Planning commission tweaks General Plan language for wastewater, parks and sports
Loading...
Summary
The commission reviewed and approved wording changes to Mendon’s General Plan, including clarifying wastewater language to anticipate a regional sewer district, removing a promotional sentence about parking/restrooms, and altering recreation and sports goals.
Mendon, Utah — Mendon’s Planning & Zoning Commission on March 19 reviewed a set of edits to the city’s General Plan that clarified wastewater planning and revised outdoor recreation and sports goals.
Commission members agreed to change the wastewater section to read that "As Mendon is preparing for sewer in the future, it will most likely be creating a sewer district with neighboring communities to the south." They also directed that references in section 9.12 should use "Waste Management" rather than "Logan City and Cache County," removed a sentence describing an imminent parking-lot and restroom completion, and requested minor wording and grammar fixes in other paragraphs.
In the Outdoor Recreation section, commissioners removed goal 2 (building a camping area) and goal 4 (private development). For sports planning, they changed goal 1 from "softball field" to "the City square" and revised another sports goal to replace "explore" with "continue," replace "city property" with "Legacy Park," and shorten a list of specific facilities to "and other sports options."
The commission did not take votes on ordinances or adopt new regulations; the edits are phrased as proposed changes to the General Plan text. Commissioners also discussed communicating these edits to residents in advance of final general-plan meetings.
The commission approved the meeting minutes and adjourned at 8:20 p.m.
