Staff reported no net increase in overall density as a result of the changes and recommended approval subject to findings and conditions.

Staff said the decision to remove the through-street was intended to separate nightly-rental traffic from other neighborhood traffic and that some unit footprints had to expand to meet plate-height and stair requirements for the nightly-rental product. The Land Use Authority heard no public opposition and approved both amended preliminary plats by unanimous vote.

Staff told the authority the amendments do not change lot lines outside the backyard area, conform to the project’s Planned Community Development (PCD) zoning, and remain in compliance with the city subdivision ordinance. The authority heard no public comment on the three consecutive agenda items and voted unanimously to approve each amended final plat with the findings and conditions listed in the staff reports.

Approvals apply to Phase 1 (Palm Island Drive / Mansour Lane), Phase 2 (Palm Island Drive / Mansour Lane) and Phase 3 (Palm Island Drive, Del Sol Lane and Elkins Cove West). The items were presented together; staff said the change is administrative in effect for lot ownership rights and is intended to enable homeowners to place permitted backyard structures on their individual parcels rather than in a shared limited-common area.

All three motions passed with unanimous votes from the Land Use Authority members present.","The Land Use Authority approved amended final plats for Phases 1–3 of The Islands at Coral Canyon to convert limited-common backyard areas to private ownership, allowing homeowners to build backyard structures such as pools and covered patios.",{"_33":98,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":99,"_41":100,"_43":101,"_45":102,"_47":103,"_49":104,"_51":105,"_53":106,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":107,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":108,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6598380,"Planning commission recommends approval of Crimson Cliffs rezoning to R‑1‑8",445,5621000,6066000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3041669-cb974bbcfeaab35c8926e7c5a58201c4&start=5621&end=6066","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3041669-cb974bbcfeaab35c8926e7c5a58201c4/thumbnail_5621000.jpg","/articles/6598380/Washington-City/Washington-County/Utah/Planning-commission-recommends-approval-of-Crimson-Cliffs-rezoning-to-R18","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6598380-d943cf4977611cdbcaf480c63cdc7504/orig.mp4?Expires=1771149423&Signature=G2b9Gm7xE6vGJrsoLOn9RAqd9wkpzxk-Ti7vFnFLUo~aBWzepHLvwTogOQz44MYu~QrrDYmv~Fy6KY8wsLa1BI5GTVPGcqYzlMjjgIswf3~6Sa-xRfTmc5VLf585jyuSnoSDmwYPl8JOLSsAvcwBG06Wip1Bits~1DU8IODEPylF4bIp2Edf6XPxNW1VUio-HwBlOoXKhEXtrItRUBd6SQdmNjyENkHK3eMwQFwVfIkMSO1aCIzsDZgiHjKWgOBG1QqXgDMNch4onhdKufBEOhytVZcT8t0PODYvD6OpBaLtSK4C5fFUSJY7ldMtfnXMhHAHzWDgkiNNB79ELiFw~g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Washington City Planning Commission on April 16 recommended that City Council approve Z‑25‑07, a request to rezone roughly 19.13 acres at Crimson Cliffs Way and 4200 South from R‑1‑10 to R‑1‑8. Staff said the city’s general plan land-use designation for the parcel had been updated to medium density (4.5–6 units per acre) on Feb. 26, 2025, and that the requested R‑1‑8 zoning is consistent with that designation.

During the brief public hearing a nearby resident asked whether the new development would include a wall and whether traffic noise would be reflected back toward existing homes. City engineer Adam Allen said the plan includes a 10-foot landscaped buffer with a wall between the new lots and 4200 South; vehicular access would come from internal subdivision streets rather than directly from 4200 South. No other public commenters spoke on the item.

Commissioner Scheel moved to recommend approval and Commissioner Anderson seconded. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to forward the recommendation to City Council: Commissioners Mitchell, Anderson, Scheel and Bullock voted aye.

