Mayor Lang informed a public hearing had been advertised for the Regular Council
Meeting scheduled September 17, 2024, in order for the City Council to hear and
consider public comments regarding Application GPZ-4-2024, Filed by Edge Homes,
Requesting a General Plan Change from General Commercial to Medium Density
Residential (7 to 12 units/acre) and a Zone Change from C-2 (General Commercial) to
RM (Multiple Unit Dwelling Residential)
Proposed Ordinances 24-38, 24-39, and Resolution 24-136 related to the proposal
to be considered by the City Council subsequent to the public hearing, was
discussed as follows:
ACTION: ORDINANCE NO. 24-38, AMEND THE GENERAL PLAN TO
SHOW A CHANGE OF LAND USE FROM GENERAL COMMERCIAL TO
MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL (7 TO 12 UNITS/ACRE) FOR
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3688 SOUTH REDWOOD ROAD ON 26.26
ACRES
Steve Pastorik, CED, discussed proposed Ordinance 24-38 that would amend the
General Plan to Show a Change of Land Use from General Commercial to Medium
Density Residential (7 to 12 Units/Acre) for Property Located at 3688 South Redwood
Road on 26.26 Acres
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included
information as follows:
MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – SEPTEMBER 3, 2024
-3-
If this application is approved, the applicant intends to redevelop the
property into a residential development with a total of 300 for-sale units
comprised on 3-story condos (40 units), 2-story townhomes with four
different building designs (244 units), and single family detached homes
(16 units). The proposed density of the project is 11.4 units/acre. This
project would replace the Redwood Drive-In Theater and swap meet.
The applicant’s original proposal included requests for several ordinance
exceptions such as a reduction to the required percentage of brick on the
rear-load townhomes, an exception on the required patio/balcony on some
condo units, and reductions to the required parking. The applicant is no
longer requesting these exceptions. The one remaining exception is the
request to allow two-car garages for the single family homes instead of
three-car garages given the lot widths.
Included with this issue paper is the traffic impact study required for
projects with 100 units or more as well as written comments and petitions
from the public.

ACTION: RESOLUTION NO. 24-136, AUTHORIZE THE CITY TO ENTER
INTO A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH EDGE HOMES UTAH, LLC
FOR APPROXIMATELY 26.26 ACRES OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT
APPROXIMATELY 3688 SOUTH REDWOOD ROAD
Steve Pastorik, CED, discussed proposed Resolution 24-136 that would authorize
the City to Enter Into a Development Agreement with Edge Homes Utah, LLC for
Approximately 26.26 Acres of Property Located at Approximately 3688 South
Redwood Road
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included
information as follows:
Edge Homes has submitted a General Plan/zone change application (GPZ-
4-2024) on 26.26 acres to change the General Plan from General
Commercial to Medium Density Residential (7 to 12 units/acre) and the
zoning from C-2 (General Commercial) to RM (Multiple Unit Dwelling
Residential). The Planning Commission recommended approval of the
General Plan/zone change subject to a development agreement.
Below is a summary of the standards in the development agreement:
The total number of residential units is capped at 300.
The minimum square footages are established for all housing
types.
Renderings of the different housing types are included along with
allowed exterior materials.
The amenities will include a clubhouse with a fitness center,
kitchen, bathrooms, and gathering areas; a swimming pool with
lounge chairs and shade structures; pickleball courts; play areas;
gathering areas; picnic tables and shade structures; dog waste
stations; bike racks; trash receptacles; and an entry feature along
Redwood Road.
MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – SEPTEMBER 3, 2024
-5-
A list of interior features for each housing type is included.
Required fencing is outlined.
A list of off-site improvements is specified.
Councilmember Christensen asked for a summary of the traffic study. Steve replied
that one major suggestion was the recommendation to add an additional right-of-
way to add a turn lane onto 3800 South from 1950 West. He noted that this is
addressed in the proposed Development Agreement. Mayor Lang verified that there
is a light to the north end of 1950 West at 3500 South. Steve replied yes.
Councilmember Whetstone asked if many comments have been received by
residents or businesses next to the proposed development. Steve replied that the
vast majority of comments have been received by patrons or vendors of the Swap
Meet.
