Sundance Institute Presentation (1:09:13 PM )

Ms. Sara Pearce, Sundance Institute, delivered a PowerPoint presentation regarding the economic impact of the Sundance Film Festival. The Sundance Institute is a non-profit organization whose mission is to discover, support, and inspire independent film and theater artists and to introduce them to audiences. The biggest way that is done is through the annual Sundance Film Festival.

In January 2015, 46,100 people attended the Sundance Film Festival. Sixty seven percent were from out of state, creating an economic impact of $83.4 million. Over 3,000 of those attendees, or about 11 percent, purchased lodging in Salt Lake County. The festival contributes $6.9 million directly to Utah state and local taxes. Over 50 Utah vendors are hired to assist in the festival, and 1,350 jobs are created. Eighty percent of attendees are college graduates, and 37 percent are under the age of 35. Of the over 30,000 non-resident visitors to the festival, almost 9,000 indicated this was their first trip to Utah. Over 15,000 of those visitors said they would visit Utah again during the next year. During the festival, 844 screenings are held at 16 different venues across 4 different cities – Park City, Salt Lake City, Ogden, and Sundance. Local residents have the opportunity to attend nine free screenings after the festival.

Press coverage for the festival is invaluable to promoting Utah. To turn the articles and coverage done by 1,130 journalists into advertising would amount to $66.7 million.

Committee of the WholeTuesday, July 14, 2015

Sundance Film Festivals are also held in London and Hong Kong, and the Utah Film Commission and representatives from the tourism industry travel to these locations to promote Utah. As a result, the Utah festival attracts 3,735 visitors from 30 different countries.

Sundance does a number of free programs throughout the year, of which Salt Lake County is very supportive. The County is holding an event prior to tomorrow night’s outdoor screening at Red Butte Gardens.

Council Member Wilson stated the community screenings are a good thing, and she hoped there would be consideration for additional opportunities.

Ms. Pearce stated the Red Butte screening will be the third one this summer. The other two screenings attracted 1,000 people each, so it is definitely something the community wants.

Community Preservation – Ballot Language (1:19:26 PM )

Ms. Kimberly Barnett, Associate Mayor, Mayor’s Office, updated the Council on the community preservation initiative. She stated kickoff meetings have been held with the consultant hired to provide a fiscal analysis for each of the townships, as well as the communication consultant. The Council has received tentative dates for town hall meetings in September. Once these dates are finalized, then the information will go out to the communities.

Mr. Gavin Anderson, Deputy District Attorney, stated the Council has completed the public hearing process as required by S.B. 199. The next step is to adopt a resolution that sets a special election and the procedures and processes for that special election. The resolution also includes the ballot language and the maps. The statute requires the resolution to be adopted at a public hearing, which the Council will hold at today’s 4:00 p.m. Council meeting.

At the last public hearing, two issues came up. One issue related to the parking lot at the Sons of Utah Pioneers’ building. Salt Lake City has agreed to have the parking lot remain within the Millcreek Township boundaries. The other issue related to the ballot language as it deals with the term “planning township,” and if this term was incorrect because for years townships have been referred to as just townships. The District Attorney’s Office provided a written opinion regarding this issue. In essence, the opinion states that it seems fairly clear from the statute that the term “planning township” is required as statutory language in the ballot question. At the close of the public hearing tonight, the Council will need to adopt the resolution to set the special election, adopt the ballot language, and set the boundaries as indicated on the maps.

Council Member Snelgrove stated the ballot language is as clear as the Council can get it, while still being in compliance with the statute.

Committee of the WholeTuesday, July 14, 2015

Mr. Anderson stated the limitation is based on the fact that the statute says the ballot language should be “substantially as follows” and then it includes the language. The District Attorney’s Office has interpreted that to mean: 1) fill in the blanks; and 2) any change that changes the substance of the question would be considered a substantial change. The Council can clarify the language with additional punctuation.

Council Member Newton stated she assumed the reason the word “planning” is included is to differentiate between the current township and the new metro township. The word township alone would be confusing as to what township it was referring to.

