(Staff Presenters, Fred

Mayor Pro Tem Wilding stated that there had been a lot of discussion about challenges citizens

1

instances and provide Staff with direction to make the Home Occupation Code easier for citizens

2

to comply with.

3
4

Council Member Aston stated that the large lots in Bluffdale are amazing, but they also create

5

some issues. Some people would rather run a business on their lot than have animals. The City

6

Council supports home occupations, but not commercial operations being run out of a home. Some

7

home occupations were not allowed by the current code, but also did not pose a nuisance to

8

neighbors or problems for the City. The Home Occupation Code may need to be expanded in

9

those areas. For example, you cannot have a farm stand in Bluffdale, but she believes that residents

10

of western Bluffdale would love that option. If they live in the home, they should be able to sell

11

fruits, vegetables, or plants from their home. That could be allowed with a Conditional Use Permit

12

(“CUP”), but they cost $400, which is probably more than a farm stand would bring in. She did

13

not think that the Home Occupation Code needed to be completely rewritten, but it could be added

14

to.

15
16

Council Member Austin stated that the current code was too stringent. His wife just went through

17

the process to start a home occupation, and he was surprised at some of the requirements. He

18

believes that limiting home occupations can stifle potentially profitable businesses that could be

19

very beneficial to both Bluffdale and its residents. He had heard from multiple residents with home

20

businesses that they were initially told by the City that the use was approved, but they were now

21

being told that they were in violation. If that were the case, the original approval should be

22

honored, and Staff should be trained to correctly portray code requirements. Any changes should

23

be consistent across the board to ensure that the message is the same for everyone.

24
25

Mr. Kartchner reported that there may be differences based on the size of a property or site-specific

26

information, but agreed that requirements should be consistent within each specific group.

27
28

Council Member Lord stated that it is not easy to interpret rules. Some things can be a nuisance

29

in one part of the City and not others. It can be hard to define what a nuisance is, but it must be

30

clearly written so that citizens understand. A towing business on his street was storing vehicles in

2

BLUFFDALE CITY COUNCIL
WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES
Wednesday, May 13, 2026
1

their backyard, but they now only park the tow trucks there. That does not bother him because

2

they are no longer creating a nuisance by parking other cars at their home. There are a number of

3

larger properties with a shop in the backyard and a paved driveway. Their employees do not park

4

on the street, and the properties look nice. The cost of doing business is high, and it can be a real

5

advantage to business owners if they can use their property for that purpose. He did not want the

6

City to be viewed as having a heavy hand in regulating those businesses, and he would not want

7

to see them pushed out. However, other businesses can be a real nuisance to neighbors. He would

8

rather be too lax than too strict.

9
10

Council Member Aston stated that she had reviewed home occupation codes in other cities in the

11

Salt Lake Valley, and Bluffdale was quite lenient in comparison. Two tow trucks may be fine, but

12

what if there were 10? The City needed to specify the acceptable amount of “X” and then consider

13

how it can be misused. They also needed to be cautious and consider when a business is no longer

14

a home business but instead a commercial operation.

15
16

Council Member Austin stated that the Council should consider how the changes would impact

17

families in Bluffdale.

18
19

Council Member Smith agreed that there should be a line, but he was in favor of leniency for

20

people who have lived and operated a business in Bluffdale for decades but have recently realized

21

they are out of compliance. He would like to do what they can to help those residents continue

22

operating their business as long as it does not create a public nuisance.

Mayor Pro Tem Wilding reviewed Bluffdale City Municipal Code § 3.80.020, Definitions.
BUSINESS VEHICLE:
A business vehicle is any of the following:
i.

A vehicle or trailer that is primarily used for a home occupation business.

ii.

A vehicle or trailer that has the home occupation business advertised on it.

A vehicle or trailer located at the home occupation property for business purposes that is
in public view from a public right-of-way for more than four hours.

A business vehicle is not:
i.

A vehicle or trailer owned by the home occupation business; and

ii.

Stored at the home occupation business location.

8
9

Mayor Pro Tem Wilding stated that someone who operates an accounting business may own a

10

company truck and trailer, and asked if the above meant that they were not business vehicles. City

11

Attorney, Fred Donaldson, clarified that the intent of the provision was to specify that if a vehicle

12

is neither used by the home occupation business nor advertises the home occupation business, it

13

would not be considered a business vehicle. The homeowner can also own a vehicle that is not

14

used for business purposes and does not have a business logo on it.

15
16

Mayor Pro Tem Wilding stated that in the above scenario, the resident may own one vehicle with

17

company advertising and two that have no advertising, but all three are owned by the home

18

occupation business. Would they only have one business vehicle? Mr. Donaldson reported that

19

there would only be one business vehicle unless the two vehicles without advertising were used

20

for business purposes. Council Member Austin stated that the confusion may be cleared up by

21

adding the word “owner” to state “A vehicle or trailer owned by the home occupation business

22

owner.” Mr. Donaldson clarified that the business can own a vehicle that the business owner is

23

allowed to use or that is not used for business purposes. However, the language may need to be

24

modified to state the intent more clearly.

25
26

Council Member Lord stated that his brother-in-law purchased a vehicle in his company’s name,

27

but he is an attorney and does not have a home business. He asked if it would be considered a

28

business vehicle. Mr. Donaldson stated that it is not a business vehicle unless it is used for business

29

purposes. Mr. Kartchner stated that the IRS would classify it as a business vehicle. The business

30

is not in his home, and residents have the ability to bring business vehicles home. If he stores four

31

vehicles at his home, that is a storage issue, and the question is if he is now running a storage
4

WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES

1

business that stores business assets. An underlying question of any city’s home occupation code

2

is, what is a home occupation business.

3
4

Mayor Pro Tem Wilding asked if storage is regulated under § 11.160.030: Commercial Vehicles

5

in Residential Zones. Mr. Donaldson clarified that the referenced section regulates heavy vehicles

6

with a gross weight of 26,000 pounds or more. The example would be regulated as Open Storage.

7
8

Mr. Kartchner stated that some uses touch on the Home Occupation Code, but the resident does

9

not think of it that way because their business is elsewhere. For example, a semi-truck business

10

had been operating across from the church on 14400 South for several years. The business was

11

actually in Riverton, but the trucks were stored and maintained at a home in Bluffdale. Code

12

Enforcement was addressing the issue, but it was an example of people trying to skirt the law by

13

claiming that the business was registered at another location. Mayor Pro Tem Wilding remarked

14

that the business probably fell under several different sections of code, including Open Storage,

15

which is not compatible with residential use.

16
17

Mr. Donaldson reported that § 3.80.050: Minor and Major Home Occupation Table specified the

18

number of business vehicles and trailers allowed. Up to one business vehicle or trailer was allowed

19

for Minor Home Occupations and two for Major Home Occupations. Mr. Kartchner added that an

20

additional vehicle could potentially be allowed with a special exception.

21
22
23
24

Mr. Donaldson stated that the City has the following three types of Home Occupations:

Minor Home Occupations

25

Major Home Occupations

26

Major Home Occupations with up to two exceptions (per § 3.80.060: Special Exception

27

Table).

28
29

Mr. Kartchner reported that, per State code, the City cannot charge Minor Home Occupations for

30

a license. Planning Manager, Caitlyn Tubbs, added that the Major and Minor Home Occupation

31

categories were originally created to comply with that requirement. Minor occupations were those

5

Page 8 of 211

BLUFFDALE CITY COUNCIL
WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES
Wednesday, May 13, 2026
1

that had no discernible impact on the exterior of the home, and those licenses were issued at the

2

counter. Any other home business required a more extensive review and an additional fee. An

3

example of a Minor Home Occupation would be a home accounting service that holds all meetings

4

over Zoom.

5
6

Council Member Lord asked if the property size should be considered. Council Member Aston

7

agreed and asked if a two-acre lot should allow different uses from a one-acre lot. Mr. Donaldson

8

reported that it was not currently contemplated, but he and Ms. Tubbs had discussed the option of

9

having different rules based on lot size or zoning category. Mr. Kartchner remarked that it is a

10

complex issue, as the impact to the business owner must be weighed against the impact to the

11

neighbors. A balance must be maintained so the home occupation does not negatively impact

12

neighbors but allows the business owner to thrive.

13
14

Council Member Aston stated that she was on the Council when the semi-truck business was

15

initially brought to the City’s attention. Noise, dust, etc., from the business was extremely invasive

16

to its neighbors. Mayor Pro Tem Wilding asked if the noise ordinance was strict enough to address

17

those types of issues. Mr. Kartchner reported that it sets quiet time between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00

18

a.m. Council Member Aston remarked that the business was operating all day and night, and an

19

employee had to be paid to monitor the noise level at night. Council Member Austin stated that

20

noise could be an issue at any time. Mr. Donaldson reported that a maximum of 60 decibels was

21

specified in code. Mayor Pro Tem Wilding noted that a motor vehicle is 60 decibels. Mr.

22

Kartchner stated that because of the way decibels are measured, noise may be loud enough to have

23

a negative impact but not break the law.

