CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP
Mayor Holmgren called the May 20, 2025 City Council Workshop to order at 6:01 p.m. The meeting was held in the City Council Meeting Room at 102 South Tremont Street, Tremonton, Utah. Those in attendance were Mayor Holmgren, Councilmembers Estep, Lewis, Rohde, Vance, and Westergard, City Manager Cobabe, Assistant City Manager Nessen, and City Recorder Nelson. The following Department Heads were also present: City Planner Jeff Seedall, Public Works Director Carl Mackley, Police Chief Dustin Cordova, Fire Chief Jeff Jarrow. Also in attendance was City Attorney Dustin Ericson.
1. Operational Budgets
Manager Cobabe said as requested, we went back, sharpened our pencils, and made sure the operational budgets were in line with best practices and the most efficient and responsible government. We did find a few things. The Council requested we look at salaries and compensation plans. One suggestion was rather than concentrate certain increases at one end of the spectrum, what if we spread those out with a 3% COLA and a 3% market adjustment, both across the board. In comparison with most cities our size, our compensation plan is lacking. That would bring us more in line with what the market conditions are suggesting. There was a little savings as we went through it and this makes the distribution more equitable across the spectrum. Assistant Manager Nessen said just in salaries this would be a savings of $46,000. Keep in mind that is a very small part of the General Fund (35%). A good chunk of that comes from the enterprise funds—water, wastewater, sewer, and storm drain because we spend time working in those fields. You will not see a $46,000 decrease in the General Fund, but would see some of it go down. The enterprise funds would see the savings, too. Manager Cobabe said about 90% of our positions are under market value, compared to other Class Four cities (10,000 to 30,000 population). We would like to rectify these deficiencies although compensation is not necessarily the only reason to stay in a job. Chief Cordova has been beating this drum for months about how we are going to start losing talent if we do not start compensating people at least to the market value. We want to make people feel valued while they are here and persuading them that if they stay on board long enough, they can work their way into something sustainable and at least competitive with other departments and cities. This 6% across the board with a 3% COLA with a 3% market adjustment is a good first step. It shows people we care and are interested in meeting them where they ought to be. Chief Cordova said this is a great gesture. It is going to get some people where they need to be. We completed a survey and the two top choices were eliminating positions and adjusting over time. This goes in line with adjusting over time to get them where they are at market value. It is not cost effective for us to continue to train people for other agencies. We have the advantage of our health insurance. We edge other agencies out in that. I am not a fan of across-the-board wage adjustments because not everyone necessarily deserves a raise. That is why we have created the pay scale to reflect their performance and to receive a merit increase based on if they are doing a good job. Manager Cobabe said the 3% COLA and 3% market adjustment would be in addition to the step system that Chief is working with. That was already approved this past year as a way to recognize we are trying to get up to the full market requirement. The Council asked if they could let department heads determine how the 3% market adjustment would be spread out instead of just saying 3% across the board. Manager Cobabe said at this time the 6% is not tied to merit. It is a recognition that the City has been behind the ball on getting people to where they ought to be with their salaries. The numbers show that about 90% of our employees are not making the minimum of what the market values their position to be at. That is exactly why we are losing employees. What is being proposed today is not necessarily merit based. It is market-based—a matter of bringing folks in line with the actual market conditions in an effort to retain them and show them we are interested in their longevity with the City. We want to hold on to these people. Does this feel like a step in the right direction?
Councilmember Vance said last time we met we had a positive $174,000 and now we are at $379,000 by squeezing out the operating budget. Last year we were able to take the excess, which was $2.4 million, and put that back into capital funds. This year we only have $379,000. There is no money to fund anything if we wanted to, except for the $379,000. If the fire fund would have been done differently, we would have been at $1 million. So, we dropped from $2.4 to $1 million in excess funds. The excess funds are really important because that is how we fund streets and parks. Manager Cobabe said that does not include additional revenue sources like a transportation utility fee or Truth in Taxation. We still do not have numbers as far as what the certified rate is going to be and what we can expect. There will be some growth, but we will not keep up with inflation. I do not envy your task because it is a question of reaching into people’s pockets. These funds are sacred. Monies that people give to the community and contribute toward a larger goal and purpose so they should be used sparingly and efficiently, and with the utmost of conservatism, gratitude, and humility. However, we should not kick the can further down the road. We are not doing people favors by saying we are not going to increase the taxes this year or even hold the rate the same in an effort to postpone something that is going to come due at some point.