Mr. Anderson stated that is correct. He had a lengthy conversation with the drafter of the bill, who wanted a way to make sure it was clear that the old townships were now called planning townships and the new townships would be called metro townships. It would not be clear as to what township the language was referring to if it was just listed as township.

Council Member Bradshaw stated this change needs to be made clear during the education process.

Council Member Bradley asked what other opportunities the Council had to provide explanatory language relating to the ballot question.

Mr. Anderson stated the District Attorney’s Office is looking at the issue of a voter information pamphlet. It is unclear if a pamphlet is permitted, required, or prohibited. A decision has not yet been made. This election will be conducted by mail-in ballots, providing the voter an opportunity to do additional research before voting. There is no language in the statute about what can be included on the maps, so there is a lot of flexibility there. However, care needs to be taken not to include something that will prejudice the voter one way or the other. A phone number and website will be included on the maps, which will allow the voter to find answers to any question. Another option would be to include a glossary of terms about the ballot question on the back of each map.

Council Member Bradley stated it is important to provide as much clarity as possible.

Mr. Anderson stated a voter information pamphlet would be a great forum, on which the Council can spell out the most prejudice statement in favor of a metro township. Any one in opposition can send out a pamphlet as well. The issue with this forum would be the cost. The least expensive option would be for the County to just send out a postcard inviting voters to look at the website for answers to questions.

If the Council votes to allow the local option sales tax for transportation on the ballot, a voter information pamphlet might be required. This pamphlet would provide the Council the opportunity to combine the two issues into one document.

Council Member Jensen stated the heading on the maps could be changed to include the wording “formerly known as . . .” in parentheses under the heading.

Committee of the WholeTuesday, July 14, 2015

Mr. Anderson stated some of the proposed township boundaries have changed so much, they do not even come close to the current township boundaries. So it would be an inaccurate statement.

Council Member Jensen stated the average lay person would not know what the current boundaries are. The vast majority of the population needs to know that the County is required to include the word “planning” in the name of the township. The map needs to make some statement indicating this requirement.

Mr. Anderson stated the language on the ballot refers to the proposed metro township or city; it does not talk about the current township.

Council Member Bradley stated the average person who reads the ballot language will know what a city is, but not a township, which will be huge in terms of voting.

Council Member Wilson stated she would be in favor of mailing out a pamphlet. A pamphlet would help to clarify the issue. She asked if there was a disadvantage in providing a voter information pamphlet.

Ms. Barnett stated she did not think there was a disadvantage in educating the public. The next step would be to figure out the cost for a pamphlet. Producing a pamphlet and the cost to mail it was not included in the original budget adjustment.

Council Member Wilson asked if this information could be presented to the Council next week.

Council Member Bradley asked who has the editorial authority over the township newspapers. These newspapers could publish a sample ballot, and put in the language with the parentheses next to that to start educating the people that these are one in the same entities.

Ms. Barnett stated the County will be mailing out postcards to all the residents in these areas, so the Council can clarify the ballot language on these as well.

Council Member DeBry stated education is imperative; however, if the County piles on too much, it becomes convoluted and the voters will be confused.

Council Member Snelgrove stated the verbiage for the ballot is dream verbiage for the Utah League of Cities and Towns. Most voters will interpret the language that it is asking them to pick the name of the community in which they live. The voter will go with the name they feel is appropriate, not what they would otherwise decide.

Mr. Anderson stated the County did add quotation marks to the verbiage in hopes to further clarify the language. Those quotation marks can be eliminated.

Committee of the WholeTuesday, July 14, 2015

Ms. Barnett stated the next step would be to work on what that cost would be for a voter information guide and what it would look like, and then bring it back to the Council.

Council Member DeBry moved to request the Mayor’s Office to look into the cost and a proposal for a pamphlet or brochure explaining precisely and with clarity this issue, and to bring this information back to the Council next week for review.

Council Member Newton stated the community preservation communication team is already working on a mail piece to go out to every vote in the townships. She would recommend that the Council review this before it goes out to make sure it addresses the concerns expressed.

Council Member DeBry stated he was not aware of this mail piece and asked if this would address what the Council discussed today.

Ms. Barnett stated the mail piece has not been created yet, so the Mayor’s Office could certainly make sure it addresses that. The consultant is working on the design. The cost for this mail piece was part of the budget. It would not be ready for the Council to review next week.

