West Bountiful City, UT
via: dhuffman@wbcity.org
Friends,
West Bountiful City has been a significant partner for CenterPoint Theatre (CPT) from the very beginning. We are
grateful for the ongoing support of West Bountiful citizens who visit and engage with CPT every season in meaningful
and significant ways.
The financial support from West Bountiful City for CenterPoint continues to be an investment to provide a place of
community connection to the citizens of West Bountiful and their neighbors in Davis County. The continued support
of CPT will provide ongoing and long-lasting positive impacts for thousands and tens of thousands of people in our
community.
We are seeking $15,000 in support from West Bountiful City to help CPT continue its mission to provide elite-level
community theatre and community outreach experiences. CenterPoint continues to see dynamic growth and
engagement, with over 10,000 season ticket holders (nearly 300 from West Bountiful!) and 1,000 Academy students
(more than 30 from West Bountiful!). CenterPoint continues to operate with a much smaller percentage of contributed
revenue (18%) than the average for non-profit arts organizations (40%), making the support of West Bountiful an
extremely valuable resource in our delivering on our mission to tell Stories That Connect Us.
Stories are powerful. When you consider your own life and the most important things you’ve learned, it’s very
likely that stories have been building blocks that make you who you are. Our brains are wired for stories, and a
well-told story influences our thinking, our learning, and our progress like nothing else can. Theatre brings
unique power to these stories we tell, entertaining and inspiring us, and connecting us to each other. Theatre
tells stories in ways that bring us closer together, that teach us empathy, compassion, and connection.
In a world that is increasingly disconnected, CenterPoint provides a place of meaningful connection in our
community.
Thank you for your consideration of our application and your service in our community.
Danny Inkley
Executive Director, CenterPoint Theatre

Sum m ary
CenterPoint Theatre (CPT) has created high quality live theater experiences in our community since 2011, with roots
in our community dating back to 1990 with Pages Lane Theatre and Rodgers Memorial Theatre. CenterPoint’s home
is the Davis Center for the Performing Arts, a facility constructed in partnership with local communities. CenterPoint
has become a community gathering place for all of Davis County, with 80% of our patrons and participants being
drawn from local communities. And amid the dynamic expansion and growth of CenterPoint, West Bountiful City
continues to be a meaningful share of our Season Ticket base (nearly 300) and our Academy enrollment (nearly 40,
with over 150 having participated over time).
During 2023, West Bountiful citizens continued as among our most loyal visitors and supporters, with almost 3,000
total patron visits to CenterPoint. We recognize the care with which the City Council allocates funds in ways that best
serve the citizens of West Bountiful City. The support provided by these important funds is vital to CenterPoint as we
strive to keep our productions and programs financially accessible to all members of the community.
West Bountiful City is an integral piece of the history and success of CenterPoint Theatre. We are grateful for your
consideration of either support option for 2024. Your continued generosity makes it possible for CenterPoint to
continue our significant impact on the community.
CenterPoint Theatre is the premiere community theater in the State of
Utah, with a robust and growing patron base, including an expected
135,000 patron visits to our productions for 2024. CenterPoint mounts
eight mainstage productions annually, with over 220 anticipated
performances to an average audience of 450 people. This includes the
foundation of a season ticket subscribership of more than 10,000 patrons
(an increase of 14% from 2023), with 78% of our visits coming from
Davis County residents.
In total, West Bountiful City residents purchased 2,866 tickets to
CenterPoint productions in 2023.
CenterPoint currently employs or uses as vendors 10 individuals and
companies from West Bountiful.
CenterPoint provides ongoing and contracted employment to more than
120 staff, artists, designers, production team members, and instructors,
including more than 15 current residents of Bountiful.
Between patrons, staff, actors, artists, production teams, instructors,
and students, CenterPoint regularly welcomes more than 2,500 people
per day through our doors, with total annual visits of more than 250,000
people.
It is central to the mission of CenterPoint that we provide safe spaces to learn and grow for everyone, regardless
of sexual preference, race, religion, or educational levels. CenterPoint is known for maintaining a safe
environment and a welcoming atmosphere. In turn, CenterPoint has been richly rewarded through the diversity,
insight, cultural differences and spectacular relationships developed because of our employees, educators,
students and actors open arms attitude.
