DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (DA) TO CLARIFY THE PERMITTED
SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROPERTY
LOCATED AT APPROXIMATELY 325-375 SOUTH STATE STREET (TIN: 12-003-

BACKGROUND: The applicant, Chuck Cowley, plans to construct a mixed-use project with
three (3), six story, mixed use buildings on the north side of a new private street named
Waterfront Way. This development will include 296 residential units and approximately 27K
square feet of commercial/retail space. The development agreement for this project was
executed in February of 2023, and was preceded by the site plan review that was granted
approval on December 21, 2022, with conditions. The development team has been finalizing
plans to submit for and obtain final land use approval. They are also preparing final plans for
permit submission. During this preparation the developer discovered an issue that was missed
when adopting the DA. This oversight applies to how successors or assigns were provided for in
the event the need should arise. The developer is requesting an amendment to the executed DA
to address this issue and provide the needed clarity for their team. No other sections, except

SCHEDULED ITEMS:
4. OPEN COMMENT PERIOD
The Open Comment Period provides an opportunity to address the Mayor and City Council
regarding concerns or ideas on any topic. To be considerate of everyone at this meeting, public
comment will be limited to three minutes per person. Participants are to state their names for the
record. Comments, which cannot be made within these limits, should be submitted in writing to

5. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION 2024R-16 PROVIDING NOTICE OF
THE CITY’S INTENT TO OBTAIN A LOAN FROM THE STATE
INFRASTRUCTURE BANK FOR WATER AND SEWER PROJECTS
BACKGROUND: In 2021, the City completed a Utility Rate Study that projected future costs
and outlined the necessary revenues to cover those costs. However, all costs have since risen
beyond the study's projections. The most significant increases have been in the cost of large
projects essential for system maintenance. Additionally, Weber Basin Water has raised their
water charges to the City, and these rates are expected to continue rising for at least the next
three years, exceeding our original utility rate study projections and affecting the City’s ability
to complete necessary infrastructure projects. This resolution will initiate the process to borrow
· 55 South State Street, Clearfield, UT 84015· (801) 525-2701· clearfield.city· 2
from the State Infrastructure Loan (SIB). The parameters are broad to cover various
possibilities, which is why the amount, term, and interest rate might appear higher than
previously discussed and are listed as "not to exceed" amounts. These parameters represent a
"worst-case scenario." We plan to borrow approximately $9.5 million with an anticipated
interest rate of 3.59% over a 15-year term.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve Resolution 2024R-16 providing notice of the City’s intent to
obtains a loan from the State Infrastructure Bank for water and sewer projects and authorize the
mayor’s signature to any necessary documents.

Development located at approximately 325-375 South State Street (TIN: 12-003-0283) and

7. CONSIDER RATIFICATION OF THE NEW NATIONAL OPIOID SETTLEMENT
WITH KROGER CO. (SMITH’S GROCERY IN UTAH)
BACKGROUND: The City previously joined a national opioid settlement with all 50 states,
Washington D.C., and five U.S. territories as part of a $26 billion dollar settlement agreement
with the nation’s three major pharmaceutical distributors — Cardinal, McKesson and
AmerisourceBergen — along with Johnson & Johnson, which manufactured and marketed
opioids ($271 million was earmarked for the state of Utah). This New National Opioid
Settlement with Kroger Co. will pay up to $1.4 billion over 11 years nationally, with up to $1.2
billion for state and local governments where it operates and $36 million to Native American
tribes. It is anticipated that the proposed settlement will return at least $44 million to Utah, if all
cities and counties participate in the settlement.

Co. (Smith’s Grocery in Utah).
