Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as follows: Russ Platt has submitted a zone change application for 2.01 acres of property located at 3579 South Redwood Road. The parcel is currently zoned C-2 (general commercial) with a General Plan designation of mixed use (general commercial and high density residential). The proposed zone is RM (multiple unit dwelling residential). In 2016, the City Council approved a zone change for the property to the east from M (manufacturing) to RM. At the time, the proposal was to develop the RM portion as townhomes and the C-2 portion as a mix of commercial uses. The zone change was approved subject to a development agreement that included renderings of both the townhomes and commercial buildings. The latest proposal expands the townhome development to the west by shrinking the commercial area. The attached latest concept plan includes a total of 96 units, yielding a density of 11.4 units/acre. All of the new units will have parking in the driveway. As part of the latest application the applicant is also proposing changes to the development agreement that was approved with the zone change from 2016. These changes are summarized below:  Reducing the number of commercial buildings from 3 to 2  Changing the renderings for the 2 remaining commercial buildings  Increasing the minimum townhome size from 1,800 to 1,900 square feet  Adding finished basements to all townhome units (498 SF for 2 story units and 322 SF for 3 story units)  MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – JUNE 5, 2018 -4-  Increasing the number of townhome units with rooftop patios from 20 to 94.  Changing the renderings for the townhome units ACTION: RESOLUTION NO. 18-78, AUTHORIZE THE EXECUTION OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH TRUONG PROPERTIES, LLC FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT APPROXIMATELY 3579-3605 SOUTH REDWOOD ROAD Steve Pastorik, CED, discussed proposed Resolution 18-78 that would authorize the execution of an amendment to the Development Agreement with Truong Properties, LLC for property located at approximately 3579-3605 South Redwood Road.

The Planning Commission recommended approval of the zone change subject to an amendment to the development agreement on this property that was approved in 2016. Below is a summary of the proposed changes to the development agreement.  Reducing the number of commercial buildings from 3 to 2  Changing the elevations for the 2 remaining commercial buildings  Increasing the minimum townhome size from 1,800 to 1,900 square feet  Adding finished basements to all townhome units (498 SF for 2 story units and 322 SF for 3 story units)  Increasing the number of townhome units with rooftop patios from 20 to 94.  Changing the elevations for the townhome units Councilmember Buhler asked how many additional townhomes are being proposed. Steve replied approximately 16 units. Councilmember Nordfelt clarified that a finished basement will be installed into every unit. Steve replied yes. He indicated that these townhomes also have additional outdoor space than a typical design due to the patios and rooftop decks.  MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – JUNE 5, 2018 -5- Councilmember Nordfelt asked if there are any restrictions on what can be displayed on the patios. Steve replied that this development will be operated by an HOA but added that it could be worked into the agreement if the Council wishes.

