A
A
To
our
april
13
38
meeting
we're
happy
to
have
you
here.
While
we
continue
to
hold
our
meeting
remotely
due
to
the
decorations
of
emergency
related
to
the
pandemic
and
the
earthquake,
even
though
there
isn't
a
location
to
attend
meetings
in
person,
this
is
still
considered
an
open
and
public
meeting.
Please
keep
joining
us
remotely
until
the
day
it's
safe.
A
A
Additionally,
the
board
will
not
be
discussing
the
voter
initiative
submitted
to
the
city
on
march
17
2021,
seeking
the
utah
and
capital
theaters
be
designated
local
historic
landmarks.
The
city
attorney's
office
concluded
that
the
proposed
law
is
legally
referable,
which
is
the
first
step
in
the
process.
A
A
The
board
has
always
had
rules
of
the
quran
that
are
created
to
advance
the
legitimate
government
objectives
of
having
an
orderly,
efficient
meeting
that
moves
through
the
agenda
and
gives
everyone
the
opportunity
to
voice
their
opinions
in
person.
We
had
the
added
benefit
of
being
able
to
see
each
other
which
helped
us
get
to
know
our
constituents
and
engage
more
meaningfully.
A
A
The
word
respects
all
points
of
view
and
we
welcome
new
insights.
However,
using
power,
language
and
personal
attacks
make
the
public
comment
forum
and
civil
and
intimidating
for
others.
This
meeting
is
also
being
broadcast
on
television
and
internet,
and
so
we
will,
and
so
we
will
more
strictly
enforce
the
use
of
profanity.
A
A
A
If
your
registered
name
doesn't
meet
this
requirement,
then
our
staff
will
use
the
chat
teacher
to
gather
the
information
from
you.
Robert
nutzmann,
from
our
staff
is
helping
to
moderate
the
meeting
and
will
be
messaging
with
the
attendees
to
coordinate.
Please
monitor
the
chat
screen
for
information
and
or
feel
free
to
message.
Our
staff
with
any
questions.
Isa
canedo
will
be
calling
the
names
of
those
who
wish
to
comment
and
unmuting
lines.
A
When
isaac
unmutes
your
line
and
lets
you
know
it's
your
turn,
please
state
your
first
and
last
name,
just
as
you
would
in
our
in-person
meetings,
indicate
the
topic
you're
speaking
on
and
the
two-minute
timer
will
begin
at
the
two-minute
mark.
We
will
announce
time
and
your
microphone
will
be
muted.
B
We
have
around
three
people
to
talk
today
here
to
talk
today.
First
up
we
have
valerie
nagasawa,
followed
by
zach
flagg
and
then
eric
sorry,
trey
imamura
valerie.
You
are
unmuted.
C
B
That's
fine:
following
valerie,
we
have
zach
clegg
zach.
You
are
unneeded.
D
Yes,
we
can
hear
you
perfect
yeah.
My
name
is
zach
clegg.
I'm
calling
to
give
some
words
on
the
utah
theater
I've
been
a
lifelong
resident
of
salt
lake
city.
I
currently
live
in
the
marmalade
district,
but
I
just
kind
of
wanted
to
summarize
some
of
my
thoughts
in
regards
to
the
the
efforts
pertaining
to
this.
D
D
It
seems
like
every
year
the
longer
I
live
here
it
seems
like
a
lot
of
our
historic
fabric
is
quickly
being
erased
and
a
lot
of
that
correlates.
I
feel
like
to
our
cultural
vibrancy,
our
historic
legacy,
our
historic
kind
of
story
of
salt
lake-
and
you
know
a
lot
of
this.
It
seems
like
most
of
the
culprits
or
the
the
people
or
the
buildings
that
are
subject
to
this
have
been.
You
know,
parts
of
it's.
D
You
know
ironic,
that
japan
town
some
of
the
stuff
on
there
is
on
the
agenda
today,
but
the
erasal
of
erasing
of
the
the
fabric
of
our
greek
and
japan
towns,
the
recent
demolition
of
one
of
the
oldest
lgbtq
bars
in
the
country
with
radio
city
lounge.
I
was
born
in
sugar
house,
which
is
completely
unrecognizable
to
what
I
remember
it
as
being
a
very
walkable
human
skill,
place
with
lots
of
diversity
and
something
that's
not
really
there
anymore.
D
D
So
you
know
that's
kind
of
focusing
on
some
of
the
smaller
things,
but
then
also
some
of
our
large-scale
architectural
gems,
a
structure-
and
you
know
by
time.
Okay,.
B
Following
zack
trader,
memoir
is
not
speaking
tonight
we
have
eric
hutchings
eric.
You
are
unmuted.
E
Hello,
you
guys,
I
wasn't
sure
how
to
log
in
I
was
going
to
join
with
videos
so
that
you
knew
that
I
was
paying
close
attention
and
truly
engaged.
I
work
in
mayor
wilson's
office.
E
I
used
to
serve
in
the
utah
legislature
and
I'm
now
working
with
mayor
wilson
on
special
projects,
and
I'm
here
today
just
to
get
updated
and
learn
a
little
bit
more
about
what's
going
on
and
then
update
the
mayor
and
the
mayor's
chief
of
staff
kerry
nakamura.
So
it's
nice
to
see
you
guys
nice
to
have
a
chance
to
hear
what
you're
working
on-
and
I
just
appreciate
you
letting
me
join
in
today,
thanks.
F
Hi,
yes,
my
name
is
casino
kansava.
I
am
the
executive
director
of
the
nomad
alliance,
a
non-profit,
serving
the
unsheltered.
We
just
got
10
nomads
employed
today
and
are
really
excited
to
restart
their
lives
and
all
are
begging,
begging
us
to
please
make
a
space
for
them
to
be
safe.