Manager Cobabe said are we okay to push forward with the 3% COLA and the 3% market adjustment, across the board evenly? The counter proposal is to look at the 3% market adjustment instead as a merit-based adjustment and let department heads have their say on where that goes. At the end of the day, the number for the budget is going to be the same. This would just change the way it is applied. The Council agreed they would like to see department heads make the choice on how that is spread out to employees. Assistant Manager Nessen said this will come to the Council the second meeting in June to approve the updated compensation and classification plan.

7. Public comments:
Capree Baker said I want to address something has been going on for a few years. I wanted to read the definition of a conflict of interest, which was amended in the 2024 general session. It states, no public officer or public employee shall have personal investments in any business entity, which will create a substantial conflict between the offices or public employees’ private interests and the public offices or public employees’ public duties. The definition of a conflict of interest is when an individual of any of the above entities obtain financial benefits. For more than nine years, Micah Capener has been presiding as the chairman of the Planning Commission in Tremonton. For more than 13 years, Mr. Capener has been on the board. The Planning Commission members, past and current, have consisted of his employees, his employee’s spouses, and a sibling who is also a realtor and employee. He specializes in new construction, commercial, residential investments, property management, and rentals in our local area. He is responsible for maintaining structure development and has played a significant role in shaping Tremonton according to his own agenda, as he has immediate ties, influence and network. I believe that our chairman has direct beneficiary financial gains and I, like many, have growing concerns for the future of Tremonton. To focus on the betterment of Tremonton, I would like to recommend a personal change in our Planning Commission and our chairman. I would love to see individuals coming from all different backgrounds and areas to be a part of this new commission, especially someone in agriculture who can direct and provide better understanding on the impact of growth that is affecting our City and future. I wanted to focus on the conflict of interest that is blatantly there. When I went through the budget, there were a few things that stood out to me. Maybe you can give me some clarification on these items. The City purchased three homes in the Tremont Center and had the fire department do some demolition. Does the City still own these properties? Was it sold to the developer? Does the developer have these properties now and is he going to develop them? In a meeting, Mr. Capener stated that he was the developer of that area when the City purchased these houses in 2017. RDA article number two, there is a balance that continues to pay the developer, who I am assuming is Micah Capener. The fact that he is the chairman of the Planning Commission and profiting through the City, if all the I’s are dotted and the t’s are crossed, that is great. It just looks really, really bad. I am hopeful that the Council can recognize that Tremonton is our home. We worship here, work here, support local and are a team. We need to build each other and build this community in the right way. Thank you. Councilmember Vance said you need to be answered on all of those things. If you understand how it functions, the City did not gain one penny and I would like to explain all that to you.
Jami Poppleton said Tremonton City Government 3-509 says the Mayor shall open and introduce an item on the agenda in order. If the item is one that requires discussion, Council members can consider the item in a polite, civil, free-for-all type exchange of ideas for as long as they feel necessary. The Mayor may or may not, at his or her discretion, allow members of the public or staff to participate in the discussion. That being said, over the past two years with Midland Square being on the agenda tonight, there have been major discussions regarding Midland Square, the grant, RDA funds, and how to allocate those. The Steering Committee has wonderful volunteers on it. However, some of those members have tried several times to voice their thoughts and ideas and even presented concept drawings. Councilmembers, veterans, and residents have even tried having meetings with the Mayor and city staff. One happened six weeks ago and that particular meeting became rather heated behind closed doors. It was stated, that nobody has proof anyone has spoken to anyone in Salt Lake regarding the grant. Certain ideas and things could be pushed along with personal agendas regarding Midland Square. There is a huge conflict involving our Mayor as he sets out to push his own agenda. I have an email dated April 2, 2024 that states, and I quote, we have assured the City that we are very amenable to working with them to help them realize the economic development needs of the City and its citizens. James Dixon, the director of community grants. I have had this email for over a year. Several times on record during conversations, the Mayor has stated that the grant could not be changed. According to Mr. Dixon, it could have been, but because of reasons that some people might or might not agree with are in the best interest for Tremonton. I do not believe he has given a chance for the community to participate. With proof in my hands, with this email, because of the huge conflicts with the Steering Committee that he is also on and the things that people are saying, they tried to put through their own things. They tried to push through certain concept drawings. I ask that maybe the Mayor consider stepping down from any discussions that have to do with our RCOG grant or any closed-door meetings regarding Midland Square because of this conflict. Should he choose not to, I ask that Council put it on the agenda for a vote and decide if there is a conflict or not. Thank you.
