PETITIONS
Petition 400-200 of 1984 submitted by 7-11 Food Stores (Southland Corp.)
RE: An ordinance rezoning a 50’ piece of land on the northwest corner of 1700 South and 900 West from “R-2” to “B-3” classification.
Ms. Leigh von der Esch, executive director for the Council, said that an ordinance had been adopted on August 9, 1984 approving the rezoning upon certain conditions being met. She said that staff has been working with Southland for four weeks to satisfy the conditions. Ms. von der Esch explained that Southland’s attorneys have a problem with the waiver for any special improvement districts. They indicated that they are unable to sign the waiver due to the fact that it does not specify the amount of property that will be needed for the improvements. Even if the waiver is rewritten to include an amount it will take another four to six weeks to go through their system. Their real estate contract cannot be closed until they receive a building permit and the ordinance is written so that it will not become effective and a permit cannot be issued until the waiver is signed.
Mark Hafey, planning and zoning, indicated that it may be possible to issue a building permit and hold the certificate of occupancy (c.o.) until the waiver is received. He said that engineering has not designed the special improvement district and it could be six months before they can determine exactly how much property will be needed. John Chapman, Southland Corp., explained that they cannot get an extension on their real estate contract and if they cannot get a building permit they may loose the property. He felt that Southland would be agreeable to receive a permit without a C.O. Councilmember Fonnesbeck was concerned that Southland may not follow through with the waiver. Councilmember Hardwick felt that any delays were on the part of Southland.
Councilmember Mabey moved and Councilmember Parker seconded to direct the city attorney to prepare an ordinance amending Bill 54 of 1984 by deleting the condition of an executed waiver, stipulating that a building permit be issued conditional upon no final inspection, utility hook-ups or certificate of occupancy being authorized until receipt of the executed waiver, which motion passed, all members present voting aye except Councilmember Hardwick who voted nay and Councilmember Fonnesbeck who abstained.

DEPARTMENTAL BUSINESS
CITY ATTORNEY
#1. RE: Consider and adopt a resolution authorizing the execution of an interlocal Cooperation Agreement between Salt Lake City Corporation and the State of Utah, whereby the State of Utah agrees to comply with City ordinances and normal requirements related to the design, review and construction of an industrial office park subdivision, the State of Utah agrees to comply with the City’s requirements related to the extension of the public infrastructure needed to service the development, and the State of Utah agrees to waive its statutory exemption from complying with the City’s ordinances for the purposes of enforcing the terms of the agreement. This item was pulled from the agenda because the contract had not been returned by the state.
