Ata a minimum, hope that the city council will increase the minimum size of the lots that developers can put a home on. An 8,000 s.f. lot is ridiculously small for the very large homes that are being put on them (i.e. the horrible North Canyon development by Brighton I'd love to see Val Verda Maintain it's agricultural roots by limiting building. Ideally I'd like to see lots smaller than 1 acre be prohibited from subdividing however as a proponent of property rights I wouldn't be angry about lots as small as 1/2 acre being allowed as a compromise. Ultimately, I'd like property owners to have the freedom to garden or keep animals as they would have been allowed to do as little as 25 years ago. Yes, agree that it's not feasible to have a horse on a .2 acre lot with a house but concessions to current laws should be allowed to enable property owners the ability to keep a greater number of chickens, perhaps a few sheep if lot size is feasible or perhaps even a goat..again, if their lot can reasonably support such animals. The fact is that there is already Wandering animal' ordinances along with noise ordinances and other laws that protect neighbors from unwanted intrusions. I'd like to see Bountiful make a safe-haven for individuals who want a more rural feel to their neighborhood. lam confident that if you #1 maintain a minimum lot requirement of no les than 1/2 acre and loosen silly restriction's you will find that you still have the ability to protect neighboring properties from unwanted intrusions while giving others the ability to enjoy their land to the extent their land will enable them to.

Crime rate seems to be increasing. la already addressed my concern about the roads. I would say that it really is just roads, sidewalks seem to be deteriorating but nothing is Ifeel we have SO many developments changing and new additions in Davis County. This area is unique as it is now. There is no need to change or upgrade an area that is not broken, there is also no need to spend the money. This money could be donated or used in our nearby schools and/or parks to create growth in our youth. The the builders lack of concern about keeping val verda area a rural area. My main concern is safety for my children on the busy roads around val verda. However our neighborhood does not have sidewalks. It would be a major safety benefit for sidewalks to be poured in these areas, due to the busy area Val Verda Having it become over populated and taking away our quite clean neighborhood. l'am concerned that we will have big homes on small areas.

Nice to know you want Large apartment complexes and rental complexes which are poorly taken care off. Older houses with large lots being sold and subdivided into dense housing, this should understand that money talks, and there are pressures to divide and develop the area, but it would be a sad mistake, in my opinion. Val Verda is a treasure, and if we lose it, the neighborhood and everything good that it stands for will be gone forever. The entrance sign is fiasco - doesn't reflect well on Bountiful or Val Verda.

Developers will ruin the peace and quiet of the area. Police protection and updating power poles.  Once we allow high density housing to be built, the area will lose it's charm. It is not reversible. This is a unique area. The open feel is why I choose to live here. Ify you allow someone with a couple of acres to develop, owners with a single acre will lose value, unless they subdivide when the adjoining property does, because they will lose the ambiance and the open feel, but can't develop their property because they can't fit a road in, or the property is not wide enough for subdividing. It appears that the people that want to subdivide, are not the ones that are living here, or even in the city. They will take the charm away, because it won't affect them. They are just out for the maximum money. if they don't subdivide, their property is worthless, they are still The cramming of the new home developments in what little open space we have left.

My plea to the City of Bountiful leaders is to take a long term vision for the future.

I'm afraid what is the last agriculturalish area in Bountiful will become the first fruits of a high density housing That it will forget its unique & historic mission to preserve, for future generations, the Continued deterioration of roads and lack of sidewalks in some areas. Idon't like that Davis Blvd isn't treated as a boulevard and has several smaller east-west streets enter Davis uncontrolled by stop signs. With the exception of 3100 South and 1800 South, all East - West streets intersecting Davis should have stop signs and Davis should be Seems like there are not enough families with children moving in. Bountiful zoning is not maintaining the original intention of the area.

After all that's been done I don't care to live in Bountiful or 3100 any longer.

Ilove the area and hope to see it improved, not developed.  Please save one last vestige of large lots, agricultural, animals and gardens from the tentacles of big development-which means more hard top, more bricks and mortar, and more traffic. The probability of more taxes to the city are clearly intriguing to a city commission. That is why it is imperative that the members think beyond the extra monies to the city coffers and take the efforts to preserve a gift of untouched nature As stresses to resources worldwide mount - water (think California), land, climatic challenges, increasing cost of petroleum as it becomes scarcer we need to think about providing for ourselves from local resources to the greatest degree possible. Val Verda has huge potential to address the nutritional needs of coming generations, but Itwould be great to have a community park or other gathering area for neighbors that encourages community interaction and retains the green open space. Please keep in mind that many people moved to Val Verda, years ago. When Bountiful annexed the area they threw those people wanting to live in an agricultural area under the bus. Council members saw Val Verda as a place to develop, not preserve. If you want to know Bountiful's future simply look at West Valley City. Is that what you want? It's not easy to stop urbanization and the accompanying rise in crime and drugs and gangs if you don't start by having a vision that includes limited, and very calculated growth. It's too late for some of Bountiful but hopefully it's not too late Concerned that large chunks or property will be sold to build condos and apartment Isupport the new developments proposed for the area since they will bring necessary infrastructure improvements (sidewalks and road repairs) and will be welcome new updated housing units to the area.

