As you can see from our agenda there wasn't a lot to discuss and so this meeting was short and sweet.
•Coronavirus update: Davis County will be implementing random household testing. Each member of chosen households will be given two tests, a blood test to check for antibodies and a the PCR test (swab into the nostril). It will help define how many cases and how many asymptotic cases we may have missed. There will be roughly 8,000 test conducted in two communities. The health department for Davis County does not anticipate a move to yellow by Friday but is hopeful it will happen by the end of the month. Numbers for Davis County continue to look very good, we have no active cases in South Weber.
•Tentative Budget: Staff has been working with the tentative budget for the last 4 months. A public hearing will be held June 9, 2020 to formally adopt the budget for fiscal year 2020-2021. The tentative budget can be found in the packet. There were a coupe of clarifications asked by the council, specifically towards a power lift gurney for the paramedic vehicle and future streetlights for existing neighborhoods (currently new neighborhoods will have the streetlights installed at the developer's expense - the city is moving from Rocky Mountain Power to South Weber owning and maintaining the lights). Installation of lights for the new developments should be coming forth to the council towards the end of this month.
As far as the public hearing we will have some sort of hearing ready to accommodate for it depending on what happens with restrictions due to Covid-19. We are also awaiting further suggestions from the state for legal opinions and our options.
Reports
Jo: Uintah City approached us about our shared boundary. Uintah approached South Weber City about a piece of property on the east end of the city that is part of the Uintah Business Park but lies on South Weber's side. Dave, Barry and Jo all met with representatives from Uinta and decided that a committee from both cities will meet together to discuss what should be done. The reps from SW council will be Blair Halverson and the Planning Commission Chair Rob Osborne. Wasatch Integrated Waste should have their sorting station to separate out green waste, plastic, paper ect. up an running by August. It will start with 50% capacity in the beginning and will go to full capacity next year.

Councilwoman Alberts: Our first town-hall meeting is scheduled for July 7th of this year. Accommodations for this will also depend on restrictions for Covid-19, more information coming soon. Councilwoman Petty will be starting our Councilmember Corner in the newsletter for July with each council member taking a month for the rest of the year.
Councilwoman Petty: The Parks and Rec committee met and had several discussions. Among these items was reviewing the rules for the dog park as well as new rules for all of our parks (will come before the council as a discussion later). Our updates to our city parks are underway with tentative plans to begin work on Cherry Farms this August. She praised the council's choice to open the parks for families in the city. She has received a lot of good feedback from mothers who have really appreciated having this asset available to them.
