Council acknowledges SR32 corridor and city‑center plan, emphasizing selective adoption
Summary
The council unanimously adopted resolution 2026‑01 acknowledging the UDOT/MAG SR32 corridor and city center plan while several members said they will selectively consider elements; members emphasized the resolution does not by itself amend the general plan.
Jill presented a resolution asking the council to acknowledge and accept the SR32 corridor and city‑center plan developed with UDOT and MAG funding and to direct that its findings be considered in future updates to the general plan and development codes.
Some councilors praised the data set and transportation recommendations but expressed reservations about the city‑center drawings and proposed downtown density, arguing the proposed layout did not reflect the councilors’ view of the community’s character. "The downtown along Main Street is a complete joke," one councilor said, stressing the resolution should not lock the city into specific design elements.
Staff and other members explained the resolution is permissive — it acknowledges the study and allows the city to consider its recommendations, but paragraph language clarifies it does not amend existing policy. The council moved, seconded and approved resolution 2026‑01 (roll‑call votes recorded as affirmative).
