City Council - November 7, 2023

Meeting Summary

The November 7, 2023 Lehi City Council meeting was a special afternoon work session, distinct from the council's regular evening meeting schedule. The session's primary purpose was to receive the annual PARC Tax presentations from recipient organizations — a required step in the city's oversight of its Parks, Arts, Recreation, and Culture tax funding. Organizations presenting to the council included the Lehi Arts Council, Thanksgiving Point Institute, Lehi Historical Society and Archives, and the Roots of Humanity Foundation, each reporting on how PARC Tax funds were used during fiscal year 2023. Following the presentations, councilmembers participated in a tour of the Lehi Block Transit-Oriented Development site. The Lehi Block TOD is a major mixed-use redevelopment project planned near the FrontRunner commuter rail station, intended to bring higher-density housing, retail, and commercial activity to the area around the station. The tour gave council members an on-the-ground look at the site as planning and development on that project continues to advance. No votes or formal actions were taken at this work session. The regular City Council meeting with its full legislative agenda followed on November 14, 2023.
