City Council - Regular Meeting

Okay.

So we we would like to begin our study session for city council on Tuesday, 01/06/2026 at 05:30PM.

Thank you.

Alright.

This this is just a quick update for the council to know that in the next thirty to sixty days, we'll be bringing two different proposed municipal boundary adjustments with Bluffdale. One is for the access road that will service what's been proposed as the new front runner station in Bluffdale as part of the point project. You may recall I I brought this up, I think, last meeting or the meeting before, but the way the way the proposed roads are laid out, there's a there's an intersection where two roads that are in Bluffdale meet at an intersection, which is in Draper, which isn't good. So the proposal would be that we adjust our municipal boundaries so that that intersection is also in Bluffdale so they have control of that whole that whole road. The second one involves Porter Rockwell Boulevard through the point.

And I'm just bringing up a so the the municipal boundary is is shown in blue here. The the southern part of of Porto Rockwell where it meets 146 is actually in Bluffdale. So the proposal would be would be to move the municipal boundary a short distance to the west so that the whole length of Port Of Rockwell from Banger to 146 is entirely within Draper. We met with Bluffdale and The Point before Christmas, and The Point is working on getting getting a a a survey of plat a boundary adjustment plat prepared. Once they've got that prepared, then we will put this back on the agenda for the consideration of a resolution of intent to adjust the municipal boundaries on those two parcels.

So just get just giving you an update as to where where we are in the process. That's it. Unless there's any questions? So there's a state statute that requires well, there's a state statute as part of the Emergency Management Act that states that cities have to designate successors for their officers. The statute allows there's kinda three options.

We can we can do that on a yearly basis by July 1 of each year, designate interim successors for each officer. So for instance, the city manager, city attorney, public works director, etcetera. If we don't do that by July 1 of each year, the statute defaults into a succession that is established by the legislature. And then there's a third option that we could actually adopt our succession by by ordinance, which probably would be the best option. Since I've been here, unfortunately, we haven't been very we haven't hit that July 1 mark every year.

So I I'm just bringing this to you to let you know that we'll bring back a list probably in our next meeting, if not the first meeting in February, where we designate emergency successors. Some some functions like the fire department and police department kind of already have a built in chain of command. You know? So if the chiefs aren't there, there's other, you know, deputy or or or captain in place. You know, for Tracy, I mean, Spencer's the only other person that is qualified.

Although although that excuse me. I've I've caught myself just as I looked at Jenny. So there are there are other successors. But, anyways, without belaboring the point, I'll bring back some options for the council to consider. So and and the intent will be that we'll follow the current chain of command within each department. So that's all I have.

K. So you might recall a couple of meetings ago, I brought up that the board requested that the city take overall maintenance on their streetlights. There was some concern from some of the council members that if we were doing that, we'd have to worry about all these different styles of streetlights. I went back and talked to some of our crews. That's not an issue. They already have some on hand. We can easily order them, keep them on inventory. So I met with the board, and we kinda came up with a solution that I'm I'm just looking for to see if you're interested in us pursuing it. So this is the typical street light. You can see it's different than our city standard.

It's a little bit problematic because the wood wood tends to rot, and this tends to break off. They've refurbished a bunch, and they did it kinda ugly. So there's some that they've gone back and refixed. But the problem is no one understands that they're not our streetlights, so they complain to us, and then the board is incapable of addressing it in a timely manner. So then they get really frustrated, and we're getting yelled at, and the residents don't understand.

So we came up with this solution. There's roughly a 150 street lights up in the the TRSSD. That's a tenth of our total street lights. So currently, what we take care of is base our base services. So we're responsible for all below ground electrical to the street lights, electrical external to the pole assembly, ensuring power supply to the poles, and providing underground repairs and fuse replacements.

So if we want to pursue some sort of agreement that we take over responsibility, these are the additional things that we would have to track and charge to an account that would be paid for by the TRSSD line. It'd be maintenance of the street lights, which would be any poles, foundations, electrical components within the poles. Pole gets knocked over or the light falls off or there's something in the electrical components that's not working above ground, we would track that. They also requested that we would take a proactive approach to turn the replacement needs for those that were either refurbished poorly or still yet to be replaced. And then I told them that we don't have any space to store their streetlights, that we would have to use some of their money to build some storage up in up in Suncrest.

