In a recent County Commission meeting held on September 3rd, significant decisions were made regarding local land use and zoning regulations. The commission unanimously voted to deny a rezone request for Moab Heat and Cool, located at 50 1540 Spanish Valley Drive. This decision includes a 180-day cease and desist order on all commercial activities at the property, reflecting the commission's stance on maintaining current zoning standards.
Additionally, the commission passed a resolution to initiate proceedings for amending the land use code, granting a 180-day extension for further discussions and considerations. This resolution was approved with a vote of 4 to 1, with Commissioner Winfield opposing and Commissioner McCurdy abstaining from the vote.
These actions highlight the commission's ongoing efforts to regulate land use effectively and respond to community concerns regarding commercial developments in the area. Further discussions and potential amendments to the land use code are expected in the coming months as the commission seeks to balance development with community interests.
