PUBLIC HEARINGS SCHEDULED FOR JULY 14, 2020
A. ACCEPT PUBLIC INPUT REGARDING APPLICATION GPZ-5-2020,
FILED BY JAMES GRAHAM, REQUESTING A GENERAL PLAN
CHANGE FROM RURAL RESIDENTIAL (1 TO 2 UNITS/ACRE) TO LOW
DENSITY RESIDENTIAL (3 TO 4 UNITS/ACRE) AND A ZONE CHANGE
FROM A (AGRICULTURE, MINIMUM LOT SIZE 1/2 ACRE) TO RS
(RESIDENTIAL SUSTAINABILITY, MINIMUM LOT SIZE 8,000
SQUARE FEET)
Mayor Bigelow informed a public hearing had been advertised for the Regular
Council Meeting scheduled July 14, 2020, in order for the City Council to hear and
consider public comments regarding application GPZ-5-2020, filed by James
Graham, requesting a General Plan Change from Rural Residential (1 to 2 Units/Acre)
to Low Density Residential (3 to 4 Units/Acre) and a Zone Change from A
(Agriculture, Minimum Lot Size 1/2 Acre) to RS (Residential Sustainability, Minimum
Lot Size 8,000 Square Feet).
Proposed Ordinance 20-27 and 20-28 related to the proposal to be considered by
the City Council subsequent to the public hearing, were discussed as follows:
ACTION: ORDINANCE NO. 20-27, AMEND THE GENERAL PLAN TO
SHOW A CHANGE OF LAND USE FROM RURAL RESIDENTIAL (1 TO
2 UNITS/ACRE) TO LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL (3 TO 4
UNITS/ACRE) FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1580 WEST WHITLOCK
AVENUE
Steve Pastorik, CED, discussed proposed Ordinance 20-27 that would amend the
General Plan to show a change of land use from Rural Residential (1 to 2
Units/Acre) to Low Density Residential (3 to 4 Units/Acre) for property located at
1580 West Whitlock Avenue.
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included
information as follows:
The applicant has submitted a concept plan, which is attached, that shows
MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – JULY 7, 2020

the subject property being subdivided into 11 lots averaging 9,375 square
feet. The City will require the half width of both Whitlock and Chatham to
be dedicated as both halves have been used as roadways since before the
City was incorporated. Also attached are documents from the applicant
supporting this application and providing biographical background.
A development agreement is required for this project. Section 7-6-210.5 of
the Zoning Ordinance states: “No property shall be rezoned to the RS zone
without a development agreement that includes the following requirements
as minimum standards:…” The ordinance goes on to list the minimum
standards for sustainability, which are found in the attached copy of Section
7-6-210.5. Since the Planning Commission recommended denial, staff did
not prepare a development agreement. At the Council’s direction, staff will
prepare a development agreement for consideration.
Beginning in 2017, the applicant has made four applications to the City
before the current one to develop the subject property in a way other than
meeting the requirements of the existing A zone. Each of these prior
applications was denied by the Council.
ACTION: ORDINANCE NO. 20-28, AMEND THE ZONING MAP TO
SHOW A CHANGE OF ZONE FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1580
WEST WHITLOCK AVENUE ON 3.05 ACRES FROM A (AGRICULTURE,
MINIMUM LOT SIZE 1/2 ACRE) TO RS (RESIDENTIAL
SUSTAINABILITY, MINIMUM LOT SIZE 8,000 SQUARE FEET)
Steve Pastorik, CED, discussed proposed Ordinance 20-28 that would amend the
Zoning Map to show a change of zone for property located at 1580 West Whitlock
Avenue on 3.05 Acres from A (Agriculture, Minimum Lot Size 1/2 Acre) to RS
(Residential Sustainability, Minimum Lot Size 8,000 Square Feet).
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included
information as follows:
The applicant has submitted a concept plan, which is attached, that shows

