Loading...
Summary
City staff reported administrative work continues on moratoria for short‑term rentals and annexation/subdivision; a cemetery ordinance and proposed veterans memorial remain on hold, and the planning commission’s ADU recommendations will be heard publicly on April 15.
Under continuing business the council reviewed several land‑use matters. Staff said the short‑term rentals moratorium remains under administrative review with an anticipated public hearing; an annexation and subdivision moratorium also remains on hold while staff complete related administrative work.
Council and staff discussed a cemetery ordinance focused on headstone logistics and configurations; the ordinance remains in progress. A new veterans memorial design has been submitted and site locations are under discussion.
The planning commission’s recommendations for accessory dwelling units (ADUs) — including considerations about windows, setbacks and building design — prompted the council to set a public hearing on April 15, 2026, to solicit public comment on ordinance wording. Staff noted SB284 was discussed but said it does not apply to Manti because of the city’s population size.
No formal ordinances were adopted at the meeting; councilmembers asked that ordinance language be vetted, and staff will return with refined proposals for public hearings.
