Proposed Ordinance 18-18 and Resolution 18-69 related to the proposal to be considered by the City Council subsequent to the public hearing, were discussed as follows: ACTION: ORDINANCE NO. 18-18, AMEND THE ZONING MAP TO SHOW A CHANGE OF ZONE FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3248 SOUTH 6400 WEST FROM A (AGRICULTURE, MINIMUM LOT SIZE ½ ACRE) TO R-1-8 (SINGLE UNIT DWELLING RESIDENTIAL, MINIMUM LOT SIZE 8,000 SQUARE FEET) MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – MAY 15, 2018 -6- Steve Pastorik, CED, discussed proposed Ordinance 18-18 that would amend the Zoning Map to show a change of zone for property located at 3248 South 6400 West from A (Agriculture, Minimum Lot Size ½ Acre) to R-1-8 (Single Unit Dwelling Residential, Minimum Lot Size 8,000 Square Feet). Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included Information as follows: Canyon Cove Homes has submitted a zone change application (Z-6-2018) to change a 1.44 acre property at 3248 S 6400 W from A (agriculture, minimum lot size ½ acre) to R-1-8 (single unit dwelling residential, minimum lot size 8,000 square feet). The Zoning Ordinance does allow zone change requests to R-1-8 for properties less than 2 acres. The applicant has submitted a concept plan, which is attached, that shows the subject property being subdivided into four lots. The existing home on the property would be demolished. The average lot size is over 12,000 square feet. The R-1-8 zone is being requested due to the limited frontage on 6400 West. ACTION: RESOLUTION NO. 18-70, AUTHORIZE THE CITY TO ENTER INTO A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH CANYON COVE HOMES, LLC FOR APPROXIMATELY 1.44 ACRES OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3248 SOUTH 6400 WEST Steve Pastorik, CED, discussed proposed Resolution 18-70 that would authorize the City to enter into a Development Agreement with Canyon Cove Homes, LLC for approximately 1.44 acres of property located at 3248 South 6400 West. Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included Information as follows: Canyon Cove Homes has submitted a zone change application (Z-6-2018) to change a 1.44 acre property at 3248 S 6400 W from A (agriculture, minimum lot size ½ acre) to R-1-8 (single unit dwelling residential, minimum lot size 8,000 square feet). The Planning Commission recommended approval of the zone change subject to a development agreement. The proposed development agreement includes two provisions. The first requires all new homes to meet the City’s current housing standards. The  MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – MAY 15, 2018 -7- second allows a 5’ setback reduction in either the front or rear yard given the relatively narrow dimension of the property from north to south. Councilmember Buhler stated this is a unique property and he doesn’t like the idea of flag lots. Councilmember Lang stated she likes the private lane and is happy the developer will be constructing new homes under the current standards. She asked if the lot sizes will be defined in the Development Agreement. Steve replied they must be larger lots since they are flag lots and this is defined in the code. Councilmember Huynh indicated he feels comfortable with this proposal. Upon inquiry, there were no further questions or concerns expressed by members of the City Council. The City Council will consider Ordinance 18-18 and Resolution 18-70 at the Regular Council Meeting scheduled May 22, 2018, at 6:30 P.M.

The City Manager has expressed his desire to remain in West Valley City without any additional compensation or benefits from what he currently receives. The Agreement sets forth the current duties of the City Manager as outlined in the West Valley City Policy Manual, West Valley City Ordinance, and State law—all under which he currently operates. The Agreement obligates the City Manager to remain with West Valley City for a term of five (5) years, with up to four (4) more extensions with the same term.

Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as follows: Behavioral Health Strategies has been providing mental benefits for West Valley City for the past several years. Bloomquist Hale, our current employee assistance provider, and University of Utah Health Care have teamed together to provide mental health benefits at a competitive cost to the City. We continue to have great success in keeping our premium costs low. This year we experienced a 20% increase or about $38,000. The City Council will consider Resolution 18-71 at the Regular Council Meeting scheduled May 22, 2018, at 6:30 P.M.

Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as follows: SelectHealth has been providing medical benefits for West Valley City for the past twelve years. City employees who retire may also continue to have benefits under the plan as long as they pay the full premium. This year the negotiated increase was 5.4% approximately $353,000 well below market trends. Councilmember Buhler asked if there are wellness programs that employees are required to complete. Wayne replied that the Police Department is required to follow certain standards as well as other departments. Aimee indicated that the rest of the City doesn’t adhere to a wellness program and added that this is not something that is feasible for the City to do as it requires a contract and doesn’t provide enough of a benefit. The City Council will consider Resolution 18-73 at the Regular Council Meeting scheduled May 22, 2018, at 6:30 P.M. RESOLUTION 18-74: AUTHORIZE THE CITY TO ENTER INTO AN AGREEMENT WITH STANDARD INSURANCE COMPANY FOR LONG TERM DISABILITY INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR 2018-2019 Aimee Tye Critchley, HR Director, presented proposed Resolution 18-74 that would authorize the City to enter into an Agreement with Standard Insurance Company for Long Term Disability Insurance Coverage for 2018-2019. Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as follows: For several years West Valley City has required our employees to pay the premium for this benefit. The rate is .702% of salary. Some employees have asked to opt out of this benefit because current state law allows them to do so. If more than 25% of our employees opt out of this benefit the premium would also increase for other employees. It is vitally important for West Valley City to provide this benefit because gives the City options when employees become disabled and are no longer able to work. In order to be in compliance with the state code and to keep the premiums at a minimum we have decided to pay the premium for all eligible employees.

