Resolution 25-06 (fiscal-year 2024–25 budget amendment)
The council voted to approve Resolution 25-06, described by staff as the final budget amendment for the fiscal year ending June 30 and consisting largely of housekeeping adjustments (fleet sales, investment earnings adjustments and similar items). A council member moved approval and another seconded; the roll-call vote recorded \"yes\" votes by named members including Council member Parkinson, Council member West and Council member Thomas, and the clerk announced the motion passed unanimously. The mover and seconder were not identified in the transcript.

Resolution 25-07 (interlocal agreement with Weber Human Services for senior services)
The council approved Resolution 25-07 to confirm a three-year interlocal agreement with Weber Human Services beginning July 1 to provide senior programming such as congregate meals and activities at the city’s senior center. Staff said the agreement designates the city as responsible for the physical facility maintenance and listed a contribution amount (mentioned in the meeting as roughly \"$6,000 and change\" for Weber Human Services personnel support) with an escalation clause discussed in the staff presentation. Staff also said the city is negotiating the escalation language (3% and CPI) with participating jurisdictions and hoped to separate those components for clarity. The mayor and council praised South Ogden for partnering to share cash support after South Ogden closed its center; staff indicated South Ogden will contribute and the arrangement helped secure Weber Human Services’ continuing role.

The vote on Resolution 25-07 was recorded by roll call with Council member Parkinson, Council member West, Council member Thomas and Council member Ziz Shah recorded as voting \"yes;\" the clerk announced the motion carried.

What the motions mean
Staff characterized the budget amendment as routine year-end adjustments and said the city expects to finalize numbers after the fiscal year closes. The interlocal agreement commits Weber Human Services to provide programming and services for three years and assigns the city responsibility for facility upkeep; South Ogden and other partners will share some cash contributions. City staff emphasized the senior center remains part-time in daily hours but staff reported increases in participation and new programming.

Votes (as recorded in the meeting transcript)
- Resolution 25-06 (FY24–25 budget amendment): motion moved/seconded (mover/second not specified in transcript). Roll-call yes votes recorded for Council member Parkinson, Council member West, Council member Thomas; mayoral/clerical announcements described the result as unanimous.

Sherry, a city staff member, explained Utah law requires the governing body to inform users when the city transfers fees for services provided by enterprise utility funds for city-owned facilities. She said the city regularly does not charge the city itself for utility services used during normal operations and that, absent that practice, those costs would be borne by property taxes. \"If there is not a weighting of the fees, then we would be imposing those through taxation,\" Sherry said. \"Where we are waiving them, the utility funds are absorbing that cost.\"

Sherry listed the primary uses as sanitary sewer, stormwater, refuse for public buildings, and irrigation of parks and open spaces where a secondary water connection is not available. She said estimated costs are included in the public notice and staff report.

No members of the public spoke during the hearing. The hearing closed with staff available for questions; council asked for clarification on why the practice exists and staff reiterated the transfer avoids charging taxpayers directly for utility consumption by city operations.

No formal council action occurred at the hearing; this is part of the annual budget notice and documentation requirements.","At the May 20 meeting staff presented the required public notice for the city’s annual practice of transferring utility fees to cover city-owned facility usage and irrigation where no secondary water connection exists.",{"_33":86,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":87,"_41":88,"_43":89,"_45":90,"_47":91,"_49":50,"_51":92,"_53":-5,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":93,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":94,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":71,"_72":73,"_74":73},6532033,"City opens public hearing on tentative fiscal 2025–26 budget; final vote scheduled in June",64,500000,564000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3428143-5c4e2805069d5eb2a49d2ed3cfb255b2&start=500&end=564","/articles/6532033/Utah/City-opens-public-hearing-on-tentative-fiscal-202526-budget-final-vote-scheduled-in-June","Washington Terrace staff opened a public hearing May 20 on the tentative fiscal year 2025–26 budget and the city’s plan for fiscal years 2027–30.

Sherry (staff) told the council that the tentative budget and supporting materials are available online and that staff will return to the council for follow-up at the June 3 meeting. \"We're going to do follow-up to the next meeting. Any changes to the tentative budget, we'll discuss those on the first meeting in June,\" Sherry said. She said the council is expected to adopt a final budget \"the second meeting in June with the certified tax rate and the consolidated fee schedule.\"

Council members did not offer substantive changes during the hearing and no members of the public spoke. Staff encouraged residents to review posted materials; Sherry noted podcasts summarizing portions of the budget are available on the city's website.

The hearing closed with no action taken; the tentative budget process will continue through the June meetings as staff updates assumptions and prepares the adoption ordinance and tax-rate certification.

Amy Rodriguez, identified in the hearing as the city’s Grama Manager, described the Victory Park work as a full replacement of the park’s playground equipment originally purchased when the park was constructed in February 2005. \"The new equipment that's there now is weather damaged. It's missing parts,\" Rodriguez said, adding staff has removed unsafe components and will replace the structures and surfacing with new slides, climbing structures, ADA swings and an upgraded playground covering. Rodriguez said the city expects to put the work out to bid \"probably July.\"

Rodriguez said the North End project at roughly 600 West 5100 South will add curbing, a sidewalk with ADA ramps, a marked crosswalk, traffic signage, a replacement fence, a retaining wall and landscaping to create a safer entrance and to keep pedestrians off the street.

During the hearing staff introduced Jake Mibus as the project manager for the CDBG application and identified Carlos Grama as the project manager for the Victory Park work. The hearing record included a staff statement that the North End street-accessibility project was awarded $116,807 of a total project cost listed as $189,930. The transcript record for the Victory Park award includes inconsistent numbers (the record states \"665,000 of the total project cost of $200,880\"), and staff did not clarify the apparent discrepancy during the hearing. The exact awarded amount and total cost for Victory Park were therefore not specified in the transcript.

Council members had no substantive questions at the hearing; one council member said she looked forward to the safety improvements at the North End. No public commenters spoke during the hearing.

The city said the CDBG contract award is expected to be finalized in July, after which construction procurement will proceed. No formal council vote on funding or contract award occurred during the May 20 meeting; the hearing was for public input and to document the city’s intent to proceed with the awarded projects.

Clarifying details and unresolved figures from the hearing are included below.","At a May 20 public hearing the Washington Terrace City Council heard staff explain two projects awarded under the 2025 Community Development Block Grant program: replacement of playground equipment at Victory Park and a street-accessibility/sidewalk project at the North End. Staff said contracts and bidding will follow pending final paperwork.","actionData","errors"]
