Erie Walker (Resident) requested that the city consider creating a collection point for fluorescent light tube recycling. Currently, the only known drop-off locations in Salt Lake Valley are the Trans-Jordan Landfill, which is not convenient, and the Salt Lake Landfill. Mr. Walker noted that while some stores accept compact fluorescent bulbs, they do not take larger tubes. The Salt Lake County Library system previously collected them but no longer does. Additionally, outdated and incorrect online information makes finding recycling locations difficult. Even the South Jordan City website contains a dead link to the Salt Lake County recycling page. A household hazardous waste facility in Sandy may accept fluorescent tubes, but its website lacks clear details. The South Jordan City website only lists antifreeze, batteries, oil, and paint as accepted hazardous waste. He suggested the city establish a drop-off site for fluorescent tubes and transport them to an appropriate facility. He also recommended expanding services to accept household hazardous waste and electronic waste, as those items are similarly difficult to recycle. He thanked the council for their time and consideration. Catherine Campbell (Resident) noted this was the first meeting she has attended and expressed appreciation for the experience. She acknowledged the inclusion of a prayer at the beginning and noted that while she found it meaningful, not all attendees are members of the LDS faith. She suggested offering a more inclusive prayer that is open to all. Mayor Ramsey clarified that the prayer is open to all and reiterated that anyone is welcome to offer it. She emphasized that the invitation is extended to anyone who wishes to participate, ensuring a variety of voices. Catherine Campbell inquired about a security measure implemented at Park Place near the gym. She recalled receiving a letter about two years ago stating that a vote would take place during a city meeting regarding security for the area. However, the meeting was later canceled, and security was implemented without a vote. She expressed concern that residents were not given the opportunity to participate in the decision and asked whom she should contact for more information. City Manager Dustin Lewis stated that the security measure at Park Place does not South Jordan City 4 City Council Meeting March 18, 2025 appear to be a city decision. He noted that it is likely an HOA matter rather than something implemented by the city. However, he offered to review the letter if provided. Catherine Campbell said they aren’t in an HOA and said she would look into it further. She then asked whether city officials ever attend Democratic functions, as a Republican event had been mentioned earlier in the meeting. Mayor Ramsey explained that attendance at political events is a personal choice. Council members and officials can choose to attend any event, whether Republican, Democratic, or otherwise, just like any other resident. Catherine Campbell asked whether South Jordan has any Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) committees or initiatives. She acknowledged the broader national conversation on the topic and expressed interest in having opportunities for residents to voice their concerns. She inquired whether any upcoming town hall meetings would allow for discussions on these matters. Mayor Ramsey noted that the City Council meetings are where the public can come and engage. Mayor Ramsey thanked Ms. Campbell for her comments and for attending the meeting. She reiterated that anyone is welcome to offer a reverence and encouraged Ms. Campbell if she was interested to contact the City Recorder to arrange it. Darwin Overson (Resident) My concern is about traffic in our neighborhood. The road near the Park Palisade is heavily used as a thoroughfare for nearby developments, offices, the gym, and recreational activities. While these amenities are great, our neighborhood has become a parking overflow area and a cut-through for traffic. We have a very serious speeding problem along that road. I’d like to know what steps we can take to petition for speed bump installation. City Engineer Brad Klavano said the best way to address this concern is to reach out to him or traffic engineer, Jeremy Nielson. Noting the city has a traffic committee that meets once a month to review resident concerns and complaints. It’s a staff meeting, so residents don’t attend, but we take every citizen comment very seriously. They conduct speed studies, work with the police department, and evaluate possible solutions. He noted he’d be happy to meet to discuss this further. Mayor Ramsey closed the public comment portion of the meeting. G. Action Items: G.1. Resolution R2025-14, Prohibiting the use of an ignition source, including fireworks, lighters, matches, sky lanterns, and smoking materials, in certain areas. (By Fire Chief, Chris Dawson) Fire Chief Chris Dawson reported that, as required by state law, the city must submit firework- restricted areas to the county and State Fire Marshal by May 1. He proposed maintaining the same resolution and restrictions as in previous years, with no changes. He emphasized the ongoing risk of wildland-urban interface fires, noting that South Jordan remains vulnerable. The department has assisted other communities nationally and continues mitigation efforts locally. Past restrictions have been effective in reducing fire incidents in designated areas. He explained that wet years lead to increased vegetation growth, which dries out by summer, while dry years create highly flammable conditions. The city aims to