Council adopts Wildland-Urban Interface ordinance
Summary
Castle Dale council adopted a Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) ordinance recommended by the Land Use committee. The measure, presented as a clarification of WUI standards, was moved, seconded and approved by the council without recorded opposition.
Castle Dale's city council voted to adopt a Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) ordinance after land-use representatives asked the council to formalize the WUI code that had been recommended by the Land Use committee.
A council member introduced the ordinance noting the code had been reviewed by the committee and requested the council approve it "as long as you spell it out," after which another member seconded the motion. The council approved the ordinance by voice vote; no opposition was recorded.
The ordinance was presented to the council as a follow-up to a Land Use committee recommendation. Council members were asked to review the drafted language; the mover emphasized the need to ensure the ordinance text clearly states the city's WUI standards. No amendments or changes were recorded during the meeting.
The adoption completes the council's current step to codify WUI guidance previously vetted by the Land Use committee; staff did not identify an effective date in the discussion. Council members indicated the measure grew out of prior committee work rather than new debate at tonight's meeting.
The council moved on to other agenda items at the meeting's conclusion.
