4. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE CLEARFIELD CITY MASTER
TRANSPORTATION PLAN
BACKGROUND: As a combined effort between Community Development and Public Works,
the City used Transportation and Land Use (TLC) funding to hire Wall Consultant Group
(WCG) to complete a master transportation plan. This plan accomplished several of the City’s
priorities: set goals and objectives to promote the City’s interests and align with previously
completed plans, analyzed existing conditions, forecast future growth, created a transportation
and street system plan, classified the street system, created a bridge maintenance and
improvement plan, created an implementation plan for suggested improvements, engaged with
public and neighboring agencies, set performance metrics and created an impact fee facilities
plan.

the mayor’s signature to any necessary documents.
5. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH
THE UTAH DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES, DIVISION OF
WILDLIFE RESOURCES, FOR THE PROVISION OF A PUBLIC-USE FISHING
DOCK AT STEED POND
BACKGROUND: City staff has discussed potential improvements in and around Steed Pond
with the Utah Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Division of Wildlife Resources
(UDWR) for several years. The Steed Pond Master Plan was completed in December of 2018
with the assistance of the Civil Solutions Group. This spring, DNR indicated that they would
have funding in this fiscal year to help with the construction of a fishing dock at Steed Pond.
Since Steed Pond is a popular fishing area within the City that is used on a daily basis by many
of our residents, this opportunity would provide the City with the means to complete this project
in FY26.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Memorandum of Understanding with the Utah
Department of Natural Resources, Division of Wildlife Resources, for the provision of a public-
use fishing dock at Steed Pond, and authorize the mayor’s signature to any necessary
documents.

BACKGROUND: Over the past several years, the Clearfield City Police Department has
partnered with the Layton City Police Department and other Davis County law enforcement
agencies to respond to critical incidents requiring a tactical response team. The Clearfield Police
Department assigns up to three officers to the team. North Davis Metro SWAT has responded to
several critical incidents in Clearfield City, and the city benefits from the specialized training
and expertise of its members. The goal of the North Davis Metro SWAT team is to save lives
and provide a specialized, well-trained, and well-equipped response to high-risk incidents. To
formalize the relationship among the participating Davis County agencies, it is proposed that the
agencies enter into an agreement to create an Executive Board to oversee the SWAT team.
