County staff asked the board on Jan. 14 to set a public hearing for Feb. 4 on vacating 2,000 feet of Butler Terrace, beginning 850 feet east of Utah Road, to move a gate westward and reduce trespass and dumping that residents reported along the current dead-end section.

Jeff, the presenting staff member, said the change responds to repeated complaints that people drive down the hill, damage fences and dump trash. He told commissioners he had spoken with the affected property owners and that one parcel already had out-of-state ownership associated with weekend use; staff said the proposed relocation would not create additional landlocked parcels.

Commissioner discussion focused on map details and whether access would be preserved. A motion to set a public hearing was made and commissioners voted to schedule the hearing for Feb. 4, 2026; the hearing will provide formal notice and an opportunity for public comment and more detailed review of the map and legal implications.

Staff said they will prepare notices and supporting documents for the hearing and that further factual questions (including parcel access and any required easements) will be addressed during the hearing record.