the Zoning Ordinance states: “No property shall be rezoned to the RS zone
without a development agreement that includes the following requirements
as minimum standards:…” The ordinance goes on to list the minimum
standards for sustainability, which are found in the attached copy of Section
7-6-210.5. Since the Planning Commission recommended denial, staff did
not prepare a development agreement. At the Council’s direction, staff will
prepare a development agreement for consideration.
Beginning in 2017, the applicant has made four applications to the City
before the current one to develop the subject property in a way other than
meeting the requirements of the existing A zone. Each of these prior
applications was denied by the Council.
Councilmember Christensen asked what would make this application any different
than others that have been denied. Steve replied that the RS zone did not exist when
other applications were submitted. Councilmember Buhler stated that that RS zone
allows up to 10 acres and asked if this property would only be eligible to be rezoned
to RS or RE under current ordinance restrictions. Steve replied yes. Councilmember
Buhler asked if there are any other properties zoned RS. Steve replied no.
Councilmember Buhler asked why the Planning Commission denied the
application. Steve replied that the Planning Commission wanted to consider a
potential overlay zone in the Chesterfield area, as has been discussed in the past,
and also felt that this property was most suited to half acre agricultural lots.
Councilmember Lang stated that many residents prefer large, agricultural lots in
Chesterfield. She indicated that discussing an overlay zone should be a priority for
the Council in the coming months. Steve replied that there were conversations about
a potential overlay zone with the Council that included curb, gutter, and sidewalk,
smaller homes, exception to materials, etc. Councilmember Buhler asked how
many homes on how many acres could potentially be constructed under this
proposal. Steve replied that the concept shows 11 lots on approximately 3 acres but
the details of this will not be worked out until the subdivision phase of the process.
Councilmember Buhler stated that the Council wanted developers to take advantage
of the RS zone and he isn’t comfortable denying an application based on a
theoretical Chesterfield Overlay Zone. Councilmember Lang stated that she
wouldn’t be comfortable modifying design standards in an overlay zone. She
indicated that this particular property is next to higher density so she wouldn’t be
as opposed to approving this proposal but feels it’s important to discuss an overlay
zone in the next 6 months. Councilmember Buhler stated that he is concerned there
is no overall plan for Chesterfield. Councilmember Nordfelt agreed but noted that
that the properties to the north and west of this proposal are smaller lots so he feels
this proposal would be a good transition and a great opportunity to try the RS zone

in the City. Councilmember Christensen agreed. Councilmember Lang asked if
there is a road in the area with new curb and gutter. Steve replied not in this
particular section of Chesterfield. Councilmember Lang asked what the plan for
improvements would be. Steve replied that this decision would come as part of the
Subdivision application but could also be included in a Development Agreement if
the Council feels this application should be approved. Councilmember Huynh
stated that many residents in Chesterfield don’t like high density projects, but this
proposal may be a good transition with the surrounding neighborhood. Mayor
Bigelow stated that he is a little confused by the conversation because the intent of
an overlay zone in Chesterfield would be to restrict the development of smaller lots
and if that is the goal of the Council, this proposal does not meet that purpose. He
added that he is concerned about making quick decisions regarding an overlay zone
and noted that he feels much conversation would be needed before approving
something like this. Mayor Bigelow stated that he would be more inclined to deny
this application but encourage them to resubmit once an overlay zone is in place.
Councilmember Huynh agreed that this would make sense. Councilmember Lang
asked if a moratorium should be considered. Steve replied that it could but there is
typically not a large volume of rezone requests in Chesterfield. Councilmember
Lang asked how long it would take for staff to put together a proposed overlay zone.
Steve replied that there is already a draft that can be provided. Councilmember
Buhler stated that while he agrees with denying this application, he would like the
applicants to know that it’s a soft denial and encourage them to revisit after an
overlay zone is in place.
The City Council will consider Ordinance 20-27 and 20-28 at the Regular Council
Meeting scheduled July 14, 2020 at 6:30 P.M.
RESOLUTION 20-100: ENCOURAGE RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES TO
WEAR MASKS AND FOLLOW STATE AND COUNTY HEALTH GUIDELINES
Mayor Bigelow presented proposed Resolution 20-100 that would encourage residents and
businesses to wear masks and follow State and County Health Guidelines.
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as
follows:
In March, both the federal government and the state of Utah recognized the
existence of a health emergency created by the COVID-19 pandemic. Since that
time, significant changes have occurred in many aspects of daily life. In an effort
to slow the spread of the disease and allow Utahns to continue with as many
normal activities as possible during the pandemic, the state of Utah and Salt Lake
County have made several recommendations and enacted health orders pertaining
to individuals and businesses.
MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – JULY 7, 2020

