Action Items

A. Consider Ordinance No. 2023-O-01 Amending Chapter 5.08 of the Midvale Municipal Code regarding Business Licenses
 Midvale City staff recommend approving amendments to Section 5.08 of the Midvale City Code, Business License Fees and Bonding Schedules. Amending the ordinance will ensure compliance with state code and provide transparency to the public.

The business licensing fee schedule explanation does not currently define the purpose intended for the fees being charged. The amendments would specify the usage of the funds for current and future business owners.

The Code currently reflects an incorrect fee schedule from years ago. The City Council adopts a new fee schedule every year. The amendment will refer to the most recent fee schedule.
B.

Consider Resolution No. 2023-R-06 Authorizing the City to enter into a Month-to-Month Lease Agreement for the Property Located at 7683 South Holden Street between Midvale City and UGIA

 If approved, the resolution would authorize the City to enter into a month-to-month lease agreement with IGIA. UGIA is a non-profit organization whose primary goal is to provide law enforcement training and investigative assistance across Utah specific to gang-related crime and issues. The lease allows full use of the property specifically for Choose Gang Free Advocates programming. The programming will all be administered by UGIA staff with specific requirements for participation in the programming.

It is anticipated that the property will be redeveloped as part of the Main Street CDA project area in 2023/2024. This lease is a month-to-month lease which will allow the property to be available once redevelopment conditions are most advantageous. In the interim, the building will be used and maintained by UGIA, which will relieve the City from the added cost of maintaining the property.
VIII.
Discussion Item



A. Discuss General Plan Moderate-Income Housing Element Amendment and State Code Compliance
 Midvale City requests an amendment to the General Plan Moderate-Income Housing Element to be in compliance with Utah State Code 10-9a-403 and 17-27a-403 which requires specified municipalities and counties to develop a five-year plan that provides a realistic opportunity to meet the need for additional moderate-income housing.

Because Midvale City has a fixed guide-way public transit station the Moderate-Income Housing Element includes a strategy to develop and adopt a station area plan to be in compliance with Utah State Code 10-9a-403(2)(b)(iv).
B. Discuss Amending Chapter 3.02 of the Midvale Municipal Code regarding Procurement

Updates are needed to assure the City’s procurement processes are efficient, effective, and competitive in the current economy. This includes updates that more accurately reflect processes and technologies as well as updating our exceptions to make our process more fluid. We are also proposing increases to our thresholds to be more in line with the cost of inflation and the State of Utah, which recently increased its thresholds.
C. Discuss Amending Midvale Code Section 8.10.030 & 8.10.060 - Jordan Bluffs Institutional Controls Ordinance

 The purpose of the Institutional Controls (ICs) is to prevent unacceptable human exposure to contaminants that remain on site by ensuring the protection, maintenance, and improvement of physical barriers that have been placed on the various properties. With the continued development of Jordan Bluffs, the Gardner Company has requested amending the ordinance to clarify and further detail the responsibility for compliance with the institutional controls by property owners. The section will require all property to fall under the oversight of a single “Project Association” which will be responsible for the continued compliance with the requirements of the IC. Individual property owners will be primarily responsible for compliance within the Property Owners Association (POA) which will be required to be sub-associations of the Project Association.

Therefore, these amendments will require each property owner to be responsible for compliance with the IC associated with its property through the creation of a POA. The Project Association will have oversight and enforcement responsibility over all POAs as well as the sloped areas along the Jordan River and 7800 South and the wetland areas. The City remains the ultimate authority over the protection and proper maintenance of the Jordan Bluffs site and has the authority to make any repairs and recover any associated costs it determines necessary.

These changes in no way reduce the overall objective or effectiveness of the ICs, which is to prevent human exposure to contaminants. The changes provide additional levels of accountability to ensure the protection and maintenance of the cap and ensure the overall health safety of the area.

C. Strategy sessions to discuss the purchase, exchange, or lease of real property
D. Discussion regarding deployment of security personnel, devices, or systems