Councilmember Harmon stated that he is nervous to approve new developments
with the current boarding home issue happening across the City. He asked if there
was a way to deter this type of situation in the Development Agreement or if
basements could be removed to prevent the likelihood of this happening. Steve
replied that he could discuss this with the developer but noted that basements add
value. Mayor Lang stated that she would rather have basements included so that
garages can be used for cars instead of storage. She noted that she would like to see
parking on 3800 South prohibited. Mayor Lang asked how deep the driveways are.
Steve replied that the Code requires at least 18 feet driveway depths though some
will be larger than that. Councilmember Nordfelt asked if 3800 South could be
signed as no parking without needing to approve this item. Steve replied yes.
Councilmember Nordfelt asked if the applicant counted on-street parking as part of
their parking totals. Steve replied no. Councilmember Huynh stated that he believes
there needs to be more than 2 entry and exit locations. Steve replied that there are
three, one from Redwood Road, one from 3800 South, and one from 1950 West.
Mayor Lang expressed concern regarding the proposed entry/exit onto 1950 West
due to the proximity of the elementary school. She suggested a right in, right out
further south on 1950 West. Councilmember Harmon asked where snow removal
will be pushed. Steve replied that this is a concern that was expressed by Public
Works. Councilmember Whetstone asked if there have been many exceptions to
the 3-car garage requirement. Steve replied that exceptions have been made and
noted that the proposed single-family lots are too small for 3 garages.
Councilmember Harmon asked how wide the lots are. Steve replied 45-50 feet.
Mayor Lang expressed concern regarding the lack of space for extra cars or RV’s
and the likelihood that this will push parking to the street. Mayor Lang asked if
these units will be rental or ownership. Steve replied all units will be for sale.
MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – SEPTEMBER 3, 2024

Councilmember Huynh asked if there will be an HOA. Steve replied yes.
Councilmember Whetstone asked if the HOA can restrict the number of rentals.
Steve replied yes. Mayor Lang asked if this could be put into a development
agreement. Steve replied that he would need to consult with Legal.
Councilmember Fitisemanu asked if there have been other compelling ideas of
other uses for this property. Steve replied that there was a proposal 3 years ago from
a different developer looking to do residential but they pulled their application prior
to Planning Commission consideration. He noted that Economic Development
provided an opinion on the property as well and determined that there is no real
demand for retail given the size of the property. Councilmember Huynh asked if
there is any commercial proposed as part of this application. Steve replied no.
Mayor Lang asked what the Council decided on as a best use for the property when
the General Plan was discussed. Steve replied it was a mix of commercial on
Redwood Road, medium density in the middle, and single family on the west.
Councilmember Huynh stated that he would prefer this approach.
Councilmember Fitisemanu asked if the City has done any additional outreach to
surrounding property owners. Steve replied not beyond the normal noticing but
added that the developers have talked to the neighboring community.
Mayor Lang asked how wide 1950 West is. Dan Johnson, Public Works Director,
replied there is room for 2 lanes but not 3. He noted that on street parking would be
problematic but could be prohibited. Mayor Lang stated that she would like to see
the single-family properties have wider lots with 3 car garages because she believes
parking issues will be significant. After brief further discussion, the Council
requested thoughtful discussion about snow removal, adjusted access on 1950
West, and adjustments to the lots sizes for single family homes.
The City Council will consider Ordinance 24-38, 24-39 and Resolution 24-136 at
the Regular Council Meeting scheduled September 17, 2024 at 6:30 P.M.
PUBLIC HEARINGS SCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 10, 2024
A. ACCEPT PUBLIC INPUT REGARDING APPLICATION ZT-8-2024,
FILED BY BRIAN HASKELL, REQUESTING A ZONE TEXT CHANGE
TO AMEND SECTIONS 7-6-302 AND 7-6-306 TO ALLOW PROPERTY
ZONED C-2 (GENERAL COMMERCIAL) AND M (MANUFACTURING)
TO BE INCLUDED WITH PROPERTY ZONED C-3 (TRANSITIONAL
COMMERCIAL) TO MEET THE MINIMUM DISTRICT SIZE FOR THE
C-3 ZONE
MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – SEPTEMBER 3, 2024
-7-
Mayor Lang informed a public hearing had been advertised for the Regular Council
Meeting scheduled September 10, 2024, in order for the City Council to hear and
consider public comments regarding Application ZT-8-2024, Filed by Brian Haskell,
Requesting a Zone Text Change to Amend Sections 7-6-302 and 7-6-306 to Allow
Property Zoned C-2 (General Commercial) and M (Manufacturing) to be Included with
Property Zoned C-3 (Transitional Commercial) to Meet the Minimum District Size for
the C-3 Zone.