The resolution encourages all residents to abide by these guidelines, including the
wearing of masks in public places.
Councilmember Buhler indicated that he received the Mayor’s revised resolution and
approves of this version. He noted that he would like to change the title to simply encourage
residents and businesses to follow health guidelines. He indicated that this would put the
emphasis on the Health Department and encourage residents to follow standards as they
are developed. Councilmember Lang stated that she would prefer that the resolution also
refer to face coverings and not masks as there are many different materials and methods
(such as face shields) being used. Councilmember Christensen stated that the first therefore
in the resolution would also need to be changed to reflect the title. Councilmember Nordfelt
suggested changing businesses to visitors. Councilmember Huynh expressed concern that
Salt Lake County has issued an order that requires residents to wear face masks and feels
that simply encouraging residents to follow health guidelines is contradictory.
Councilmember Buhler stated that residents should follow Health Department standards as
they are issued. Councilmember Christensen stated that every City has the right to
distribute their own ordinances and resolutions. He indicated that West Valley City is
simply allowing its citizens to exercise their rights and not requiring anything by resolution
or ordinance. Councilmember Huynh disagreed and indicated that the County has required
this, and West Valley City is a part of Salt Lake County. Mayor Bigelow noted that
Intermountain Hospitals have also provided an initiative to encourage facial coverings. The
Mayor and Council discussed varying perspectives on face coverings and requirements by
the County. Councilmember Fitisemanu stated that he is in favor of the resolution, even if
it is redundant. Mayor Bigelow indicated that the resolution is meant to show support.
Councilmember Lang asked Councilmember Huynh if he would prefer that face coverings
are required and not encouraged. Councilmember Huynh stated that he wants to follow
County guidelines or not do a resolution at all. Mayor Bigelow thanked Councilmember
Huynh for his statements and indicated that he represents many people who feel the same
way. He indicated the he doesn’t feel it changes the concept of the resolution and noted
that people will decide for themselves whether or not to wear face coverings. He added that
there are other issues related to COVID-19 that cause him greater concern.
Councilmember Huynh described rates and statistics of infected populations in West
Valley City and indicated that the City need to be firmer on requirements. Councilmember
Fitisemanu agreed with Councilmember Huynh but noted that the Council must come to a
consensus and it doesn’t appear that other members of the Council feel that stronger
language should be used in the resolution. He indicated that he and Councilmember Huynh
can use their own personal voice and platforms as Councilmembers to communicate a
stronger and more forceful approach to residents. Councilmember Fitisemanu stated that
he isn’t opposed to the resolution as it is if the rest of the Council feel it’s a sufficient
message. Councilmember Huynh disagreed and stated that he does not support the

Russ Willardson, Public Works Director, presented proposed Resolution 20-101 that would
authorize the purchase of a Tymco 600 Street Sweeper from Intermountain Sweeper.
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as
follows:
The City will use Utah State Contact with Intermountain Sweeper Company to replace the
2016 Tymco 600 with a Tymco 600 BAM Regenerative Air Sweeper. Public Works
Operations has dealt with Intermountain Sweeper Company on many trade-ins, receiving

follows:
