What else? 00:00:03
Yoga class. 00:00:04
It's basically covering our costs. 00:00:06
Book club would be kind of more of a social event, so it would include like a dinner. 00:00:09
As well included with it. So hopefully that answers all of your questions. But yes, there was a lot of research put into this we. 00:00:15
Line items. 00:00:20
Each program and how it would run. 00:00:22
And happy to answer any other questions you have if any. 00:00:26
OK. Thank you. 00:00:30
Awesome. 00:00:32
Any other public comments on the fee schedule? 00:00:33
OK, great. 00:00:37
All righty, we are going to jump now to the tentative, the public hearing for the Tentative 20262727 fiscal year budget. 00:00:38
We probably should go. Robin was just. 00:00:46
Should we go vote to go into this? 00:00:48
OK. All right. 00:00:51
I'm. 00:00:52
OK. Can I entertain a motion to enter into the public hearing for the tentative? 00:00:54
Budget. Umm. 00:00:58
So moved. 00:00:59
Do I have a second second. 00:01:00
All in favor. 00:01:01
Aye, aye. 00:01:02
Motion passes. OK, let's jump to Evan. Would you like to walk us through your presentation at this time? Just kind of. 00:01:05
Give it the high level. 00:01:11
And then? 00:01:12
Yeah, you bet. 00:01:13
Let me. 00:01:17
It's connected here real quick. 00:01:18
Is it the second one? We got it. 00:01:27
So this is the first draft of our tentative budget for the coming year. 00:01:40
Intended that this is finalized. Needs to be finalized by the end of June. 00:01:44
And I believe the 23rd of June is is when? 00:01:48
Intending to vote on that in that City Council. 00:01:52
So. 00:01:57
Want to walk through? 00:01:58
Each of the funds. 00:02:00
At a high level. 00:02:02
We'll go through each of the revenue areas for General Fund 1st and then expenses. 00:02:03
Most of these revenues we. 00:02:09
We forecast that are are increasing a bit. 00:02:11
There are a couple that we. 00:02:14
Have some downward pressure on the B&C roads because of the fuel tax. 00:02:17
Holiday that the. 00:02:22
The state is giving us. 00:02:23
As citizens for the first six months of. 00:02:25
Of this next fiscal year, we have that that, that revenue will decrease for us, for the city. 00:02:28
Building permits is down as well. 00:02:34
We've got 750,000 there for the coming year, whereas it was it was closer to 900,000 for this year. 00:02:37
But most everything else is. 00:02:43
Is popping up a little bit. 00:02:46
We still have good interest income and that is due to. 00:02:48
The grant that we have for the 1200 N Bridge. 00:02:53
That we haven't spent yet, and we'll spend. 00:02:56
Most of it in the coming year. 00:02:59
Sorry, the following year after this. 00:03:01
Can you turn up the? 00:03:05
Is that not loud enough? 00:03:06
We'll turn up the mic here. 00:03:07
Sorry I don't have a loud voice. 00:03:10
But I well. 00:03:13
Thanks, Robin. 00:03:14
My wife and kids would say otherwise. It's it's usually pretty. 00:03:15
You saw. Thank you for the feedback. 00:03:19
This is a. 00:03:25
Pie chart of all of our costs for the coming year. 00:03:26
Out of the general fund. 00:03:30
Largely, these percentages of the slice of pies haven't changed much from last year. 00:03:32
As you can see. 00:03:38
Public. 00:03:39
Public safety is our biggest expense. It's always been like that and. 00:03:41
And continues to be. 00:03:44
Been able to fund them. 00:03:47
Even better this coming year. 00:03:49
And the. 00:03:51
The majority of these other. 00:03:51
Apartments I've actually had a decrease. 00:03:53
For the coming year over what we budgeted for. 00:03:56
This current year. 00:03:59
So. 00:04:00
I'm trying to think if there's anything else. 00:04:04
Point out there. 00:04:07
But I don't want to click the slide. 00:04:10
Too quick as you. 00:04:12
Look through some of that. 00:04:14
The police. 00:04:17
There are a couple of things that are additive there and I should have brought my notes on that. 00:04:19
We have. 00:04:23
There are some additional cameras that they're adding or throughout the city. 00:04:25
And the name escapes me maybe. 00:04:30
Do you flock cameras? 00:04:32
And so we've got some. 00:04:35
I'm going to call them blind spots. You correct me, Sheriff, if I'm wrong. 00:04:37
And these will help to improve that. 00:04:40
Correct. 00:04:43
And there's also a rad. 00:04:45
Women program that we've. 00:04:47
Also added. 00:04:50
The fire department budget includes. 00:04:52
Three additional. 00:04:54
Fireman. 00:04:56
Fire. 00:04:57
Sorry. 00:04:58
And those are the big adds to the budget this year. 00:04:59
Capital projects. 00:05:06
This is our lengthy list. 00:05:08
I don't know if I want to walk through every one of these. 00:05:14
We've got. 00:05:17
Selected here so far there's 15,000 for a crosswalk there there's. 00:05:18
Some of these are smaller. 00:05:23
Dumpster enclosures that's rolled from the last year. 00:05:24
Design A. 00:05:29
Public safety master plan. 00:05:30
We're spending 60,000 on that. There's a. 00:05:33
A slide hill at Grove. 00:05:36
Park some of that. 00:05:37
A lot of that. 00:05:39
Has already been. 00:05:40
Bent actually, so we need to adjust that incoming versions. 00:05:41
What else do you want to highlight here? I want to highlight some of these. 00:05:47
Items that are coming in with a grant. 00:05:51
So I like the fish, so this one stood out to me. We've got a fish cleaning station that's coming in at Penny Springs Park for the 00:05:53
fishery that's. 00:05:57
Pending a grant from the Department of Natural Resources. 00:06:02
The sand volleyball court of the Bluffs area is also pending a grant. 00:06:06
Mountain bike park. 00:06:10
Pending a grant. 00:06:12
We've got 60,000 for constructing bike park improvements. 00:06:16
Shoreline improvements at 15,000. 00:06:20
I don't know what this is. 00:06:26
Flip the strip and all the tension basins and collector roads. 00:06:27
If somebody can chime in on that. 00:06:32
That comes from our. 00:06:34
Rhodes area. 00:06:37
Changing out from grass to. 00:06:42
Rocks, I'm sure. 00:06:45
Yeah. 00:06:46
All right. Some of the larger ones here, well, I'll just start at the top. We've got a. 00:06:49
A beach volleyball court at Lakefront Waterfront that. 00:06:54
That's also a grant rolled over from the prior year. 00:06:58
Construct structure habitat at Penny Springs. 00:07:02

Design and construct Utah Lake Shoreline Trail and bike station improvements. That's pending a grant. 00:07:15
Design and Construct Shoreline improvements. That's also a grant for 7000. 00:07:22
Now this is so we've got in here 500,000 to spend for designing the 1200 N overpass bridge. 00:07:28
This is where we had a grant for from 10 million. 00:07:35
Of $10 million from the state, we received that. 00:07:37
I don't know when, at least a year or two ago it was prior to me getting here and that's sitting in our account. 00:07:42
We've got. 00:07:47
Design spend on that this year. 00:07:48
And we've left the other 9.5 million. 00:07:51
Out to go in. 00:07:54
Next year's The following year's budget was when we'll. 00:07:55
That needs to be completed in 2028. 00:07:58
We've got a RAP tax allocation here of 20,000. 00:08:02
Arched Commission. 00:08:05
More bike park improvements. 00:08:08
The skate park is one that we've. 00:08:11
That was that's been. 00:08:14
Voted on. 00:08:16
Just in the last couple months, I guess. 00:08:18
But also pending a grant. 00:08:20
Those monies are coming the. 00:08:22
Wrap tax will cover the. 00:08:25
The piece that's not related to a grant. 00:08:27
Traffic signals are going in there 600 N main. 00:08:30
Right or north of Mill? 00:08:34
Significant expenditure there. 00:08:37
Parking implement restriping in streets and design for 50,000. 00:08:39
Pedestrian ramp updates. 00:08:43
Main Street and Center St. 75,000. 00:08:46
400 S roadway cost additional there's transport. 00:08:50
That's coming from transportation impact fees $100,000. 00:08:53
And these concrete aprons around hydrants? 00:08:58
Water fees. 00:09:01
60,000. 00:09:02
The next slide. All of these relate to. 00:09:04
The RDA. 00:09:08
And. 00:09:09
And I got one of them wrong. So I'm looking back at my next this first one that says it's 1.5 million. 00:09:12
They construct water line loop is actually. 00:09:18
Pushed out a couple of years. That's slated for fiscal year 28. 00:09:21
2029. 00:09:25
But this 1.5 million is. 00:09:27
For the Bend St. connection. 00:09:30
Reimbursement to flagship. 00:09:33
We've got 200,000. 00:09:37
To delineate. 00:09:38
Delineate. 00:09:39
Vineyard Wetlands. 00:09:40
There's 35,000 for developing as. 00:09:44
A strategic economic plan. 00:09:47
Beach improvements. 00:09:49
We've got. 00:09:52
Part of it's a grant. 00:09:54
3.372 million. 00:09:57
Design and construct restrooms and parking at the skate park. 00:10:01
I think that one isn't the RDA. 00:10:06
Sorry, I need to revise that that. 00:10:10
Does not have anything to do with the RDA. 00:10:12
The design Design. The rail spur realignment. 00:10:14
8.3 million. 00:10:18
Design and construct Vineyard connector promenade overpass 2.2 million. 00:10:20
Design and construct 400 N traffic signal. 00:10:25
625. 00:10:28
Construct. 00:10:30
Pedestrian Enhancements. 00:10:31
At South Main St. 00:10:33
55,006 million. 00:10:35
For our ongoing. 00:10:37
Environmental Remediation. 00:10:39
And there's 1.3 million for a lift station. 00:10:42
Lift station #4. 00:10:46
I went through those kind of quick but. 00:10:52
That. That's our big list of. 00:10:54
What's in there now for capital projects? 00:10:56
For our enterprise funds, this is a just a quick snapshot of the the water fund. 00:11:00
Operating revenue, we're forecasting a four point. 00:11:05
4 million operating expenses 3.4 million. 00:11:08
And this chart shows. 00:11:12
In blue, the operating revenues and expenses are in orange. 00:11:14
Over the last. 00:11:18
Several years. 00:11:19
So you can see the increase that we're. 00:11:21
We're projecting for next year. 00:11:23
Wastewater fund overview. 00:11:28
Or projecting 2.8 million. 00:11:31
And operating revenue, operating expenses. 00:11:34
Again, about 2.8 million. So that's relatively flat. 00:11:37
That we're forecasting for next year. 00:11:41
And the storm water. 00:11:44
We will have. 00:11:45
Operating revenue. 00:11:47
That isn't covered by operating expenses. 00:11:49
It's the general fund that covers the rest of that. 00:11:52
In the coming year. 00:11:57
Transportation Fund. 00:12:01
1.5 million in operating revenue. 00:12:03
So we're anticipating there. 00:12:06
Operating expenses 1.4. 00:12:08
A little under that. 00:12:10
60,000 under that. 00:12:11
So these operating expenses don't include. 00:12:13
The capital expenditures that are part of each of these each of these funds. 00:12:16
It's just the operating piece that gets pulled out here. 00:12:21
Our internal service fund overview. 00:12:27
The budget there is 1.7 million, that's a decrease of about 9%. 00:12:30
From uh. 00:12:34
From the current fiscal year budget. 00:12:35
That includes things like human resources, our fleet. 00:12:38
Management Facilities management. 00:12:41
All those internal services. 00:12:44
And you can see there some of the sources of revenue to fund the internal services and and those expenditures facilities fleet. 00:12:49
Information systems. 00:12:57
HR. 00:12:59
And those sources from the general fund, some of the enterprise funds as well. 00:13:01
And the RDA. 00:13:06
And that's our overview of this. 00:13:11
Current tentative budget. 00:13:14
Appreciate the good work my on. Thank you so much. I appreciate the good work on that. 00:13:16
Council is, as we've discussed many times. 00:13:21
This is the big lever that we can pull is we kind of want to get initiatives across through the city is the budget. So the intent 00:13:24
is that the majority of our our work sessions from now until. 00:13:29
June 23rd Evan, is that when we need to? 00:13:35
Get it? 00:13:37
Correct June, June 23rd. I really want to spend a lot of time with you guys, make sure everyone's. 00:13:39
Desires, concerns, everything, it heard. 00:13:44
On this because again, this is this is really the the tool that we use to to guide the city. 00:13:46
The council uses to guide the city. 00:13:51
We'll be working on this a ton, Evan. I worked on it. 00:13:54
We were working on it. 00:13:58
30 minutes ago So like it's it's a. 00:13:59
It's a working program. How would you describe this? 00:14:03
A work in progress. 00:14:07
Yeah, that's a nice way to say trying to land, going work in progress. Yeah, it will continue to evolve. 00:14:09
And until we go final on June 23rd. 00:14:15
So correct. 00:14:18
OK, can I? 00:14:20
Can I jump in? Yes please. My comments and public comment yes. 00:14:22
There was maybe some things that I don't think were shared very explicitly and I just wanted to make sure that this was. 00:14:26
Kind of put out in the open. 00:14:33
When I'm looking at this. 00:14:36
While the overall budget has grown. 00:14:39
Largely due to we have an increase in revenues, an increase of houses, increase of. 00:14:42
Things that are offered. 00:14:46
As a city. 00:14:47
The. 00:14:48
Surplus. 00:14:51
The surplus in this budget. 00:14:52
Is $1,000,000. 00:14:54
Roughly. 00:14:57
Which is an indicator to me that we are moving in a more solvent. 00:14:58
Direction. 00:15:01
Now something that I don't think. 00:15:03
Was expressed. 00:15:05
Additional to that. 00:15:06
Is that in this budget you include? 00:15:08
Roughly $7,000,000 in external funding. 00:15:11
So. 00:15:16
As I'm looking through the different line items of stuff that includes the grants, that includes things like. 00:15:17
Rebates. 00:15:23
And obviously all of that money is not coming. 00:15:25
This year. 00:15:27
And it's. 00:15:28
Largely due to some contingencies or I mean there's, there's contingent funding, there's reimbursement based funding. 00:15:29
Multi year rollover projects like I see all of those things in here. 00:15:37
I'm curious. 00:15:41
Because that is. 00:15:43
A huge portion of the overall budget. 00:15:44
I think. 00:15:48
The total on here is like 17.5 million or 17.7 million. That's like $7,000,000 in external funding. 00:15:48
Could you for a subsequent work session breakdown? 00:15:55
The capital projects list into. 00:15:59
What's being internally funded? 00:16:01
What's being externally funded and what the. 00:16:03
Grant funded or RDA funded amounts are. 00:16:05
Just for a more clear picture for the audience. 00:16:08
Yeah, you bet that's. 00:16:12
I like that, Yeah, Thank you. Because I. 00:16:14
You know, if we look at. 00:16:17
Last year's budget. 00:16:19
15 and a half million dollars. 00:16:20
To this year's budget, you see the. 00:16:22
$2,000,000 increase in spend. 00:16:25
But that's also accounting for. 00:16:27
A huge portion of money that's coming from. 00:16:29
External to the city. So our internal spend I think is actually reduced. 00:16:32
In addition to that, you have. 00:16:37
A greater surplus this year? 00:16:39
So I just wanted to say I. 00:16:41
Am very grateful for the work that the department heads have have put in on this to try and meet the. 00:16:44
Council's vision and goal for this. 00:16:50
As well as a special thank you to Evan for for working so diligently on this. Thank you guys. 00:16:52
Yes, thank you. 00:16:57
All right, we're going to turn over to public comment. Is anyone like to comment on this? 00:16:59
Please Daria, come up and. 00:17:04
Be great. 00:17:07
Good evening Daria Evans, a Villas resident. 00:17:17
I just have a couple of questions about this. 00:17:20
Budget. I'd like to know what is the Rad Newman project? 00:17:24
That you mentioned. 00:17:28
And I have another question. 00:17:30
Will concrete aprons go around every fire hydrant in the city? 00:17:32
And the design construct for 400 N. 00:17:37
That is 400 N part of the RDA. 00:17:43
I'm just curious about that because I didn't know that it was if it is. 00:17:46
And also Vineyard Beach grant. 00:17:50
That expired in April 2026. 00:17:53
So I'm wondering, did you reapply for that Vineyard Beach Improvement grant? 00:17:56
Thank you. 00:17:59
Concrete 400 OK, let me jump into this. 00:18:00
Anybody else? 00:18:05
OK, come on down, Karen. 00:18:07
Karen Cornelius Villas resident. 00:18:22
My questions. 00:18:25
Pertain to the page the RDA page that came up. 00:18:26
My questions pertain to the RDA page that came up. 00:18:29
And I don't see. 00:18:32
Time for public? 00:18:34
