County updates property‑disposition code to align with new state law
Summary
Summit County amended Title 1 Chapter 11 to reflect state changes: the statutory $500,000 threshold now defines a 'significant parcel' requiring public notice and a 14‑day hearing (manager may hold the hearing). New publication steps require posting on the Utah Public Notice site and a 45‑day property sign; the ordinance preserves exceptions for affordable‑housing conveyances.
County counsel presented amendments to the county’s disposition code to align with changes in state law (House Bill 535). The principal statutory threshold — an interest in real property with a value of $500,000 or more — now defines a "significant parcel" and triggers enhanced notice and hearing requirements. Counsel walked the council through new procedural steps: publish notice on the Utah Public Notice website, post a physical sign on the property for a consecutive 45 days, and hold a public hearing with 14‑day notice (the county manager may conduct the hearing). He also clarified the written conveyance and record‑keeping changes and retained existing affordable‑housing exceptions that exempt many housing conveyances from repetitive council approvals. Council adopted the ordinance unanimously.
