Planning staff recapped the site's history: the business has operated on the property since the 1940s, and the corridor's zoning has changed over time. Staff said the requested M1 designation would allow ProSteel to expand its office and showroom space adjacent to existing manufacturing use without intensifying industrial operations.

Nicole Anderson, representing the applicant, described the proposed building as a new office/showroom with a main-floor showroom and a second floor containing offices. \"ProSteel has been in Provo for almost 50 or a little over 50 years now...they add a lot of value to Provo City,\" Anderson said. Greg Clements of the ProSteel team said the existing manufacturing facility has sufficient capacity for current and near-term production needs and the office addition would not substantially increase manufacturing intensity.

Public comment included a district resident who said the bus-stop and bus yard in the area currently look out of place next to residences and that the expanded office might appear visually different from the adjacent housing. Commissioners discussed the site's history, noted the expansion would improve the State Street frontage with landscaping and required frontage improvements, and concluded the office expansion is compatible with the long-standing manufacturing use.

Action: The commission approved the concept plan and recommended the municipal council rezone the property to M1; both votes were unanimous. Staff noted the applicant will work with UDOT on required frontage improvements along State Street and must meet current landscaping and frontage standards when developing the site.

Next steps: The rezoning will be forwarded to the municipal council for final action. If the council approves the rezone, the applicant will proceed with architectural drawings, final site plans, and building permits.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Provo City Planning Commission Administrative Hearing | July 9, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Provo's planning commission approved a concept plan and unanimously recommended rezoning a parcel at 1400 South State Street from R1-10 to M1 to allow an office/showroom expansion for ProSteel, a long-standing local manufacturer.","taxTitle","Provo City Council, Provo, Utah County, Utah","taxId",67770,"location","Utah","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":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6550931,"Commission recommends approval of CR rezone and concept plan for 5-unit project near BYU",837,2158000,2995000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5369761-48d834530c021ab9cfd80b58ffa316b6&start=2158&end=2995","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5369761-48d834530c021ab9cfd80b58ffa316b6/thumbnail_2158000.jpg","/articles/6550931/Utah/Commission-recommends-approval-of-CR-rezone-and-concept-plan-for-5-unit-project-near-BYU","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6550931-21a265c8b99e28a9bc10ed81197dcb06/orig.mp4?Expires=1770958716&Signature=JcHqsIr6WBM26sYdnlMw2X29gGNbc~07lg6fDoel7T~e~0vmIL~nfhX71--nB-SXE9cKMS2df5uHLpPWu0gmCp-y4XBJ0nqsMllRgP0DPb3NUgOqtB32MWNzfFw6HQd2zx~g9w1punEm758het51jycpebZT1-uOrC8nG4yayirGAzTqQN3JhNpmXoYrm3V62GSS1AdwEVCwxQ4bTY7w4AK~UJCv5Q8ZXwJ6zzuxUxSFmovZMgFbRMHq1WaaWjN319r3D9EmRgmADuYZbct4sMEl2KhFua46e0OFe48oNyH5Jz-7QPQz7d54wlKWjDE~3Zrw3AQbBL9m5KL5egimzQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Provo City Planning Commission voted July 9 to approve a concept plan and forward a positive recommendation to the municipal council for a rezone from Residential Conservation (RC) to Campus Residential (CR) for a 5-unit apartment building at 71 West 880 North in the North Park neighborhood.

Staff said the property is currently a single-family lot surrounded by multifamily housing; the applicant reduced the original concept from eight units to five to meet CR zone requirements. The concept shows a two-story structure with parking tucked underneath and landscaping around the site. The proposed unit mix is three one-bedroom units and two two-bedroom units.

Applicant Terry Cyrek (recorded on the agenda as the applicant) told commissioners he owns the adjacent cottages and manages the properties on-site. \"We're surrounded by apartment complexes on all sides, and the...we anticipate this to either be medical students or BYU students,\" Cyrek said.

Beth Hettinggren, the District 4 neighborhood chair, told the commission the applicant had presented to the neighborhood and the district supports the plan. \"There is a great demand for updated student housing in that area,\" Hettinggren said in the meeting's neighborhood report.

Planning staff explained the RC zone does not permit new units and the requested CR zone is consistent with the property's residential general-plan designation and the character of surrounding properties. Commissioners asked about parking and occupancy limits; staff noted family occupancy rules and that the project meets parking-code requirements for the CR zone.

Action and conditions: The commission approved the concept plan for item 2 and forwarded a positive recommendation for the zone map amendment (item 3) to the municipal council; both votes were unanimous. The motion on the concept plan included the condition that municipal council approval of the CR rezone is required for final approval of the project.

