Council approves $80,000 purchase of 1.224 acres for future 1000 South corridor
Summary
Pleasant Grove City Council adopted Resolution 2025‑07 to buy a 1.224‑acre parcel from Unicorn Killers Trust for $80,000 to preserve right‑of‑way for the planned 1000 South connector; the County valuation listed $97,100.
The Pleasant Grove City Council on Feb. 18 authorized the Mayor to sign a purchase agreement with Unicorn Killers Trust (Clint and Angela Kelson, trustees) to acquire approximately 1.224 acres near 900 East and 1000 South for corridor preservation. City materials noted a County valuation of $97,100 and the agreed purchase price of $80,000. Council Member Todd Williams moved adoption of Resolution 2025‑07; Council Member Cyd LeMone seconded, and the motion carried unanimously.
City staff said the acquisition is intended to secure corridor continuity for a future east‑west connection shown in the City’s Vicinity Plan. Staff also noted there is no currently budgeted funding to construct the full 1000 South roadway; previous discussions decades ago considered funding through regional programs such as the Mountainland Association of Governments. The purchase secures right‑of‑way while construction funding remains uncertain.