Proposed Ordinance 24-36 related to the proposal to be considered by the City
Council subsequent to the public hearing, was discussed as follows:
ACTION: ORDINANCE NO. 24-36, AMEND SECTIONS 7-6-302 AND 7-6-306
OF THE WEST VALLEY MUNICIPAL CODE TO AMEND REGULATIONS
CONCERNING PROPERTY ELIGIBLE FOR C-3 ZONING
Steve Pastorik, CED, discussed proposed Ordinance 24-36 that would amend
Sections 7-6-302 and 7-6-306 of the West Valley Municipal Code to Amend
Regulations Concerning Property Eligible for C-3 Zoning
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included
information as follows:
Brian Haskell is proposing an ordinance amendment to change to Sections
7-6-302 and 7-6-306 to allow property zoned C-2 (General Commercial)
and M (Manufacturing) to be included with property zoned C-3
(Transitional Commercial) to meet the minimum district size for the C-3
zone. The C-3 zone currently includes a minimum district size of 5 acres.
An individual parcel within the C-3 zone can be as small as 43,560 sq. ft.
(1 acre); however, the property must be adjacent to other C-3 zoned
parcels that together total 5 acres.
The applicant provided the following justification for this request:
“Section 7-5-305(4) reads, ‘Property zoned C-3 or M may be included
with property zoned C-2 to meet the minimum district size for the C-2
zone.
C-3 should be allowed the same opportunity as a C-2 application, thus
allowing adjacent properties to be used to meet the minimum district size
requirements.”
Staff provided the Planning Commission the following information for
their consideration:
MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – SEPTEMBER 3, 2024
-8-
The C-2 and M zones allow many of the same uses allowed in the
C-3 zone.
The minimum district size seems to be geared toward preventing
spot zoning where a relatively small property is zoned different
from everything else around it. Maintaining a 5-acre district size
next to residential seems more important than trying to maintain a
5-acre district size next to C-2 or M zoning where commercial uses
are allowed.
The City Council will consider Ordinance 24-36 at the Regular Council Meeting
scheduled April 2, 2024 at 6:30 P.M.
B. ACCEPT PUBLIC INPUT REGARDING APPLICATION Z-7-2024, FILED
BY BRIAN HASKELL, REQUESTING A ZONE CHANGE FROM M
(MANUFACTURING) WITH THE DECKER LAKE OVERLAY ZONE TO
C-3 (TRANSITIONAL COMMERCIAL) WITHOUT THE DECKER LAKE
STATION OVERLAY ZONE FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3076
SOUTH DECKER LAKE DRIVE
Mayor Lang informed a public hearing had been advertised for the Regular Council
Meeting scheduled September 10, 2024, in order for the City Council to hear and
consider public comments regarding Z-7-2024, Filed by Brian Haskell, Requesting a
Zone Change from M (Manufacturing) with the Decker Lake Overlay Zone to C-3
(Transitional Commercial) Without the Decker Lake Station Overlay Zone for Property
Located at 3076 South Decker Lake Drive
Proposed Ordinance 24-37 related to the proposal to be considered by the City
Council subsequent to the public hearing, was discussed as follows:
ACTION: ORDINANCE NO. 24-37, AMEND THE ZONING MAP TO SHOW
A CHANGE OF ZONE FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3076 SOUTH
DECKER LAKE DRIVE FROM M WITH THE DECKER LAKE OVERLAY
ZONE TO C-3 WITHOUT THE DECKER LAKE OVERLAY ZONE
Steve Pastorik, CED, discussed proposed Ordinance 24-37 that would amend the
Zoning Map to Show a Change of Zone for Property Located at 3076 South Decker
Lake Drive from M with the Decker Lake Overlay Zone to C-3 Without the Decker
Lake Overlay Zone
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included
information as follows:
MINUTES OF COUNCIL STUDY MEETING – SEPTEMBER 3, 2024
-9-
Included with this issue paper is a document from the applicant that
includes reasons for the proposed zone change. In summary, the applicant
is hoping to expand the list of possible tenants while prohibiting more
intense uses allowed in the M zone.
