At the public comment period, Chad Kidder said residents are worried a roundabout on Center Street would not reduce risk to schoolchildren unless pedestrian crossings are moved away from the roundabout; he asked the city to do outreach, especially with the two charter schools he named (Reagan and Merritt), to build buy-in and to avoid traffic backups onto 1200 West during school drop-off and pick-up.

Kidder also asked the city to address sediment and plant overgrowth in the Artwing Park pond, saying cattails now cover roughly one-third to one-half of the pond and that, at the current rate, there may be no pond within a year.

City staff responded during the meeting. A staff member said the public works director and the city engineer had heard the concerns and that staff will contact neighborhoods as major projects are prepared; outreach tools listed included website notices, door hangers and mailers. Council and staff emphasized they will follow the city’s outreach policy, which includes multiple notification methods, and invited Kidder to speak with staff after the meeting for follow-up.

No formal action was taken during the meeting; staff indicated follow-up outreach and maintenance evaluation would occur.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Springville City Council Meeting/ Planning Commission","oneSentenceSummary","A resident told council neighborhood outreach is needed for a planned roundabout on Center Street near two charter schools and asked the city to dredge Artwing Park’s pond, which residents say is overgrown.","taxTitle","Springville City Council, Springville, Utah County, Utah","taxId",67731,"location","Utah","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6530543,"Council approves land purchases to preserve 2600 West corridor in Lakeside Landing",436,2740000,3176000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3650809-c89b9b5d9d1e03171e3d7b59c1d3c149&start=2740&end=3176","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3650809-c89b9b5d9d1e03171e3d7b59c1d3c149/thumbnail_2740000.jpg","/articles/6530543/Utah/Council-approves-land-purchases-to-preserve-2600-West-corridor-in-Lakeside-Landing","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6530543-03167765e3ddc77445535e7ce9c3dff4/orig.mp4?Expires=1770716561&Signature=d10aEDd9x63ZlWqO4AttydIY5~V9HXxc6fAAi1-CKXfxETJniZKUMRrzfPlRunVQRnmMZIgvstcGJUu8xMb26dkylFhWeCKGjTYzM4HHaYPiSOoqyY0CFziU49HawzNk5~6Zol3I5wDmlg8DMirozM1YRLujpQrPp3VT3HhHiP3GxulGEnLlsdk0fhybBfnRXRQ7Fx1Lk7gMWesggQar8ooX5vwzgWaypQzc1lAjlV6FyczN6NATgo9-WkPtB3Z8snYfu6HacX-BRh0kZpfgV3W8RmZwRUWEzMEum--pPKJ8pE-YhutqVQoAqBH2VKfom9Zg9NNFhrO5WFgL8PWeng__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Springville City Council voted to approve Resolution No. 2025-20, authorizing the city to purchase multiple properties to preserve right-of-way for the planned 2600 West arterial through the Lakeside Landing development.

Why it matters: preserving right-of-way now secures a future five-lane arterial alignment that regional planners identified as necessary for connectivity and future development. Using MAG (Mountainland Association of Governments) preservation funds means the city will be reimbursed for approved acquisition costs.

City engineer Chris Wilson explained that Mountainland Association of Governments has identified 2600 West as a regionally significant corridor and is providing right-of-way preservation funds. The city is proposing to use MAG funds to secure five parcels and associated construction and permanent easements; MAG will reimburse the city for appraised property values and approved closing costs (MAG approved $1,000 toward closing costs). Wilson said MAG-approved reimbursement generally takes about 45 days once the city shows proof of purchase.

Staff said MAG will reimburse for back-of-curb-to-back-of-curb acquisition and approved appraisal costs; some additional dedication and easements will be required later from developers when roadway construction occurs. Non-reimbursable items include rollback agricultural taxes; staff said the city has budgeted funds for those potential costs. The proposed acquisitions are intended to connect an existing built section near 550 North down to 400 South as part of the larger 2600 West corridor.

Council member motioned to approve Resolution No. 2025-20; the motion passed on roll call. During the roll call, council members recorded yes votes from Council member Smith, Council member Jansen (spelled Jansen in the roll call), Council member Millsap and Mayor pro tem Snelson. The resolution authorizes staff to finalize purchases and seek MAG reimbursement for approved costs.

