The recommendation would change the future land use designation from single‑family residential to multifamily residential and rezone the parcel currently zoned R E 20. Staff told the commission that the commission’s recent amendment would allow an R‑4 designation (18 units per acre) and, if that amendment does not clear council, the Station South (SS) zone would apply.

Taylor Anderson, the applicant and a representative of Cole West, described the proposal as an R‑4 project and said the concept calls for 62 units on roughly 3.82 acres. Anderson said the units would be three‑story townhomes about 1,400–1,500 square feet and that the applicant’s “goal is to keep them under $400,000.”

Neighbors spoke during the public hearing. Kevin Duplessie, who lives west of the site, said he moved to Roy because he could “buy a house with a yard” and said he preferred single‑family homes for that parcel. Another member of the public, Kevin Homer, said he was not an adjacent neighbor but supported the proposal, calling the site a logical fit given the tight parcel size.

Staff presentation noted the parcel borders the railroad, that Sunset has nearby townhome and multifamily development, and that under the current map the site is single‑family and zoned R E 20. The staff report recommended approval of the future land use map change and rezoning to R‑4 (as amended) or, if the amendment is not approved, to the Station South zone. Staff also said detailed issues such as access and fire department requirements would be addressed during the site‑plan review stage.

Commission discussion emphasized housing diversity and housing affordability as reasons the commission could not limit the city to single‑family lot patterns. A motion was made to recommend the general plan change; roll call recorded seven affirmative votes (Bailey, Hobert, Collins, Cowley, Brand, Bills, Tanner). A separate motion to recommend rezoning to R‑4 as amended likewise passed 7‑0.

The commission’s recommendation will be transmitted to City Council for final decision; no council action was taken at the May 13 meeting.

Both the site plan and the architectural motion passed with a single dissent from Commissioner Tanner.

Taylor Anderson of Cole West, the project applicant, reviewed revisions to the site plan prompted by staff comments, saying the plan was updated to shift two parking stalls to a more central location, add visitor stalls and provide bicycle parking. Anderson summarized the project as 17 three‑story townhomes with two‑car garages and said of parking, “From my understanding with the code, we need, 2 unit 2 parking stalls per unit, which I think, already is in that just by having a 2 car garage.”

Staff told the commission the project is in the Station South zone and meets the zone’s allowances for up to 18 units per acre. Staff recommended approval of site plan and architecture subject to the conditions listed in the staff report and noted outstanding technical comments remain from the building and fire departments.

Commissioner Tanner opposed both approvals and gave a detailed explanation of his concerns, focusing on parking and on‑street impacts. Tanner argued that residents often do not use garages for vehicle parking, that many households have multiple vehicles or recreational equipment, and that this design would push parking demand onto city streets and nearby UTA parking. He said, “I can't just sit back and say, oh, let's just keep doing it and make it somebody else's problem,” and registered a formal “nay” on both votes.

A roll call on the site‑plan motion recorded one no (Tanner) and six ayes; the architectural approval vote recorded the same tally. The commission instructed staff to continue coordinating outstanding reviews with building and fire departments before final permits are issued.

The item was a discussion for affected entities; the commission took no vote.

Staff explained that an amendment to the annexation policy plan does not itself annex land but signals the city would entertain annexation applications for the highlighted area. The city will accept written comments from affected entities for 10 days following the meeting; the planning commission will then review comments and can schedule a public hearing.

Barton Briarly, Ogden City planning director, told the commission that the area is within Ogden City’s annexation area, noted that Ogden has extended sewer and water to serve the site and that a project to rebuild the 24th Street/I‑15 interchange will provide direct freeway access. Briarly said, “this is in Ogden City’s annexation area, and we would welcome an application to annex this area.”

Commissioners discussed practical issues including high groundwater in the low bluff area, jurisdictional boundaries with West Haven and Ogden, utility service providers and that property owners ultimately must initiate annexation petitions. Staff reiterated that affected entities (for example, water and fire districts) may submit comments within the 10‑day window and that the commission would consider those comments at a later meeting; a public hearing would follow before any formal recommendation.

No action was taken; the item will return for further review after the comment period and prior to any public hearing.