24
25

Mayor Pro Tem Wilding asked for input on specific items that may need to be changed. For

26

example, § 3.80.070.B.6 prohibits storage, service, repair, sales, or rental of an ambulance, tow

27

truck, recreational vehicle, watercraft, automobile, ATV, or other motorized vehicles. Some

28

citizens had asked about storing WaveRunners, ATVs, or vehicles they rent out on places like Toro

29

in their backyard or garage. Mr. Kartchner stated that Ms. Tubbs had created a presentation on the

30

item that may be helpful to the discussion.

2

Mr. Donaldson reported that, per the Home Occupation Code, the property’s primary use is

3

intended to be residential, and the home occupation is a secondary or accessory use. If the primary

4

use of the property is a business, that is not appropriate for a residential zone. Council Member

5

Austin stated that the City needs to ensure that the business owner lives at the residence. Mr.

6

Donaldson indicated that there was once an issue with a person who operated their home

7

occupation on one property and then purchased a second home solely for the business, but claimed

8

they resided at both properties. The City investigated and determined that they did not reside at

9

the second property.

10
11

Ms. Tubbs reviewed the presentation showing different types of home occupations and their

12

potential impacts.

13

A stereotypical Minor Home Occupation is a home office for a piano teacher, accountant,

14

etc. They may have a nameplate on the exterior, but otherwise, neighbors would not know

15

it is anything other than a home.

16

17

A pumpkin patch may have additional vehicles or longer hours, but it is only a seasonal
use.

18

Other home occupations may have one company vehicle or some onsite material storage.

19

Major Home Occupations would have more vehicles, equipment, or additional storage.

20

Heavier use brings questions about whether the use is still accessory to the residence.

21
22

Council Member Aston stated that a neighbor had turned their residential property into a

23

commercial operation. The primary purpose of a residential property is to be a home. She was in

24

favor of making things more comfortable for home occupations, but the City needed to ensure that

25

residents were protected first.

26
27

The presentation also included lists of general provisions for all home occupations, prohibited

28

home occupations, and tables that had been reviewed earlier in the meeting.

29

BLUFFDALE CITY COUNCIL
WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES
Wednesday, May 13, 2026
1

Mr. Kartchner reported that one challenge with home occupations was that some state and federal

2

regulations can fly under the radar. For example, retail uses should have a sales tax number to

3

ensure that they are collecting sales tax. The City did not want to enforce those regulations, but a

4

provision of the Home Occupation Code was that the business must operate within them. Staff

5

was working to identify ways of verifying compliance, such as requiring a sales tax number for

6

retailers to ensure that a retail home occupation is registered with the State.

7
8

Council Member Austin suggested that the current tables be reviewed for additional discussion.

9

Mayor Pro Tem Wilding agreed and indicated that he would like to consider loosening some

10

restrictions and tightening others.

11

Occupations but ensuring that they are properly screened and do not park on public roads.

12
13

Council Member Aston stated that she liked the idea of moving away from a “one size fits all”

14

approach to lot sizes. There were many larger lots that could tolerate more uses without being a

15

nuisance to neighbors. Council Member Austin pointed out that the neighbors typically also have

16

larger lots.

17
18

Mayor Pro Tem Wilding recommended that the City Council email their ideas to Mr. Kartchner,

19

who could then discuss them with Staff and prepare recommendations for review at a future

20

meeting. After further discussion, it was decided that Ms. Tubbs would convert the tables to a

21

spreadsheet for easier review and comment.

For example, allowing more vehicles for Minor Home

22
23
24
25
26

Mr. Kartchner reported that over the past three weeks, he had spoken with multiple organizations

27

regarding water conservation and the current drought. He attended a Jordan Valley Water

28

Conservancy District (“JVWCD”) meeting where they indicated that they have 30,000 acre feet of

29

water available to allocate to new development across agencies. They may be able to develop

30

more water by acquiring water rights from irrigation companies, but that was the total amount

31

currently available for development. Additionally, they reported that water usage was increasing

1

even though development was not. Bluffdale utilized 20% more water than contracted in 2025,

2

which was concerning, as the JVWCD was considering mandating a 10% decrease from the

3

contract. The City is unique in that it has a number of unregulated, unmetered homes using

4

irrigation water.

5
6

Mr. Kartchner asked the City Council to consider whether additional landscape restrictions should

7

be implemented. For example, allowing a maximum of 10% turf. Other cities were offering

8

conversion grants like Flip Your Strip, and South Jordan’s program had been so successful that

9

they were seeing a change in water usage due to the efforts. Equipment grants can be offered for

10

devices that track moisture content and create an irrigation schedule based on need. At the JVWCD

11

meeting, they also discussed potentially prohibiting turf on commercial properties.

12
13

Bluffdale currently has a tiered culinary water rate schedule. Normal and moderate drought

14

conditions did not affect rates, but severe drought increased the rate, with additional increases for

15

extreme or critical drought conditions. Some cities were also increasing their Tier 4 base rate to

16

over $7. That may feel punitive, but it was an effort to encourage conservation. The Council could

17

consider adopting a resolution authorizing rate changes to be invoked in severe, extreme, or critical

18

drought states, but he neither advocated for nor discouraged that action.

19
20

Mayor Pro Tem Wilding asked if the fee table calculations were monthly. Mr. Kartchner

21

confirmed that the water rate is based on monthly usage. Mayor Pro Tem Wilding asked about the

22

impact on the City of using 20% more water than the contracted amount. Mr. Kartchner reported

23

that a penalty rate applies. Mayor Pro Tem Wilding asked if the additional cost was covered by

24

high water users being moved to higher tiers. Mr. Kartchner reported that it would be covered if

25

the City invoked severe and higher drought condition water rates.

26
27

Council Member Lord stated that the City was not in a severe drought, so higher fees would not

28

currently be charged. Mr. Kartchner confirmed that the City Council would have to pass a

29

resolution indicating that the City is in a severe drought, which would authorize Staff to change

30

the rates. Current conditions were normal to moderate. JVWCD did not say that the area was in

1

a severe, critical, or extreme drought, which he found surprising, as they were considering a 10%

2

decrease in usage that would typically indicate severe or higher drought conditions. Staff would

3

be following up with them to obtain more information and react accordingly.

4
5

In normal to moderate conditions, Bluffdale used 20% more water than contracted in 2025. Mr.

6

Kartchner found that curious because the City had normal usage the previous year. Council

7

Member Lord asked if the increase could be traced to residential or commercial users. Mr.

8

Kartchner reported that the increase was across the board. Council Member Aston asked if it may

9

have been due to a system upgrade. Mr. Kartchner stated that most of the City’s efforts had

10

lowered culinary water usage by increasing irrigation water use.

11
12

Mr. Kartchner reported that all the City’s water comes from the same source, and some residents

13

water their yards based on their right to one acre-foot of irrigation water. They technically have a

14

right to that water if it is available, but the area is in a situation where overwatering may result in

15

a culinary water shortage in the long-term.

16

2025 Annual Report. They won “Best of State” for the 17th time. Division Director, Talia Butler,

9

spoke at the recent Best Friends Animal Society Conference to highlight their achievement of being

10

no kill for 12 years. Salt Lake County Animal Services is one of the only municipal shelters in the

11

nation that has been able to achieve that honor and uphold the no-kill mission.

12
13

In 2025, Animal control officers responded to over 19,000 calls for service. The shelter’s team of

14

volunteers provided 7,500 hours of service for the area’s pets. Over 2,800 pets were adopted or sent

15

to rescue groups, and 4,000 pets were sterilized. The Pet Assistance on Wheels (“PAWS”) program

16

is offered countywide. The in-house clinic primarily services shelter pets but does offer programs

17

like Feline Fix for pets in the community.

9

No date or theme had been set for the 2026 event.

10

Petapalooza is the shelter’s largest annual adoption event. It was a two-day event with over

11

50 vendors, live entertainment, food trucks, and free microchips. Animals from all local

12

animal control agencies and rescue groups were featured, and 127 pets found homes.

13

The PAWS mobile clinic had been funded through 2026, but they hoped to continue it into

14

the future. It travels throughout Salt Lake County, providing free sterilizations, vaccinations,

15

and microchips to residents. It is a very popular program that fills up quickly.

16

interested in booking an appointment or learning more could email [email protected].

17
18

Council Member Austin stated that there were a lot more than 336 dogs in Bluffdale. Ms. Naylor

19

reported that the national average is 20% of dogs are licensed. They are always trying to increase

20

licensing compliance through education efforts. A new membership program will include the annual

21

license, vaccines, swag, and the potential to earn a free dental cleaning after a number of years. They

22

also have online licensing to make the process easier.

23
24

Council Member Austin asked if there was a way to better advertise the free clinics, as now residents

25

had to know about the program and check the calendar. Ms. Naylor stated that the PAWS program

26

only has a handful of vaccine appointments per clinic, which fill up quickly. Emailing is the best way

27

to schedule an appointment. They have monthly licensing events that do not include vaccines. The

28

Humane Society also has a low-cost walk-in clinic.

29
30

Mayor Hall stated that there is traditionally an annual vaccine clinic at City Hall. Ms. Naylor stated

31

that there was currently only one veterinarian on staff, so they had difficulty scheduling those events

32

without affecting shelter pets, but she would put in a request to schedule a 2026 event.

