Planning commission recommends rezoning of five-acre Roosevelt parcel to A-5 Agricultural
Summary
The Duchesne County Planning Commission on Feb. 4 recommended approval of a zoning map amendment to rezone a single five-acre parcel in the Roosevelt area from I (Industrial) to A-5 (Agricultural), contingent on no objections during the remaining notice period; the motion passed unanimously.
The Duchesne County Planning Commission recommended approval of a zoning map amendment on Feb. 4, 2026, to rezone a single five-acre parcel in the Roosevelt area from I (Industrial) to A-5 (Agricultural).
Mike Gottfredson, deputy director of Community Development, presented the staff findings of fact (on file with the Community Development Department) and confirmed the request applies to one five-acre parcel. Commissioners asked clarifying questions about acreage, public objections and why agricultural rather than residential zoning was requested. Gottfredson said residential zoning would require a water connection and that no written objections had been received to date but that objections could still be submitted within the remaining notice period.
Applicant Jon Wilkerson told the commission he recently purchased the lot and ‘‘believed there is greater demand for residential use than industrial’’ on the parcel, which he cited as the rationale for pursuing A-5 rather than Industrial zoning.
With no public comments received, Commissioner Annette Miller moved to recommend approval of the zoning map amendment from I (Industrial) to A-5 (Agricultural), contingent upon no objections being received within the remaining notice period. Commissioner Reed Van Wagoner seconded the motion; the vote was unanimous.
Votes at a glance: - Recommendation to rezone the Roosevelt parcel from I to A-5 (moved by Commissioner Annette Miller; seconded by Commissioner Reed Van Wagoner): unanimous recommendation to approve, contingent on no timely objections. - Approval of minutes for the Jan. 7, 2026 meeting (moved by Commissioner Connie Sweat; seconded by Commissioner Judy Wilkerson): unanimous.
What happens next: The commission’s recommendation will be part of the record for the county’s review process; the rezoning is contingent on the outcome of the notice period and any objections filed during that period. Staff indicated findings of fact are on file with the Community Development Department for those seeking additional detail.