We're
working
on
a
tiny
house,
community
we've
been
hi,
amy,
we've
been
amy's,
come
out
with
us
and
we're
really
just
hoping
to
move
forward.
F
I
know
that
mayor
aaron
is,
is
really
committed
to
getting
built
by
november,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
reach
out
and
give
myself
as
a
resource.
We
have
a
plan.
We
have
nomads
that
are
willing
to
provide
free,
carpentry
labor.
F
We
can
get
all
the
materials
donated,
so
let's
execute
and
give
them
a
safe
space,
so
they
can
really
start
their
lives
over
instead
of
being
shuffled
to
and
from
and
re-traumatized
because
this
solution,
that
is
in
the
current
paradigm,
isn't
helping
anyone
and
it's
not
making
the
city
look
good
and
any
by
any
means.
So,
let's,
let's
work
together-
and
I
just
want
to
thank
you
guys
for
everything
you're
doing.
Thank
you
for
supporting
us
and
our
community.

I

We
appreciate

here
with
you
today.
As
you
stated,
this
item
is
a
written
briefing
that
was
originally
transmitted
back
in
january.
It
is
a
status
update
on
the
process
for
evaluating
a
project
area
that
would
incorporate
the
research
park
area.
Tracy
tran.
Our
project
manager
has
a
brief
presentation
with
some
additional
information
in
that
and
then
we'd
be
happy
to
take
any
discussion
or
questions
from
the
board,
so
I
will
turn
it
over
to
tracy
unless
there's
any
questions
right
now.
J
A
J
I
J
Great,
thank
you
so
yeah.
As
danny
stated,
I'm
just
going
to
give
a
quick
update
on
where
we
are
at
with
the
university
university
of
utah
research
park.
Cre
analysis
just
to
give
a
quick
overview
of
what
has
happened
to
date.
The?
U
of?
U
began!
The
research
park
master
plan
process
in
2019,
the
rda
and
various
city
departments
were
involved
in
the
process
of
stakeholders
in
2020.
The?
U
completed
the
research
park,
strategic
vision
plan
and
the
board
also
authorized
the
boundary
survey
process.
J
That
was
mentioned
at
the
beginning
of
this,
which
authorized
rd
staff
to
prepare
a
draft
plan
and
conduct
analysis
that
determines
whether
or
not
project
area
creation
is
feasible
for
research
park
and
with
that,
the
rda
has
been
engaged
with
the
eu
for
their
second
phase,
their
strategic
implementation
plan,
in
order
to
gather
additional
information
that
will
help
with
the
cra
process.
J
So
this
is
just
a
map,
I'm
showing
the?
U
view,
survey
area
and
before
we
dive
in
into
the
update.
There
have
been
some
questions
about
why
research
park,
so
I
just
want
to
highlight
some
of
the
things
as
to
why
we're
looking
at
research
park.
So
first
there
could
be
a
partnership
opportunity
with
the
university
of
utah.
J
The
city
currently
lacks
a
relationship
with
the
university
and
in
the
past
many
people
have
wondered
why
this
is
the
case
and
in
2017
2018
salt
lake
city
was
a
fellow
for
the
daniel
rose
center
through
uli
and
throughout
the
process
which
included
working
with
experts
in
various
cities.
This
lack
of
relationship
with
eu
was
again
brought
up
in
addition
to
that,
the
university
is
a
premier
research
institution
and
it
produces
many
startups
and
jobs
that
eventually
grow
out
of
the
university.
J
This
partnership
could
allow
for
a
greater
number
of
overall
public
benefits
with
these
two
with
these
two
public
entities
working
together,
and
I
wanted
to
note
that
throughout
the
master
plan
process
that
you
didn't
need
to,
that,
you
did
not
need
to
include
the
city
in
their
conversations,
but
they
did
want
our
they,
but
they
wanted
our
involvement
from
the
beginning,
since
they
are
the
an
entity
of
the
state.
They
technically
could
do
what
they
wanted
and
they
aren't
subject
to
any
city
ordinances.
J
Also,
their
comprehensive
plans
for
300-plus
acres
incorporates
many
public
benefits
and
it
is
very
rare,
as
there
is
very
limited
land
in
salt
lake
city,
for
a
comprehensive
development
of
this
size
outside
of
the
northwest
quadrant
area
which
doesn't
allow
for
residential.
There
aren't
any
opportunities
for
a
comprehensive
development
of
this
size,
so
the
use
of
tax
increment
could
be
used
for
better
land
use
and
a
variety
of
public
benefits
that
includes
open
space
trails,
affordable
housing
on
the
east
side
and
just
overall
transit
and
transit
and
transportation
opportunities.
J
So,
just
as
a
reminder,
the
research
park,
strategic
vision
plan
focuses
on
creating
a
sustainable
mixed-use
development
that
incorporates
housing,
retail
services,
open
space
and
trails
to
the
existing
office
development
and
surface
parking
within
research
park.
I
mean
it
promotes
compact
and
human
skill
and
a
compact
in
a
human
scale
environment.
J
It
leads
with
sustainable
and
resilient
development
and
design
strategies
it
prioritizes
multimodal
circulation
to
and
through
the
campus
and
the
design
strategy
focuses
on
three
categories.
It
looks
at
an
ecological
framework
for
the
park,
the
connective
network
and
overall,
in
an
overall
innovation
ecosystem.
J
J
J
This
will
include
evaluating
land
use,
data
and
future
uses,
estimating
taxable
value
and
tax
increment
understanding
the
cost
of
redevelopment
activities,
estimating
the
total
project
area
funds,
assessing
the
rationale
for
the
use
of
projectary
funds,
evaluating
the
uses
of
tax,
increment
understanding,
the
beneficial
influences
on
the
community's
tax
base
and
the
associated
economic
activity.
