Marriott-Slaterville Monthly History June 2013 Sgt. Lane Findlay, Weber County Sheriff Department, warned residents that property crimes typically riseas the temperature rises. In the June issue of The Pioneer Post he said that most burglaries and thefts are crimes of opportunity, often involving items like purses, book bags and electronics being left in cars. Don't help perpetrators, and do report suspicious activity. Unfamiliar individuals wandering your neighborhood, or juveniles walking around late at night should be reported to the Weber Dispatch at 801-629-8221. Business licenses were reviewed at the City Council Meeting held June 20, 2013, for: Paradise Lost Paint Ball, 3105 W. Pioneer Road, paint ball/Airsoft. Purr-ty Pets Grooming, 2907 W. Pioneer Road, pet grooming. Ricky Hatch, Weber County Clerk/Auditor's office, gave a presentation concerning the Weber County bond election and how the mail-in ballots will be handled and processed, as this was the county's first mail-in election. Mr. Blake Parker, attorney for Mr. Harris, a Farr West property owner, reported Mr. Harris proposed to construct 1800 West from 400 North into Farr West, in order to access his property. The road would be constructed at no expense to the city. It will be built to city standards, with an 80 foot right-of-way to accommodate commercial traffic. Mr. Frank Blair gave an easement at no charge, in exchange for the road being constructed through his property at no cost. Road dedication fees need to be worked out with Mr. Blair and Mr. Parker. Any stop light at the intersection would be paid for by the city and that cost should be included in the impact fees. Presently there is no agreement with Farr West City for the cost of the road and the future businesses. Mr. Parker hope construction would be underway as soon as possible. After further discussion, Resolution 2013-E, authorizing the mayor to execute the documents for the design and construction of 1800 West Street was approve unanimously.

Last fall a limited auto recycling business approached the city to develop this business as Tear-A-Part. The developer submitted a request to the Planning Commission at a work session last year to consider auto recycling in the Manufacturing Zone in the Central Business. The Planning Commissbn asked staff to prepare a limited auto recycling ordinance amendment, which was prepared. The Planning Commission held a public hearing in April 2013 and gave its recommendation to approve the proposed Ordinance. The Commission had reservations about albwing auto recycling, but supports the idea of having a diverse tax base and feels the location is appropriate. A host fee and development agreement are also part of the proposal. Council members discussed set back requirements for the storage area and proposed a 150 foot setback from the road to be added to the ordinance. Changes were made to the fence requirement so that it is limited to 10 feet and that stacked vehicles cannot be visible over the fence height. 119