Comment in the RDA meeting so I wanted to ask now. 00:18:36
I'm just curious. 00:18:39
After living here. 00:18:41
For 4 1/2 years. 00:18:43
I'm beginning. 00:18:45
Beginning and. 00:18:47
In a very miniscule way. 00:18:49
To have an understanding of the RDA. 00:18:51
But my question is. 00:18:54
How can we property owners in Vineyard? 00:18:57
Get a balance sheet of the RDA. 00:19:01
What is outstanding? What have we paid? What have we brought in? 00:19:04
And where is the capital funding going to come from to repay the bonds on the area? 00:19:08
So basically I want to know where we sit. 00:19:13
With that. 00:19:16
Because my property hinges on. 00:19:17
The answer to that question? 00:19:20
And I think that that is only fair for all of Vineyard to know and understand that. 00:19:22
So there are a lot of things up there that we plan on paying. 00:19:27
But I really. 00:19:30
Just like with our budgets at home, I don't want to. 00:19:32
Pay for something when we have no idea where we are. 00:19:34
So I would like to see. 00:19:38
That maybe we could step back a little bit. 00:19:40
And assess the RDA. 00:19:43
So that we. 00:19:46
Who have invested? 00:19:47
In this town. 00:19:48
Can know if our property? 00:19:50
Property, uh. 00:19:51
Is going to maintain its value or if we are sunk. 00:19:54
And I don't think that that's an unreasonable question for a citizen in a Tehran so. 00:19:57
Thanks. And I really would like to know how do we see that? 00:20:02
How do we see? How do we know what's encumbered? 00:20:05
How do we know how much the bonds are? 00:20:08
How do we know? 00:20:10
What's coming in to pay those bonds? 00:20:11
So that's just my. 00:20:13
Tiny understanding, but it's growing. 00:20:16
So thanks. Thank you, Karen. 00:20:18
Nathan, did you have one as well? 00:20:21
Sounds good. 00:20:25
OK, this is Nathan still again. 00:20:27
I noticed that this got published on the website. 00:20:30
Prior to Wednesday of last week. That's awesome. I appreciate this getting uploaded earlier so that we can have more time digging 00:20:34
into this. 00:20:38
As I've been going through it the last few days though, I did have some thoughts I'm. 00:20:42
Really grateful that this is one of many. 00:20:46
Public workshops, public hearings that will be held before any of this is finalized. So. 00:20:49
I'll just dig into some of the. 00:20:55
Early. 00:20:57
Items that I found, do you? 00:20:58
Do you have those on your phone? 00:21:00
I can e-mail them over. Thank you so much. 00:21:02
Don't need to take notes. I'm happy. I'm happy to e-mail them over, so go ahead. 00:21:04
OK, so first when it comes to. 00:21:07
The operating surplus that Parker mentioned. 00:21:11
The budget projects a surplus of 1.195 million. 00:21:14
Dollars as an operating surplus. 00:21:18
But noticed it also draws 950,000. 00:21:20
Just from a. 00:21:24
A prior year fund balance. So that means that the city's true operational surplus, which is just. 00:21:25
Revenues generated. 00:21:31
Versus expenditures without dipping into savings? 00:21:33
Is 245,000. 00:21:36
So. 00:21:38
I am curious about the methodology on. 00:21:39
Why the city is drawing down? 00:21:42
Almost $1,000,000 from reserves. 00:21:45
And year when they're. 00:21:48
Adding. 00:21:49
To reserves. 00:21:50
By. 00:21:51
Just over. 00:21:53
200 over that amount. Just want to understand the methodology behind that. 00:21:54
Especially when revenues are growing by 11%. 00:21:59
And is that surplus being? 00:22:04
Presented. 00:22:06
With some kind of context, I just need to better understand the reasoning behind that. 00:22:07
It was odd to me. 00:22:12
Second, taking a look at all of the full time salaries. 00:22:14
I noticed that the mayor and council full time salaries are increasing. 00:22:17
By over 30% for full time and part time by 15%. That's 20% overall for the mayor and council organization. Yeah, thanks for 00:22:22
bringing that up. That was a fat finger, so. 00:22:28
It's not. Yeah. Again, just wanted to understand the context behind my apologies. Like I said, we've been working on this up to. 00:22:35
15 AM. 00:22:42
Yeah, but you're good fat fingered it. 00:22:42
Are bad. Thank you good got just want to understand. 00:22:44
Where? Where our compensation studies? 00:22:47
Taken for not just the salaries in that or code. 00:22:50
Admittedly doesn't look great, but also. 00:22:54
Other organization codes. 00:22:57
Where compensation studies performed. 00:22:59
In the same budget, we see full-time salaries. 00:23:03
Cut in the city manager communications. 00:23:05
Planning. 00:23:08
Cut by 39 percent 55% Forty, 8% special events. 00:23:09
Eliminated almost entirely. 00:23:13
Is there anywhere on this budget? 00:23:15
I didn't see it where the number of FTE positions. 00:23:17
Are identified. 00:23:21
Full time equivalent positions I think. 00:23:22
Some context. 00:23:26
Into why those adjustments happened and also who absor. 00:23:27
The workload. 00:23:32
If there is an absorption of the workload, that context would be helpful for the public as well As for the organization. 00:23:33
Especially. 00:23:40
Given that the Planning Department budget is being cut by 42%. 00:23:41
Which includes an 87% reduction in. 00:23:45
Software, Uh. 00:23:48
And professional subscriptions. 00:23:49
I was just at a. 00:23:52
Special meeting this morning that says that the Orem Provo metro area is projected to grow by over 18,000 residents every year for 00:23:54
the next 5 years. That directly impacts. 00:23:59
Vineyard. 00:24:04
Just want to understand the cities justification for cutting planning as much as it did. 00:24:06
When the area is going to be impacted significantly over these next few years? 00:24:10
Again. 00:24:16
Context. 00:24:16
Some kind of narrative narrative that explains these decisions would be helpful. 00:24:17
When it comes to grant revenue? 00:24:24
It jumps from zero. 00:24:26
To 773,000. 00:24:28
In this budget, we touched on the grants a bit now, but. 00:24:30
Again, context would be helpful to see. 00:24:35
What's been awarded? 00:24:38
What's been contracted? 00:24:39
Or if these are just projections? If they're just projections, is it appropriate to put in a budget or not? 00:24:41
Again. 00:24:48
A narrative. 00:24:48
That explains the process goes a long way with that. 00:24:49
Regarding the police contract and equipment. 00:24:53
This is just. 00:24:55
The OCD accounting in me if the police contract service line is increased by 15%. 00:24:56
And it's only in the line item that says contract services. I understand that includes the new programs that you mentioned and the 00:25:03
Flock cameras. 00:25:06
Curious if the city will own that equipment or if that will be owned. 00:25:10
By another agency. 00:25:14
And if it is the city, that's. 00:25:16
Owned it. Have we put it into an asset management plan? 00:25:18
Shouldn't that be more coded to equipment rather than contract services? 00:25:22
Again. 00:25:26
The narrative explaining what the new equipment would look like. 00:25:26
Helps. 00:25:29
Understand those questions so we can make sure it's covered appropriately in the city books. 00:25:30
Given the cities we talked about. 00:25:37
The salary changes and. 00:25:39
What looks like FTE changes. 00:25:42
That's it's a pretty significant. 00:25:44
Change in just organization. 00:25:46
Given the city's significant debt obligations, including about 6.7 million. 00:25:49
In the RDA debt service alone. 00:25:54
Has the city's bond advisor. 00:25:57
Been consulted. 00:25:59
And are they aware regarding all the proposed staffing changes? Because staffing changes have a direct reflection on the bond 00:26:01
rating? 00:26:04
Of an agency. 00:26:08
And so I think that's worth addressing as well. 00:26:10
Even if we don't have a plan to issue any new bonds or get any new debt. 00:26:14
I'm not planning to get a new credit card, but I still care about my credit score. It's. 00:26:19
We want to make sure we're still maintaining as strong a bond rating as possible, and that was a red flag for me. 00:26:23
Yeah, I just want to. 00:26:33
Double down on the importance of transparency. 00:26:34
Particularly when it comes to. 00:26:38
Publishing these an agenda. 00:26:40
Having an accompanying staff report. 00:26:42
Would go a long way. 00:26:45
In just helping to understand. 00:26:47
The process, even if it's this, is the first of many work sessions. We don't have a lot of details yet. Something that explains 00:26:49
that process would go a very long way. 00:26:53
Awesome. Yes, happy to e-mail all that over. Appreciate it. 00:26:57
OK. Thank you. Anybody else? 00:27:00
OK, seeing none. Thank you, Nathan. 00:27:03
We will. 00:27:08
I will entertain a motion to leave the public hearing. 00:27:10
Forward this. 00:27:14
So moved. Awesome. 00:27:18
Do I have a second, second all in favor? 00:27:20
Aye, OK. Motion passes. Thank you. 00:27:23
All right, we got some consent items here. 00:27:25
We have 7.1. 00:27:29
Do we do we need to pass? 00:27:31
This and the we're going to do that. We've received it. 00:27:34
That is, we're going to get the action item. 00:27:39
Down. 00:27:42
#10 and 10.1. 00:27:43
All right, so we got some consent items 7.1 approval of April 20. 00:27:45
To 2026 City Council minutes. 00:27:49
7.2 Approval of May 5th. 00:27:52
2026 City Council minutes and 7.3 approval of Central Utah Water Conservancy District CWP water supply. 00:27:55
Agreement and takedown schedule. 00:28:03
Do anyone? 00:28:06
Do we want to peel? Does anyone want to peel any of these off of here? 00:28:07
OK, I want to hear 7.3 again. 00:28:13
OK, just kidding. No, I'm kidding. That was a great presentation of the work session. Thank you. 00:28:16
Awesome. Thank you. 00:28:20
All right. 00:28:22
Motion to. 00:28:24
Approve these consent. 00:28:26
OK, do I have a second? 00:28:27
2nd. 00:28:28
Awesome. 00:28:29
All in favor. 00:28:30
Aye, aye. 00:28:31
OK. Motion passes. Thank you. 00:28:32
OK, we're going to jump to #8 public, regular public comments. 00:28:34
If anyone would like to have. 00:28:38
And lots of public comments today. 00:28:40
Anybody else would like to go? 00:28:44
Come on down, Daria. 00:28:45
So. 00:28:49
Yeah. 00:28:52
Daria Evans, Villa's Vineyard resident. 00:28:59
I just would like to make a comment. 00:29:03
That I hope that future city amenities are unencumbered by developer taxes before they become city properties. 00:29:07
I think you know what I'm talking about. 00:29:14
And also will. 00:29:16
Our questions from. 00:29:19
The previous public hearing be answered tonight. 00:29:21
Thank you. 00:29:24
Yeah. What question, Daria, do you have? What questions? 00:29:32
Do we have that are going unanswered? 00:29:37
Here another. 00:29:39
Oh yes, OK, yes, I thought it would be last week. 00:29:41
I was like. 00:29:45
OK. 00:29:46
And Josh, let's get with. 00:29:47
Those are mostly to come to him and then I have some information on the sunset. 00:29:49
Speech I can give you the. 00:29:54
Their load on that. Can we have Josh answer maybe? 00:29:55
Karen's question about the balance sheet, would that be possible? 00:29:59
What's the fence for women? 00:30:02
We're in the RDA meeting. 00:30:04
Let's yeah, we'll do that. I was thinking, I was thinking, we'll do that in the RDA, mate. Is that OK, Karen? 00:30:06
OK, that was my thought when you're talking, so OK. 00:30:10
Great. All right. 00:30:13
Any other public comments? We could answer one of them, which was the grant requirement. I believe that you're required to show 00:30:15
the grants. 00:30:19
In the budget, even though they come or not, you have to list them out. 00:30:24
By state law, is that why they're included in the annual budget? Because if you're. 00:30:28
If you don't list them in the budget, therefore you can't then spend it. 00:30:32
And when they come in? 00:30:35
I think. I think that's what was explained to me. 00:30:37
They're included since we have the. 00:30:40
The expenditure side of it, right? 00:30:42
So if they don't come in, then we would come in and vote to remove them from the budget. 00:30:44
Correct. We won't. We won't spend. 00:30:49
Against those online items if the grants don't come in. 00:30:51
So, and the good works on that is, is you're being transparent with the citizens of. 00:30:54
If the money comes in, we're telling you now that this is how we're going to spend it. But if the money doesn't come in. 00:30:59
Then we would come and adjust it. So I just wanted to answer that question. 00:31:05
OK, awesome. 00:31:08
And I can answer the other one, the the Rad Women program. 00:31:11
It's stands for Rape Aggression defense, so it's for. 00:31:14
Helping women. 00:31:19
Defend themselves in sexual assault cases. 00:31:21
And the chief is online. 00:31:24
In case he's needed OK like. 00:31:26
Awesome. 00:31:32
OK, great. 00:31:34
All righty, any other public comments? 00:31:37
Come on down, Sir. 00:31:40
Hi, Mayor and City Council. 00:31:43
Grateful to be here. 00:31:46
Just a couple of could you state your name for the record? 00:31:47
Dennis Frank in the Cascade neighborhood. 00:31:50
We have a. 00:31:52
Path that we normally take our walks on over the wetlands that is closed. 00:31:54
Don't know what it's? Well, there's some issues that need to be addressed there. 00:32:00
But I'm sure that there is going to be a lot of people that will want to cross that path for our Vineyard days. 00:32:05
If it's not corrected by then you're going to see all sorts of people. There's already people that we see going across. 00:32:12
The wetlands on that path. 00:32:18
Even though it says closed. 00:32:20
Plastic won't keep people away. Yeah, for sure. As well as the slide heel. There's plastic around that. If you go by there, 00:32:24
there's all sorts of footprints down on the slides. They're already going down those slides. 00:32:30
The only if you don't open that up for. 00:32:37
Vineyard days, you'll have to put the sheriff's. 00:32:40
Communication vehicle right in front of that salute. 00:32:44
Yeah, they can monitor that. 00:32:48
Also in the. 00:32:52
Wetlands on the east side by the housing there, there's a whole. 00:32:53
Row of Russian olives that are there. 00:32:58
The regular maintenance. 00:33:01
They don't. 00:33:02
Get close enough to those. 00:33:03
Trees and there's always, every year or every other year, we've got to get in there and. 00:33:06
Manually take down all the. 00:33:12
Overgrowth that happens down there for fire prevention and everything else. 00:33:15
But it looked like yesterday when we walked the path. 00:33:20
That somebody got closer. I don't know if it was the city. 00:33:24
That went and got closer to that. 00:33:27
But yeah, it would be would be nice if maintenance. 00:33:30
Got done a little. 00:33:36
That it's maintained better along that way. 00:33:38
And also the issue with the slide heel on the slide side, there are some steep. 00:33:41
Areas there that. 00:33:47
It's going to turn into weeds unless maintenance does some hand mowing or some. 00:33:48
Weed whacking along some of those areas that were. 00:33:54
Probably should have been. 00:33:58
The the fake grass going in there, what they call that? 00:34:00
Artificial. 00:34:05
Artificial grass. They put some artificial grass, you know, right around the two sides, but there's a lot of steep areas there 00:34:06
that. 00:34:09
I'm sure that the maintenance if they can't ride. 00:34:13
On that hill. 00:34:16
They won't know it. 00:34:17
Thank you. 00:34:19
Thanks, Dennis. 00:34:21
Great. Anybody else with public comments? 00:34:22
OK, great. 00:34:27
Umm. 00:34:30
A lot of those questions. 00:34:32
Were directed. What is that your stuff, Brian? 00:34:33
Yeah, OK. Do you just want to sync with him? 00:34:36
So we can. Awesome. Sounds good. 00:34:39
OK. Thanks guys. 00:34:41
OK, All right. In seeing no other public comments. 00:34:43
We are going to move now. 00:34:46
Two, let's see what we got here. 00:34:48
To our general business items 9.1. 00:34:51
Vineyard Cities floodplain regulation update. 00:34:54
Is, is that who, who's presenting? Is that the same? OK, great. 00:34:57
Turn the time over to this seam. 00:35:02
All right, so this is the best part about the meeting. So please, I expect everyone not to leave. 00:35:08
All right, sweet. OK, so. 00:35:15
This presentation is about the Floodplain Regulation update. I have in parentheses National Flood Insurance Program compliance. So 00:35:17
the main emphasis is in regards to the compliance to the National Flood Insurance Program. 00:35:23
