Council approves lot‑line adjustments and a minor subdivision, and updates subdivision code to meet new state law
Summary
Council approved multiple lot‑line adjustments, a conditional minor subdivision for 808/812 S. Main, and adopted ordinance 2024‑05 to revise Title 16 to implement state law changes.
Moab City Council on Dec. 10 approved several land‑use items recommended by the planning commission and adopted code changes to align the city subdivision chapter with recent state legislation.
The council approved a lot‑line adjustment for two Dragonfly Trail parcels (658 and 664 Dragonfly Trail) and for Nichols lots (588 Rose Tree and 591 Nichols Lane). The council also conditionally approved the La Dolce Vita minor subdivision for properties at 808 and 812 South Main Street; conditions require resolving outstanding planning comments, adding a public utility easement (PUE) and obtaining an Enbridge signature block for a gas service line before final recording.
Separately, the council adopted Ordinance 2024‑05 to update Title 16 (Subdivisions) to comply with the Utah Legislature’s 2023 Senate Bill 174 and 2024 House Bill 476. City planners and the city attorney recommended a technical amendment to the approval/appeal grid: lot‑line adjustments will be approved by the planning coordinator rather than City Council, and appeal review will be through the appeal authority rather than district court. Council included that amendment in the adopted ordinance.
Planning staff told the council that the lot‑line adjustments primarily align recorded boundaries with existing fences and use, and that survey scrivener changes were being corrected prior to final recordation. The La Dolce Vita approval carries the standard condition that outstanding staff comments be addressed before the final plat is recorded.
All land‑use motions were seconded and passed by the council at the meeting.