The City Council will consider Resolution 18-75 at the Regular Council Meeting scheduled May 15, 2018, at 6:30 P.M. COMMUNICATIONS C. ORDINANCE UPDATE DISCUSSION- TITLE 17 AND TITLE 1 Brandon Hill summarized changes to Title 17 and Title 1 as follows: Policy Changes 1) 17-1-108. Change: This section is entirely new and would prohibit the issuance of a business license for 12 months on a property where a business license was revoked for noncompliance with applicable laws. Why: The purpose of this change is to address situations where a business license is revoked for engaging in illegal activities and a close associate of the MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – MAY 15, 2018 -11- original owner or a similar business applies immediately for a new license. This situation makes it difficult to remove a business that is operating illegally and causing problems for neighboring residents and businesses. A new license can be issued if the property owner enters into a settlement agreement with the City setting forth operating conditions to prevent illegal activity or if the business provides POST-certified peace officers on site. 2) 17-2-204(13). Change: This is a new requirement that devices simulating fireworks must be inspected by the Fire Department prior to use. Why: Our Fire Department has seen a significant increase in these devices, which are generally very safe but can pose a fire hazard when deployed incorrectly. This requirement would not impose a fee or license requirement, but simply requires an inspection at no cost to the operator to ensure the safety of the public. 3) 17-2-700P. Change: This is a new part that addresses design and operation requirements for “Qualified Facilities”. The term “Qualified Facilities” is new and includes any place that isn’t a Lodging Facility that offers temporary accommodations to individuals without suitable alternate housing arrangements. Why: These guidelines address issues that have surfaced across the country at places meeting the Qualified Facilities definition, including security and service requirements, minimum square footages, maximum occupancy levels, and the like. Similar guidelines have been enacted in New York and have reduced some issues arising from Qualified Facilities. 4) 17-2-800P. Change: This is a new part that transitions the City from the Good Landlord Program to a rental nuisance approach. The rental nuisance approach targets repeat offenders for an escalating structure of fees and penalties, with license revocation being the ultimate consequence of refusal to comply. At each stage, fees are imposed and can only be reduced or waived if the property owner or property manager agrees to a management plan to address the issues going forward. Why: Over the last several years, the City has seen two trends relating to the GLP. First, the program is consistently under attack at the state level, with limitations on tenant screening requirements and disproportionate fees being the biggest targets. These limitations have made some of the more effective aspects of the GLP less helpful. Second, the City has seen substantial changes MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – MAY 15, 2018 -12- in the market that have impacted property management standards, particularly for larger landlords. The City’s need is now more focused on addressing specific problem properties than on changing the general tone of property management, which makes an approach like this more effective. 5) 17-2-1101(2) and (4). Change: Currently, food cart licenses are only available during a single application window. As the Council directed, these changes allow food cart operators to apply for a license at any time if there are open licenses that have not been issued. Applicants would still have a license that expires in May, but would pay a prorated fee based on the time between the application and the May expiration for their initial application. Why: At City Council direction to allow applicants to obtain vacant licenses. Procedure Changes 1) 17-1-103. Removed Social Security Number from application as it is no longer necessary to verify compliance with applicable ordinances. 2) 17-2-100P. Consolidates DABC license categories into a single City Alcoholic Beverage License for the purpose of business licensing. This change would not further broaden or restrict the ability of alcohol establishments to operate compared to the status quo, but would simply streamline the application process for staff and business owners. This change also consolidates design requirements and removes offenses already enacted through state law. 3) 17-2-600P. This change uses the current definitions of “Indoor Public Recreation” and “Outdoor Public Recreation” to replace outdated language. These changes do not change the applicability of the statute, but clarify that the code applies equally to facilities meeting these new definitions. 4) 17-2-900P. This section changes the taxi application process to accord with current Police Department practices and capabilities. The previous taxi application included several requirements concerning affidavits, reference letters, and similar documents which had not proven to be helpful to the Police Department or to Business Licensing. The most significant substantive regulations remain, but several application requirements were consolidated or removed. Technical Revisions  MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – MAY 15, 2018 -13- 1) 17-1-101. Definitions harmonized with Title 7; unused definitions removed; capitalization changes. 2) 17-1-102. Consolidated existing exemptions from business licensing requirements. 3) 17-1-104. Consolidated and harmonized existing enforcement language. 4) 17-1-107. Consolidated appeal procedures and Business License Hearing Board requirements. 5) 17-2-100P. Consolidated alcohol license and police work card requirements. 6) 17-2-200P. Consolidated design requirements for fireworks stands and included references to state laws designating dates for fireworks. 7) 17-2-300P. Consolidated massage licensing requirements into a single section and removed offenses covered in state law. Combined other prohibitions using existing definitions to clarify prohibited conduct. 8) 17-2-400P. Consolidated mobile home park licensing requirements into a single section. 9) 17-2-1000P. Consolidated towing license requirements into a single section. 10) 17-2-1100P. Consolidated food cart license requirements and application contents into two sections. The Council discussed various elements of the proposed changes and clarified specific modifications presented. D.

Erik replied yes. Councilmember Fitisemanu asked what the pedestrian indicator is in the requirements for a traffic signal. Erik replied it is the number of pedestrians crossing in the area. Council and staff discussed the potential future location list and what would warrant installing a traffic signal, the most important and driving factors in determining installing a traffic signal, etc. E.
