Steve Pastorik, CD Director, indicated that the Council requested changes regarding

Jonathan Springmeyer, ED Director, stated that the following item had been added to both
the Special Redevelopment Agency and Regular City Council meetings.
RDA Reso 24-07 and City Council Ord 24-18
Adopt an Amendment to the Southwest Economic Development Area Project
Area Plan to Remove a Parcel
The Southwest Economic Development Area was created to encourage
development and redevelopment in the southwestern part of the City. The
project area will expire in the near future. Due to the configuration of the
property described above, the property owner will be required to
consolidate and subdivide that parcel and adjacent property in order to
develop. Salt Lake County will not approve a property that is partially
included and partially excluded from an economic development area. This
ordinance removes the property described above to permit the owner to
move forward with development.
This action will not have a negative impact on the economic development
area and is being undertaken with the support and at the request of the
property owner.
Mr. Springmeyer also noted that the City was granted an additional $500,000 grant for the
EV Charging Stations project.
Upon inquiry by Mayor Lang, members of the Council had no further questions or concerns
regarding items listed on the Agendas for the Regular City Council and Special
Redevelopment Agency meetings scheduled later this night.
