Mayor and Council Coordination Mayor Ramsey said she is not aware of the city having a “tagline.” She would love to have a conversation about coming up with one. Assistant City Manager Dustin Lewis noted that other cities have them, for example, Centerville’s is “Friendly city beside the Great Salt Lake.” He will add this to their discussion during strategic planning.

Assistant City Manager Lewis said the MOU was for the Bentley Dealership, allowing them to work out some things now before deadlines change. Mayor Ramsey noted the City Policy Resolution is one that is done every year on ethics. She asked if the Tier 2 Public Safety and Firefighter pick up election is the difference we have to cover. Assistant City Manager Lewis said that’s correct, we pick up just like the other cities. Mayor Ramsey noted they have gone over the final budget quite a bit. Council Member Brad Marlor asked if we have had any comments from residents regarding the budget. Council Member Tamara Zander said there was a heckler in the parade. Mayor Ramsey said she knows the gentleman, and actually invited him to discuss the budget with him. Assistant City Manager Lewis said he doesn’t recall any comments specifically about budget line items, the comments were mostly “don’t raise my taxes” types of comments. He will check with CFO Sunil Naidu to make sure nothing was missed. Mayor Ramsey said she received an email from the planning commission, specifically Chair Michele Hollist that the commission was very supportive of the text amendment and agreed that the changes will make for a stronger Planning Commission with the inclusion of the mayor’s appointee. Chair Hollist did mention that with district changes, each council member’s commission member might not live in their district anymore, and that person can be grandfathered in for the rest of their term, or changed. They proposed the idea to her potentially having her appointment be that person, however she has already spoken to someone else about it before the districting situation came up. Council Member Marlor believes the current commissioners should be grandfathered in for the current terms. Council Member Jason McGuire said that his intention for his appointee was to have her grandfathered in. South Jordan City 3 City Council Study Meeting June 21, 2022 Council Member Zander motioned to recess the City Council Study Meeting and move to Executive Closed Session, Council Member Marlor seconded the motion; Vote was unanimous in favor.