The
proposed
project
area
will
likely
stimulate
and
whether,
but
the
project
area
is
necessary
to
undertake
the
proposed
project
area
development,
we
are
currently
working
with
the
u
and
a
consultant
to
begin
understanding
some
of
this
information.
J
J
J
There
are
a
lot
of
steps
that
go
along
with
this,
so
once
we
do
have
enough
information
to
share,
we
do
plan
to
come
back
in
the
next
few
months
to
the
board,
with
the
following
draft
plan:
components
and
have
the
board
provide
policy
direction
on
these
components.
J
So
this
would
include
public
benefits,
analysis
standards
and
activities
to
guide
development
and
the
actual
project
area
plan.
Well,
the
first
draft
of
it
at
least
so
we
do
anticipate
these
coming
back
in
the
next
few
months,
and
with
that,
I'm
we're
happy
to
answer
any
questions
about
this
process.
J
A
This
board
members,
do
you
have
any
questions
for
tracy
or
any
other
discussion
about
moving
forward
with
this
work?
That
trace
is
doing
or
not
it's
open.
The
floor
is
open.
The
virtual
floor
is
open
for
you
guys.
B
So
when
do
we
decide
if
we
want
to
actually
go
forward
with
this
plan,
it
seems,
like
things
are
kind
of
happening,
and
but
we
haven't
actually
voted
to
create
it.
Yet.
I
Yeah,
that
would
I
mean
the
the
actual
approval
or
disapproval
would
would
likely
be
when
we
present
the
draft
plan.
Obviously
we
would
have
some
check-in
points
with
the
board,
either
in
in
public
meetings
or
small
group
meetings
if
desired,
but
until
we
actually
present
the
plan
and
and
make
any
recommendations
as
to
the
feasibility
what
our
involvement
would
be
and
then
what
that
structure
would
be.
That
would
be
the
approval
of
the
board
to
move
forward
or
not.
B
Okay,
if
we
decide
not
to
go
forward
with
it,
are
we
like.
I
B
Are
there
I
mean
I
like
the
idea
of
being
able
to
partner
with
the
university
of
utah,
but
isn't
there?
Is
there
something
that
we
could
do
maybe
on
the
west
side?
That
would
be
more.
Is
there
a
partnership
opportunity
there.
I
I
Those
conversations
are
happening
with
the
university
just
in
general,
right
now,
as
far
as
identifying
opportunities,
either
for
apprenticeships
or
job
programs
or
or
pulling
some
of
those
advantages
more
to
the
residents
of
salt
lake
city
and
specifically
on
the
west
side.
So,
if
you'd
like,
we
can
have
ben
jump
in
to
see,
if
he's
got
any
details
on
that
additionally
or
we
can
certainly
make
that
a
point
of
the
conversation
with
the
university
as
we
move
forward,
if
that's
direction
from
the.
H
Board
I
can
chime
in
on
that
quickly,
danny
and
just
say
in
our
involvement
in
our
collaboration
with
the
university
of
utah,
especially
with
the
tech
lake
city
initiative
that
we're
exploring
as
well.
H
All
of
our
conversations
have
been
centered
around
not
just
the
the
physical
locations
of
the
building,
but
where
our
residents
are
and
how
economic
opportunity
and
these
certain
considerations
benefit
all
of
our
residents,
including
the
residents
on
the
west
side.
Even
if
this
investment
is
taking
place
off
that
research
part.
B
Right
but
I
mean
we
can
say
that
about
everything
right
I
mean
every
everything
that
we
do,
what
kind
of
adds
to
that?
That
rda
does
adds
to
the
economic
prosperity
or
and
future
prosperity
of
the
city,
and
that
benefits
all
of
us,
but
I
just
worry
about
like
where
there
is
an
area
that
hap
that
has
access
to
a
lot
of
resources.
B
Like
I
mean
I
understand
that
we,
you
know
maximizing
that
and
there's
an
argument
for
doing
that
as
well,
but
I
also
feel
like
you
know,
the
rda
tool
is
something
that
you
know
we
use
in
areas
where
there
aren't
other
options
or
where
things
other
attempts
have
failed.
H
I,
I
think,
that's
a
further
conversation
with
the
rda
in
terms
of
the
physical
locations,
but
what
I
can
say
is,
as
the
rda
develops
a
draft
plan
and
with
our
engagement,
we're
definitely
pressing
that
consideration
and
and
what
we
can
press
the
university
on
as
well
as
a
measurable
way
that
you
know
these
programs
benefit
the
residents
equitably
and
have
that
included
back
in
in
the
plan
as
appropriate
ganning
through
that
process.
But
we're
happy
to
carry
that
voice
back
and
then,
as
it
comes
before
the
council.
For
that
wider
policy.
H
I
You
know,
I
would
just
add
director
wharton
that
we
can
certainly
have
that
if
that's
the
the
direction
of
the
board,
we
certainly
can
include
that
analysis
as
part
of
the
plan
so
that
that
can
be
considered
along
with
the
you
know,
project
areas
all
happy
to
provide
ideas
and
opportunities.
There.
A
Because
remember
mano.
K
Yeah,
I
guess
my
question
on
this
would
be
similar
to
board
member
warren's
question,
but
I
think
my
question
is
do
do
we
have
clear
ideas
of
what
what
will
happen
in
this
area
if
the
rda
is
involved
versus?
K
If
not
because
it
seems
to
me
like
a
lot
of
times,
our
rda
tool
is
it's
a
a
good
way
to
start
development
happening,
start
redevelopment
and
start
investment,
but
the
investment
seems
like
it's
already
been
started
in
this
area
and
that
the
university
already
has
a
master
plan
and
and
that
a
lot
of
these
things
are
going
to
happen
anyway.
So
I
guess,
is
there
a
few
specifics
as
to
if
we
are
involved?
