Summary
At an Aug. 13 planning and zoning public hearing, Mayor Robert (BJ) Berlin described a variance request to split the five‑lot property at 657 N 2865 E into two parcels; staff said the application met requirements, the applicant declined to speak, and the hearing closed with no public testimony.
Mayor Robert (BJ) Berlin opened a planning and zoning public hearing in Roberts on Aug. 13, 2024, to consider a variance to the Roberts Building Code that would allow the property at 657 N 2865 E to be divided into two parcels. The meeting began at 6:50 p.m. and the public hearing was closed at 6:59 p.m.
The mayor said the parcel currently contains five lots and that the applicant seeks to split the property into two parcels. According to the mayor’s announcement, city staff reviewed the application and found that it met the city’s requirements; he also noted that similar variances have been granted in the past. The transcript records no details of staff analysis beyond the mayor’s statement that requirements had been met.
Mayor Berlin invited the applicants to speak, but the applicant "refrained from speaking" when given the opportunity. The mayor then asked whether anyone wished to offer dissenting views or testimony and opened the floor for comments; the transcript does not record any public comment or questions. The mayor closed the public hearing at 6:59 p.m.
The transcript does not record any formal motion, vote, or final action on the variance during the hearing itself. The record indicates only that the public hearing was convened, the application was described, the applicant declined to speak, and no public testimony was recorded. Next procedural steps (for example, scheduling a council decision or vote) were not specified in the transcript.
Those listed as present in the meeting record include council members (as listed in the roll call): Edidt Sanchez; Ben Poston; James Zillinger; Shauna Lounsbury; and April Galbraith, along with city staff and other attendees including Taci Stoddard (Altura) and Jaden Jackson (Keller Associates). The transcript identifies the Roberts Building Code as the governing authority referenced during the hearing.
The hearing record in this transcript ends with the public hearing’s closure. The transcript does not provide a recorded vote, a council decision, or further deadlines.