The approach that I'm proposing, if we want to, would be we would take over all the streetlight maintenance, and TRSSD would be completely out of it. We create a new GL for the actual TRSSD funds to be deposited to annually in the amount upfront so that we are not doing I don't know if you guys know what's snow plowing. We we have to track everything. It's extremely time consuming. It's complicated.

It affects all of us, and then we submit that to them for reimbursement. I don't wanna do that. I wanna I wanna take the street lights over. So I would just ask for whether John says the best is January 1 or July 1. We get a lump sum up front to take care of these things.

We would determine that annually. The initial years being larger amounts to cover the proactive approach and the infrastructure storage needs. And then we would track everything still so that they could audit it if they wanted to, and also so that we could see where we're at in that account fund balance so that we can exceed that. And if we did, we'd have to go back to the board. That's something so let me see if that's something the council wants us to move forward with getting an agreement.

This has been once we settled with the district and it just became streets and first street lights and plowing. This is the last piece that we knew would ultimately be able to just it's not it's not in their wheelhouse. Like, they don't do this type of stuff.

The the tracking or do you do that with

the all city lights, or would you just be doing it

with No. We do it with all city lights. So we we use an asset management software. So the lights are actually already in our software. We do work orders on them already, and we track our amount spent, hours spent, equipment. It would just be that additional stuff we'd make sure we separate it to charge.

And and the the TRSD is already it's part of the tax that they're collecting is supposed to be covering this. So really what they would do is then just pass the that the portion of the tax they're collecting for streetlights would just come to the city Mhmm. And we would be we would do all the work. And I and I think what Robert said at the beginning is is really important in that everybody just assumes there's city issues. And when they don't get replaced or repaired promptly, you know, we're having to, you know, point them back at the TRSSD, which, as as Robert also point out, isn't very efficient at, getting work done.

So Another example of difficulties we have is they'll say no. It's yours. So then

we don't understand what's wrong with this. We have to pay an electrical company to go out. And a portion

that. Yeah. Do we have are we collecting enough tax to cover the light? Do we do we know? So Or the GRSS team is collecting enough?

They're the amount that they're collecting covers streetlights and snowplowing. I'm sure there's years of heavy snow where there might not be enough because that's happened with just reimbursement for snowplowing. So there would be those off chances of certain heavy years that there might not be enough. But for the most part, I think

this should be good. So, Fred, I don't I don't think there's a line item on the tax notice that differentiates between snow plowing and street lighting. It's just one lump sum. So it's their responsibility, obviously, to manage their books and make sure that they're collecting enough tax to meet the obligations that they've got.

Okay. I wanna make sure that we have it clear to them, So

we'll we'll we'll have an agreement like we do for snow plowing Mhmm. That will cover this. And and we could put in there, Fred, to address that issue of what happens if if they fall short or or as has happened in the past, their budget gets referred or, you know, whatever whatever it is.

We will have it in agreement for how we handle insurance claims for, you know, accidents that cause damage. I'll have something in the agreement that would address if these light styles became unavailable or

I think you said it won't be an actual, like, receipt you're counting as much as the snowplow situation is. So my only concern is that they have

the money to cover it. Right.

There's that concern

Fred?

Go ahead. I'm sorry?

Are you in favor of moving forward with this?

Yes. I am. I can. Yes. Fine too. Okay.

The next item can continue to a future date. So then we have

South sorry. Southeast Corner Of 3rd East and Pioneer. The city owns about 5,000 square feet of space. It was acquired in, I think, '96 as part of street improvements. It is encumbered by several utilities.

The property owner to the South, the office building to the South has added decorative wall and landscaping to the property without any city's permission to do so. In discussions with the property owner, he's asked if there's any way that he can keep the improvements or work with the city on that. So I wanted to get your guys' feedback on what kinda option you would be open to. I did reach out to all the utility companies to see if they had any issues. Enbridge and Lumen do have a few utility lines that may result in maybe a tree being removed or relocated.