Cassandra Merrill said with the Main Street discussion on the agenda tonight I just wanted to put my opinion forward. Last meeting, I watched the recording and loved the discussion and input everyone gave. I liked how there were different opinions and no one was afraid to speak up. There was a lot of genuine interest in wanting to make a good decision for the City. Things have already been started with the trees being taken down. I feel there is no way of being like, we are not going to do anything. Tonight, I hope we can come up with some kind of solution where the Council can give the Steering Committee guidance and can move forward to get something done. We need to do something because something has already started. Right now, it looks half started and not good. I hope with discussion tonight we can accomplish a plan for the Steering Committee and one you guys are proud of and the residents can be proud of.
8. Public Hearing
Mayor Holmgren called a Public Hearing to order at 7:21 p.m. to discuss the proposed annexation. There were 12 people in attendance.
a. To consider approving the proposed annexation of 3.87 acres of real property, referred to as the Riverfront Annexation, into Tremonton City’s incorporated limits. The 3.87 acres of real property is located in Box Elder County along the east side of 100 East, south of 1200 South, and along east bank of the Malad River.
There were no public comments. Mayor Holmgren closed the Public Hearing at 7:22 p.m.
9. New Council Business:
a. Discussion and consideration of adopting Ordinance No. 25-08 approving 3.87 acres of real property, referred to as the Riverfront Annexation, into Tremonton City’s incorporated limits. The 3.87 acres of real property is located in Box Elder County along the east side of 100 East, south of 1200 South, and along east bank of the Malad River
Motion by Councilmember Lewis to adopt the ordinance. Motion seconded by Councilmember Vance. Roll Call Vote: Councilmember Estep – yes, Councilmember Lewis – yes, Councilmember Rohde – yes, Councilmember Vance – yes, Councilmember Westergard – yes. Motion approved.
b. Discussion and consideration of adopting Resolution No. 25-20 amending Tremonton City’s Articles of Incorporation to include 3.87 acres of real property referred to as the Riverfront Annexation, into Tremonton City’s incorporated limits. The 3.87 acres of real property is located in Box Elder County along the east side of 100 East, south of 1200 South, and along east bank of the Malad River
Motion by Councilmember Vance to adopt the resolution. Motion seconded by Councilmember Estep. Roll Call Vote: Councilmember Estep – yes, Councilmember Lewis – yes, Councilmember Rohde – yes, Councilmember Vance – yes, Councilmember Westergard – yes. Motion approved.
c. Discussion and possible action on adopting Resolution No. 25-17 awarding a bid for the Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) Project
Mayor Holmgren said this is the project over in Deweyville where we are pumping water from the spring in the off season and putting it into an aquifer to preserve water during the summertime. Director Mackley said only two local contractors bid on the project. They were within 2% of each other. The winning bid is Forefront Engineering, who are just completing our pump line project. We would like for them to get to work on this next. This will be done in two phases so it seems less expensive, but there will be a second phase where we hire a contractor to do that. I am excited about this pilot project. This is a three-year project we will monitor and see what the results yield. Mayor Holmgren said we have a CDBG grant for $200,000 and the rest is made up with grant funding from the state.
Motion by Councilmember Westergard to approve the resolution. Motion seconded by Councilmember Rohde. Roll Call Vote: Councilmember Estep – yes, Councilmember Lewis – yes, Councilmember Rohde – yes, Councilmember Vance – yes, Councilmember Westergard – yes. Motion approved.
d. Discussion of Main Street Improvements
Motion by Councilmember Vance to move into closed meeting to discuss contracts for these improvements. Motion seconded by Councilmember Estep. Vote: Councilmember Estep – yes, Councilmember Lewis – yes, Councilmember Rohde – yes, Councilmember Vance – yes, Councilmember Westergard – yes. Motion approved.
The Council moved into a closed meeting at 7:32 p.m.
Motion by Councilmember Estep to return to open meeting. Motion seconded by Councilmember Rohde. Vote: Councilmember Estep – yes, Councilmember Lewis – yes, Councilmember Rohde – yes, Councilmember Vance – yes, Councilmember Westergard – yes. Motion approved.
The Council returned to open session at 7:43 p.m.
e. Discussion and consideration of adopting Resolution No. 25-19 to award a bid to Landmark Construction for the Midland Square Improvement Project
The Council discussed plans for Midland Square, which include leveling the ground and adding cement. A flagpole for the Space Force will be added. The veterans’ memorial will remain and have some additional area for future monuments. Restrooms will be added, as well as electrical and water. Trees and greenery, including grass will be planned. Councilmember Lewis said it is more about continuity with the project for Main Street. The lighting and everything needs to be consistent across the project. That is why I have been so adamant that it is all one in the same project. Now that we have general estimate numbers, that makes it a considerable item. I appreciate those efforts. We discussed that in the closed session so that the bids are fair and honest from the contractors without telling them where we are at. Councilmember Vance said I agree with that, thanks for getting the numbers so we know where we are. It is a good feeling to know we can afford what we are talking about doing on Main Street and the park at the same time. Mayor Holmgren said coming up with a theme and consistent lighting will be important for the Steering Committee to decide. We are going to rely on them for direction.
