Council approves Harley Construction vicinity‑plan amendment amid resident safety concerns
Summary
Pleasant Grove adopted an amendment to the Official Vicinity Plan for property near 2300 North 100 East (Harley Construction) to create a cul‑de‑sac rather than a road connection. Residents raised concerns about construction traffic, sidewalks, and lighting; staff said the cul‑de‑sac complies with the 650‑foot limit.
Pleasant Grove City Council on Jan. 21, 2025, adopted an ordinance amending the Official Vicinity Plan for property near 2300 North 100 East to favor a cul‑de‑sac configuration rather than connecting to 100 East. Director Neal Winterton described the plan’s intent to reduce unsafe through‑traffic and reiterated that the proposed cul‑de‑sac meets the city’s 650‑foot limit.
Nearby residents raised several concerns during the public hearing: Jared Such questioned cul‑de‑sac length and construction traffic; Janet Chatterly and Jarren Chatterley expressed worries about lack of sidewalks and streetlights and potential hazards for children. Director Winterton noted that Utah County does not require sidewalks or streetlights at original development and said future homeowners can install sidewalks; the council unanimously adopted the amendment.
