Summary

The town reviewed the state‑mandated Sex‑Based Privacy Compliance Plan; Councilmember Artie Powell noted a clerical error and, questioning whether adoption was required given existing facilities, the council voted to table Resolution 2024‑08‑15 pending input from the town attorney.

The council reviewed a state‑mandated Sex‑Based Privacy Compliance Plan required by Utah Code §63G‑31 and the associated Resolution 2024‑08‑15.

Councilmember Artie Powell pointed out a clerical wording issue in the draft and questioned whether formal local adoption was necessary because the town already has gender‑neutral restrooms in the park and the new town hall. After discussion, the council voted to table the resolution and asked Town Attorney William Morris to clarify the town’s obligations under the statute before bringing the item back for action.

Tabling preserves the council’s ability to revise the draft and ensures legal sign‑off before the town formally adopts the mandated plan or makes facility changes.
