AMERICAN FORK CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 17, 2020
*AMENDED - WORK SESSION AGENDA
*NOTICE OF ELECTRONIC MEETING*
In accordance with Resolution No. 2020-07-20R, Mayor Frost has determined that conducting meetings of the City Council with an anchor location, such as the City Council Chambers or Administration Conference Room, presents a substantial risk to the health and safety of those who may be present there. The following are facts upon which this determination has been made:
- Utah declared state of emergency on November 8, 2020 due to an increase in case counts of COVID-19, a virus outbreak that has been recognized by the World Health Organization, federal, state and local leaders as a pandemic.
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has stated that COVID-19 is easily spread from person to person between people who are in close contact with one another through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. This virus can also be spread by people who are non-symptomatic.
- Federal, state, and local authorities recommend that individuals limit public gatherings, wear face masks, and follow social distancing guidelines.
- It is difficult to anticipate the number of attendees at any meeting in order to maintain social distancing to comply with State Phased guidelines. Further, regardless of the number of attendees, social distancing measures for Council, staff, and attendees will be difficult to maintain in the City Council Chambers and Administration Conference Room.
- COVID-19 continues to pose an immediate threat to the health, safety, and welfare of American Fork City residents.
- American Fork City can provide a way for the public to hear, or hear and view, open portions of City Council meetings and to provide a way to participate in public hearings.
All City Council meetings will be conducted via electronic means while the written determination is in effect. The meetings are broadcast live-streamed, and available at a later time, at https://www.americanfork.gov/AgendaCenter.
