ADJOURN REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MEETING AND RETURN TO CITY COUNCIL MEETING I. Public Hearing Items I.1. Resolution R2024-19, Approving the 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan for the use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds and authorizing the City to enter into a Grant Agreement for the use of CDBG Funds. (By Associate Director of Strategy & Budget, Katie Olson) Associate Director of Strategy & Budget, Katie Olson reviewed background information from the Council Report. Mayor Ramsey opened the public hearing for comments. Courtney Dallin (Representative for The Road Home) – I am here representing The Road Home in our application for the $10,000 for our three resource centers. During fiscal year 2023 we served 5288 individuals, 15 of which came directly from South Jordan before touching our services. We anticipate serving about 20 with this upcoming fiscal year 2025 application, and so we are hoping to renew that $10,000 for staffing and indirect costs. Brandon Vyall (Representative for South Valley Services) – I am the grants manager with South Valley Services. First and foremost I want to thank you guys for opening this up and allowing me to come speak in front of you today. To start off with some quick facts, for those of you who don’t know, domestic violence is a very common issue amongst our community here in Utah. One in three women and one in seven men reported experiencing domestic violence at some point in their lifetime; of those individuals, roughly 40% of them will become homeless at some point in their life, which makes them one of Utah’s largest homeless subpopulations. Additionally, since the year 2000 roughly 40% of Utah homicides have been domestic violence related. Domestic violence is linked to several physical and mental health disparities such as anxiety, depression, nonsexual reproductive health issues; it is a very multifaceted problem that requires a communitywide approach to address. For that reason, organizations like mine exist. South Valley Services is a domestic violence crisis shelter and service provider, we operate a crisis shelter as well as community based services such as case management, financial empowerment, childcare, and things of that nature. Last year our organization served 2600 individuals organization-wide, of those individuals I believe about 60 were from South Jordan. We served 480 individuals in our shelter directly, and provided individuals with 1800 hours of case management, 1500 hours of clinical services, 2400 hours of children’s advocacy, and hosted 240 education and prevention events reaching about 5000 people. Thank you for the opportunity to be funded again, our partnership goes years back so we are looking forward to continuing that and making a difference in our community. South Jordan City 6 Combined City Council & Redevelopment Meeting April 2, 2024 Mayor Ramsey closed the public hearing. Council Member Zander asked for clarifying details about the specific services provided by South Valley Services. Associate Director Olson responded that their name at one point was South Valley Sanctuary, and pointed out they are unique in that they are one the only shelters that also offers services for men. Council Member Zander asked how someone needing services would go about contacting them. Associate Director Olson noted they have a hotline, where many of their services are provided. They even have an “escape” button on their website for someone who might need those urgent services but could be watched and might need to exit the page quickly, along with many other protections in place. Mr. Vyall added that South Valley Sanctuary is their legal name, but DBA South Valley Services. They operate two shelters currently, with a new one in Tooele County. To contact them, anyone can go to their website at https://svsutah.org/ where all of their information is located and very accessible. The hotline is generally where individuals go for services, but they are also referred clients deemed high risk based on a lethality assessment questionnaire officers are required to complete when responding to a domestic violence call. Since they are the only shelter in Salt Lake County operating with a confidential address they are able to keep clients and staff safe when there are higher risks involved in sheltering someone. They are also the only shelter that provides services to men as well, along with being the only shelter that does community based services, meaning you don’t have to be staying in their shelter to receive the supportive services they can provide. They have community resource centers strategically placed throughout the community to offer services to individuals who may have a friend or family member to stay with, and they want to recognize that was probably a better option for them than having to stay in one of their shelters to access services. Council Member Zander motioned to approve Resolution R2024-19, Approving the 2024- 2025 Annual Action Plan for the use of Community Development Block Grant funds. Council Member Johnson seconded the motion. Roll Call Vote Yes - Council Member Zander Yes – Council Member Johnson Yes – Council Member Harris Absent – Council Member Shelton Absent – Council Member McGuire South Jordan City 7 Combined City Council & Redevelopment Meeting April 2, 2024 Motion passes 3-0, vote in favor; Council Members Shelton and McGuire were absent from the vote. I.2. Resolution R2024-08, Amending Section 5.44 of the South Jordan City Municipal Code. (By Director of City Commerce, Brian Preece) Director of City Commerce Brian Preece reviewed background information