manage these hazards through continued restrictions. An interactive firework restriction map remains available year-round, allowing residents to enter their address and view restricted areas. South Jordan City 5 City Council Meeting March 18, 2025 Council Member Shelton inquired about the firework restrictions near Bingham Creek Regional Park. He noted that while fireworks are prohibited within the park, the adjacent street in his neighborhood is not included in the restricted area. He expressed concern that aerial fireworks could easily drift into the park under the right wind conditions. He asked whether it would be appropriate to extend the restriction to the first street immediately north of the park within the subdivision. He acknowledged that this change might be unpopular with some residents but felt it was worth considering. Chief Dawson stated that the department aims to be as conservative and reasonable as possible while also considering recommendations on a case-by-case basis. He confirmed that the area in question would be reviewed to determine whether its inclusion aligns with state law. Council Member Shelton asked if the distance from the wildland interface was 200 feet, noting that he recalled reading that figure in the materials. Chief Dawson confirmed that the 200-foot distance is correct for designated interface areas. He noted that parks are treated differently, as they are government property and have been excluded from this designation. Council Member Shelton stated that the Bingham Creek Regional Park area is essentially a wildland interface and noted that the road is not 200 feet from it. Chief Dawson agreed to review the area to ensure accuracy and make any necessary adjustments to the map, pending approval. Council Member Zander motioned to approve Resolution R2025-14, Prohibiting the use of an ignition source, including fireworks, lighters, matches, sky lanterns, and smoking materials, in certain areas with an amendment to add the street(s) mentioned by Council member Shelton near Bingham Creek Regional Park. Council Member Shelton seconded the motion. Roll Call Vote Council Member Zander - Yes Council Member Shelton - Yes Council Member Harris - Yes Council Member Johnson - Yes Council Member McGuire – Yes The motion passed with a vote of 5-0. G.2. Resolution R2025-15, Authorizing the Mayor to sign the Metro Fire Agency Interlocal Agreement amending the terms related to the Operations Advisory Committee and the budget. (By Fire Chief, Chris Dawson) Fire Chief Chris Dawson provided background information on the existing interlocal agreement for the Metro Fire Agency, which includes all municipal fire departments in Salt Lake County except Salt Lake City. He explained that Metro Fire, established in 2006, facilitates cooperation among fire departments in specialty emergency services such as hazardous materials response, technical rescue, and wildland firefighting. The agency also enables departments to share operational and training resources, reducing costs by allowing cities to collectively purchase specialized equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE), medical supplies, and uniforms. South Jordan City 6 City Council Meeting March 18, 2025 The proposed updates primarily address clarifications in the agreement. The last agreement, signed in 2020, included boilerplate language regarding the Operations Advisory Committee, which functions as an informal staff meeting to advise the Metro trustees. Consultation with the city attorney and other municipal attorneys confirmed that the committee does not need to adhere to Open Meetings laws. Additionally, language referencing a Metro Fire Agency budget and employees was removed, as the agency does not manage public funds or employ staff. Instead, cities allocate funds according to their own policies. Chief Dawson emphasized that these are minor adjustments to align the agreement with current practices while maintaining the same operational structure. Council Member Shelton confirmed that there is no budget but noted that the agreement includes provisions for managing a budget if one were ever established. He also pointed out that the agreement spans 50 years, which seems lengthy, but acknowledged that it includes an out clause. Chief Dawson confirmed that the agreement includes an out clause, allowing cities to leave Metro Fire entirely. Additionally, individual cities or agencies can opt out of specific contracts or provisions within the Metro Fire Agency, ensuring that no entity is bound to all decisions made by the agency. Council Member Shelton stated that participation in Metro Fire is based on its benefits to the city. If a particular program does not provide a benefit, the city is not obligated to participate. Chief Dawson confirmed that a city can opt out of specific programs while still maintaining the overall benefits of being a member of the Metro Fire Agency. Council Member Shelton motioned to approve Resolution R2025-15, Authorizing the Mayor to sign the Metro Fire Agency Interlocal Agreement amending the terms related to the Operations Advisory Committee and the budget. Council Member Johnson seconded the motion. Council Member Harris expressed support for the Metro Fire Agency, highlighting the benefits of bulk purchasing and cost savings through collaboration with other cities. Mayor Ramsey noted that the Metro Fire Agency’s advisory structure is similar to informal councils of mayors in Salt Lake, Davis, and Utah Counties, where leaders gather to discuss mutual issues and exchange ideas, without making binding decisions. She pointed out that the