There may potentially be some lines along the wall as well that we may need to look into, but all of the utility companies generally said they're they're fine with the landscaping. So the the options the city has is to require that all the improvements be removed, allow the improvements to remain subject to the property owner entering a maintenance and liability agreement with the city for those improvements and maintenance, and then adjusting or removing any improvements that don't meet those clearance standards from Enbridge and Woodman. The third option would be to allow landscaping and irrigation to remain, require that decorative wall to be removed. It still require that maintenance liability agreement as well as any improvements that don't meet clearance standards from utilities being removed. One concern staff does have with the wall itself is potential enforcement issues with either temporary temporary signs, you know, the the plastic signs that get put up all up in the sidewalk.

I I see this as a a big attraction for that and potential for permanent signage to to potentially show up. So questions, feedback? I do have a question about

so in the site plan that I saw Mhmm. It looked like they did have some a plan for some landscaping. And so where did that

where exactly on Their their property line is right

landscaping. Kinda right to the north of their their building. So the landscape plan really showed a couple shrubs adjacent to the building, and that's it. And then everything else is sitting up.

So what what you've just shown, Jen, is about eight to 10 feet north of their building wall, or is it even less that in terms

of No. So their property line is probably only a couple feet away from their building. Okay. And then the rest is the city property. Can you How do they get a how do they

get approval how do they get approval to build across the property line?

The zoning has a zero setback, so they could go up to the the front front property line. Can

you show me the options that you said?

Yes. We have. Did they realize did they realize when they were building their their fine that it was

Jay's property owner, he has said he doesn't plan on putting a sign on it that it's just a decorative wall. My concern is it becomes an enforcement issue down the line.

Yeah. I I mean, they know that they were in protein. Well,

that's why I'm asking if there's specific feedback if you guys want the wall removed, if you want all of the improvements removed as we go back and work with this adjacent property owner.

Neighborhood and that back of Thailand. And I think several years ago, the city came in,

but I don't remember what

the resolution was. If people had to remove stuff, if they could buy the property. I know they can't buy here because there's utilities.

But what are some other ways we've resolved this in the past?

I think there have been some areas where people have purchased property. I don't think that's something we've done recently. We've also enforced on making people remove improvements.

Didn't didn't realize their business sign was on our property, which really is that is that a business sign, or what what what's that sign?

It's just on the building.

That's so their bill business sign is well, they have a real estate, you know, for lease something.

Oh, okay. That's for lease. Okay. I wasn't sure what that sign was.

When I go to the aerial, their permanent signage is down here.

That's that so concerns me is having any kind of signage on our property Yeah. Regardless of whether it's permanent or just temporary for lease. So we wanna get into the business of allowing the people to use our property to advertise their businesses

allowing that from the setting precedence for others to be able to see the.

So for are you saying to to remove the wall? What about the landscaping?

He

the the adjacent property owner would have to enter into a maintenance liability agreement with the city, and they would do the maintain maintain the landscaping irrigation. I think I think it looks I don't have as much harm with

the landscape. I'm sorry. Grant, I'm interrupting you.

I

just I think it looks nice. And so I think, like, having to take out all the landscaping, I'm like, well, I think that

I don't know. It would be interesting to see what

it looked like when it's just city. And so I so I don't necessarily have a problem with that. I think it's great, especially if he's gonna have to enter into an agreement that says he's gonna take care of it. Like, seems I'm not sure there's something that I'm not understanding here, but that seems like a win for us. I I do think, like, signage on the city property is a bad idea, and something in that agreement should make sure to if he is maintaining it.

No. I I would agree with Catherine on this. I think the landscaping that one

Sorry. Tasha, you're cutting out a little bit.

Okay. Well

You you said the landscaping

I agree with. Okay. So

keep the landscaping, but ask them to remove the wall.

So Yeah.

And any sign they just can't have signage in our in

is council manager. Is right there. I think. Missing anything.

Did you want do wanna hear from staff, or do you wanna see if the council Yeah. Can. We can. Okay.

You Mike just asked me to share as part of the Draper Wellness Coalition, we are working with Salt Lake County Health to offer a public training, and it'll be Wednesday, January 28 here at City Hall from seven to 08:30PM. Our area of focus for this quarter is suicide prevention and gun safety. And so the county will be here providing a QPR training, which is question, persuade, refer. It's a method that is known to be effective to help prevent suicide. And in conjunction with that, our police department has received a grant, not really a grant, a donation of free gun safes.