Council Member Lord asked about the percentage of dogs that are registered online versus in person.

3

Ms. Naylor stated that more licenses are issued in person as the shelter is already interacting with the

4

pet owner. Licensing avoids a violation and helps get the animal home faster. A large percentage of

5

the community also obtains licenses online, and that system sends yearly reminders. Council Member

6

Lord asked if the feature was advertised. Mayor Hall stated that a link to online licensing is on the

7

City website. Salt Lake County Animal Services sends information to the City monthly that is then

8

included in the newsletter and website.

10

Council Member Austin stated that when he has found it challenging to re-register his pet when it

11

gets a three-year rabies vaccine, because he does not always have that information available in years

12

two and three. It would be helpful for the County website to retain information on three-year

13

vaccinations. Ms. Naylor reported that the online system should save that information, and proof

14

should only be required every three years. However, she would follow up with their information

15

technology team to ensure that it is working properly.

May is National Affordable Housing Month. The presentation represented part two of a project that

26

the City developed in partnership with the Salt Lake County Housing Trust Fund under their 2023

27

interlocal agreement. Part one was the development of the Accessory Dwelling Unit (“ADU”)

28

Toolkit, and part two was an ADU Loan Program that would be available to all Bluffdale homeowners

29

interested in developing an ADU on their property.

including items like monetary support and rezoning to support moderate-income housing needs.

2

Bluffdale chose to accommodate ADUs.

3
4

Mr. Kartchner reported that Bluffdale had had three different redevelopment agencies (“RDA”) over

5

the past 25 years. The last RDA would end in 2026, but monies would continue to be spent for the

6

next few years. A requirement for each project area is that 20% of funds must be used to support

7

moderate-income housing. For example, one project area allocated 20% of collected funds to the

8

Bluffs Apartments. Unlike other RDA money that must be spent within the project area, the 20%

9

designated for moderate-income housing can be spent anywhere in the state. The Council recently

10

approved use of some RDA funds to encourage moderate-income apartments in the City. As a result,

11

a portion of a new apartment complex would be restricted to moderate-income housing. The City

12

also had the opportunity to partner with the County, and the evening’s presentation was for the next

13

step in that use of funds. Staff and the Council would discuss how the remaining monies were spent.

14

If a suitable use was not found within the City, it could be donated to the Olene Walker Housing Fund.

15
16

Ms. Tubbs reported that although monies could be used across the state, it was their preference to

17

keep the money in Bluffdale. To aid in that goal, the Salt Lake County Housing Trust Fund

18

recommended creation of an ADU Loan Program to support residents interested in developing an

19

ADU. Staff would be working with the County to coordinate social media outreach for the program.

20
21

If a Bluffdale homeowner is interested in developing an ADU on their property, the program provides

22

an opportunity for them to receive up to $150,000 toward its design, permitting, and construction.

23

The program has a $200 loan processing loan fee, and the loan term is 15 years. Borrowers will be

24

encouraged to rent to those making 80% area median income (“AMI”) or less by offering lower

25

interest rates for those residents. Rates are 1% for property owners willing to rent to tenants at 50%

26

AMI or below, 2% for 60% to 80% AMI, and 3% for 80% AMI or above. Repayment begins one

27

year after a Certificate of Occupancy is issued. Rental requirements are protected by a deed restriction

28

for 15 years or until the loan is fully paid off.

29
30
31
32

Loan forgiveness is available if the ADU is rented at the following levels for the full 15-year term:

80% AMI: 10% forgiveness

60% AMI: 15% forgiveness

50% AMI or lower: 25% forgiveness

Deed-restricted ADUs will receive priority consideration and funding, and the program is open to all

5

Bluffdale property owners who are eligible to construct an ADU on their property.

6
7
8
9

Requirements include:

The property must be owner-occupied and comply with all existing ADU requirements.

10

Proof of homeowners' insurance is required.

11

Deed-restricted ADUs will be inspected every three years to ensure that life safety standards

12

are maintained.

13
14

Ms. Tubbs reported that the program would incentivize development in Bluffdale, and the City was

15

grateful for its continued partnership with the Salt Lake County Housing Trust Fund.

16
17

Mayor Hall asked if the item needed a City Council vote. Ms. Tubbs clarified that the Council had

18

already allocated the funding, and the purpose of the presentation was to inform them of how the

19

money was being utilized. The next step would be to determine the community’s interest in the

20

program. If it were popular, it would continue. If not, the funds could be reinvested in another

21

program.

22
23

Mayor Hall asked about program management. Mr. Narvaez confirmed that Salt Lake County would

24

manage the program and ensure compliance, but Bluffdale staff would perform some items like

25

permits and inspections.

26
27

Mayor Hall asked if the County would help educate the public on the program. Mr. Narvaez stated

28

that the ADU Toolkit released in 2025 was the educational portion of the agreement. The ADU Loan

29

Program is an attainable housing fund of approximately $2.5 million to help Bluffdale meet its

30

moderate-income housing goals. Mayor Hall asked how the public would be made aware of the

31

program. Ms. Tubbs reported that the City and Salt Lake County Housing Trust Fund would be

32

coordinating social media posts and newsletter articles. It would also be posted on the City website.

16

Page 19 of 211

BLUFFDALE CITY COUNCIL
WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES
Wednesday, May 13, 2026
1

Residents who inquire about an ADU would be told about the program. Ms. Tubbs reported that most

2

printed copies of the ADU Toolkit were given to people who visited City Hall regarding their new

3

home and ended up submitting an application for an ADU as well.

4
5

Council Member Wilding asked if the loans had a loan-to-value requirement. Ms. Tubbs confirmed

6

that there was no requirement. Council Member Wilding stated that the current median income for a

7

family of four in Salt Lake County was approximately $98,000. If someone took advantage of the

8

program for a $150,000 loan and rented to a tenant who was at or below 50% AMI, they would be

9

eligible for a 1% interest rate and $37,500 in loan forgiveness. It was an amazing opportunity.

10
11

Mayor Hall stated that the program would work for multiple tenants at or below the income level; it

12

did not have to be the tenant for 15 years.

13
14

Council Member Aston stated that when the Council discussed the 20% funds, they wanted to ensure

15

that the money was spent in Bluffdale, and this program was a good fit for the area. She asked if loan

16

payments would be used to fund more loans. Mr. Narvaez stated that the idea was for a revolving

17

loan fund, so the program is self-sustaining until the City meets its housing policy goals or the contract

18

term ends. At the end of the interlocal agreement in 2028, they will discuss additional housing goals.

19

Mr. Kartchner indicated that the agreement could also be extended or modified at that time. If the

20

ADU Loan Program were successful, the City Council could also discuss additional funding.

21
22

Council Member Aston asked when the program would begin. Ms. Tubbs reported that they would

23

begin taking applications as soon as possible.

24
25

Council Member Aston asked how tenant income would be verified. Mr. Narvaez stated that the

26

application includes a checklist outlining the property owner’s responsibilities, and income would

27

primarily be verified via pay stubs, not tax returns. The property owner will be required to forward

28

tenant income verification to the County.

29
30

Council Member Lord asked if there was a maximum income level to apply for the loan. Mr. Narvaez

31

stated that the goal was to encourage rental to tenants who are at or below 80% AMI, but there were

32

no income restrictions for the property owner.

2

Council Member Aston asked if construction costs were verified during the loan process. Mr. Narvaez

3

stated that the property owner must pay all invoices and submit them for reimbursement. Council

4

Member Aston asked if there would be multiple reimbursements or if reimbursement occurs once the

5

project is completed. Mr. Narvaez reported that that was the borrower’s choice, but he anticipated

6

multiple reimbursements rather than one lump sum.

7
8

Mayor Hall asked if the County had any similar programs. Mr. Narvaez stated that, to his knowledge,

9

this would be their first ADU loan program. However, they consulted with other nonprofits about the

10

program. Mayor Hall stated that the City Council would like to interview the first person who utilizes

11

the program to build an ADU.

12
13

Council Member Austin asked what would happen if the property owner could not find a tenant that

14

met the income requirements specified when the loan was approved, if the property would need to

15

remain vacant until a suitable tenant was found, or if the interest rate would be increased. Mr. Narvaez

16

stated that the interest rate would be readjusted. If a qualifying tenant was found or the tenant’s

17

income changed, the interest rate would then be readjusted to the appropriate level based on their

18

income. Adjustments were not retroactive.

19
20

Council Member Austin asked how it could be a revolving program with loan forgiveness, as it

21

seemed that would deplete the fund. Mr. Narvaez agreed that forgiveness would deplete the fund.

22

The intention was to meet a current housing goal. It was also possible to amend the program to add

23

more money at a later time.

24
25

Council Member Austin remarked that someone could utilize the program to obtain a 3% interest rate

26

and then only rent to tenants with an income above 80% AMI, meaning they obtained a better interest

27

rate with no tenant restrictions. Mr. Narvaez agreed that this could happen but indicated that the goal

28

was to meet a housing policy need based on current zoning, which is primarily single-family in

29

Bluffdale. The City’s ADU ordinance was updated in 2019, and they wanted to build on that

30

momentum to both encourage ADUs and fund them short-term. Council Member Lord pointed out

31

that the borrower would not be eligible for forgiveness, so in that case, at least more of the allocated

32

funds would be returned.

details.

