end

AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Resolution

RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Resolution R2023-10-03 to adopt the revised Board Policies as presented.

BACKGROUND:
The Utah Public Transit District Act section 17B-2a-8 outlines the duties and powers of a large transit district’s Board of Trustees. One of those duties includes developing and approving board policies, ordinances and bylaws after consultation with the Local Advisory Council.
The UTA Board of Trustees last updated their Board Policies in December 2022 and have recently performed a general review of those policies.

DISCUSSION:
The agency is recommending the following new and updated policies be approved as presented:
- Board Policy 1.1 Process for Establishing Board Policies (revised)
- Board Policy 1.3 Executive Relationships and Meeting Protocols (new policy)
- Board Policy 2.3 Budget (new policy)
- Board Policy 3.1 Advertising and Naming (revised)
- Board Policy 4.2 Public Records (revised)
As required by statute, the proposed policy revisions were presented to the Local Advisory Council on September 27, 2023 for their consultation and feedback and no additional comments were provided. We are now presenting the proposed policy revisions to the Board of Trustees for final review and approval.
Note - the marked-up version of the proposed Board policy revisions was published in the Local Advisory Council’s meeting packet for September 27, 2023 and can be accessed at www.rideuta.legistar.com <http://www.rideuta.legistar.com>

ALTERNATIVES:
The Board may modify the proposed policy revisions prior to adoption.

FISCAL IMPACT:
None