K
It
will
happen
this
way
instead
of
another
way,
and
is
that
more
programming,
like
you,
said,
partnerships
with
apprenticeship
programs,
or
is
it
like
physical
infrastructure
that
can
happen
with
the
rda
tool
that
wouldn't
otherwise.
I
Director
model:
that's
that's
a
great
question
and
that's
at
the
very
heart
of
the
justification
for
why
we
would
propose
a
plan,
and
I
think
the
the
purpose
of
the
plan
is
to
demonstrate
that
in
terms
of
what
what
the
use
of
tax
increment
would
go
to,
what.
What
are
the
additional
public
benefits
that
you
would
likely
see
within
this
project
area
and
how
we
would
obviously
tie
those
to
whatever
milestones
or
metrics
or
projects
that
we
would
want
to
ensure
happen
as
a
result
of
that
investment.
I
E
Thanks,
madam
chair,
I
want
to
express
appreciation
to
danny
and
his
team
of
the
rda
staff
for
meeting
with
me
this
week.
It
was
helpful
to
understand
some
dynamics
in
the
rda
and
the
budget
and
the
areas
I
did
talk
to
them
extensively
about
other
project
areas
that
are
not
directly
tied
to
this,
but
I
think,
there's
clearly
a
sentiment
right
now
about.
We
need
to
understand
why
this
area
versus
other
areas
of
the
city
that
need
a
lot
of
help
right
now.
E
So
I
reiterate
that
in
our
discussions
we
were
talking
about
implementation
of
other
areas,
north
temple,
which
is
already
in
place.
The
nine
line
was
just
got
approved
and
then
state
street,
which
is
in
process
and
my
request
to
them,
and
they
offered
this
as
well
was.
E
We
need
very
specific
implementation
strategies
for
those
three
areas,
knowing
the
barriers
we're
facing
and
those
are
fairly
unique
to
each
other,
perhaps
or
whether
versus
other
age
of
the
city
and
the
assurance
that,
while
we
do
need
to
approach
other
areas
of
the
city
for
various
reasons,
including
research
park,
most
likely,
god
have
assurances
about
implementation,
those
other
areas.
Otherwise,
they're
going
to
keep
falling
behind
so
for
board
members
to
know
that
I
would
expect
implementation
plans
and
very
specific
concrete
ones
that
are
measurable
fairly
soon.
E
I
don't
know
time
frames
danny,
I'm
not
going
to
hold
you
to
anything
right
now,
but
fairly
soon
to
help
talk
through
this
equity
and
balance
in
our
resources
and
how
we're
allocating
project
areas
to
ensure
that
we
don't
have
some
areas
that
just
take
off
because
of
the
natural
consequences
and
environmental
factors
which
are
legitimate
and
some
areas
which
we
know
have
barriers
and
we
aren't
ready,
are
able
to
address
those
barriers
as
soon
as
possible.
E
So
I
want
to
make
sure
that's
sort
of
publicly
stated
so
that
we
can
look
forward
to
those
and
have
those
as
part
of
the
conversation
going
forward.
I
A
I
totally
agree
with
with
andrew.
I
think
one
of
one
of
my
concerns-
and
I
think
it
goes
back
to
remember
wharton-
is
the
amount
of
staff
that
takes
to
take
on
even
the
the
initial
steps
to
to
do
research
park
by
creation
or
cra
so
danny,
I
know.
Obviously,
tracy
is
working
on
it
and
then
she's
presented
the
next
steps
just
to
decide
if
their
dna
may
participate,
but
it
seemed
like
it's
a
it's
a
lot
of
work.
Do
we
have
more
staff
also
involved
in
this
project?
I
If
you
were
to
ask
tracy,
she
would
probably
say
yes,
please,
but
yeah
we
do
as
we
ramp
up
the
efforts.
In
our
analysis,
we
will
likely
either
bring
in
more
staff
and
parts
of
that
we
may
also
you
know,
involve
consultants
just
to
kind
of
help
with
some
of
the
analysis
of
the
numbers.
We've
done
a
lot
of
that
already,
and
we
will
continue
to
do
that.
But
it's
not
anything.
That's
necessarily
outside
of
our
current
bandwidth
and
capacity.
I
A
And,
and
that's
what
that's
what
I
you
know,
that's
what
I
think,
oh
man,
you
might
need
you
know
ex.
You
might
be
doing
a
lot
of
work
that
we
may
not
agree.
You
know
when
you
come
back
with
a
second
presentation
that
we
might
not
agree
that
we
should.
You
know
we
might
not
see
the
all
of
the
benefits
that
would
merit.
You
know
creating
this
area
and
then
we
lost
all
of
that
time
and
all
of
that
stuff
resources.
A
I
have
to
focus
on
other
areas
that
we
have
currently
existing
or
about
to
exist.
So
those
that's
my
concern
with
this
project.
A
Questions
so
board
members.
Would
we
like
to
we
like
to
say
yes,
come
back
with
the
study
and
a
second
presentation,
but
with
all
of
the
stuff
that
board
member
wharton,
mano
and
johnston
have
asked
danny
to
work
on
as
well
in
terms
of
equity
and
amount
of
staff,
time
and
amount
of
attention
that
we're
going
to
pay
to
the
west
side.
Cras.
A
I
Sounds
good?
We
will
keep
working
and
bring
the
pieces
back
to
you
great.
I
A
Going
forward
with
item
number
four,
which
is
also
informational,
japan,
town
design
strategy
review,
the
design
strategy
was
funded
by
the
board
as
starting
point
for
supporting
revitalization
of
japan,
japan
town
street,
which
is
100
south
100
south
between
200
and
300
west.
The
design
strategy
reflects
over
three
years
of
community
engagement,
research
and
prayer
pride.