So we are this is in regards to ordinance that's in draft mode that. 00:35:30
Is going to be presented to City Council. 00:35:36
And June so and to be in effect. 00:35:39
So in short, this is serving as a public. 00:35:43
Kind of public inputs, public hearing. 00:35:47
The social social media has been posted. 00:35:49
With this information as well so. 00:35:51
I will go through this assuming that many people in the public have not. 00:35:55
Or who intents have not seen this and. 00:36:00
100% I am happy to stay back and answer specific questions for anyone, whether council or any members of the public, and members 00:36:03
of the public are encouraged to submit comments online as well. 00:36:09
So I just want to recognize Justine Marshall, certified Floodplain manager as well for doing a lot of the legwork to end game is 00:36:15
put together. 00:36:19
So the purpose of this is required to stay compliant with FEMA and the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the National flood. 00:36:24
Assurance Program. 00:36:32
Bottom line, if you're not in compliant then we do not qualify for many necessary programs. Not just a city but residence itself, 00:36:34
but keeps the city eligible for the flood insurance. 00:36:38
As a whole, not just the city. 00:36:43
Like as a proper government agency, but city is residents. 00:36:46
We're also eligible for federal disaster funding. 00:36:50
As well as grants as well. And as we previously talked about grant, grant spending, grant money is a great. 00:36:54
Is a great way to spend money. 00:37:00
But more importantly, it does protect public safety, ensure our property and of course the ability for insurance. 00:37:03
So what is a flood, you may ask? 00:37:09
Of course. 00:37:11
This is actually a very important question and very something very important for people to understand myself having done a 00:37:13
forensic. 00:37:16
Engineering. 00:37:21
Cases in regards to water intrusion. 00:37:22
Most of the times, specifically insurance companies and so forth, they want to know. 00:37:25
Did the water, the cause of the water come because of a flood or not because of a flood? 00:37:30
And so understanding what the definition. 00:37:35
Not anybody that anybody's definition, but the federal government's definition of a flood. 00:37:38
So just outline that this is information that was not presented the last Planning Commission. 00:37:43
I felt it was important. 00:37:48
Caused by our overflows of rivers, lakes and tidal waves. 00:37:50
It is it is can be considered as accumulation of surface water, so. 00:37:55
Oftentimes they. 00:38:00
The cause causation of for flooding is where did the water come from? Did they come from the surface or do they come from under? 00:38:01
From the sky or they come from underneath. 00:38:07
So that is very important to understand. 00:38:10
It can be. 00:38:12
Mud flows. That's caused by flooding. 00:38:14
It could be debris that's caused by flooding. 00:38:17
You know, water itself. Or it can just be your typical. 00:38:19
Water flood. 00:38:22
As well. 00:38:23
So the purpose, the main purpose of this is to define the conditions that are eligible for FEMA and also the National Flood 00:38:25
Insurance Program. 00:38:29
In terms of if someone puts a claim against a property that's been damaged by flood, this is how. 00:38:34
This is considered. 00:38:39
What does floodplain management you may also ask? Well, floodplain management is the regulations to guide development and flood. 00:38:42
Prone areas because. 00:38:48
In essence, it's really comes down to. 00:38:50
Now the government not so much telling people what to do with properties, but trying to provide guidance in terms, in terms of. 00:38:53
How to keep? 00:39:01
People properly. 00:39:03
And of course. 00:39:04
Insurance safe? 00:39:06
It helps reducing flood risk. 00:39:08
Protecting structures and helping managing long term growth. 00:39:10
On that. 00:39:14
The one item on there is about protecting the public. 00:39:16
Costs on that. Having come from Florida, some people may wonder where I came from. I came from Florida, where floods. 00:39:20
Prevail. 00:39:29
Frequent. There we go. 00:39:31
I won't use big words today. 00:39:32
But and you guys repetitive flooding in areas. 00:39:34
That does cost. 00:39:38
Government's money because in essence, because this loss of value. So not only is property values going down. 00:39:40
AKA property taxes. 00:39:46
But oftentimes you'll find that governments and the. 00:39:48
Purchasing the properties that have prepared the flooding. 00:39:52
In order to prevent from. 00:39:55
For future. 00:39:57
Loss of. 00:39:58
Life. 00:39:59
Property as well. 00:40:01
What this is not, this is not an emergency preparedness in the response. So this ordinance does not focus on emergency 00:40:04
preparedness. 00:40:07
Nor does it focus on emergency responses. 00:40:10
Specifically about floodplain management. 00:40:13
So if you come to me and I say I am managing the flood. 00:40:15
Plane, I am not managing the preparedness, I am not managing response so. 00:40:18
How useful am I? I hope I am very useful because. 00:40:23
Minimizes our preparedness needs and our response needs. 00:40:27
However, there are resources out there such as Be Ready Utah. 00:40:30
As you can see with the. 00:40:35
Awesome V. But more importantly, Utah County Sheriff's Office our contract with the Sheriff's Office. 00:40:36
Does provide Emergency Management, emergency response. My Boy Scout group had an awesome tour of the Utah County. 00:40:42
Emergency Management response. 00:40:50
Team and all their cool equipment and tours that they have out there. 00:40:53
It was probably the best part of the. 00:40:56
Boy Scouts. 00:40:58
Trips last year. 00:41:01
But they Vineyard City also has emergency preparedness evacuation maps as well as a plan on the website. 00:41:03
And of course, anyone who has questions about that, about this, they're free to contact the city AKA as well as the Sheriff's 00:41:10
Office. 00:41:14
What triggered this update? 00:41:20
People often wonder, well what triggered the update is. 00:41:22
New flood hazard analysis. 00:41:25
New FEMA data. 00:41:27
And then of course changes to like like levels, wave actions, flow, elevations. 00:41:28
Online with. 00:41:34
All this data is trying to do is trying to evaluate what's the new 1% chance. 00:41:36
Of flooding. 00:41:41
The AKA the 100 year flood. 00:41:42
And also the .2% of annual flooding chance, which is a 500 year flood. 00:41:44
You may say, hey, we just have flood last year, so we should be good for another 99 years. 00:41:49
Unfortunately, that is not true. 00:41:53
And my last life as a public Works director for City of Florida, I experienced 100 year flood three times in one year. 00:41:56
It was probably the best year of my life. 00:42:02
I did not get these in my analog. 00:42:08
I'm not so bad. I'm not so sad about that. 00:42:10
Vineyard specific update. So focusing specifically on Vineyard because that is why we're doing this ordinance. 00:42:13
We are looking at the Utah Lake Proxy. 00:42:19
Location risk. 00:42:22
On there. 00:42:24
In regards to flooding, the impacts that it has as well as we're looking at elevations. 00:42:26
Flood elevation so when Utah Lake goes up. 00:42:31
Not this year, but hopefully in the future years. 00:42:34
Due to. 00:42:36
Much better winter. 00:42:39
And then we also have lots of more rain. 00:42:40
Or, you know, we're, we're trying to determine. 00:42:43
Where? Where do structural elevations need to be? 00:42:45
Of course, what is this required to do? We're required to update our floodplain regulation. If we do not update our floodplain 00:42:48
regulation, we will not be in compliance. 00:42:52
So and that would be. 00:42:57
Listening to me. 00:43:01
Painful. 00:43:03
Or more painful. 00:43:04
We regulate is also to help regulate developments in these flood areas to say if you are going to develop an area that is 00:43:06
identified in the floodplain. 00:43:11
How can we do it safely? 00:43:15
And also about issuing permits, specific permits in order to do. 00:43:18
For people in floodplains. 00:43:23
Because we have to consider public safety. 00:43:24
Impacts and as well as compliance. 00:43:27
The most important thing on here, specifically for public input, is the proposed flood. 00:43:29
Map. 00:43:33
The flood the preliminary map is located on the Utah County GIS site is also located on the. 00:43:35
FEMA sites, however, the Utah County GIS site is. 00:43:42
Much, much. 00:43:45
Better and easier to use. 00:43:46
So that is the link that we provided. 00:43:48
To everyone. 00:43:50
And. 00:43:52
What the? 00:43:54
Current proposed map snapshot here I am. I do have it pulled up as a website and I'm happy to. 00:43:55
Go through it either during this presentation or after the presentation with anyone. 00:44:02
But bottom line, if we're a Vineyard city? 00:44:06
The areas that have been identified for flood hazard areas are along the Lakeshore. 00:44:09
Vineyard Beach, Linda Marina. Technically not in Veneer city but does impact Vineyard because. 00:44:15
We consider one of our own. 00:44:22
As well as parts of Lakeside power Plant. 00:44:23
On there so looking at this map. 00:44:26
That does show the flood areas. 00:44:28
The floodplain or excuse me, the flood map does not take into consideration what areas are developable, who owns the area? Areas 00:44:30
or could could be developed, it just identifies landmass and. 00:44:35
Areas of potential flooding. 00:44:42
And itself and this is. 00:44:44
Broken out into 100 year flood and 500 year flood. 00:44:46
On that. 00:44:49
I do have a link to the website on the bottom for anyone who's curious about the social media posts that we had. 00:44:51
Have up there for public comment. Does have a link to the website as well. 00:44:56
So most people ask. 00:45:00
So where are we getting out? Well, we're getting out to. 00:45:04
Ordinance update. 00:45:07
Or so we can say compliance compliant. 00:45:08
Compliant. There's two parts of the ordinance. One, the first part is development requirements. 00:45:10
And the second part, which is the slide after this talks more about enforcement, but? 00:45:15
What it does is it. 00:45:19
The first ordinance is going to be brought to the City Council on June 2nd. 00:45:23
As I was reminded, this is the first reading and then the second reading would be June. 00:45:28
23rd I believe. 00:45:33
As well. 00:45:37
For it to take to effect. 00:45:39
Well, this organ specifically aligns to the national flood. 00:45:41
Insurance program we work closely with. 00:45:45
The state of Utah. 00:45:48
Of Emergency Management. 00:45:50
Team. 00:45:52
As well as Utah County to ensure that. 00:45:53
The ordinance that we're representing is in alignment. 00:45:56
Adopts the FEMA flood map, which is going to be effective June 23, 2026. 00:46:00
So that's the federal maps, that's that's there the Utah County, the map on Utah County. 00:46:05
Is a reflection of what is being proposed to the federal government. 00:46:11
And then it requires floodplain development permits for any development and flood hazard areas. So if someone is. 00:46:15
Has piece of property and it has the flood zone identifying it. 00:46:20
Identified in it. 00:46:24
They can still move forward, however they have to move forward with. 00:46:25
Specific requirements. 00:46:29
The most basic 1 is that there are. 00:46:31
The floor of their structure has to be. 00:46:33
At least one foot above the base flood elevation. 00:46:35
Which means that. 00:46:39
If a flood happens, it's going to rise to ** mile feeder. 00:46:39
High and their structure has to be 1 feet above that. 00:46:43
On that, of course use flood resistant materials and utilities et cetera, et cetera. 00:46:48
Bomb we're trying to get out is to protect life. Life and property. 00:46:53
The second part of this ordinance is administrative enforcement it officially identifies. 00:46:59
The public works director. 00:47:04
AKA myself right now. 00:47:05
The sham said right now. But hopefully that doesn't change so. 00:47:07
AKA myself for a long time. 00:47:13
Or their designee. 00:47:15
As a floodplain administrator. 00:47:17
On that so it comes down to the official seller who has official say. 00:47:21
In terms of making decisions. 00:47:27
You know, with power comes great responsibility. So in essence, trying to ensure that the. 00:47:30
Public property. 00:47:36
Excuse me? 00:47:38
Life safety and. 00:47:41
Properties being. 00:47:43
Kept safe. It also puts a responsibility on the city to for reviewing. 00:47:45
Maintaining records. 00:47:50
And ensuring that we're coordinating with FEMA state agencies during the process. This is very not new. 00:47:51
However, it just does codify. 00:47:59
It to ensure that it's being followed. 00:48:02
It does have an enforcement tool. Part of it has a stop work orders. 00:48:04
Previously for stop work orders for safety and health. 00:48:10
We've worked with the billing department. 00:48:12
This provides some stop work orders specifically for. 00:48:14
Given to the public works. 00:48:18
In order to do so, it does carry a fine of $1000 a day. 00:48:19
A day or jail time for violations. 00:48:22
So my office is currently not big enough for. 00:48:25
To house. 00:48:28
So we are not anticipating putting in one jail. 00:48:29
It's a public process. 00:48:34
On this very important is outlined as. 00:48:35
Here on the slide. 00:48:39
The most important part of this is that the public. 00:48:40
Common process period ends on May 31st, 2026. 00:48:43
And then it will be taken to City Council. 00:48:48
First time on June 2nd and the second final time June 16th. So my first date was wrong. 00:48:50
On that. 00:48:56
And then the public can submit comments, attend meetings and speak in person. 00:48:58
Of course, they can speak here in public, or they can speak to any of us direct. 00:49:03
Specifically or. 00:49:07
They can go on the website and submit. 00:49:09
Their comments. 00:49:11
On here. 00:49:12
What were you hearing from the public? 00:49:13
Across Utah specifically, not just vineyards. 00:49:15
Is this maps hard to use? Yes, of course. It is a federal government tool so it is confusing. 00:49:18
However, the Utah County has done a great job developing A floodplain map that we provide a link for. 00:49:24
So we encourage everyone to use the Utah County map. 00:49:29
Do I have to get flood insurance? 00:49:33
The answer is it really depends on you if you're inside a flood area. 00:49:35
Yield people are required to get flood insurance because of their lender, not because of the city. 00:49:40
However, if you're not in a flood area, area. 00:49:45
You're still able to get flood insurance regardless on that, so it's not the city requiring it, it's typically lenders. 00:49:48
Who actually who actually own our homes? 00:49:56
Who requires? 00:49:58
Which map should I look at? 00:50:00
Well, we were asking everyone to to look at the update map. 00:50:02
Which is on the Utah County website which is effective June 23rd, 2026. 00:50:06
This uh. 00:50:10
This is going to be the map going forward, obviously, unless there's substantial changes in comments that. 00:50:12
That need to be addressed. 00:50:17
Why is this changing? Well, it's changing because we're getting better. 00:50:19
Excuse me? Better. 00:50:22
Data from them and better modeling in order to understand risk. 00:50:23
It's not increasing risk, it's better. It's us understanding it better. 00:50:28
And can the city fix this? 00:50:32
Public works can fix a lot of things, but we cannot fix. 00:50:34
Maps. 00:50:37
When they're on this but. 00:50:38
This really affects the real world risk. 00:50:40
The risk does not go away, however. Regulations are based on risk. 00:50:43
And, umm. 00:50:47
What we're trying to do is trying to minimize risk. 00:50:48
To not just the city, but to homeowners. 00:50:51
Again, what does this mean to Vineyard? 00:50:55
Here's a map. This is not any This is not any development site plan here in Vineyard. Is just an arbitrary map found on the 00:50:57
Internet kind of showing. 00:51:01
Showing where Like a floodplain. 00:51:05
Elevation, like the flood elevation, overlaps with a proposed development and. 00:51:08
Some in a made-up city. 00:51:12
It doesn't mean that people that people cannot develop in the floodplain, it just means that all those areas within the 00:51:14
floodplain. 00:51:17
Area is. 00:51:21
