Local Corridor Preservation Funds Application
Mountainland Association of Governments Acting for and in behalf of

Application for Funds Due to the limited amount of funds available, jurisdictions are strongly encouraged to exhaust other avenues for acquisition prior to applying for funds. Before consideration of awarding funds can occur, following must be completed and submitted with this application: 1) Documentation by applicant of prior use of all appropriate resources available to the highway authority to acquire property rights, including but not limited to: use of other local funds, exactions, increased setback requirements, or other planning and zoning tools. 2) Initial approach to property owner and obtaining a certified property appraisal. 3) Securing of a Willing Seller Certification document. Part 1: Use of Other Resources
Discuss with MAG staff the efforts to obtain the property by planning and zoning powers, development incentive, donation, or other means prior to applying for these funds. Document these efforts Part 2: Initial Approach to Property Owner Contact MAG staff prior to any discussions with the property owner of purchase price or commitments to purchase, and for any questions. DO NOT tender any offer to purchase the property interest at this time. If the property owner agrees to consider selling, the applicant orders a property appraisal from a certified appraiser that is acceptable to both parties. For properties intended for future use by UDOT, the appraiser should be listed on the current UDOT Consultant Services Right of Way Services and Local Government Pool http://www.udot.utah.gov/main/uconowner.gf?n=14847302578685475).

Shawn Seager
BACKGROUND:
Sherrie Hall Everett, who has served on the UTA Board of Trustees has recently submitted her letter of resignation. Currently Utah County has two out of sixteen seats on the UTA Board of Trustees.

It will reduce the number of the governing board to three members and create an advisory committee. On May 22 2018 the Utah county COG held an electronic COG meeting to nominate individuals and replace Sherrie Hall Everette as Utah County’s appointee to the UTA board. Andrew Jackson and John Dougall where nominated. Andrew Jackson was selected by COG to represent Utah County to UTA.

Air Quality Update
PREPARED BY:
Shauna Mecham
BACKGROUND:
Air quality is consistently selected as one of the most negative aspects of living in Utah. Although we only violate the EPA’s standard 5-10 days a year, the effect is a region-wide feeling of confinement. Our mountains, valleys, and wintertime weather mean inversions will always be an issue to some degree, but how much we emit on those days can make a difference. With the introduction of Tier 3 Fuels and Vehicles, as well as improvements to transit and trails, vehicular emissions are expected to be cut in half in the next 10 years, even as population increases. Soon Area Sources (homes and small businesses) will be the biggest polluters.

Air Quality Fact Sheet
The Wasatch Front does not currently meet National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Particulate Matter (PM) 2.5
We do, however, have a plan in place and are reaching yearly goals to meet those standards by 2024 if not sooner.
On average 9 days out of a year exceed these standards. The other 356 days Utah County meet the National Standard.
Our mountain valley geography coupled with wintertime inversion weather patterns contribute to these 9 bad air day per year.