For reference, a copy of the commercial and manufacturing zones use
table is included with this report. All uses that are regulated differently in
the C-3 zone without the Decker Lake Station Overlay Zone from the M
zone with the Decker Lake Station Overlay Zone are highlighted. In
talking with the applicant, the uses the owner is most interested in are
automobile service and warehouse.
Under the current zoning ordinance, the C-3 zone has a minimum district
size of 5 acres. An individual parcel within the C-3 zone can be as small as
43,560 sq. ft. (1 acre); however, the property must be adjacent to other C-3
zoned parcels that together total 5 acres. In this case, there is no C-3
zoning adjacent to the subject property. To address this issue, the applicant
submitted application ZT-8-2024 that would allow property zoned C-2 or
M to be counted toward the minimum district size of the C-3 zone. If
application ZT-8-2024 is not approved, this application cannot be
approved.
The City Council will consider Ordinance 24-37 at the Regular Council Meeting
scheduled September 10, 2024 at 6:30 P.M.
RESOLUTION 24-137: APPROVE A GRANT AGREEMENT WITH CITIES
STRONG FOUNDATION
Dan Johnson, Public Works, presented proposed Resolution 24-137 that would approve a
Grant Agreement With Cities Strong Foundation.
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as
follows:
The City has recently purchased certain equipment for use by the Public Works
Department and Operation My Hometown. Funding for said purchases was to be
made available through a grant provided by the Cities Strong Foundation. The City
and CSF have prepared an appropriate Grant Agreement to ensure that the grant
funds are expended for the agreed upon purpose. The terms of said Grant
Agreement are customary and appropriate for a grant of this type.
The City Council will consider Resolution 24-137 at the Regular Council Meeting

RESOLUTION 24-138: AUTHORIZE THE EXECUTION OF A CHANGE ORDER
TO AN AGREEMENT WITH HYLAND SOFTWARE, INC
Ken Cushing, IT, presented proposed Resolution 24-138 that would authorize the Execution
of a Change Order to an Agreement With Hyland Software, Inc
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as
follows:
The City uses Hyland's OnBase as its primary document management system,
which supports various workflows and processes across multiple departments. Due
to the system's complexity and the need for seamless integration across multiple
servers, it is recommended that Hyland perform the upgrade. This request is for the
City Council to approve a change order of $22,500 to the existing agreement, which
initially allocated $7,900 for consulting hours.
OnBase is a comprehensive document management system that centralizes
document storage, automates workflows, and enhances collaboration across city
departments and with citizens. It is crucial for maintaining efficient operations and
ensuring compliance with record-keeping standards. The system's integration with
various city services necessitates a professional upgrade to ensure continuity and
performance. The proposed change order will allow Hyland to execute the upgrade,
leveraging their expertise to minimize risks and disruptions.
The City Council will consider Resolution 24-138 at the Regular Council Meeting
scheduled September 10, 2024 at 6:30 P.M
RESOLUTION 24-139: RATIFY THE APPOINTMENT OF LYLE PHELPS AS A
MEMBER OF THE WEST VALLEY CITY AUDIT REVIEW COMMITTEE
Nichole Camac, City Recorder, presented proposed Resolution 24-139 that would ratify the
Appointment of Lyle Phelps as a Member of the West Valley City Audit Review Committee.
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as
follows:
The Audit Review Committee consists of five members who serve for a term of
three years. The Committee is comprised of the City Manager, two members of the
City Council, one appointed citizen and a finance director from another community.
The City Manager has recommended that Lyle Phelps be appointed as a member of
this Committee. Mr. Phelps is willing to accept this appointment for the term
commencing September 10, 2024 and ending December 31, 2024.
