The Local Advisory Council is requested to review proposed revisions to Board Policy 1.3 Executive Relationships and Meeting Protocols and Board Policy 3.3 Capital Development Project Implementation as presented and to provide feedback to the Board of Trustees prior to their adoption of the policies in December 2024.
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.
Board Policies 1.3 and 3.3 have been updated with input from relevant subject matter experts and are now available for Local Advisory Council consultation.
DISCUSSION:
The agency is requesting the Local Advisory Council’s review of the following policy revisions:
• Board Policy 1.3 Executive Relationships and Meeting Protocols (revised)
• Board Policy 3.3 Capital Development Project Implementation (revised)
The proposed policy revisions are in response to updates in Utah Code. 1.3 updates are in response to changes to the Open and Public Meetings Act. 3.3 updates are in response to changes in Utah Code § 72-1-2, et seq regarding transit related Capital Project Plans under the authority of the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT). Additionally, in both policies there are minor changes to wording to increase clarity.
ALTERNATIVES:
The Local Advisory Council is encouraged to provide input to the Board of Trustees with comments, advice, or recommended alternatives to the proposed policy revisions.
