budget of West Valley City for the Fiscal Year beginning July 1, 2019 and ending
June 30, 2020 to reflect changes in the budget from increased revenues and
authorize the disbursement of funds.
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included
information as follows:
State Statute Title 10, Chapter 6, Utah Code Annotated 1953, as amended,
allows the City of West Valley to amend its budget during the year. The
West Valley City holds public hearings on budget amendments on a

money must be used for protective equipment. Colleen Jacobs, Chief of Police,
added that in addition to the protective equipment, the money can be used for
sanitization services, overtime, and other related pandemic uses.
Mayor Bigelow asked what the park impact fees are being used for. Nancy Day,
Parks and Recreation Director, stated that the majority of these funds are being used
for the completion of Grand Vistas Park while some will be used for minor
upgrades at Centennial Park. Mayor Bigelow asked if these projects will use most
of the funds in the account. Nancy replied the amount is significant, but she is not
sure of the exact amount remaining. Mayor Bigelow asked what parks are next on
the priority list. Nancy replied Trang Property just east of Redwood Road and
Westridge Estates. She added that parks are evaluated for need and priorities can
be adjusted. Mayor Bigelow asked what the Ridge and Stonebridge gratuities is.
Nancy replied that there is revenue projected for gratuities related to caterings,
weddings, golf pros, etc. She indicated that the projections were placed into the
budget this year but not into the expense so this just offsets the revenue that was
put in place. Mayor Bigelow asked if this has been corrected in the new budget.

fourteen years. City employees who retire may also continue to have benefits under
the plan as long as they pay the full premium. The proposal from SelectHealth was
at competitive rates that fit within anticipated budget parameters.

insurance. Paul replied no and added that now is a good time for the City to do so again.

Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as
follows:
In 2018, the Public Works Department applied for and received funds from UDOT
through the Safe Routes to School program to build improvements on Crystal
Avenue between Lester Street and Hempstead Street.
Through this agreement, UDOT will reimburse the city up to $344,000 upon
completion of the improvements.
The city will design the project and procure the services of a contractor for
construction. It is anticipated that the construction of these improvements will take
place in the summer of 2021.
Mayor Bigelow asked if existing sidewalks exist from Crystal Avenue to the bridge
crossing that leads to Redwood Road. Dan replied there are sidewalks on Lester but none
on Malvern. Dan noted that this project only funds Crystal Avenue. Mayor Bigelow asked
when sidewalks will be constructed on Malvern Avenue. Dan replied that funds are not
available for this project and this is lower on the priority list due to low traffic volume and
the dead end. Mayor Bigelow stated that he feels this should be ranked higher and noted
that children shouldn’t walk on the street, particularly during the winter months. Dan stated
that the City did an extensive design effort on the project 5-6 years ago and determined that
the entire roadway would need to be reconstructed to provide curb, gutter, and sidewalk.
Russ Willardson, Public Works Director, agreed and noted that most projects being
completed now are being funded by an outside agency. He indicated that funds are tight,
and the City is doing the best it can to get sidewalks in the many important neighborhoods
throughout the City. Paul asked if Crystal Avenue has sidewalks that lead to Redwood

not change people’s behavior. Mayor Bigelow indicated that the current status of

he is more amenable to the City going to yellow due to economic impacts and
allowing people to participate in religious services. Councilmember Buhler stated
that he is concerned about the amount of cases and feels its important to target
hotspots and education in dangerous areas. Mayor Bigelow noted there is lot of
media coverage and people have basically determined what they are going to do at
