The Summit County Snyderville Basin Planning Commission meeting on March 26, 2024, focused on the proposed development of a new grocery store in the area. The representative outlined plans for a grocery store covering 36,000 square feet, with an additional 6,000 square feet designated for potential tenant expansion.
During the discussion, it was noted that the Master Planned Development (MPD) guidelines require a special review for commercial spaces ranging from 20,000 to 40,000 square feet. This requirement aims to ensure that developments meet community standards and address local needs effectively.
The existing grocery store in the vicinity was mentioned as being modeled after a fresh market concept, specifically referencing a similar establishment in Park City. This connection highlights the intention to create a shopping experience that aligns with local preferences and market trends.
As the planning process continues, the commission will evaluate the proposal further, considering community input and compliance with zoning regulations. The outcome of this review will be significant for the area's commercial landscape and local residents.
