Commission staff and consultants said the review focused on cleaning up language, removing outdated references (for example to wilderness study areas), and aligning the plan with recent state requirements. BioWest and PLIPCO gathered maps and documents to support edits and to address a small number of items the state identified as missing or incomplete in the county’s current plan.

Commissioners and staff described the meeting as productive and said the consultants identified state-mandated items that needed to be added or clarified. The group discussed adjusting some state wording to better fit county circumstances and flagged several “hot topics” for the general plan update. Nicole Nelson of PLIPCO and two BioWest employees were noted as participating in the meeting. Staff will continue working with the consultants to finalize the updated general plan language and documentation before bringing revisions back to the commission for further review.","mediaType","Audio","parentTitle","Emery County Planning and Zoning - 4-April 2025 Planning Commission Audio","oneSentenceSummary","County staff, BioWest and PLIPCO met with the planning commission to review the county general plan.

Applicant Ryan Shirtliff told the commission he and partners cleaned up historic debris on the property and removed more than 50 tons of material. He said the parcel—about 0.94 acres for the county portion plus a 0.38-acre section—has access to culinary water, power and a main sewer line running nearby, and that he wants to establish a small number of RV sites with hookups. County staff informed the commission the applicant filed a business-license application and the required conditional-use paperwork after neighbors raised concerns about activity without permits; the applicant subsequently submitted the materials.

Commissioners discussed the size and access of the site, turnaround requirements for emergency equipment, and whether the approval should be limited to three hookups. A commissioner moved to approve the site as an RV park without imposing a strict upper limit; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote. Commissioners recorded their thanks to the applicant for cleaning the property and discussed preserving the old slaughterhouse structure as storage and for a proposed mural.

The county recorded the approval as a conditional use for an RV park; staff will follow up on any required permits, business licensing and recording of necessary conditions.","The Emery County Planning Commission unanimously approved a conditional use permit allowing an applicant to operate an RV park on county land adjacent to a creek, with commission language broadening the approval beyond a strict three-site limit.",{"_33":86,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":87,"_41":88,"_43":89,"_45":90,"_47":91,"_49":50,"_51":92,"_53":-5,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":93,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":94,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":71,"_72":73,"_74":73},6608386,"Commission approves Allred Acres minor subdivision; owner cleared to record county lots",474,876000,1350000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2939525-209109a398e8f6c61f2c87332d033dbb&start=876&end=1350","/articles/6608386/Utah/Commission-approves-Allred-Acres-minor-subdivision-owner-cleared-to-record-county-lots","The Emery County Planning Commission approved a minor subdivision for a roughly 19-acre parcel known in discussion as “Allred Acres,” clearing the owner to record multiple county building lots.

The applicant told commissioners the parcel totals about 19 acres before removing a road, and presented a conceptual layout that includes several two-acre lots and a larger retained parcel. The applicant said he obtained a perk test from the local health department (James Urkelau) and received letters from the road department (Justin) and utilities (Jacob Sharp) indicating access and water availability. The applicant also said power and a water line run along the property and that a previous house and utility hookups existed on the site.

Commissioners discussed driveway and turnaround standards, emergency access and county ordinance requirements for driveways longer than 200 feet. Staff confirmed the proposed layout meets the county’s minor-subdivision checklist and county standards for lot frontage and setbacks. After discussion a motion to approve the minor subdivision passed by voice vote.

Planning staff said they will notify the recorder’s office and record the approved plat; the applicant was advised that annexation into Orangeville would change county requirements should the owner pursue city subdivision rules later. Commissioners recommended the applicant consider adjacent parcels (Stilson property) in future planning if annexation or additional lots are desired.","After a presentation on utilities, access and septic testing, Emery County commissioners approved a minor subdivision application for roughly 19 acres known as Allred Acres, allowing four two-acre county lots to be recorded.",{"_33":96,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":97,"_41":98,"_43":99,"_45":100,"_47":101,"_49":50,"_51":102,"_53":-5,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":103,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":104,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":71,"_72":73,"_74":73},6608391,"Emery County planning commission tables JNR minor subdivision after survey and plat errors",35,190000,225000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2939525-209109a398e8f6c61f2c87332d033dbb&start=190&end=225","/articles/6608391/Utah/Emery-County-planning-commission-tables-JNR-minor-subdivision-after-survey-and-plat-errors","The Emery County Planning Commission on April ___ tabled a proposed minor subdivision for a parcel associated with Jason Fawcett after county staff said the submitted survey and plat contained errors that left acreage and utility easements unclear.

Commission Chair Gary Arrington said the application paperwork was turned into the county office but was not correct; staff and the applicant need to fix the survey and plat before the commission can act. Zoning Administrator Jim Jennings described problems that included incorrect acreage and apparent overlap with Utah Power & Light property and possible Orangeville City boundary ambiguities.

The item was listed on the agenda as “JNR Minor Subdivision.” County staff and commissioners reviewed a map showing the parcel at the end of South Main Street in Orangeville, near property owned by Randall Stilson. Commissioners discussed whether portions of the strip are inside city limits, where sewer tie-in points would be, and whether annexation into Orangeville would change lot yield or utility access. Commissioners and staff said the plat must resolve whether parts of the parcel are on Utah Power & Light property and whether city annexation status affects frontage and access.

With the applicant absent, a motion to table the application until the corrected survey and plat are submitted passed; a commissioner named Bill Dallas was recorded as the second on the motion. The commission instructed staff to notify the applicant and proceed when the corrected documents are filed with the recorder’s office.

The matter will return to a future commission meeting after the applicant delivers a corrected plat and any required surveys or utility easement clarifications.","The Emery County Planning Commission voted to table a minor subdivision application for a parcel in Orangeville after county staff reported errors in the submitted survey and plat that left acreage and property lines unclear.","actionData","errors"]
