PUBLIC HEARINGS:
2. RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE THIRD AMENDMENT TO THE WILCOX FARMS SUBDIVISION DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT TO INCLUDE GARAGE DIMENSION PARKING STANDARDS AND HOME PLAN DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS
BACKGROUND: Following the Second Amendment to the Wilcox Farms Development Agreement, Lennar Homes began building homes in the development, with ten homes currently under construction or recently completed. During construction, it was discovered that some garage designs did not fully meet Clearfield City code because stairways from the garage to the main floor reduced the parking space inside the garage. The proposed amendment adds new garage dimension standards, including minimum garage sizes and allows minor obstructions on certain lots while still maintaining functional parking space. The amendment also requires as-built plans for the ten homes already underway and adds rules to the Pattern Book to encourage a mix of home designs throughout the neighborhood. These changes are intended to support functional off-street parking, architectural variety, and neighborhood balance within the subdivision.
RECOMMENDATION: Receive public comment.
SCHEDULED ITEMS:
3. OPEN COMMENT PERIOD
The Open Comment Period provides an opportunity to address the Mayor and City Council regarding concerns or ideas on any topic relevant to city business. To be considerate of everyone at this meeting, public comment will be limited to three minutes per person. Participants are to state their names for the record. Comments, which cannot be made within these limits, should be submitted in writing to the City Recorder at nancy.dean@clearfieldcityut.gov.
The Mayor and City Council encourage civil discourse for everyone who participates in the meeting.
4. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION 2026R-12 ADOPTING CLEARFIELD CITY'S DATA PRIVACY PROGRAM
BACKGROUND: Utah Code §63A-19-102 establishes statewide privacy principles requiring governmental entities to protect personal data, provide notice, implement safeguards, respect individual privacy expectations, and comply with applicable laws. Clearfield City collects and maintains personal data to provide municipal services, meet statutory obligations, and carry out governmental functions; and the City Council finds it in the best interest of residents, employees, and visitors to adopt a Privacy Policy consistent with state law.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve Resolution 2026R-12 adopting Clearfield City's Data Privacy Program and authorize the mayor's signature to any necessary documents.
5. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF ORDINANCE 2026-08 AUTHORIZING THE THIRD AMENDMENT TO THE WILCOX FARMS SUBDIVISION DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
RECOMMENDATION: Approve, Table, or Deny Ordinance 2026-08 authorizing the third amendment to the Wilcox Farms Subdivision Development Agreement and authorize the mayor's signature to any necessary documents.
6. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION 2026R-11 AUTHORIZING AN INTERLOCAL COOPERATION MASTER AGREEMENT WITH LAYTON CITY TO PROVIDE PUBLIC SAFETY DISPATCH SERVICES THROUGH A CONSOLIDATED, REGIONAL EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION CENTER WITH THOSE MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS, COUNTIES, STATE AGENCIES, AND SPECIAL SERVICE DISTRICTS THAT EXECUTE A JOINDER TO THE MASTER AGREEMENT
BACKGROUND: Clearfield City Dispatch merged with Layton City Dispatch on November 28, 2023. This was the first step in a larger effort to combine public safety dispatch services in northern Davis County. Since then, South Weber Fire has also signed an agreement with Layton City for fire dispatch services. Since November 2023, the Davis County Sheriff's Office has joined dispatch consolidation discussions and decided to contract with Layton City for dispatch services. As Davis County moves its dispatch services to Layton, the agencies currently served by Davis County will also enter agreements with Layton City. These agencies include Clinton City, Sunset City, Syracuse City, and State of Utah law enforcement agencies operating in Davis County. Layton City is also close to completing a new Emergency Operations Center with a modern dispatch center. The new facility will include updated equipment and technology and has the potential to eventually serve all public safety agencies in Davis County.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve Resolution 2026R-11 authorizing an interlocal cooperation master agreement with Layton City to provide dispatch services through a consolidated regional emergency communication center and authorize the mayor's signature to any necessary documents.
7. UPDATE ON THE FISCAL YEAR 2026 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL STATUS
8. CONSIDER THE APPROVAL OF A SUBSTITUTE MAYOR PRO TEM FOR THE JUNE 9, 2026 POLICY MEETING
BACKGROUND: Due to the mayor and the mayor pro tem's anticipated absence at the upcoming City Council policy meeting on June 9, 2026, the appointment of a substitute mayor pro tem is needed.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the appointment of the mayor's recommendation for the substitute mayor pro tem for the City Council Policy Meeting on June 9, 2026.
