Zambella told commissioners the project is an owner‑builder addition that will add one bedroom, one bathroom and a laundry room to an existing small dwelling. The addition fills in part of an existing covered porch; the applicant said the new total heated area would be about 1,400 square feet (a net gain of roughly 320 square feet from the existing footprint).

Commission review focused on whether the alteration would increase a preexisting nonconformity. Planning Commission member Jane reviewed the town code provision allowing maintenance, repair, alteration and enlargement of noncompliant structures so long as the work does not increase nonconformity or create a new nonconformity. Commissioners agreed the addition meets setback requirements and does not expand the nonconforming aspects of the structure.

Commissioners also discussed construction administration: as an owner‑builder, Zambella is responsible for scheduling inspections with the town’s building inspector (Zach Martin) and for the cost of any extra inspections beyond standard checks. Tim confirmed that demolition or removal of the small covered porch would be part of the building‑permit envelope and that necessary demolition permissions should be included with the building permit.

A motion to approve the application noted that the applicant had been advised of inspection responsibilities and potential additional inspection fees and found the project in compliance with the land‑use code and the Rockville General Plan. The motion passed on a roll‑call vote recorded as: Andy, Tim, Linda, Ken and Jane voting aye.

The applicant was told to coordinate required inspections with the town building inspector during construction and to secure any demolition permits if portions of the porch will be removed.","The Planning Commission approved a roughly 600‑square‑foot addition to a preexisting house at 87 West DeMille Road.

Commissioners voted after extended discussion and public comment about the history and legal status of several South Mesa parcels, boundary‑line adjustments, and whether the lots meet current zoning and septic‑density rules. The applicants said they obtained health‑department approvals from the Southwest Utah Public Health Department for the septic systems; the excavation/grading permit before the commission was submitted retroactively to document work already done.

Applicant Logan Hebner told the commission the excavation work was carried out after discussions with town staff and the Southwest Health Department and that the work included moving dirt that was largely replaced on site. Hebner said the project involved three parcels in the original 40‑acre subdivision and that each parcel will have its own septic system.

Several public commenters raised objections about lot history and legal status. One resident (identified in the record as Titan) pointed to town rules that prohibit public comment on an agenda item during the meeting and argued the lots were illegally subdivided in 1989 and that boundary adjustments had made them nonconforming. Other residents and applicants disputed that characterization and said the lots have differing histories and that prior approvals and local practice created a precedent for approvals on these lots.

Planning commissioners and staff clarified that the commission’s role at the hearing was to consider the excavation/grading permit and septic approvals; building permits and questions about buildability under the land‑use code are separate and would be handled later if and when a building permit is filed. Commissioners noted the Southwest Utah Public Health Department had issued septic approvals prior to Rockville’s septic density study adoption and reminded applicants that approval of a septic system does not automatically confer buildability for a dwelling.

Motion language read into the record described two septic systems, one on parcel R‑1305‑A‑5‑2‑B and another on parcel R‑1305‑A‑5‑3‑B, and stated the application complies with Chapter 5 of the Rockville Land Use Code and the Rockville General Plan. The commission approved the application on a roll‑call vote (Jane, Ken, Linda, Tim and Andy recorded as voting aye). The motion record shows five ayes and no nays; at least one commissioner who participated earlier was not recorded on that roll call.

The commission’s written approval includes a notification that applicants were informed of potential issues they could face when applying for building permits and that any future building permit must demonstrate compliance with applicable zoning, lot‑line and septic density requirements.","The Rockville Planning Commission approved two retroactive excavation/grading permits to allow septic systems on adjoining parcels near 820 Eagle Crags, while members and public commenters questioned the underlying lot boundaries and buildability of parcels on the South Mesa.",{"_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},6481996,"Planning Commission approves special-event permit for Mandira Vineyard wine event",548,350000,898000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5583761-b7a6736a61dc0c5353d30225c0993d09&start=350&end=898","/articles/6481996/Utah/Planning-Commission-approves-special-event-permit-for-Mandira-Vineyard-wine-event","The Rockville Planning Commission approved a special-event permit on Aug. 12 for a ticketed educational wine event at Mandira Vineyard, 450 West Vineyard Lane, scheduled for Aug. 30.

The permit, submitted by Allison Jones for the Utah Wine Festival event at Mandira Vineyard, allows a one-day gathering from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. with a capped ticketed attendance of 70. Commissioners required that porta‑potties be provided, that signage for parking and no‑smoking be posted, and that organizers communicate speed‑limit and fire‑danger guidance to attendees.

The commission’s action followed a presentation from the applicant and a brief question-and-answer session about attendance, address disclosure on ticketing, restroom and trash planning, alcohol service permits and event signage. Allison Jones told the commission the event is “a small ticketed educational gathering… focusing on Utah grown grapes, sustainable farming, the art of winemaking,” and said parking would be managed and noise kept minimal.

Commissioner Jane asked whether the event address is published on ticketing pages; Jones said the vineyard name appears but the exact street address is not printed. Commissioners also confirmed that a DABS (Division of Alcoholic Beverage Services) permit and proof of any required server licensing would be provided before the town’s consent form is issued. Jones said Iron Gate Winery would provide licensed staff and the winery carries insurance; she also confirmed two portable toilets would be delivered and that the application would be corrected to show that.

Commissioners requested that any temporary directional signage placed on public roads be removed promptly after the event and asked organizers to notify ticket purchasers of local speed limits. Lainie emphasized attendee safety on narrow lanes and asked organizers to remind ticket holders to obey speed limits.

Motion language read into the record stated the application complies with Chapter 9, Section 1.25 (special event regulations) and the Rockville General Plan; it notes the applicant was made aware of extreme fire danger, agrees to provide no‑smoking signage, and will include language about lower speed limits on Bridge and Grafton Roads. The motion passed on a roll‑call vote: Andy, Tim, Linda, Ken and Jane each voted aye (recorded roll call shows six ayes total). Allison Jones received the signed local consent form after approval so she can submit the DABS paperwork.

The commission’s approval is limited to the special‑event permit elements presented; organizers must submit any required state alcohol permits and insurance certificates to town staff before the event.","Rockville Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve a one-day special-event permit for a ticketed educational wine event at Mandira Vineyard on Aug. 30, with limits on attendance, porta‑potties and signage requirements to address fire risk and traffic.","actionData","errors"]