Being developed to a much higher standard in order to ensure that. 00:51:23
Those structures are being protected. 00:51:26
Again, not all properties are. 00:51:29
All right, So this is the most important part of the presentation because it's the end of the presentation. 00:51:34
So whether the takeaways, the takeaways are about the impacts of the city. 00:51:39
What we're trying to do is protect infrastructure investments. 00:51:43
Share continued access to flood insurance for. 00:51:46
For the residents of the city. 00:51:49
Provides clear regulation framework. 00:51:52
That's aligned to state and federal. 00:51:55
Regulations and requirements. 00:51:57
It shifts risk mitigation to upfront design. 00:51:59
In construction rather than post-disaster cost which? 00:52:02
Is very caught, much as much more costly. 00:52:05
And whatever. 00:52:09
Planning on doing is adopted adapting this new ordinance, keeping the city in good standing with the National Flood Insurance 00:52:11
Program, reducing long term financial and safety risks. 00:52:15
And, of course, establishing clear and enforceable development standards. 00:52:19
That is the end of my presentations. 00:52:24
Presentation. Is there any questions? I feel like we should give a round of applause. 00:52:26
OK. 00:52:33
Awesome. 00:52:35
OK. 00:52:35
Council, let's move to discussion on this. 00:52:37
Item can I we ask questions Yes, please. Let's let's do that go ahead I. 00:52:40
Parkerman, Parker. So 2 questions and one of them I think is is partially addressed. I just wanted to clarify. 00:52:46
So the changes to this ordinance, are they all purely compliance driven? 00:52:53
Or are we, as a city, adding any additional local regulatory standard to them? 00:52:58
So that's a great question. So this whole. 00:53:04
The ordinance is. 00:53:07
In essence, A framework aligned with the state it's. 00:53:09
All compliance driven. 00:53:13
There's very little changes that the city chose to take such as example, some cities do have a floodplain manager. 00:53:14
Specific. Specific. 00:53:21
Position. 00:53:23
My last city in Florida, we have floodplain managers, so the floodplain manager was identified. 00:53:24
Here in Veneer City. 00:53:29
We we identify the. 00:53:30
Public Works Director. 00:53:32
As the flood plate manager. 00:53:34
In itself so. 00:53:36
The only changes that we did was more administrative on how the process works. 00:53:38
Which really is minimal changes in comparison to how it works. 00:53:41
The fines that there are. 00:53:46
That were shown in jail time. 00:53:48
Are compliance driven or not city driven? 00:53:49
So we could not change the fines or not say we're not giving jail time, I guess. 00:53:53
OK, now I have 3 questions. 00:53:58
Speaking of the enforcement. 00:54:00
Piece and the fines that were presented on. 00:54:02
What are those in? 00:54:05
Regards to are those those are fines specifically for developers who don't develop to the standard now being outlined. 00:54:06
Yes, Sir. So for example, and we haven't had this here and there we go. So we haven't had this here in Venuta and it's very seldom 00:54:13
happens in Utah State, in the state of Utah as a general. 00:54:19
However, in areas that have a lot of. 00:54:26
Have more areas of flood? 00:54:29
Flooding occurrences. 00:54:31
If someone go if a person. 00:54:34
Develops their property. 00:54:37
And is changing the flood. 00:54:39
Plane mapping. 00:54:41
In essence, building a levy or changing the direction of flow and so forth, and it starts to impact their property owner. 00:54:43
Typically it would just be a civil lawsuit between. 00:54:50
Individuals. 00:54:53
And what this would be able to do is allow the city to start putting a. 00:54:54
Enforcement, compliance and fine driven. 00:54:59
Into it as an example, so. 00:55:01
Mostly. Mostly these are. 00:55:05
Enforcements are driven towards. 00:55:09
People who are non compliance that are. 00:55:11
Developing without permits. 00:55:13
And developing or doing something that would cause adverse. 00:55:14
Conditions to their adjacent property owners. 00:55:19
OK. And then my last question. 00:55:21
To your knowledge, is there any material? 00:55:24
Cost or expense that residents or the city incur by adopting this. 00:55:27
No, there's not any. 00:55:32
So the. 00:55:34
This and I probably should have. 00:55:35
I should probably should have stressed this portion out. 00:55:39
But it does not impact. 00:55:42
Existing homes. There we go. 00:55:44
So the public impact is is for new building requirements. 00:55:46
For new building permits, it does not impact existing. 00:55:49
Homes and existing permits. 00:55:52
Itself. 00:55:54
However, that does not say that if someone gets insurance company switches insurance companies from insurance company AT insurance 00:55:56
Company B. 00:56:00
Insurance company may require additional. 00:56:04
Changes. 00:56:07
On certain things, but. 00:56:09
Then again. 00:56:11
That's a more of a problem. For example roofs. 00:56:13
As an as an example, I know I'm facing. 00:56:17
In order to relieve my insurance, I have to put a new roof on my house. 00:56:22
As an example. 00:56:25
But this does not impact any any persons existing properties. 00:56:27
Or existing structures. Thank you. 00:56:32
OK. Questions or comments, Counsel Jake. 00:56:34
Go ahead, let the record show that Councilman. 00:56:37
Mccumber lives on the shores. 00:56:40
So I just want to make sure. 00:56:43
The floodplain, he's concerned, Yeah. And again, I am more concerned about liquefaction and my house sinking into the lake. Yeah. 00:56:44
OK. Yeah. Just wanted to make sure. Like he's the only one asking questions. We're fine. Did we get that concern for the record? 00:56:52
Yeah, we want to make sure we'll put that on the record. OK. 00:56:57
The second thing The second thing though, is is. 00:57:02
With this state mandate. 00:57:05
This is 20 years ago, but the state actually. 00:57:07
Had modeling. 00:57:10
Around the break in Deer Creek. 00:57:12
Or. 00:57:15
Strawberry or Jordanelle did any of ledgers? 00:57:17
Literature come down from the state. 00:57:20
In new modeling for those I know, they've redone Deer Creek, so it's been many years since they did that, but there used to be a 00:57:22
big concern. 00:57:26
And there would be things that come. 00:57:29
Came out of the state for that. That would show. 00:57:31
The effect of Vineyard. 00:57:34
Yeah, if it were to break. 00:57:36
So. 00:57:39
And we're actually working with the county in terms of our risk management plan. 00:57:42
In terms of and where the county is, we met with them. 00:57:47
Really two weeks ago where they're going through all it's and it's also in conjunction with Mountain Association of Governments, 00:57:50
right? So the Youth County and Mountain Association of Governments is putting together a risk management maps in order to 00:57:55
determine. 00:57:59
Infrastructure that are. 00:58:04
Being identified as high risk or if it if a. 00:58:06
XYZ disaster occurred. As you can see the Utah County map is a hazard map has earthquakes, flood. 00:58:10
Landslides. Rock falls. 00:58:17
Et cetera and. 00:58:19
This will identify. 00:58:22
Hazards that are at being in high risk areas. 00:58:23
Around Winter City as a whole, so that's currently being done. 00:58:28
And just for on the damn tab, there's one that shows the dam break. 00:58:31
Oh, is there one on there on that? Yeah, there we go. 00:58:35
Yep. Hang on, Utah County's map is did your iOS map, they've done a lot with their GIS system and right, and that's what I wanted 00:58:39
to show because it doesn't show most of Vineyard, right. If you zoom in, I don't think it really just Parker Styles. 00:58:45
Parker's house is pretty screwed, no? Yeah, he's done. Follows the Provo River, right? So it misses us. 00:58:52
Well, and that's what I wanted to show people. When we put it out of the social media, people had a lot of questions and I was 00:58:57
like. 00:59:00
Actually, the Bay, Provo Bay in and in the Lehigh is our highest. 00:59:03
Vineyard would. And I just wanted to make sure it was on the record that. 00:59:07
Largely skips. You'd have to have a catastrophic. 00:59:10
Is that all three breaking or is that just one of the three? 00:59:14
You know, at least 2. Is it 2? OK, well. 00:59:18
Yeah, and it also. 00:59:22
You would also have to have them hit at the same time. 00:59:24
The modeling that they had, and this is 20 years ago, but I I would love that an updated model just to make sure nothing's 00:59:28
changed. 00:59:30
Yeah. So citizens know, Yeah, this, this, this is available. So the link that we have on the website actually takes you through 00:59:33
this website. 00:59:36
OK. So residents are able to access, not just we're asking them specifically for a flood? 00:59:39
Inputs, but they are able to access all the different types of hazards that Utah County has mapped out. 00:59:44
Yeah, click the quick one. 00:59:48
Right. I just make sure people know because this is the earthquake one. Other comments or questions from council regarding this? 00:59:50
No. 00:59:53
OK. But yeah, I consider is also the ALFAC Alf factor. So everyone plugs in their hair dryers at the same time. The world does 00:59:57
explode. So hopefully there we go. 01:00:01
Yeah. So hopefully that's that's something like that happens is very low. 01:00:05
Yeah, OK, great. 01:00:09
OK. Thank you for your hard work on this team. That was a big presentation. Appreciate that, you and your team. 01:00:11
Don't lie together. Thank you guys, you're awesome. 01:00:16
OK, let's jump down to. 01:00:19
Any other discussion from Council on that? 01:00:21
OK, hearing none, let's jump to action items 10.1. 01:00:23
So 10.1 is approved the updated consolidated fee schedule. My thought was like I. 01:00:27
Touch earlier in the meeting is we chunk out. 01:00:32
We have 6 meetings between now and or we have their six weeks between now and when we need to go live with this. 01:00:34
June 23rd I really would like to make sure that staff has opportunities to get in front of us with their priorities. Council can 01:00:39
hear them, listen to them and make sure that we have good. 01:00:43
Alignment on where we want to take this budget. 01:00:48
Um, so again. 01:00:50
Just to reiterate, this is a starting point. You know that we've. 01:00:52
There's some. 01:00:55
Where we're working on it. 01:00:56
All day today, so. 01:00:57
There's umm. 01:00:59
We'll keep going through that. 01:01:00
OK. So any comments on that? 01:01:02
We do need to vote on the 10th. 01:01:05
Yes, yeah. 01:01:07
Correct. Yep. So we go to the next phase, yes. 01:01:09
So what do we do? Where we? 01:01:11
Is it fine to just have it noticed under a public hearing? 01:01:13
Instead of an actual item. OK. 01:01:17
And it's just a motion to accept. 01:01:19
OK, OK. 01:01:21
I I think that there's. 01:01:28
I mean, there's. 01:01:29
A lot of there's going to be a lot of changes. 01:01:30
Between now and then and so it's. 01:01:32
The mayors cutting our. 01:01:35
Our salaries, Yeah. The immediate change is correcting the fat finger. Yeah. 01:01:36
Which has already been done, so that's good. 01:01:42
I I like the call out on making it more detailed for the. 01:01:47
And a staffing plan, making sure there's good staffing plan there, all those. 01:01:52
Questions and to make sure because I'd like to see I did speak with just. 01:01:56
I did speak with our bonding company. We met with them three days and recently. 01:02:00
Chatted with about the changes, they were fine with it. They said sounds great so just. 01:02:04
Just. 01:02:08
So that. 01:02:09
Answer that question regarding the. 01:02:10
But I'm also like. 01:02:12
This is the I mean, it's really early with citizens if we could do a social media post to review the budget and look through. 01:02:14
Take emails and. 01:02:20
Evans awesome that. 01:02:22
Listen and hear and go over it, you know? 01:02:23
We've got a lot of time so. 01:02:26
Yeah, OK. 01:02:28
All righty, I will. 01:02:31
I just want to note on the consolidated fee schedule. 01:02:33
Are we just adopting this for? 01:02:35
This fiscal year or do we want to change the title to have it apply to? 01:02:37
Next fiscal year too. 01:02:41
Brian, what were you thinking on that? 01:02:43
I like a couple weeks out. 01:02:44
Oh, just the fee schedule. Are we gonna? 01:02:48
Plan on continuing these into next year. Are we going to? 01:02:51
Kind of readopt for just the title of the thing says. 01:02:53
Fiscal year ending 26 for the. 01:02:57
For the fee schedule. 01:02:59
So the fiscal year, yeah, I think we can just update it to the fiscal year. 01:03:00
27 year and then the next one we could do, we can update it to 2627. 01:03:04
OK, it's not like we don't change it about once a month anyway. 01:03:09
OK, OK. 01:03:14
OK. 01:03:17
All right, so let's do the. 01:03:19
What did we decide on SO? 01:03:21
Are we good just to pass the let's do the consolidated fee schedule first? 01:03:22
Right. And then we can do the amended. 01:03:26
The. 01:03:29
The tentative budget, Let's do that one, OK? 01:03:30
So let's do the fee schedule first. 01:03:32
That good, guys, OK. 01:03:34
I'll entertain a motion and we'll do. 01:03:36
On the amended. 01:03:39
Consolidated fee schedule. Updated consolidated fee schedule. 01:03:41

So we've got two eyes both there and then, Parker, aye. 01:04:09
OK, passes. 01:04:12
All righty, so now we are going to. 01:04:14
Approve the. 01:04:18
Tentative budget. 01:04:21
Can I get a motion on that? 01:04:23
You're you're accepting, accepting. 01:04:24

Do I have a second? 01:04:36
Second, Second. Awesome. 01:04:37
We'll start my left here, Parker. 01:04:39
Aye, Councilman hold. 01:04:40
Aye, Jake Wood. 01:04:43
I David I. 01:04:44
And Ezra? 01:04:46
Aye, OK. 01:04:47
That passes. 01:04:48
All righty, that is all we have. 01:04:50
City Council meeting Oh no, we have the. 01:04:52
Agenda item to switch our annual schedule. I'm so sorry. 01:04:55
Thank you. Let's 10.2 good catch. 01:04:59
All righty, let's do the discussion and action. 01:05:01
On changing the. 01:05:04
Agenda. 01:05:07
So noon isn't working for all of us, so we were thinking about moving it to either a Tuesday or Wednesday at 3:00. 01:05:09
Does anybody have any objections to either of those? 01:05:17
Yeah. 01:05:20
Just the working session, not the 6:00 PM or. 01:05:23
Just so it's later in the day so it could solve. 01:05:28
Two hours with staff and then. 01:05:30
If it goes later. 01:05:33
So those don't work. 01:05:36
What would you recommend as we your schedules try the tightest? 01:05:38
Yeah, yeah. 01:05:40
Because we can't do it Thursday or Friday. Because we can't turn around the agenda in time. 01:05:44
Yeah, yeah, now. 01:05:49
Got to protect Robin. Thinking about think about you, Robin. Yeah. 01:05:51
Do you have a preference Tuesday or Wednesday? Like no. 01:05:55
OK. I would prefer Tuesday. If we could hold it Tuesday, that would be helpful. I try to do all my mayor stuff. 01:05:59
I also prefer Tuesday if we can. 01:06:05
I'm good at Tuesday. 01:06:08
I could probably swing 4:30 on Tuesdays. 01:06:10
Is that 430 enough time? 01:06:14
Or maybe four staff. Will you riot against Ezra if he makes you stay late every Tuesday? 01:06:17
4 but then it's every other but we would. 01:06:24
We would do staffing first. 01:06:27
We compromise at 4, give us an hour of staff time and then we lead over for our discussions. We can 4:00. Is that reasonable? 01:06:30
Tuesdays, yeah. 01:06:37
OK, awesome. 01:06:38
OK, so. 01:06:41
Let's do a motion on this. 01:06:44
I moved to change the work meeting scheduled. 01:06:47
To every other. 01:06:50
Tuesday. 01:06:51
On the off weeks of City Council meetings starting the next. 01:06:53
City Council meeting. 01:06:57
The 19th to the 19th. May 19th. 01:06:58
Starting at 4:00 to start. Starting at 4 PM. 4:00 PM. 01:07:01
OK. And going. 01:07:04
That'll be the official calendar moving forward. 01:07:06
Awesome, do I have to be late next week? But. 01:07:09
That's kind of a second. 01:07:11
2nd. 01:07:14
OK, all in favor. 01:07:15
Aye, OK. 01:07:17
Aye. 01:07:19
OK, now we can. 01:07:20
Concludes City Council meeting. 01:07:21
I move to adjourn. 01:07:24
Move to adjourn. 01:07:25
And then we will start the RDA. Do we want to do how we feel in council? We want to give me 5 minutes, give me a 5 minute. 01:07:26
OK, Parker needs to use the restroom. 01:07:32
5 minute recess. 01:07:36
I appreciate it. 01:07:38
Functional. 01:07:40
