Resolution 2025-37: agreement among the city, Redevelopment Agency of Holladay and KMW Development relating to affordable housing at Royal Holladay Hills
Approved · 6-0
The city requires 100 units, moved from Block D to unbuilt Block E. Mayor Dahle said homeowners association and amenity issues are not city matters. Council Member Fotheringham said the $2.5 million city loan is restricted, is forgiven as units are built and deed-restricted and is callable if they are not delivered, and that he would consider later amending the agreement to use Block D for 80% area median income units. Council Members Brewer, Durham and Quinn said a 30-day delay would not change the city's obligations or the structure; Council Member Gray hoped the developer would work with Block D residents.

Two Block D owners asked for 30 more days with no vote until Jan. 20, 2026, saying residents felt let down by a lack of disclosure and worried that shared amenities would burden the homeowners association and older owners. A developer representative asked for approval, saying a delay would add deadline risk, funds are set aside and schematics are due by June.