This
is
a
hard
work
for
me
hold
on
prior
prioritization
or
for
future
investment
and
management
of
the
cultural
and
historic
assets.
In
this
area.
A
At
the
table
we
have
alison
rowland,
which
is
our
policy
analyst
danny
wools,
corinne
piazza,
valerie
nagasava,
christine
richman,
jesse,
ellen
and
annika
egan
and
available
for
questions.
We
have
senator
jenny,
ivamato,
welcome
and
roland
yoshinaga
and
judge
raymond
uno.
Welcome
to
you
guys
too
go
ahead.
I
I'll
defer
to
allison
first,
I
think
she's
can
tee
it
up
and
turn
it
over
to
corinne.
Thank
you.
Allison.
L
Thank
you,
madam
chair
and
danny.
As
you
mentioned,
madam
chair,
this
is
the
review
of
the
design
strategy
for
japan
town.
I
wanted
to
mention
the
three
major
entities
on
japantown
street
that
are
that
were
involved
in
this,
at
least
in
the
outset.
As
part
of
the
working
group.
L
L
The
initial
plans
for
the
development
of
that
property,
which
is
now
known
as
the
west
corridor,
were
concerning
to
the
board
because
of
the
scale
because
of
the
orientation
of
the
buildings
and
because
things
like
garbage,
collection,
delivery
and
other
sorts
of
backs
of
house
operation
back
of
house
operations.
That's
where
the
s
goes.
L
L
The
board
worked
with,
or
rather
the
board
designated
a
facilitation
process
at
the
outset,
for
both
the
block
67
developers
and
the
japantown
community
to
come
together
and
talk
about
ways
to
resolve
this,
and
that
group
was
able
to
achieve
some
of
these
design
improvements
and
other
requirements,
and
these
agreements
were
incorporated
into
the
west
quarter
development
agreements
with
the
rda,
so
that
section
was
done
by
the
facilitation
process
that
the
that
the
board
facili.
Well,
that
the
board
said
in
motion.
L
L
One
is
that
the
rda
staff
and
gsbs
architects
recommend
the
com
that
the
community
establish
a
management
organization
which
would
be
similar
to
those
that
are
found
in
other
japan,
towns
or
those
sorts
of
areas
in
other
cities,
and
that
this
group
take
responsibility
for
salt
lake
city's
japan
town
and
to
act
as
the
official
decision-making
body
for
the
area.
So
the
board
may
wish
to
consider
options
for
supporting
the
creation
of
a
management
organization,
either
through
the
rda
or
through
other
city
departments.
L
The
other
policy
question
concerns
the
total
amount
of
the
proposed
improvements
which
are
structured
to
occur
over
time.
These
would
total
somewhere
between
six
and
seven
and
a
half
million
dollars
if
all
of
these
were
to
be
enacted
today.
L
That
is
a
question
for
the
board
and
for
the
community,
of
course,
but
the
board
may
may
want
to
request
some
more
specific
information
from
rda
staff
on
potential
funding
available
through
city
sources.
These
would
include
project
income
funds,
cbd,
downtown
placemaking
funds,
capital
improvement
funds
and
perhaps
other
funds
that
that
would
be
available
for
these
purposes.
So
those
are
the
two
policy
questions
and
I'll.
Let
someone
who,
hopefully,
is
being
more
articulate
than
I
am
today,
take
it
from
here
thanks.
M
Thanks
so
much
allison,
I
will
be
very
very
brief,
as
alison
did
a
great
job
covering
that
project
history
and
how
we
got
here
today.
I
just
wanted
to
briefly
cover
the
four
main
focus
points
of
what
we
asked
gsbs
to
accomplish,
so
one
we
wanted.
M
Excuse
me
also.
These
objectives
were
based
on
the
board
and
the
community's
goals.
So
we
number
one
asked
for
a
community-led
engagement
process.
Two.
We
asked
gsbs
to
do
extensive
due
diligence
so
that
they
could
make
sure
that
the
vision
balanced
the
commun
community's
ideas,
with
the
vision
actually
being
technically
attainable
and
based
on
the
requirements
of
city
code,
fire
restrictions
and
things
of
that
nature,
so
that
division
could
be
implemented.
M
Three
we
asked
for
as
allison
mentioned
implementation
and
maintenance
costs,
and
although
these
are
high
level
and
subject
to
change,
we
wanted
a
starting
point
to
get
an
idea
of
what
those
costs
would
be
for
these
improvements
and
four,
we
asked
for
a
best
practices
report
so
that
gsps
could
look
at
the
management
funding
structure
of
other
successful
japan
towns
so
that
we
could
learn
from
their
best
practices
for
our
japan
town.
M
Here
in
salt
lake
city
and
finally,
as
you
know,
the
original
thriving
japan
town
was
largely
dismantled
by
the
construction
of
the
salt
palace
in
the
60s,
and
the
community
has
long
since
been
working
towards
preserving,
what's
left,
but
also
restoring
some
of
what
was
lost
and
the
design
strategy
is
an
important
piece
of
that
journey
is
now.
We
have
a
community-led
process
that
created
a
vision
for
japan
town
as
an
important
building
block
towards
the
next
steps
of
beginning
to
seek
funding
in
the
revitalization
of
japan
town
street.
M
So
our
presentation
today,
of
course,
is
briefing
only
and
there's
no
formal
action,
but
we
wanted
to
update
you
with
this
great
work
that
gsbs
has
done
with
the
community
and,
as
alison
mentioned,
we
also
have
senator
jaina
iwamoto
and
roland
yoshinaga
available
from
the
community.
If
you
have
questions
for
them
directly,
thank
you
so
much
and
I
will
hand
it
over
to
gsbs
for
their
presentation.
C
All
right,
can
you
guys
hear
me
now?
Yes,
yes,
okay,
sorry
about
that.