Motion by Councilmember Westergard to approve the resolution and award the bid to Landmark Construction. Motion seconded by Councilmember Lewis. Roll Call Vote: Councilmember Estep – yes, Councilmember Lewis – yes, Councilmember Rohde – yes, Councilmember Vance – yes, Councilmember Westergard – yes. Motion approved.
f. Discussion and consideration of adopting Resolution No. 25-21 selecting health insurance carriers and defining the City’s contribution for health insurance employee benefits for the 2025-2026 Fiscal Year
Assistant Manager Nessen reviewed the increases that happened with insurance for medical, dental, vision, and life. There were not a lot of changes. We kept it at 90/10 coverage (the City covering 90% and employees 10%). There was discussion last time of the Council not taking this benefit to save the City money. After more discussion the Council agreed this is a needed benefit for volunteering much of their time. The Council was willing to take a cut in benefits to 80/20, but not have them completely taken. It was decided to keep this benefit at 90/10 for the Council, along with all full-time employees.
Motion by Councilmember Westergard to keep insurance 90/10. Motion seconded by Councilmember Lewis. Roll Call Vote: Councilmember Estep – yes, Councilmember Lewis – yes, Councilmember Rohde – yes, Councilmember Vance – yes, Councilmember Westergard – yes. Motion approved.
g. Discussion and consideration of adopting Ordinance No. 25-09 amending the Land Use Code regarding annexations
Planner Seedall said we wanted to clean up the code and help align a couple things. We are pushing for people to do digital applications. The edits try to keep with the process of State code, along with what the City has chosen to do and align with the County’s policies on annexations. We wanted to put that in as our summary of how the City interprets the State code and with the County’s regulations as well. These are clerical changes.
Motion by Councilmember Vance to adopt the ordinance. Motion seconded by Councilmember Rohde. Roll Call Vote: Councilmember Estep – yes, Councilmember Lewis – yes, Councilmember Rohde – yes, Councilmember Vance – yes, Councilmember Westergard – yes. Motion approved.
h. Discussion and consideration of adopting Resolution No. 25-22 approving the Transportation Master Plan
Planner Seedall said last year, we contracted with Wall Consultant Group (WCG) to revamp our Transportation Master Plan. The timing of this worked out extremely coincidental with Inland Port coming to light. We were able to update the master plan to help show the transportation needs as the City continues to grow. In the previous Transportation Master Plan, there was a frontage road designed to help alleviate traffic needs as the City grows, but with the Inland Port coming, we looked at shifting that alignment so it would space with some improvements that UDOT is looking to have around I-84. Manager Cobabe said we are looking to make sure that as development happens, we have things in place to require collector and arterial roads that address traffic concerns, while keeping the level of service the same. This is a guiding document. We would say we want these roads in these locations with the intersections looking like this. This is extremely long-term. Planner Seedall said with this Transportation Master Plan, we can show the alignment of where we would like a road large enough to service that industrial area and how it connects to the rest of the road network. Manager Cobabe provided the example of asking for roundabouts in this area because they are safer and although they are more expensive, developers would be required to add them if it is added to this plan beforehand. We cannot ask for it later. If it is on the map, then they have to do it. Councilmember Rohde said I want to make sure we are not obligating ourselves to following this path. Manager Cobabe said no, this is guidance for developers specifically and explicitly as they come in and as the traffic studies that they provide us indicate. We can pick and choose where we want it to go and as the traffic patterns and the safety indicate, but if we do not put it in this document, we cannot require it of developers later on.
