07-16-21: DIGITAL MARQUEE SIGNS AT MILLCREEK COMMON; VO; DAY OF SERVICE; SUMMER JAM SERIES; etc View this email in your browser Millcreek Common needs effective digital signage to support small local entrepreneurs, pop up markets in the Public Market, activities on Millcreek Common, and public service announcements, all of which will change frequently. Announcements PUBLIC MEETINGS Planning Commission Wed., July 21, 5:00 pm City Hall, 3330 S 1300 E Agenda below Join virtually HERE NEWS NEGOTIATIONS CONTINUE ON POTENTIAL ELECTRONIC MARQUEE SPONSORSHIP FOR MILLCREEK COMMON MILLCREEK. In a staff report at Monday’s city council meeting, staff presented two big challenges facing Millcreek Common, and a potential solution. The first challenge is the need for professional, state-of-the-art digital marquees at all three entry points into Millcreek Common ---PAGE BREAK--- (on 3300 S, Highland Drive, and Richmond Street). To build, digital marquees cost approximately $250,000 each. The marquees are essential to support the small businesses in the new development, as well as the many city activities that will be happening weekly on the new plaza. The other challenge is the need to remove a 40’ high billboard at 1347 East 3300 South which is in the way of construction of the new Millcreek Common. When condemning billboards, Utah law requires cities to pay out the sign owner the lifetime value of the advertising, and estimates for this sign run between $1 million and $1.3 million. This 40' high billboard at 1347 E 3300 S MUST be removed for Millcreek Common construction to proceed. Staff is in ongoing discussions with Reagan Outdoor, whose representatives have indicated that they are open to the following sponsorship idea: Reagan Outdoor would sponsor all three Millcreek Common marquees at no cost to the city to build, operate, or maintain. Millcreek would have more than one-third of the turns on the digital signs (3 of 8 turns for Millcreek, 5 for Reagan). In exchange, Reagan would permanently remove six billboards in the city center area. (See which ones in the entire staff report HERE) The electronic marquees would be dimmed at night, the light would be unseen from side angles, and the city would determine the height of the signs. The city would consult the electronic messaging center guidelines from the International Dark-Sky Association. According to them, “when installed and operated in accordance with IDA’s Guidance for Electronic Messaging Centers, EMCs replacing traditional bulb-lit billboards may actually create a net reduction in sky brightness.” ---PAGE BREAK--- Negotiations on a potential transaction are ongoing and the city sign ordinance would need to be changed to allow electronic signs on city owned property in the City Center Overlay Zone. There will be further opportunities to learn of developing details about this proposal and to offer comments at each of Millcreek's Community Councils and the Planning Commission before this reaches the City Council.

Following two wildfires in 2020, both of which had the potential of becoming life threatening or causing serious damage to homes in the Mt Olympus area of our city, there was a tremendous response from residents who live along the wildland interface to this year's recent Chipper Days. Spearheaded by the Mt Olympus Community Council in coordination with the city Emergency Manager, Andrew Clark, more than 70 homeowners cleared trees and brush from around their homes and deposited it on the street to be chipped and hauled away. A huge thanks to the men and women of the Unified Fire Wildland crew for their hard (and very hot) work running the chipper and taking care of the piles along the roads. The UFA has participated with Millcreek for several years helping make our community "Firewise". During this year of intense heat and drought their assistance to homeowners clearing fire hazards away from their homes is even more important. Kudos to all involved for helping keep us safe! Nine of the ten-person UFA wildland crew taking a much deserved break from their chipping duties. ---PAGE BREAK--- New Permitting/Licensing Software Launch Delayed MILLCREEK.
