EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH AWARD, JULY 2019- BRYAN HAYWOOD, POLICE DEPARTMENT Councilmember Huynh read the nomination of Bryan Haywood, Police Department, to receive Employee of the Month Award for July 2019. The award reads as follows: Detective Bryan Haywood performed exemplary work on two cases that spanned the months of April and May of this year. On April 7, 2019, 15 Officers from three (3) different agencies were involved in a Critical Incident in South Salt Lake. As part of the Protocol Agreement, West Valley City was tasked with this investigation which was led by Detective Bryan Haywood. Generally, these cases are time consuming and very tasking for the investigating agencies. This case was unique and very dynamic and is believed to be the largest, most complex Protocol Investigation to have occurred under new State Law. In addition to the 15 Involved Officers, there were an additional 17 Officers that were witnesses. Just weeks later on May 7, 2019 Detective Haywood volunteered to take a child death case in which our victim was four months old at the time of her death. Detective Haywood worked tirelessly on this case and stayed in constant communication with the family of our victim. He was able to gain a confession from our suspect and prepare an excellent case for prosecution for the District Attorney’s Office who ultimately filed first degree felony charges. Either case would be a daunting task for one Detective to investigate; Detective Haywood took both cases and gave a 110% commitment to each. Detective Haywood went above and beyond on both cases and exhibited the highest levels of professionalism. Detective Haywood was able to provide total customer service to the victim’s family, while balancing the pressures and demands of the Critical Incident case. We are proud of the example he MINUTES OF COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING – JULY 9, 2019 -3- has set for the West Valley City Police Department and appreciate the work and dedication he provides to the City and its residents. B. DIVISION OF THE QUARTER AWARD- ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Councilmember Christensen read the nomination of Economic Development to receive Division of the Quarter Award. The award reads as follows: The Economic Development Division of the Community and Economic Development Department is the division that puts "gas" in the engine of the City. Anyone who enters the City from any gateway (1-15, I-215, 7200, 201, Redwood, 5600) will see the evidence of the amazing work of this Division. Literally every corner of the City is being developed or redeveloped in a huge way due to their excellent efforts. Many people do not understand the significant impact an exceptional Economic Development Team can have on City. This small division is responsible for millions of dollars of increased revenue, thousands of new and maintained jobs, and helping to make the City a great place to live, work and play. This work is difficult and takes a long time, a single project may take years to develop and secure and that for every project that comes to fruition there are at least 10 that did not work. The Economic Development Division of our City works at the highest levels to secure all types of business and to ensure that the businesses we have stay and thrive. This job requires a unique skill set and a willingness to work tirelessly doing whatever it takes to create success. If you have ever had the chance to talk to someone not familiar with the City or who is visiting after having not been in the city in a while you will hear a common refrain. "Wow, I had no idea about all of the amazing things happening in your City." This phrase is music to the Economic Development office. The ongoing success of this Division is also due in large part to the many hands throughout the City that come together to make a particular project work and to the consistent direction and support of the City Manager and City Council. It is a team effort and something we can all take great pride in being part of. At this time, when so many of these projects are being completed, the Economic Development Division truly deserves the Division of the Quarter Award. The Economic Development Division is the epitome of total customer service. Each member of this team is available to its customers MINUTES OF COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING – JULY 9, 2019 -4- day or night. Many evenings and weekends are spent working on projects and with prospective projects. This team works tirelessly to make sure developments are completed and issues are resolved. COMMENT PERIOD A.

He indicated that he has complied as quickly as he can but hasn’t been able to get everything done and the process is moving too fast. Timothy Olschewski stated that Salt Lake City recently passed an accessory dwelling unit ordinance. He indicated that West Valley City took up a similar ordinance, 16-33, but it was continued and there have been no further conversations. He encouraged the Council to talk about this issue further. Ralph Vernor stated that RV owners should be able to unload and load trailers for as long as they need. He indicated that according to Section 22-2-116, residents only have 3 minutes to do this before they can be ticketed. Mr. Vernor stated that he received a citation for this on June 27 and he would request that the Council look into this matter further. He added that he appealed his citation and won but the Code should be modified to avoid further issues. MINUTES OF COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING – JULY 9, 2019 -5- Shane McGarvey stated that he represents the Roxborough HOA. He indicated that his neighborhood experiences multiple issues with homeowners who don’t follow West Valley City regulations or CCR’s put into place by the HOA. Mr. McGarvey stated that he is asking for assistance from the City and would ask that Code Enforcement enforce in his neighborhood. He indicated that residents of HOA’s pay taxes and homeowners should receive the same treatment as other residents. Mr. McGarvey stated that the HOA has difficulty enforcing laws on their own neighbors, collecting fees, etc. He added that their neighborhood park is the only one in the area and the City performs no maintenance and offers no funds to help keep it clean. Mike Markham thanked the City for looking into possibly installing electrical power units for food trucks at Fairbourne Station. He indicated that he had no idea it would cost that much to retro fit what is already in place and stated that he hopes the City will consider things like this on future projects moving forward. Mr. Markham stated that he is thankful to see a parking ordinance on the agenda and is in full support of it being passed. He added that he also supports Code Enforcement efforts and stated that it’s important to make the City a livable, walkable City and he is thankful for all the work the City has done.

