Ordinances and Resolutions Ordinances and resolutions are the frame of City government. The following were approved by the City Council during 2010: Ordinance 2010-01, ratifying the Official Zoning Map for the city, was discussed. The original zoning map was adopted in 1999.

A proposed ordinance was prepared by a committee of all cities and the county who seek to coordinate a cooperative plan for the establishment of trails and pathways throughout the county. Randy Phipps represented our city on the committee. It is the intent of this ordinance element of the city's general plan to promote, plan and protect non-motorized public trails and pathways, and to maintain and enhance the local beauty, atmosphere, rural lifestyle, outdoor recreational opportunities and sense of community. In conjunction with Weber County and other municipalities, the city has prepared trail and pathway plans and policies, identified potential future trail and pathway locations, and identified trail and pathway access points. All trails will be built as development occurs, or the landowner is in agreement, as eminent domain does not apply for trails under current law. All will be funded with impact fees. Developers can construct them as was done at the charter school, and is proposed at the Slaterville Commercial Subdivision, as it counts toward their landscaping requirement.
