smith Dealerships. A

1475
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:09,600
motion by Councilman Euler. Second. And

1476
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:11,280
a second by Councilman Carden. This is

1477
00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:12,880
also a roll call vote. Councilman

1478
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:14,760
Carden. Yes. Councilman Took.

1479
00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:17,000
>> Yes. Councilman Euler. Yes. And

1480
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,280
Councilwoman Beck. Yes.

1481
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:20,920
Okay, next.

1482
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:22,680
The signage plan approval request for

1483
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:28,030
site located at 1339 North Main Street.

1484
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,720
So, this is the current site of the Doug

1485
00:54:30,720 --> 00:54:36,230
Smith Dealership. Um part of this uh

1486
00:54:36,240 --> 00:54:38,160
the the moving of the of this property

1487
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:39,440
to the north

1488
00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:42,240
um is finding a buyer for this site,

1489
00:54:42,240 --> 00:54:44,160
which has great visibility right off of

1490
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:47,800
that the freeway on the Main Street.

1491
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:49,960
Um but there is

1492
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:51,800
uh some signage that

1493
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,360
Maverick, who's looking to build a a new

1494
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:56,880
convenience store and gas station there,

1495
00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:59,320
um is requesting through this project

1496
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:01,240
signage plan.

1497
00:55:01,240 --> 00:55:03,200
Uh there's a number of signs in the in

1498
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:04,800
the sign package,

1499
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:08,120
um but a lot of the the proposed larger

1500
00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:12,270
signs are um

1501
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:13,600
are shown

1502
00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,000
on this end

1503
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:16,920
closest to where

1504
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:18,480
um

1505
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:20,800
it would be from I-15.

1506
00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:24,880
And initially, uh I think uh

1507
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,280
it seems like those would be

1508
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:30,160
overly big and tall, and maybe not

1509
00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:32,480
necessary as far as far as giving

1510
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:35,720
visibility to a new business here.

1511
00:55:35,720 --> 00:55:38,470
Um

1512
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:41,040
really quick, I'll just go

1513
00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:43,640
So, this shows

1514
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:44,520
uh

1515
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:47,000
going north and southbound where the

1516
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,080
sign is. Can you I It's hard to even

1517
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:51,360
pick it out, but it's right there

1518
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,680
is where the new sign would be based on

1519
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:56,360
the dimensions that have been provided.

1520
00:55:56,360 --> 00:56:00,280
So, it it's not like it's a towering

1521
00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:02,040
um billboard

1522
00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:04,720
that would change the the overall uh

1523
00:56:04,720 --> 00:56:07,760
landscape along I-15, but it would

1524
00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:11,560
definitely give some uh direction to

1525
00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:13,920
uh anyone looking to use that service

1526
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:17,680
there and uh to be able to make that uh

1527
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:19,560
business work well.

1528
00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:22,960
Um so, I think the the memo that was

1529
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,560
written by Ian Bunker is pretty uh

1530
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:27,200
explanatory going through all the

1531
00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:28,840
different types of signs that are in the

1532
00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:30,360
project plan.

1533
00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:32,080
Um but, I'd be happy to answer any other

1534
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:36,430
questions that you might have.

1535
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:38,120
None for me.

1536
00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:39,000
Okay.

1537
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:40,840
Yeah, the commission did a good job

1538
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:42,280
asking lots of good questions on this

1539
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:44,800
and I appreciate their input and

1540
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:46,440
oversight.

1541
00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:47,880
Okay, if no questions, can I get a

1542
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:50,080
motion? I move to approve the project

1543
00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:52,840
sign each plan for Maverick.

1544
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:54,440
Okay, I have a motion by Councilman

1545
00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:56,880
Euler. Second. A second by Councilman

1546
00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:58,520
Took. This is a roll call vote.

1547
00:56:58,520 --> 00:56:59,440
Councilman Took?

1548
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:01,160
>> Yes. Councilman Carden?

1549
00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:03,280
>> Yes. Councilwoman Beck? Yes. And

1550
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:05,440
Councilman Euler? Yes. Okay, that's

1551
00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:07,560
approved. The last one, resolution

1552
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,000
approving terms of general fund loan to

1553
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:15,910
the airport.

1554
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:23,430
Goodnight.

