WORK SESSION - CITY COUNCIL CONFERENCE ROOM Subject: DISCUSSION - State Street Districts Rezone - General Overview (45 min) Suggested Action: The City Council will have an opportunity to discuss and ask Staff any preliminary questions regarding the State Street Districts rezone. Presenter: Christian Kirkham Background: Following the format established for City Center District, Staff has prepared ordinance language for the rezoning of the remaining four State Street Districts. This rezone is an implementation of the State Street Corridor Master Plan (2015), and has been thoroughly informed by the public by means of the "Imagine Orem" outreach campaign. The purpose of the districts is to allow for new types of development to be concentrated around major intersections and create pockets of walkable urban settings. Allowing mixed-use and denser developments in the districts and restricting it elsewhere in the city helps the City, citizens, and developers better predict and plan for redevelopment. The strategic placement of the districts maximizes potential future transit ridership, and the close proximity of multiple destinations will reduce the numbers of vehicle trips per capita. The districts provide the foundation for an even more functional, identifiable, and beautiful downtown Orem.

Mr. Downs said funds had been 19 set aside by the City Council to conduct the study, but wanted to discuss a move forward plan 20 based on concerns voiced by some Council members. Mr. Davidson said they needed to discuss 21 the merits of conducting a study for approximately $40,000 if the findings would not necessarily 22 drive any change or action afterward. 23 24 Each Council member shared their thoughts on the merits of conducting the study or not. Issues 25 discussed included: 26 CARE money allocations 27 Owner responsibilities and tenant responsibilities 28 Leasing Agreement specifics 29 Government involvement in SCERA 30 Capital improvements 31 Collaboration of organizations for win-win outcomes 32 Open lines of communications between City and SCERA 33 34 Mr. Pope said the Board’s concern with the study was that it seemed to be focusing on issues of 35 operations, which SCERA was responsible for in addition to other responsibilities. Mr. 36 Robertson said SCERA had put much toward capital improvements in his time, and they invited 37 collaboration with the City. 38 39 Mr. Lentz and Mr. Seastrand felt the study should still be conducted; Mayor Brunst, Mrs.
