Background Over the past year, the planning commission and city council have engaged in rigorous discussions about the Home Occupations code. The planning commission forwarded a draft ordinance in September 2023 to the city council, which the council tabled for further discussion. In October 2023, the city council and planning commission held a joint meeting to discuss the work to that point. On January 23rd, 2024, the planning commission voted to forward an updated draft ordinance to the city council for consideration. The council reviewed that draft in February and tabled it for further deliberation. The attached ordinance uses the latest planning commission draft as its foundation and makes additional changes based on staff consultation with council members. Highlights The following elements are highlights of the updates: 1. Titles 5 and 17 of the city code are better synchronized regarding the definition and regulation of home occupations. 2. The zoning administrator will be the primary staff member responsible for reviewing home occupations. 3. Notice requirements are updated so that written notice of proposed home occupations is only required for conditional uses; otherwise, a general notice will be posted on the property for regular home occupations. 4. Use regulations are clarified related to impacts beyond property lines, the storage of flammable materials, large vehicles/equipment, the allowable floor space for the use, times of deliveries, etc. 5. The list of “prohibited” businesses was shortened from the planning commission’s recommendation, but automotive repair and other automotive uses as well as welding was added. 6. Child care and kennels (in the A-1/A-S zones) were added as conditional uses. If the council is ready to adopt, an ordinance has been prepared for this purpose. The council may also choose to continue work on this issue for final adoption at a later date. 550 North 800 West, West Bountiful, UT 84087 (801) 292-4486  WEST BOUNTIFUL CITY ORDINANCE #481-24 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 5 AND TITLE 17 OF WEST BOUNTIFUL MUNICIPAL CODE UPDATING HOME OCCUPATION REGULATIONS WHEREAS, West Bountiful City is empowered to adopt and amend general laws and land use ordinances pursuant to Utah State law (§10-9a-101 et seq.) and under corresponding sections of the West Bountiful City Code; and ; and WHEREAS, after review and a public hearing of the proposed Home Occupation Business Licensing and Land Use Code Text Amendments on September 12, 2023, the West Bountiful City Planning Commission forwarded a recommendation to the City Council; and WHEREAS, the City Council of West Bountiful conducted additional meetings and deliberations, and finds that these amendments are necessary to protect the general health, safety and welfare of the city’s residents.

A home occupation business license application may be obtained from the city offices or from the city website. Each application shall be submitted to the city recorder If the zoning administrator determines that the combined offsite impact of the proposed home occupation and the primary residential use of the property will materially exceed the offsite impact of the primary residential use alone, the application must be accompanied by payment of a business license fee. The city may also charge an administrative fee if the applicant requests a business license B. It is unlawful for any person to provide false information to the city in relation to the application for, issuance of, or continuation of, a business license, or to knowingly cause or permit the same to be done. C. The applicant shall give notice of the nature and description of the proposed home occupation by posting a notice in front of the property on which the home occupation is to be conducted for no less than seven days immediately preceding the submission of a home occupation business license application. For home occupations that require a conditional use permit, the applicant must also give written notice of the nature and description of the proposed home occupation to owners of property within 300 feet of the exterior boundaries of the property on which the home occupation is to be conducted. The applicant must provide evidence of the required posting and written notice, if applicable, as part of the home occupation business license application. D. The application will contain the applicant’s written agreement to allow the city to enter upon and inspect the property at all reasonable times (1) to ensure the requirements of this chapter have been met before the license is issued, and (2) to verify compliance thereafter. 2 ORDINANCE #481-24 - Exhibit A E.

Tools, items, equipment or uses which are offensive or noxious by reason of the emission of odor, smoke, gas, dust, vibration, magnetic or electrical interference, noise, or other similar impacts that extend beyond the property line of the lot where the home occupation is located, beyond those impacts of reasonable residential use, are prohibited. C. The home occupation shall not involve using or storing flammable material, explosives, or other dangerous materials, including gun powder. D. The home occupation shall not involve the parking or storage of equipment or motor vehicles having a gross weight of fourteen thousand (14,000) pounds or more at the residence or on the street adjacent to the property on which the home occupation is conducted.

F. The home occupation shall not involve the use of any part of a dwelling or structure for which, by reason of state, federal or local laws, special or extra entrances or exits or special rooms are required as a condition to the operation of such use. G. More than one home occupation business license may be issued for a property, if after review, the zoning administrator specifically determines that the total of all businesses on the property will not have an impact on the community greater than one business. H. The home occupation must be conducted entirely within the dwelling, except that twenty-five percent (25%) of a garage or accessory structure on the same property as the dwelling may also be used.

