The Utah County Commission convened on August 16, 2023, to address several agenda items, with a focus on item number 30 regarding a greenbelt application and associated abatement processes.
The meeting began with a discussion on whether to strike a sub-item from item number 30. Commission members deliberated on the best approach to handle the application, ultimately deciding to keep the item as is while allowing for the possibility of a new application in the future. It was clarified that the existing abatement application could be revisited once a greenbelt determination is made. This determination will not require a formal meeting but will be communicated through notice, enabling the commission to bring back the abatement application in the same meeting if the property is confirmed to be in greenbelt.
After confirming no further changes were needed for item 30, the commission moved to approve it as presented. A motion was made and seconded, resulting in a unanimous vote of 3-0 in favor of the approval.
As the meeting progressed, the commission addressed the need for public comments. There was a brief discussion about whether public comment had been adequately facilitated, with a request for any online comments to be reviewed. However, the meeting concluded shortly thereafter, with a motion to adjourn.
Overall, the meeting effectively addressed the key agenda items, particularly the greenbelt application process, and concluded with a clear path forward for future discussions and applications.