She stated that people from the east side don’t want to come to West Valley City because of these negative aspects. Leslie Robinson indicated that she received a citation for a truck and trailer in front of her home.

To address these situations, staff prepared the attached proposed ordinance revision that, in summary, states that refuse storage container enclosures should not be required for properties within the M (Manufacturing) zone when the following conditions are met: 1. The refuse storage containers shall not be visible from the Street or the refuse storage containers shall be located in a loading dock area MINUTES OF COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING – JULY 9, 2019 -7- that is screened by a 6’ tall masonry wall, 2. The refuse storage container is located behind a building or within a yard that is completely screened with a 6’ tall, masonry wall. 3.

Councilmember Huynh seconded the motion. A roll call vote was taken: Mr. Fitisemanu Yes Ms. Lang Yes Mr. Buhler Yes Mr. Huynh Yes Mr. Christensen Yes Mayor Bigelow Yes Unanimous. B.

Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as follows: Redwood Road is listed as one of the High-Image Arterial Streets in Chapter 7-10 of the City Code. Part 2 (7-10-200P) sets forth additional standards for specific streets that include a type of lighting fixture. This amendment simply clarifies which lighting fixture should be used in the Redwood Road streetscape design. Mayor Bigelow opened the Public Hearing.

ACTION: ORDINANCE NO. 19-19, AMEND SECTION 7-10-204 OF THE WEST VALLEY CITY MUNICIPAL CODE TO CLARIFY LIGHTING STANDARDS APPLICABLE TO REDWOOD ROAD The City Council previously held a public hearing regarding proposed Ordinance 19-19 that would amend section 7-10-204 of the West Valley City Municipal Code to clarify lighting standards applicable to Redwood Road.

ORDINANCE 19-20: AMEND CHAPTER 22 OF THE WEST VALLEY CITY MUNICIPAL CODE TO PROHIBIT PARKING OF UNINSURED AND UNREGISTERED VEHICLES ON CITY STREETS, PROHIBIT PARKING ON A BIKE LANE OR PEDESTRIAN TRAIL, ALLOW FOR THE USE OF AN IMMOBILIZATION DEVICE ON NUISANCE VEHICLES, AND CREATE AN ELECTRONIC PAYMENT AND APPEAL SYSTEM Mayor Bigelow discussed proposed Ordinance 19-20 that would amend Chapter 22 of the West Valley City Municipal Code to prohibit parking of uninsured and unregistered vehicles on City streets, prohibit parking on a bike lane or pedestrian trail, allow for the use of an immobilization device on nuisance vehicles, and create an electronic payment and appeal system. Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as follows: If approved, this ordinance will enact two new sections and amend nine others. Proposed Sections 22-2-105 and 22-2-106 will make it unlawful to park an unregistered or uninsured vehicle on a public highway, street, alley, park strip, or parking lot. The substantive amendments to Chapter 22-2 make it possible to cite unregistered owners, make it unlawful to park on a bike lane or a pedestrian trail, clarify when a trailer can be parked on the street, and clarify the term “parking lot.” The procedural amendments to Chapter 22-2 give the City the ability to place an immobilization device on nuisance vehicles in lieu of towing, facilitate the electronic issuance and collection of parking ticket fines, and raise the total fine for a parking ticket from $125 to $128 to allow for the administrative processing fee. Over the last six months, the Legal Department and the Police Department have seen the need to amend the parking ordinances to compensate for the volume of tickets and have identified several code sections that need to be clarified for the benefit of the citizenry. Councilmember Buhler noted that the Council has had discussion last week, tonight in Study Meeting, as well as tonight in Public Comment. He indicated that unloading and loading RV’s will be discussed in greater detail next week. MINUTES OF COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING – JULY 9, 2019 -10- Councilmember Buhler moved to approve Ordinance 19-20. Councilmember Christensen seconded the motion. Councilmember Lang indicated that she brought the issue up in Study Meeting and staff reassured her that tickets were not being issued for RV’s loading and unloading. She indicated that it was mentioned in public comment that this was not the case and she is uncomfortable approving this ordinance as it is written. Councilmember Lang added that she would like residents to have the ability to speak with a live person, appeal somewhere that is not only online, and pay somewhere not only online as well. Councilmember Fitisemanu agreed that there may be some issues that still need to be worked out. Wayne indicated that there have always been ordinances against various parking scenarios and this is a clean-up of ones that have been confusing for the public and for the parking compliance officers. He stated that this ordinance will likely have many modifications and will come before the Council many times to continue to find ways to make it more clear and defined. Ryan Robinson, Acting City Attorney, clarified various aspects of the ordinance. Councilmember Lang stated that she doesn’t see an issue with continuing the ordinance for a few weeks to resolve some of these concerns now. I don’t see an issue to move it back a week or two. Lets move it back one week or another. Councilmember Buhler stated that he doesn’t have a concern with the changes being proposed and added that staff could come back with more clarifications after this is approved.
