Director Daniel Cardenas said the applicant, Maple Springs of PG Holdings LLC, seeks the change to allow medical and professional offices; staff noted the city's general plan future land-use map already designates the parcels for professional office use. Cardenas described regulatory differences between R-1-8 and PO zones, including larger setbacks, masonry walls and different lot-coverage and building standards in the PO zone; he said professional offices in PO would permit physician and dental offices and many other professional services but would exclude hospitals and certain residential-care uses.

Several nearby residents spoke at the public hearing. Carrie Hammond, whose home at 1877 W. 1100 North abuts the site, said the property uses had historically been family-owned and expressed concerns that rezoning would create an island of residences surrounded by commercial development. Hammond said the private access drive to her home is shared and that Maple Springs had not contacted the homeowners. She listed concerns about traffic, odors, dumpster service and maintaining private well access.

Greg Larson, representing Maple Springs, said the developer purchased the property and is proposing medical offices, including a surgical center; he told the council the developer would work to address access and well issues and said: “We have no plan of destroying any of that for you.”

Council members voiced mixed views. Several members said they were sympathetic to residents' expectations when they bought homes in a residential area; others noted private property owners may seek zoning changes and that PO can be less visually intensive than some residential infill. Planning commission had recommended approval 6–1.

Councilmember Anderson moved to continue the item for two weeks (to allow developers and residents to meet); the motion passed. The council asked that the applicant meet with the three affected property owners and report back to staff and the council at the continued hearing. The council scheduled the matter for the next meeting and cautioned that, because the general plan supports PO for the parcels, a denial would require written findings if that is the council's intent.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Pleasant Grove City Council Meeting 3/18/2025","oneSentenceSummary","Pleasant Grove council continued a proposed rezoning of roughly 7.5 acres from single-family (R-1-8) to professional office (PO) after neighbors raised traffic, access and compatibility concerns.","taxTitle","Pleasant Grove, Utah County, Utah","taxId",4710,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6631389,"Council approves small zoning cleanup to eliminate split zoning at Tag & Go site",203,1026000,1229000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2679901-6b26f90f3c15196af784bb3b0f5c753c&start=1026&end=1229","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2679901-6b26f90f3c15196af784bb3b0f5c753c/thumbnail_1026000.jpg","/articles/6631389/Pleasant-Grove/Utah-County/Utah/Council-approves-small-zoning-cleanup-to-eliminate-split-zoning-at-Tag-Go-site","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6631389-daecdfcf57642dc89f4f8084282b2ab4/orig.mp4?Expires=1771189210&Signature=avWHwWyT4Rkl~bmBB7RR3M0pihg2TlBOj-qQePNwCCpAdjnTdpqVDa53DSm0j89uGOc8qQguw93iHCBDVqAg-t0Pwj8~4AqHC9bAJAvJYXS6MQ0Oiab19vcMGgKDbDdHg0TENt-JrX4v8QQT1eWIe8edAJyZyfJkZQYFaWkuDHTIbdL~lvXKz8SRDPWFIk~DM29DSKMcxg-nXvYWZ48eME-Ptox1yeNJrJU0TShyEVjOLOURct5LPTBvOWh5EIDTJlyVPDbcsqPZB52jhHSH4WDOFDtAnLsRMX8T3C3tJYcPHWL0rYCGX~GWKch5WkFQ37POwZo6daKbMkJdV5qkyA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Pleasant Grove City Council adopted Ordinance 2025-005 to rezone approximately 0.2 of an acre at the entrance to Green Grama Apartments from the Grove zone (commercial-sales subdistrict) to Commercial Sales 2 (CS-2), removing a split zone on the parcel.

Director of Community Development Daniel Cardenas described the request as a “cleanup” to align zoning maps with existing property lines and an approved planning commission project. He said the larger property is already largely zoned CS-2 and that the small corner in question had been left as a different zone, resulting in the split zoning. Cardenas said the rezone would allow approved restaurant buildings and avoid future confusion for site plan review.

Cardenas explained differences between the Grove subdistrict and the CS-2 zone, saying the Grove (growth) designation carries more restrictive design review requirements and building standards, while CS-2 is less restrictive on design review and glass requirements. He said the intent is not to change the development type but to have the zoning map follow property lines.

No members of the public spoke at the hearing. Councilmember Rogers moved to adopt the ordinance; Councilmember Lamone seconded. A roll-call vote recorded all present council members voting yes and the mayor declared the ordinance adopted.