Council Member Bradshaw stated he would caution the Council if it decided to just send out a postcard with a phone number and a web site, not all voters have access to a computer to obtain the extra information. What the County sends out needs to be as comprehensive as possible.

Ms. Dahnelle Burton-Lee, Chief Deputy Clerk, stated the postcard gives the voters the option of going to the website or calling a number. If a voter calls, then the information will be mailed to them. That way a ton of money will be saved and the County will still reach those voters who do not have the technology.

Council Member Snelgrove stated in order to get the message across and counteract the poor verbiage, a voter information guide is needed. The older demographics of the area will lower the usage of the internet.

Council Member DeBry, seconded by Council Member Newton, moved to request the Mayor’s Office to look into the cost and a proposal for a pamphlet or brochure explaining precisely and with clarity this issue, and to bring this information back to the Council next week for review. The motion passed unanimously.

The Future We Choose Overview Presentation (2:07:28 PM )

Ms. Nichole Dunn, Deputy Mayor, delivered a PowerPoint presentation regarding the Mayor’s Future We Choose initiative. She reviewed the mission statement,

5

Committee of the WholeTuesday, July 14, 2015

organizational chart, improvements to core functions, the Pay for Success program, collective impact, the Global Cities Initiative, outcomes, and tracking of the programs.

Council Member Snelgrove asked if the dashboard piece of this initiative was software, and if it was being developed in house or available in the marketplace.

Ms. Dunn stated the dashboard consists of two pieces. One part is data collection, and the County is partnering with the State on that at no cost. The second part is a graphical display for residents to see. Several different companies can do that so a Request for Proposal (RFP) will be required.

Council Member Snelgrove stated Congress has not funded the Export-Import Bank of the United States, which finances sales of U.S. exports to international buyers. Since the Global Cities Initiative deals mainly with exports, he asked if the Council should draft a resolution to the Utah congressional delegation to express its sentiments for the reauthorization of the bank. That directly affects manufacturers and exporters in Salt Lake County.

Mr. Carlton Christensen, Director, Office of Regional Development, stated most chambers of commerce and business groups have encouraged Utah’s congressional delegation to reauthorize the bank. A letter from the Council would also be beneficial.

Ms. Dunn stated she would be willing to facilitate the letter and bring back a draft for the Council’s review.

Council Member Newton stated she was very supportive of the dashboard project because of its transparency. She also appreciated the administration’s willingness to change things that are not working.

2015 Parks & Recreation Master Plan (2:26:34 PM )

Ms. Erin Litvack, Director, Community Services Department, stated the 2015 Parks & Recreation Master Plan is designed to guide the County in its decisions and priorities for regional parks and recreation amenities over the next ten years. Creating this plan has been a two-year process involving data collection, review of national parks and recreation standards, and input from the public and municipal and township partners.

Mr. Martin Jensen, Director, Parks & Recreation Division, delivered a PowerPoint presentation regarding the 2015 Master Plan. He reviewed the plan’s purpose, methodology, Countywide needs assessment, public and municipal feedback, major issues, and recommendations based on five distinct planning areas.

Council Member Bradshaw asked how many golf courses still had debt on them.

6

Committee of the WholeTuesday, July 14, 2015

Ms. Litvack stated the debt on Old Mill Golf Course will be retired in 2016, and South Mountain Golf Course will be retired in 2019.

Council Member DeBry stated South Jordan City and Riverton City have splash pads and they get a lot of use. This seems to be more advantageous to young families.

Mr. Jensen stated splash pads are cheaper to build and maintain, they are accessible to everyone, and use less water than pools.

Council Member Bradley asked if the splash pads would be in lieu of swimming lanes or if the plan tries to do both.

Mr. Jensen stated there are still plans for traditional indoor pools. The recommendation is not to build stand-alone outdoor pools. They are expensive to build and maintain, and they are only used about four months out of the year. However, they are looking at several new indoor pools. They are also studying the feasibility of covering some outdoor pools to extend the usage time of them.

Ms. Litvack stated there are opportunities to design and build pools with an indoor/outdoor flavor.

