He shared every concern he received from the 101 council. They were very accommodating and wanted to work with the city. The next step he is 102 working on Is to have Attorney Jenkins draw up a contract (first draft). He had no intention of 103 signing it until he brought it back to the council for their approval. He hoped to have something to 104 share by the next meeting. Councilmember Milbank asked if a Conditional Use Permit would need 105 to happen first. Mayor Thompson said the city will need to make a code change first, and a 106 Conditional Use Permit would need to be filed. Councilmember Milbank brought up the potential 107 impact to the neighborhood. Mayor Thompson explained there are things the city can require of 108 the Boys and Girls Club to minimize impacts. 109 Public Comment: Drue Scott, of 447 E 400 S, discussed his feelings about the pending sidewalk 110 installation. His family was very unhappy to have the sidewalk removed. But now the road is finished, it 111 looks great, and the yards have been filled in. He did not agree with spending more money to undo twant his road ripped up again. 112 what's been done. He suggested the city use the money for another road that needs it more. He didn't Kevin McEntIre lives at the west end of 400 South and prefers the sidewalk to come back. He has small children and has a close call with them trying to get across the road on their blind intersection. 116 Steve Thunell was still in favor of the sidewalk. They have lived with the new road and no 117 sidewalk for two summers. The pedestrians have been forced to walk out in the road. People don't cross 118 the street to use the sidewalk on the other side. He said the installation of a sidewalk will not be near the 119 mess it was when the road was redone. Hefully supported the sidewalk against the curb. He has talked 120 to all the residents and nearly all of them want the sidewalk back. 121 David Thunell would love to see the sidewalk come back. He was concerned about safety. If 400 122 South Is eventually going to go through to 1000 East, there would be more of a problem. 123 Cindy Schaub, of the Planning Commission, said she had an issue with the removal of the sidewalk 124 when the road project was being planned. She regretted it wasn't dealt with at that time. She felt the 125 city owed it to the residents to put it back. 126 Mayor Thompson read written comment from the following: 127 Mary Robinson was NOT in favor of the sidewalk. She didn't want to maintain it and felt it was a 128 waste of money. If it did get done,she didn't support Johnson's doing the job. She didn't want to lose 129 any of her trees and as little lawn as possible. 130 Shelley Fuhriman was supportive of a new sidewalk, but not if she had to pay since she paid for 131 the sidewalk which was removed. 132 A concerned citizen of 388 E 400 S discussed the safety issue of not having a sidewalk. 133 Kristen Scott was disappointed that River Heights spent so much money to redo the road and then 134 will spend more to install a sidewalk, after it has all been ripped up. She did not support another sidewalk. She mentioned other main roads that only have one sidewalk. River Heights City Council Meeting, 5/3/22 136 Aspen McEntIre said the Intersection is terrifying to cross. Her family has drastically reduced going 137 138 on walks to avoid the safety issue with their two small children. Another resident said they didn't have a sidewalk to begin with, so they don't miss it. They don't t 139 want a park strip because it will take away too much of their yard. 140 Drue Scott was hearing concern about the speed of drivers. He asked for signs or patrol to help 141 reduce the speed. 142 Cindy Schaub asked about speed bumps. 143 Heather Lehnig informed that she lived on a corner with a sidewalk, which doesn't have a park 144 strip or curb. She really struggles in the winter because the snowplow dumps all the snow on her 145 sidewalk. She asked the residents to consider this. 146 Mayor Thompson called for a 3-minute recess. 147 Discuss and Vote on Rod Rounds Request for Connection to River Heights Water: Mayor 148 Thompson reminded of the attorney and engineers' comments(not in favor) he read at the last meeting. 149 Councilmember Milbank said Rod Rounds had applied for a permit to get his water from a well 150 and will likely be approved. 151 Councilmember Wright didn't want to vote against the city engineer and attorney's opinions. 