Stories that Connect Us
The community continues to support CenterPoint in fantastic ways. CenterPoint’s efforts have been consistently
recognized and praised by theater critics and patrons alike, and the impressive annual growth of our patron base
is evidence of our progress. CenterPoint is a four-time winner of Best of State in Community Theatre, including
the 2024 award which we were notified of in early April. We have also received significant awards from Davis
County, the State of Utah, and the Regional Broadway World organization.
CenterPoint Theatre provides youth education and community outreach through CenterPoint Academy, the pre-
eminent youth musical theatre training program in Utah. The CenterPoint Academy motto is "You Belong Here,"
and nobody knows that better than the more than 1,000 students (ages 3-18) from over 700 families who
participate in ongoing musical theatre, dance, voice, and technical theatre classes. These students perform in
12 annual productions, with more than 160 performances to more than 25,000 audience members. It's an arts
education organization with reach and impact unlike any other in the State. The Academy currently includes
nearly 40 students from West Bountiful, representing 25 families. More than 150 young people from West
Bountiful have participated at the Academy in past years.
What we really teach our students, however, is how to be the best version of themselves. While the musical
theatre, dance, and voice training we offer is top-notch, provided by the best local working artists, the end result
for the vast majority of our students isn’t the Broadway stage. Instead, we use the arts to teach lessons that
matter in any facet of life – confidence, discipline, leadership, self-esteem, teamwork, friendship, and creativity.
Our students learn these universally relevant skills and become assets wherever they go – at school, at work, in
the community, at church and at home.
All CenterPoint productions are mounted by a committed team of professionals and volunteers, with the highest
standards of quality. We invest significantly in the experience of our casts, crews, and teams, and keep the
concept of amateurism (doing it first and foremost because we love it) at the heart of what we do. The
CenterPoint culture of valuing each individual is crucial to the achievement of our mission and is inherent in the
operation of the theatre each and every day.
In addition to the Barlow Main Stage, Leishman Hall, and Academy 2024 productions, CenterPoint also offers
and supports dynamic programs focused on community outreach, including:
• Our Troubadours, which provides no-cost Assemblies to local elementary schools (including Valley View,
Oak Hills, Meadowbrook, and Bountiful)
• Support of local high school arts programs (including Bountiful High and Viewmont High)
• Our Bravo! program, which provides deeply discounted tickets and after performance talkbacks and tours
to junior high and high school students (including students from every junior high and high school in
southern Davis County)
• Summer Camps that provide programming and education to 500 elementary and junior high age students
(including almost 20% from Bountiful City)
• Complementary tickets provided to hundreds of charitable organizations and causes throughout the state
of Utah and region
• Premiere sponsorship of Friend to Friend - a performing arts training program for over 120 of our friends
with special needs (including 7 from West Bountiful City)

CenterPoint continues to present elite-level community theatre while keeping our programming as financially
accessible to our entire community as we possibly can. Tickets to many performances are available for as little
as $15, representing a tremendous value for the quality of entertainment and experience that we provide.
Volunteer support is essential to our success and the community continues to respond. We anticipate over
100,000 hours of volunteer work during 2024.
While most non-profit arts organizations in the United States derive more than 40% of their revenue from
contributions, CenterPoint's contributed revenue is only 18% of our operations. Our earned revenue supports
the majority of what we provide to the community.
All of the financial support we receive from foundations and the public, therefore, is essential to keep our
programs and productions financially accessible to the community, while continuing our growth to engage as
many members of our communities as possible.
All funding will support the overall mission of CenterPoint Theatre as we continue to in our objective engage and
serve every member of our community. And while CenterPoint produces elite level community theatre that
impacts thousands, our most significant impact is on the individuals who make up the CenterPoint community.
Here's just one example of thousands, the experience of Tyler Hanson at CenterPoint Theatre:
"My family was always involved in theater as I grew up. I had only dabbled here and there, but always maintained
an interest and supported them.
In 2011, my life was halted when my 15 year-old son was killed in a car accident. I found myself grief-stricken and
disconsolate.