The vote allows the city to proceed with the property transactions to preserve the corridor and to use MAG reimbursement to cover appraised values and certain closing costs. Staff noted that that right-of-way preservation does not construct the roadway now but secures the corridor for future construction tied to regional planning and development.","Springville Council voted to authorize purchases of five properties to preserve right-of-way for the future 2600 West arterial in the Lakeside Landing area, using MAG preservation funds that will reimburse the city.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6530548,"Council adopts year-end budget amendments to record donations, ambulance write-offs and park grants",529,2175000,2704000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3650809-c89b9b5d9d1e03171e3d7b59c1d3c149&start=2175&end=2704","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3650809-c89b9b5d9d1e03171e3d7b59c1d3c149/thumbnail_2175000.jpg","/articles/6530548/Utah/Council-adopts-year-end-budget-amendments-to-record-donations-ambulance-write-offs-and-park-grants","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6530548-d20163610937c296af0f8fe081de0b81/orig.mp4?Expires=1770716561&Signature=GsMKGmDBbjxNxG69UeI3CIZPFfV45PoHrUyYcdr8k8Hxw-Wq0lWhu41i7XUQvQHFoohjhqYsY3yAd~ObeYXH4qJJZeDpjTbZZoKVTtIqxHL1Y0kjIGdkb~3Sm6Kscz-ZVu1ycXR6my~dhNJ9LPc8p8jyTB7bgWAz-wjySIls-YEkCr8HvL1k1171T0BWKFMtrCckj8QSdO9BdA9Fna6ohlwWgF6yBb9guuY3s5hcqX09FnRtU6lOtsE8s4SB~Pjy29rQ-prfJtj~i2fGZCmeIiNPOWzHG~50FkJU6wlhNIcrTYfPMsPOvSOpYmhyxEUb7DA7P9atG8gTbX8mFk5SLw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Springville City Council approved a resolution to amend multiple city budgets for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, to account for unbudgeted donations, grant awards and accounting adjustments.

The amendment, Resolution No. 2025-19, was presented by city staff and passed by roll call after a public hearing with no commenters. The changes include appropriating community donations for the police K-9 program, recognizing ambulance revenue and associated bad-debt expense after a vendor change, and adding several parks and library grants to the capital and special revenue funds.

Why it matters: the amendments formally record and authorize city spending tied to donations, grants and accounting adjustments that occurred late in the fiscal year so staff can complete projects and reconcile revenues and expenses before the year closes.

City staff summarized the items included in the amendment. The police department will appropriate $7,000 in donations immediately for its K-9 program and place an additional $13,000 into the police sinking fund for future K-9 programming. An accounting change tied to a switch in ambulance billing vendors required the city to recognize $295,000 in bad-debt expense with an offsetting increase in ambulance revenue to reflect write-offs during the vendor transition. The library will record a $5,000 community programming grant from Intermountain Healthcare, programming $1,500 in the current year and moving the $3,500 balance into a sinking fund for next year’s programs.

Parks and capital projects were adjusted to reflect philanthropic gifts: the city will appropriate a $1,000,000 donation from McWane Ductile to improvements at the Arts Park; $16,000 in donations for additional improvements at Memorial Park; and a $140,000 “Jazz” grant for a sports court project in Memorial Park. Staff also noted routine technical adjustments to move received donations into the proper funds and to recognize reimbursable items already approved by external partners.

During presentation, staff emphasized that some donor funds are intended for specific programs but become city funds once accepted; staff said they generally try to honor donor intent. The public hearing on the amendment was opened and closed with no public comment, and council then voted to adopt Resolution No. 2025-19.

The council’s action authorizes staff to spend the recorded donations and grants and to close out the current fiscal year with the adjusted budget. Staff noted they will use existing budgeted funds to cover any non-reimbursable items, such as potential rollback agricultural property taxes tied to some future right-of-way purchases discussed elsewhere on the agenda.

Council members who recorded affirmative votes during the roll call included Council member Millsap, Council member Jensen and Council member Smith; the presiding mayor pro tem also indicated a yes vote. The resolution passed.","Springville City Council approved Resolution No. 2025-19 to amend the current fiscal year budgets, appropriating donated funds for police and parks programs, recognizing ambulance billing adjustments and adding several grant-funded projects.","actionData","errors"]
