Description/Agenda

Approved FINAL I. Welcome & Bring Meeting to Order - Chair Moana Moana welcomed everyone and called the meeting to order at 9:12 AM. II. Public Comment Period - Moana Moana opened the floor for public comment. No members of the public were present. III. Action Item: Approval of January 23, 2023 Meeting Minutes - Moana Moana called for a motion to approve the meeting minutes. Don Tingey motioned to approve the minutes. Vicki Bourns seconded, and the motion passed unanimously. IV. Discussion: General Practices Work Committee Recommendation - WC Matt summarized the general practices work committee's work. There were no current recommendations to be made to the applications, but a recommendation to continue the work throughout the year for long-term planning. The work committee identified they would like to update and simplify the application with more accessible language. The other focus they would like to improve is the continued incorporation of I.D.E.A practices. Don commented that these were good focuses and updates. He asked about the ability to copy over previous application information. Vicki provided answers, and Matt said he would follow up with ZAP staff to provide an additional information. V. Discussion: Financial Work Committee Recommendation - WC Matt explained the purpose of the financial work committee was to update the Tier I application as needed. Vicki, a member of the financial work committee, elaborated on the work that was done. The committee looked at what had been previously done, and used the Western Region CPI index from when COVID-19 was a large impact, but looked at before. They determined that they would move the Qualifying Expenditure amount to 390,000. She noted that this would not impact any current Tier I or Zoological organizations. Matt pulled up the scenarios that were presented, and how they chose the number 390,000, and Vicki explained why it was the equitable choice. Vicki made a note that for the memos, it should be included that the audits required should say that they are for the most recent years. She also noted a typo that says Tier II when it should be Tier I in the summary. Matt commented that this change will be proposed for the February 21 County Council Work Session, but it will likely not go to council until February 28. VI. Action Item: Approve Work Committees' Recommendations - Moana Vicki motioned to approve the work committee's recommendation of Qualifying Expenditures be $390,000 for Tier I + Zoological organizations. Bill seconded the motion, and it passed unanimously. VII. Other Topics - Advisory Board Matt updated the board on the Tier I + Zoological applications which will open up on April 3 and close on May 31, 2023. He also reminded everyone about the upcoming ZAP Open House event on February 16. Moana commented that there has been discussion of hosting Lunch & Learns. Bill asked about board re-appointments, and Matt confirmed that will be brought to council on February 28 as well. Bill also asked if there were organizations other than West Valley Arts with concerning financials, and Matt commented that Utah Presents also failed their 2023 Financial Health Test, which they will address in their 2024 application. Matt also informed the board that he and Samantha met with West Valley Arts, who are still determining whether they were going to reapply for Tier I. Their response was positive and was grateful for the board's feedback. Don asked about ZAP 2024 plans, which Matt spoke to Samantha currently developing a plan as well as working on an economic impact study with Kem Gardner Policy Institute. VIII. Adjourn - Moana Moana called for a motion to adjourn. Vicki motioned to adjourn, Don seconded and the meeting was adjourned at 9:48 AM.
