Work meeting: 2000 East cost sharing and Highland Drive bridge
Discussed
The Utah Department of Transportation recommended $7.1 million for the Highland Drive bridge repair, versus half that in the 2021 request. A capital plan line of $250,000 covers rock ditch repairs on 2000 East; no decision on sharing with Millcreek.

Public hearing and work meeting discussion: 2023-24 budget amendments
Discussed
Amendments include $905,000 from capital projects fund balance for multiple expenses, $100,000 for Spring Lane park concept design and public engagement, a $200,000 transfer as a match for a 2700 East sidewalk grant, and a $250,000 match for the $600,000 historic experience grant. A $6.7 million federal grant for the Cottonwood Creek bridge on Highland Drive requires a Holladay match of $480,000 (6.77% of project cost, which rose from $3.5 million to $7 million). Historic signs would cost about $5,000 each rather than about $300. The capital projects fund fell from $14.7 million to about $11 million after an RDA loan.