Metro Fire Agency also offers added value through collective buying power. Roll Call Vote Council Member Shelton - Yes Council Member Johnson - Yes Council Member Harris - Yes Council Member Zander - Yes Council Member McGuire – Yes The motion passed with a vote of 5-0. H. Public Hearing Items: H.1. Resolution R2025-16, Amending the Transportation Master Plan for South Jordan City. (By City Engineer & Director of Engineering, Brad Klavano) South Jordan City 7 City Council Meeting March 18, 2025 City Engineer Brad Klavano reviewed prepared presentation (Attachment A) explaining that last year, a solutions development study was conducted for Shields Lane, involving numerous public meetings and outreach, as well as work sessions with the City Council. The study concluded that a multi-use path separated from the road, with a narrowed road, would be the best option. To support future grants and funding, the city proposes adding this project to the transportation master plan, which would give more credibility to the study's findings. The amendment involves updating the Active Transportation phasing recommendations table to include the multi-use path on Shields Lane. He explained that the other item (Attachment B) being proposed is related to the reconstruction and realignment of U-111. The city has been working for about two years with property owners, UDOT, and neighboring cities to define future intersections. He noted the importance of having these agreements in place early to prevent complications later. The agreements were signed by South Jordan and UDOT last year, with Herriman also participating. He highlighted that while the majority of the project is in South Jordan, a small portion is in Herriman. He provided additional details regarding the agreement for the reconstruction of U- 111, covering the Daybreak, Shoreline, and Rio Tinto annexed areas. He explained that the agreement defines the future intersection locations and the placement of traffic signals. The project is expected to begin bidding in the next month or two, with construction slated to start in the fall and last approximately two years. He shared that there had been significant negotiations over the project’s scope, as initially only one lane in each direction was funded. However, after discussions, the project was modified to include three lanes with a turn lane in the middle, though the ultimate goal is to have a five-lane section. UDOT is purchasing the necessary right- of-way for this expansion, but only the three lanes will be built initially. He acknowledged that it would have been ideal for a five-lane section and multi-use path to be constructed right away, but funding constraints prevent that at this time. The agreement also required that the project be included in the transportation master plan to ensure these changes are formally recognized. He indicated that the resolution before the council would incorporate these modifications into the transportation master plan. Mayor Ramsey opened the public hearing. There were no public comments. Mayor Ramsey closed the public hearing. Council Member Johnson sought clarification regarding the locations of signals mentioned and the corridor agreement. City Engineer Klavano explained that these locations are part of the corridor agreement, which outlines where traffic signals will be placed. He clarified that the signals are located around 1,100 feet north of each other, with approximate locations given for signals at 12300 South and 12600 South. He acknowledged that the exact positions of the signals aren't set in stone, as adjustments will be made during the process, but he emphasized that the given distances provide a general idea of their planned locations. City Engineer Klavano explained that the traffic signals would only be installed when warranted, based on traffic volumes on the streets. He described the challenge of planning for the U-111 extension, which currently ends in a cul-de-sac. While UDOT initially wanted to design the extension as an expressway without connectivity, the cities worked with UDOT to find a compromise, considering the areas lower traffic volumes due to its more open, undeveloped nature. He emphasized that the decision was to move forward with a plan that allows for flexibility. The signals may not all be needed immediately, as it will depend on how the area South Jordan City 8 City Council Meeting March 18, 2025 develops. He mentioned that they preferred to have the plan in place with the option to adjust if necessary, rather than pushing for a more extensive approach from the start. Mayor Ramsey expressed appreciation for the approach, acknowledging that while the area currently appears wide and open, it is expected to undergo intense development in the future. She pointed out that as the area grows, the need for proper access and connectivity will become crucial, especially since the extension currently ends in a cul-de-sac. She recognized the importance of planning for future traffic needs to ensure smooth access in and out of the area. Council Member Zander pointed out that she had not considered the fact that the road currently dead ends. She clarified that, as it stands, people either have to travel east or west or turn around and head back north. City Engineer Klavano explained that Herriman is considering extending the road south to 13400 South, but it would transition into an arterial road at that point. The state road would end at 12600 South, and there are plans for the state road to eventually extend from 12600 (Herriman Parkway) all the way to Bangerter. This would create a loop, with