My friend Scott Montgomery had always pestered me about auditioning for the shows he directed at CenterPoint
Theatre. I always turned him down reflexively. Finally, in 2017 he decided he had had enough, and signed me up
(without my consent) for an audition time for A Tale of Two Cities. I had just settled down in front of a
chimichanga/flauta combo plate at El Matador in Bountiful (15 minutes before my scheduled time) when I got a
text from Scott.
"You're up in 15 minutes. What are you singing?"
This text and its unanticipated aftermath led me to CPT and a pursuit that has allowed me to tap into a side of
myself that I had buried. Obviously, the shows and rehearsals have been amazing and fulfilling. The relationships
and the community, however, have meant the most.
Two weeks after closing Tale, we lost Scott unexpectedly. I'll never forget his final words to me before he died:
"You could lose 5-7 pounds, Tyler. Here's some Beachbody Performance Powder."
Attempted humor aside, this little theater has changed my life for the better. It has become hallowed ground in the
wake of extreme tragedy. A place for me to step out of my grieving self and be somebody else for a while. Giving
me a break from me. I have been accepted into this band of pretenders and have made lifelong friends.
CPT will always be my home away from home."

And one other example from Myra Roberts, the mother of a CenterPoint Academy student:
“Meg was such a shy kid, painfully shy…like throw up before you go to school every day, shy and anxiety so bad.
When
she came to me and asked to join CenterPoint to start singing and acting, I was totally caught off guard. I think I
might have actually laughed a little until I realized she was serious. We signed her up and thought she would maybe
last for one year.
Well…here we are on her third year and this girl has grown so much! She has the confidence we always wanted
her to have. What she has learned is priceless, confidence, self respect, she has become a leader, more kind, more
understanding and accepting of others with differences, outgoing and has grown to love music and singing.
I couldn’t be more grateful for what the Academy has done for our daughter. CenterPoint Academy is more than
just acting, it’s helping these kids grow into amazing people!”
In short, CenterPoint is all about people, and the support provided to our organization will make it possible for
even more residents of West Bountiful to benefit from everything CenterPoint offers.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning Commission
DATE: April 16, 2024
FROM: Staff
RE: Public Hearing, Zoning Assignment, and Annexation
South Davis Sewer District – approx. 1800 W 1200 North
_______________________________________________________________________________
The South Davis Sewer District has petitioned the city to annex 6 parcels totaling 12.666 acres of
land they own adjacent to their current plant on 1200 N west of Legacy Parkway. The district
believes it is in their interest and the community’s interest to have all of their property within city
limits as they begin a necessary plant upgrade and expansion; city staff agrees with this assessment.
At this meeting, the city council will hold a public hearing, vote to approve or deny the annexation
petition, and to accept or change the planning commission’s zoning recommendation.
REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS & BACKGROUND
A Notice of Intent to Annex was submitted by the Sewer District on December 8, 2023, and an
Annexation Petition was accepted by the city council on February 20th, 2024. On February 23rd the
petition was certified by the city recorder Remington Whiting.
Notice of the Certified Petition was mailed to all affected entities on February 29, 2024, and noticed
in accordance with Utah Code section 10-2-406, setting a protest deadline of March 23rd, 2024. No
protests have been received.
On March 12th the planning commission voted unanimously to recommend an assignment of
Agricultural Specialty District (A-S) to the property under consideration and on April 9th they held a
public hearing with no members of the public speaking in opposition.
A-S is the zoning assignment for all adjacent land and includes as conditional uses “public and quasi-
public uses,” which is the current categorization of the sewer plant. The land under consideration is
included in the city’s General Plan and annexation plan where it is intended to be zoned as
agricultural.
The statutory considerations have been satisfied for the city council to consider an ordinance
pertaining to the annexation request.
RECCOMENDATION
Staff recommends the city council vote to adopt Ordinance 483-24 approving the annexation and
accepting the planning commission’s recommendation of the A-S zoning assignment.

54 4. Ordinance 481-24 – Updating Home Occupation Regulations
55
56 Duane gave a brief overview of the drafting process for Ordinance 481-24. Councilmember
57 Nielsen shared that she believed that fiber glass should be prohibited in the code. Steve
58 Doxey recommended adding fiberglass to 5.28.040(C) with the list of dangerous materials
59 that are prohibited. Councilmember Butterfield recommended changing the gross weight
60 restriction from 14,000 lbs. to 26,000 lbs.