25
26

Council Member Lord asked why the Public Safety Fee would not be reduced rather than the

27

reappropriated fund balance. Ms. Thayer reported that the transfer from the General Fund had been

28

reduced. The purpose of the Public Safety Fee is to cover ongoing services, and increasing the transfer

29

would utilize one-time monies to cover increased Police contract costs. Council Member Lord stated

30

that if the total budget had been reduced so that the City did not need to dip into its reserves, he was

31

of the opinion that General Fund monies should be used instead of increasing the fee. Ms. Thayer
21

Page 23 of 211

BLUFFDALE CITY COUNCIL
WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES
Wednesday, May 13, 2026
1

stated that State law requires the General Fund balance to be between 5% and 35%, and with the

2

changes, it was only at 16%. However, it was a Council policy decision.

3
4

Mr. Kartchner stated that there was already a planned use of General Fund balance, which would

5

reduce the reserve account. He asked if the City Council wanted Staff to increase use of reserves,

6

which was the City’s rainy day fund, and use one-time monies to subsidize public safety and other

7

costs. The Tentative Budget indicated a use of fund balance of approximately $400,000. At the

8

Council’s direction, that amount could be transferred from the General Fund in order to reduce the

9

Public Safety Fee. However, there were long-term ramifications of using those one-time monies.

10
11

Council Member Lord stated that, to his understanding, the fee was being increased to cover the offset.

12

Mayor Hall pointed out that Ms. Thayer indicated in her presentation that there would still be a

13

transfer from the General Fund, and the fee had decreased. Ms. Thayer confirmed that it would

14

decrease by $19,000 due to the decrease in employee benefit costs, but not the full $100,00. The Fire

15

and Police Protection Fund was set up to be paid through property taxes and any monies that were

16

available for transfer from the General Fund, and any increase in service costs was tied to the Public

17

Safety Fee.

18
19

Council Member Lord stated that the City was currently looking at a $556,000 use of fund balance

20

and asked if the increased fee would offset that amount. Ms. Thayer clarified that there would still

21

be a deficit of $556,000 in the General Fund, but the Public Safety Fee was part of the Fire and Police

22

Protection Fund.

23
24

Mr. Kartchner reported that property tax revenues were increasing because the Eastern Bluffdale

25

Economic Development Area (“EDA”) had ended. What was previously booked as management

26

revenue from the EDA was now showing as property taxes. It was not an actual increase in property

27

tax revenue. The normal General Fund transfer was reduced to reflect that shift in income. The

28

established Public Safety Fee had only been changed based on the cost savings from employee

29

benefits.

30
31

Council Member Lord asked if the fee could be reduced if more revenue was found. Mr. Kartchner

32

stated that the City Council always had the option to increase the use of fund balance, but he was
22

Page 24 of 211

7.1

Ordinance 2026-03 to Update the City Code as follows: - Chapter 11.220.070.A
to Add Provisions for Gas Station Electronic Display Signs. A new section will be
added to allow electronic display signs for gas stations with a minimum display
interval of three (3) seconds. - Chapter 11.220.030 — to add a new definition for
“Gas Station Electronic Display Sign” to address this specific type of sign. Yesco,
Applicant. (Staff Presenter, Ellen Oakman)

Associated City Planner, Ellen Oakman, presented the Staff Report. Yesco, LLC, on behalf of

14

Maverik, Inc., had requested a Text Amendment to allow electronic display signs specific only to gas

15

station monument signs. The proposed new definition and sign category generally mirrored existing

16

language for static electronic numeric display signs, with the primary difference being the allowance

17

of a three-second display interval rather than the 12-hour interval allowed for static signs.

18

The proposed definition to Bluffdale City Code § 11.220.030: Definitions was as follows:

An electronic message center sign that:

Is incorporated into a monument sign and occupies less than 50% of the sign face;

26

Changes display no more frequently than once every three seconds;

27

Does not scroll, flash, blink, emit sound, or include animated copy or graphics.

Station Electronic Display Signs. They would only be allowed in non-residential zones.

31
32

The proposed gas station electronic display signs would be limited to gas station monument signs and

33

have a minimum three-second display interval. Brightness and operational standards would mirror

34

those of static electronic numbering signs. Electronic message centers have a minimum eight-second

35

display interval, but brightness is measured with different standards.

Aaron Cain spoke on behalf of Yesco and Maverik. Most gas stations offer different pricing

depending on how gas is purchased, and Maverik has created a Nitro program with special pricing.

8

The ability to display the two different price levels was essential in being able to present correct

Staff Reports, Additional Council Discussion, and Calendaring Items.

City Manager, Bruce Kartchner, continued the Work Session discussion on water usage. He had

22

directed Parks Department staff to use water judiciously while maintaining healthy grass and

23

plantings. In his opinion, homeowners may let their lawns die, but the City should have grassy places

24

where the community can come together for activities. The City had saved a lot of water over time

25

by changing to better irrigation controls that water based on moisture content rather than on a set

26

schedule. Much of Bluffdale’s irrigation water was Utah Data Center reuse water or from a

27

subterranean well. The City was trying to minimize its impact as much as possible.

28
29

There were three splashpads in Bluffdale, all of which were currently push-button activated.

30

However, the City could program the water to only cycle every five to 15 minutes. Other cities were

31

also restricting their splash pads’ hours of use. Instead of operating from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., for

32

example, the hours may be reduced to 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Mr. Kartchner recommended

24

Page 26 of 211

BLUFFDALE CITY COUNCIL
WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES
Wednesday, May 13, 2026
1

considering those types of restrictions to limit water use. One City splashpad drains into a tank, and

2

that water is reused for irrigation water. The other two drain into the canal.

3
4

Mayor Hall asked the Council to reach out to Staff to discuss the options. With the push buttons, the

5

splashpads are only in use when children are present. Mr. Kartchner stated that he would likely add

6

a small, five-minute delay as children sometimes repeatedly press the button. Mayor Hall stated that

7

it was possible parents did not bring their children to the splashpad until after lunch, but it is often a

8

family activity in the evening, and she did not want to restrict evening hours.

9
10

Council Member Aston stated that during the summer, families go somewhere immediately after

11

breakfast. It gets hot early. She did not have an issue with delaying the opening to 10:00 a.m.

12
13

Council Member Lord asked if hours could be based on temperature. Children are less likely to use

14

a splashpad when it is colder, although some will use it despite the weather. He liked the idea of

15

restricted hours, but a 12:00 p.m. opening time was too late.

16
17

Mr. Kartchner stated that the splashpads were not separately metered, but Staff intended to install

18

separate meters so the actual impact could be determined.

19
20

Mr. Kartchner apologized to residents for any anxiety caused by the flyer on backflow prevention.

21

The State Legislature passed a law prohibiting cross-connections with irrigation systems, which was

22

an issue both statewide and in Bluffdale. For example, in his neighborhood, all irrigation lines were

23

owned and operated by the HOA, but they were located in the homes’ backyards. Residents connect

24

their irrigation to the closest pipes, and they often have a culinary connection in the front yard so that

25

they can switch if necessary. His house was originally designed in that manner, which creates the

26

potential for an illegal cross-connection.

27
28

Homes with irrigation systems connected to culinary water must have an above-ground backflow

29

prevention device. Prior to the new law, they were installed below ground in green boxes that look

30

like other irrigation boxes. State law requires the devices to be tested yearly. Citizens had been asked

31

to conduct that testing over the years, but compliance was low, and the City did not have the resources

32

to force compliance. A Water Department employee had now been assigned to ensure compliance
25

Page 27 of 211

BLUFFDALE CITY COUNCIL
WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES
Wednesday, May 13, 2026
1

with State laws because a cross-connection and contamination of the City’s culinary water system

2

would be devastating. He urged residents to comply with the requirement, have their system tested

3

appropriately, and inform the City of the results. In cases like his, where there are two separate

4

systems and the irrigation system cannot be connected to culinary water, a backflow preventer is not

5

required.

6
7

Mayor Hall stated that an adjacent city was under a boil order due to second water contaminating their

8

drinking water. One person affected the entire city. Drinking water does need to be protected.

9
10

Mayor Hall asked if the City had information online regarding how to install irrigation lines. Mr.

11

Kartchner reported that there had been a lot of calls with similar questions, and responses were

12

delayed due to the higher-than-expected call volume. One reason there were so many calls was that

13

the City website did not have adequate documentation on the topic. Staff hoped to finish updating

14

the website with frequently asked questions and other information by the following week. He asked

15

for feedback on improving the documentation, as they intended to update the website regularly to

16

reflect commonly asked questions and current community needs.

17
18

Council Member Lord asked for clarification on cross-connections. He had a separate line for

19

secondary water with a physical hose connection to the sprinkler system. If he wanted to use culinary

20

water in his sprinklers, he would need to physically disconnect it from secondary and connect it to

21

culinary water. Was that a cross-connection? Mr. Kartchner clarified that Council Member Lord’s

22

system is sometimes referred to as a swing valve. A cross-connection is when you have the ability to

23

connect your irrigation system to both irrigation and culinary water simultaneously, which creates the

24

possibility of backflow and requires a prevention device. Council Member Aston stated that often,

25

residents will use secondary water for their lawn sprinklers and culinary water to drip-irrigate planter

26

beds. They are different systems and require a backflow preventer.