Baby is good. 01:07:44

Event transcript
What else? 00:00:03
Yoga class. 00:00:04
It's basically covering our costs. 00:00:06
Book club would be kind of more of a social event, so it would include like a dinner. 00:00:09
As well included with it. So hopefully that answers all of your questions. But yes, there was a lot of research put into this we. 00:00:15
Line items. 00:00:20
Each program and how it would run. 00:00:22
And happy to answer any other questions you have if any. 00:00:26
OK. Thank you. 00:00:30
Awesome. 00:00:32
Any other public comments on the fee schedule? 00:00:33
OK, great. 00:00:37
All righty, we are going to jump now to the tentative, the public hearing for the Tentative 20262727 fiscal year budget. 00:00:38
We probably should go. Robin was just. 00:00:46
Should we go vote to go into this? 00:00:48
OK. All right. 00:00:51
I'm. 00:00:52
OK. Can I entertain a motion to enter into the public hearing for the tentative? 00:00:54
Budget. Umm. 00:00:58
So moved. 00:00:59
Do I have a second second. 00:01:00
All in favor. 00:01:01
Aye, aye. 00:01:02
Motion passes. OK, let's jump to Evan. Would you like to walk us through your presentation at this time? Just kind of. 00:01:05
Give it the high level. 00:01:11
And then? 00:01:12
Yeah, you bet. 00:01:13
Let me. 00:01:17
It's connected here real quick. 00:01:18
Is it the second one? We got it. 00:01:27
So this is the first draft of our tentative budget for the coming year. 00:01:40
Intended that this is finalized. Needs to be finalized by the end of June. 00:01:44
And I believe the 23rd of June is is when? 00:01:48
Intending to vote on that in that City Council. 00:01:52
So. 00:01:57
Want to walk through? 00:01:58
Each of the funds. 00:02:00
At a high level. 00:02:02
We'll go through each of the revenue areas for General Fund 1st and then expenses. 00:02:03
Most of these revenues we. 00:02:09
We forecast that are are increasing a bit. 00:02:11
There are a couple that we. 00:02:14
Have some downward pressure on the B&C roads because of the fuel tax. 00:02:17
Holiday that the. 00:02:22
The state is giving us. 00:02:23
As citizens for the first six months of. 00:02:25
Of this next fiscal year, we have that that, that revenue will decrease for us, for the city. 00:02:28
Building permits is down as well. 00:02:34
We've got 750,000 there for the coming year, whereas it was it was closer to 900,000 for this year. 00:02:37
But most everything else is. 00:02:43
Is popping up a little bit. 00:02:46
We still have good interest income and that is due to. 00:02:48
The grant that we have for the 1200 N Bridge. 00:02:53
That we haven't spent yet, and we'll spend. 00:02:56
Most of it in the coming year. 00:02:59
Sorry, the following year after this. 00:03:01
Can you turn up the? 00:03:05
Is that not loud enough? 00:03:06
We'll turn up the mic here. 00:03:07
Sorry I don't have a loud voice. 00:03:10
But I well. 00:03:13
Thanks, Robin. 00:03:14
My wife and kids would say otherwise. It's it's usually pretty. 00:03:15
You saw. Thank you for the feedback. 00:03:19
This is a. 00:03:25
Pie chart of all of our costs for the coming year. 00:03:26
Out of the general fund. 00:03:30
Largely, these percentages of the slice of pies haven't changed much from last year. 00:03:32
As you can see. 00:03:38
Public. 00:03:39
Public safety is our biggest expense. It's always been like that and. 00:03:41
And continues to be. 00:03:44
Been able to fund them. 00:03:47
Even better this coming year. 00:03:49
And the. 00:03:51
The majority of these other. 00:03:51
Apartments I've actually had a decrease. 00:03:53
For the coming year over what we budgeted for. 00:03:56
This current year. 00:03:59
So. 00:04:00
I'm trying to think if there's anything else. 00:04:04
Point out there. 00:04:07
But I don't want to click the slide. 00:04:10
Too quick as you. 00:04:12
Look through some of that. 00:04:14
The police. 00:04:17
There are a couple of things that are additive there and I should have brought my notes on that. 00:04:19
We have. 00:04:23
There are some additional cameras that they're adding or throughout the city. 00:04:25
And the name escapes me maybe. 00:04:30
Do you flock cameras? 00:04:32
And so we've got some. 00:04:35
I'm going to call them blind spots. You correct me, Sheriff, if I'm wrong. 00:04:37
And these will help to improve that. 00:04:40
Correct. 00:04:43
And there's also a rad. 00:04:45
Women program that we've. 00:04:47
Also added. 00:04:50
The fire department budget includes. 00:04:52
Three additional. 00:04:54
Fireman. 00:04:56
Fire. 00:04:57
Sorry. 00:04:58
And those are the big adds to the budget this year. 00:04:59
Capital projects. 00:05:06
This is our lengthy list. 00:05:08
I don't know if I want to walk through every one of these. 00:05:14
We've got. 00:05:17
Selected here so far there's 15,000 for a crosswalk there there's. 00:05:18
Some of these are smaller. 00:05:23
Dumpster enclosures that's rolled from the last year. 00:05:24
Design A. 00:05:29
Public safety master plan. 00:05:30
We're spending 60,000 on that. There's a. 00:05:33
A slide hill at Grove. 00:05:36
Park some of that. 00:05:37
A lot of that. 00:05:39
Has already been. 00:05:40
Bent actually, so we need to adjust that incoming versions. 00:05:41
What else do you want to highlight here? I want to highlight some of these. 00:05:47
Items that are coming in with a grant. 00:05:51
So I like the fish, so this one stood out to me. We've got a fish cleaning station that's coming in at Penny Springs Park for the 00:05:53
fishery that's. 00:05:57
Pending a grant from the Department of Natural Resources. 00:06:02

Flip the strip and all the tension basins and collector roads. 00:06:27
If somebody can chime in on that. 00:06:32
That comes from our. 00:06:34
Rhodes area. 00:06:37
Changing out from grass to. 00:06:42
Rocks, I'm sure. 00:06:45
Yeah. 00:06:46
All right. Some of the larger ones here, well, I'll just start at the top. We've got a. 00:06:49
A beach volleyball court at Lakefront Waterfront that. 00:06:54
That's also a grant rolled over from the prior year. 00:06:58

Now this is so we've got in here 500,000 to spend for designing the 1200 N overpass bridge. 00:07:28
This is where we had a grant for from 10 million. 00:07:35
Of $10 million from the state, we received that. 00:07:37
I don't know when, at least a year or two ago it was prior to me getting here and that's sitting in our account. 00:07:42
We've got. 00:07:47
Design spend on that this year. 00:07:48
And we've left the other 9.5 million. 00:07:51
Out to go in. 00:07:54
Next year's The following year's budget was when we'll. 00:07:55
That needs to be completed in 2028. 00:07:58
We've got a RAP tax allocation here of 20,000. 00:08:02
Arched Commission. 00:08:05
More bike park improvements. 00:08:08
The skate park is one that we've. 00:08:11
That was that's been. 00:08:14
Voted on. 00:08:16
Just in the last couple months, I guess. 00:08:18
But also pending a grant. 00:08:20
Those monies are coming the. 00:08:22
Wrap tax will cover the. 00:08:25
The piece that's not related to a grant. 00:08:27
Traffic signals are going in there 600 N main. 00:08:30
Right or north of Mill? 00:08:34
Significant expenditure there. 00:08:37

Pedestrian ramp updates. 00:08:43
Main Street and Center St. 75,000. 00:08:46
400 S roadway cost additional there's transport. 00:08:50
That's coming from transportation impact fees $100,000. 00:08:53
And these concrete aprons around hydrants? 00:08:58
Water fees. 00:09:01
60,000. 00:09:02
The next slide. All of these relate to. 00:09:04
The RDA. 00:09:08
And. 00:09:09
And I got one of them wrong. So I'm looking back at my next this first one that says it's 1.5 million. 00:09:12
They construct water line loop is actually. 00:09:18
Pushed out a couple of years. That's slated for fiscal year 28. 00:09:21
2029. 00:09:25
But this 1.5 million is. 00:09:27
For the Bend St. connection. 00:09:30
Reimbursement to flagship. 00:09:33
We've got 200,000. 00:09:37
To delineate. 00:09:38
Delineate. 00:09:39
Vineyard Wetlands. 00:09:40
There's 35,000 for developing as. 00:09:44
A strategic economic plan. 00:09:47
Beach improvements. 00:09:49
We've got. 00:09:52
Part of it's a grant. 00:09:54
3.372 million. 00:09:57
Design and construct restrooms and parking at the skate park. 00:10:01
I think that one isn't the RDA. 00:10:06
Sorry, I need to revise that that. 00:10:10
Does not have anything to do with the RDA. 00:10:12
The design Design. The rail spur realignment. 00:10:14
8.3 million. 00:10:18
Design and construct Vineyard connector promenade overpass 2.2 million. 00:10:20
Design and construct 400 N traffic signal. 00:10:25
625. 00:10:28
Construct. 00:10:30
Pedestrian Enhancements. 00:10:31
At South Main St. 00:10:33
55,006 million. 00:10:35
For our ongoing. 00:10:37
Environmental Remediation. 00:10:39
And there's 1.3 million for a lift station. 00:10:42
Lift station #4. 00:10:46
I went through those kind of quick but. 00:10:52
That. That's our big list of. 00:10:54
What's in there now for capital projects? 00:10:56
For our enterprise funds, this is a just a quick snapshot of the the water fund. 00:11:00
Operating revenue, we're forecasting a four point. 00:11:05
4 million operating expenses 3.4 million. 00:11:08
And this chart shows. 00:11:12
In blue, the operating revenues and expenses are in orange. 00:11:14
Over the last. 00:11:18
Several years. 00:11:19
So you can see the increase that we're. 00:11:21
We're projecting for next year. 00:11:23
Wastewater fund overview. 00:11:28
Or projecting 2.8 million. 00:11:31
And operating revenue, operating expenses. 00:11:34
Again, about 2.8 million. So that's relatively flat. 00:11:37
That we're forecasting for next year. 00:11:41
And the storm water. 00:11:44
We will have. 00:11:45
Operating revenue. 00:11:47
That isn't covered by operating expenses. 00:11:49
It's the general fund that covers the rest of that. 00:11:52
In the coming year. 00:11:57
Transportation Fund. 00:12:01
1.5 million in operating revenue. 00:12:03
So we're anticipating there. 00:12:06
Operating expenses 1.4. 00:12:08
A little under that. 00:12:10
60,000 under that. 00:12:11
So these operating expenses don't include. 00:12:13
The capital expenditures that are part of each of these each of these funds. 00:12:16
It's just the operating piece that gets pulled out here. 00:12:21
Our internal service fund overview. 00:12:27
The budget there is 1.7 million, that's a decrease of about 9%. 00:12:30
From uh. 00:12:34
From the current fiscal year budget. 00:12:35
That includes things like human resources, our fleet. 00:12:38
Management Facilities management. 00:12:41
All those internal services. 00:12:44
And you can see there some of the sources of revenue to fund the internal services and and those expenditures facilities fleet. 00:12:49
Information systems. 00:12:57
HR. 00:12:59
And those sources from the general fund, some of the enterprise funds as well. 00:13:01
And the RDA. 00:13:06
And that's our overview of this. 00:13:11
Current tentative budget. 00:13:14
Appreciate the good work my on. Thank you so much. I appreciate the good work on that. 00:13:16
Council is, as we've discussed many times. 00:13:21
This is the big lever that we can pull is we kind of want to get initiatives across through the city is the budget. So the intent 00:13:24
is that the majority of our our work sessions from now until. 00:13:29
June 23rd Evan, is that when we need to? 00:13:35
Get it? 00:13:37
Correct June, June 23rd. I really want to spend a lot of time with you guys, make sure everyone's. 00:13:39
Desires, concerns, everything, it heard. 00:13:44
On this because again, this is this is really the the tool that we use to to guide the city. 00:13:46
The council uses to guide the city. 00:13:51
We'll be working on this a ton, Evan. I worked on it. 00:13:54
We were working on it. 00:13:58
30 minutes ago So like it's it's a. 00:13:59
It's a working program. How would you describe this? 00:14:03
A work in progress. 00:14:07
Yeah, that's a nice way to say trying to land, going work in progress. Yeah, it will continue to evolve. 00:14:09
And until we go final on June 23rd. 00:14:15
So correct. 00:14:18
OK, can I? 00:14:20
Can I jump in? Yes please. My comments and public comment yes. 00:14:22
There was maybe some things that I don't think were shared very explicitly and I just wanted to make sure that this was. 00:14:26
Kind of put out in the open. 00:14:33
When I'm looking at this. 00:14:36
While the overall budget has grown. 00:14:39
Largely due to we have an increase in revenues, an increase of houses, increase of. 00:14:42
Things that are offered. 00:14:46
As a city. 00:14:47
The. 00:14:48
Surplus. 00:14:51
The surplus in this budget. 00:14:52
Is $1,000,000. 00:14:54
Roughly. 00:14:57
Which is an indicator to me that we are moving in a more solvent. 00:14:58
Direction. 00:15:01
Now something that I don't think. 00:15:03
Was expressed. 00:15:05
Additional to that. 00:15:06
Is that in this budget you include? 00:15:08
Roughly $7,000,000 in external funding. 00:15:11
So. 00:15:16
As I'm looking through the different line items of stuff that includes the grants, that includes things like. 00:15:17
Rebates. 00:15:23
And obviously all of that money is not coming. 00:15:25
This year. 00:15:27
And it's. 00:15:28
Largely due to some contingencies or I mean there's, there's contingent funding, there's reimbursement based funding. 00:15:29
Multi year rollover projects like I see all of those things in here. 00:15:37
I'm curious. 00:15:41
Because that is. 00:15:43
A huge portion of the overall budget. 00:15:44
I think. 00:15:48
The total on here is like 17.5 million or 17.7 million. That's like $7,000,000 in external funding. 00:15:48
Could you for a subsequent work session breakdown? 00:15:55
The capital projects list into. 00:15:59
What's being internally funded? 00:16:01
What's being externally funded and what the. 00:16:03
Grant funded or RDA funded amounts are. 00:16:05
Just for a more clear picture for the audience. 00:16:08
Yeah, you bet that's. 00:16:12
I like that, Yeah, Thank you. Because I. 00:16:14
You know, if we look at. 00:16:17
Last year's budget. 00:16:19
15 and a half million dollars. 00:16:20
To this year's budget, you see the. 00:16:22
$2,000,000 increase in spend. 00:16:25
But that's also accounting for. 00:16:27
A huge portion of money that's coming from. 00:16:29
External to the city. So our internal spend I think is actually reduced. 00:16:32
In addition to that, you have. 00:16:37
A greater surplus this year? 00:16:39
So I just wanted to say I. 00:16:41
Am very grateful for the work that the department heads have have put in on this to try and meet the. 00:16:44
Council's vision and goal for this. 00:16:50
As well as a special thank you to Evan for for working so diligently on this. Thank you guys. 00:16:52
Yes, thank you. 00:16:57
All right, we're going to turn over to public comment. Is anyone like to comment on this? 00:16:59
Please Daria, come up and. 00:17:04
Be great. 00:17:07
Good evening Daria Evans, a Villas resident. 00:17:17
I just have a couple of questions about this. 00:17:20
Budget. I'd like to know what is the Rad Newman project? 00:17:24
That you mentioned. 00:17:28
And I have another question. 00:17:30
Will concrete aprons go around every fire hydrant in the city? 00:17:32
And the design construct for 400 N. 00:17:37
That is 400 N part of the RDA. 00:17:43
I'm just curious about that because I didn't know that it was if it is. 00:17:46
And also Vineyard Beach grant. 00:17:50
That expired in April 2026. 00:17:53
So I'm wondering, did you reapply for that Vineyard Beach Improvement grant? 00:17:56
Thank you. 00:17:59
Concrete 400 OK, let me jump into this. 00:18:00
Anybody else? 00:18:05
OK, come on down, Karen. 00:18:07
Karen Cornelius Villas resident. 00:18:22
My questions. 00:18:25
Pertain to the page the RDA page that came up. 00:18:26
My questions pertain to the RDA page that came up. 00:18:29
And I don't see. 00:18:32
Time for public? 00:18:34
Comment in the RDA meeting so I wanted to ask now. 00:18:36
I'm just curious. 00:18:39
After living here. 00:18:41
For 4 1/2 years. 00:18:43
I'm beginning. 00:18:45
Beginning and. 00:18:47
In a very miniscule way. 00:18:49
To have an understanding of the RDA. 00:18:51
But my question is. 00:18:54
How can we property owners in Vineyard? 00:18:57
Get a balance sheet of the RDA. 00:19:01
What is outstanding? What have we paid? What have we brought in? 00:19:04
And where is the capital funding going to come from to repay the bonds on the area? 00:19:08
