   FY2024 Capital Improvement Program projects, follow-up briefing

   Discussed

   Policy analyst Ben Luedtke presented funding scenarios for the council's priority projects: a Livable Streets total of $1,644,136, two driver-feedback signs on Rose Park Lane, a Richmond Park playground and Folsom Trail work combined with parks bond money, full funding for Sugar House Safe Side Streets Part 2 and Ensign Peak Nature Park, and safety work on Foothill Drive. The scenario would spend the entire CIP allocation. Members discussed a legislative intent for a data-driven approach to traffic calming, how the 50/50 sidewalk program reflects homeownership and income, differences between city and resident bids, ADA compliance, sidewalk funding in CDBG areas, a possible graduated income-based program, and transit capital for frequent routes. Staff will return with options on changing sidewalk repair policy.

   Capital Improvement Program projects, follow-up briefing

   Discussed

   Policy analyst Ben Luedtke walked the council through items on the funding log that were not recommended for funding, including a $4 million request to add to 700 South (Phase 7, 4600 West to 5000 West), a $494,000 request for safety changes on the west side of Foothill Drive, and several park, pickleball, crosswalk and street requests. Council Member Alejandro Puy asked how far $200,000 in multimodal maintenance money would go and for a list of projects; Council Member Darin Mano asked for an assessment of deferred maintenance before funding it. Transportation Director Jon Larsen said the Foothill Drive project ranked 74th or 77th of 113 on the city's prioritized list. Council Members Victoria Petro, Ana Valdemoros, Puy, Mano, Daniel Dugan, Chris Wharton and Sarah Young each named an item they wanted considered for funding, such as Rose Park Lane driver-feedback signs, a Richmond Park playground, and Sugar House Safe Side Streets Part 2.
