Tiffany, representing the South Salt Lake Police Department, asked the council to appropriate 10 bikes for donation. Council member Clarissa moved approval and Corey seconded; the motion passed on roll call.

Separately, Aretha, the police department records supervisor, presented proposed amendments to police fees for records and GRAMA requests. Aretha told the council the department seeks to update fees to account for the complexity of handling video and audio requests and to better reflect time and redaction costs. She said the department is proposing tiered fees for video requests instead of a flat fee: up to 30 minutes, $45; 30–60 minutes, $55; and $10 for each additional 30 minutes. Aretha said requests for video footage are common — \"daily, I would say we get at least maybe 10 to 15 requests daily,\" she said — and that redaction can be time consuming.

Council members agreed to move the fee changes to the next regular meeting for further consideration; Council member Ray DeWolf made the motion to continue the item and Sharla seconded.

Why it matters: the approved donation repurposes unclaimed property for a youth program. The proposed fee changes, if adopted, would raise costs for some public and attorney requests and are intended to recover staff time spent reviewing, redacting and delivering audio/video records.

Details: the police department requested appropriation of 10 bicycles to donate to Free Bikes for Kids. The records‑fee proposal would revise the current flat video fee and add incremental charges tied to video length and staff time. The council moved the records‑fee proposal to a future meeting for more review.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","2025 7 9 City Council Regular Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","The South Salt Lake City Council approved a resolution allowing police to dispose of unclaimed property by donating 10 bicycles to Free Bikes for Kids and moved proposed changes to police records fees and video‑redaction charges to a future meeting after staff presentation.","taxTitle","South Salt Lake , Salt Lake County, Utah","taxId",7398,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6709596,"FlashVote results show South Salt Lake residents support daytime watering restrictions and tiered rates",673,851000,1524000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5356082-44d80db3b09aef303db3f5ca5e84f79d&start=851&end=1524","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5356082-44d80db3b09aef303db3f5ca5e84f79d/thumbnail_851000.jpg","/articles/6709596/South-Salt-Lake/Salt-Lake-County/Utah/FlashVote-results-show-South-Salt-Lake-residents-support-daytime-watering-restrictions-and-tiered-rates","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6709596-e62b723f4238153e0a04fcdf73d572fa/orig.mp4?Expires=1771202300&Signature=WaYrBs~jkwg3Z75Jibbn2dAgvEmRq-GX-VqEwsOX3XfP2LaT3IHZzm8tD-WpGGucLAmUPqMaMsQ-GCh~Drhj72sfrBPMDgY~TOld0sJczALT1UURLwwPbWQngyz6717LsG-4j5dgs3mQ4Xm2Fe~p02K4qaBWskir4jL3oDQMpwgEvHJPEHWDrL8C8X7ZNYnOht4kERmixMMXH3hP4GOVN~ZSNcpke-RPuXAm6XG5F90W3KePPHint0lXYlfvenDZhOIwu3wlNF4IeC2NoyRw~NTqw6JINWQDM4GDgL-xTj3z~0-8H20dt4oQaf6vwYj3Q2jWqEAYqJcijZ8Ot49gWA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","South Salt Lake officials presented the results of a FlashVote survey on water conservation to the city council on July 9, saying the survey found majority support for the council’s daytime outdoor watering restriction and for tiered water pricing that charges higher users more.

Joseph Dane, of the city’s communications and public outreach team, told the council the survey had 192 respondents and was designed to be a brief representative sample. He summarized the key takeaways: many respondents reported concern about water availability, the majority supported the city’s daytime watering restriction (10 a.m. to 6 p.m.), and 74% of respondents said excessive water users should pay more. Dane said about one‑third of respondents (33%) were not familiar with state‑funded rebate programs such as Utah WaterSavers and recommended more education about those programs.

\"In total, we had 192 participants that responded in the survey,\" Joseph Dane said. \"The majority of residents are actively trying to do their part to conserve water in some fashion. The majority of residents are in support of some sort of tiered water structure that really makes higher users pay more.\"

Dane noted South Salt Lake’s water‑service landscape is a patchwork: some residents receive water from the South Salt Lake Water Utility, others from Jordan Valley or Salt Lake City, but the council’s conservation ordinances apply to residents regardless of supplier. He also reminded the council that the daytime watering restriction was adopted last year and was a condition tied to eligibility for a landscape incentive rebate administered by Jordan Valley.

Dane said staff have been distributing educational materials and door hangers; code enforcement handles most complaints through education rather than civil enforcement. Council members asked whether programs exist for apartments and multi‑family properties; Dane said some requirements fall to new‑development standards and noted that indoor conservation measures (toilet retrofits, leak checks) are relevant for multi‑family units as well.

Why it matters: residents’ support for restrictions and tiered pricing provides political cover for continued conservation outreach and potential rate design changes. The city will need to continue public education on rebate programs and coordinate with Jordan Valley for implementation.