So basically I want to know where we sit. 00:19:13
With that. 00:19:16
Because my property hinges on. 00:19:17
The answer to that question? 00:19:20
And I think that that is only fair for all of Vineyard to know and understand that. 00:19:22
So there are a lot of things up there that we plan on paying. 00:19:27
But I really. 00:19:30
Just like with our budgets at home, I don't want to. 00:19:32
Pay for something when we have no idea where we are. 00:19:34
So I would like to see. 00:19:38
That maybe we could step back a little bit. 00:19:40
And assess the RDA. 00:19:43
So that we. 00:19:46
Who have invested? 00:19:47
In this town. 00:19:48
Can know if our property? 00:19:50
Property, uh. 00:19:51
Is going to maintain its value or if we are sunk. 00:19:54
And I don't think that that's an unreasonable question for a citizen in a Tehran so. 00:19:57
Thanks. And I really would like to know how do we see that? 00:20:02
How do we see? How do we know what's encumbered? 00:20:05
How do we know how much the bonds are? 00:20:08
How do we know? 00:20:10
What's coming in to pay those bonds? 00:20:11
So that's just my. 00:20:13
Tiny understanding, but it's growing. 00:20:16
So thanks. Thank you, Karen. 00:20:18
Nathan, did you have one as well? 00:20:21
Sounds good. 00:20:25
OK, this is Nathan still again. 00:20:27
I noticed that this got published on the website. 00:20:30
Prior to Wednesday of last week. That's awesome. I appreciate this getting uploaded earlier so that we can have more time digging 00:20:34
into this. 00:20:38
As I've been going through it the last few days though, I did have some thoughts I'm. 00:20:42
Really grateful that this is one of many. 00:20:46
Public workshops, public hearings that will be held before any of this is finalized. So. 00:20:49
I'll just dig into some of the. 00:20:55
Early. 00:20:57
Items that I found, do you? 00:20:58
Do you have those on your phone? 00:21:00
I can e-mail them over. Thank you so much. 00:21:02
Don't need to take notes. I'm happy. I'm happy to e-mail them over, so go ahead. 00:21:04
OK, so first when it comes to. 00:21:07
The operating surplus that Parker mentioned. 00:21:11
The budget projects a surplus of 1.195 million. 00:21:14
Dollars as an operating surplus. 00:21:18
But noticed it also draws 950,000. 00:21:20
Just from a. 00:21:24
A prior year fund balance. So that means that the city's true operational surplus, which is just. 00:21:25
Revenues generated. 00:21:31
Versus expenditures without dipping into savings? 00:21:33
Is 245,000. 00:21:36
So. 00:21:38
I am curious about the methodology on. 00:21:39
Why the city is drawing down? 00:21:42
Almost $1,000,000 from reserves. 00:21:45
And year when they're. 00:21:48
Adding. 00:21:49
To reserves. 00:21:50
By. 00:21:51
Just over. 00:21:53
200 over that amount. Just want to understand the methodology behind that. 00:21:54
Especially when revenues are growing by 11%. 00:21:59
And is that surplus being? 00:22:04
Presented. 00:22:06
With some kind of context, I just need to better understand the reasoning behind that. 00:22:07
It was odd to me. 00:22:12
Second, taking a look at all of the full time salaries. 00:22:14
I noticed that the mayor and council full time salaries are increasing. 00:22:17
By over 30% for full time and part time by 15%. That's 20% overall for the mayor and council organization. Yeah, thanks for 00:22:22
bringing that up. That was a fat finger, so. 00:22:28
It's not. Yeah. Again, just wanted to understand the context behind my apologies. Like I said, we've been working on this up to. 00:22:35
15 AM. 00:22:42
Yeah, but you're good fat fingered it. 00:22:42
Are bad. Thank you good got just want to understand. 00:22:44
Where? Where our compensation studies? 00:22:47
Taken for not just the salaries in that or code. 00:22:50
Admittedly doesn't look great, but also. 00:22:54
Other organization codes. 00:22:57
Where compensation studies performed. 00:22:59
In the same budget, we see full-time salaries. 00:23:03
Cut in the city manager communications. 00:23:05
Planning. 00:23:08
Cut by 39 percent 55% Forty, 8% special events. 00:23:09
Eliminated almost entirely. 00:23:13
Is there anywhere on this budget? 00:23:15
I didn't see it where the number of FTE positions. 00:23:17
Are identified. 00:23:21
Full time equivalent positions I think. 00:23:22
Some context. 00:23:26
Into why those adjustments happened and also who absor. 00:23:27
The workload. 00:23:32
If there is an absorption of the workload, that context would be helpful for the public as well As for the organization. 00:23:33
Especially. 00:23:40
Given that the Planning Department budget is being cut by 42%. 00:23:41
Which includes an 87% reduction in. 00:23:45
Software, Uh. 00:23:48
And professional subscriptions. 00:23:49
I was just at a. 00:23:52
Special meeting this morning that says that the Orem Provo metro area is projected to grow by over 18,000 residents every year for 00:23:54
the next 5 years. That directly impacts. 00:23:59
Vineyard. 00:24:04
Just want to understand the cities justification for cutting planning as much as it did. 00:24:06
When the area is going to be impacted significantly over these next few years? 00:24:10
Again. 00:24:16
Context. 00:24:16
Some kind of narrative narrative that explains these decisions would be helpful. 00:24:17
When it comes to grant revenue? 00:24:24
It jumps from zero. 00:24:26
To 773,000. 00:24:28
In this budget, we touched on the grants a bit now, but. 00:24:30
Again, context would be helpful to see. 00:24:35
What's been awarded? 00:24:38
What's been contracted? 00:24:39
Or if these are just projections? If they're just projections, is it appropriate to put in a budget or not? 00:24:41
Again. 00:24:48
A narrative. 00:24:48
That explains the process goes a long way with that. 00:24:49
Regarding the police contract and equipment. 00:24:53
This is just. 00:24:55
The OCD accounting in me if the police contract service line is increased by 15%. 00:24:56
And it's only in the line item that says contract services. I understand that includes the new programs that you mentioned and the 00:25:03
Flock cameras. 00:25:06
Curious if the city will own that equipment or if that will be owned. 00:25:10
By another agency. 00:25:14
And if it is the city, that's. 00:25:16
Owned it. Have we put it into an asset management plan? 00:25:18
Shouldn't that be more coded to equipment rather than contract services? 00:25:22
Again. 00:25:26
The narrative explaining what the new equipment would look like. 00:25:26
Helps. 00:25:29
Understand those questions so we can make sure it's covered appropriately in the city books. 00:25:30
Given the cities we talked about. 00:25:37
The salary changes and. 00:25:39
What looks like FTE changes. 00:25:42
That's it's a pretty significant. 00:25:44
Change in just organization. 00:25:46
Given the city's significant debt obligations, including about 6.7 million. 00:25:49
In the RDA debt service alone. 00:25:54
Has the city's bond advisor. 00:25:57
Been consulted. 00:25:59
And are they aware regarding all the proposed staffing changes? Because staffing changes have a direct reflection on the bond 00:26:01
rating? 00:26:04
Of an agency. 00:26:08
And so I think that's worth addressing as well. 00:26:10
Even if we don't have a plan to issue any new bonds or get any new debt. 00:26:14
I'm not planning to get a new credit card, but I still care about my credit score. It's. 00:26:19
We want to make sure we're still maintaining as strong a bond rating as possible, and that was a red flag for me. 00:26:23
Yeah, I just want to. 00:26:33
Double down on the importance of transparency. 00:26:34
Particularly when it comes to. 00:26:38
Publishing these an agenda. 00:26:40
Having an accompanying staff report. 00:26:42
Would go a long way. 00:26:45
In just helping to understand. 00:26:47
The process, even if it's this, is the first of many work sessions. We don't have a lot of details yet. Something that explains 00:26:49
that process would go a very long way. 00:26:53
Awesome. Yes, happy to e-mail all that over. Appreciate it. 00:26:57
OK. Thank you. Anybody else? 00:27:00
OK, seeing none. Thank you, Nathan. 00:27:03
We will. 00:27:08
I will entertain a motion to leave the public hearing. 00:27:10
Forward this. 00:27:14
So moved. Awesome. 00:27:18
Do I have a second, second all in favor? 00:27:20
Aye, OK. Motion passes. Thank you. 00:27:23
All right, we got some consent items here. 00:27:25
We have 7.1. 00:27:29
Do we do we need to pass? 00:27:31
This and the we're going to do that. We've received it. 00:27:34
That is, we're going to get the action item. 00:27:39
Down. 00:27:42
#10 and 10.1. 00:27:43
All right, so we got some consent items 7.1 approval of April 20. 00:27:45
To 2026 City Council minutes. 00:27:49
7.2 Approval of May 5th. 00:27:52
2026 City Council minutes and 7.3 approval of Central Utah Water Conservancy District CWP water supply. 00:27:55
Agreement and takedown schedule. 00:28:03
Do anyone? 00:28:06
Do we want to peel? Does anyone want to peel any of these off of here? 00:28:07
OK, I want to hear 7.3 again. 00:28:13
OK, just kidding. No, I'm kidding. That was a great presentation of the work session. Thank you. 00:28:16
Awesome. Thank you. 00:28:20
All right. 00:28:22
Motion to. 00:28:24
Approve these consent. 00:28:26
OK, do I have a second? 00:28:27
2nd. 00:28:28
Awesome. 00:28:29
All in favor. 00:28:30
Aye, aye. 00:28:31
OK. Motion passes. Thank you. 00:28:32
OK, we're going to jump to #8 public, regular public comments. 00:28:34
If anyone would like to have. 00:28:38
And lots of public comments today. 00:28:40
Anybody else would like to go? 00:28:44
Come on down, Daria. 00:28:45
So. 00:28:49
Yeah. 00:28:52
Daria Evans, Villa's Vineyard resident. 00:28:59
I just would like to make a comment. 00:29:03
That I hope that future city amenities are unencumbered by developer taxes before they become city properties. 00:29:07
I think you know what I'm talking about. 00:29:14
And also will. 00:29:16
Our questions from. 00:29:19
The previous public hearing be answered tonight. 00:29:21
Thank you. 00:29:24
Yeah. What question, Daria, do you have? What questions? 00:29:32
Do we have that are going unanswered? 00:29:37
Here another. 00:29:39
Oh yes, OK, yes, I thought it would be last week. 00:29:41
I was like. 00:29:45
OK. 00:29:46
And Josh, let's get with. 00:29:47
Those are mostly to come to him and then I have some information on the sunset. 00:29:49
Speech I can give you the. 00:29:54
Their load on that. Can we have Josh answer maybe? 00:29:55
Karen's question about the balance sheet, would that be possible? 00:29:59
What's the fence for women? 00:30:02
We're in the RDA meeting. 00:30:04
Let's yeah, we'll do that. I was thinking, I was thinking, we'll do that in the RDA, mate. Is that OK, Karen? 00:30:06
OK, that was my thought when you're talking, so OK. 00:30:10
Great. All right. 00:30:13
Any other public comments? We could answer one of them, which was the grant requirement. I believe that you're required to show 00:30:15
the grants. 00:30:19
In the budget, even though they come or not, you have to list them out. 00:30:24
By state law, is that why they're included in the annual budget? Because if you're. 00:30:28
If you don't list them in the budget, therefore you can't then spend it. 00:30:32
And when they come in? 00:30:35
I think. I think that's what was explained to me. 00:30:37
They're included since we have the. 00:30:40
The expenditure side of it, right? 00:30:42
So if they don't come in, then we would come in and vote to remove them from the budget. 00:30:44
Correct. We won't. We won't spend. 00:30:49
Against those online items if the grants don't come in. 00:30:51
So, and the good works on that is, is you're being transparent with the citizens of. 00:30:54
If the money comes in, we're telling you now that this is how we're going to spend it. But if the money doesn't come in. 00:30:59
Then we would come and adjust it. So I just wanted to answer that question. 00:31:05
OK, awesome. 00:31:08
And I can answer the other one, the the Rad Women program. 00:31:11
It's stands for Rape Aggression defense, so it's for. 00:31:14
Helping women. 00:31:19
Defend themselves in sexual assault cases. 00:31:21
And the chief is online. 00:31:24
In case he's needed OK like. 00:31:26
Awesome. 00:31:32
OK, great. 00:31:34
All righty, any other public comments? 00:31:37
Come on down, Sir. 00:31:40
Hi, Mayor and City Council. 00:31:43
Grateful to be here. 00:31:46
Just a couple of could you state your name for the record? 00:31:47
Dennis Frank in the Cascade neighborhood. 00:31:50
We have a. 00:31:52
Path that we normally take our walks on over the wetlands that is closed. 00:31:54
Don't know what it's? Well, there's some issues that need to be addressed there. 00:32:00
But I'm sure that there is going to be a lot of people that will want to cross that path for our Vineyard days. 00:32:05
If it's not corrected by then you're going to see all sorts of people. There's already people that we see going across. 00:32:12
The wetlands on that path. 00:32:18
Even though it says closed. 00:32:20
Plastic won't keep people away. Yeah, for sure. As well as the slide heel. There's plastic around that. If you go by there, 00:32:24
there's all sorts of footprints down on the slides. They're already going down those slides. 00:32:30
The only if you don't open that up for. 00:32:37
Vineyard days, you'll have to put the sheriff's. 00:32:40
Communication vehicle right in front of that salute. 00:32:44
Yeah, they can monitor that. 00:32:48
Also in the. 00:32:52
Wetlands on the east side by the housing there, there's a whole. 00:32:53
Row of Russian olives that are there. 00:32:58
The regular maintenance. 00:33:01
They don't. 00:33:02
Get close enough to those. 00:33:03
Trees and there's always, every year or every other year, we've got to get in there and. 00:33:06
Manually take down all the. 00:33:12
Overgrowth that happens down there for fire prevention and everything else. 00:33:15
But it looked like yesterday when we walked the path. 00:33:20
That somebody got closer. I don't know if it was the city. 00:33:24
That went and got closer to that. 00:33:27
But yeah, it would be would be nice if maintenance. 00:33:30
Got done a little. 00:33:36
That it's maintained better along that way. 00:33:38
And also the issue with the slide heel on the slide side, there are some steep. 00:33:41
Areas there that. 00:33:47
It's going to turn into weeds unless maintenance does some hand mowing or some. 00:33:48
Weed whacking along some of those areas that were. 00:33:54
Probably should have been. 00:33:58
The the fake grass going in there, what they call that? 00:34:00
Artificial. 00:34:05
Artificial grass. They put some artificial grass, you know, right around the two sides, but there's a lot of steep areas there 00:34:06
that. 00:34:09
I'm sure that the maintenance if they can't ride. 00:34:13
On that hill. 00:34:16
They won't know it. 00:34:17
Thank you. 00:34:19
Thanks, Dennis. 00:34:21
Great. Anybody else with public comments? 00:34:22
OK, great. 00:34:27
Umm. 00:34:30
A lot of those questions. 00:34:32
Were directed. What is that your stuff, Brian? 00:34:33
Yeah, OK. Do you just want to sync with him? 00:34:36
So we can. Awesome. Sounds good. 00:34:39
OK. Thanks guys. 00:34:41
OK, All right. In seeing no other public comments. 00:34:43
We are going to move now. 00:34:46
Two, let's see what we got here. 00:34:48
To our general business items 9.1. 00:34:51
Vineyard Cities floodplain regulation update. 00:34:54
Is, is that who, who's presenting? Is that the same? OK, great. 00:34:57
Turn the time over to this seam. 00:35:02
All right, so this is the best part about the meeting. So please, I expect everyone not to leave. 00:35:08
All right, sweet. OK, so. 00:35:15
This presentation is about the Floodplain Regulation update. I have in parentheses National Flood Insurance Program compliance. So 00:35:17
the main emphasis is in regards to the compliance to the National Flood Insurance Program. 00:35:23
So we are this is in regards to ordinance that's in draft mode that. 00:35:30
Is going to be presented to City Council. 00:35:36
And June so and to be in effect. 00:35:39
So in short, this is serving as a public. 00:35:43
Kind of public inputs, public hearing. 00:35:47
The social social media has been posted. 00:35:49
With this information as well so. 00:35:51
I will go through this assuming that many people in the public have not. 00:35:55
Or who intents have not seen this and. 00:36:00
