Mayor’s assistant Camille Palmer presented the Council with TAP tax applications for cycle one. Palmer said applicants requested $154,282 in total and staff recommended awarding $100,452, funded from TAP revenue collected over the prior six months. Palmer also advised that one application should not be considered that night because the applicant had a pending request to Wasatch County.
Council discussion noted the Midway Boosters had other funds and queried why they requested additional support for stained glass windows; some donated materials were reported. The Council voted to approve the TAP awards as presented. The minutes record Aye votes for Council Members Andy Garland, Lisa Orme, Andrew Osborne, Kevin Payne and JC Simonsen. The Wasatch Trails Foundation requested $60,000 but staff recommended $20,000.