Details from the presentation: 192 participants; 46% said they were very or extremely concerned about water; 74% supported charging higher water rates to excessive users; about 33% were unfamiliar with rebate programs. Staff reported targeted education efforts, landscape‑incentive changes that reward water‑efficient yards, and an online form to report water waste.","A city‑commissioned FlashVote survey of 192 participants found strong resident support for daytime outdoor watering restrictions and for charging higher rates to excessive water users; the communications team recommended more outreach about available rebate programs.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6709599,"South Salt Lake council adopts Housing and Transit overlay district; related items moved to later meeting",191,1637000,1828000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5356082-44d80db3b09aef303db3f5ca5e84f79d&start=1637&end=1828","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5356082-44d80db3b09aef303db3f5ca5e84f79d/thumbnail_1637000.jpg","/articles/6709599/South-Salt-Lake/Salt-Lake-County/Utah/South-Salt-Lake-council-adopts-Housing-and-Transit-overlay-district-related-items-moved-to-later-meeting","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6709599-ea4971a2595809aa77a2019c082c34d9/orig.mp4?Expires=1771202300&Signature=TpWXKGEKtOSilqPtj8MEJWJZULaVLHXEkprv74BWui012UBNr92OACkj-TWUuLyBInLTRmr8IP3R6D8LgbQ8meTnQ0rQJ8i8ouMy4vviOR7thWx0X9ttJcRwUt1hEz7PVSruDMij2GlAC-nonUjkAdH5jAVlAXK8Py799g0zKf99QXll4j2vuubKc7rDKxmD2vFBH4svNWaxuCtTjVwSwV5nUJFtW98RQxUke2K0dAFJvVTDh0LG4FVS--uwmp0et90nVSH1qA9UnVToSeOZb16T0nKtj2KLsWQXvLD8ceG3Iepn3YoguXpF~h5we8J8bevxbuS0PSJHgs829a3yMA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The South Salt Lake City Council on July 9 approved an ordinance creating a new Housing and Transit (HT) overlay district intended to encourage mixed‑use redevelopment in the downtown area.

The ordinance enacts Section 17.03.185 of the South Salt Lake Municipal Code and amends several sections across Title 17 to implement the new overlay. Spencer Cawley, senior planner, told the council the overlay will allow developers to petition for rezoning if projects meet minimum standards, including a minimum site size of 5 acres, a minimum density of 50 units per acre and a minimum average building height of 50 feet. Developers seeking the overlay must enter into a development agreement with the city, Cawley said, and the example driving the proposal was the Marcus Center project near the S‑Line stop.

\"The item for action this evening is enacting the housing and transit overlay district. This is a district that will assist in the redevelopment of downtown,\" Spencer Cawley, senior planner, said during the meeting.

Council member Ray DeWolf made the motion to approve the ordinance; Clarissa seconded. The council proceeded to a roll call and the motion passed.

Council members also moved two separate unfinished‑business items (listed on the agenda as items 2 and 3) to the council's next regularly scheduled meeting. The council acted on item 1 (the HT overlay) and separately voted to continue items 2 and 3 so that those measures could be revisited at a later date.

Why it matters: the HT overlay creates a formal pathway for denser, transit‑oriented redevelopment downtown by setting minimum scale and density thresholds and by allowing flexibility through development agreements. The overlay’s requirements and the development‑agreement process will be relevant to property owners, developers and residents near downtown.

What the ordinance contains: the new overlay sets quantitative thresholds (5 acres, 50 units/acre, average 50‑foot height) that properties must meet to petition for rezoning to the HT overlay. The ordinance also includes broader amendments across multiple chapters of the zoning code to align permitted uses and development standards with the overlay.

Next steps and context: council members tabled two related agenda items to the next regular meeting for further consideration; the council’s motion to adopt the HT overlay was immediately followed by a motion to continue the separate items.

Votes at a glance: the motion to adopt the HT overlay ordinance was made by Council member Ray DeWolf and seconded by Clarissa. The motion passed on roll call.

Community members and developers interested in petitioning for the overlay will need to satisfy the ordinance’s size, density and building‑height thresholds and negotiate a development agreement with the city.","The South Salt Lake City Council voted to enact a new Housing and Transit (HT) overlay district to encourage denser, mixed‑use redevelopment in downtown and tabled two related unfinished-business items to a future meeting.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6709583,"Granite Library lists summer programs, insurance help and pickling demo",114,492000,606000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5356082-44d80db3b09aef303db3f5ca5e84f79d&start=492&end=606","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5356082-44d80db3b09aef303db3f5ca5e84f79d/thumbnail_492000.jpg","/articles/6709583/South-Salt-Lake/Salt-Lake-County/Utah/Granite-Library-lists-summer-programs-insurance-help-and-pickling-demo","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6709583-76b0dab5409e79cf78e1ef396b6c5fe5/orig.mp4?Expires=1771202300&Signature=W-QyPlg3H2VccZLOJapOiqaEvIj5-OidBMPkVlUzDx26-~J-9Ttgw2DGxM4zACTOyH3r7Hnh4JOOMaMwWUuTCcgZqiFphvXDx4S2IfdYofCx9spXW7I3mvzFXZMFaznkDgNl-zP0lg1Gu3fIXFcvJLo-XKdwXCO48dYZeoZKqm5W-mylLnpgKkwvLET-k87mvw6Gu4T05rtWPcO52xFtkqTbcLW83KDSKl9AcOAxCenIpfcnVk3q8AYYW52K7ZqGjQnYT0IsHbB2HsRupYYd4WvkMaJMxBdGtSEoVTAfKE76XaifVzO1tl2oEav2iaf5OC6PnYL-YpqCXx--r~l0NQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Kim Welch, representing Granite Library, gave the council a rundown of summer programming and outreach the library is offering for July and August.