100% I am happy to stay back and answer specific questions for anyone, whether council or any members of the public, and members 00:36:03
of the public are encouraged to submit comments online as well. 00:36:09
So I just want to recognize Justine Marshall, certified Floodplain manager as well for doing a lot of the legwork to end game is 00:36:15
put together. 00:36:19
So the purpose of this is required to stay compliant with FEMA and the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the National flood. 00:36:24
Assurance Program. 00:36:32
Bottom line, if you're not in compliant then we do not qualify for many necessary programs. Not just a city but residence itself, 00:36:34
but keeps the city eligible for the flood insurance. 00:36:38
As a whole, not just the city. 00:36:43
Like as a proper government agency, but city is residents. 00:36:46
We're also eligible for federal disaster funding. 00:36:50
As well as grants as well. And as we previously talked about grant, grant spending, grant money is a great. 00:36:54
Is a great way to spend money. 00:37:00
But more importantly, it does protect public safety, ensure our property and of course the ability for insurance. 00:37:03
So what is a flood, you may ask? 00:37:09
Of course. 00:37:11
This is actually a very important question and very something very important for people to understand myself having done a 00:37:13
forensic. 00:37:16
Engineering. 00:37:21
Cases in regards to water intrusion. 00:37:22
Most of the times, specifically insurance companies and so forth, they want to know. 00:37:25
Did the water, the cause of the water come because of a flood or not because of a flood? 00:37:30
And so understanding what the definition. 00:37:35
Not anybody that anybody's definition, but the federal government's definition of a flood. 00:37:38
So just outline that this is information that was not presented the last Planning Commission. 00:37:43
I felt it was important. 00:37:48
Caused by our overflows of rivers, lakes and tidal waves. 00:37:50
It is it is can be considered as accumulation of surface water, so. 00:37:55
Oftentimes they. 00:38:00
The cause causation of for flooding is where did the water come from? Did they come from the surface or do they come from under? 00:38:01
From the sky or they come from underneath. 00:38:07
So that is very important to understand. 00:38:10
It can be. 00:38:12
Mud flows. That's caused by flooding. 00:38:14
It could be debris that's caused by flooding. 00:38:17
You know, water itself. Or it can just be your typical. 00:38:19
Water flood. 00:38:22
As well. 00:38:23
So the purpose, the main purpose of this is to define the conditions that are eligible for FEMA and also the National Flood 00:38:25
Insurance Program. 00:38:29
In terms of if someone puts a claim against a property that's been damaged by flood, this is how. 00:38:34
This is considered. 00:38:39
What does floodplain management you may also ask? Well, floodplain management is the regulations to guide development and flood. 00:38:42
Prone areas because. 00:38:48
In essence, it's really comes down to. 00:38:50
Now the government not so much telling people what to do with properties, but trying to provide guidance in terms, in terms of. 00:38:53
How to keep? 00:39:01
People properly. 00:39:03
And of course. 00:39:04
Insurance safe? 00:39:06
It helps reducing flood risk. 00:39:08
Protecting structures and helping managing long term growth. 00:39:10
On that. 00:39:14
The one item on there is about protecting the public. 00:39:16
Costs on that. Having come from Florida, some people may wonder where I came from. I came from Florida, where floods. 00:39:20
Prevail. 00:39:29
Frequent. There we go. 00:39:31
I won't use big words today. 00:39:32
But and you guys repetitive flooding in areas. 00:39:34
That does cost. 00:39:38
Government's money because in essence, because this loss of value. So not only is property values going down. 00:39:40
AKA property taxes. 00:39:46
But oftentimes you'll find that governments and the. 00:39:48
Purchasing the properties that have prepared the flooding. 00:39:52
In order to prevent from. 00:39:55
For future. 00:39:57
Loss of. 00:39:58
Life. 00:39:59
Property as well. 00:40:01
What this is not, this is not an emergency preparedness in the response. So this ordinance does not focus on emergency 00:40:04
preparedness. 00:40:07
Nor does it focus on emergency responses. 00:40:10
Specifically about floodplain management. 00:40:13
So if you come to me and I say I am managing the flood. 00:40:15
Plane, I am not managing the preparedness, I am not managing response so. 00:40:18
How useful am I? I hope I am very useful because. 00:40:23
Minimizes our preparedness needs and our response needs. 00:40:27
However, there are resources out there such as Be Ready Utah. 00:40:30
As you can see with the. 00:40:35
Awesome V. But more importantly, Utah County Sheriff's Office our contract with the Sheriff's Office. 00:40:36
Does provide Emergency Management, emergency response. My Boy Scout group had an awesome tour of the Utah County. 00:40:42
Emergency Management response. 00:40:50
Team and all their cool equipment and tours that they have out there. 00:40:53
It was probably the best part of the. 00:40:56
Boy Scouts. 00:40:58
Trips last year. 00:41:01
But they Vineyard City also has emergency preparedness evacuation maps as well as a plan on the website. 00:41:03
And of course, anyone who has questions about that, about this, they're free to contact the city AKA as well as the Sheriff's 00:41:10
Office. 00:41:14
What triggered this update? 00:41:20
People often wonder, well what triggered the update is. 00:41:22
New flood hazard analysis. 00:41:25
New FEMA data. 00:41:27
And then of course changes to like like levels, wave actions, flow, elevations. 00:41:28
Online with. 00:41:34
All this data is trying to do is trying to evaluate what's the new 1% chance. 00:41:36
Of flooding. 00:41:41
The AKA the 100 year flood. 00:41:42
And also the .2% of annual flooding chance, which is a 500 year flood. 00:41:44
You may say, hey, we just have flood last year, so we should be good for another 99 years. 00:41:49
Unfortunately, that is not true. 00:41:53
And my last life as a public Works director for City of Florida, I experienced 100 year flood three times in one year. 00:41:56
It was probably the best year of my life. 00:42:02
I did not get these in my analog. 00:42:08
I'm not so bad. I'm not so sad about that. 00:42:10
Vineyard specific update. So focusing specifically on Vineyard because that is why we're doing this ordinance. 00:42:13
We are looking at the Utah Lake Proxy. 00:42:19
Location risk. 00:42:22
On there. 00:42:24
In regards to flooding, the impacts that it has as well as we're looking at elevations. 00:42:26
Flood elevation so when Utah Lake goes up. 00:42:31
Not this year, but hopefully in the future years. 00:42:34
Due to. 00:42:36
Much better winter. 00:42:39
And then we also have lots of more rain. 00:42:40
Or, you know, we're, we're trying to determine. 00:42:43
Where? Where do structural elevations need to be? 00:42:45
Of course, what is this required to do? We're required to update our floodplain regulation. If we do not update our floodplain 00:42:48
regulation, we will not be in compliance. 00:42:52
So and that would be. 00:42:57
Listening to me. 00:43:01
Painful. 00:43:03
Or more painful. 00:43:04
We regulate is also to help regulate developments in these flood areas to say if you are going to develop an area that is 00:43:06
identified in the floodplain. 00:43:11
How can we do it safely? 00:43:15
And also about issuing permits, specific permits in order to do. 00:43:18
For people in floodplains. 00:43:23
Because we have to consider public safety. 00:43:24
Impacts and as well as compliance. 00:43:27
The most important thing on here, specifically for public input, is the proposed flood. 00:43:29
Map. 00:43:33
The flood the preliminary map is located on the Utah County GIS site is also located on the. 00:43:35
FEMA sites, however, the Utah County GIS site is. 00:43:42
Much, much. 00:43:45
Better and easier to use. 00:43:46
So that is the link that we provided. 00:43:48
To everyone. 00:43:50
And. 00:43:52
What the? 00:43:54
Current proposed map snapshot here I am. I do have it pulled up as a website and I'm happy to. 00:43:55
Go through it either during this presentation or after the presentation with anyone. 00:44:02
But bottom line, if we're a Vineyard city? 00:44:06
The areas that have been identified for flood hazard areas are along the Lakeshore. 00:44:09
Vineyard Beach, Linda Marina. Technically not in Veneer city but does impact Vineyard because. 00:44:15
We consider one of our own. 00:44:22
As well as parts of Lakeside power Plant. 00:44:23
On there so looking at this map. 00:44:26
That does show the flood areas. 00:44:28
The floodplain or excuse me, the flood map does not take into consideration what areas are developable, who owns the area? Areas 00:44:30
or could could be developed, it just identifies landmass and. 00:44:35
Areas of potential flooding. 00:44:42
And itself and this is. 00:44:44
Broken out into 100 year flood and 500 year flood. 00:44:46
On that. 00:44:49
I do have a link to the website on the bottom for anyone who's curious about the social media posts that we had. 00:44:51
Have up there for public comment. Does have a link to the website as well. 00:44:56
So most people ask. 00:45:00
So where are we getting out? Well, we're getting out to. 00:45:04
Ordinance update. 00:45:07
Or so we can say compliance compliant. 00:45:08
Compliant. There's two parts of the ordinance. One, the first part is development requirements. 00:45:10
And the second part, which is the slide after this talks more about enforcement, but? 00:45:15
What it does is it. 00:45:19
The first ordinance is going to be brought to the City Council on June 2nd. 00:45:23
As I was reminded, this is the first reading and then the second reading would be June. 00:45:28
23rd I believe. 00:45:33
As well. 00:45:37
For it to take to effect. 00:45:39
Well, this organ specifically aligns to the national flood. 00:45:41
Insurance program we work closely with. 00:45:45
The state of Utah. 00:45:48
Of Emergency Management. 00:45:50
Team. 00:45:52
As well as Utah County to ensure that. 00:45:53
The ordinance that we're representing is in alignment. 00:45:56
Adopts the FEMA flood map, which is going to be effective June 23, 2026. 00:46:00
So that's the federal maps, that's that's there the Utah County, the map on Utah County. 00:46:05
Is a reflection of what is being proposed to the federal government. 00:46:11
And then it requires floodplain development permits for any development and flood hazard areas. So if someone is. 00:46:15
Has piece of property and it has the flood zone identifying it. 00:46:20
Identified in it. 00:46:24
They can still move forward, however they have to move forward with. 00:46:25
Specific requirements. 00:46:29
The most basic 1 is that there are. 00:46:31
The floor of their structure has to be. 00:46:33
At least one foot above the base flood elevation. 00:46:35
Which means that. 00:46:39
If a flood happens, it's going to rise to ** mile feeder. 00:46:39
High and their structure has to be 1 feet above that. 00:46:43
On that, of course use flood resistant materials and utilities et cetera, et cetera. 00:46:48
Bomb we're trying to get out is to protect life. Life and property. 00:46:53
The second part of this ordinance is administrative enforcement it officially identifies. 00:46:59
The public works director. 00:47:04
AKA myself right now. 00:47:05
The sham said right now. But hopefully that doesn't change so. 00:47:07
AKA myself for a long time. 00:47:13
Or their designee. 00:47:15
As a floodplain administrator. 00:47:17
On that so it comes down to the official seller who has official say. 00:47:21
In terms of making decisions. 00:47:27
You know, with power comes great responsibility. So in essence, trying to ensure that the. 00:47:30
Public property. 00:47:36
Excuse me? 00:47:38
Life safety and. 00:47:41
Properties being. 00:47:43
Kept safe. It also puts a responsibility on the city to for reviewing. 00:47:45
Maintaining records. 00:47:50
And ensuring that we're coordinating with FEMA state agencies during the process. This is very not new. 00:47:51
However, it just does codify. 00:47:59
It to ensure that it's being followed. 00:48:02
It does have an enforcement tool. Part of it has a stop work orders. 00:48:04
Previously for stop work orders for safety and health. 00:48:10
We've worked with the billing department. 00:48:12
This provides some stop work orders specifically for. 00:48:14
Given to the public works. 00:48:18
In order to do so, it does carry a fine of $1000 a day. 00:48:19
A day or jail time for violations. 00:48:22
So my office is currently not big enough for. 00:48:25
To house. 00:48:28
So we are not anticipating putting in one jail. 00:48:29
It's a public process. 00:48:34
On this very important is outlined as. 00:48:35
Here on the slide. 00:48:39
The most important part of this is that the public. 00:48:40
Common process period ends on May 31st, 2026. 00:48:43
And then it will be taken to City Council. 00:48:48
First time on June 2nd and the second final time June 16th. So my first date was wrong. 00:48:50
On that. 00:48:56
And then the public can submit comments, attend meetings and speak in person. 00:48:58
Of course, they can speak here in public, or they can speak to any of us direct. 00:49:03
Specifically or. 00:49:07
They can go on the website and submit. 00:49:09
Their comments. 00:49:11
On here. 00:49:12
What were you hearing from the public? 00:49:13
Across Utah specifically, not just vineyards. 00:49:15
Is this maps hard to use? Yes, of course. It is a federal government tool so it is confusing. 00:49:18
However, the Utah County has done a great job developing A floodplain map that we provide a link for. 00:49:24
So we encourage everyone to use the Utah County map. 00:49:29
Do I have to get flood insurance? 00:49:33
The answer is it really depends on you if you're inside a flood area. 00:49:35
Yield people are required to get flood insurance because of their lender, not because of the city. 00:49:40
However, if you're not in a flood area, area. 00:49:45
You're still able to get flood insurance regardless on that, so it's not the city requiring it, it's typically lenders. 00:49:48
Who actually who actually own our homes? 00:49:56
Who requires? 00:49:58
Which map should I look at? 00:50:00
Well, we were asking everyone to to look at the update map. 00:50:02
Which is on the Utah County website which is effective June 23rd, 2026. 00:50:06
This uh. 00:50:10
This is going to be the map going forward, obviously, unless there's substantial changes in comments that. 00:50:12
That need to be addressed. 00:50:17
Why is this changing? Well, it's changing because we're getting better. 00:50:19
Excuse me? Better. 00:50:22
Data from them and better modeling in order to understand risk. 00:50:23
It's not increasing risk, it's better. It's us understanding it better. 00:50:28
And can the city fix this? 00:50:32
Public works can fix a lot of things, but we cannot fix. 00:50:34
Maps. 00:50:37
When they're on this but. 00:50:38
This really affects the real world risk. 00:50:40
The risk does not go away, however. Regulations are based on risk. 00:50:43
And, umm. 00:50:47
What we're trying to do is trying to minimize risk. 00:50:48
To not just the city, but to homeowners. 00:50:51
Again, what does this mean to Vineyard? 00:50:55
Here's a map. This is not any This is not any development site plan here in Vineyard. Is just an arbitrary map found on the 00:50:57
Internet kind of showing. 00:51:01
Showing where Like a floodplain. 00:51:05
Elevation, like the flood elevation, overlaps with a proposed development and. 00:51:08
Some in a made-up city. 00:51:12
It doesn't mean that people that people cannot develop in the floodplain, it just means that all those areas within the 00:51:14
floodplain. 00:51:17
Area is. 00:51:21
Being developed to a much higher standard in order to ensure that. 00:51:23
Those structures are being protected. 00:51:26
Again, not all properties are. 00:51:29
All right, So this is the most important part of the presentation because it's the end of the presentation. 00:51:34
So whether the takeaways, the takeaways are about the impacts of the city. 00:51:39
What we're trying to do is protect infrastructure investments. 00:51:43
Share continued access to flood insurance for. 00:51:46
For the residents of the city. 00:51:49
Provides clear regulation framework. 00:51:52