152 Councilmember Milbank agreed. He originally felt it would work out for the city to provide water to their 153 property, but now he agreed they should go with the professional recommendations. 154 Mayor Thompson said part of their argument revolves around leaving islands of county property. 155 He said the engineer and attorney have spoken clearly. Councilmember Glover asked, if the Vineyard 156 development goes ahead, would the county force the Rounds property to annex to one city or the other. 157 Mayor Thompson said the county is okay with an island, even though it goes against state law. Mr. Glover 158 159 160 didn't agree with the city providing them water and would highly recommend they annex to River Heights. Kathie Rounds said she and Rod wouldn't mind annexing, but her daughters'family is against it t 161 because they don't want to risk losing their animal rights. She and Rod didn't want to force their family to 162 annex against their will. 163 Councilmember Glover moved to "deny the request for the Rounds family to connect to River 164 Heights water." Councilmember Milbank seconded the motion, which carried with Gallup, Glover, 165 Milbank, and Wright in favor. Mathews abstained. 166 Discuss 400 South Sidewalk Options and a Plan to Move Forward: Councilmember Glover gave an 167 overview of the sidewalk options. He said he had talked with residents to get their input. He hoped, as a 168 city council, they have learned the importance of communication on these types of projects going 169 forward. The city standard on this road would be to provide a sidewalk detached from the curb and 170 gutter with a park strip to meet the city's planting strip code. This would require property acquisitions. 171 The pros to this would be that it would match the city standard, the residents would be allowed to have 172 mailboxes in their park strips, as well as trees and other landscaping. The cons would consist of most 173 residents oppose it and grading issues on the Steve and David Thunell homes. It would require removal of 174 most of Steve's driveway back to his garage and David's retaining wall. He has met with most property 175 owners, and they prefer the 4-foot sidewalk on back of curb. The post office has said they won't deliver 176 to mailboxes in this situation. However, gang boxes could be installed on each block. This option would 177 not require the city to purchase any right of ways. He recommended this option which should be able to 178 fall under the current budget. They had budgeted for right of way acquisition and improvements. 179 Discussion was held on the cost. Mayor Thompson said capital projects showed $70,000 for the 180 181 project and $65,000 for property acquisition plus and additional $45,000. He felt the numbers were a little high since it was based off the park strip plan. He rediscussed some of the issues they were looking t River Heights City Council Meeting,5/3/22 4 tat,including safety,speed,and cost. One ofthe driving forces for him was making the situation rightfor residents. Some of them had paid for their sidewalk, which was removed by the city without their 184 permission. In tallying the present resident's opinions of the evening. Six were in favor and two against. 185 There are less on the west block that want the sidewalk and more on the east side in favor. 186 Councilmember Milbank asked if the installation could be done in two projects, or not do the west 187 block. Councilmember Glover suggesting doing both blocks at the same time to save on mobilization cost. 188 Councilmember Mathews asked why the sidewalk was removed. Councilmember Glover 189 explained that the road project wouldn't work with the elevation of the current sidewalk. 190 Councilmember Glover was less concerned about the removal of snow for the residents. He felt 191 neighbors would help each other out. Before the meeting, he was leaning toward only doing the east 192 block, but after hearing from Mr. McEntire he now supports doing sidewalk on both blocks. 193 Councilmember Mathews asked if residents are liable for snow removal. Councilmember Glover 194 answered that the code requires residents to take care of cleaning their sidewalks within a reasonable 195 time frame. 196 Councilmember Wright asked how they would get away with not following city standards. 197 CouncilmemberGlover said he would never go against the right of way code in new development. 198 However, this situation puts them In a position of retrofitting the current infrastructure. He thinks a 199 certain exception can be made for existing conditions based on the topography, existing trees, homes, 200 and driveways. He felt these items should have some consideration. 