American Fork leaders work on strategic goals March 19, 2017, 4:11 pm1: Street management. City leaders have decided to prioritize a road project for every quadrant within the city. 200 South will be the priority project for the southwest quadrant. 2: Reduce debt. The city council hopes to find some opportunities to pay down debt or refinance its bonds. Currently, the Broadband Fund Balance has a negative fund balance. City staff is putting together a plan to bring that fund back to a positive balance. 3: Secure culinary water. Culinary water projects being considered include a 600 East water main replacement, a Spring Line replacement and a new water tank assessment. 4: Improve communications. City leaders plan to improve communications through five "creative pathways": Improve Internal City Communication, External City Communication, Emergency Plan, Legislators and Branding. 5: Facilities and fleet management. In this area, city leaders also identified five creative pathways: Development of a Facilities Master Plan, Inventory Department Facility Needs, Development of a Fleet Management Plan, Art Dye Master Plan and Fiber Conduit. City Manager David Bunker told the mayor and council that the city would be researching the feasibility of doing a project to provide a fiber conduit to certain locations in the city or requiring those conduits to go in where new development takes place. The council also passed a resolution declaring several items, including nine police department vehicles and two ambulances, as surplus.
