1. Planning Matter First Reading: ZM-21-004/ZT-21-008, Adoption of a City Center
Overlay - Development Agreement Zone, Approval of Technical Amendments to Title 19
of the Millcreek Code, and a Preliminary Site Plan Approval to Accommodate a Mixed Use
Development Consisting of a 75,000 Square Foot City Hall, a Mixed Use Building
Consisting of Approximately 215 Rental Dwellings with Restaurant and Retail Space, and a
Shared Public Parking Structure Consisting of Roughly 460 Parking Stalls Subject to a
Development Agreement at 1311-1321 East 3300 South, 3215 South Richmond Street, and
1324 East Chambers Avenue by Applicants Cottonwood Residential and Millcreek;
Francis Lffly, Planning Director
Francis Lilly said the City Center Overlay Development Agreement Zone (CCODAZ)
allowed for deviations from the City Center Overlay Zone (CCOZ). The Council needs to
make specific findings for the deviations. Staff has been working with the developers on the
project for over two years. It is a complicated project with multiple uses. He gave the
Council a project summary which included details on:
Millcreek City Council Meeting Minutes 20December2021 Page2ofll
1. CityHall-75,000sf-6stories/-87feetinheight
a. Ground floor public market and caf6 / restaurant space - 6,400 sf
b. Unified Police Millcreek Precinct headquarters
c. 6'h floor community room - 6,400 sf
d. Municipal offices
e. Outdoor climbing wall on the northwest corner of building
f. PV system and geothern'ial wells
g. WELL Building certification
2. Mixed-Use Building - 6 stories / 78 feet in height
a. 215 rental dwellings
b. Restaurant - 3,800 sf
c. Retail and coworking office space - 7,600 sf
d. Retail and restaurant space-10,000 sf, including at least a 3,800 sf restaurant.
3. Shared Parking Structure
a. 460 total parking stalls (additional on-street parking along project frontage on
Millcreek Common)
b. 59 stalls reserved for police and city vehicles in a secured basement level
c. Remainder of parking to be shared between City Hall and the mixed-use building
d. Parking structure costs $13.5 million - to be jointly funded and operated by City
and Millcreek Common West.
e. Shared parking analysis conducted using the Urban Land Institute's shared
parking ratios for mixed use projects - accommodates City Hall, residential and
restaurant use, and a portion of the parking demand anticipated by Millcreek
Common.
f. Parking will be publicly accessible.
g. 46 electric vehicle charging stations.
He noted that Fehr & Peers did a shared parking analysis that found on a peak weekday, 492
parking stalls were needed. The buildings would either require the use of solar panels or an
alternative efficiency building standard be met.
Lilly said the General Plan contemplates goals and strategies for the city center. Millcreek
Common and the sunounding development concept has evolved to include a substantially
widened Millcreek Common due to the location of the fault line and development impacts are
less than what was envisioned in the City Center Master Plan. The city center currently
contemplated seven projects consisting of approximately 1,400 residential units, 143,000 square
feet of cornrnercial space, and 2,200 parking stalls. The traffic impact will be less than what was
expected as contemplated by the Greatest Impact Scenario in the Highland Drive Corridor Study.
It is expected that vehicle traffic will have a free right-hand tum from Chambers Avenue onto
1300 E., a free left and free right from Chambers Avenue onto Highland Drive, southbound
traffic onto Millcreek Common Lane then westbound on 3300 South, and improved bicycle
experience along 3300 S. He did not anticipate significant traffic impacts because there would be
multiple ways in and out of the project.
Lilly showed the Council renderings of the proposed buildings and the exterior materials. The
mixed-use building will contemplate the look of City Hall. EPG LLC architects provided input
that there could be more articulation on the balcony facades and that the overhangs match. The
buildings will also complement Millcreek Common.
Mfflcreek City Council Meeting Minutes 20 December 2021 Page 3 of 11
Lilly reviewed the requested modifications from the standards for this project. The first was the
streetscape. The zone calls for a five-foot bicycle line embedded into the asphalt, but the city was
contemplating the idea of a shared use path on 3300 S. that would include a 6-foot tree buffer
and I 1-foot pathway. Salt Lake City was contemplating this type of shared path in certain areas
on their streets. The second modification is to the required 20-foot stepback on the second floor.
He showed the Commission a rendering of the mixed-use building which included greater
stepbacks on 1300 E. (10-13 feet) than on 3300 S. (5 feet) and a minimal one on the proposed
City Hall (10 feet on the south side) and the mixed-use building and city hall would have
additional stepbacks between the 5"1 and 6I'1stories. The reason for the stepback modification is
to accommodate the geometry of the parking structure. The west side of the building would lose
occupiable space with the required stepback. The developers would provide a better articulated
fagade and more plaza space in the Common to make up for it and the city hall would have an
articulated fagade that was unlike any other building in Millcreek.