201 Councilmember Wright brought up going against the code again. Councilmember Glover said it 202 would be okay because the Council had the final say and the support of the city engineer. He explained dimensions and pointed out that the Saddlerock curb and gutter went against code at the time they were installed. Mr. Wright pointed out that just because something is done wrong doesn't mean they can keep doing it wrong. Mr. Grover said the 400 South situation had an existing condition where they are 206 improving safety. 207 PWD Nelson informed he has been reading a book put out by the Utah League, which said cities 208 should follow their ordinances. 209 Mayor Thompson agreed they need to look at and follow the city code design standards. The city 210 engineer has expressed support for a sidewalk against curb if the council supports it. 211 Councilmember Glover said they aren't recommending changing the concrete specification,just 212 the location of the sidewalk. 213 Councilmember Wright suggested they investigate it more. 214 Cindy Schaub asked why there was no park strip on 600 East on the park block. PWD Nelson said 215 that situation was what caused the post office to say no more. He said 600 East is not a collector road and 216 the irrigation ditch made it a different situation. He informed this is a bad area when they remove snow 217 because it ends up on the sidewalk and stays there until the end of winter. 218 Mayor Thompson read from code, which said the standard is what the city engineer provides. 219 Councilmember Wright didn't agree with his interpretation. He felt it said, the written standards and 220 specifications are provided by the city engineer, not that he gets to have free reign on what they are. 221 Mayor Thompson found and read,"Sidewalks shall be provided on both sides of the street where 222 possible. Sidewalks shall be placed on one side of the street if terrain or other topographical features 223 warrant such and if approved by the city. Under all circumstances at least one sidewalk will be required «224 Councilmember Gallup said years ago the city installed sidewalk in front of her home with a on all public streets." He continued discussing the sidewalk dimensions in 11-6 of the code. parking strip, which moved the sidewalk closer to her home. She supported a 4-foot sidewalk along the curb for the 400 South residents. River Heights City Council Meeting, 5/3/22 228 Councllmember Glover said the city standard Is the Ideal moving forward. Sometimes there are 229 230 constraints to work around, and they need to come up with the best decision for that situation. The residents want it on back of curb. To install a park strip will cause substantial impacts and headaches. He t 231 suggested looking at the big picture. The council has the flexibility to adjust and go forward as needed, 232 while still holding future applicants to the current standard. 233 Councllmember Wright wanted them to make sure they were on solid ground for varying from the 234 standard. 235 Mayor Thompson said they didn't need to decide tonight. He suggested they do more research in 236 the code and design standards. 237 Heather Lehnig asked if the sidewalk attached to curb would pass ADA since the angle would be 238 different. Councllmember Glover said, as a licensed engineer, that an ADA ramp can be attached at a 239 corner with a sidewalk attached to curb. The mayor said the engineer wouldn't put together a design 240 with his name on it if it didn't comply with ADA. Steve Thunell informed that the city engineer said there 241 are ADA exceptions for driveways. 242 Councllmember Milbank agreed they need to be careful not to violate the city's ordinance. He 243 supported doing more research. Otherwise, he would support the sidewalk on back of curb. 244 Mayor Thompson reminded he is going to go into negotiations on the Chugg property and will 245 fight for what is best for River Heights. But he needs to go into It with credibility. He said the city code 246 should be their guide, as well as listening to residents before making their decision. 247 Councllmember Glover will follow up with a cost estimate for the 4-foot sidewalk, attached to 248 curb on both blocks. He will put the information in the Drive. Mayor Thompson will review the city code 249 and come with a detailed report breaking down the code and standards. 