Cottonwood Heights council postpones rezoning request, approves three resolutions and consent minutes
Summary
At its Aug. 5 business meeting, the Cottonwood Heights City Council voted to postpone three related rezoning items to Aug. 19, declared certain city property surplus and confirmed two committee appointments; the council also approved its July 15 meeting minutes.
The Cottonwood Heights City Council on Tuesday postponed a decision on three related rezoning items tied to a request for 0.95 Acre Realty at 3526 East Fort Union Boulevard and approved three resolutions and the consent calendar.
The council voted to delay consideration of agenda items 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 — an amendment request for 0.95 Acre Realty to reclassify property at 3526 East Fort Union Boulevard from residential office to residential medium density — until the council's Aug. 19 business meeting. The motion to postpone passed by voice vote; no individual vote tally for that motion was recorded in the meeting transcript.
Why it matters: postponing the zoning and land-use amendments gives city staff and the applicant more time to address outstanding questions raised in the council’s work session and permits additional public review before the council takes a final vote.