from the Council Report. Mayor Ramsey opened the public hearing for comments; there were no comments and the hearing was closed. Director Preece shared that they have had three licenses revoked in the past six weeks. Some are still under investigation, but from what they have learned from the Attorney General’s Office, as soon as the licenses are revoked they will be back in applying for a new license under a straw person. These changes are an attempt to strengthen the city’s ability to review the applications and deny licenses when needed, especially since many of the people applying are from out of state. There was a short discussion on the process of revoking a business license, and whether or not business can continue afterwards in any capacity. After the business is presented with the notice of closure they are shut down for 14 days and have 10 days from the notice of closure to appeal the revocation. If there are serious violations, as there were in the cases referenced above, the business is monitored during that time to ensure there are no additional violations of the code or law. Police Chief Jeff Carr added that the business owners and staff can be present at the business location during the closure, but they will be monitored to varying extents to ensure they are not continuing to violate any codes or break any laws. Council Member Zander asked how residents can be made aware of which businesses have had licenses revoked. Director Preece responded they can contact the city with inquiries, as it is a public process and those revocations are public record. However, there is no central place online someone could go to view that kind of information as these are the first business licenses the city has had to revoke in a very long time. City Attorney Ryan Loose shared a brief history, stating that previous code had assumed all massage parlors were nefarious businesses and was written with that in mind. Nowadays, there are many legitimate massage establishments who run great businesses, and the code has been adapted for that over the years. For the bad businesses that come in and operate inappropriately, they tend to travel throughout the county after being shut down in one spot, moving around in an attempt to continue operations. They always start by filing for a new license in the same spot, which all three here have already done with one filing an appeal past the 10 day period. When that doesn’t work, they eventually move elsewhere and the city is attempting to tighten up our South Jordan City 8 Combined City Council & Redevelopment Meeting April 2, 2024 code, so when violations are found the city can be there more often to monitor, inspect and make sure things get cleaned up. It will also help avoid the closed businesses from finding someone to immediately file for another business license from out of state, using someone who has no intent to be involved or manage the local business in person. The city can require those owners or representatives to be present and work their business to ensure good service. They also discussed the reasons for having certain establishments exempt from the code, like hotels with a spa, because the hotels will be overseeing those services and would be responsible for any issues. Council Member Harris motioned to approved Ordinance 2024-08, Amending Section 5.44 of the South Jordan Municipal Code. Council Member Zander seconded the motion. Roll Call Vote Yes - Council Member Harris Yes – Council Member Zander Yes – Council Member Johnson Absent – Council Member Shelton Absent – Council Member McGuire Motion passes 3-0, vote in favor; Council Members Shelton and McGuire were absent from the vote. J. Staff Reports and Calendaring Items Police Chief Jeff Carr gave an update on the Victim’s Advocate Program and reviewed his prepared presentation report with the council (Attachment D). He reported that during the last half of 2023 our victim advocates served about 125 victims and families of victims with the following breakdown: - 82% domestic violence - 9% child abuse, both physical and sexual - 6% sexual assault victims Our victim advocates help these victims through the whole court process, including being with them through impact statements, restitution, and going to court with them; they provide a very valuable service. We are lucky to have them, along with the grant to help pay for those services. There will be twice yearly updates such as this in the future and he invited any questions from the council. Council Member Zander asked staff about a reference to the Rushton Bike Path in the meeting packet, as it was not an item on the agenda tonight. City Recorder Anna Crookston shared that was included in the Annual Action Plan submitted by Associate Director Olson for item I.1. South Jordan City 9 Combined City Council & Redevelopment Meeting April 2, 2024 Engineering Director Brad Klavano shared that the gas line project on 1300 West will need to cross 9800 South. Staff tried to find ways to keep the intersection open safely, but that isn’t possible at this time. As a result, the intersection will be closed at 1300 West and 9800 South for two weekends, April 13-14 and April 20-21. There will be detours posted in advance. Council Member Johnson motioned to adjourn the April 2, 2024 City Council Meeting. Council Member Zander seconded the motion; vote was 3-0, unanimous in favor. Council Members Shelton and McGuire were absent from the vote. ADJOURNMENT The April 2, 2024 City Council Meeting adjourned at 8:33 p.m. This is a true and correct copy of the April 2, 2024 Combined City Council & Redevelopment Agency Meeting Minutes, which were approved on May 21, 2024.

