Commission backs change to front-yard definition for flag lots
Summary
Hurricane Planning Commission unanimously recommended City Council approval of LUCA25-12, a code amendment clarifying front-yard setback definitions for flag lots (Title 10 Chapter 37 §10), saying it will provide more predictable relief for flag-lot building situations.
The Hurricane City Planning Commission on Dec. 11 voted to recommend approval of LUCA25-12, a land-use code amendment that clarifies how front yards are defined on flag lots.
During public comment a resident described a specific flag-lot layout and asked how the change would apply. Staff said the amendment is a citywide clarification intended to redefine front-yard setback calculations for existing and future flag lots, potentially giving property owners more flexibility.
Commissioners raised no objections. Commissioner Amy Warrett moved to send LUCA25-12 to the City Council with a favorable recommendation; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote.
The Planning Commission’s recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council for final consideration per the city’s code-amendment process.
