IN THE WORK SESSION

Annexation Discussion
As requested by the Mayor and City Manager, staff presented their evaluation for Council consideration regarding Park City’s Annexation Expansion Area (AEA) for protecting open space, increasing capacity for affordable housing development, and/or to avoid overlaps with the expansion areas with other municipalities. There was significant discussion among Council, staff, and select community members.

IN THE STUDY SESSION

Community Foundation Social Equity Update
Staff and representatives from the Park City Community Foundation presented Council with an overview of their data analysis. As outlined in PCCF’s contract, they are asked to provide intermittent updates to Council. Thus far, they have gathered data from the community regarding existing issues surrounding social equity, which they will use to understand what the City and Community non-profits should focus on. At this time, five categories have been identified: affordable housing, low wages, affordable and safe childcare, access to healthcare, and a lack of feeling included in the community.

STAFF COMMUNICATIONS AND DISCLOSURES

McPolin Farm CUP Amendment
In March 2018, the Council directed staff to move through the process to request a narrowly defined, limited expansion of the use of the McPolin Farm to include small educational group tours of the Barn for adults and school groups. As a result, staff is pursuing amendments to the McPolin Farm Conditional Use Permit (CUP) through the Planning Commission. Staff shared with Council that they will be going to Planning Commission on April 24 and are currently planning summer tours. All events at the Farm will remain within the 12 event cap and there will be no changes regarding transportation and parking impacts.
