ENDORSING THE “UTAH REDISTRICTING STANDARDS COMMISSION”
INITIATIVE

organizations and individuals supporting a call to place an initiative establishing a Utah
Redistricting Standards Commission on the November 2, 2010 general election ballot.

RESOLUTION #18-2009
A RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE 2020 VISION: A SUSTAINABLE MOAB PLAN
WHEREAS, the City of Moab, Utah was founded on the principles and values of
effective, efficient, and results-oriented local government; and
WHEREAS, the Moab City Council approved “A Resolution for a Sustainable Moab” on
December 9, 2008; and
WHEREAS the Moab City Council has determined that it is in the best interests of the
community that the City of Moab take a leadership role in championing volunteer efforts

NOW THEREFORE, WE THE GOVERNING BODY of the City of Moab do hereby
approve “2020 Vision: A Sustainable Moab Plan” as follows:
2020 Vision:
A Sustainable Moab Plan
The City of Moab can and should move toward the creation of a more sustainable
community. As our world comes face to face with new international economic realities
and with new paradigms of natural resource utilization, we can and we must ensure the
health and well-being of future residents while at the same time meeting the needs of our
current residents.
Beginning now and continuing over the next decade we will adopt achievable
goals that add to the quality of life of our current and future residents and lessen negative
impacts on the environment.
Water Conservation
Goal
Ensure the long term productivity of The City of Moab’s aquifers.
Objective
Reduce per-household, per-business and City-owned facilities’ water use by 20 percent
by the year 2020.
Action Steps
• Adopt a new water rate structure that rewards culinary water conservation.
• Investigate how other communities have implemented successful water
conservation plans and implement productive programs.

Memorandum
To: Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers
From: Rachel Ellison, City Recorder
Date: 08/21/2009
Re: Local Consent for Proximity Variance
Attached you will find a Local Consent application for a Full Service Restaurant Liquor License for
Jeffrey’s Steak House as well as an aerial map detailing the proximity issue. The proposed location
is within the 600 foot proximity requirement of Swanny City Park.
The process for granting a variance is somewhat confusing. The State will require a local public
hearing to solicit public comment prior to granting a variance. The State also requires that the City
Council give local consent to grant the proximity variance in order to proceed with the public
hearing. If the outcome of the public hearing was negative, the City Council could then withdraw
their consent to grant the proximity variance, however, the State can’t proceed with scheduling a
public hearing without approval from the City Council.
Our code also requires a public hearing in order for the City Council to approve a proximity variance
for the city Class II Restaurant license. During the last proximity process, the City opted to hold the
public hearing simultaneously with the State’s public hearing. I would recommend doing that again
to save time and avoid public confusion.
I am available to answer any questions you may have.
