Duchesne County Commission approves rezoning for 5‑acre parcel, adopts Ordinance No. 26429
Summary
The Duchesne County Commission approved a zoning‑district map amendment to rezone a 5‑acre parcel at 1125 South of 2800 West Roosevelt and adopted Ordinance No. 26429 on Feb. 17 after the planning commission unanimously recommended approval.
The Duchesne County Commission on Feb. 17 approved a zoning‑district map amendment to rezone a 5‑acre parcel at 1125 South of 2800 West Roosevelt, in the Cove Estate subdivision, and adopted Ordinance No. 26429 to ratify that change.
Unidentified Speaker (S6), presenting the item, said the planning commission held a Feb. 4 public hearing and "unanimously recommended the approval" of the applicant’s request to change the parcel from industrial zoning to an agricultural/residential district. The presenter said the county relies on findings of fact and a six‑point code analysis when reviewing map amendments and that staff found the request met the local code criteria.
Commission members asked whether a future water connection would change the parcel’s zoning automatically under the county code. S6 said a provision of the county code reclassifies parcels that connect to a public water system to R1 automatically and noted the applicant had a letter from Johnson Water indicating a water line could be extended.
Unidentified Speaker (S2) moved to approve the zoning‑district map amendment; the roll call that followed was recorded as "All affirmative votes." The commission then considered Ordinance No. 26429 to ratify the planning commission’s approval. A motion to adopt the ordinance likewise passed with "All affirmative votes," according to the meeting record.
