Summary

Commissioners approved Ordinance #651 rezoning 22 acres in the Corinne/Bear River area from A-20 to RR-5, tabled a Garland City annexation for more information, and directed staff to prepare an ordinance for a road vacation near Clear Creek.

The Box Elder County Commission on May 27 approved Ordinance No. 651 to rezone roughly 22 acres in the Corinne/Bear River area from A-20 (Agriculture, 20-acre minimum) to RR-5 (Rural Residential, 5-acre minimum).

Community Development Director Scott Lyons said the parcel is planned to be divided into five-acre lots for family members and that the Planning Commission held a public hearing on May 21 with no opposing public comment; the Planning Commission recommended approval. Commissioner Lee Perry moved to approve Ordinance #651; the motion passed unanimously on a roll-call vote (Vincent Yea, Bingham Yea, Perry Yea).

Separately, Lyons presented a proposed annexation into Garland City at approximately 12800 N 7000 W. The parcel is served by Garland City water and would create an island parcel under county code; commissioners discussed water, the narrow road and emergency services and voted to table the item pending further information.

Lyons also opened a public hearing on a road vacation near 53400 W 27200 N in the Clear Creek area. No public comments were offered during the hearing and commissioners directed staff to prepare the necessary ordinance for consideration at a future meeting.