Next steps: The rezone will go to the municipal council for final action; if approved, the applicant will return with final plans and building permits.","The planning commission unanimously recommended a zone change from RC to CR and approved a concept plan for a five-unit apartment at 71 West 880 North, after the applicant reduced the proposal from eight to five units to meet CR standards.",{"_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":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6550936,"Planning commission approves 206-unit Geneva Road residential project with parking, traffic conditions",1849,308000,2157000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5369761-48d834530c021ab9cfd80b58ffa316b6&start=308&end=2157","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5369761-48d834530c021ab9cfd80b58ffa316b6/thumbnail_308000.jpg","/articles/6550936/Utah/Planning-commission-approves-206-unit-Geneva-Road-residential-project-with-parking-traffic-conditions","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6550936-37a8b3e52ec2f5f24c47cbc1c33aa024/orig.mp4?Expires=1770958716&Signature=it~TeNOD4keem44fCKX7LbnBmabl0lcHAAo6MSTTgUmgRhAkQuAhff-7blYzL6ukAYg35q0bzuVXHxEfH1TEOaS8sOIrJaUboNwHUDEmpM1Hci5-Y4gTVP1ktbN0ev7t74R7xoV9oL6buL1dR4ljf8dknXRxO2ehlqJ701-xoFQldkG4NMR4NJzUYrwlSQW8UV3fNOQjg7T3586SbIEol1ubwDUaKo~b9sVHVrYYiR9EXJWh-kRIrsTfdb4-XIyGfejsT8aK0LXv-KewDMWV4-lD1UtuHrIs2jeegLGToFTp2Kvbv20qpzQODhcskC3xY9vt7EnPJiQOJuWVhUJ~Bg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Provo City Planning Commission unanimously approved a project plan July 9 for a 206-unit residential development at 88 North Geneva Road, a site in the Fort Utah neighborhood that is zoned Medium Density Residential (MDR).

The project, proposed by Wasatch Residential Group and described in the presentation as 18 townhomes and 188 apartments, received approval conditioned on a final plat being recorded and remaining CRC comments being addressed and approved, city staff said.

Staff presented the site plan and associated studies, saying the development provides 411 parking stalls — slightly above the code requirement of 407 — and shows landscaping buffers required where multifamily backs up to residential lots. \"Our city engineers have reviewed the traffic study for this project, and have found that it's able to maintain an acceptable level of service,\" Dustin Wright, Provo City staff, told commissioners.

Why this matters: the site sits at Center Street and Geneva Road, two UDOT-controlled arterial streets. Public Works estimated trip generation from the project at roughly 2,300 vehicle trips per day, with peak flows of about four vehicles per minute. Staff and Public Works said that projected traffic is well within the roadway's capacity and that any required roadway work or access controls (for example, a center-turn median or widening) would be handled through UDOT and development review.

Neighbors who spoke during public comment voiced concern about spillover parking into adjacent, older single-family streets. \"The reality that we've seen...is that young professionals and students tend to come live there, and they all have a car per room,\" said Tanner Welton, Provo resident. His wife, Brooke Walton, added that recommended parking ratios in similar developments have not prevented spillover in surrounding cities and that visitor parking often exacerbates the problem.

Staff and the applicant said the project does not request a parking reduction and that projects owned and managed by a single entity tend to have fewer over-occupancy enforcement problems. \"What we have found in projects like this that are owned by one entity and are managed by one entity, we tend not to have the over-occupancy problems that cause the parking problems that the people are most concerned about,\" a city staff member said. Staff noted the city can respond with on-street parking regulations if spillover occurs.

Applicant Jeff Murdock, representing Wasatch Residential Group, said the company intends to be a long-term owner and manager and described amenities planned for the development, including a pool, clubhouse, fitness center, pickleball court, dog park and bike parking. \"We invest our own money into these projects, and we plan on owning it forever,\" Murdock said.

Commission discussion noted that the development is below the maximum height and density permitted on the site and that the parking ratio meets city code. Commissioners raised bike and pedestrian connectivity as a desirable enhancement to reduce vehicle trips and encouraged links to nearby trails.

Formal action: A motion to approve the project plan with the conditions that the final plat be approved and remaining CRC comments be addressed passed unanimously. The commission record states the outcome as approved.

Details and next steps: the applicant will record a final plat, resolve outstanding CRC comments, and pursue building permits. Staff said the S C 1 (commercial) portion of the site is not part of this review and would be presented later for separate development review.

Votes at a glance: Motion — approve project plan with conditions (final plat and CRC approval). Outcome — approved (unanimous).","Provo City Planning Commission unanimously approved a project plan for a 206-unit residential development at 88 North Geneva Road with conditions including a final plat and outstanding CRC comments addressed. Staff and Public Works said traffic and parking meet city standards; nearby residents raised parking overflow concerns.","actionData","errors"]
