Commission recommends Spring Creek area plan updates to City Council with density clarifications

Payson City Planning Commission · March 12, 2026

Summary

The commission voted to forward the Spring Creek area specific plan to City Council with recommended clarifications about how mixed-density residential areas should be interpreted alongside the broader code update.

The Payson City Planning Commission voted to forward a favorable recommendation on the Spring Creek area specific plan to the City Council after a brief discussion and procedural hearing.

Staff noted the Spring Creek plan was recently adopted (December 2023) and requires only limited clarifying language. Commissioner Frisbie asked whether the plan’s reference to “mixed density residential” has specific lot-size guidance; staff said the current amendment does not add detailed percentage or lot-size mixes but that the broader zoning code update could incorporate density-bonus tools to achieve mixed lot sizes.

The commission opened and closed the public hearing for the Spring Creek item with no public testimony and approved the motion to recommend the plan to the City Council.