250 251 252 Councllmember Milbank asked If 400 South had been designated as a collector road. He was told the General Plan had not been adopted yet, so there was a likelihood that the designation could be changed. They were waiting for a traffic study to help make their decision, which should be done soon. t 253 Mayor Thompson expressed gratitude for the public coming out and giving their opinions. He said 254 he would struggle with adding a park strip and sidewalk because of how much yard it would take away 255 from current residents. 256 An Ordinance to Adopt Changes to the Citv Code of River Heights. Utah: Councllmember Wright 257 reviewed the few code changes recommended by the Planning Commission. A minor change was 258 suggested. 259 Councilmember Wright moved to "adopt Ordinance 3-2022, An Ordinance to Adopt Changes to 260 the City Code of River Heights, Utah with the deletion of'up to and' in 5-2-1 definitions." 261 Councilmember Milbank seconded the motion, which carried with Gallup, Glover, Mathews, Milbank, 262 and Wright in favor. No one opposed. 263 Mavor Presents 2022 Budget Revisions to the Council; Mayor Thompson said this item was 264 removed from the agenda. 265 Discuss Capital Proiects and Re-Rank Capital Projects for Completion in FY 2022: Mayor Thompson 266 and the council reviewed the current list of projects as adjustments were made. He said they need to 267 update their numbers because of cost hikes. The most recent numbers were $300,000-400,000 for their 268 biggest priority projects. Discussion was held on the Stewart Hill Park amount. Councilmember Milbank 269 said they could use more money for phase one of the park. He would argue that the water improvements 270 should come out of the water budget. The contractor would like to start ordering materials. They are 271 three months out after ordering water line supplies. It's likely this will move Into the next fiscal year. 272 They agreed to leave $200,000,just in case. t River Heights City Council Meeting,5/3/22 • Councilmember Wright suggested looking at the 400 South sidewalk,the well improvements,and Stewart Hill Park as the three projects that will span this year and next. It was his opinion they focus on 275 those items and adjust the money where needed. Likely they will need more money than what they have 276 budgeted. 277 Mayor Thompson reminded that he will implement a rigid infrastructure plan so that every year 278 they are chipping away at projects they need to stay on top of. He will get his information from the city 279 engineer. It will be important to him that they stick to it. 280 Councilmember Gallup didn't want the Old Church demolition to get left behind. 281 Mayor Thompson jumped ahead to Discussing the Confirmation of the Bid for Phase One of 282 Stewart Hill Park: Councilmember Mathews asked if the Stewart Hill water improvements would come 283 out of the water budget or capital projects. The mayor said If there was a long-term benefit and need for 284 the water line, they should take it out of the water budget. If its installation was just for the park, then it 285 should come out of capital projects. PWD Nelson said it will certainly help the water system, but right 286 now it's not a high priority. The replacement of the 500 East water line will need to be part of the well 287 project, which will be an additional cost for 2023 in the water system. He guessed they would be looking 288 at $800,000-900,000 in projects for water next year. The mayor suggested they might split the cost 289 between water and parks. Councilmember Mathews was concerned because the lower well costs have 290 gone up and felt this was a higher priority. 291 Mayor Thompson said they are looking at about $700,000 for capital projects next year. 292 Councilmember Wright felt there would be enough for the three main projects between the two years. 293 He suggested the park water line could be its own line item on the capital projects list They all agreed to back off adding to the projects list for next year since the well cost had gone up from $190,000 to $700,000. Mayor Thompson guessed sales tax revenue would be higher than projected and that they would have enough money for the capital projects. He liked the idea of having the park water line as a 297 separate line item in capital projects. He was really concerned about infrastructure projects. 