27
28

Council Member Lord asked about the average cost to inspect backflow devices. Mr. Kartchner

29

reported that the cost is approximately $60. Council Member Lord asked how residents can find a

30

company to test their device. Public Works Director, Shane Paddock, reported that the website will

31

include a link to the Utah Division of Water Quality, which maintains a list of 450 testing companies.
26

BLUFFDALE CITY COUNCIL
WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES
Wednesday, May 13, 2026
1

If a home has both secondary and culinary water available for irrigation, a backflow device is required.

2

If they only have culinary water, one is also required. If they do not have the ability to use culinary

3

water in their irrigation system, it is not required.

4
5

Council Member Lord stated that in his daughter’s neighborhood in Florida, all backflow devices

6

must be tagged after testing, so the test date is easy to determine. Mr. Kartchner stated that Utah did

7

not require a tag, but a certificate is issued at the time of testing.

8
9

Mr. Kartchner asked for the City Council’s feedback on what the City should do to help residents

10

conserve water moving forward, as there was a dramatic need to use less. Washington County had

11

grown dramatically, but its water usage had not grown at the same rate due to its waterwise

12

landscaping requirements. They have large park and recreation fields with green grass, but individual

13

homes have other types of landscaping than turf. At the Council’s direction, Staff could begin

14

working on similar requirements.

15
16

Mayor Hall suggested reducing the amount of sod allowed in commercial zones. Trees and bushes

17

are beautiful and use less water. Mr. Kartchner recommended prohibiting sod in commercial

18

applications. Council Member Aston stated that her favorite example was Mountain View Village.

19

It is beautifully landscaped and has no sod. She was in favor of modifying the commercial code with

20

that as a benchmark.

21
22

Mr. Kartchner stated that Tahoma 31 bermudagrass was becoming more widely available and uses

23

50% less water than other grasses. Once established, it can also go long periods without water. As

24

new parks are constructed in the City, they could become the standard. Mayor Hall recommended

25

testing it in a detention pond first. Mr. Kartchner clarified that it would be a consideration for new

26

construction and would be tested, but it was used extensively across the south. However, it does

27

spread and must be contained.

28
29

Mr. Kartchner asked if the City should consider modifying water rates. Mayor Hall asked if JVWCD

30

had changed their rates. Mr. Kartchner stated that they had not announced a severe drought yet, so

31

standard rates were in place. However, the City could unilaterally change to a different rate structure.

32

Other cities were increasing their normal rates, and one was increasing Tier 4 to $7 per 1,000 gallons.

Staff was directed to begin working on modifying commercial landscaping requirements, but water

3

remains steady.

4
5

Council Member Austin asked if a business use that needs sod for its operations would be required to

6

use artificial turf or be granted an exception. Mr. Kartchner reported that it should be a consideration

7

in code. Council Member Austin stated that most businesses would welcome not having to maintain

8

sod, but some businesses may need it.

9
10

Council Member Wilding asked about encouraging businesses to remove existing sod. Mr. Kartchner

11

stated that waterwise landscaping should be encouraged citywide. It may be beneficial to set aside

12

grant money in the Water Fund for a program similar to JVWCD’s “Flip Your Strip” to help cover

13

costs. “Flip Your Strip” only offers $2 per foot and does not cover the cost of plants, irrigation, etc.,

14

but it is an incentive.

15
16

Mr. Kartchner indicated that as a community becomes more aware of conservation and water usage

17

decreases, revenues also drop, but the cost of maintaining the infrastructure does not change.

18

Purchasing water is a small portion of the system’s expenses. As conservation increases, the rate per

19

1,000 gallons must also increase.

20
21

Mr. Kartchner reported that the 14400 South project was moving forward. The pilons for the thrust

22

wall were being installed, and they were restructuring the side wall to ensure that it supports the crane.

23

The lower section on the west side of the railroad tracks had been built up almost to the level of the

24

box culvert, and the slope was in place. If the Council was interested, he could arrange a tour with

25

City Engineer, Michael Fazio.

26
27

Work was also progressing on the Crump Hollow Trail and was expected to be completed in the

28

summer. It will include a bridge over the canal. They would also be trimming or removing trees

29

along the trail, and the area would continue to be developed as funds became available. Mayor Hall

30

thanked Staff for the alert that went out on the project earlier in the day. The Cinch Way Trail

31

overpass connecting to the County trail was also in process.

5

Bids had been received for the Plat K pickleball park in Independence, and they were moving forward

6

with installing the parking lot and extending the trail across the Rocky Mountain Power easement.

Budget Committee Report - May 2026
Welcome to the first report of the Bluffdale Budget Review Committee!
Who are the members of the Budget Review Committee? Members of the Budget Review Committee are
volunteers from the community. Each of the members has a background in various aspects of finance:
personal finance, corporate finance, and municipal finance. Members are selected by the Mayor with the
consent of the City Council. Importantly, the members are not paid City staff.
What is the purpose of the Budget Review Committee? The City Council created the Budget Review
Committee as an attempt to increase transparency with residents. We hold meetings that are open to the
public and noticed on the public notice website (though as a volunteer committee the meetings are irregularly
timed). City staff provides copies of preliminary budgets to the committee and the committee works with City
staff to help increase the presentation and transparency of the budget. The committee is also working with
City staff to produce helpful resources explaining facts about the City and general governmental budgeting
that may be unfamiliar to residents.
What is the Budget Committee Report? This report is an attempt to take major funds, departments, or
operations of the City and compare those to other peer or nearby Utah cities in a way that helps residents feel
like they understand Bluffdale and the way it operates.
"You didn't do this or you ignored that!" This is not meant to be comprehensive in any way, shape, or form! If
you would like us to look at something or think we have made a glaring error, please reach out or attend one
of our meetings. City staff have been incredibly helpful as we have asked poked and prodded at the budget.
They have explained things that we have seen, they have adjusted how they present items in the budget, and
they have adopted many suggestions made by the Committee.
Please understand, many things cities report are very specific to those cities. These metrics are not absolute
in that not all organizations define and capture the data in the same way. We are grateful to each of the
cities who provided data to the Committee.
If you have any questions or requests, please reach out to the Budget Review Committee! You can send any
requests or questions to the Budget Review Committee by emailing the chair of the Committee, Japheth
McGee at [email protected]. We would also recommend that you reach out to City Staff or elected

Full-time Equivalent Employees
City FTEs - Overall

Bluffdale grew from 4.41 City full-time equivalent employees ("FTEs") per
1,000 residents in 2021 to 5.22 in 2024. This largely represents filling
positions the City had already authorized in 2021 but had trouble filling.

City FTE Comparison
8.00
6.00

Spanish Fork and Springville had more than 6 FTEs per 1,000 residents,
Cottonwood Heights had significantly fewer at just under 3. Likely
explanations are related to the number of services the cities perform or
outsource to local districts. For example, Spanish Fork maintains a city fiber
network, electric system, water, and sewer in addition to typical city
services like, police, fire, and parks. Cottonwood Heights on the other hand
participates in special service districts for water, sewer, fire, and even
parks and recreation.

City FTEs - Police and Fire

Balancing investment in police and fire staffing requires weighing
cost efficiency, call volume and severity, and response times.
Bluffdale operates under a law enforcement services agreement
with the Saratoga Springs Police Department, a model designed to
provide greater resource flexibility while maintaining a cost-efficient
approach to policing.
Bluffdale’s incoming calls per FTE reflect this approach. Among the
cities analyzed, Bluffdale ranks near the top in workload per officer,
indicating a high level of personnel utilization. Consistent with this,
Bluffdale’s cost per incoming call is the second lowest in the group
and increased at an average rate of approximately 5.5% from 2021
to 2025.

Vineyard

Bluffdale had a dramatic increase in parks space over the prior five years. Even
fast growing Vineyard did not add park acreage at the same rate as Bluffdale.
Parks cost per FTE represents a combination of the cost of an FTE and the total
costs to service parks with the number of FTEs at the City. Bluffdale has nearly
the same number of parks employees as Vineyard but triple the park acreage!
Employees in Bluffdale are being asked to service more parks space per
employee.

NEED FOR THE COUNTY?
Counties are political subdivisions of the state

per Utah Constitution Article XI, Section 1.
Counties deliver state-mandated services.
State law differentiates the roles of cities
and counties.
3

Cities handle municipal services—counties
focus on regional functions.
Consolidation into cities reduces duplication

and allows counties to maximize efficiency
across jurisdictions.

Page 41 of 211

EXAMPLES OF SERVICES THE COUNTY PROVIDES
Jail and other criminal justice services, prosecution
and indigent defense.

CULTURE & THE ARTS
Administers grants and manages cultural facilities:
Abravanel Hall, Capitol Theater, Eccles Theater, etc.

ELECTIONS

CONVENTIONS & TOURISM

Runs the general election by statute. Contracts
with municipalities for municipal elections.

County-owned convention centers bring in out-of-state
conventions that generate sales tax.

