Budget assumptions for the operating budget: capital projects
Discussed
Topics included reallocating Well 1 relocation funds to drill a new well while keeping Well 1 as a supplemental source, funding petroglyph and burial-site fencing ($7,500) through the operating budget, and a possible library and community center near Cory Wride Memorial Park with options of bond or grant funds, general fund surplus or design funding first. Staff said the city has about 0.08 square feet of library space per resident against an industry standard of 0.6. Other items were paving the community development yard ($600,000 approved in 2022, with another $1,200,000 needed), $500,000 requested for city center median landscaping beyond the $792,991 already approved for streetscape installation, Silverlake Amphitheater improvements funded by utility sale proceeds, the Wasatch Wing and Clay Road interlocal cost share, and striping options on Pony Express Parkway and Ranches Parkway. Sewer impact fee projects are not fully funded and may need advances from other funds; water projects are fully funded. Remaining capital projects were deferred to the next meeting.