Council requested staff update them as tenant names and building details are finalized for the site; Director Cardenas said he would notify council when additional details are available.","Pleasant Grove City Council adopted an ordinance rezoning a 0.2-acre parcel near Green Grama Apartments from the Grove zone commercial-sales subdistrict to Commercial Sales 2 (CS-2) to eliminate split zoning for a Tag & Go car wash entrance and adjacent development.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6631391,"Pleasant Grove council adopts modest fee increases for Funshine Learning Center",98,674000,772000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2679901-6b26f90f3c15196af784bb3b0f5c753c&start=674&end=772","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2679901-6b26f90f3c15196af784bb3b0f5c753c/thumbnail_674000.jpg","/articles/6631391/Pleasant-Grove/Utah-County/Utah/Pleasant-Grove-council-adopts-modest-fee-increases-for-Funshine-Learning-Center","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6631391-178a4886738c458d089826f87ae73747/orig.mp4?Expires=1771189210&Signature=m9PMdrXP5JSHt4oWucHJFh1DCdXTGW05H5-aetZPHtO5i4wDSUG9NCIG6vuIshnJoH~XjBX7xn54BlkMpCXzT4YwEKP6ehpojp06edmADLbFnnD74G~Psr9yQapHkhgBvS2odYa6lmns1AeLooMSORjerrji4aTmNbuVn4dBJ8YbxnkexjiWJim~1u-RuGr2dkEsSxE4y7f-QPWrkxW4YKiK4ARNJRTRQ6He~Mw51RsMOGVV5aniT-ArEHUl6aX066yn9fF50xpO1pOjdMRJIE4k6EmcnyIHZpGkt0sANMKok~19Qmko~QZzyy51ZgSHH87DtKu0~60zeuHrZWsI1w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Pleasant Grove City Council voted unanimously to adopt a resolution adjusting fees for the Funshine Learning Center at the Pleasant Grove Recreation Center.

Council members approved the amendment as part of a consolidated fee schedule change. City staff said the increase is intended to better cover costs for supplies and staff wages while keeping the program a comparatively low-cost option in the area. Recreation staff cited comparable fees in neighboring cities to justify the change.

Program manager Sean Whitaker told the council, “The fees for Funshine just haven't gone up for quite some time.” He described the proposed increases in specific classes: three- and four-year-old classes would rise from $75 to $100; pre-K two-days-per-week from $95 to $125; and pre-K three-days-per-week from $115 to $150. Whitaker said the increases would not fully cover costs but would help “recapture a little bit more of that revenue.”

Staff said the city performed a cost-and-revenue review as part of a broader study of recreation fees, and noted the timing was driven by registration opening for next fall. No members of the public spoke at the hearing.

The motion to adopt “Resolution 2025-10, amending the fiscal year 2024–2025 budget consolidated fee schedule” was made by Council Member Williams and seconded by Council Member Janssen. A roll call recorded Council Member Anderson, Council Member Rogers, Council Member Janssen, Council Member Lamont and Council Member Williams voting yes. The mayor declared the motion passed unanimously.

Council members and staff said they expect to continue reviewing recreation fees incrementally rather than imposing larger single-year increases to ease impacts on families.","The city council unanimously approved a resolution to raise preschool fees at the Pleasant Grove Recreation Center's Funshine Learning Center to help cover rising costs for supplies and staff wages.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6631376,"Pleasant Grove staff outline budget proposals, utility rate increases and park staffing needs",518,4336000,4854000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2679901-6b26f90f3c15196af784bb3b0f5c753c&start=4336&end=4854","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2679901-6b26f90f3c15196af784bb3b0f5c753c/thumbnail_4336000.jpg","/articles/6631376/Pleasant-Grove/Utah-County/Utah/Pleasant-Grove-staff-outline-budget-proposals-utility-rate-increases-and-park-staffing-needs","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6631376-927fad6bf599c2112598a01b55f68b6b/orig.mp4?Expires=1771189210&Signature=kecOqNdfakv5OfK0K-NBExoKWDUBB9VlVYHbqvS~GSIwJ2uh6R3hNePcj4JHKegYgal9F2S4PDhCpduW3yfhUC~kksh1EcCr42tBDEFhM12lMGquPI9j~vsvelAmFIxLoTAGVYdLe0ixP0QiSpAJNNPi~yIVikehZ4bajEEaEdgijbgZe2hsWUsV8C6anrsChAf9LRuqdKqLKvREWVhj7OnrJAqmHuDFSvQsV7dQpE7bUmXUBkDIvyAVuHWOOEudN2NLD-EiV1A0-zpJT8E-YayktuKY8fClqe9XKZPIawo~lUMr3sbdElde6PXI7TCRLf~CQfr-498BTcsW3rF73A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City staff presented multiple budget items and utility-rate proposals during a work-session portion of the meeting, outlining revenue needs, operational requests and capital maintenance priorities for fiscal year 2026.