HEALTH DEPARTMENT

REGIONAL PARKS & RECREATION

Provides immunizations, saftey protocols for
restaurants and businesses, clean up homeless
camps and other unsafe environments.

Maintains regional parks, trails, and open spaces. Operates
recreation centers and sports complexes.

CRIMINAL JUSTICE / PUBLIC SAFETY

LIBRARY SERVICES
AGING & ADULT SERVICES
Provides Meals on Wheels and runs senior centers.

Salt Lake County Library system serves most of the county,
with access to Salt Lake City and Murray libraries.

BEHAVIORAL HEALTH

PROPERTY TAX ADMINISTRATION

Manages mental health/substance abuse services.
Partners with providers. Designated by the state to
be mental health & substance abuse authority.

Collects property tax for all entities, most of which are not
part of Salt Lake County, and distributes funds.

Multiple jails? Multiple health departments?
Multiple clerk’s offices?

Salt Lake County delivers regional services on a
scale best served by county government.
Duplicating these services would be expensive,
inefficient, and create confusion across city
boundaries.

State law limits property tax revenue
increases to only “new growth” (e.g., new

Inflation in property values does not
increase revenue—rates are adjusted
downward to keep revenue flat.
Population growth increases demand for

When my property values go up, does my property tax automatically go up?

No - it does not. Utah’s system is designed so that rising property
values alone do not automatically raise your property tax bill. Each
year, the County Auditor calculates a certified tax rate for every
taxing entity (county, city, school district, etc.). That rate is adjusted
downward so the entity collects the same total revenue as the prior
year—plus new-growth revenue from new construction.

PUBLIC SAFETY NEEDS
OVERVIEW
• Not a single new bed has been built since 2001, even as the
county’s population has grown by nearly 300,000 and is expected
to grow to 1.4 million by 2040.
• Approximately one-fifth of the jail’s beds are in Oxbow, a
failing facility that urgently needs to be replaced.
• At the same time, homelessness and mental illness have
increased, and our jail has become the state’s default mental
health provider.
• Over the past ten years, the average person booked into the jail
has been booked seven times prior, driving up costs while
leaving underlying needs unmet.

Page 55 of 211

PUBLIC SAFETY NEEDS

JAIL REMAINS AT CAPACITY

Although beds have
increased after opening
Oxbow’s third pod, the
jail continues to
operate at or near
capacity every day.

Reopening the third pod
at Oxbow added 184
individuals, placing
additional pressure on
aging infrastructure
and maintenance
systems.

Increased enforcement
due to SLC Public Safety
Plan has meant an
increase in bookings
and individuals with
multiple charges is
placing greater demands
on judicial processing.

Page 56 of 211

PUBLIC SAFETY NEEDS

GOALS:

Rebuild capacity from Oxbow Jail (552 beds) at main facility
Add new beds to meet growth and safety demands
Expand mental health treatment from 88 → 160 beds
Create a stepdown unit (100 beds) for re-entry support
Look at a lower-security facility to save on costs to provide mental health,
substance use, job training and wraparound services for low-level
offenders in order to reduce recidivism.

Parameters Resolution for Water Revenue Bonds

This memorandum is to explain the parameters resolution that authorizes the issuance and
sale of not more than $15 million in Water Revenue Bonds needed to finance improvements
to the City’s water system. Those improvements include a new water tank and pump station
and an effluent water project. The water tank and pump station project will help provide
adequate water pressure and fire flows in our Zone 2 areas more cost effectively than we
currently can. The effluent water project will help provide additional water resources as water
supply becomes a growing concern.
In personal finances and business finances debt should be avoided, but for municipal uses
bonds can be more equitable. Bonds ensure those who will use the water system in the future
also share in paying for it, while allowing the improvements to be built today. The City was
also awarded some federal funding in the amount of $750,000 that will be used.
The repayment of the bonds will be done mostly through revenues generated by the Water
Operating Fund, which is an enterprise fund (a fund that acts like a business) that is separate
from the general fund, and some will be paid back by the Water Impact Fee restricted fund.

FY2027 Budget Discussion

This memorandum is to provide an update on some minor adjustments that have occurred
since the last FY2027 budget discussion. Within the General Fund, expenditures were adjusted
by increasing Engineering books, subscriptions, and memberships by $2,500 to align with
actual spending trends. In the Capital Projects Fund, additional expenditures include
increasing $30,000 for miscellaneous traffic calming measures to continue ongoing efforts,
and adding $90,000 for a Battalion Chief vehicle associated with a new personnel request in
the Fire Department. For the Fire and Police Protection Fund, revenues from the Public Safety
Fee are proposed to increase by another $185,000 to support the ongoing costs associated
with a requested change in service level to add a full-time Battalion Chief position and related
personnel costs.
Additional details are provided in the included summary and updated budget document. If
you have any questions or would like further information on any budget item, we’re happy to
provide that.

Internal Control Risk Assessment

This memorandum is to provide an overview of the Internal Control Risk Assessment for the
2026 fiscal year. For background, the Office of the State Auditor developed a form with a fivelevel assessment score that is intended to communicate the entity’s risk of undetected fraud,
abuse, or noncompliance. The levels are based upon points assigned to each of the
recommended measures. Since some measures are more effective than others, the most
effective measures are assigned the most points. As more measures are adopted the score
improves. The higher the score, the lower the risk.
This Fraud Risk Assessment form is completed by City Staff and presented to the City Council
annually. Internal controls and separation of duties are key parts of the assessment. Our score
remained the same as last year with a self-assessed score of 365 out of 395 total; the City
continues to be at a very low risk level measured on this scale.

RE:

Adoption of New Impact Fee Facility Plan

Utah Law 11-36a - Impact Fees Act, allows municipalities to assess an impact fee on new
development to cover the cost of new infrastructure needed by them. To do this, the city must
adopt an Impact Fee Facilities Plans that identifies the improvements needed to serve new
development. The costs of these facilities are added up and divided by the projected growth over
the next 10 years resulting in the Impact Fee to be charged to each development.
Existing deficiencies cannot be funded using impact fees and only projects that will be built within
the next 10 years can be included in the calculations.
The City of Bluffdale regularly updates our Impact Fee Facility Plan with the emergence of new
projects or substantial developments. The last major revision was in early 2024. Since then, we
have completed several projects, identified the need for new projects, and revised the growth
projections based on current trends.
One major change with this revision is the removal of the Storm Water Impact Fee. We have
completed most of the projects previously funded by Impact Fees. There is a regional pond needed
near Redwood Rd and Porter Rockwell Blvd, but that is expected to happen outside of the 10 year
window for fee calculations.
All other Impact Fees have increased with this update. The level of service for each category has not
change, but the projected amount of new growth to pay for those projects has decreased.
We recommend that the Impact Fees be adopted as presented.

“Impact fee” means a payment of money
imposed upon new development activity as a
condition of development approval to mitigate
the impact of the new development on public
infrastructure.
11-36a-102(8)(a)

Impact Fee
Purpose

• Fee is only charged to new growth to pay for
projects needed by growth.
• Existing deficiencies and maintenance cannot
be funded with Impact Fees.
• The level of service for each category remains
constant. Impact fees cannot be charged to
increase the level of service currently
provided.

Page 124 of 211

Impact Fees can be charged to the following:

Impact Fees

• New Home
• New connection to City infrastructure
• Not a remodel
• Proposed charging for detached ADUs as
multi-family units.
Bluffdale reviews and updates impact fees
every few years and does minor revisions
more often as needed.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this IFFP and IFA is to fulfill the requirements of Utah Code Title 11 Chapter 36a (Impact
Fee Act) to enable the City to enact impact fees within the City for the following utilities: Parks &
Recreation, Public Safety, Transportation, and Water. The City previously charged a Storm Drain impact
fee. However, it has been removed in this impact fee update because most of the projects that qualify
for impact fee funding have either already been funded with impact fees or the City plans to use other
sources. Also, most properties retain their own water with minimal impact on the system. The following
is a summary of the IFFP inputs. The IFFP and IFA will identify the maximum allowable impact fee. The
City Council may choose to adopt a fee lower than the maximum but not higher.
SERVICE AREA
The Service Area for each of the four impact fees is the entire City.
DEMAND ANALYSIS
The City estimated demand over the next ten years by identifying the areas which are most likely to
develop. Unit counts were assigned to each area based upon current and anticipated land use. Units
were then converted to Equivalent Residential Units or Connections (ERU or ERC). One ERU is one single
family home. Apartments, townhomes, and detached ADUs are considered multi-family homes and
would be equivalent to 0.75 ERUs. Commercial ERU’s are defined as 9,000 square feet. Currently the City
has 6,188 ERCs and is projected to add 1,333 ERCs/ERUs in the next ten years. Of that number, 1,170 are
projected to be residential units and 163 are projected to be non-residential. In addition, this growth
pattern is projected to add 19,273 new daily traffic trips.
For more detailed methodology see Section 3: Demand Analysis.
LEVEL OF SERVICE
The Impact Fee Act (Act) requires that the City identify the current level of service (LOS) for each utility.
The following is a summary of the LOS for each utility. Greater detail can be found Sections 4-8.


