Council reviews multiple rezoning and subdivision proposals; staff to present details at evening hearings
Summary
Planning staff summarized three small-scale land-use items Sept. 23: a Center Street rezone for a four-lot infill subdivision (2858 W Center), a two-lot split requiring an R-17 rezone at 920 S/1020 W, and a Bannock Drive ADU map request. Staff said those items will appear on the council's evening agenda for public hearing and v
Planning staff briefed the council on multiple small land‑use items Sept. 23 that were scheduled for public hearing on the evening agenda.
2858 West Center Street (Fort Utah neighborhood): Planning supervisor Aaron Ardmore said the applicant seeks an R‑1‑7 zoning classification to subdivide an existing parcel into three new homes while retaining one existing home. Ardmore said the proposed lots would take access from a side street (rather than Center Street) and that planning staff and the planning commission recommended approval (planning commission vote 6–1). Staff said the proposal fits the neighborhood pattern of narrow lots and that an access easement would protect existing driveways for neighboring parcels.
920 South / 1020 West (Sunset neighborhood): City planner Jessica Donachy described a rezone proposal to harmonize split zoning on a single parcel (from R‑18 and RA to R‑17) to enable a two‑lot subdivision and one additional single‑family dwelling. She said the plan meets lot‑width, depth and acreage requirements once rezoned; staff recommended the change and it was scheduled for the evening hearing.
3080 North Bannock Drive (ADU map request): See separate article on ADU chapter discussion. Planning staff reiterated that the Bannock property has neighborhood signatures but that staff examined owner‑occupancy documentation and raised concerns; the planning commission recommended approval while staff opposed. That item was scheduled for public hearing later that night.
Why it matters: the items are typical infill and subdivision requests that will change lot patterns in established neighborhoods and require council review through the zoning map and subdivision process.
What happens next: all three items were set for the evening agenda’s public hearings and formal votes.
