The date is August 26, 2025.

The time is 532.

I apologize for being a couple minutes late here getting underway.

We always like to start this meeting with a prayer, and I ask Heather if she would do that.

Our dear Heavenly Father, we're grateful that we're able to be here tonight to be able to have a city council meeting and be able to do things that are best for our great city.

We're so thankful for the opportunity we have to live here and all the blessings that we have, and for the great people who live in this city.

We ask the Heavenly Father to be with our residents, be with our first responders for our police and fire that they may be safe and protected and have be watching out for over them.

Heavenly Father, please be with our children as they have begun the school year that they'll be able to be safe and be able to aspire to great things and be part of the great city that we have here.

Thank you, Heather.

Okay.

Okay, we have uh three items in our presentations tonight.

Item 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 is uh Perry Holmes uh discussion on possible trends of uh travers mountain area plan amendment.

Uh Gardner Development is the second one discussion on possible amendment uh to the Lehigh Block Agreement, and then Alison is going to present on the discontinuing of the green waste program.

So item 2.1 is first, Perry Holmes who is here to present.

Good evening.

I'm Matt Swain.

Uh I'm representative of the the Perry companies as it relates to the agenda item tonight.

And uh this has been a concept that we've been discussing with staff for some time now and wanted to present to the council and and uh see which direction we can we can go with this concept.

Uh for many years there's been expressed to us an interest uh from the city to get as much density up out of the canyon as possible.

In West Canyon, we currently have entitled rights to approximately 600 units uh in West Canyon.

Um we are proposing to relocate the entirety of those units out of the canyon with the ability to spread those out over our remaining holdings down lower toward SR92.

We have also in conjunction with that concept reached out to um the representatives of Riverbend who remain the owners of uh some raw property, undeveloped property directly south and below the exact ware buildings.

Um they are quite interested in working with us to allow some of that density to go on to their property as part of a conceptual mixed-use project.

So across our remaining land holdings and the riverbend land holdings is is where we would propose to relocate uh the entirety of those entitled rights in West Canyon.

We feel like this could be uh a potential win-win win for for all parties uh uh involved.

We we see that bringing the density out of the canyon, we would then dedicate that property over to whichever entity necessary to have that property in perpetuity be a part of your natural open spaces city, thereby limiting the the amount of long-term development in that canyon, limiting the amount of commercial traffic that would be traveling up those residential streets, past schools and church sites and parks, and in our mind doing a better job of of of densifying the residential uh uh units down closer to SR92, where that type of density would be a more appropriate use of that remaining land around uh the existing commercial and proposed future commercial.

We would also propose as a part of this concept to allow us to have the flexibility to move that density across the remaining properties that we have.

We don't have concepts at this point showing what that density would look like.

But and Kim, I don't know if there's a visual to show kind of which parcels I'm referring to that could be shared with council, but I was going to ask you I had a graphic that we could look at because that'll help.

I think everybody understand.

Okay.

What your proposal is.

Okay.

So West Canyon is everything in the pink, as you can see.

We're proposing that all that density be relocated out of the canyon down on remaining property that we own that's essentially in the brown or the brown outlined by red.

So that property to give you some uh reference point, exact where is kind of in the middle of the purple parcel.

The charter school and the fire station is kind of on the left side of the brown parcel.

That remaining hill side is our uh ground.

There's some remaining ground over to the east of the view apartments, which is kind of under the there you go.

If you can.

So it's on the east side of that brown section there.

The uh proposed uh mixed use shopping center apartments is in that purple, just to the right there, which is the the joint venture with Center Cal.

The property that I'm referring to, river bend is directly west of that property along along SR 92.

So between the river dam riverbend property, the brown parcels that are undeveloped, we would propose to bring that uh those 600 units down uh on that remaining undeveloped property and develop uh in that area exclusively.

With that, we would also ask to be able to flexibly move the density across the properties, giving us the ability to appropriately develop the remaining property.

Some of this property is is very uh topographically challenged, very steep hillsides, where you simply can't develop it with anything less than uh a pretty dense vertical construction type.

Single family, even town homes just wouldn't be uh plausible with some of the steep hillsides that we're dealing with on the remaining property.

Um, and and I know I'm going through these steps pretty quickly.

There was a remaining piece of property that we own, which is directly adjacent to uh Central Utah Bank right there along SR 92.

That piece we would request to be rezoned as as commercial.

With the road improvements that have come across Central Utah Bank and now with the new office building that's under construction, as that continues through over toward the view apartments, that piece of property is going to be primarily highest and best use as a commercial property.

Um it'll be segregated from the other properties that will be residential.

It has frontage along SR-92, it's on the corner of SR-92 and the main north-south connector road there.

And uh we would propose that as a as a part of the uh request for this area map amendment.

So that those are kind of big picture conceptual ideas we're talking about.

Um we've been involved on the mountain for a very long time, and and we feel like this according to our discussions with with Kim and Mike and Brittany and and staff that that this may be a positive step to get density out of the hillside to avoid some of the complications of developing that that hillside as well as properly planning that density down toward the transportation corridors that would be more appropriate for this residential type.

So happy to have a discussion, answer any questions that you may have, but those are kind of the general outline of of the requests that we would propose.

Can you zoom back to your to where you want to move it from that piece again?

I'm trying to make sure I understand.

I'm trying to make sure I understand.
