Mr. Steve Van Maren spoke under “Citizen Public Input” asking the Council why it cancelled the Committee of the Whole and Council meetings on December 3, 2013, prior to the public hearing on the budget, as opposed to December 17, 2013.

Council Member Bradshaw stated the Council will finalize its workshops on November 26, but if necessary, can discuss the budget on December 10, prior to the hearing that evening.

Ms. Nichole Dunn, Deputy Mayor, stated part of reason to complete the budget hearings by November 26 is to have a finalized budget in place for a couple of weeks so citizens can review it prior to the public hearing.

Ms. Polly Hart, Friends Interested in Dogs and Open Spaces (FIDOS), spoke under “Citizen Public Input” stating in 2001, the Council passed an ordinance to allow dogs to be off leash in Millcreek Canyon on odd days. At that time, dogs were also allowed off leash on the upper road until the gate closed for winter ski trail grooming. About two years ago, the Forest Service began putting up a sign at the gate that said dogs must be on leash every day. Then, it takes down the sign once the ski trail is groomed. During the time the sign is up, the Unified Police Department issues citations to violators. Her concern is this violates County ordinance. She asked what right the Forest Service had for doing this, and what the County could do about it.

Council Member Bradshaw stated he would work with the Community Services Department to see why this is happening and what action the Council needs to take to be consistent with its previous legislative direction.

P R O C L A M A T I O N

Whereas, there are more than 171,000 licensed Nurse Practitioners in the United States with 579 NPs practicing in Salt Lake County, providing high-quality, cost-effective, patient-centered, personalized health care for nearly half a century; and

Whereas, NPs have advanced education (most with master’s degrees and an increasing number having doctorates); and

Whereas, NPs order, perform and interpret diagnostic tests, diagnose and treat acute and chronic conditions; and prescribe medications and other treatments; and

Whereas, NPs are truly partners in the care of their patients, so that in addition to clinical services, NPs focus on health promotion, disease prevention and health education and counseling, guiding patients to make smarter health and lifestyle choices; and

Whereas, the excellence, safety, and cost-effectiveness of the care providing by NPs is established and well documented; and

Whereas, NPs provide health care to people of all ages and in diverse health care settings such as private office practice, hospitals, long-term care facilities, schools, state and local health departments, managed care facilities, and retail-based clinics; and

Whereas, more than 18 percent of NPs practice in rural settings with populations of less than 25,000; and

Whereas, it is documented that patients of NPs are given more personal time and attention than they traditionally receive from other health care providers; be it

RESOLVED, THEREFORE, that I, Salt Lake County Mayor Ben McAdams, do hereby declare November 10 – 16, 2013 as National Nurse Practitioner’s Week in recognition of the contributions that health care professionals make to the well-being of people in Salt Lake County and throughout the country.

Council Member DeBry spoke under “Report of Council Members” stating he recently went on a field trip with Utah State Senator Wayne Niederhauser, Nathan Lee, Utah Department of Transportation, and Terry Wood, news anchor, to look at the problems with bike lanes. Possible solutions include widening, striping, or installing signage.

Council Member Horiuchi spoke under “Report of Council Members” stating he is going to the Utah Association of Counties annual convention in St. George, Utah, on Wednesday, November 13, 2013, to try to persuade people to go to the Legislature to ask for a one cent trade of property tax for sales tax. Kara Trevino, Legislative Specialist, Council Office, will be helping him. He asked Council Members to let him know if they do not want him to do this before he leaves.

Council Member Snelgrove stated he had a problem with the concept of indexing property tax increases.

Council Member Horiuchi stated this plan would not do that. It would give residents a sizable tax reduction in property tax. It will also equalize the County’s tax increase of last year.

Council Member Wilde stated it will increase County revenues in good economic times, but make it less secure in bad economic times because sales tax goes up and down as the economy goes up and down, while property tax is more stable.
