The property currently contains an institute building for the LDS Church near the University of Utah Campus. The zoning map amendment is requested to accommodate a student housing development.

2. Ordinance: Technology Related Land Use Text Amendments
The Council will accept public comment and consider adopting an ordinance that would amend various sections of the Title 21A of the Salt Lake City Code pertaining to tech related land uses. This proposal was initiated by Mayor Erin Mendenhall to promote the development of the technology related industry in the City. The proposal updates the zoning code and does the following:
- Adds Biomedical, Technology Facility, and Data Center as defined terms in
the zoning code and adds the uses to the land use tables as permitted uses in specific zoning districts identified in the draft ordinance.
- Adds a qualifying provision as a footnote to the land use tables related to
Biomedical uses that would prohibit uses that produce hazardous waste from being located within 1/2 mile of a residential use.
- Modifies and merges several defined land uses into one use called
'Laboratory, related' and updates the land use tables as indicated in the draft ordinance.
- Updates the defined land use 'research and development facility' so the
definition reflects the nature of the use and expands where the use is allowed in the land use tables of the zoning code.
The proposal impacts zoning districts citywide and impacts multiple sections of Title 21A Zoning. Related provisions of Title 21A may also be amended as part of this petition. Petition No.: PLNPCM2021-00511

3. Resolution: Public Benefits Analysis and Recommendation - Digital Donation Program
The Council will accept public comment and consider adopting a resolution that would authorize the donation of certain City computers to benefit disadvantaged communities and low-moderate income families through a Digital Donation Program. The Information Management Services (IMS) is proposing the City donate surplus computers to community organizations that serve Salt Lake City's low-income families and individuals via an open application process. The organization will then disseminate the refurbished computers to its clients, carry out an initial digital literacy screening and/or training, and provide information and resources on internet access.

2. Ordinance: Text Amendment Eliminating the Special Exception Process from the Zoning Ordinance
The Council will consider adopting an ordinance that would delete and eliminate the special exception process from the zoning ordinance. A special exception is a minor alteration of a dimensional requirement of the zoning ordinance or addresses accessory uses and structures. The purpose of this proposal is to amend the zoning ordinance related to special exceptions to accomplish the following:
- Simplify the zoning ordinance by updating regulations and eliminating special
exceptions;
- Reallocate staff resources away from processing land use applications that favor individual properties and towards updating zoning codes to align with adopted master plans;
- Increase predictability and reduce neighbor conflicts that are created by
requests for exceptions to the zoning regulations;
There are more than forty special exceptions authorized in the zoning ordinance. The proposal addresses each special exception and results in each special exception being deleted, permitted, or authorized through a different process in the zoning ordinance. Some special exceptions that will become permitted include changes to standards to add flexibility and reduce impacts. Special exceptions are approved by staff of the Planning Division, the Planning Commission, or Historic Landmark Commission. Related provisions of Title 21A-Zoning and Title 14 may be amended as part of this petition. Petition No.: PLNPCM2020-00606