Lilly said the third modification would be on the building height. The max height in code is 75
feet but the plans call for an 88-foot City Hall and 78-foot feature on the mixed-use building. The
fourth modification is on building length. The proposed building length is 330 feet, but the code
max is 300 feet. The building length is offset by the fagade articulation. He showed the
Commission the design considerations and materials for the buildings. The fifth modification is
to move the location of the commercial space to the main street in the Common rather than on
3300 S. or 1300 E. The code requires a 75% gross floor area within 250 feet of the 3300 S. 1300
E. intersection. The sixth modification is the city hall roofline. The code requires that rooflines
should vary every 100 feet, but the rendering illustrated a consistent one. Lilly said the code
contemplated multi-family housing for that requirement.
Lilly gave an overview of the recommended parking need which would be 472 spaces used at
peak hour on a typical day, 495 spaces used at peak hour (weekend) for a 200-person event, and
501 spaces used a peak hour (weekend) for a 500-person event. The parking supply in
comparison contemplated 460 spaces (401 publicly available) in the parking structure, 23 spaces
on Millcreek Common, and 81 additional temporary surface parking spaces in a lot north of
Chambers Avenue for a total of 505 spaces.
Lilly reviewed the proposed ordinance changes. The first would be an allowance for 90 feet in
mixed-use building height in code section 19.73a.050. He said the code contemplated only city
hall being allowed to go to that height. That section would also add the following language:
Required minimum stepbacksmay be modified 0727J,' for developmentsthat have at least 100 feet
offrontage along Millcreek Common, subject to thefollowing standards:
i. Building stepbacksfor facades along Millcreek Commortmay be eliminated, provided the
faqade has at least100 feet offrontage alongMillcreek Common.
ii. Building stepbacksfor facades along 3300 South may be reduced to 5 feet, provided that
pedestrian amenities, including sidewalks and a side path as defined in the Millcreek
Transportation Master Plan, are at least17 feet in width as measuredfrom the back of curb.
iii. Buildingstepbacks forfacades along 1300East/Richmond Streetmay be reduced to 10
feet, providedthefaqadehasatleastlOOfeetoffrontagealongl300East/RichmondStreet.
iv. No other required building stepback may be modified.
Millcreek City Council Meeting Minutes 20 December 2021 Page 4 of 11
The development agreement approval process for this application included a neighborhood
meeting/open house in September 2021, a joint Planning Commission/City Council meeting in
November 2021, community council presentations in December 2021, and a Planning
Commission public hearing in December 2021, and then it would go on to the City Council for
approval in January 2022.
At a meeting on December I, 2021, the Canyon Rim Citizens Association discussed the
proposed project. They broadly expressed support for the project, especially for the protected
bicycle lanes proposed for the project. One community council member expressed that the City
Hall was too tall. Their bylaws prevent them from making a formal recommendation in
December. At a meeting on December 2, 2021, the East Mill Creek Community Council
unanimously recommended approvaI of the proposed project and development agreement. At a
meeting on December 6, 2021, the Mount Olympus Community Council discussed the proposed
project. Council members posed questions about emergency preparedness, the provision of
affordable housing in this project or elsewhere in City Center, and the maintenance requirements
for the wood soffit proposed for the city hall roof structure. They unanimously recommended
approval of the proposed project and development agreement. At a meeting on December 7,
2021, the Millcreek Community Council voted 9 to l in favor of the proposed project and
development agreement. Members of the council expressed a desire for local restaurants along
Millcreek Common, operations and maintenance requirements for the shared parking structure, a
request that the City consider a traffic mitigation plan and a communications plan during
constniction, a desire for public art, a concern about combining police and municipal functions, a
recommendation that the city consider paid parking as a management tool, and that the city
consider a parking management plan for events in excess of 500 people. At their meeting on
December 15, 2021, the Millcreek Planning Commission issued a preliminary site plan approval
for Millcreek Common West and City Hall, recornrnended technical changes to Chapter 19.73a
of the Millcreek Code, and recommended approval of a development agreement subject to the
findings as recommended by staff on a 7-1 vote.
Lilly reviewed the staff recommended findings of approval:
1. Theprojectisdesignedtoenhancetheplacemakingandcornrnunitybuildingfunctions
of the Millcreek Common and advances the goals of the general Plan and the City Center
Master Plan. The proposed project does not conflict with any applicable policy and
guidance of the general plan or the City Center Master Plan.