All
right,
chris
christine,
is
sharing
the
screen,
all
right,
we're
ready
to
go.
Thank
you
corinne.
Thank
you
alison
good
afternoon.
My
name
is
valerie
nagasawa,
I'm
with
gsbs
architects
and
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
my
team.
Today
we
have
a
brief
10-minute
summary
of
the
process
that
we
began
in
january.
2020
we'd
like
to
thank
the
rda
board
for
funding
and
supporting
this
process.
C
C
That
was
no
small
commitment
on
their
part
totaling
over
60
hours
of
meeting
time.
So
this
group
helped
us
generate
interest
and
participation
in
the
community
engagement
events
and
they
guided
the
design
ideas
together.
We
engaged
the
broader
community
in
three
saturday
events,
the
first
being
in
person
and
the
second
and
third
being
virtual.
C
This
is
a
vision
that
honors
the
past,
while
focusing
on
the
future.
The
design
guideposts
are
a
series
of
ideas
that
begin
to
flesh
out
the
vision
and
give
rise
to
a
design
concept.
They
are
a
place
of
generations,
a
place
of
gathering
a
place
of
vibrancy,
a
place
of
senses
and
a
place
of
intrinsic
beauty.
C
C
C
So
this
image
shows
how
the
various
clearances
work
within
within
the
preferred
option.
You
can
see
the
fire
truck
access
lane
and
then
clear
lanes
for
vendor
vehicles
and
for
cooking,
that's
mostly
for
the
nihon
matsuri
festival,
so
we
categorize
place
making
elements
into
three
groups.
The
first
one
is
history
and
storytelling
elements.
Those
would
be
historical,
markers
and
plaques,
culturally
inspired
patterns,
textures
and
colors,
and
banners
that
use
that
would
be
mounted
on
the
light
poles
that
use
imagery
and
words
to
brand
japan,
town
and
advertise
events.
C
So
because
there
are
so
many
clearances
required,
we
put
together
a
diagram
that
defines
the
zones
available
for
the
different
kinds
of
place,
making
elements,
and
this
is
a
diagram
that
will
be
important
moving
forward
for
sure.
So
the
light
gray
areas
are
the
most
restrictive
and
and
the
available
canvas
in
those
areas
really
is
the
paving
surface
itself.
So
nothing
vertical
would
be
placed
in
these
areas.
C
This
maintains
the
integrity
of
the
full
vision
and
it
allows
each
step
to
build
upon
the
last
step,
so
things
aren't
being
undone
in
the
process.
We've
outlined
a
three-phased
approach
which
realizes
some
of
each
type
of
improvement
in
each
phase.
Some
of
the
functional
improvements,
some
of
the
safety
improvements
and
some
of
the
place
making
elements.
C
C
So
then,
finally,
as
karen
and
I
think,
allison
both
mentioned
the
best
practices
and
implementation
part
of
the
project.
So
as
part
of
this
process,
the
team
looked
at
other
japan,
towns
and
cultural
districts
around
the
country
to
identify
best
practices
in
the
areas
of
long-term
coordination
and
governance,
and
that
included
leadership,
structure
for
ownership
and
operations,
management,
practices
to
coordinate
funding
requests
and
operations
and
maintenance,
and
then
funding
sources.
C
C
The
single
organization
does
not
take
the
place
of
the
existing
organizations
and
it
doesn't
supplant
their
individual
missions,
but
it
creates
a
body
to
coordinate
and
keep
the
lines
of
communication
open
as
implementation
and
long-term
operations
of
the
street
occur.
So
the
organization
will
pursue
funding
both
for
infrastructure
and
for
operations.
C
So
that
is,
that
is
our
10-minute
summary.
I
thank
you
for
the
time
and
I
think
we
would
like
to
open
it
up
to
any
questions
that
that
you
have
at
this
point.
G
Thank
you
so
so
much
for
this
presentation
and
I
actually
just
texted
daddy
walls
and
said
this
presentation
is
going
to
make
me
cry.
G
This
has
been
a
two
and
a
half
year
process
and
as
the
former
rda
chair,
who
was
involved
in
the
black
67
and
having
former
council
member
charlie
luke
really
want
and
push
for
this,
and
I
mean
it's:
it's
truly
amazing
to
see
the
work
that
has
gone
into
this
and
the
passion
that
has
gone
into
this
and
to
see
something
that
can
be
so
valuable
to
our
community,
and
I
mean
it
just
like
makes
my
heart
happy
all
of
the
heartache
that
I
had
in
dealing
with
some
of
the
the
other
elements
outside
of
this.
G
This
part
of
it
is
worth
every
moment
of
it
to
see
this
vision
coming
to
life
and
to
really
see
what
what
the
council
wanted
and
wanted
to
make
sure
that
the
community
felt
and
had
and-
and
it
looks
like
we're
finally
getting
there-
I
think
for
so
long
and
even
to
this
day,
politicians
get
a
bad
rap
for
just
placating
and
saying
yes,
we're
gonna,
do
something
and
then
never
actually
putting
forth
the
money
and
the
energy
to
get
it
done
and
we're
well
on
our
way
of
getting
this
very,
very
important
project
done,
and
I
it
just
I'm
a
little
emotional.
G
I
really
am
so
thank
you
for
the
hard
work.
I
know
corinne
has
been
passionate
about
this
as
well
and
worked
incredibly
hard.
In
fact,
jamie
and
I
talked
on
the
phone
the
other
day,
and
she
mentioned
how
amazing
corrine
was
at
doing
working
on
this
project.
So
I
just
really
thank
you.
Thank
you
and
I
can't
wait
to
continue
working
together
on
actually
seeing
the
implementation
of
this
beautiful
plan.
C
Great,
it's
it's
great
to
hear
it's
great,
to
hear
that
and
and
and
and
there
is
so
much
importance
now
and
in
momentum
to
move
ahead.
