MOAB CITY COUNCIL MINUTES -- DRAFT
SPECIAL WORKSHOP MEETING
APRIL 24, 2017
Special Workshop Meeting & Attendance: The Moab City Council held a Special Meeting on the above
date in the Council Chambers at the Moab City Center, located at 217 East Center Street, Moab, Utah.
Mayor David Sakrison called the Workshop to order at 5:08 PM. In attendance were Councilmembers
Rani Derasary, Kyle Bailey, Heila Ershadi, and Kalen Jones. Also in attendance were City Manager David
Everitt, and City Recorder/Assistant City Manager Rachel Stenta. Councilmember Tawny Knuteson-
Boyd arrived at 5:38 PM.
The Meeting consisted of a Budget Workshop for the Proposed Fiscal Year 2017-2018 Annual Budget.
City Manager David Everitt began with an overview of water revenues, including water sales for metered
customers and "shop water" sales. Discussion ensued regarding water rates for the City customers and
how they compare to rates for customers of Grand Water and Sewer Services Agency (GWSSA).
Councilmember Bailey asked if there would be an upcharge for water usage beyond the base rate, and
City Manager Everitt suggested that a directive from Council to pursue a change in rates is a possibility.
Councilmember Ershadi asked when the rate study would take place, and whether the water
conservation board would consider the topic. Everitt stated it would likely be a priority for the board.
Mayor Sakrison suggested that raising the commercial water rate would be preferable to raising
residential rates.
Everitt continued with an overview of water expenses including a recommendation for a new position
on the water crew. He pointed out expenses exceed revenues by approximately $300,000. He added
that raising rates by 60% would make up that gap, without addressing capital improvement projects.
City Recorder/Assistant City Manager Stenta mentioned setting depreciation monies aside for future
infrastructure improvements.
Everitt outlined expenditures including the proposed water tank and other large capital improvement
items. He suggested that a bond would allow all the water system improvements to be made at once,
with the amount paid back over ten years. He pointed out that the budget would still show
expenditures exceeding revenues, although the amount would be less if there was a rate increase.
Councilmember Jones suggested a differentiation for non -primary residences. Councilmember Derasary
asked about special rates for those on fixed incomes, and Everitt suggested an agricultural discount.
The discussion then turned to the sewer budget. Everitt pointed out the recently -approved 20% rate
increases and how that will positively impact the bottom line. Councilmember Jones asked if there was a
Council decision to be made regarding this budget category. Everitt responded that no decision is
needed unless a larger rate increase becomes preferable to speed along several large infrastructure
projects, some of which are expected when the new water reclamation plant is completed.

1-1 Minutes
Councilmember Bailey asked about the priority of the south trunk line. There was discussion about
getting businesses surrounding Kane Creek Boulevard onto the new line. Also considered were
agreements between the City and GWSSA, involving the San Juan Spanish Valley Special Service District.
City Manager Everitt reiterated that increased rates would affect other agency users as well. Everitt
asked the Council members if there was any appetite to increase rates again. Councilmember Bailey said
no. Councilmember Jones suggested another increase could be considered in 2018.
Other topics discussed included whether the City can charge non -primary residential users a different
rate, or whether the City can charge a higher base rate. City Manager Everitt noted he would research
these questions as well as other topics, including rate options that emphasize commercial use; typical
household use; life span of the 100 West trunk line; funding opportunities for the south trunk line; and
questions about the split for stormwater expenses between residential and commercial users.
Discussion turned to budgeting for stormwater management, including the parking in lieu fee being
raised to account for better stormwater revenues. The main capital project in the budget pertains to the
Stewart Canyon stormwater infrastructure improvement associated with the Highway 191 widening
project.
A specific line item discussed involved the riparian habitat restoration projects.
City Manager Everitt pointed out that the several studies for infrastructure improvements will inform
the priorities in the coming years.
Adjournment: The meeting was adjourned at 6:53 PM.