2. The utilization of shard parking, the use of consistent materials, the expansion of plaza
space, the addition of a side path, and the program to develop a commercial frontage
flanking the entire western edge of Millcreek Common is a design that on the whole
serves as a better development than would be possible under the strict application of the
City Center Overlay Zone.
3. The project was reviewed by staff and the preliminary site plan generally meets the use
and other requirements of the CCOZ-DA and the underlying zones, except as otherwise
allowed by the CCOZ-DA and the development agreement.
4. The inclusion of the Unified Police Precinct, the shared parking, the side path, the
additional plaza space, and the commercial frontage along Millcreek Common enhances
the public welfare, enhances urban design and walkability, and supports public
investment in the Millcreek City Center.
5. City Hall will be designed to meet or exceed energy consumption standards through the
inclusion of a rooftop photovoltaic solar system and a geothernnal system for heating and
Millcreek City Council Meeting Minutes 20 December 2021 Page 5 of 11
cooling. In addition, all aboveground utilities will be relocated underground. The project
does not adversely impact existing public utilities, including but not limited to power,
gas, telecommunications, storm water, culinary water, or sanitary sewer.
Lilly said development agreement considerations would address:
1. The design of the project will be substantially similar to the proposal presented to the
Community Councils and Planning Commission, subject to additional recommendations
by the Community Councils or Planning Commission.
2. The developer and the city complete a cost-sharing agreement for the construction,
operation, and maintenance of the shared parking structure.
3. The developer incorporate a restaurant of at least 3,700 sf along Millcreek Common.
4. The developer consider public art installations for the blank wall along the paseo and the
plaza spaces on Chambers Avenue and 1300 East.
5. The developer install all required improvements along the project frontage, including but
not limited to the shared bicycle/pedestrian path and the plaza fronting the Millcreek
Common.
6. The developer implement the recommendations provided by EPG LLC, the Millcreek
Common Designer.
Mayor Silvestrini asked if the proposed code changes were reviewed by the Planning
Coinrnission and if the developer was amenable to the development agreement considerations.
Lilly said yes. Council Member Catten noted that parking could be a problem with overlapping
big events and regular uses and asked what the plan was. Lilly said it could come to managing
the events or add valet services, it could take creativity. Council Member Marchant asked about
shared parking with Harmons on 1300 E. Council Member Catten said in Dana Point, Califori'iia
there is a trolley system that goes into neighborhoods that runs on a loop every 15 minutes that
worked well. She thought that could be a solution for parking and bringing people into the city
center.
2. Staff Reports
Aimee McConkie recapped Venture Out! from the summer. In 2021, there were June Festivals,
July movie nights, food tmck nights, Camp Tracy weekend adventures, a Night Out Against

McCoi'ikie noted that Millcreek Cornrnon was dealing with supply shortage and issues with
utilities on Chambers Avenue, so as a result she did not see a public opening that season. Council
Member Catten asked about a soft opening for ice skating. McConkie planned on that. Council
Member Uipi brought up including roller skating groups in the planning. McConkie said she had
been in contact with some.

area. Heroin (18.4g), Meth (3.5g), Crack Cocaine (l.3g), and Marijuana (31.8g) in
individual packaging consistent with drug distribution and paraphernalia was seized.
Stolen property was recovered from inside the jeep, consisting of five credit cards, two
personal check books, Utah ID cards, a social security card and a passport. Detective
Ivan's vigilance and proactive patrol led to the arrest of a drug dealer and recovery of

2. Planning Matters
1.2 Discussion and Consideration of Ordinance 21-55, Amending Sections 19.60.020
and 19.66.020 of the Mfflcreek Code for the Purpose of Allowing Caretaker
Dwellings as Permitted Uses Subject to Standards and Adopting a New Definition of
Caretaker Dwelling in Chapter 19.04 of the Mfflcreek Code
Francis Lilly said the application gained a recoinrnended approval from the community
councils and Planning Commission as a means to provide additional flexibility in housing
in coini'nercial zones. The ordinance would create a definition for a caretaker dwelling as,
"means no more than one dwelling unit that is under corni'non ownership and is attached
or internal to the main building and its commercial and is used for the accommodation of
an employee, business owner and person under contract of the coinmercial use and main
building for security or maintenance purposes," and would establish specific use
standards that would apply to the commercial and light manufacturing zones. Staff
recommended approval of the ordinance. The standards are:
a. Property owner shall record an affidavit stating the caretaker dwelling will not be
leased, rented, or sold separately.
b. Caretaker dwelling shall consist of a minimum habitable floor area of 600 square feet
and not to exceed a maximum habitable floor area of 1,200 square feet.
c. Shall be subject to the off-street parking requirements Chapter 19.80 of the MKZ.
d. Parking spaces for caretaker dwelling cannot be included in any parking reduction
request including shared parking.
e. Home businesses with a customer base visiting the caretaker dwelling sliall be
prohibited.
