    Continued

    Staff summarized the applications: a UDOT bridge replacement grant at 1500 West 650 North, a FEMA BRIC grant (including $100,000 for an equity and inclusion plan), a 700 North corridor grant, the Utah Inland Port Authority electrified truck facility at 700 North and John Glenn Road, the Kensington East-West Neighborhood Byway Phase 2, two Transportation and Land Use Connection grants (Granary District Area Plan and a downtown building height zoning update) and the annual state EMS per-capita grant for Fire Department supplies. Speakers supported the bridge and FEMA grants and the Kensington byway, citing safer routes for pedestrians and children. One speaker raised transparency and opposition concerns about the Utah Inland Port Authority truck facility. The council moved to close the hearings and refer Items 1-8 to a future consent agenda.
