B. Invocation: By Council Member, Don Shelton

C. Mayor and Council Coordination
Council Member Shelton shared something he learned from Director Garrison at the water event
today. He learned the system has the capability and capacity to clean the aquafer underneath us
that is contaminated. We don’t own any water rights or wells, but he suggested thinking about
that as another possibility for a source of water. If they are going to acquire water rights and drill
wells, they would of course need to figure out funding. He also noted that they are improving the
concept right now, with the science completed and proven. The battle is now political and he
thinks they ought to, in coordination with the ULCT Conference this fall for an outing or
roadshow feature, go out to the site. In addition, the Jordan River Commission should visit the
site, they should invite high school science teachers to bring their classes out, etc. He would like

to see them try to work on the political side of the equation since the science side has been
completed.

E.1. Transportation Master Plan. (By Deputy City Engineer, Jeremy Nielson)
Deputy City Engineer Jeremy Nielson Said the plan is to present this to the Planning
Commission on July 9, and to come to the City Council the first meeting in August for approval.
Jeremy Searle (WCG) – reviewed the City’s Draft Transportation Master Plan from the City
Website at the following link:
https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/d384f4a5f18c4db397402f2db1c36b9c.
Council Member Tamara Zander joined the meeting during Mr. Searle’s presentation.
Council Member Zander shared her concerns with the number of proposed lights on 11100 South

members and the mayor shared the same concerns.

City Council Study Meeting
June 18, 2024
Engineer Nielson shared there are plans to re-stripe the street to allow two lanes in both
directions. The council and staff also discussed potential parking issues when the road is re-
striped and on street parking is eliminated in some areas.
Fred Philpot – Reviewed his prepared presentation on impact fees (Attachment A).
Mr. Searle added there are many WFRC projects listed, and WFRC funds a good portion of those
projects. However, the city has a match. Currently, they are assuming a 15% match, but it is only
required at 7% but the city tends to pay more based on history and they bumped that match up to
15% which could allow fees to be reduced.
Mr. Philpot noted he needed to correct a $1.4 million allocation for Daybreak, as it should be a
negative allocation which would reduce a cost per trip calculation in his presentation.
Council Member Johnson motioned to recess the City Council Study Meeting and move to
Executive Closed Session. Council Member McGuire seconded the motion; vote was 5-0,
unanimous in favor.