So
I'm
glad
to
hear
your
support.
That's
awesome.
K
Thanks
this
is
something
that's
obviously
close
to
my
heart
and
I'm
really
excited
to
see
this
janie.
Thank
you
so
much
for
joining
us
today
and
being
part
of
the
process
and
advising
the
committee
and
the
design
team
on
this.
I
know
that
you've
put
a
lot
of
hours
into
that
and
thank
you
and
the
other
leaders
of
the
japanese
american
community
for
putting
that
time
into
it.
K
I'm
really
excited,
and
I'm
I'm
really
happy
that
I
was
able
to
skip
all
those
other
parts
related
to
block
67
and
this
area,
and
then
I
was
able
to
focus
on
this
more
exciting
part.
So
I'm
really
honored
to
be
part
of
this.
This
board
right
now,
when
we
get
this
exciting
piece
that
is
honoring
the
legacy
of
japan
town,
I
think
the
plan's
great
and
I
would
love
to
see
it
implemented.
K
I
I
did
valerie
when,
when
you
shared
this
with
me
in
a
small
group
meeting
previously,
I
did
have
one
thought
that
I'd
like
to
state-
and
I
say
this
as
a
member
of
the
japan
town
festival,
organizing
committee
and
I
know.
I
K
Co-Organizing
committee
members
may
disagree
with
me,
but
I
think
that
a
lot
of
the
plan
was
based
on
trying
to
keep
the
festival
operations
the
same
and
not
changing
them,
and
I
think
there's
some
room
for
potentially
pushing
us
to
rethink
how
we
plan
the
festival
if
that
leads
to
better
place
making
on
the
street.
K
So
again,
I
the
other
board
members
that
serve
with
me
for
that
that
organizing
committee
may
disagree
with
me,
but
for
my
sake
I
would
say,
I
think
it's
okay
to
push
back
on
on
us
a
little
bit
and
ask
us
to
think
how
the
festival
can
adapt
as
the
street
adapts.
I
think
the
festival's
been
planned
as
a
on
a
blank
slate
street
and
we're
not
going
to
have
that
we're
going
to
have
this
incredible
place,
and
so
I
think
our
festival
can
adapt
to
that
as
well.
K
C
C
Yep
yep.
Thank
you.
That's
that's
a
good
point.
We
we
saw
our
role
here
is
really
understanding
what
was
important
to
the
community
and
and
understanding
how
to
make
the
best
situation
there
for
them,
but
I
think
I
think
you're
right.
I
think,
there's
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
thought
to
be
had
still
and
so
great
to
hear
that.
A
Great,
I
just
have
a
question
another
question,
but
in
comment
as
well,
this
is
great
and
and
then
thank
you
for
bringing
that
that
festival
evolution.
I
think
you
know
it
has
so
much
potential
and
I
can
totally
see
this
huge
thing
happening
in
in
in
our
in
our
city,
and
I
think
you
know
the
neighbors
tend
to
benefit
from
this
amazing
asset
that
it's
happening
here
in
japan.
So
I
hope
that
the
you
know
the
board
members
keep
keep
the
neighbors
involved
as
well.
A
You
know
push
for
additional
support,
whatever
you
know
where
your
efforts
are,
because
you
know
that
the
area
is
changing
and
and
there's
a
lot
of
cool
stuff
happening,
but
I
think
the
coolest
part
will
be
japan,
so
you
guys
have
a
lot
to
offer
and
the
other
ones
better
be
joining
in
and
supporting
your
efforts
with.
That
said,
I
would
like
to
welcome
senator
jamie
iwamoto.
If
you
have
a
few
words.
N
Okay,
thank
you.
I
just
want
to
say
hello
to
everybody.
I
wish
we
were
in
person
and
I
can
see
you
I
I'm
not
so
tech,
so
everyone
had
to
help
me
get
in,
but
I
and
I
apologize
for
judge
if
he's
not
in,
because
I
was
going
to
go
to
his
house,
but
I
have
to
be
at
a
bill
signing
somewhere
and
I
didn't
have
time
to
get
there
because
his
phones
aren't
working
very
good,
but
I
did
want
to
thank
the
rda.
I
wanted
to
thank
corinne
she's
been
so
available
angel.
N
Just
everything
and
keeping
this
on
task
and
gsbs
has
been
wonderful
partners
to
work
with,
and
it's
been
a
journey.
You
know
this
whole
process
from
and
the
cova
challenges
too,
but
we
are
here
to
celebrate
because
we've
anything
that
bad
happens
to
the
community
right
now.
Well,
things
that
have
happened
in
the
past
a
lot
of
its
legislative.
N
We've
gone
through
a
lot
and
just
with
all
the
you
know,
the
american,
the
japanese
american
concentration
camps
and
I
just
went
down
to
moab
just
yesterday
with
a
filmmaker
because
they're
doing
the
dinosaur
park,
and
then
it
was
a
japanese-american
isolation
camp
for
the
really
bad
japanese
who
stood
up
for
their
rights.
N
So
it's
been
a
journey
for
this
process
and
a
lot
of
things
that
have
happened
in
the
past,
but
it's
great
to
look
forward
to,
and
this
is
just
an
awesome,
the
the
the
work
that
gsbs
does
has
been
wonderful
and
we
looked
at
the
final
and
we've
had
a
lot
of
input.
I
love
that
we've
had
maybe
we
would
have
had
a
different
thing
if
we've
been
in
person,
but
we've
had
a
lot
of.
I
think
there's
some
on
the
call,
the
youth
that
have
been.
N
You
know
I'm
not
young
anymore,
but
the
youth
have
been
involved
in
this
process
too,
and
just
the
availability
of
all
of
you
and
yeah.