Council Member DeBry asked what a rowing facility was.

Mr. Jensen stated it is a row house or clubhouse for rowers. It is a location for staging, training, and storing of boats.

Council Member Newton asked if there was consideration for off leash dog parks when building new parks.

Mr. Jensen stated that is part of every discussion.

Council Member DeBry stated he enjoyed seeing these projections, but it all takes a lot of money. He cautioned about the cost of maintaining these properties, not just the budget to build. The County should be sure it has money in the coffers to maintain any new facility.

Council Member Newton stated if the increase in Local Option Sales Tax is put on the ballot and passes, it can fund active transportation trails. That could be another opportunity to increase trails within the County.

Ms. Litvack stated Parks & Recreation was working with the Office of Regional Development and the Office of Township Services to look at the active transportation networks. When looking at regional trails, it is important to tie them into other assets that may be road-based versus off road-based. They are looking closely at the network holistically to try to meet those needs.

Committee of the WholeTuesday, July 14, 2015

Council Member Snelgrove stated wherever practical, fruit trees should be planted. The Council has discussed the concept of urban orchards, and there would be no shortage of people to help with the harvest.

Ms. Litvack stated based on conversations during the 2015 budget process, the concept of urban orchards is being researched and will be brought back to the Council to see how the County could move forward with them.

Council Member Bradley stated the Council has discussed banking land for future use, such as for parks. Once land is purchased, and before it is developed into parks, it could be used as part of an urban agriculture program.

Mr. Jensen stated the County currently has some great partnerships in urban agriculture and is always looking for ways to expand.

Council Member Snelgrove stated Salt Lake City is closing two golf courses so it will be interesting to see how that impacts the usage at County-owned golf courses.

Mr. Jensen stated he is looking to finalize the Master Plan very soon, and asked the Council to get back to him with any feedback or questions. The plan is a foundation for the ZAP 3 process.

Update on the Olympic Oval Campus (3:12:45 PM )

Mr. Patrick Leary, Township Executive, Office of Township Services, stated representatives from the Utah Olympic Legacy Foundation, U.S. Speed Skating, Oquirrh Recreation and Parks District, and the County has been discussing the need to build a facility connecting the recreation center to the Olympic Oval. The building could be constructed in such a way to meet the needs of all the agencies. Resources were pulled together and an architecture was hired to begin designing what this building might look like.

Mr. Colin Hilton, Utah Olympic Legacy Foundation, stated this concept is a collaboration of multiple partners who all have need for additional space at this campus. Oquirrh Recreation and Parks District would like to expand the fitness areas and meeting space. The U.S. Olympic Legacy Foundation would like to provide more sports medicine and sports performance spaces. Instead of just connecting the two buildings, it was decided to use the connection concept to expand the building to provide the additional space.

Representative Eric Hutchings was able to procure a $3 million commitment in funding from the State of Utah towards a roughly $10 million total cost of the project. This group is now talking with all the governance entities to update them on what has been done and to receive input before it starts to pull together the necessary funding to construct the building.

Committee of the WholeTuesday, July 14, 2015

Mr. Brent Sheets, Executive Director, Oquirrh Recreation and Parks District, stated it has always been the plan to connect the Kearns Oquirrh Park Fitness Center and the Utah Olympic Oval. It makes sense to connect these two entities and pull resources. Currently, there is duplication of services in operations, administration, and maintenance. This plan will minimize the duplication of those services. There is a need for additional space at the fitness center and this will provide the needed space.

Mr. Jeff Monson, Chair, Board of Trustees, Oquirrh Recreation and Parks District, stated he is excited about this partnership. Kearns Oquirrh Fitness Center and the Olympic Oval are great facilities, and to be able to combine those two to help with the economy of scale and other budgetary challenges will provide a great partnership. There will be benefits to the community, residents, members of the oval and fitness center, and to the athletes. This proposal is a win/win for everyone involved.

