PARC TAX ADVISORY BOARD MEETING
AMERICAN FORK CITY
MARCH 10, 2021
NOTICE OF MEETING AND AGENDA
*NOTICE OF ELECTRONIC MEETING*
In accordance with Resolution No. 2020-07-20R, Chairman Thompson has determined that
conducting meetings of the PARC Tax Advisory Board with an anchor location, such as the City
Council Chambers or Administration Conference Room, presents a substantial risk to the health
and safety of those who may be present there. The following are facts upon which this
determination has been made:
• Utah has declared a Statewide Public Health Emergency due to COVID-19 on October
14, 2020, a virus outbreak that has been recognized by the World Health Organization,
federal, state and local leaders as a pandemic.
• The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has stated that COVID-19 is
easily spread from person to person between people who are in close contact with one
another through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks.
This virus can also be spread by people who are asymptomatic.
• Federal, state, and local authorities recommend that individuals limit public gatherings,
wear face masks, and follow social distancing guidelines.
• It is difficult to anticipate the number of attendees at any meeting in order to maintain
social distancing to comply with Utah Health Guidance levels. Further, regardless of the
number of attendees, social distancing measures for Council, staff, and attendees will be
difficult to maintain in the City Council Chambers and Administration Conference Room.
• COVID-19 continues to pose an immediate threat to the health, safety, and welfare of
American Fork City residents.
• American Fork City can provide a way for the public to hear, or hear and view, open
portions of City Council meetings and to provide a way to participate in public hearings.
For the next 30 days, all PARC Tax Advisory Board meetings will be conducted via electronic
means. The meetings are broadcast live-streamed, and available at a later time, at
https://www.americanfork.gov/AgendaCenter. Citizens may submit comments via email at
publicccomment@americanfork.gov at least three hours prior to the start of the schedule
meeting.
Notice is hereby given that a meeting of the PARC Tax Advisory Board of American Fork City will