So we are going to combine a giveaway of the gun safes with this event. There'll be, I think, 10 available. And there's a waiver that people have to sign, and then I think our community policing unit is going to do, like, a drawing just among the attendees that night. So just wanted to make you aware of that and let me know if you have any concerns. Did you say the twenty eighth? Yes. Okay.

Scott. Just wanted to give an update on our ongoing pump station three project. The first shutdown of the transmission line will be next Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. So So first phase is next week pending any unforeseen things. But we we fill the tanks all up on top of the mountain.

We calculate how many days we can live off tank water so there's no emergencies. We monitored it the whole time. We have engineering and public work staff driving around. It's twenty four hour shift starting Tuesday through Thursday. This main focus of smooth, I hope.

But yeah. So we'll probably be doing some public relation messaging to say, hey.

You're on

tank water. Like, keep an eye out. Don't use. Don't overuse. People aren't watering, so we should be fine. But in 2223, I think our longest shutdown was five and a half days. We had two weeks during that, and we still had enough to do another day and a half. So pretty conservative.

Anyone else?

We started a big project today. As you walked in, you probably saw. Mhmm. So six to eight weeks for that to be completed, but we're seeing good progress already. So it is is your area secure overnight, or is the Biscuit kinda keeping everybody out? It's the Biscuit. But we have installed a locking a lock on the inside closet door where we've put everything Okay.

Anything from any council members?

I don't have anything right now.

Natasha's on her way over. Oh, okay. So we still have a quorum. Okay. She's

Okay. At 07:00, we'd like to go ahead and get our meeting started. We would like to welcome you all to our city council meeting this evening. We'll go ahead and start with our flag ceremony and pledge of allegiance by Cub Scout troop four four four four.

Color Color guard attention. Audience attention. Will the audience please rise? Color guard advance. Cub Scout Salute.

Color guard hall. Color guard post the colors. Color guard salute. Please join me in the pledge of allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of The United States Of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation

under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Two, color guard dismissed. The audience may be seated.

Thank you troop for doing that for us. That was really special. Oh, would you guys like to take a picture up up here? The troop, would you guys all like to come and take a picture? Okay.

The next item on the agenda is a proclamation for religious freedom day. I'll go ahead and read that. Whereas the United States Congress in 1992 set aside January 16 as religious freedom day to honor the passage of the Virginia statute for religious freedom in 1786. And whereas religious freedom day has been recognized by presidential and state proclamations annually, and whereas many of the first immigrants to our nation came to these shores motivated by their desire for religious liberty so that they could worship according to the dictates of their own consciences. And our forefathers saw fit to protect and support freedom of religion by establishing it in the first amendment of The United States constitution.

And whereas those of faith and those of no faith have common goals of unity, love, service, mutual civility, and a desire to live true to belief and conscience and whereas we seek mutual respect and fairness to all and whereas we invite others to defend freedom of religion, including the long standing standing religious freedom restoration act. Now, therefore, I, Bryn Heather Johnson, mayor pro tem of Draper City, state of Utah, along with the members of the Draper City Council, do hereby proclaim 01/16/2026 as religious freedom day and urge all residents to reflect upon and respect the importance of religious liberty for all. And I just wanna state that the mayor is attending, some oath of office ceremonies, so he could not be here today. And, council member Green is away on active duty service, and council member Lowry has called in. So that's where we are today.

Okay. The next item is public comments. So if anybody would like to come up and give a a public comment, they are, restricted to items that are listed on this that are not listed on this or future agenda, and they are limited to three minutes per person. Is there anyone here who would like to make a public comment this evening? Okay.

Not seeing anyone. We'll go ahead and move on to our next item, which is number five, the consent items. Item number five a is approval of the 12/16/2025 city council meeting minutes. Item five b is approved resolution 26 dash o one. Item five c is to approve resolution 26 dash o two. Item five d is to approve resolution 26 dash o four. Item five e is to approve ordinance number sixteen ninety eight.

Madam mayor pro tem, may I make a motion to approve the consent calendar?

