Marriott-Slaterville History July 2006 Ordinance 2006-03 relates to an application by Justin Tobias proposing one acre on the south end of 2.83 acres at approximately 250 North 200 West (SR 126) be rezoned from A-1 to C2-P. He wants to build professional offices, including a dental office. He lives in the city and would like to keep his business here. The entrance to the dental office would be from 250 North not off the highway. He showed two rough conceptual plans. The planning commission has approved the application. Mr. Morris recommended approval of an Ordinance to adopt a concept plan and rezone the entire 2.83 acre parcel to C2-P, subject to compliance with the general plan, appropriate landscape and screening as a buffer to surrounding zones, UDOT approval of access to the site, and developer entering development agreement subject to staff and agency comments. President Ilium was concerned about rezoning the entire parcel, and what would happen if Mr. Tobias didn't buy the other acres. Mr. Morris said if it wasn't developed within one year, it would revert back to the previous zoning. If Mr. Tobias develops his commercial property, the remainder of the property would remain in the new zoning. The ordinance was adopted by unanimous vote. Ordinance 2006-04 is an amendment to Chapter 6.01 of the criminal code to comply with amendment to the state law; to provide a penalty for disrupting a public meeting; severability, and provides an effective date. It was adopted by the council unanimously. Mayor Keith Butler reported that the sewer plant will be making improvements to the sewer district to accommodate future residents. Location and size of the sewer line was discussed. The landscaping for the building is completed, which greatly improves the overall appearance. Mr. Morris met with representatives of the First Methodist Church who plan on constructing a building in the city. He advised them of the necessary set back and the paperwork needed to start building. The mayor thanked the staff for their hard work and wanted the council members to realize just how much they do to keep things working in the city. Councilman Delbert Hodson expressed his appreciation for the work that went into making the July 4th celebration successful. He also related that at night he can hear semi-trucks using jake brakes. He asked if signs could be placed on the state road showing that jake brakes cannot be used, or what the city might be able to do. President Illum asked Councilman Kim Slater to thank the Mosquito Abatement people for their work this year. He also asked that 1200 West be watched more for trucks over the weight limit. He has seen Parson trucks carrying asphalt into Farr West for two straight days. Residents were cautioned about the danger of letting strangers into their homes. An incident, which fortunately turned out well, occurred with one of our feisty more mature widows. A young man came to her door selling subscriptions to magazines for service men. He, apparently in considerable discomfort, asked to use her bathroom. She let him inside; he used the bathroom and left. She noticed that her purse was gone from the stand where it had been laying. Her health has not been the best recently, and she walks with a cane, but this really raised her ire. As quickly as possible, she hurried outside and called to the young man down the street to "bring her purse back." He came back, telling her that her purse was in the bathroom. She insisted he wait. She went in and found the purse, but the money was gone. She had just come from the grocery store and knew what money she had in her purse. Demanding her money back, he reached in his pocket and pulled out some bills. "That's not all of it. I know how much I had," she said. Eventually he returned it all and he left with the admonition following him, "don't try that again on anyone here." A great story; a brave, but probably not too wise lady. Don't let a stranger in your home, and don't try to apprehend a suspected thief!
