# 09-22-2026 City Council Work Session

The Syracuse City Council work session held on September 22, 2026, included several procurement and budget-related discussions. Key topics included a proposed amendment to the municipal code on landscape standards, which the council ultimately decided not to advance to a vote due to concerns about potential overregulation and costs to property owners. The council reviewed fire department items such as renewing an inter-county automatic aid fire agreement including Hill Air Force Base, and declaring a 2011 Kenworth Firetender as surplus property for sale. Financial discussions covered updates to the ambulance hardship waiver program, moving to an online application process managed by the billing company, and amendments to the city wage scale and fiscal year 2026 budget, including carryover of construction projects and operational adjustments. The council also reviewed a proposed ACH fraud prevention policy and a memorandum of understanding with Davis County regarding Costco sales tax distribution, which will continue monthly despite ongoing state-level disputes. Several items were moved forward for consent agenda or future votes, reflecting ongoing efforts to manage city resources, contracts, and policies efficiently.