Parks & Recreation: Investment ($) / Residential ERU: $9,900
Public Safety:
o Facility (Residential and Commercial): Square Feet of Building Space / ERU: 4.61 SF
o Equipment (Commercial): Equipment ($) / Commercial ERU: $3,621
Transportation: Service Level C and above for roads

Table 5. Water New Projects

FUNDING OF FUTURE FACILITIES
The City has plans to issue debt for future water facilities. The interest carry cost has been included in the
calculation of the impact fees. The City has been successful in receiving any grant funds for projects and
will continue to seek these funds in the future. Should grant funds be received which will fund any of the
projects in this report, the City will revisit the impact fee to ensure compliance with the Act. Currently,
the City anticipates meeting the LOS for each system by funding new projects with cash. Impact fees are
a critical component of generated that proportional cash to fund or repay future projects.
MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE IMPACT FEES
The following are the maximum allowable impact fees for each utility.

Parks & Recreation: $9,900/Residential ERU (single-family detached), & $7,425/multi-family
residential (attached residential units and ADUs)
Public Safety:
o $2,724/Residential ERU
o $6,345/Commercial ERU (per 9,000 sq ft)

DEMAND ANALYSIS
The demand over the next ten years was estimated by the City using Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) data to
identify how many additional households developed as well as new commercial square footage that will
be developed in the next ten years. Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) are specialized geographic units used by
planners to model travel behavior, forecast traffic volumes, and analyze commuting patterns. Built from
Census Bureau data (blocks, tracts), they represent distinct areas with homogeneous land use—such as
residential or commercial districts—and act as the foundational spatial unit for transportation planning
models. The table below provides a summary of the ERCs estimated for commercial and residential. One
ERU is one single family home. Apartments, townhomes, and detached ADUs are considered multi-family
homes and would be equivalent to 0.75 ERUs. This analysis determined there would be 1,333 new
ERC/ERUs (1,170 residential and 163 non-residential) and 19,273 new daily trips. One commercial
ERC/ERU is equivalent to 9,000 sf.

PARKS & RECREATION IFFP & IFA
Bluffdale City provides park and recreation facilities to its citizens. This section will describe the following
items in accordance with the Act for Parks & Recreation:







service area,
demand within the service area,
the current level of service,
excess capacity in the current system to meet demand,
future facilities required to meet demand,
funding plans for future facilities,
the maximum allowable impact fee new residential growth would pay to cover the proportionate
share of excess capacity and new facilities, and
the staff recommendation for impact fees to be charged.

SERVICE AREA & DEMAND
The service area for the Parks & Recreation impact fee is the entire City. The projected demand within
the service area is 1,333 new residential units or ERUs over the next 10 years. Parks & Recreation impact
fees are only charged to residential units.
CURRENT LEVEL OF SERVICE
The unit of measurement for the LOS is investment per residential unit or ERU. The LOS for Parks &
Recreation was calculated through an inventory of all current Parks & Recreation facilities including the
monetary value of these facilities. The value of these facilities is currently $58,768,050. Calculation details
can be found in Appendix A: Parks and Recreation Values. This total value was then divided by the current
number of residential ERUs in the City which is 5,936. The current LOS for Parks & Recreation is $9,900 of
investment per ERU (single-family). Multi-family residential is equivalent to 0.75 ERUs, thus the multifamily residential fee would be $7,425.
EXCESS CAPACITY, FUTURE FACILITIES, & FUNDING PLAN
Because the LOS for Parks & Recreation uses the value of all current facilities, there is no excess capacity
in the system.
In order to maintain the LOS of $9,900/ERU with an additional 1,333 ERUs within the service area, the City
would be required to invest $13.2m in new facilities. The City will utilize taxes, fees, impact fees, grants
and may use bonds to construct future facilities. Although debt may be used, the City has not assumed
any interest expense in this calculation. The City may choose to reduce the impact fee which will reduce
the need for this level of investment.

Table 11. Public Safety Equipment LOS

EXCESS CAPACITY, FUTURE FACILITIES, & FUNDING PLAN
Because the LOS for Public Safety uses the value of all current facilities, there is no excess capacity in the
system.
The City plans to build an additional fire station in the near future to maintain the facility LOS of 4.61 per
ERU. This new station is expected to be 18,000 square feet and cost approximately $12m. The City also
plans to remodel approximately 4,000 sq ft of the City Hall basement to accommodate police. The cost
of this remodel is estimated at $1m. Based on the existing LOS, the new fire station and the basement
remodel will serve 4,772 ERUs. With an additional 1,333 ERUs within the service area in 10 years, the new
station should serve growth beyond the next 10 years. In order to provide rolling stock for commercial,
the City will buy one fire truck at $590k in the next several years.
The City would utilize taxes, fees, impact fees, grants and may use bonds or equipment leases to construct
and/or acquire future facilities and/or equipment. Although debt may be used, the City has not assumed
any interest expense in this calculation.
MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE IMPACT FEE & STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The maximum allowable impact fee that can be charged for future facilities is $2,724 per ERU.a The
maximum allowable impact fee that can be charged to commercial ERUs for equipment is an additional
$3,621. Commercial ERUs would thus pay $6,345 per ERU.
City staff recommends charging the maximum allowable impact fee for public safety.

TRANSPORTATION IFFP & IFA
Bluffdale City owns transportation facilities within the City to provide service to its constituents. The State
and County also own transportation facilities. These non-city owned facilities are considered in meeting
the demands of the system. However, funding of these facilities are not included in this analysis. This
section will describe the following items in accordance with the Act for Transportation:







service area,
demand within the service area,
the current level of service,
excess capacity in the current system to meet demand,
future facilities required to meet demand,
funding plans for future facilities,
the maximum allowable impact fee new growth would pay to cover the proportionate share of
excess capacity and new facilities, and
the staff recommendation for impact fees to be charged.

SERVICE AREA & DEMAND
The service area for the Transportation impact fee is the entire City. The projected demand within the
service area is 1,333 new ERUs which will generate 19,273 new daily trips between 2025 and 2035.
Specific details on inputs into the Transportation impact fees are provided below.
TRIPS
The unit of demand for transportation impact is the vehicle trip. A vehicle trip is defined by the Institute
of Transportation Engineers (ITE) as a “single or one-direction vehicle movement with either the origin or
the destination (exiting or entering) inside a study site”. The total traffic impact of a new development
can be determined by the sum of the total number of vehicle trips generated by a development in a typical
weekday. This trip generation number or impact can be estimated for an individual development using
the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 12th ed. (2025). ITE’s trip data is based on data collection at numerous
sites over several decades.
An additional consideration is that certain developments generate pass-by trips. Pass-by trips are stops
taken on the way from one development to another. An example of this is someone stopping at a gas
station on the way home from work. The pass-by trip is still counted at the gas station access. However,
the pass-by trip was completed by a vehicle already on the road due to other developments.
Pass-by trips do not add additional traffic to the roadway and, therefore, do not create additional impact.
Many land-use types in the ITE Trip Generation Manual have a suggested reduction for pass-by trips where
applicable. In each case, the trip reduction rate will be applied to the trip generation rate used in the IFA.

CUT-THROUGH TRIPS
Trips that do not have an origin or destination within Bluffdale City need to be removed from the impact
fee calculation. For example, if the driver of a vehicle starts a trip in Lehi, travels through Bluffdale, and
ends that trip in Riverton, this trip adds traffic to a Bluffdale roadway. However, the cost of the
incremental congestion it adds to Bluffdale City roadways cannot be recovered through impact fees.
The travel demand model developed specifically for the Bluffdale Transportation Master Plan was used to
determine cut-through percentages on Bluffdale City roadways. A “select link” analysis was performed to
determine cut-through percentages. This analysis examines a specific roadway link and traces the origins
and destinations of every vehicle trip on that link. All vehicle trips that had both an origin and destination
outside of Bluffdale City were totaled, then divided by the total link volume to obtain the cut-through
percentage. This analysis was performed on roadways within Bluffdale City that have a planned
improvement project that is impact fee eligible.
Roadways within Bluffdale City were found to have cut-through rates ranging from 0 to 18%. Roadways
that will connect adjacent municipalities or regional roadways, such as 14600 South, had higher cutthrough rates due to connectivity to other jurisdictions.
EXISTING OVERCAPACITY
If a project is identified for a roadway that is already operating with volumes in excess of the acceptable
capacity, the volume of existing traffic that is above capacity is accounted for in calculating the percent of
project cost that is eligible for inclusion in the impact fee. The volume of existing traffic that exceeds
existing capacity is subtracted from the volume of future traffic that exceeds existing capacity when
determining the amount of new development-related traffic projected to use the newly created roadway
capacity.
INTERSECTION PROJECTS
If trips resulting from new growth require an intersection to be upgraded, the full cost of the intersection
is impact fee eligible. If it weren’t for new development, the existing intersection configuration would be
adequate. Thus, excess capacity is not accounted for with intersection projects.
CURRENT LEVEL OF SERVICE
BACKGROUND
Level of Service (LOS) is a term that describes the operating performance of an intersection or roadway.
LOS is measured quantitatively and reported on a scale from A to F, with A representing the best
performance and F the worst.
The Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), 7th ed. (2022) methodology was used in this analysis to remain
consistent with “state of the practice” professional standards. The capacity of roadway segments is
determined based on the number of lanes and/or functional classification of the roadway. The roadway
LOS is then determined by comparing the actual traffic volumes with the capacity. As noted in the
Bluffdale TMP (2020), Bluffdale City “has adopted a LOS C for all municipal roads and streets” (not
2026 IFFP & IFA

14

Page 163 of 211

including intersections), and “LOS D is the threshold for state roads in urbanized areas”. For local and
collector roads, LOS D – F are considered failing and are evaluated for mitigation measures to bring the
level of service up to an acceptable level. For arterial roads, LOS E – F are considered failing and are
evaluated for mitigation measures to bring the level of service up to an acceptable level. Table 12
summarizes the maximum acceptable daily capacities (LOS D and C) for arterial and collector roadway
segments used in the Bluffdale TMP (2020).

