Cedar Hills starts process to adjust boundary with Pleasant Grove to allow sewer connection
Summary
The council unanimously approved a resolution to begin a 60-day notice period for a boundary adjustment requested so a homeowner on Wedgwood with a failed septic system can connect to Cedar Hills sewer; Pleasant Grove previously initiated the same process.
The council unanimously approved a resolution to start the statutory process that would allow portion(s) of Wedgwood/4000 West currently owned or administered by Pleasant Grove to change jurisdiction. Staff said the immediate driver is a household whose septic system failed and needs access to the nearest sewer line, which is served by Cedar Hills.
City staff explained the resolution initiates a 60‑day public‑notice period, after which a hearing will be held and affected property owners may submit objections. If a sufficient percentage of homeowners or assessed‑value thresholds oppose the change, the adjustment can fail; the process mirrors recent action Pleasant Grove took to initiate the same clock on their end.
Why it matters: annexation or boundary adjustments change utility responsibilities, property‑tax treatment and municipal services. Staff emphasized that residents who might be affected will have an opportunity to weigh in during the statutory notice and public‑hearing period.
What happens next: the resolution starts the timeline for public notice and a future hearing; staff will follow statutory steps and report back as petition thresholds and resident comments are collected.
