Action 1.1.ii Identify and prioritize maintaining pre-existing residential uses which predate current zoning allowances (legal duplexes within single family zones)
Comment
I feel that "infill densities" could be used here - it's a contentious word, but I think it really gets to the point.
Question
was there thoughts on not including Office as secondary here?

Let's include Office as secondary

Action 3.3.ii.
Continue to support residents with resources for agricultural and conservation easements.
Suggested Revision
Revision for this paragraph.
Canals and irrigation ditches, many of which are remnants of early agricultural infrastructure, still provide the critical function of providing untreated irrigation water to properties, some of which maintain an agricultural use.
Irrigation conveyance can create challenges for network integrity and infill development due to their location and maintenance history by property owners and water share holders. Development costs may increase as property owners relocate, maintain, or improve irrigation infrastructure to ensure the integrity of the network.
Suggested Revision
rephrase considerable turf cover to abundant landscaping
Suggested Revision
Add additional provider:
Secondary Source Water Providers
Privately owned and operated water companies have provided secondary water services to water rights within Holladay and neighboring jurisdictions. Water conveyance is dependent on canal and irrigation lateral networks. These private facilities are critical to be maintained and function as they cross a mixture of both public and private properties. Recognizing that new development can affect the integrity of irrigation networks, statutory obligations require provisions that prevent obstructions or unauthorized modifications. The City should continue to facilitate coordination between property owners and secondary water providers to ensure the integrity of these critical water systems.
Suggested Revision
Holladay adopted water efficient landscaping standards for new development in line with requirements by the Central Utah Water Conservancy District in 2023. Key elements include implementation of Localscapes principles, allowing turf only in areas that are 8 feet wide or wider, no turf in park strips, paths, or on slopes greater than 25%, and cannot cover more than 35% of the total landscaped area.
Suggested Revision
Central Utah Water Conservancy District identifies the metering of all secondary water connections by 2040 as an improvement in helping to meet water conservation goals. While metering is not utilized by irrigation and canal companies in their delivery of water, there is a larger program of monitoring of water shares that are delivered to owners.
Suggested Revision
Residents are encouraged to utilize tools by their water provider to assess their individual water usage. Salt Lake City Public Utilities has partnered with Utah State University to provide water use assesments for individual parcels with the WaterMaps application. Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District uses enhanced water bills and has a personalized web portal to provide water consumption feedback.
Suggested Revision
The Central Utah Water Conservancy District's conservation plan points out that over watering landscaping is a concern for all of Utah with Utahns apply up to 50 inches of supplemental water to a typical landspace that requires 21 inches of water. They identify that switching to less water intensive landscaping and reducing overwatering are significant opportunity areas for water savings and will have significant impacts on overall water use.

Add a column for SLCPU 2025 draft plan.
Residential Use: 73 Commercial: 72 Institutional: 19 Total: 174 Goal: 174 (2030), 164 (2040)
Technical Edit
instead of putting the year here, add as parentheses for each provider. Holliday Water and JVWCD are 2035, SLCPU is 2030
Technical Edit
this one needs a parenthesis (2030)
Suggested Revision
I'm seeing 173 for 2035 on page 43 for their selected goals (hybrid of alternative 1 and 4).

Rephrase to lead with what the 2019 use was (and label as 2019) and that the conservation goal was to reduce demand to 197 gpcpd by 2035.
The ... plan highlights a goal to reduce water use from 2019's 209 gpcpd to 197 gpcpd by 2035.
Suggested Revision
I believe this should be 2020 as their plan is labeled 2020

Suggested Revision
Is the DNR goal the Utah Regional M&I Water Conservation Goal? If so, rename. If not, add an additional line for it. That number is 187 gpcd.
Suggested Revision
Salt Lake City Public Utilities also breaks down residential uses to various levels of multi-family use. Single family land uses use 65% of their water outdoors, duplexes use 45%, and triplexes up to apartments use 32%. Mixed uses, restaurants, hotels, and industry have the lowest outdoor water use.
Question
Is this table in creation? Does it need to be created? Do you need some numbers/data still?
Suggested Revision
Holliday Water does serve some of Millcreek, so change this sentence to reflect that.
Suggested Revision
In addition to culinary water service providers, several irrigation and canal companies provide irrigation water delivery through various canals and irrigation lines/laterals. There are ten irrigation providers in Holladay.
(*not sure if we should name all 10, or the main ones.)
Suggested Revision
Rephrase or add to "planning for a changing climate" to incorporate some information on water supply and demand and how higher temperatures and reduced precipitation affects both.

Water supply is tied to precipitation and while some years may have higher than average snow and rain, other years are drier. Warmer temperatures begin earlier in the spring and extend later into the fall and there are longer periods of higher temperatures without precipitation. All of these factors conversely increase water demand. High demand and reduced supply are both further compounded when there are consecutive dry years.

Suggested Revision
An additional rebate for trees and drip irrigation can be used in conjunction with an approved lawn removal project. The Utah Water Savers program has additional incentives for new construction in backyards.

Could include link link, so long as we can update the link if this changes.

We may also want to put a date in here for context. The state incentive program started on May 1, 2023. I'm not sure if this program has a funding pool that would end either by use or by date, or if the legislature could end funding suddenly.

Maybe a statement that rebates may vary over time with various incentives being added or removed.
Suggested Revision
Add similar language as other providers referencing the JVWCD conservation plan and link

Suggested Revision
Salt Lake City Public Utilities has additional rebates and conservation incentives and guides for water customers.