That's aligned to state and federal. 00:51:55
Regulations and requirements. 00:51:57
It shifts risk mitigation to upfront design. 00:51:59
In construction rather than post-disaster cost which? 00:52:02
Is very caught, much as much more costly. 00:52:05
And whatever. 00:52:09
Planning on doing is adopted adapting this new ordinance, keeping the city in good standing with the National Flood Insurance 00:52:11
Program, reducing long term financial and safety risks. 00:52:15
And, of course, establishing clear and enforceable development standards. 00:52:19
That is the end of my presentations. 00:52:24
Presentation. Is there any questions? I feel like we should give a round of applause. 00:52:26
OK. 00:52:33
Awesome. 00:52:35
OK. 00:52:35
Council, let's move to discussion on this. 00:52:37
Item can I we ask questions Yes, please. Let's let's do that go ahead I. 00:52:40
Parkerman, Parker. So 2 questions and one of them I think is is partially addressed. I just wanted to clarify. 00:52:46
So the changes to this ordinance, are they all purely compliance driven? 00:52:53
Or are we, as a city, adding any additional local regulatory standard to them? 00:52:58
So that's a great question. So this whole. 00:53:04
The ordinance is. 00:53:07
In essence, A framework aligned with the state it's. 00:53:09
All compliance driven. 00:53:13
There's very little changes that the city chose to take such as example, some cities do have a floodplain manager. 00:53:14
Specific. Specific. 00:53:21
Position. 00:53:23
My last city in Florida, we have floodplain managers, so the floodplain manager was identified. 00:53:24
Here in Veneer City. 00:53:29
We we identify the. 00:53:30
Public Works Director. 00:53:32
As the flood plate manager. 00:53:34
In itself so. 00:53:36
The only changes that we did was more administrative on how the process works. 00:53:38
Which really is minimal changes in comparison to how it works. 00:53:41
The fines that there are. 00:53:46
That were shown in jail time. 00:53:48
Are compliance driven or not city driven? 00:53:49
So we could not change the fines or not say we're not giving jail time, I guess. 00:53:53
OK, now I have 3 questions. 00:53:58
Speaking of the enforcement. 00:54:00
Piece and the fines that were presented on. 00:54:02
What are those in? 00:54:05
Regards to are those those are fines specifically for developers who don't develop to the standard now being outlined. 00:54:06
Yes, Sir. So for example, and we haven't had this here and there we go. So we haven't had this here in Venuta and it's very seldom 00:54:13
happens in Utah State, in the state of Utah as a general. 00:54:19
However, in areas that have a lot of. 00:54:26
Have more areas of flood? 00:54:29
Flooding occurrences. 00:54:31
If someone go if a person. 00:54:34
Develops their property. 00:54:37
And is changing the flood. 00:54:39
Plane mapping. 00:54:41
In essence, building a levy or changing the direction of flow and so forth, and it starts to impact their property owner. 00:54:43
Typically it would just be a civil lawsuit between. 00:54:50
Individuals. 00:54:53
And what this would be able to do is allow the city to start putting a. 00:54:54
Enforcement, compliance and fine driven. 00:54:59
Into it as an example, so. 00:55:01
Mostly. Mostly these are. 00:55:05
Enforcements are driven towards. 00:55:09
People who are non compliance that are. 00:55:11
Developing without permits. 00:55:13
And developing or doing something that would cause adverse. 00:55:14
Conditions to their adjacent property owners. 00:55:19
OK. And then my last question. 00:55:21
To your knowledge, is there any material? 00:55:24
Cost or expense that residents or the city incur by adopting this. 00:55:27
No, there's not any. 00:55:32
So the. 00:55:34
This and I probably should have. 00:55:35
I should probably should have stressed this portion out. 00:55:39
But it does not impact. 00:55:42
Existing homes. There we go. 00:55:44
So the public impact is is for new building requirements. 00:55:46
For new building permits, it does not impact existing. 00:55:49
Homes and existing permits. 00:55:52
Itself. 00:55:54
However, that does not say that if someone gets insurance company switches insurance companies from insurance company AT insurance 00:55:56
Company B. 00:56:00
Insurance company may require additional. 00:56:04
Changes. 00:56:07
On certain things, but. 00:56:09
Then again. 00:56:11
That's a more of a problem. For example roofs. 00:56:13
As an as an example, I know I'm facing. 00:56:17
In order to relieve my insurance, I have to put a new roof on my house. 00:56:22
As an example. 00:56:25
But this does not impact any any persons existing properties. 00:56:27
Or existing structures. Thank you. 00:56:32
OK. Questions or comments, Counsel Jake. 00:56:34
Go ahead, let the record show that Councilman. 00:56:37
Mccumber lives on the shores. 00:56:40
So I just want to make sure. 00:56:43
The floodplain, he's concerned, Yeah. And again, I am more concerned about liquefaction and my house sinking into the lake. Yeah. 00:56:44
OK. Yeah. Just wanted to make sure. Like he's the only one asking questions. We're fine. Did we get that concern for the record? 00:56:52
Yeah, we want to make sure we'll put that on the record. OK. 00:56:57
The second thing The second thing though, is is. 00:57:02
With this state mandate. 00:57:05
This is 20 years ago, but the state actually. 00:57:07
Had modeling. 00:57:10
Around the break in Deer Creek. 00:57:12
Or. 00:57:15
Strawberry or Jordanelle did any of ledgers? 00:57:17
Literature come down from the state. 00:57:20
In new modeling for those I know, they've redone Deer Creek, so it's been many years since they did that, but there used to be a 00:57:22
big concern. 00:57:26
And there would be things that come. 00:57:29
Came out of the state for that. That would show. 00:57:31
The effect of Vineyard. 00:57:34
Yeah, if it were to break. 00:57:36
So. 00:57:39
And we're actually working with the county in terms of our risk management plan. 00:57:42
In terms of and where the county is, we met with them. 00:57:47
Really two weeks ago where they're going through all it's and it's also in conjunction with Mountain Association of Governments, 00:57:50
right? So the Youth County and Mountain Association of Governments is putting together a risk management maps in order to 00:57:55
determine. 00:57:59
Infrastructure that are. 00:58:04
Being identified as high risk or if it if a. 00:58:06
XYZ disaster occurred. As you can see the Utah County map is a hazard map has earthquakes, flood. 00:58:10
Landslides. Rock falls. 00:58:17
Et cetera and. 00:58:19
This will identify. 00:58:22
Hazards that are at being in high risk areas. 00:58:23
Around Winter City as a whole, so that's currently being done. 00:58:28
And just for on the damn tab, there's one that shows the dam break. 00:58:31
Oh, is there one on there on that? Yeah, there we go. 00:58:35
Yep. Hang on, Utah County's map is did your iOS map, they've done a lot with their GIS system and right, and that's what I wanted 00:58:39
to show because it doesn't show most of Vineyard, right. If you zoom in, I don't think it really just Parker Styles. 00:58:45
Parker's house is pretty screwed, no? Yeah, he's done. Follows the Provo River, right? So it misses us. 00:58:52
Well, and that's what I wanted to show people. When we put it out of the social media, people had a lot of questions and I was 00:58:57
like. 00:59:00
Actually, the Bay, Provo Bay in and in the Lehigh is our highest. 00:59:03
Vineyard would. And I just wanted to make sure it was on the record that. 00:59:07
Largely skips. You'd have to have a catastrophic. 00:59:10
Is that all three breaking or is that just one of the three? 00:59:14
You know, at least 2. Is it 2? OK, well. 00:59:18
Yeah, and it also. 00:59:22
You would also have to have them hit at the same time. 00:59:24
The modeling that they had, and this is 20 years ago, but I I would love that an updated model just to make sure nothing's 00:59:28
changed. 00:59:30
Yeah. So citizens know, Yeah, this, this, this is available. So the link that we have on the website actually takes you through 00:59:33
this website. 00:59:36
OK. So residents are able to access, not just we're asking them specifically for a flood? 00:59:39
Inputs, but they are able to access all the different types of hazards that Utah County has mapped out. 00:59:44
Yeah, click the quick one. 00:59:48
Right. I just make sure people know because this is the earthquake one. Other comments or questions from council regarding this? 00:59:50
No. 00:59:53
OK. But yeah, I consider is also the ALFAC Alf factor. So everyone plugs in their hair dryers at the same time. The world does 00:59:57
explode. So hopefully there we go. 01:00:01
Yeah. So hopefully that's that's something like that happens is very low. 01:00:05
Yeah, OK, great. 01:00:09
OK. Thank you for your hard work on this team. That was a big presentation. Appreciate that, you and your team. 01:00:11
Don't lie together. Thank you guys, you're awesome. 01:00:16
OK, let's jump down to. 01:00:19
Any other discussion from Council on that? 01:00:21
OK, hearing none, let's jump to action items 10.1. 01:00:23
So 10.1 is approved the updated consolidated fee schedule. My thought was like I. 01:00:27
Touch earlier in the meeting is we chunk out. 01:00:32
We have 6 meetings between now and or we have their six weeks between now and when we need to go live with this. 01:00:34
June 23rd I really would like to make sure that staff has opportunities to get in front of us with their priorities. Council can 01:00:39
hear them, listen to them and make sure that we have good. 01:00:43
Alignment on where we want to take this budget. 01:00:48
Um, so again. 01:00:50
Just to reiterate, this is a starting point. You know that we've. 01:00:52
There's some. 01:00:55
Where we're working on it. 01:00:56
All day today, so. 01:00:57
There's umm. 01:00:59
We'll keep going through that. 01:01:00
OK. So any comments on that? 01:01:02
We do need to vote on the 10th. 01:01:05
Yes, yeah. 01:01:07
Correct. Yep. So we go to the next phase, yes. 01:01:09
So what do we do? Where we? 01:01:11
Is it fine to just have it noticed under a public hearing? 01:01:13
Instead of an actual item. OK. 01:01:17
And it's just a motion to accept. 01:01:19
OK, OK. 01:01:21
I I think that there's. 01:01:28
I mean, there's. 01:01:29
A lot of there's going to be a lot of changes. 01:01:30
Between now and then and so it's. 01:01:32
The mayors cutting our. 01:01:35
Our salaries, Yeah. The immediate change is correcting the fat finger. Yeah. 01:01:36
Which has already been done, so that's good. 01:01:42
I I like the call out on making it more detailed for the. 01:01:47
And a staffing plan, making sure there's good staffing plan there, all those. 01:01:52
Questions and to make sure because I'd like to see I did speak with just. 01:01:56
I did speak with our bonding company. We met with them three days and recently. 01:02:00
Chatted with about the changes, they were fine with it. They said sounds great so just. 01:02:04
Just. 01:02:08
So that. 01:02:09
Answer that question regarding the. 01:02:10
But I'm also like. 01:02:12
This is the I mean, it's really early with citizens if we could do a social media post to review the budget and look through. 01:02:14
Take emails and. 01:02:20
Evans awesome that. 01:02:22
Listen and hear and go over it, you know? 01:02:23
We've got a lot of time so. 01:02:26
Yeah, OK. 01:02:28
All righty, I will. 01:02:31
I just want to note on the consolidated fee schedule. 01:02:33
Are we just adopting this for? 01:02:35
This fiscal year or do we want to change the title to have it apply to? 01:02:37
Next fiscal year too. 01:02:41
Brian, what were you thinking on that? 01:02:43
I like a couple weeks out. 01:02:44
Oh, just the fee schedule. Are we gonna? 01:02:48
Plan on continuing these into next year. Are we going to? 01:02:51
Kind of readopt for just the title of the thing says. 01:02:53
Fiscal year ending 26 for the. 01:02:57
For the fee schedule. 01:02:59
So the fiscal year, yeah, I think we can just update it to the fiscal year. 01:03:00
27 year and then the next one we could do, we can update it to 2627. 01:03:04
OK, it's not like we don't change it about once a month anyway. 01:03:09
OK, OK. 01:03:14
OK. 01:03:17
All right, so let's do the. 01:03:19
What did we decide on SO? 01:03:21
Are we good just to pass the let's do the consolidated fee schedule first? 01:03:22
Right. And then we can do the amended. 01:03:26
The. 01:03:29
The tentative budget, Let's do that one, OK? 01:03:30
So let's do the fee schedule first. 01:03:32
That good, guys, OK. 01:03:34
I'll entertain a motion and we'll do. 01:03:36
On the amended. 01:03:39
Consolidated fee schedule. Updated consolidated fee schedule. 01:03:41
David, you want to do it? 01:03:45
I make a motion that we. 01:03:47
Except the. 01:03:50
I moved to approve the consolidated fee schedule as presented. 01:03:52
Thank you. 01:03:55
2nd. 01:03:56
A second. All right, let's roll call this. We'll start with Ezra. 01:03:57
Aye, David. 01:04:00
Jacob I. 01:04:02
Jake. 01:04:03
I Jacob. 01:04:06
We'll figure that out. All right, We'll figure that. So. 01:04:07
So we've got two eyes both there and then, Parker, aye. 01:04:09
OK, passes. 01:04:12
All righty, so now we are going to. 01:04:14
Approve the. 01:04:18
Tentative budget. 01:04:21
Can I get a motion on that? 01:04:23
You're you're accepting, accepting. 01:04:24
Yes, move to accept. 01:04:27
I move to accept. 01:04:30
The tentative. 01:04:32
Budget. 01:04:33
As presented. 01:04:34
Do I have a second? 01:04:36
Second, Second. Awesome. 01:04:37
We'll start my left here, Parker. 01:04:39
Aye, Councilman hold. 01:04:40
Aye, Jake Wood. 01:04:43
I David I. 01:04:44
And Ezra? 01:04:46
Aye, OK. 01:04:47
That passes. 01:04:48
All righty, that is all we have. 01:04:50
City Council meeting Oh no, we have the. 01:04:52
Agenda item to switch our annual schedule. I'm so sorry. 01:04:55
Thank you. Let's 10.2 good catch. 01:04:59
All righty, let's do the discussion and action. 01:05:01
On changing the. 01:05:04
Agenda. 01:05:07
So noon isn't working for all of us, so we were thinking about moving it to either a Tuesday or Wednesday at 3:00. 01:05:09
Does anybody have any objections to either of those? 01:05:17
Yeah. 01:05:20
Just the working session, not the 6:00 PM or. 01:05:23
Just so it's later in the day so it could solve. 01:05:28
Two hours with staff and then. 01:05:30
If it goes later. 01:05:33
So those don't work. 01:05:36
What would you recommend as we your schedules try the tightest? 01:05:38
Yeah, yeah. 01:05:40
Because we can't do it Thursday or Friday. Because we can't turn around the agenda in time. 01:05:44
Yeah, yeah, now. 01:05:49
Got to protect Robin. Thinking about think about you, Robin. Yeah. 01:05:51
Do you have a preference Tuesday or Wednesday? Like no. 01:05:55
OK. I would prefer Tuesday. If we could hold it Tuesday, that would be helpful. I try to do all my mayor stuff. 01:05:59
I also prefer Tuesday if we can. 01:06:05
I'm good at Tuesday. 01:06:08
I could probably swing 4:30 on Tuesdays. 01:06:10
Is that 430 enough time? 01:06:14
Or maybe four staff. Will you riot against Ezra if he makes you stay late every Tuesday? 01:06:17
4 but then it's every other but we would. 01:06:24
We would do staffing first. 01:06:27
We compromise at 4, give us an hour of staff time and then we lead over for our discussions. We can 4:00. Is that reasonable? 01:06:30
Tuesdays, yeah. 01:06:37
OK, awesome. 01:06:38
OK, so. 01:06:41
Let's do a motion on this. 01:06:44
I moved to change the work meeting scheduled. 01:06:47
To every other. 01:06:50
Tuesday. 01:06:51
On the off weeks of City Council meetings starting the next. 01:06:53
City Council meeting. 01:06:57
The 19th to the 19th. May 19th. 01:06:58
Starting at 4:00 to start. Starting at 4 PM. 4:00 PM. 01:07:01
OK. And going. 01:07:04
That'll be the official calendar moving forward. 01:07:06
Awesome, do I have to be late next week? But. 01:07:09
That's kind of a second. 01:07:11
2nd. 01:07:14
OK, all in favor. 01:07:15
Aye, OK. 01:07:17
Aye. 01:07:19
OK, now we can. 01:07:20
Concludes City Council meeting. 01:07:21
I move to adjourn. 01:07:24
Move to adjourn. 01:07:25
And then we will start the RDA. Do we want to do how we feel in council? We want to give me 5 minutes, give me a 5 minute. 01:07:26
OK, Parker needs to use the restroom. 01:07:32
5 minute recess. 01:07:36
I appreciate it. 01:07:38
Functional. 01:07:40
Baby is good. 01:07:44