Remember once we loose open space, we will never get it back, it is a very precious commodity and should be treated as such. Please start to use some vision and community planning, and stop jumping in bed with every developer that has a "great idea". Hold developers accountable for things like road work and containing runoff. Stop giving them a pass SO we have to deal with roads that feel like they were paved by cartoon characters - watch Disneys CARS and then go drive any road recently torn up and repaired by a development - "I'm the first one to drive on the new road". We all know that eventually the city must fix these things spending our money to make it right, why not make the developer do it right in the first place. Why are you allowing developers to get away with substandard work? Sorry for the rant now back to the survey. Please stop cramming houses into every possible space. Only approve plans that have enough room for people to chill and enjoy their families. You will only make things worse if you keep going the way you are. You want to see crime and lack of human decency; keep cramming people together without proper infrastructure and things will get ugly.

Attachments  Staff Report to City Council of April 2013 Memo to South Davis Fire Board of May 2015  62    63    City Council Staff Report Subject: Creation of an Independent Fire District Authors: Gary Hill and Russell Mahan   - 0 ORATED AD  Department: Date: 23 April 2013 Background  City Manager and City Attorney  Bountiful City has historically had its own fire department. In 2004 it was decided to join forces with the surrounding cities to create the South Davis Metro Fire. Agency, which is what we now have. This was done by an Interlocal Cooperation Agreement, which created as separate but not an independent governmental entity. South Davis Fire is funded by each City individually appropriating money. The governing board consists of the Mayors and a Itis is now proposed that an independent "Fire District" be: set up, which would have its own taxing authority. It would be still be governed by representatives: from the cities and County. This implicates several issues, which are introduced in this memorandum.  County Commissioner. The Agency has no taxing authority.  Analysis  Itneeds tol be: said that when the Fire Agency was established there was ai feeling that this was an intermediate step toward an ultimately independent District. In the 2004 Interlocal Agreement itself, which was adopted byt thel Bountiful City Council, it stated that "Iti is the desire oft the participants..to create a new legal entity having taxing authority.... To that end, thej participants are entering into this Interlocal Agreement in order to make interim preparations to create the legal entity..." Thatstatement is not binding buti indicates the feelings at the time. A copy oft the resolution and the recitals of the Agreement are enclosed to give you information ofv what was going on at the time. Whether to create al District now 1. Two forces seem tol be driving the suggestion to create an independent district. One is that some or all oft the other cities would like to reduce the direct impact on their own city budgets by allowing the Agency to assess property taxes directly. It was originally thought that most oft the money for each City would come from fire impact fees on new building  should be decided upon current facts and judgment.  64    construction, but when the recession came this funding source collapsed and money had to The other driver behind creating a new District is that the Fire Agency itself feels that increased autonomy to raise revenues would ease the burden ofh having to justify its budget toi five different cities each year. Some cities are chronically strapped for money and always oppose anything that would increase expenditures and therefore each City's  come: from the general fund.  assessment.  2. When the Agency was created it needed money to acquire land and build fire stations, SO each member City was assessed a certain amount. Bountiful paid cash and the other cities went in on al bond (the 2006 Revenue Bond for $4,205,000.) That bond is still outstanding and has 19 more years to go. The annual payments for the bond are not being met by the fire impact fees. Whatever is done, the other cities must pay this bond completely without help from Bountiful, and must hold Bountiful harmless fromi it. The other cities concede 3. Bountiful originally made up about 44% oft the Fire. Agency (based on population), but that has since dropped to about 37%. Itwill continue to go down over time as the other cities grow much faster than Bountiful. Nevertheless, Bountiful is still the biggest component and must have a proportionate vote in any governing: arrangement. The other cities also concede this necessity.

The majority of the District governing board would be made up ofr representatives: from the other cities, and would have the ability to increase property taxes without approval of the Bountiful City Council. All' Truth in Taxation laws would be applicable.

The power to decide this would be transferred from  Bountiful to the new Fire District.  65    6. In order to fund the new Fire District, the City would have to transfer some ofits property taxi rate to the District. State law requires that there be no initial taxi increase to residents ifar new districti is formed. Bountiful would therefore need toi reduce its tax rate by the same amount increased by the new District. This has been done in forming other fire and police districts in the state. Right now, Bountiful's property tax rate is .001094 and its tax revenue is about $2,096,000. The City pays $1,900,000 to the Fire. Agency for fire protection. Preliminary estimates indicate that the new District would need at tax rate of .000988. This would obligate the City to reduce its rate to .000106, which is a 90% reduction. We estimate the city would only collect $203,000 in property tax at this new  rate.