61
62 The restriction on detailing vehicles was discussed. Councilmember Butterfield shared his
63 thoughts on the residential businesses that make the city different from others, such as auto
64 repair businesses. He said that he believes they are important and should not be restricted.
65 Councilmember Enquist also shared his concern over closing the door on Automotive Repair
66 and said that they should not be completely restricted. Council Ahlstrom shared his
67 appreciation for the planning commission and their work on the ordinance. He explained that
68 home occupations should have no negative impact on those living in the neighborhood and
69 that they should not be able to tell the business exists.
70
71 Amy Hinojosa – 638 N 660 W – gave a brief explanation of the process that took place when
72 Auto Italia first applied for a home occupation. She believes that auto repair should be on the
73 conditional use section still.
74
75 Councilmember Ahlstrom asked about conditional use permits and if they always had to be
76 approved. Steve Doxey explained that conditional use can be denied if reasonable conditions
77 cannot be imposed, but it is very difficult. Councilmember Enquist asked if they could allow
78 auto repair based on acreage. Mayor Romney explained that no two lots are the same, which
79 would make this very difficult.
80
81 MOTION: Mark Preece made a motion to approve Ordinance 481-24, Updating Home
82 Occupation Regulations with the following changes: (1) adding fiberglass to
83 5.28.040(C), (2) modifying the gross weight restriction in 5.28.040(D) to

WEST BOUNTIFUL Page 3 of 6
CITY COUNCIL MEETING March 19, 2024
94 Duane explained that 660 W from 400 N to 1000 B needs a waterline replacement and road
95 re-build. The city had included the project in this year’s budget, but realized the project would
96 require significant engineering before accurate costs estimates could be reviewed by the
97 council. This design work has progress, and staff now recommends that the council discuss
98 options, work with the residents on the street, and begin construction at the beginning of 2025.
99
100 Kris explained the different options related to curb, gutter, and sidewalk. Option A would
101 allow for standard sidewalks and parks strips on the east and west side. He explained the
102 impact this would have on people’s driveways and yards. Councilmember Butterfield shared
103 that he had visited many of the residents on this road and many had expressed their concern
104 over the impact. Option B would include a 6ft sidewalk on one side and no park strips. Option
105 C would have a sidewalk on both sides and a park strip on one side. Kris explained why park
106 strips are important as they act as a buffer between vehicles and pedestrians. Option D would
107 include no sidewalks or curbs on either side. Option D would also not have storm drains
108 which Steve Maughan advised against.
109
110 Amy Hinojosa – 638 N 660 W – Voiced that the west side currently has the most foot traffic
111 and is the best side for a sidewalk.
112
113 Debbie Hammond – 875 N 600 W – Agreed that most foot traffic is on the west side of the
114 street. She also expressed concern over the front yards being impacted. She said that the
115 houses on the northern end of the street will be more impacted than those on the southern end.
116
117 Richmond Thornley – Expressed that many people park on the street which would become
118 difficult if sidewalks were placed on both sides of the street.
119
120 Craig Hammond – Said that something needs to be done because of the foot traffic. He asked
121 them to consider avoiding the option that would impact the residents the most.
122
123 Melody Farley – Said that for safety reasons, a sidewalk should be placed on at least one side.
124 Shared that she doesn’t feel safe while walking on the road.
125
126 Duane explained budget limitations that this project could have on future projects. He asked
127 the council to consider the level of service that is needed for the community on this street.
128 The council consensus was to look at an option that provides a sidewalk on the west side of
129 the road and limits impacts to properties. Staff will do a little more design work on this option
130 and bring it back to the council, and then it should be ready for a meeting with residents along
131 the project.
132
133 6. Budget Discussion – 1st look at FY 2024/2025 Budget.
134
135 Duane presented an overview of the initial projections for the 2024/2025 Budget. The general
136 fund currently has an estimated balance of $2.3 million, with $1.4 million that is unassigned.
137 The projected general fund revenue is $5.6 million with sales tax being flat or declining. The
138 general fund expenses are projected to be $5.8 million. Staff will be looking at options on
139 decreasing or deferring expenses, while trying not to fall too far behind on critical items.