Is there a second? I'll second. Okay. So we had a motion by miss Lowry. So how do you and a second by miss Stalin. So miss Lowry, how do you vote? Yes. Miss Stalin? Yes. And miss Johnson? Yes. Oh, just Fred? Oh, Fred. Sorry. Fred? Mister Lowry?

Yeah.

How do you vote?

Yeah.

Thank you. Sorry about that. Okay. So the item has been passed passed unanimously. So we'll go ahead and move on to item six, which is items for council consideration. And the first item is public hearing is a public hearing, and that's ordinance number sixteen ninety seven to it's an ordinance amending the official zoning map Draper City for approximately 1.04 acres of property from R A 1 to R R 3 and it's located approximately 283 East Tanager Lane, and it's known as the Butler zoning map amendment. And Paul Gaiman is going to present for us.

Thank you. So we'll get right into it. So we have our vicinity map. We are located just West of 300 East and just North of Browns Pond. And like we said, we're off of Tanager Way. We go for a closer area. We can see Browns Pond in the bottom left. So we are the corner lot there off of Tanager And 300 East. Taking a look at the land use. So the proposed zone change for R 3 zoning is compatible with the current land use of residential medium density.

If we take a look at the zoning maps, we are currently zoned RA 1. There is R 3 to the East, RA 2 to the South, R 3 RA 1 and R 3 to the North, and RA 1 to the West. So looking at overview of the request, so the proposed zoning is 13,000 square foot minimum lot size. The r a one that it currently is is 40,000 square foot, minimum lot sizes. So looking at the the lot of this acreage, which is 1.04 acres, that translates to 45,300 square feet.

So looking at subdividing in the r three zone, it would be able to do potentially three lots, But with the nature of Thirties being a classified street, they wouldn't be able to have access off of there, so everything would have to come off of Tanager. So it would be tricky. So theoretically, three lots would be possible, but it would be tricky. We do have some site photos there and then planning commission results. So the planning commission reviewed this item at the 12/11/2025 meeting and forwarded a positive recommendation for the application with a vote of five o. I am available for any comments. We also have the applicant, Lynnae, and her father, the property owner here, that they can also answer any questions as needed.

Okay. Thank you. Any questions at this point? I'll go ahead and open it to public comments. If there's anyone here who would like to make a comment on this issue, please come forward and state your name and your address and your time will start in about three minutes.

Thank you. Jacob Goodrich. Address is 259 Tanager Lane. So immediately to the west of the Butler's and I just want to say I'm fully in support of this. Great neighbors love to to see the approval.

Thank you. Is there anyone else here? Okay. Would the applicant like to say anything, address the the council?

Just if you have any questions, I don't have anything to particularly say. So

So considering what staff has stated, what is your intent to subdivide into three? Or

So presently, I'm only looking to subdivide and develop the Northwest parcel, and it would come in off Tanager Lane. Okay. That's kind of the back corner. We pull that up?

And would you go ahead and state your name for the record so

we Sorry. Lynea Butler, and it it's my parents' property. Yeah. So I would be developing this corner right here with access to Tanager here.

Yeah. Yeah. And this might be a question for Paul, actually. I'm you mentioned that they couldn't have access from 300 East. Can you I apologize. I don't know. Can you tell me why it would need to be off of Tanager?

Yeah. For sure. So in discussions with, the engineering department, specifically Brian Maxfield, 3rd East is a is a classified road. So either a, a collector in Arterial Street. And so if subdivided, engineering department would not allow access to come from 3rd East being a collector or arterial street. So they would have to provide access off of Tanager through either a private lane or flag lot, something like that. So sorry, Paul.

Does does that mean that it were whatever's currently on 30 is the limit of off off 30 is that

So currently, they have one curb cut off of 30 East on the Northeast Corner. But in talking with Brian, if they did the subdivision, that curb cut would go away. They wouldn't be able to have that access. Everything would come off of Tanager.

So I'm curious if your intent is only to subdivide into two lots. Why have you requested RA three?

Long term, there's three of us, three siblings. I have two a brother and a sister. So a third would go to each of us as far as estate planning purposes. But I intend to build on the Northwest lot. Sooner than that. Sooner than my siblings would want their inheritance just for my parents to be near my parents as they get older.