The item will appear on a future City Council agenda with a positive recommendation from the Planning Commission.","The commission recommended approval of Z‑25‑07, rezoning about 19.13 acres at Crimson Cliffs Way and 4200 South from R‑1‑10 to R‑1‑8; staff said the general plan designation was updated to medium density and the proposal conforms to the plan.",{"_33":110,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":111,"_41":112,"_43":113,"_45":114,"_47":115,"_49":116,"_51":117,"_53":118,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":119,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":120,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6598386,"Planning commission tables rezoning request for Nelson Ranch property after lengthy public hearing",3066,322000,3388000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3041669-cb974bbcfeaab35c8926e7c5a58201c4&start=322&end=3388","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3041669-cb974bbcfeaab35c8926e7c5a58201c4/thumbnail_322000.jpg","/articles/6598386/Washington-City/Washington-County/Utah/Planning-commission-tables-rezoning-request-for-Nelson-Ranch-property-after-lengthy-public-hearing","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6598386-df75ad89b89bb0c675dfd8882f943f01/orig.mp4?Expires=1771149423&Signature=mIcqMQDZiCn56~Os7mci7zohY8Hn5gkiJTY94OOq5WG9TutmbfEtwOwRkHbWQQC~ywdd5jcWEThtqs0Nq~8OKG74Do~uKvhYJ~BiR1HhTsEyd0NYA8OJ3uCpET23LmeBnW9ECHipmoHf99JPgJUNlwUq2Turn8HRyVA8htZGNuBaqMeDNDqzCVZcOLMQk9t~FlZuc-yJotXGjKbx-SMl~dfOvDgDq~baTGYt2rkjaz9HvWc6Xnq7mTAzfnmDY0~aJ-uaXouSmdeZYZXKPuKrdsKndaR4OkVERk93OVTbaBXbrZLplOvJNklDVjJvqXs0513s1GO~QjEUkGaHEv7NIg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Washington City Planning Commission on April 16 voted to table Z-25-08, a request to rezone about 35.42 acres near Heritage Fields Drive and Nelson Ranch Road from A-20 (agricultural) to an Open Space and Planned Unit Development-Residential (PUDR) designation, so the applicant can respond to concerns raised by residents and commissioners. The commission set the continuance for May 7, 2025.

Staff and the applicant described the proposal as a single-family subdivision with 91 lots on the 35.42-acre site, of which 23.99 acres would be developable and 11.43 acres retained as open space. Staff noted the overall density calculates to about 2.57 units per acre across the full parcel and 3.79 units per acre on the developable acreage. The plan called for a 10-foot master-plan asphalt trail to be dedicated to the city, roughly 41,800 square feet of amenities (a pavilion and two pickleball courts among the items listed), and typical PUDR setbacks including a 20-foot garage setback and 5-foot side yards.

The public hearing drew a long line of residents. Many speakers opposed the smaller lots, the proposed setbacks and the location of the project adjacent to the Virgin River floodplain and an identified erosion-hazard area. Retired fire official Mel Milgram told commissioners the development “is a firestorm waiting,” citing brush along the river and the proposed lot pattern. Resident Jason Smith cited the PUDR code’s requirement that proposed units be \"similar in scale\" to adjoining parcels and said many proposed lots are well under the average size of neighboring subdivisions. Other speakers raised traffic safety, school access, loss of cottonwood habitat and concerns about future flood insurance availability for lots near the river.

Eldon (city staff) presented the staff report and answered technical questions about the floodplain, erosion-hazard line and utility connections. Adam Allen of American Consulting and Engineering explained that a blue line on the plan showed the 100-year floodplain and a red line identified an erosion-hazard band; he said an armoring study and protective structures would be required where lots fall within the erosion zone. Applicant Dave Nasal said the proposal sought some smaller lots in internal locations while buffering edges to be compatible with surrounding neighborhoods, that a 40-foot riprap/fire buffer would be provided along the river, and that the PUDR option is intended to provide more flexibility to deliver housing at lower price points.

Several commissioners pressed the applicant on access and side-yard setbacks. Commissioner Anderson, who made the motion to table, said access was his “biggest heartburn” and asked the applicant to explore an additional access point closer to 20 East and larger side-yard setbacks (for example 5 feet on one side and 10 feet on the other) to reduce the project’s perceived impact. Commissioner Mitchell said she favored development patterns that more closely matched existing adjacent R-1-10 zoning and expressed concern about inserting smaller lots behind established homes. The commission voted 4–0 to table the matter to May 7, 2025. Commissioners Anderson and Mitchell made the motion and second; Commissioners Anderson, Schill, Mitchell and Volk voted aye.

The tabling preserves the public record (staff said written comments already on file would carry forward) and keeps the public hearing option open for the May 7 meeting. Staff and the applicant were directed to return with revised materials that address access, setbacks and other technical clarifications requested by commissioners.