Motion by Councilmember Vance to adopt the resolution. Motion seconded by Councilmember Westergard. Roll Call Vote: Councilmember Estep – yes, Councilmember Lewis – yes, Councilmember Rohde – yes, Councilmember Vance – yes, Councilmember Westergard – yes. Motion approved.
i. Discussion and consideration of Tremonton Justice Court
City Attorney Dustin Ericson said there are three options on the table. First, leave things as they are presently, second is to do an interlocal with the Box Elder County Justice Court and move our court to Brigham City, or third see if Garland is interested in an interlocal with Tremonton. This last option would keep the court local. There are pros and cons to each. There are two major pros to keeping things here. First, would be that our officers would stay in the City. If they are in Brigham City for lengthy court items, that would either require overtime pay or leaving the City with less security. That would be a primary reason for keeping the court here. The other is convenience to citizens. It is difficult to quantify numbers. Costs are going to increase a bit being in Brigham because a court with a higher volume cost more. Your increases would be in prosecutorial services, public defender services, and officer costs. Your decrease would be in a judge. Assistant Manager Nessen said we pay the judge about $27,000. Councilmember Vance said that would probably increase on the other side and you lose autonomy of having everything here. Attorney Ericson said having some autonomy and a close-knit court where we are able to discuss things more informally is a benefit to our City. Manager Cobabe said from a staff standpoint, we like having the court here for a number of reasons. The numbers we looked at make it feel like it is a bit of a wash. As we grow in population this will be an important service. After discussion, the Council agreed it would be in the City’s best interest to keep the court. City staff will work with Garland to see if a combined court could be mutually beneficial.
10. Calendar Items and Previous Assignment
a. Review of calendar
Mayor Holmgren said we have the Farmer’s Market. Those are held the second and fourth Friday. The Memorial Day program will be on Monday May 26, at 9 a.m. The library’s Summer Reading kickoff party is May 30. Hay Days will be July 25-26 and we have the candidate filing June 2.
b. Unfinished Business/Action Items: None.
11. Reports & Comments:
a. City Administration Reports and Comments
Manager Cobabe said there are a lot of emails between myself and concerned citizens. I would request that you respond as an individual reaching out. Sometimes if you respond all, it can affect the way that those things are treated as far as open public meetings and GRAMA requests. If it is just between you and an individual, that is a completely separate category of communication. If you, as the Council, are responding then it becomes a quasi-meeting and becomes problematic. My preference would be to just let me respond. I do respond quickly and in a way that is respectful and informative. I do encourage people to talk to you if they have concerns. Your role is to listen to those concerns and reflect them in these meetings. Some questions that people have are best answered either by me, a department head, or a staff member. There is a lot of misinformation going around.
b. Development Review Committee Report and Comments
Planner Seedall said we are getting applications started for a variety of developments. We are working through getting those approved. It is going well.
c. City Department Head Reports and Comments
Director Mackley said our crew takes care of the cemetery so well. It means a lot to them. They take that very personal and do a great job. I wanted to clarify one thing. Two weeks ago, I mentioned that Public Works will be 100% funded outside of the General Fund. The exception is the cemetery. We do have plans to expand that. We have a pre-construction meeting tomorrow for our ASR projects. Thank you for approving that so we can move forward. The compound project is finishing up. We are next on the list for our dump truck, but it is still not equipped. It will not be in operation until the beginning of August.
Chief Cordova said the Torch Run was very successful. We did arrest a sex offender with 17 felonies. He is not a problem for us now and we will keep doing that work. A lot of stuff has moved online and we have seen a lot of success in the last two weeks with sex crime, as far as prostitution and narcotics. We have opened a bunch of old cases and are cleaning those out. We have our new body cameras. We are going to be doing training and have talked about the tasers. We can provide a demo if you are interested.
Chief Jarrow said thanks for all the support. Everyone has been awesome and super supportive. I am working on the budget and trying to get everything figured out. I have been meeting with everyone in the department to get a feel for morale. All in all, we are on a positive trajectory. We are moving forward as a department. I am really excited for the future. We are losing a few people due to their financial needs. We will keep navigating through those issues. We are trying to get everything ready for the Council for the new fiscal year so you can make the best decisions. We are going to go through the hiring process for part-time.
d. Council Reports and Comments
Councilmember Lewis said we have had some great meetings with people interested in bringing business to town. It is exciting to see some of that coming to fruition. Our town hall will be next Thursday night. We really want the public’s opinion. I love Tremonton. We do face a lot of criticism, but I hope we can represent the majority of our constituents and make them pleased.
Councilmember Westergard said I am glad we finally made some decisions this week. The cemetery looks good.
Councilmember Vance said I am glad we got numbers and are moving forward with Main Street. Thanks to everybody who has moved on that.
Councilmember Rohde said this Thursday our town hall meeting is at 7 p.m. We are going to be discussing Pillar 3. We will also do an open house in regards to the annexation proposal.
Mayor Holmgren said I would like to thank everybody. I appreciate your efforts and everything you do. We are getting ready for summer and are excited about the things happen.