1555
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:26,320
So, the the current year's budget has

1556
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:28,720
approved a loan from the general fund to

1557
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:32,560
the airport fund for $500,000.

1558
00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:35,480
However, we have not set terms for the

1559
00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:37,920
loan repayment. Um so this resolution

1560
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:40,920
will set terms for the loan repayment.

1561
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:42,400
Um

1562
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:44,800
we had discussed it being a 5-year loan,

1563
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:46,920
and that's what uh staff recommends.

1564
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:48,880
Staff also recommends that the interest

1565
00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:51,960
be uh waived, so a no interest loan in

1566
00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:53,680
this case.

1567
00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:55,040
Um

1568
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:56,520
Jack's got the resolution here. If

1569
00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:58,600
you'll go just to the last page in the

1570
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:00,920
exhibit here,

1571
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:02,360
um

1572
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:05,680
shows $100,000 each year, uh concluding

1573
00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:08,440
in fiscal year 2031.

1574
00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:10,200
Um

1575
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:12,480
but yeah, this is what the staff has

1576
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:14,360
recommended. Um there's a lot of growth

1577
00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:16,320
happening at the airport as Jesse and

1578
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,240
Stacy and you you two sit on the the

1579
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:20,080
airport board and are familiar with that

1580
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:23,320
growth, and this loan will help uh

1581
00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:24,320
them

1582
00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:25,480
there.

1583
00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:27,760
Thank you, Warden. Yeah. Thank you.

1584
00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:29,640
Yeah, any questions, concerns on this

1585
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,800
one? No. So the airport

1586
00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:34,680
itself will be paying back this loan.

1587
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:35,640
Yes, yeah.

1588
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:37,360
>> Further, do you know offhand what their

1589
00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:39,000
current

1590
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:39,760
budget is?

1591
00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:40,280
>> budget is, yeah.

1592
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,400
>> It is changing drastically. Um if you

1593
00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:45,040
look at uh just 3 years ago, we did not

1594
00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:46,520
have any full-time employees. We now

1595
00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:49,600
have two full-time employees. Um we're

1596
00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:52,040
con- worried about uh constructing a a

1597
00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:56,040
second uh taxiway. Um so it's

1598
00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:56,760
and

1599
00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:57,840
uh

1600
00:58:57,840 --> 00:58:59,440
it's changing every year, which makes

1601
00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:00,920
the budgeting difficult, and there's a

1602
00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:02,840
lot of expansion happening, which makes

1603
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:04,560
budgeting difficult. But they don't have

1604
00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:06,440
any concerns with paying this off in 5

1605
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:07,800
years? Uh

1606
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:11,000
right now we don't envision any um

1607
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:13,440
Corey, Seth, anything you'd

1608
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:16,400
add to any color you'd add to that?

1609
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:19,120
I don't think we've given ourselves the

1610
00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:21,440
ability to have concerns with it. It's

1611
00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:24,080
just the nature of it, right?

1612
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:25,120
Um

1613
00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:26,320
they

1614
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:27,840
We're not going to get to 5 years and

1615
00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:30,080
say we need to ex- extend it another 5

1616
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:33,040
years. Well, if we don't if we get to 5

1617
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:34,720
years then there would only be $100,000

1618
00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:37,720
left on the loan, right? So, this this

1619
00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:39,600
next year FY27 there they would pay

1620
00:59:39,600 --> 00:59:41,760
$100,000 back.

1621
00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:45,320
FY28 $100,000 and so on.

1622
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:46,440
Um

1623
00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:49,920
now, I think I think it's wise to uh

1624
00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:51,760
I think it was great to give a loan so

1625
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:53,520
that they could cash flow some projects

1626
00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:58,800
and I think it's wise to have the that repayment because it does what we're trying to do with

1627
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,440
each of our entities and that is create

1628
01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:03,960
independence and self-sufficiency.

1629
01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:07,520
Um a no interest loan is a huge gift,

1630
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:08,920
right? I don't know over the length of

1631
01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:11,960
time what that would save them, but

1632
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:13,160
Maybe 60,000?

1633
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:14,720
>> Yeah, compounding interest would

1634
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:16,600
probably get it up to $60,000. So, I

1635
01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:18,320
mean that's a pretty that's a pretty big

1636
01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:18,960
deal, right?

1637
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:19,760
>> Yeah.

1638
01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:20,720
Um