Table 12. Planning level roadway level of service thresholds

The proposed LOS provides a standard of evaluation for roadway conditions. This standard will determine
whether or not a roadway will need improvements. According to Utah State Code Title 11, Chapter 36a,
Section 302:
“(b) A proposed level of service may diminish or equal the existing level of service.
(c) A proposed level of service may:
(i) exceed the existing level of service if, independent of the use of impact fees, the
political subdivision or private entity provides, implements, and maintains the means to
increase the existing level of service for existing demand within six years of the date on
which new growth is charged for the proposed level of service; or
(ii) establish a new public facility if, independent of the use of impact fees, the political
subdivision or private entity provides, implements, and maintains the means to increase
the existing level of service for existing demand within six years of the date on which new
growth is charged for the proposed level of service.”
As noted in the Bluffdale TMP (2020), the proposed LOS threshold for Bluffdale is LOS C and D. Therefore,
improvements are recommended and eligible for impact fees for roadways that are projected to operate
at LOS D (for municipal roads), E, or F in the future. It should also be noted that UDOT has many roads
within the City. Per UDOT policy, they use service level D. The City cannot control UDOT’s LOS.
EXISTING ROADWAY CONDITIONS
Existing roadway conditions were determined by using data collected by Bluffdale City, METHODS, the
Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT), the Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC) Regional
Transportation Plan (RTP) (2023 – 2050), and other previous studies. The traffic volumes from the travel
demand model were compared with each roadway capacity to identify the LOS of each segment.
The existing LOS of major roadways in Bluffdale City is shown in Figure 1. As shown, most of the major
City-owned roadways are currently operating at an acceptable LOS (C or better) other than:

14600 South; 1690 West to 1000 West

Figure 1. Existing (2025) Roadway LOS and ADT

FUTURE ROADWAY CONDITIONS
Future traffic volumes were projected using the travel demand model. METHODS used the latest model
from WFRC, which is the local metropolitan planning organization (MPO), and refined it to better reflect
conditions in Bluffdale and the surrounding areas. The existing traffic volumes and data from planned
developments and land uses were used to adjust the model to estimate future traffic volumes. The model
was developed to estimate future volumes in 2035, assuming a no-build condition, meaning that no City
roadway improvements were assumed. A no-build scenario is intended to show what the roadway
network would be like in the future if no action is taken to improve the City roadway network. The future
(2035) no-build LOS is shown in Figure 2. As shown in the bullet below, there is one segment of Cityowned roadway that is anticipated to deteriorate to LOS D (for municipal roads), E, or F. In addition, there
are several new roads that will be needed to accommodate future development.

minus impact fee payments made to construct the roads is provided in the table below. These facilities
will be utilized as part of the system to meet the future demand. See Table 7A in Appendix B for details

FUTURE FACILITIES & FUNDING PLAN
Bluffdale will need to construct the facilities listed below to meet future demand of current residents as
well as new growth.
FUTURE PROJECTS
Poor levels of service on roadways are generally mitigated by building new roads or adding travel lanes.
In some cases, additional lanes can be gained by re-striping the existing pavement width. This can be
accomplished by eliminating on-street parking, creating narrower travel lanes, or adding two-way leftturn lanes where they don’t currently exist. Improvements can also be made at intersections to improve
LOS by adding turn lanes or by changing the intersection type or the intersection control. At signalized
intersections, methods to improve intersection LOS include additional left- and right-turn lanes and signaltiming improvements.
The existing and future (2035) no-build scenarios were used as a basis to predict the necessary projects
to include in the IFFP. For the purposes of this IFFP, only projects that are planned to be completed by
2035 will be considered. Table 14 and Table 15 show City projects expected to be constructed by 2035 to
meet the demands placed on the roadway network by new development. These projects are included in
the IFFP analysis. UDOT projects will be funded entirely with state funds and are therefore not eligible for
impact fee expenditure and are not included in this analysis. Projects planned to be completed by 2035
are shown in Figure 3.
The Impact Fees Act allows for the inclusion of a time price differential to ensure the future value of costs
incurred at a later date are accurately calculated to include the costs of construction inflation. This Impact
Fee Analysis (IFA) includes an inflation component to reflect the future cost of facilities.b The impact fee
analysis should be updated regularly to account for changes in cost estimates over time.

Costs were inflated assuming a rate of four percent and that projects would be completed in 2030.

PROJECT COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO FUTURE GROWTH
The total cost for all projects is estimated to be $137m. Only a portion of the total cost is impact fee
eligible. Some projects are expected to be partially or fully funded by developers. Funding for regional
projects can also come through other sources, such as the local metropolitan planning organization,
UDOT, or the County. The City will need to find funding to cover the portion of the projects that are not
impact fee eligible and are not fully funded by developers or outside sources. The cost due to future
growth can be shared by new development through the assessment of transportation impact fees.
The amount of each project to be funded by impact fees varies depending on the cut-through traffic,
projected traffic volumes, and capacity of each roadway.
The impact fee eligibility of each project was calculated by dividing the total new development-related
component of the future (2035) traffic volume that exceeds existing capacity by roadway capacity added
2026 IFFP & IFA

with construction of the proposed project. This eligibility percentage was then multiplied by the project
cost to calculate the impact fee eligible cost for each project. The following formulas outline how the
impact fee eligible cost was calculated:

A summary of the costs and impact fee eligibility of each project is shown in Table 16. As shown, the total
impact fee eligible cost for planned Bluffdale City projects expected to be completed by 2035 is $7.2m.
See Table 7B and Table 7C in Appendix B for additional details on how the impact fee eligible portion of
each project was determined.

industrial facilities. Flex space is not included in this land use. This land use includes the land uses defined
by ITE numbers 100-199.
Office: This includes all office types including larger office parks and medical-dental offices.
Flex: ITE defines flex space as a "business park.” A business park consists of a group of flex-type or
incubator one- or two-story buildings served by a common roadway system. The tenant space is flexible
and lends itself to a variety of uses. The rear side of the building is often served by a garage door. The
space may include offices, retail and wholesale stores, restaurants, recreational areas and warehousing,
manufacturing, light industrial, or scientific research functions. A common mix is 20 to 30 percent
office/commercial and 70 to 80 percent industrial/warehousing.
For a land use type that does not fit easily into the categories in Table 18, the City may choose, at its
discretion, to assess impact fees at the rate of $468.18 per Daily Trip as determined by the accepted
development Traffic Study.

Caitlyn Tubbs, Planning Manager
May 21, 2026
May 27, 2026
The Applicant proposes amendments to Bluffdale City Code (BCC)
Chapter 3.40 “Retail Fireworks Outlets” to reflect current state-level
licensing requirements and contemporary storage methods and to allow
the seasonal sale of fireworks as a permitted temporary use in
commercial and industrial zones.
Joee Witter
Caitlyn Tubbs

RECOMMENDATION: To approve Ordinance 2026-05 for text amendments as recommended by the
Planning Commission on May 20, 2026.
BACKGROUND: The Applicant proposes amendments to Bluffdale City Code (BCC) Chapter 3.40 “Retail
Fireworks Outlets” to reflect current state-level licensing requirements and contemporary storage
methods and to allow the seasonal sale of fireworks as a permitted temporary use in commercial and
industrial zones.
The proposed amendments would update Bluffdale’s fireworks regulations by recognizing outdoor
fireworks sales as a permitted temporary use and by revising Chapter 3.40 to better align local
requirements with current Utah law and State fire and life-safety standards. The proposal would also
remove the separate salesperson license provisions, simplify the insurance requirement, update
terminology from “license assessor” to “Business License Official,” and revise storage language to
allow approved steel shipping containers for commercial storage.
Through this updated code, fireworks retailers would first need to proceed through the Temporary Use
Permit (TUP) process outlined in BCC Sections 11.180.030 and 11.180.040, including providing a
description of the proposed use and a description of the site layout. Following the TUP approval, the
retailer would be able to obtain a business license to sell their fireworks.
SB 232 Consideration - Impact to the Family:
As required by Senate Bill 232 (2026), Bluffdale must consider the impact any potential ordinance
changes could have on families prior to taking action.

Page 202 of 211

FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL: Zoning text amendments are a legislative decision of the City Council,
after receiving a recommendation from the Planning Commission. Broad discretion is given to the
City’s Land Use Authorities when making land use decisions. The Planning Commission held a public
hearing on May 20, 2026, and forwarded a unanimous positive recommendation to the City Council.