I
was
talking
to
councilwoman
amy
fowler
the
other
day
and
I
kind
of
I've
been.
I
could
I
felt
her.
N
You
know
her
emotion
over
it
and
her
passion-
and
I
know
charlie
luke
was
very
involved
too,
and
I
know
dan
dugan's
run
I
reached
out
to,
and
all
of
you
have
been
really
wonderful,
so
we're
looking
forward
to
moving
ahead
the
phase
one,
the
safety
portion
and
the
partnerships
too,
and
I
wanted
to
say
to
like
people
that
had
worked
on
it
before,
like
karen
hale,
she
had
called-
and
we
says:
okay,
we
gotta.
N
G
A
Absolutely
is,
does
roland
yoshinaka
would
like
to
say
anything.
O
Yep,
I'm
here
well,
I
I
also
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
and
thank
you
for
corinne's
involvement
and
allison,
and
all
of
them
have
been
around
whenever
we
needed
them.
So
I
just
really
want
to
thank
you
and
I
want.
O
I
want
to
thank
the
board
for
its
investment
in
this,
as
director
fowler
had
had
said,
when
we
we
started
this,
we
were
just
kind
of
in
a
crazy
place
and-
and
you
know
what
the
conversation
was
about,
what
happened
50
years
ago
and
and
now
in
our
community
because
of
this
effort,
the
conversation
is
now
about.
O
Where
are
we
going
to
be
50
years
from
now
and
and
it's
just
completely
flipped
the
coin
into
the
future
and
everybody's
very
excited
about
the
possibilities
about
what
these
properties
may
may
be
able
to
become
at
some
point
in
time
in
the
future
and
and
just
really
trying
to
align
us
to
this
to
this
sort
of
vision
in
this
future?
So
I
just
really
want
to
thank
the
board
for
its
for
its
investment
in
this.
O
It's
it's
been,
it's
been
wonderful
and
I
think
I
think
it
will
pay
off
and
it
will
pay
off
again
50
years
from
now,
they'll
look
back
at
this
effort
and
say
this
is
what
this
is
where
it
changed.
This
is
where
the
change
direction.
So
thank
you
very
much.
A
Thank
you
for
your
words,
so
we
are
going
to
move
forward
with
item
number
five
and
that
is
report.
An
announcement
from
the
executive.
B
And
I
I
just
feel
the
thrill.
N
That
you
described
board
member
fowler
and
others.
N
B
A
Excited
about
that
super
excited.
Moving
on
to
item
number
six
report
and
announcements
from
rdi
staff.
I
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
We
don't
have
any
formal
reports
to
make
today,
but
I
would
just
add
on
to
what
everyone
else
has
said.
I'd
like
to
first
and
foremost,
thank
the
community
stakeholders
of
the
japanese
american
community
for
their
involvement.
Gsbs
did
an
amazing
job
as
as
mentioned,
especially
in
terms
of
pivoting
during
kovid,
to
continue
a
public
process
and
figuring
that
out
was
amazing
and
also
allison
roland.
I
think
you,
as
a
board
and
council,
need
to
understand
the
amount
of
time
she
invested
and
it
was
great.
I
A
B
A
A
Okay,
just
no
report,
but
just
that
encouragement
for
because
of
the
area
that
we're
talking
about
block
67
is
obviously
moving
pretty
fast
and
if
you
haven't
seen
it
drive
around
and
if
you
like
to
take
a
tour
of
the
project
we
can
accommodate,
I
was
able
to
go
there
this
week,
I
think
or
last
week
sorry,
so
it's
pretty
impressive
and
then,
as
you
walk
through
100
south,
you
can
see
the
potential.
After
you
saw
the
presentation
today
of
japan,
town
and
the
design.
A
You
can
see
how
awesome
that
street
could
be.
So
I
invite
you
guys
to
visit
that
or
tour
that
area,
and
you
can
contact
me
and
we
can
make
arrangements
all
right.
Moving
on
to
our
gender
on
item
d
and
d1
is
a
written
update
of
the
finalized
design
and
estimate
of
650
south
main
main
street
track
station.
The
rda
is
working
with
the
city's
transportation
division
and
the
utah
transit
authority
to
design
and
build
this
track
station,
using
funding
contributions
in
part
from
private
property
owners
who
are
planning
new
developments
in
the
area.
A
B
A
That's
okay.
I
thought
we
were
gonna,
get
an
update
anyway.
We're
moving
on
to
item
e
and
e1
is
which
is
content
and
then
e1
is
set
to
date.
Resolution
budget
for
the
redevelopment
agency
of
salt
lake
city
for
fiscal
year
2021-22.
A
All
right
motion
by
for
member
rogers
and
seconded
by
four
member
fowler
and
we'll
call
this
right:
jen,
okay,.
O
A
All
right,
thanks,
jen,
so
board
member
rogers
board
member
johnston.
K
A
E
A
Yes,
so
that
passes,
we
are
moving
on
to
item
two
set
date
for
the
rda
budget.
Amendment
number
one.
B
Actually,
madam
chair,
that
one
was
approved
with
the
last
motion,
because
the
last
motion
approved
the
full
consent
agenda,
so
both
items
so
now
we
just
need
to
move
on
to
the
closed
session
discussion.
A
All
right
I
apologize
for
that.
I
was
just
following
the
the
agenda
anyway,
so
we
need
to
go
into
a
closed
session
and
we
need
a
motion
for
that.
B
I'm
sorry
council
rda
board
chair
if
you
could
also
add,
pending
and
reasonably
imminent
litigation.
G
Oh,
so
I'd
move
that
we
go
into
a
closed
session
for
purposes
of
advice
of
counsel
and
pending
or
reasonably
imminent
litigation.
K
A
O
A
A
You're,
muted,
he
is
yes,
I
hope
that
counts.
Father,
yes,
mano.