Finance Director Denise (last name not spoken on record) outlined proposed utility rate adjustments that would generate approximately $1.7 million citywide. Staff said a 3% consumer-price-index (CPI) style increase was proposed for culinary water, secondary water and storm drain rates to cover rising operational costs. The council was told that sewer rates would also increase in part because Timely Sewage & Sewer District (TSSD) has implemented substantial rate increases; staff noted TSSD implemented a large increase earlier in the year and additional multi-year increases are planned to pay for capital upgrades and stricter effluent regulations. Denise said the average household could see about a $9.28 increase per month under the proposed changes.

Staff discussed how much of the proposed additional utility revenue (about $1.2 million of the $1.7 million) would pass through to outside entities (primarily TSSD and the city's solid-waste contractor, Republic Services) and that approximately $505,000 would remain with the city for enterprise fund needs.

Parks and recreation staff requested roughly $58,000 in part-time custodial/seasonal wages and operating additions tied to Cook Family Park and the busy splash-pad season. Dion, parks staff, said the largest portion (about $32,000) covers evening and weekend custodial coverage during Memorial Day through Labor Day at Cook Family Park; other items included an added Saturday shift at the recreation center and additional seasonal weekend coverage.

Staff also described capital items under consideration, including a heated pressure washer for park cleanup, trailhead restroom grant timing (staff said grant deadlines had passed for this cycle), main-street LED lighting replacement and a proposed retaining wall to protect the asphalt edge at Manila Pond. Staff said the retaining-wall option would require excavation into virgin soil and estimated costs were discussed but not finalized; council members asked staff to explore alternatives and confirm whether insurance might cover a damaged section of the recreation center roof (staff agreed to check insurance coverage).

Council asked staff to return with additional data on two proposed procurement ideas: (1) a comparison or bid for contracting custodial services (currently largely in-house with some contracted work for this building), and (2) a review of the city's Republic Services solid-waste contract and potential rebid timing. Staff said they would attempt to provide comparative estimates and, if needed, issue formal bids to gather market numbers.

Staff requested the council provide questions in advance of the April 8 budget work session; the budget timeline anticipates a tentative budget in May and a final budget by late June.","City staff presented the FY2026 budget highlights including proposed utility rate adjustments (average household increase about $9.28/month), custodial and park staffing increases for Cook Family Park, and capital maintenance items such as a potential retaining wall at Manila Pond and recreation center roof/HVAC reserves.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6631381,"Council awards $1.22 million roadway and culinary waterline contract to Bar S Construction",1253,1882000,3135000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2679901-6b26f90f3c15196af784bb3b0f5c753c&start=1882&end=3135","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2679901-6b26f90f3c15196af784bb3b0f5c753c/thumbnail_1882000.jpg","/articles/6631381/Pleasant-Grove/Utah-County/Utah/Council-awards-122-million-roadway-and-culinary-waterline-contract-to-Bar-S-Construction","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6631381-7f4bad509711c5a9edeb4aab793b0626/orig.mp4?Expires=1771189210&Signature=NFrmOvD54vsJCeXgt655D0kQDC2hsVty8F7jVY90X2VuoFbg~lEtxF~LKvzgQEMdTadWPpdIUEMl5d1tVm-aWjCW~zsP6V~gP40pqK3N1QuRUqpI2iKL5rjmf2a~f9ECUCU7Lz~nBRb4pwBOYnbh-Vvpb7BLY1ZmGlTu-xxVCyQ8SAwWfOd-UvWgfc3nC0A~iSWMDUW1ptnOKSYKZtIhOWlML-U5e97kRyH6NyoZLNtZYq0nlBvNnFETV4yJPj38eceJvZXVLoQ61J-3hX~ucwYTszr8~7kkR6K5kE~SY3D4dRA4dn7opZYhyKEaoXxLJeWNB4Y9XD-HkkhVmfmXvA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Pleasant Grove City Council approved a notice of award for the 1520 West 1100 North to 1800 North roadway reconstruction and culinary waterline project, accepting the low base bid from Bar S Construction Company, LLC.

The scope includes a full roadway section replacement and a new water main along the corridor. Public Works noted Bar S had performed prior utility work in the city as a subcontractor and had provided reliable service during an August flooding response.