Welch said the library is running \"Little Artists\" story time on Wednesday mornings at 10:30 through the rest of July, with different picture books and art mediums featured by the librarian Amanda. She said a Maker Monday session is scheduled for the Monday following July 20 (presented by staff as \"the following Monday on the 20 first\") offering a chance for children to use the library's Create Space to make buttons and metal bookmarks via sublimation printing.

Welch also said Take Care Utah will be at the library on Friday, August 1 from 2 to 5 p.m. to offer free help accessing and applying for insurance programs including Medicaid, CHIP, ACA and Medicare. The library will host a summer pickling cooking demonstration on Wednesday, August 6 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., Welch said.

\"If you are gardening and you've got an abundance of produce and you wanna learn a fun new way or maybe a different way to preserve it, we're going to have a summer pickling cooking demonstration,\" Kim Welch said.

Why it matters: the library's programs provide free family and civic resources over the summer months, including help signing up for health insurance and free programming for children and gardeners.

How to learn more: Kim Welch invited council members and residents to contact the library for details and noted that staff are available for collaboration with the city on community programs.","A Granite Library representative briefed the council on summer story times, a Maker Monday program, Take Care Utah insurance assistance on Aug. 1 and a pickling demonstration on Aug. 6.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6709588,"Resident urges council to reinstate moment of reflection and clarify police interactions with ICE",236,165000,401000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5356082-44d80db3b09aef303db3f5ca5e84f79d&start=165&end=401","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5356082-44d80db3b09aef303db3f5ca5e84f79d/thumbnail_165000.jpg","/articles/6709588/South-Salt-Lake/Salt-Lake-County/Utah/Resident-urges-council-to-reinstate-moment-of-reflection-and-clarify-police-interactions-with-ICE","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6709588-69242f717526c2773012570770618cd7/orig.mp4?Expires=1771202300&Signature=nq8OE3Laz8Pfx~R4Ul7WV1GFqYwhvqQ1KxVBcSzWVkqmd55f0gzx9v30~YQGO5Sv9JfLcGe8-NQe1h1kBR3jdTp4ozUmfOXvtMYg8aeEosiZgTy9cdUYwXqUOst5xE4dAZpK2naxbb4Gu5Oi2gPWZVFnjshyRhvCX-sw7u8~4bocp4jD0fGe5pUk5GCYR6DkS8MClcgJUeCGHM0gM2ywBL5S4RJOzb~VoIrd0bKNjwMG-vH-64fDTsF07PFaUNSmC3G3ecldco4idUBxgBYo9THxTh2cgetnABkUzZcvlWKwNOSKCbEBIDAWXXZVPaCTDocO27JEc3JPcLV-PP1dOw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","During the public‑comment period on July 9, resident Susan Bridal urged council members to reinstate a short \"moment of reflection\" at city council meetings, alternating topics between local refugee safety and how the police department handles interactions with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

\"Will you please reinstate the moment of reflection we used to have at each meeting with a new focus? I'd like to hear about one of these two topics each meeting,\" Susan Bridal said. She described community concern about refugee safety and requested clearer information from the city about police interactions with ICE after a misunderstanding discussed at a recent town hall.

Bridal also described a signage idea she learned about from a group she identified as \"Workers Over Billionaires\" (also referenced as Organized Power in Numbers), saying the signage—placed on employee‑only break rooms—was described in a training video as a way businesses can prevent ICE entry without a judicial warrant. She said she would attend a training and pass materials to city staff.

City staff reminded Bridal her time had expired and accepted the printed materials she offered.

Why it matters: the request asks the council to add a regular, brief agenda item focused on community safety and transparency around police interactions with federal immigration agents. The signage proposal was presented as an informational idea rather than a city policy proposal; Bridal said she will pursue trainings and share materials with staff.

Details from public comment: Bridal praised a recent town hall at Granite Library for discussion about refugees, asked for updates on police‑ICE interactions and offered to share sample signage and training information from Workers Over Billionaires / Organized Power in Numbers.","A resident asked the South Salt Lake City Council to reinstate a brief moment of reflection at meetings focused alternately on refugee safety and police‑ICE interactions, and proposed a business signage idea to protect employees from immigration enforcement without a judicial warrant.","actionData","errors"]