And I might ask a question too. Is this this a new amendment? This what you were just discussing about 300 East? No. It's been that's been the standard for years and years. Can we make sure that we get all

of this on the record by speaking into the mics, both for the applicant and for Paul, please?

Sorry. Thank you. I'm just curious about all the other subdivisions down 300 East that dump on 300 East. Anybody know? I mean, there's one not a quarter of a mile down.

So I I can help answer answer that. So when you're subdividing property and creating new property, all the access points have to comply with our code. For classified roads, we don't allow individual driveways. If your property only had frontage on thirty's, you'd be able to have a private road that comes off thirty's because you do have access to Tanager. You'd be required to have your access off Tanager.

I wonder because the one I'm thinking of backed on the lake, and they had to go out on 300 acres. Answers my question.

Okay. Any further questions? Can we

pull up the map again of the different zoning in the area?

I might add something else here too. Jacob, our neighbor, owns see this strip right here? Can anybody hear me? This strip right here, he also owns this lot. And at some point, him being much younger, but at some point, he's planning on developing this and this will be the access to it.

So he is willing to give us a right of way there for Tanager Lane. And possibly, we can work out something from this lot to get to that right of way. That's our thinking, but I'd have to ask Paul about that.

Okay. Do you wanna address that? We

Oh, can I I have a I have a question on that then? With that access, then would that mean that's where you would get three lots? So

this is new information to staff. This has not been gone over. The subdivision obviously hasn't been been mapped out. So I can't speak to whether or not they'd be able to get the access off of off of that extra extra land. All that we've been discussing is the 283 East. So I can't speak for what future plans they have. That'd be something that we considered at a at a later date.

Yes. Is is it if there was a flag lot there, Paul or Jen, would that count towards the square footage of a lot, or is that excluded from the square footage of a lot?

Flag lots, the stem on the flag lot counts towards your minimum lot size. If you have something like a private road, that does not count towards your minimum lot size.

Any further questions? Okay. Thank you. Can I turn this over to the council for consideration?

I'm not sure at this point that we have all the information necessary to move forward on this one. My inclination is still that this might be better as an RA2. And I'm a little concerned about this new information that's just coming forward about the access. I'm wondering if we could continue this to the next council meeting and get a little more information.

I would make that motion, Tasha, or second that motion from you. I think it would be I would be able to continue this because I voiced your state concern. It's it's only gonna be two moss on that. I don't doesn't make any sense to me to make it an RA three. We should make it an RA two. But with this new information, I think we need to make sure that that is feasible.

Can I ask a question? Is the reason that you're looking well, I guess you did tell us that you eventually hope to do three, but the the build that you're hoping to do in the Northwest Corner would be not a half size lot. I think that's why they're looking for RA3 now even though they don't know what happens in the future because of the size of the lot that she's hoping to build on now. Yeah. I'm I'm guessing that's why they're

The access to that lot would presumably be through this corridor that hasn't been contemplated by staff.

Yeah. I would yeah. I would assume that that that it would be on on their existing lot given the information that we received. Right.

But they're saying no. It would be through the neighbors.

No. No. No. Sorry. If I can speak. I don't know if I'm allowed to speak.

Yes. Go go right ahead.

So right now, the plan is to have access up the west side of that red square off of Tanager Lane, a private drive. If that's not a viable option, we have the second option that we'll fall back on. There's plenty of land there to do the access, the drive up the west side of my parents' property and have me live in the back there. But if for some reason the city says, no. We're not gonna let you do that or whatever, We will go to the route of so that'll that's like our secondary position.

So if if you guys do want more information and want continue this, I'd ask that you kind of provide us what information you'd like us to bring back. One thing with this being a rezone, we are in the design phase for a subdivision at this point. We don't have, you know, engineered drawings, a survey, anything like that to clarify exactly how many lots they'd be able to get, what kind of design there would be.

Council, Okay. You have a recommendation or a motion?

I'm not ready to move forward on this one until we have a little more information about the access point and how all of the access for three separate units would be coming off of Tanager. I would move to continue it to the next city council meeting.

I'll second that motion.

Okay. So we have a motion by miss Lowry and a second by mister Lowry. Miss Lowry, how do you vote? Yes. Mister Lowry, how do you vote?

Yes.

