Show Marriott-Slaterville History November 2008 Resolution 2008-N, Adopting the Updated Natural Hazard Pre-disaster Mitigation Plan in Accordance with the Federal Disaster Mitigation and Cost Reduction Act of 2000, was discussed. This resolution updates the plan previously adopted by the Council, which is necessary to obtain federal funds if a disaster occurs in the community. The resolution was approved unanimously. Recently, Ogden City became aware of a 10" sanitary sewer line, running east and west, located on the north side of 12th Street, along or near our mutual border. It is presumed to be owned and operated by Ogden City, but only serves about four users. After both cities' staff met, they recommended the line be transferred to Marriott-Slaterville City for ownership, operation, and maintenance, and the council was asked to ratify the agreement. Mr. Smout asked how this will benefit the city. Mr. Morris advised that it would help the businesses in our city on the south side of the road. A new line will be installed during the 12th Street reconstruction, crossing the road to serve the south side. Mayor Keith Butler said that the businesses are paying to run that sewer line, and the city will collect fees to maintain it. President Dennis Illum said this line will save the expense of running the Cape Construction line further east. The IFA area and all its businesses are on the Cape Construction line; everything east of IFA will be served by this new line. President Illum reiterated that it will save the city a considerable amount. Resolution 2008-O, ratifying this agreement, was approved unanimously. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on October 15, 2008, to take public comment on the proposed ordinance for a zoning map amendment for various parcels from RE-20 to A-1 at 2016 West 700 South, requested by James Syme. Following the hearing, the commission recommended approval of the ordinance. Councilman Scott VanLeeuwen asked about a boundary tine dispute. The council was told that there is a six foot section of property which is in dispute between Mr. Syme and Keith Slater which remains RE-20. Mr. Morris said the property owner did not realize the property zone had been changed to RE-20, and would like to revert it back to agricultural, for tax purposes. After discussion Ordinance 2008-11 was approved by the council. Ordinance 2008-10, approval of zoning map amendment from A-1 to Commercial at 701 North 2000 West, by Castle Funding Group, was discussed. The Planning Commission, after a public hearing on October 15, 2008, recommended approval of this Ordinance. The ordinance includes an 0-1 open space designation along Four Mile Creek, and that three lots in front of the property be reserved for retail commercial only. The applicant may propose storage units at the rear of the property, similar to that allowed in the M-1 zone, but this would need a separate ordinance. Mr. VanLeeuwen questioned the depth of the lot, and was advised that the cul-de-sac was within the 1400 feet in maximum distance, as specified in the Public Works Standards. There is no anticipated problems with the sewer plant at the rear of the property, if it is used for commercial purposes. Councilman Kim Slater expressed concern over access to the property. President Illum said that access must be worked out with UDOT, because if the use changes, UDOT can restrict access. Ordinance 2008-10 was approved unanimously. The Planning Commission has recommended approval of a partial re-plat of Townhouse Estates PUD Phase 111 at 1119 South 1200 West, and an ammendment to Phase V. Each request was acted upon separately. The council was shown a plat map indicating the amendment for Phase III. It will eliminate one unit and makes the remaining units slightly larger. Gerald Hoth, developer, said with the present economy, this gives flexibility to the project. Only preliminary approval is requested at this time. The memorandum dated October 10, 2008, from the City Engineer was reviewed. The recommendation was approved unanimously. The council discussed approval of Townhouse Estates PUD Phase V Subdivision at 1119 South 1200 West. The amendment breaks the project into additional phases and includes adding units to the existing house next to Top Stop.

Mayor Butler asked the staff to be mindful of the budget before proposing spending, in light of the struggling economy. 1f a proposed major project comes to the city, it must be discussed y the administration before it can be approved. |