Ba ckground The FY 24 budget included funding for a ma jor ca pita l improvement project on 660 W from 400 N to 1000 N, including repla cing the ma in wa ter line, rebuilding the roa d, a nd the insta lla tion of storm wa ter a nd curb/sidewa lk improvements tha t a re not currently on the roa d. The budget wa s ba sed on very prelimina ry engineering estima tes. The size a nd scope of these improvements necessita ted significa ntly more engineering design work to develop more a ccura te cost estima tes. Additiona lly, sta ff recommends more discussion a nd community outrea ch rela ted to new improvements such a s sidewa lk on both sides of the roa d. New Improvements When considering how new public improvements a re insta lled in the city, it is importa nt to consider the policy a nd cost implica tions. These a re the prima ry wa ys new improvements a re insta lled: A. When development occurs. This is most common when subdivisions a re built or undeveloped la nd is built on. In these ca ses, the developer (a nd by extension the homeowner) pa ys the costs of the new sidewa lks, roa ds, wa terlines, etc. B. Improvement Districts. When a n a rea is a lrea dy developed, or mostly developed, a nd the residents a re interested in a n improvement like sidewa lks or storm wa ter improvements, a specia l limited improvement district a dministered by the city ca n be crea ted for ta xing or bonding purposes so tha t there is a n efficient wa y for these residents/neighborhoods to fund the improvements. This ha s ra rely, if ever, been used in West Bountiful. C. City Funded. When the city decides tha t improvements a re a significa nt benefit to the community, it uses city or gra nt money to fund the project. Exa mples of this in West Bountiful include Pa ges La ne, 800 W, a nd portions of 1100 W. These a re usua lly ma in corridors used by residents. When designing 660 W, the council should consider whether it is in the community’s interest to pa y for sidewa lk on both sides of the roa d. 550 North 800 West, West Bountiful, UT 84087 (801) 292-4486 Options At the meeting on Ma rch 19th, sta ff will present the following options (with a few other va ria tions) a nd newly refined budget estima tes: 1. Full improvements (sidewa lk, curb, gutter, storm wa ter, roa d, a nd wa ter line). $3 million (origina lly budgeted a t $2.2 million) 2. Sidewa lk on west side of roa d (a nd a ll other improvements). $2.2 million 3. Current improvements (wa ter line, roa d, no sidewa lk/curb). $1.8 million Moving Forwa rd After the council ha s a cha nce to review, discuss, a nd confirm a preferred option, sta ff recommends scheduling a neighborhood meeting with residents to get a dditiona l input on design options. Afterwa rds, a fina l decision ca n be ma de a nd a bid pa cka ge prepa red for the project to begin in ea rly 2025. 550 North 800 West, West Bountiful, UT 84087 (801) 292-4486  MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor & Council DATE: March 15, 2024 FROM: Duane Huffman RE: FY 2024/2025 Budget 1st Look __________________________________________________________________________ At the March 19th meeting I will present to the council a first look at next year’s city budget. The final numbers won’t be ready until the day of the meeting, but in general the council can anticipate the following assumptions: Overall • Revenue estimates will likely be flat (in the best case scenario) or slightly down. • Expenditures continue to feel inflationary pressure. • The combination of these two will likely mean a projected shortfall. • The city has a healthy fund balance, in part to weather times like these, but it should be very prudent in how it is used. Options In preparing draft budgets, city staff will be looking at the following strategies: • Limiting expenditure growth and looking for additional cost cutting methods. • Potentially deferring some one-time costs, such as the purchase of equipment. • Reviewing how major items are funded. For example, some part of the debt service on the new public works facility may come from other funds such the Capital Projects Fund and/or the Water Fund. • In general, the strategy will be to balance the need to not fall too far behind in certain expense categories while also not creating a situation where even when revenues recover they will not be enough to handle expenses. Other Items • There is likely a need to look at garbage fees based on a few years’ worth of increases from the Wasatch Integrated Waste Management Districts and the city’s hauler. • Capital Projects. Even with operating revenue not doing great, the city will still have available funds for road, water, and parks projects. • Council Priorities: Staff will be seeking input from the council on areas and projects of interest to use when developing draft budgets. 