Planning commission recommends rezoning for Symphony Homes subdivision near South Sunset Drive
Summary
Kaysville planning staff recommended and the commission voted to forward a recommendation of approval to the city council for rezoning roughly 16.2 acres near 1800 South Sunset Drive from agricultural to R-1-14 single-family residential; staff noted sufficient culinary water capacity and mixed public comment.
Planning staff recommended approval and the Kaysville Planning Commission voted to forward a recommendation to the city council for a rezoning application submitted by Symphony Homes and property owners Catherine Lisby and Lee Stenquist for parcels near 1800 South Sunset Drive.
A city planner summarized the proposal as roughly 16.2 acres across about five parcels adjacent to South Sunset Drive and said the current layout shows 33 lots (the applicant and added parcels bring the lot total to 35). The planner said the lots in the new plan range roughly from 14,000 to 21,000 square feet, that the request aligns with the city's 2022 general plan and future land-use map for single-family residential, and that staff's water-capacity analysis indicates sufficient culinary water to support the project. Staff also reported 54 mailed notices, one emailed opposition citing concerns about density and loss of agricultural land, and one email of support.
Matt Loveland, representing Symphony Homes, told the commission the application is a straight zone change to R-1-14 and does not include a development agreement, PRUD, private roads, or a public improvement district (PID). "We do not plan to file for or apply for a public improvement district," Loveland said, and described changes since the prior plan including moving a right-of-way further south along Sunset Drive and increasing average lot sizes so new lots start at about 14,000 square feet.
Commissioners asked about which parcels were included and whether a PRUD was being requested; Loveland confirmed the Lisby and Stenquist parcels are included and that no PRUD is proposed. Staff said design work is in progress on the Angel Street connection and described ongoing negotiations with the sewer district; a sewer-district representative said the parties have a verbal agreement on terms and expect design and a formal offer to be completed in the next couple of months, enabling the street connection.
After discussion, a committee member moved to recommend approval of the rezoning from A-1 and RA to R-1-14 for the listed parcels; another committee member seconded, commissioners voted, and the motion carried. The planning commission's recommendation will be forwarded to the Kaysville City Council for its decision.
The planning commission also approved the minutes from its July 9, 2026 meeting during the same session.