Mayor Ben McAdams stated the Olympic Oval is a wonderful asset to the people in Kearns. More than one million people visit these facilities in a year, which is more than visit Lagoon. The County needs to leverage the great things that are already happening and make it better by bringing more amenities to the area where people can shop, recreate, and go out to dinner with their families, which would bring more jobs to the area. The County is currently working on the Kearns based initiative and has discovered there are only 600 jobs available in Kearns, and that Kearns has the longest commute time of anywhere in the Salt Lake Valley and the worst access to public transit. So by bringing jobs to Kearns, it will not only help with the tax base, but it also means people will be able to have more time with families, and more discretionary income because they will not be driving the longest commute to get to work. His Office supports this proposal because it provides multiple wins for the people in Kearns and throughout the region.

Mr. Ted Morris, Executive Director, U.S. Speed Skating Association, stated to bring things into perceptive, the Olympic Oval in Kearns was built for $30 million, the Olympic Oval in Vancouver was built for $300 million and is no longer an operating oval. The Olympic Oval in Kearns still has the fastest ice in the world. It is a great training venue for the athletes. However, so much of sport now is not what happens in the field of play, but what happens in preparing to get on the field of play, and that is where the facility falls a little short. The facility does not have the strength and conditioning area and the rehabiltation and recovery facilities that a lot of competitors around the world do. That is what this plan really changes. The proposal is to build a two-story strength and conditioning area for athletes to train, a nutritional center to feed athletes and to teach them how to cook their own meals, a rehabiltation facility, a recovery center, and a U.S. Speed Skating Hall of Fame.

Mr. Hilton stated this proposal will also provide space for the U.S. Olympic Committee to have a sports medicine group come in to help not only skaters, but other winter and summer athletes.

Council Member Wilson stated she is more than 100 percent behind this proposal. It will change the face of the community and turn it into a new place. The County needs to look into additional ways to leverage this facility by looking at transportation,

Committee of the WholeTuesday, July 14, 2015

restaurants, and a hotel. The County needs to work with Representative Hutchings to get additional State support.

Council Member Jensen stated this area is considered the image of Kearns. It is what shapes Kearns, and it is the core of Kearns, so whatever the County can do to help, he would be supportive of.

Waiver of Residential Parking Fees at Grandeur Peak Open Space Trail Head (3:43:58 PM )

The Council reviewed the request by residents living near the Grandeur Peak Trailhead in Millcreek Township for residential-only parking on Warr Road, Cascade Circle, and a portion of Cascade Way.

Mr. Patrick Leary, Township Executive, Office of Township Services, stated Salt Lake County ordinance provides for the County Council to “establish designated areas within the unincorporated area that are set aside as areas wherein on-street parking is permitted only of vehicles owned or controlled by residents living within the designated areas” Although this ordinance was adopted in 2006, this is the first petition the County has received requesting the creation of a residential parking area. The request is to designate the area on a trial basis for one year to allow time to gather data prior to permanently adopting such a request, and to waive the $10 permit fee for residents during this time. A consultant will be retained to conduct a thorough study of the area and to provide recommendations for implementation.

Council Member DeBry, seconded by Council Member Granato, moved to approve the pilot program, waive the $10 parking permit fee for one year, retain a consultant to conduct a study and provide recommendations, and to forward this request to the 4:00 p.m. Council meeting for formal consideration. The motion passed unanimously.

District Attorney’s Office ~ Management of Salt Lake City’s Prosecutor Responsibilities (3:46:38 PM )

The Council reviewed the following resolution and interlocal agreement. The resolution authorizing execution of the agreement has been placed on the Council agenda for final approval and execution:

Salt Lake City regarding management of prosecutor responsibilities.

Mayor Ben McAdams stated this proposed collaboration with Salt Lake City relates to the overlap of prosecutor responsibilities. This collaboration is not only good for the taxpayer, but it will strengthen the County’s ability to effectively prosecute crimes and move people through the criminal justice system.

10

Committee of the WholeTuesday, July 14, 2015

Mr. Sim Gill, District Attorney, stated this is a win-win situation. It brings efficiencies, economy of scale, and helps with the reform of the criminal justice system. This collaboration provides opportunities to execute the Criminal Justice Master Plan.

Council Member Bradshaw, seconded by Council Member Granato, moved to approve the resolution and forward it to the 4:00 p.m. Council meeting for formal consideration. The motion passed unanimously.
