Weber County approves rezoning and development agreement for 2139 S. 43100 W., clearing way for limited commercial use
Summary
The commission approved Ordinance 2025-01 to rezone 0.92 acres at 2139 South 43100 West from A-1 to C-2 with a development agreement that narrows allowed commercial uses, requires right-of-way dedication, and addresses access and underground utilities.
The Weber County Commission approved an ordinance and development agreement to rezone a 0.92-acre parcel at approximately 2139 South 43100 West from A-1 to C-2, a change the county planning staff and the Western Weber Planning Commission recommended.
Felix Alvarino, a county planning staff member, told commissioners the request was applicant driven by the landowner, Josh Skidmore, who was present. Alvarino said the rezoning is consistent with the county general plan's mixed-use commercial designation for the area and that the development agreement narrows C-2's broad list of commercial uses to those appropriate for the site's size and parking constraints.
Alvarino outlined several conditions included in the development agreement: dedication of additional right of way to create an 80-foot 43100 West cross section; street-facing improvements such as a 10-foot sidewalk, angled parking and plantings; a requirement to evaluate and modify access at design review to avoid conflicts with the nearby high school's drop-off area; and a requirement that some existing overhead power and communications lines be placed underground or deferred under an agreement at the time of design review.
Alvarino said the Western Weber Planning Commission forwarded a unanimous positive recommendation to the county commission. After a public hearing with no public comments, the commission approved Ordinance 2025-01 by roll call. The transcript records roll-call prompts and affirmative votes: "Commissioner Ford? Aye. Commissioner Harvey? Aye. Chair Bolas? Aye." The ordinance and development agreement will govern future design review and any site improvements.
Staff said the rezoning anticipates potential cross-access with the property to the south (a church) so that, if that parcel's use changes in the future, the site can meet the commercial zone's two-entry requirement through cross-access rather than a second driveway on 43100 West.
