Summary

Payson planners voted to send a positive recommendation to City Council for changes to Title 13 (Zoning) that parallel subdivision regulation edits and clarify how residential density is calculated across zoning provisions.

The Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend that City Council approve amendments to Title 13 (Zoning) to clarify residential density calculations. Michael Bryant presented the package, explaining staff seeks consistency between subdivision and zoning codes by using a single definition of "density." There was no public comment at the hearing.

Commission discussion centered on how the new definition will work alongside zone-specific standards, such as mixed-density residential parameters and whether the R-1-7.5 zone will allow duplex or twin-home configurations. Commissioners Heimuli, Frisby, and Adams asked staff for specifics; staff answered and the commission then voted to forward a favorable recommendation to City Council.
