II. Public Comments		Public comment is taken at the beginning of the meeting for topics that are not included on the agenda.

By law, the city council may only take action on items specifically published on the agenda.

VII. Public Hearings	Consider Proposed Amendments to the FY2022 Budget for the General Fund and Other Funds as necessary	The City is moving the GIS department from the Engineering Department to the Information Technology Department. Therefore, budgeted salaries from the Engineering budget will be moved to the Information Technology budget. This is a shift of funds and there is no budget addition. Due to supply chain issues, the City Council has voted to use Water Fund Balance to pay for some meter and water inventory budgeted in fiscal year 2023 in fiscal year 2022. This is amending the budget to make those purchases.
VIII. Consent Agenda		The Consent Agenda groups routine meeting discussion points into a single agenda item. In so doing, the grouped items can be approved in one action, rather than through the filing of multiple motions.
IX. Actions Items
A.	Consider Resolution No. 2022-R-16 Adopting Task Order #141.47.100 with Hanse, Allen & Luce for the design and construction management services for 2022 Pipeline Replacement	In our continuing effort to replace aging and undersized waterlines, we would like to begin the design work on the next two lines on the list. These projects are the replacement of the 6” and 8” lines in Center Street between the Trax line and State Street, along with the replacement of the line in High Tech Drive from 7200 South to our north border. We anticipate that this project will cost us roughly $800,000.
B.	Consideration and Approval of Resolution No. 2022-R-17 Confirming the Appointment of Molly Signoretty as the Chair of the Harvest Days Festival Committee	The Mayor will present Molly Signoretty to be appointed as Chair of the Harvest Days Festival Committee.
C.	Consider and Select a List of Final Names to Submit to the Public for Consideration for the Official Name of the New Midvale Fire Station #125	On March 16, 2022, the city launched the “Name that Fire Station” campaign to solicit input from the community regarding names for the new Midvale Fire Station #125 which will be located at 655 W Center Street. Twenty responses were received. The City Council will narrow down the list of names to no more than five names. The list of finalists will be shared with the community via Engage Midvale to choose the official name of the new building.
D.	Consideration of Resolution No. 2022-R-18 Adopting a New City Council District Map	State law requires that cities create new city council districts after every decennial census. The city uses census information to ensure that the new council districts are substantially equal. Following three public meetings and review of comments provided by Midvale residents online, the City Council will consider adopting a new City Council District Map that will be used for the next 10 years.
X. Discussion Items
A.	Discuss Fiscal Year 2023 Capital Projects and Council Suggested Projects	This discussion will lead to capital projects and initiatives to be included in the fiscal year 2023 tentative budget, which is expected to be released for public inspection on April 26, 2022. Local governments undertake "capital projects" to acquire, develop, improve or maintain various facilities, other infrastructure and/or equipment. These projects are generally large in scale, require large sums of money, and are long-term.
XI. Adjourn		The City Council votes to adjourn the meeting.

A representative from Family Support Center will accept the proclamation.

VI. Public Hearings
A.	Consideration of Amendments to Title 17 of the Midvale City Municipal Code to address minimum parking requirements within multi-family and mixed-use developments	The amendment will prohibit extra fees for residents to use minimum parking that must be provided for development. Anything above the required minimum parking for each unit may be charged, but the minimum parking may not be assessed as an extra charge over and above the rent, lease, or sale of a unit.
B.	Consider Redistricting Map Options for the Midvale City Council Districts	Every ten years, city council districts must be redrawn so that each district is substantially equal in population. This process, called redistricting, is important in ensuring that each city council member represents about the same number of constituents. Redistricting is based on data from the U.S. Census, which was released in August 2021. The Midvale City Council is responsible (per Utah State Code) for setting the city council member districts. Two open houses and a survey were conducted to receive public input. The city council will discuss the results to determine how to redraw the council districts.

C.	Consider Resolution No. 2022-R-13 Approving the Purchase of Water Meters and Water Department Inventory	Approval would allow city staff to purchase additional water meters and water meter inventory.
D.	Consider Resolution No. 2022-R-14 Authorizing Specific City Employees to make Changes to the City’s Public Treasurers Investment Fund Accounts	Approval would give the City Treasurer and Administrative Services Director authority to make changes, as needed, to the City’s Public Treasurers Investment Fund account.