298 Councilmember Milbank said they will only get about $75,000 from RAPZ. With $200,000 in 299 capital projects. It doesn't reach the $349,000 bid. He suggested they eliminate a sidewalk, powering the 300 parking lot, and the decorative fence on the east side. The cost of the water line and two connectors was 301 $83,000. If the park fund didn't need to cover this, they would have enough money in the capital projects 302 fund. He was anxious to get back to the contractor on acceptance of the bid so parts could be ordered. 303 Mayor Thompson was concerned about eliminating the lights in the parking lot. He didn't feel 304 they should skimp when it came to safety and security. He'd like them to decide where the money will 305 come from for the water line. 306 Councilmember Gallup asked for clarification on the bids and the difference they were missing. 307 Councilmember Wright pointed out they won't know for a few weeks how much they can spend 308 this year. He explained the two years capital project costs conceptually. He was trying to figure if they 309 can give an okay for the park bid so they can move forward. 310 Councilmember Glover gave an estimate of $100,000 for the 400 South sidewalk project. 311 They discussed leaving out the sidewalk on the park project. PWD Nelson agreed since they still 312 need a place for their supply piles. Councilmember Wright said the area has become a dumping ground, 313 which needs to be addressed. Mayor Thompson will have this on the next agenda. 314 Mayor Thompson felt uneasy showing the public that $83,000 will be spent for a water project, • 315 Councilmember Milbank moved that"the 8"connecting water line and connectors under included In the park development. - Stewart Hill Park, which total $83,000, yvili be paid for by the water fund." Councilmember Wright River Heights City Council Meeting, 5/3/22 318 seconded the motion, which carried with Glover, Gallup, Mllbank, and Wright in favor. Matthews 319 320 opposed. • Mayor Thompson suggested the capital projects could pay the water fund back later. t 321 Councilmember Glover moved to "accept the Stewart Hill Park Phase One bid from Cache Valley 322 Excavation with the removal of alternate #1,item 12A,the 5"thick concrete pavement; and item #21, 323 decorative metal fence."- Councilmember Milbank seconded the motion, which carried with Gallup, 324 Glover, Mathews, Milbank, and Wright in favor. 325 Councilmember Mathews was concerned that they would have enough money In the water fund 326 to pay for the lower well. Mayor Thompson assured that the capital projects fund would pay back the 327 water fund in the amount of $83,000 and a lot more to go towards the water project. 328 Councilmember Wright brought up a concern on the budget under 51-40-35, Capital Projects. 329 They wondered where the additional $495,000 came from. PWD Nelson suggested It might have been 330 from the ARPA funds. 331 Newsletter/Fiver Distribution Rate Increase Request: Councilmember Glover read Spencer 332 Rasmussen's request for a raise in delivering newsletters from $130 to $175. 333 Councilmember Milbank moved,to "pay Spencer Rasmussen $200 for newsletter deliveries." 334 Councilmember Wright seconded the motion which carried with Gallup, Mathews, Milbank, and Wright 335 in favor. Glover opposed. 336 Councilmember Glover opposed because he wanted to pay $210. 337 The meeting adjourned at 9:50 p.m. 338 339 340 341 342 Sheila Lind, Rect m % 343 344 345 346 347 Jason Thompson,'Mayor t River Heights City Council Meeting,S/Zlll River Heights City Bills To Be Paid May 2, 2022 Payee Description Admin.

I have considered the things 1 like and don't like about this job. I would like to ask for a raise to deliver flyers because I have been dependable and because it's so difficult during fall and winter weather. 1 would like the price to deliver flyers to increase from 130.00 to 175.00. The price to deliver extra pages could remain the same since I prepare those extra flyers at home. If the price to deliver flyers was increased, it would make it easier for me to do it during the hard times of year and not get so discouraged. Thank you for considering this increase. Respectfully, Spencer Rasmussen Sheila LInd <office(S)rlverheights.org> Fri, Apr 8, 2:17 PM to Sharlie Sharlie, I've thought for a few years that the newsletter deliverers are not paid what they are worth. While Todd was the mayor, he wouldn't give them a raise since they are his kids. Now that Todd is not the mayor I think they should be strongly considered for a raise. This is their third year doing the job and I REALLY appreciate their dependability. It has caused me much stress in the past when I can't count on the delivery people to do the job. I wish the Rasmussens would do it forever! They are currently paid $130 each time and $20 more for an additional flyer. Please see Spencer's proposal below. Thanks!