the road serving both north-south and east-west traffic. Council Member Zander asked for clarification on the location of the access to Butterfield Canyon. City Engineer Klavano clarified that the access to Butterfield Canyon is located further to the south. Council Member Zander asked if the four-way intersection of 11800 South and Bacchus Highway is entirely within South Jordan. City Engineer Klavano clarified that it is not; the intersection involves Herriman and South Jordan, and South Jordan does not control all four corners. Council Member Zander clarified that with the realignment of U-111, at the final alignment, the four corners of 11800 South and U-111 would be split between South Jordan and Herriman. The two north corners would belong to South Jordan, while the two south corners would be Herriman. City Engineer Klavano explained that while the south boundaries of South Jordan and Herriman are not very far apart, Herriman does have some property in the area. He clarified that this is due to Herriman purchasing land where their water tanks are located, which is west of the U-111 alignment. When Rio Tinto developed the area, they included that property within Herriman's boundaries. Council Member Harris made a comment regarding the lane construction, agreeing with the idea of starting with the five lanes right from the beginning. He expressed that it would make more sense and potentially cost less in the long run than having to redo the road later. He acknowledged the challenges of road construction, noting the disruption it causes to the community and residents. While understanding that the available funding limits the project scope, he emphasized that the council would prefer the road to be constructed with the full five lanes from the outset to avoid future reconstruction as the area develops. City Engineer Klavano acknowledged that the same argument had been made with the Mountain View Corridor, where the state only planned to build two lanes in each direction. He mentioned that the state’s position was that the freeway would reach capacity the day it opens. He explained that this decision was driven by the state’s funding process, and he expressed uncertainty about how to address that limitation. South Jordan City 9 City Council Meeting March 18, 2025 Mayor Ramsey asked City Attorney Ryan Loose for his opinion on the situation, specifically regarding the issue of the five-lane road and the current plan for three lanes due to funding limitations. She wondered if there might be enough time to work on leveraging additional state funding, perhaps through the next legislative session, if the issue is addressed throughout the year. City Attorney Loose asked when the construction would begin and when the project would go out to bid. City Engineer Klavano confirmed that the project would go out to bid in the spring, with construction starting in the fall. He added that the first eight months of construction would likely be focused on grading. The discussion between City Attorney Loose, City Engineer Klavano, and Mayor Ramsey focused on the potential to request an alternative bid for the road project, allowing for both three- lane and five-lane options to be considered. They acknowledged that while funding for five lanes isn’t currently available, having a bid for both options would provide a clearer cost estimate and allow the city to explore potential funding sources in the next legislative session. City Attorney Loose suggested formally requesting UDOT to include an alternative bid, emphasizing that the cost and timeline impact should be minimal. City Engineer Klavano mentioned he would bring up the request in his upcoming meeting with UDOT Region Director Robert Stewart, acknowledging that the decision might need to be escalated. City Attorney Loose emphasized the importance of following up with a written request, even if the initial response is unfavorable, to document the request for potential further advocacy. Council Member Johnson inquired whether the request for a dual bid would apply to the entire project or only the South Jordan portion. City Engineer Klavano confirmed that the request would be for the entire project and Herriman would be supportive as well. Mayor Ramsey clarified that her request was not based on the assumption that the city could easily secure an additional $50 million but acknowledged the challenge of obtaining such funding. She emphasized that while it would be difficult, she was not afraid to work toward it. By having an alternative bid, the city would have a clear cost estimate to use as a target, allowing them to explore potential funding options and begin efforts to secure additional resources. Council Member Shelton inquired about the timing of the 9800 South improvement project. City Engineer Klavano stated that a request for STIP funds had been submitted for the 9800 South improvement project, covering the area from Bangerter to 2700 West. While the request appeared favorable during committee review, it was still awaiting a final vote. If approved, funding would likely not be available until 2029 or 2030, though there may be opportunities to move the timeline forward. He noted that the project had received strong recommendations and broad support. Additionally, the city was exploring Utah Trail Network (UTN) funds as another potential funding source, though the requirement for UDOT to design and bid the project added significant costs. Council Member McGuire is motioned to approve Resolution R2025-16, Amending the Transportation Master Plan for South Jordan City. Council Member Johnson seconded the