Item Hearing · Budget
FY 2027 budget amendment (Resolution R26-40)
Approved
The Oct. 14 city recap says the council amended the fiscal 2027 budget, covering capital project carryovers, revisions and operational changes. It lists no amounts or vote.
Item Consent · Taxes and fees
Davis County memorandum on Costco sales tax
Approved
The memorandum covers distribution of Costco sales tax. Costco opened June 24, 2026, and the state Tax Commission was not notified of the 2024 annexation until August 2026. Davis County would forward the tax amounts collected before Jan. 1, 2027, and the agreement ends after that transfer. The Oct. 14 recap says the council authorized the memorandum of understanding with Davis County on Costco sales-tax distributions. It gives no vote.
Item Consent · Public safety
Resolution R26-37: intercounty automatic aid fire agreement
Approved
Renews a 2020 agreement with Weber and Davis County fire agencies that has expired, adds Hill Air Force Base Fire Protection, and runs five years. The Oct. 14 recap says the council authorized the intercounty automatic aid fire agreement. It gives no vote.
Item Consent · Other
Ambulance billing hardship policy and FY2027 wage scale
Approved
The Oct. 14 recap says the council updated its ambulance billing policy so financial hardship can be considered and updated the fiscal 2027 wage scale. The agenda had described the hardship policy as moving applications online and lowering the income threshold from 250% to 195% of the federal poverty guideline; the recap does not confirm those details. It gives no vote.
Item Consent · City code
Ordinance 2026-25 and fire tender surplus
Approved
The Oct. 14 recap says the council amended City Code 11.20.075 on Park and Ride lots so city administration can approve stays of more than 48 consecutive hours for the UTA vanpool, and declared a 2011 Kenworth fire tender surplus. A new water tender will replace it, according to the recap. It gives no vote.
Item Other · Other
ACH fraud prevention policy and Davis School District surplus property
Approved
The Oct. 14 recap says the council adopted an ACH Fraud Prevention and Fraud Monitoring Policy to detect and prevent fraudulent ACH transactions. The recap does not mention the possible acquisition of Davis School District surplus property that the agenda listed, so that part has no reported result. No amounts or vote are given.
Appointment
Appointments and youth court oath
Approved
The Oct. 14 recap says the council administered the oath of office to Syracuse Youth Court members and appointed Evan Brown to the Disaster Preparedness Committee.