550 North 800 West, West Bountiful, UT 84087 (801) 292-4486  FY24 - FEBRUARY FINANCIAL UPDATE (estimates - for informational purposes only) 2024-24 2023-24 2023-24 2023-24 Current Month Current YTD Current Yr Budget % Budget February (67% Elapsed) GENERAL FUND TAXES 321,030 3,582,883 5,105,600 70% LICENSES AND PERMITS 9,954 70,018 148,700 47% INTERGOVERNMENTAL REVENUE 6,790 190,870 271,500 70% CHARGES FOR SERVICES 705 9,077 30,000 30% FINES AND FORFEITURES 7,765 64,366 60,000 107% MISCELLANEOUS REVENUE 8,710 148,973 146,600 102% CONTRIBUTIONS AND TRANSFERS 0 0 587,300 0% 354,953 4,066,187 6,349,700 64% LEGISLATIVE 7,351 43,464 75,400 58% COURT 2,250 22,900 35,900 64% ADMINISTRATIVE 29,273 295,241 399,600 74% ENGINEERING 7,089 60,082 95,600 63% NON-DEPARTMENTAL 9,133 218,468 263,800 83% GENERAL GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS 3,332 72,925 105,100 69% PLANNING AND ZONING 5,918 59,472 142,900 42% POLICE DEPARTMENT 127,288 1,330,599 2,202,100 60% FIRE PROTECTION 0 527,325 703,100 75% PW Bldg 2,228 3,040 0 0% STREETS 25,563 182,719 289,700 63% CLASS 'C' ROAD PROJECTS 0 242,462 315,000 77% PROP 1 TRANSPORTATION TAX 0 22,824 478,100 5% PARKS 21,152 319,475 400,300 80% DEBT SERVICE 0 43,732 363,600 12% TRANSFERS, OTHER 21,979 173,087 479,500 36% 262,555 3,617,812 6,349,700 57% WATER FUND MISCELLANEOUS REVENUE 20,850 146,120 155,000 94% UTILITY REVENUE 109,671 921,058 1,325,100 70% CONTRIBUTIONS AND TRANSFERS 0 0 0 0% 130,520 1,067,179 1,480,100 72% EXPENDITURES 346,980 937,926 1,173,450 80% CAPITAL PROJECTS 0 292,241 788,450 37% 346,980 1,230,167 1,961,900 63% GOLF COURSE OPERATING REVENUE 19,954 972,006 1,218,800 80% MISCELLANEOUS REVENUE 247 13,948 4,100 340% 20,201 985,954 1,222,900 81% CONTRIBUTIONS AND TRANSFERS 0 0 0 0% GOLF PROFESSIONAL & CLUBHOUSE 19,968 282,265 403,900 70% COURSE & EQUIP MAINT & REPAIRS 33,642 446,308 738,300 60% DRIVING RANGE 0 5,134 10,300 50% PRO SHOP & CAFE 32,632 142,607 140,000 102% DEBT SERVICE 2,352 80,285 49,400 163% 88,595 956,598 1,341,900 71%  FY24 - FEBRUARY FINANCIAL UPDATE (estimates - for informational purposes only) 2024-24 2023-24 2023-24 2023-24 Current Month Current YTD Current year % Budget February JESSE MEADOWS ASSESSMENT FUND JESSE MEADOWS ASSESSMENT FUND Revenue Total: 682.47 16,594.64 12,100.00 137% JESSE MEADOWS ASSESSMENT FUND Expenditure Total: 0 872.31 12,100.00 7% STREETS IMPACT FEES FUND STREETS IMPACT FEES FUND Revenue Total: 3,971.34 22,670.12 165,000.00 14% STREETS IMPACT FEES FUND Expenditure Total: 0 17,819.01 165,000.00 11% PARK IMPACT FEES FUND PARK IMPACT FEES FUND Revenue Total: 2,478.72 13,358.03 30,500.00 44% PARK IMPACT FEES FUND Expenditure Total: 0 0 30,500.00 0 REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FUND REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FUND Revenue Total: 1,272.82 10,261.85 293,000.00 4% REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FUND Expenditure Total: 7,071.24 60,122.55 293,000.00 21% RAP TAX FUND RAP TAX FUND Revenue Total: 29,320.13 233,404.79 386,000.00 60% RAP TAX FUND Expenditure Total: 2,448.35 21,522.10 386,000.00 6% CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUND Revenue Total: 28,215.18 218,686.10 540,000.00 40% CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUND Expenditure Total: 1,129.29 66,818.46 540,000.00 12% STREETS CAP IMPROVEMENT FUND STREETS CAP IMPROVEMENT FUND Revenue Total: 1,698.28 12,807.23 480,000.00 3% STREETS CAP IMPROVEMENT FUND Expenditure Total: 0 0 480,000.00 0 SOLID WASTE FUND SOLID WASTE FUND Revenue Total: 39,567.15 315,285.80 435,000.00 72% SOLID WASTE FUND Expenditure Total: 21,020.65 301,485.24 520,200.00 58% STORM DRAIN UTILITY STORM DRAIN UTILITY Revenue Total: 11,450.42 76,790.36 125,000.00 61% STORM DRAIN UTILITY Expenditure Total: 5,869.79 58,988.87 220,700.00 27%  West Bountiful City Proclamation A PROCLAMATION OF THE WEST BOUNTIFUL CITY COUNCIL DECLARING APRIL 12, 2024, AS ARBOR DAY IN WEST BOUNTIFUL CITY.

He then discussed how the owner of the subdivision had 38 submitted a request to defer subdivision improvements like cubs, sidewalk, and road 39 widening. Based on the current status of the road and the likelihood of future development to 40 the west, staff’s recommendation is to grant the deferral.

It was previously estimated that the 4 vehicles would cost $166,000. He 77 explained that unfortunately the cost of the 4 new vehicles is higher than anticipated, costing a 78 total of $210,980. Council member Butterfield asked about a purchasing policy for police 79 vehicles. Duane explained that there was not a formal policy, but rather schedules that were 80 reviewed and adjusted each budget cycle, and that a formal policy is something the city could 81 create. Duane emphasized how much the supply chain shortage has affected purchasing 82 vehicles over the last couple years. Assistant Chief Wilkinson explained that 3 reserve 83 vehicles are necessary because of maintenance and accidents. Council member Ahlstrom 84 shared his opinion that it is better to buy now when they are available then risk them not being 85 available next year.