The City Council will consider Ordinance 18-20 and Resolution 18-78 at the Regular Council Meeting scheduled June 12, 2018, at 6:30 P.M. ORDINANCE 18-21: AMEND SECTIONS 3-10-1002 AND 3-10-1004 OF THE WEST VALLEY CITY CODE TO AMEND PROVISIONS GOVERNING THE WEST VALLEY SISTER CITY COMMITTEE Councilmember Don Christensen presented proposed Ordinance 18-21 that would amend sections 3-10-1002 and 3-10-1004 of the West Valley City Code to amend provisions governing the West Valley Sister City Committee. Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as follows: The Sister City Committee was originally created to facilitate relationships and exchange programs between the City and other municipalities around the world. The proposed ordinance would offer additional detail regarding the goals of the Sister City Committee and activities that can be pursued to further those goals. The ordinance would also clarify that funds for the Sister City Committee can come either from direct appropriation from the City or from fundraising efforts by the Committee. Finally, the ordinance requires the Sister City Committee to report annually on the activities of the Committee, expenditures, and plans for the next year’s budget and activities. Mayor Bigelow stated that he felt the economic development emphasis was missing from the proposal. He also expressed concern regarding humanitarian activities and the City’s involvement. Councilmember Christensen explained that humanitarian efforts have been discussed and involvement has occurred with the existing Sister City’s now. He added that economic development has always been a major driving factor and is defined in the national definition for Sister City relations. Councilmember Buhler asked if one purpose is more important as far as cultural exchanges, educational exchanges, or economic exchanges. He stated he is fine with three equal goals and the emphasis may change from time to time.  MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – JUNE 5, 2018 -6- Mayor Bigelow stated that the Chamber of Commerce or local businesses aren’t included and questioned whether they should be. Councilmember Buhler noted that he felt one of the bullets in the ordinance covers this point. Councilmember Huynh asked if $30,000 funding from the City is included in this proposal. Councilmember Christensen replied that this is not being proposed. He indicated the Committee may submit yearly requests to the City if needed. Councilmember Christensen noted that the 150 Golden Spike Anniversary is next year and the Sister City in Taiwan is interested in attending an event to commemorate this. Mayor Bigelow requested that any event be brought to the Council beforehand so that it can be explained what will be achieved and gained from the effort. He stated that he would like the Committee to keep the Council apprised of plans and activities. Councilmember Huynh asked if the Committee could also consider putting together a 3-5 year plan. Councilmember Christensen replied that this could be worked on but added that political changes in government do make it difficult. Councilmember Lang asked if there is a provision that students that are sent to various Sister City’s are from West Valley City. Councilmember Christensen replied that this is something the Committee will strive to do and indicated that it can be written into the bylaws. Councilmember Lang stated that it hasn’t been the practice in the past and she would like the commitment in the ordinance. Councilmember Huynh stated that if the Committee works in advance, students will be happy to visit various Sister City’s. Councilmember Buhler stated the Committee seems to be heading in the right direction. The City Council will consider Ordinance 18-21 at the Regular Council Meeting scheduled June 12, 2018, at 6:30 P.M.

The sink hole resulted from the collapse of  MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – JUNE 5, 2018 -7- corroded corrugated metal pipe. The pipe was repaired at the spot of the collapse, but the pipe in the entire neighborhood was assessed and it was determined that other collapses are imminent and that complete replacement is necessary. This project replaces all existing corrugated metal pipe within the Briargate neighborhood area. Wayne Pyle, City Manager, asked if there is anything unusual about the neighborhood that could cause issues. Dan replied that right-of-way’s are needing to be acquired on a few properties but nothing significantly out of the ordinary. Councilmember Buhler asked where the funding is coming from. Dan replied from the storm water fund balance. He indicated that nothing has been delayed and money hasn’t been taken from another project to complete this repair. Councilmember Fitisemanu asked if there are any similar areas in the City that could have the potential for this issue. Russ Willardson, Public Works Director, replied that an evaluation was conducted and there may be 3 or 4 other issues which is better than anticipated. Wayne asked how the parameters of the project were determined. Dan replied all the corrugate metal is being replaced in this area.

Mr. Jensen would like to subdivide the property in order to create one additional lot for a future single family dwelling. The property is approximately .75 acres in size. The City’s Subdivision Ordinance requires that all flag lots have a minimum square footage of 12,000 square feet. Based on the size of the existing property, the applicant is able to plat two single family lots. The front lot, or lot 1 will be approximately 7,000 square feet, while the back lot (lot 2) will be approximately 22,230 square feet. Street improvements are currently in place along 3200 West.

These improvements will need to be coordinated with Granger Hunter Improvement District and the City Public Works Department. As mentioned previously, the flag lot is intended to be used for a new single family dwelling. In cases where only 1 new lot is being proposed, the City has waived the  MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – JUNE 5, 2018 -9- requirement to submit a soils report. However, this waiver is based on a field investigation by the Building Official regarding basement depth. If sufficient evidence does not exist wherein the Building Official is comfortable establishing the footing depth, the builder will be required to submit a soils report prior to issuance of a building permit. Based on a field investigation by the Building Official, a basement will be approved for the new lot. Councilmember Christensen asked if the existing lot is surrounded by the proposed lot.

UTAH LEAGUE OF CITIES AND TOWNS CONFERENCE UPDATE Councilmember Don Christensen displayed a YouTube video that provided an overview of the conference. He indicated it was active and well attended.