MOAB CITY COUNCIL MINUTES -- DRAFT
REGULAR MEETING
APRIL 25, 2017
Regular Meeting & Attendance: The Moab City Council held its Regular Meeting on the above date in
the Council Chambers at the Moab City Center, located at 217 East Center Street, Moab, Utah. A
recording of the meeting is archived at http://www.utah.gov/pmn/index.html.
Pre -Council Workshop: Mayor David Sakrison called the Workshop to order at 5:00 PM. In attendance
were Councilmembers Rani Derasary, Heila Ershadi, Tawny Knuteson-Boyd, Kyle Bailey and Kalen Jones.
Also in attendance were City Manager David Everitt, City Recorder/Assistant City Manager Rachel
Stenta, Deputy Recorder Danielle Guerrero, and Interim Police Chief Steve Ross. Arriving after the first
workshop topic were City Attorney Chris McAnany, Public Works Director Pat Dean, City Treasurer
Jennie Ross, Community Services Director Amy Weiser, Planning Director Jeff Reinhart, Planning
Assistant Sommar Johnson, and Assistant City Engineer Mark Jolissaint.
The Workshop began with an Employment Interview between the Governing Body for the Appointed
Position of Police Chief and candidate Keith McPheeters.
Councilmember Derasary began the interview with a question related to Mr. McPheeters' resume cover
letter. He spoke about the habituation of law enforcement to respond to incidents in an isolated
manner; he stated it is his philosophy to address the source of the incident and to spend more time
relating to the causes in addition to dealing with isolated events. He gave an example of a juvenile
shoplifter and spoke of the importance of engaging community members to act as mentors.
Councilmember Bailey asked about school resource officers and McPheeters stated he was a strong
proponent of such officers and had written a successful grant to hire six officers.
Councilmember Derasary asked what McPheeters' top ten things were that he would focus on in the
Moab Police Department. He spoke about the angst of the department's staff, community relations to
restore the community's trust and respect for the department, professionalism and accreditation,
budget, grant writing, and public input.
Councilmember Knuteson-Boyd asked about his approach to dealing with a combative person who was
most likely mentally ill. McPheeters acknowledged that police departments have been slow to recognize
the requirements for dealing with this population. He continued that officers can be taught to use
weapons and how to deal with combative persons and are taught less about the cause of the
combativeness. He asks his officers to remember they are there to help and to use their skill set to
intervene and de-escalate situations and slow things down, and to not make things worse.
Councilmember Jones asked about McPheeters' approach to recruiting, hiring, and training staff. He
stated he could teach people how to do their jobs but he could not teach them how to respond to an
ethical or moral dilemma. He stated the importance of screening for communication skills and listening
skills.

1-2 Minutes
Councilmember Bailey asked why McPheeters is interested in Moab. He stated he is from Utah and he is
an outdoorsman and appreciates, understands, and enjoys Utah. He would like to make a positive
difference. He is retired from his role as police chief of Farmington, New Mexico.
Mayor Sakrison asked about his approach to Moab's diverse population and the specter of deportation.
McPheeters responded that the mission of the police department is to ensure that Moab is a safe
community and that there is no discrimination against any person who is victimized or is in need of
services. He continued that there is also no bias against criminals. He emphasized interagency
cooperation to deal with criminals.
Councilmember Ershadi asked about community policing. McPheeters replied that Farmington has a
very diverse workforce, and he described the value of that diversity.
Councilmember Derasary asked about mistakes he had made in his career, and he stated he felt
mistakes create learning experiences, and he described an incident. She also asked him about how he
can prepare for trends before they become concerns. He cited his research and readings regarding law
enforcement nationwide.
Councilmember Bailey asked about gang activity and McPheeters cited his approach to enlisting Federal
agents to press charges in his campaign to remove repeat offenders from his community.
Councilmember Jones asked about drug enforcement and cited Moab's proximity to Colorado where
recreational marijuana is legal. Jones wondered about the role of the police department in enforcement
beyond serious crimes such as violence or property destruction. McPheeters responded that he has
strong opinions about the unlawful and inappropriate use of drugs and alcohol and the effect such
activities have on families and communities. He gave an example of theft and its impact on tourists and
the psyche of crime victims. He cited the culture of drug trafficking and said low tolerance within the
community may effectively combat its influence. He said his officers would be trained to dissuade drug
activity. He cited the impact of Colorado's drug trade on Farmington. He stated the importance of
heading off a family cycle of criminality.
McPheeters concluded with his praise for Moab and his hope to have a positive impact on the
community and the police department. He encouraged Council to contact officials in Farmington.
Executive Session: At the conclusion of the interview, at 5:59 PM, Councilmember Jones moved to enter
an Executive Closed Session to Discuss the Character, Professional Competence, or Physical
or Mental Health of an Individual. Councilmember Derasary seconded the motion. The motion passed 5-

restoration, utilizing Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and other grants. She presented the need for a
Moab watershed plan, including a public education initiative for new residents and new government
