SSL City Council Report
MEETING DATE: August 13, 2025
SUBJECT: Resolution to Adopt the updated Salt Lake County Mitigation Plan
SUBMITTED BY: Yasmin Abbyad, Emergency Management Coordinator
ACTION: Adopt the updated Salt Lake County Mitigation Plan and City of South Salt Lake Jurisdictional
Annex
WHY WE NEED TO PASS A RESOLUTION TO ADOPT:
The Hazard Mitigation Plan is required under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act for local jurisdictions to be eligible for certain types of non-emergency disaster assistance
and hazard mitigation funding, including Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC)and
Public Assistance Hazard Mitigation grants.
This plan must be updated every five years according to federal guidelines. The previous Hazard
Mitigation Plan was adopted by the City of South Salt Lake in 2019, and expired in May 2025. It was
adopted by the Salt Lake County Council earlier this summer.
WHAT IS THE HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN:
The Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP) is a comprehensive document that outlines our long-term strategy to
reduce damages and losses in a disaster. It identifies potential natural disasters, their risks, our
vulnerabilities and capabilities, and outlines future actions we plan to take to minimize their impact on
our city.
The process of updating the plan takes a significant amount of coordination, effort, and time. Salt Lake
County initiated this process in September of 2024 with the help of a contracted company. From
September to December, the plan was drafted and public feedback regarding local hazards was
collected. Final draft actions were completed from January to March 2025, and the draft was submitted
to Utah State Department of Emergency Management in April 2025 for review. FEMA is aware of the
current status of this plan update, and has asked local jurisdictions to obtain adoption resolutions to
expedite the process. The plan was adopted in July 2025 by the Salt Lake County Council.

additional time, in one-hour increments.
D. Insurance. All parties are required to demonstrate to the City adequate insurance coverage.
E. Security Service Fee. For large or high-risk events, or for large group rentals during evening hours after
5 p.m. and weekends, security shall be required. The City shall evaluate event-related risks and require
the City to provide security services at the costs detailed in this Title. A security plan may be required
by the police department and is subject to approval by the police department.
F. After Hours Fee. Any person or organization that receives approval to use facilities under this Section
after normal hours of operation shall pay an additional, non-refundable fee as outlined in this Title. An
offer by an organization or person to pay this additional fee does not obligate the City to schedule after
hours events.
G. Cancellation Fee: Events that are cancelled less than 14 days prior to rental date are subject to
cancellation charge equal to booking deposit paid. Bookings not paid in full 14 days prior to rental date
are subject to cancellation and cancellation charge.

advance. For rentals booked 7 to 13 days in advance, an additional twenty-five percent (25%) of the
room rental fee will be charged. For rentals booked 3 to 6 days in advance, an additional fifty percent
(50%) of the room rental fee will be charged. No bookings allowed less than 36 hours in advance.
I. Multi Booking Fee Reductions. A twenty-percent reduction in rental fees for a community center
facility is authorized where the scheduling party schedules ten hours or more in any one calendar
month. In such cases, the required fee must be paid in advance and will be non-refundable.
J. Multi Room/Facility Fee Reduction. A twenty percent reduction in cumulative rental fees may be
granted for a renter that intends to use a group of rooms and/or facilities simultaneously for a large
event. In such cases, the required fee must be paid in advance and will be non-refundable.