motion. South Jordan City 10 City Council Meeting March 18, 2025 Roll Call Vote Council Member McGuire - Yes Council Member Johnson - Yes Council Member Harris - Yes Council Member Shelton - Yes Council Member Zander – Yes The motion passed with a vote of 5-0. Mayor Ramsey expressed appreciation for the effort to document agreements and decisions, emphasizing the importance of memorializing such information due to turnover in personnel. She noted that without proper documentation, institutional knowledge can be lost as people retire or change jobs. She acknowledged that this issue is not unique to UDOT but is relevant across all areas of government and organizations. She concluded by stating that maintaining thorough records is a good policy and a beneficial practice. H.2. Ordinance 2025-08, Re-adopting the City's Construction Standards and Specifications. (By City Engineer & Director of Engineering, Brad Klavano) City Engineer Klavano provided background information and reviewed the staff report regarding the annual ordinance update (Attachment C). He explained that in 2017, the Utah Legislature passed House Bill 232, requiring that construction standards and specifications be incorporated into land use regulations and adopted by the City Council through an ordinance. He stated that a committee meets several times a year to review the standards, discuss necessary updates, and address issues related to new technologies or ineffective practices. Each year, the ordinance is presented with modifications, though this year's changes are relatively minor. The primary updates include adjustments to water pipe installation standards, specifically removing the allowance for pipe deflection and instead requiring fittings and joints for curves. Another significant change involves adding a section on HDPE pipe installation and fusing procedures, which was previously unclear. Additional modifications include switching secondary valves from Mueller to AFC and clarifying that storm water maintenance plans must be submitted. Mayor Ramsey opened the public hearing. There were no public comments. Mayor Ramsey closed the public hearing. Council Member Zander expressed appreciation for City Engineer Klavano’s work, stating that the Council trusts his expertise. She acknowledged his role in ensuring the city's construction standards remain effective and compliant. City Engineer Klavano emphasized that the updates to the construction standards involve close collaboration between Engineering, Public Works, Fire, and Planning departments. He acknowledged that it is a team effort and noted that he is not an expert in all aspects of the standards. Council Member Harris highlighted that the city maintains high standards in South Jordan, emphasizing the quality of work and procedures in place. City Engineer Klavano praised the city's inspection team and Public Works department for their close collaboration, noting that while occasional issues arise, the infrastructure installed in South Jordan is generally of high quality. South Jordan City 11 City Council Meeting March 18, 2025 Council Member Harris motioned to approve Ordinance 2025-08, Re-adopting the City's Construction Standards and Specifications. Council Member Zander seconded the motion. Roll Call Vote Council Member Harris - Yes Council Member Zander - Yes Council Member Johnson - Yes Council Member Shelton - Yes Council Member McGuire – Yes The motion passed with a vote of 5-0. Mayor Ramsey expressed gratitude to all departments involved in the process, acknowledging the hard work and expertise of the teams. She emphasized the importance of collaboration and how residents benefit from the high standards, even if they don’t see the details. I. Staff Reports and Calendaring Items Communication Manager Rachael Van Cleave provided an update on the upcoming event, expressing hope that the weather will cooperate for the installation of art, potentially happening on Monday. She mentioned that there will be visual mock-ups available regardless of the weather. The event will celebrate the partnership between UDOT, UTA, and LHM, with a special focus on the new TRAX station. Mayor Ramsey and others from UDOT, UTA, and LHM will board the train at Daybreak Station and travel to the new station. Council members are invited to join the celebration at the East parking lot near the new station. Manager Van Cleave assured the council that they would receive further details and an invitation from UTA with more information on timing and arrival instructions. She also mentioned a tent and designated parking for the event. She also mentioned that LHM is organizing a tour of the ballpark for those interested in seeing its progress. The event, scheduled for March 26, will start at 1 p.m., with media coverage expected. She will ensure that council members receive all the necessary details ahead of the event and will coordinate their arrival time to ensure they are there a little earlier. City Manager Dustin Lewis provided an update on the Fullmer boxing gym project, noting that the facility is nearing completion. A ribbon-cutting ceremony is being planned for the coming weeks, and once the details are finalized, he will send the council members an email with the information, along with a calendar invite to reserve the date. Mayor Ramsey acknowledged the long-awaited completion of the former boxing gym, highlighting the significant effort that went into raising funds for its construction. Council Member Johnson motioned to adjourn the March 18, 2025 City Council Meeting. Council Member Zander seconded the motion. Vote was 5-0, unanimous in favor.