To: <tvsonQlover@riverheiQhts.ora> ^iasonthompson@riverheiahts.ora> Tyson & Mayor Thompson- Thankyou for holding a meeting about 400 south sidewalk for the citizens that actually live on this side of the street in River Heights. We were not so lucky,when we learned our street was being torn up, and sidewalk was leaving with the last construction. I am not able to attend this meeting, and wanted my thoughts heard. I'm disappointed in River Heights for using the funds to make a beautiful street, and update with curb and gutter, and leave decision making away from the citizens that It actually effects. Now here we are,funds used again to survey the street 2x, pay a company to do measurements, to see what it will look like. Money again to tear up all the sod, and sprinkler lines, trees and vegetation that has been planted for almost 2 years time. Many streets in River Heights don't even have 1 sidewalk. I DONT want a sidewalk on the north side of the street. Someone must have complained about wanting It back, but money is better spent elsewhere. Please leave the newly finished road, curb and^gutter as is, and do nothing. The street looks nice. You can't appease everyone. The city made the decision with the construction, and need to stand by it now, move on, and be done. ^ • 400 east on the east side doesn't have a sidewalk on both sides of the road. It's a main road. 700 south has no continuous sidewalk, and looks horrible. It's again, a main street into River heights. i know you are inheriting problems from the previous council, and mayor and for that I'm sorry. Thanks for taking my thoughts into consideration. BEST! Kristen Scott 435-213-5344 5/11/22,10:00 AM Fwd: Replace sidewalk - office@riverhelghls.org - River Heights City Mail From: Wendy Traveller <wendvtraveiierf3>vahoo.com> Date: Tue, May 3. 2022 at 4:52 PM Subject: Replace sidewalk To: iasonthompson@rlverheiQhts.orq <iasonthompson@riverhelohts.orq> 1 live at 388 S 400 E in an apartment and I am writing to you with concerns about the removal of our sidewalk. I have to walk In the road to retrieve my mail which Is dangerous, I've almost been hit by a vehicle several times. The neighborhood children are at risk as well. This was not a well thought plan when executed not to mention a costly mistake. As I would not look forward to the inconvenience of a lengthy conversation project again 1 would endure in the name of safety. I hope you will listen to your constituents whi actually have to live with this unsafe issue and do the right thing. Sincerely A concerned citizen Wendy Traveller 5/11/22,9:59 AM Fwd:Sidewalk on 400 south - ofTice@riverheights.org - River Heights City Mail From: M R<aprillspring@hotmail.com> Date: Men,May 2,2022 at 8:28 PM Subject; Sidewalk on 400 south To: jasonthompson@riverheights.Qrg <jasonthompson@riverheights.org> Hi Jason: I definitely"do not want a sidewalk put-In front of my home at,481 E 400 S. 1 do not have the means to pay for it and as it is the longest property on this road I do not waht the worry or cost of maintaining It In the winter, especially where I am a senior - nor do I want to have to depend on someone else to maintain It. Also,j don't see that the city has the means to pay for this expense. I feel that the children can easily walk across the road so that they are on a sidewalk. One side of the road Is more than adequate for a sidewalk. If the vote goes toward putting In a sidewalk I hope that you can keep It just east of 500 East. I especially am opposed to Johnson's doing the work. Their equipment was not maintained and was constantly leaking grease and oil. I am very sensitive to petroleum products so this made me very sick from the VOCs. Their "topsoll" was loaded with noxious weeds and was a heavy clay that killed any lawn in spite of watering it heavily. The workers were friendly, but the company was very rude and disagreeable. The person that was hired out for the cement curbing was using my property to dispose of cement sludge, glass, and debris. They were Incredibly slow and stretched the job from spring to fall. It was terrible. The person.that worked on my sprinklers never fixed them right, so Clayton had to come out and fix it. If I get voted out and a sidewalk is put In I want it next to the curb. I do not want to lose any of my trees to a sidewalk, nor do I want to lose more of the lawn than necessary. Trees and lawns are aesthetic and beautiful, cement is not attractive. .