Thanks for getting me a copy early. Unfortunately, I will be unavailable Tuesday evening. That said, I'd appreciate your responding to my email so I can better understand the budget. Page 4: The second sentence appears to have a typo. I believe it should read, "an" instead of "am". Typo has been corrected. Page 14: Does the chart reflect the Tentative Budget? Might be nice to have a label on the chart. Yes, the chart is reflective of the Tentative Budget. Page 60-61: Thanks so much for the discussion of the Fund Balance. Really appreciated! Page 82: Where are the Wages & Benefits budgeted for the office of the Assistant City Manager? ACM’s wages and Benefits is part of the Executive Budget (pg. 69) Page 98: Why the big drop in the Wages & Benefits in Senior Programs? Two customer services assistant positions were moved to the Recreation Program budget. Page 103: Do we no longer need a Fire Marshall? We do need a Fire Marshal. Fire marshal position resided within the Building Department and the current staff was functioning as a building inspector as well as a fire marshal. This year the current staff assumed full time building inspector position leaving the Fire Marshal position open. The intent is to fill the Fire Marshal position in the next budget cycle. This position will be located in the Fire Department. In the interim, Fire Marshal job duties are being handled by Ty Montalvo (Chief Building Official) and Russell Avery (Firefighter Inspector). Page 141: Are we not planning to contribute some CBDG Funds to charities this year? We are planning to fund the Community Service Programs this year. The process to allocate CDBG funds toward Community Service programs was delayed a bit. Applications were not closed and received in time to reflect allocation by organization. Currently $46,000 of funding for Community Services is reflected (set aside) as a contribution to fund balance in the Tentative Budget. Once the Council adopts CDBG’s Annual Action Plan, I will then move the money sitting in Fund Balance to the respective organizations as per the action plan. Page 146: Do we no longer need a Storm Water & Sanitation Manager? As part of realignment of resources and to better meet the needs of west side growth, some changes were made within the Storm Water, Streets, and Sanitation divisions. Storm Water manager position was eliminated and was combined with Streets to have one division manager. As the City grows west, second division manager will then be added to meet the increased demand. Page 152: Why such a big drop in budgeted Investment Earnings? There are multiple large projects proposed within the Water Fund (water tank, new building, and extension of current water facilities at the public works building). We are planning to use considerable amount of cash. In anticipation, I reduced the projected earnings for the upcoming budget just in. I may be a budget cycle ahead. Thank you so much for the information about our bond portfolio! Can you help me understand why bond interest rates change year to year? Do we issue our bonds with variable interest rates? This is a great question. Short answer is no we do not issue our bonds with variable rates. Municipal Bonds are issued in series, with each maturing at different times. Each series are sold individually to best meet the needs of both the issuer and the buyer. Some series are sold at par, some at a discount, and some at a premium. The rates are set at the time the bonds sold determined by market conditions as well as issuer ratings. The interest rate you see on the debt schedule is a combined average rate by series.

There was a lapse in the Full time Victim Advocate position due to the previous coordinator leaving the Agency. Kylee, the previous victim advocate has taken over the Victim Advocate Coordinator position. As of January 16th, 2024 we now have filled the victim advocate positon. From July 1st 2023 – Dec 31st 2023, South Jordan Victim Advocates have served approximately 125 victims of crime and families. Included in this chart are the major crime categories that we deal with. We hope to increase these numbers for the last half of the fiscal year now that we again have another full time advocate. We hope to focus on victims impacted by identity theft/fraud, assaults, and sexual assault victims, adult and child alike. South Jordan Victim Advocates make frequent contact with victims to assess their needs as the case moves forward. Each new victim will have continuous contact with victim advocates regarding criminal justice processes, information about their rights as victims of crime in Utah and referrals to specific resources to address their needs. This also includes responding on scene and creating safety plans by assessing the victim’s needs at the time. We maintain regular contact with victims and reassess their needs at each contact. After assisting victims through initial referrals we will provide comprehensive guidance through the criminal justice process. Victims have the right to be informed of and present at all hearings regarding their case. Our advocates ensure that victims are informed of all hearings, given the opportunity to participate and have their voice heard through whatever means are appropriate. This may include victim impact statements, restitution requests, law enforcement interviews, court attendance, or simply connecting them to prosecution for a meeting to discuss their wishes.
