Development plans for Riverton are set to take a significant step forward this summer, marking a long-awaited milestone for the city. After two years of planning, construction is expected to begin on new housing units, contributing to the overall availability of living spaces in the area.
During the recent City Council meeting, officials expressed excitement about the upcoming project, emphasizing its importance for local growth. Council members noted positive feedback from businesses in Mountain View Village regarding the ongoing Bangerter 134 project, highlighting effective communication from the city that has eased concerns about potential disruptions.
In addition to development news, the council addressed the anticipated opening of a new transfer station on the East Side, scheduled for May. However, this progress comes with a warning: residents should prepare for fee increases. Councilman McDougall explained that these increases were planned five years ago but have been impacted by recent inflation. He urged the council to consider implementing smaller, annual fee adjustments to avoid larger jumps in costs down the line.
As Riverton moves forward with these developments, the city is poised for growth, but residents will need to brace for changes in service fees as part of the budgetary process. The council plans to delve deeper into these discussions in the coming months, ensuring that the community remains informed and prepared for the future.