Miss Dolan, how do you vote? Yes. And miss Johnson votes yes. So this item will be continued up to a later date.

To clarify, the motion was to continue to the next city council meeting. Yes.

Okay. The next item on our agenda is to approve resolution 26 dash o three which is a resolution adopting the Draper City 2026 comprehensive emergency management plan and logistics annex, and the staff report is by Nick Roble.

Good evening. Tonight, I'll be, presenting the comprehensive emergency management plan and the logistics annex. My name is Nick Roble. I'm the emergency services coordinator for Draper City Fire Department. So the purpose tonight is to provide an overview of the comprehensive emergency management plan.

What that does is outlines the framework for managing disasters and major emergencies within Draper City. Also identifies department responsibilities and the coordination that will occur. So it was developed in compliance with FEMA, Utah code, the NIM system, and the incident command system. And what it does is it establishes the framework to coordinate emergency response, recovery, preparedness, and mitigation operations that will take place. The scope of the plan, it applies to all Draper City departments, and it describes how we'll coordinate with county, state, and federal agencies and also our integration with Salt Lake County and Utah County division of emergency management.

And it was based on the Salt Lake County hazard mitigation plan that was recently approved by FEMA. So some of the objectives want to establish scalable command and control structures, define our operational procedures across all departments, identify key roles, responsibilities, resource coordination, support continuity of government and operations, and build community preparedness and resilience. So our concept of operations, our operational priorities, number one is always life safety. Then we're gonna look to stabilize the incident, protect property and the environment, establish our community lifelines, and our continuity of government. So some of the preparedness activities that are gonna be in our focus area, gonna regularly update the plan and our continuity of operations plan integration, our training and exercises, and baseline FEMA, ICS, and NIMs training for our staff, including public outreach and education.

So some of our response operations are key actions, establish a common operating procedure, coordinate all public information through our joint information center, conduct damage assessments, request mutual aid and resources as necessary, and support community protective actions and evacuations when necessary. Our recovery operations, once we transition from response to recovery, hazard containment, lifeline stabilization, and initial damage assessments, And then we'll move into a recovery task force, which coordinates recovery priorities and activates our recovery support functions and develops long term recovery plan. Our implementation and maintenance gonna be reviewed annually by Draper City Emergency Management. It will be updated every three years or post incident or exercise with lessons learned. We're gonna integrate with our department continuity of operations plan and continuous improvement through after action reports.

And moving on to the logistics annex. The purpose of that is to ensure that our responders have the people, equipment, facilities, and supplies needed to operate within the response, and it supports all city departments during emergencies and planned events. Replies a short duration incidents, extended multi day emergencies, and large scale evacuations and disasters. Some of our core capabilities will be able to have resource requests ordering and tracking, staging areas and facilities for responder support, transportation and shelter support, vendor mutual aid and partner coordination, and integration with county and state logistics systems. That concludes my presentation. Does anyone have any questions?

No. Just thank you so much for your work on this.

Absolutely.

We've been really wanting a very thorough emergency plan for a long time. So it is so great to see this being developed and implemented.

I agree with Ms. Lowry. I was really impressed as I read through the information. I did have a question about how we are planning on getting some of this information out to the public. For instance, in in the plan, I noticed that it it mentioned it takes about ninety six hours to get help and encouraging people to have it and a kit for, you know, ninety two hours. And I always do the bare minimum, so I have seventy two, which is what I had heard previously. So how are we gonna get information like that out to our residents?

So we're gonna be building our our our public and our private relationships, working with the public, conducting workshops conducting training to let them know this is what we expect of them and what they should expect of us as a municipal response.

That sounds great. Thank you. Anyone else have any questions? Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Okay, I'd like to turn it. Do we need to approve it? Oh, yeah, was gonna turn it over to the council. I have a motion to approve that?

I'll make a motion. I motion that we approve resolution twenty six zero three.

I'll second it. Okay.

So we have a motion by miss Dahlen and a second by miss Lowry. Miss Dahlen, how do you vote? Yes. Miss Lowry, how do you vote? Mister Lowry, how do you vote?

Yeah.

And miss Johnson votes yes. That brings us to number eight on our agenda. Can I get a motion for adjournment? So moved. Second. All in favor say aye.

Aye. Aye. Aye.