Proposed time line for formation ofa a new Fire District.  67    To:  South Davis Metro Fire Agency Board of Directors  From: Steve Thacker-Centerville City Manager (and current chair of city Subject: Issues Relating to Proposed Creation of Special District  Date: May 13, 2015    Recently the city managers of the South Davis Metro Fire Agency member cities met to discuss the issues relating to the proposal to create a special district. We discussed ideas for making the special district concept more acceptable to elected and appointed city officials who are concerned about whether there would be adequate constraints on the taxing and spending decisions ofa completely independent special district. The city managers are also concerned about how the conversion to a special district would impact the cities' own property tax levies in order to comply with Truth-in- Taxation requirements. Our discussion concluded with the managers group expressing support for three ideas that may help city officials become more comfortable with the concept of a special district: 1) limit the purpose for which a special district is created; 2) initially create the district with a very small property tax levy; and 3) strengthen the role of the city managers in the annual budget process. Irespectfully request the opportunity to address the Board at your May 18 meeting about these suggestions. These ideas have been discussed with Chief Bassett. He has asked a number of questions that merit iscusson-pariculary regarding the city managers' role int the budget process. Ifthe Board isi interested in pursuing these ideas further, Irecommend his questions and other details be discussed ina a follow up meeting of the city/county managers with Chief Bassett, with a report back to the Board  and their subsequent discussion. Limit the District's Purpose  As was discussed in an earlier work session of the mayors and city managers, the district could be created only for funding capital needs, including issuing bonds and paying debt service. This would leave the operational budget still subject to the current annual process that requires assessments from the member cities and County and, therefore, review by each city council. Capital needs would be primarily facilities related. The replacement of vehicles would still be funded with a combination of annual budget funds, savings at the close of budget years, and using the current General Fund balance of the SDMFA, which has been trending upward for years. This balance should bei tapped as appropriate tos supplement the annual budgeted amount for the Capital Reserve Fund and the transfer of budget savings at the close of each fiscal year. There may be an occasional exception that could be funded via the special district--such as the replacement ofa ladder truck. But otherwise the use of the special district tax levy would be limited to omainco/remodetine/repar of firei facilities.  Begin with Small Tax Levy  City managers are concerned about the impact on their respective city's tax levy upon creation ofa special district. The intent of creating a special district for facility needs is to provide a new funding source for purposes not funded with current revenue sources. However, when the special district is first created and sets its initial tax levy, member cities will be required under Truth-in-Taxation to reduce their own tax levies to offset that new levy unless they go through the statutory process to avoid that  68    reduction. As an alternative, a district could be created initially with a very small tax levy that wouid require only a very small reduction in each city's own tax levy. Then in subsequent years the district couid go through its own Truth-in-Taxation process toj justify to the taxpayers the need to fund fire facilities-without impact on the cities' own tax levies. This ties the tax levy increase very directly and clearly with the need fori fire facilities, and allows one governing body-the special district board-to go through this process instead of the governing bodies of all member entities to avoid impact on their own tax levies. Ifit would help city councils get more comfortable with the creation of a special district for  capital needs, a maximum cap could be established on the tax rate.  City Managers' Role in Budget Process  Int the past few years city managers have been involved informally in the fire agency's budget process, at the request of the Board. City managers have been asked to review the fire chief's proposed budget and provide comments to him before he submits it to the Board. Admittedly this has been a relatively cursory review. The city managers' role could be: strengthened by requiring the fire chief to submit his "budget request"-for both operational and capital expenditures-to the city managers group for their collective in-depth review, with the chair of that group designated as the "budget officer" for the fire agency. This budget officer would in turn present the "proposed budget" to the Board of Directors of the fire agency. This process would be similar to the process currently followed in each city-i.e. the city manager is designated the budget officer and all departmental budgets are reviewed by the city  manager before a "proposed budget" is submitted to the city council.  This concept is suggested as a way to engage the city managers more formally in the budget process, with the intent of providing confidence that the budget proposed to the Board has been thoroughly vetted by those who also have the responsibilityofs submitting to their respective city councils a budget  that includes the fire agency'sa assessment.  69    70    UNAPPROVED  1 2 3 4 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 17 18 19 20 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 32 34 37 39  Minutes of the BOUNTIFUL CITY COUNCIL June 9, 2015-7:05 p.m.  5 Present: Mayor:  Randy Lewis Gary Hill Galen Rasmussen Paul Rowland Chad Wilkinson Brock Hill-Parks Jeff Bassett- Fire Chief Nikki Dandurand John Marc Knight Beth Holbrook Russell Mahan  Council Members: City Manager: Assistant City Manager: City Engineer: City Planner:  Kendalyn Harris, Richard Higginson, John Pitt  Department Directors & Personnel:  Recording Secretary:  16 Excused: Council Members:  City Attorney:  Official Notice of the City Council Meeting was given by posting an Agenda at City Hall and  21 on the Bountiful City Website and the Utah Public Notice Website, and by providing copies to the 22 following newspapers of general circulation: Davis County Clipper and Standard Examiner.
