Commissioners said the extension gives Forza and the landowners time to record the plat with Weber County and to complete a required overflow parking build associated with the Ken Garff property before entitlements expire. Staff said recording the plat with Weber County is a condition for construction to proceed.

Brandon Cooper, planning staff, explained the commission can grant six-month extensions if the request is made prior to the approval’s expiration and summarized the project’s recent history: the plat had previously been extended to Feb. 1, several site-plan approvals had expired and been reapproved, and the development team has changed from Wright Development to the Forza Group.

Matt Steiner, representing Forza and the landowners, said the team has a new equity partner and expects to begin construction on the parking lot within roughly 60–90 days and to begin vertical construction on the apartments by the end of summer. Steiner said the landowners kicked off a reappraisal and have bidders for the parking-lot work; he told the commission the development group has “LOIs” and an operating agreement in place and is finalizing a development agreement once the project’s approval status is assured.

Several commissioners said they sympathize with the developers’ financing and partner changes but emphasized the political and community cost of repeated extensions. One commissioner noted residents remain frustrated after the mobile-home park was rezoned and cleared, and said the commission must weigh developers’ needs against residents’ expectations.

The motion to grant the extension passed 4 yes, 2 no. Commissioners answering “yes” when polled were Mister Nye, Mister Anderson, Commissioner Noland and Commissioner Hintra; Commissioners Spires and Paulson voted “no.” The commission recorded the outcome as an approval with the expectation the project will proceed and not be revisited unless necessary.

Discussion vs. decision: Commissioners framed the vote as a conditional, last-chance opportunity. Staff and the applicant described next steps (plat recordation with Weber County, parking-lot bidding, finalizing development agreements) as actions that need to occur during the extension; the commission did not impose additional conditions beyond enforcing existing plat-recordation and entitlement rules.

What stays unresolved: The commission did not receive a signed, final development agreement at the meeting; Steiner said a formal development agreement and final construction contracts were being finalized contingent on the extension and plat-recordation. The commission expressly warned that lack of demonstrable progress by the new Aug. 1 deadline would make future extensions unlikely.

Outcome and implementation: The extension allows the current entitlements to remain in effect until Aug. 1, 2025, giving Forza time to record the plat; if the plat is not recorded by then, the entitlements will expire and the developer would need to resubmit an application for approval. Staff implementation responsibility: Planning Department (plat recordation review and confirmation).","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Riverdale City Utah Planning Commission Meeting 1/28/2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Riverdale City Planning Commission on Jan. 28 voted 4–2 to grant Forza Development a six-month extension, to Aug. 1, 2025, for subdivision plat approval for the Riverside Flat Apartments at about 667 West 4400 South.

Brandon Cooper said the contractor for the America First Credit Union site has revised its start date for hillside stabilization and piling work to Feb. 10; staff warned that work “will be significantly loud” when it begins. Cooper said the contractor changed their access strategy to work from the top down, rather than building access roads from the bottom, to better manage moisture in the hill. The contractor had delayed work because of wet conditions and groundwater concerns.

Cooper also said a 30-inch Weber Basin water line crosses the 1500 New Road alignment near the roundabout and makes the tie-in difficult. To accommodate that utility conflict, the contractor plans to switch the pavement at the roundabout from asphalt to concrete so paving can proceed; however, Cooper said the remainder of the 1500 New Road alignment up to 4400 South likely will not be complete until next year. Staff said they have asked the contractor to maintain east–west access through the area, but local lanes will be reduced and traffic will be heavily impacted during construction.

Other project updates: Cooper reported visible progress at the Ken Garff site and at Panera; he noted framing at Coleman View Estates and said Mission Barbecue will begin soon. Staff also said there is new interest and an application inquiry for a Speedway site that had closed. Cooper said Trader Joe’s is expected to receive a building permit in the coming week, pending final paperwork.

Cooper mentioned the Ritter roundabout as a project hoped to be bid and awarded soon. Commissioners and staff also discussed retail vacancies: the former Bed Bath & Beyond space presently houses American Freight and appears to be closing; Thrive Appliances is closed; the large empty RC Willey/RC Willey-sized box remains difficult to lease due to size and owner expectations. Commissioners suggested smaller tenant splits, food-court-style concepts or entertainment uses as possible alternatives for large vacant retail space.

These reports were informational; no formal action was taken. Staff said they will continue to coordinate with contractors and utilities on traffic access and paving sequencing and will report significant schedule changes back to the commission.","Planning staff told commissioners Jan. 28 that hillside work for America First Credit Union is delayed until Feb. 10 because of wet conditions; a 30-inch Weber Basin water line requires a concrete roundabout tie-in and delays completion of 1500 New Road into next year.

Planning staff reported that the original plat had been approved Aug. 15, 2023, and that the project had previously received one extension to Feb. 15, 2025. Staff told commissioners that bonding requirements have been met for the improvements the city requires, phases 1 and 2 of the project are largely installed and recorded, and home construction is underway.

A representative for the developer (identified in the meeting as Thadiam Falls) told commissioners the model home is framed and mechanicals are being installed, three building permits have been pulled, and two or more foundations are underway. He said Goldcrest and the builders expect construction and infrastructure work to continue and estimated full buildout in roughly 2½ to 3 years.

Commissioners asked about amenities and utility easements. Staff and the developer said the project’s open space is platted and secured; planned amenities include pickleball courts, athletic courts, trails, a pavilion and a detention pond with trails around it. Commissioners were told a Rocky Mountain Power corridor runs through part of the site; the developer and staff said no buildings are planned under that corridor and amenities will be sited to comply with easement restrictions.

The motion to extend the plat passed on a roll call with all commissioners present voting in favor. When polled commissioners responded “yes”: Mister Henstra, Mister Folsom, Mister Knight, Mister Anderson, Commissioner Spires and Mister Nolan. Staff said the extension will allow time to complete phase 3 improvements and to record that portion of the plat with Weber County.

Discussion vs. decision: The meeting record shows this was primarily an administrative and technical extension. Staff confirmed bonding and that infrastructure for phases 1 and 2 is largely in place; the extension covers timing for phase 3. No additional conditions were added beyond usual plat-recordation requirements.

Outcome and implementation: The extension keeps the plat’s entitlements active through Aug. 15, 2025; staff will verify required improvements and recordation of phase 3 in the city’s administrative files.","Riverdale commissioners unanimously approved a six-month extension to Aug. 15, 2025 for the Coleman View Estates subdivision plat (5368 South 1050 West).