Mayor Silvestrini noted the Council had a first reading of the application. He asked for
public comment. There was none.
Council Member Marchant moved to approve Ordinance 21-55. Council Member Uipi
seconded. The Recorder called for the vote. All Council Members voted yes. The motion
passed unanimously.
Mfflcreek City Council Meeting Minutes 20 December 2021 Page 8 of 11
2.2 Discussion and Consideration of Ordinance 21-54, Approving a Fee-In-
Lieu/Development Agreement with 3300 Cottonwood, LLC with Respect to
Approximately 1.76 Acres of Real Property at Approximately 1306 East 3300 South
Francis Lilly said the ordinance was for the Hudson project which was 1,496 square feet
short of plaza space. The code allows a developer to request a fee in lieu option for plaza
space with the price set by an appraisal if the project is fronting or adjacent to Millcreek
Corni'non if using the cash would be better than having the plaza space. Staff found that
$149,600 would be more valuable to Millcreek in enhancing the pedestrian experience
and safety on Millcreek Cornrnon than it would be than lengthening or widening the
project's plaza space. This agreement would solidify that action and the developer would
write the city a check before final conditional use permit approval.
Council Member Marchant moved to approve Ordinance 21-54, Approving a Fee-In-
Lieu/Development Agreement with 3300 Cottonwood, LLC with Respect to Approximately
1.76 Acres of Real Property at Approximately 1306 East 3300 South. Council Member
Jackson seconded.
Mayor Silvestrini noted that there was a nearby project in South Salt Lake named The Hudson.
Lilly said it would not be the final name of this project.
The Recorder called for the vote. All Council Members voted yes. The motion passed
unanimously.
Council Member Uipi wished Francis Lilly a happy birthday and happy anniversary.
3. Financial Matters
3.1 Public Hearing on Opening and Amending the Fiscal Year 2021-22 General
Fund and Capital Improvement Project Fund Budget
Laurie Johnson reviewed the General Fund revenue budget. She said the sales tax
increased by $248,479 and the mass transit tax increased by $100,000. Building permits
decreased by $100,000. Engineering permits increased by $25,000. State grants increased
by $40,034. The Ainerican Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds remaining deferred revenue
of $2,270,736 from the prior fiscal year were recognized and would move into the Capital
Improvement Project (CIP) fund. There were minor changes to planning fees, code
compliance fines, interest earnings, and miscellaneous income and donations increased
by $27,248. Council Member Marchant said the property tax revenue for the calendar
year looked good. Johnson noted the fiscal year amount was similar to the prior year.
Johnson reviewed the department expense budgets. There was an increase in the City
Management, Legal Services, Promise Program, Communications and Programs,
Economic Development, Finance, Fleet and Public Works budgets increased. The Public
Safety budget showed a transfer of funds from the Unified Police line item to the
American Recovery Act ({JPD) line item with $1,339,589. The Recorder budget
decreased due to the lower than anticipated election cost. Events/Millcreek Common
budget had various line items adjusted. The Non-Departmental budget transfer to CIP
fund line item increased by $2,270,736.
Johnson then reviewed the CIP revenue budget which had increases in each category
amounting to a total change of $3,809,254. She added the Intergovernmental - CIP
category to separately recognize grant reimbursements per the auditor's recommendation.

4.2 Discussion and Consideration of Resolution 21-46, Approving Registration in the
National Opioid Settlement
Mayor Silvestrini said a number of states had filed a lawsuit against companies that
manufacture opioid drugs with respect to the harm those drugs have caused to
coinmunities in those states. Utah joined the lawsuit and wants to agree to the settlement.
The settlement is structured so that the more jurisdictions inside the state that sign on to
the settlement agree that they will not file their own lawsuit then the more money Utah
gets which would come back to Millcreek. The Utah League of Cities and Towns
encouraged cities to do this.
Council Member Marchant moved to approve Resolution 21-46, Approving Registration in
the National Opioid Settlement. Council Member Jackson seconded. The Recorder called
for the vote. All Council Members voted yes. The motion passed unanimously.

other political entities on tlie matter. Mayor Silvestrini said Salt Lake Public Utilities was
concerned about water quality effects and enough water rights to quell dust. The Salt
Lake County Council passed a notice of pending ordinance to look at amending the
zoning ordinance to outlaw mining or quarries as a conditional use in the forest recreation
zone.
