Commission continues hearing on Ordinance 26-432, schedules July 29 follow-up
Summary
The Planning Commission recessed the public hearing on Ordinance 26-432—proposed updates to appeal authority, subdivision definitions, and administrative naming—until July 29, 2026, after Deputy Director Mike Gottfredson presented the 6/30/26 draft.
The Duchesne County Planning Commission recessed its continued public hearing on Ordinance 26-432 to July 29, 2026, after a staff presentation outlining the proposed amendments.
Deputy Director Mike Gottfredson presented the 6/30/26 draft and described its intent: make substantial changes to the county code on appeal authority and appeal process (including specifying who may not act as an appeal authority), convert some appeal hearings to public meetings, update state code references, standardize department and title names across the code, and revise subdivision-exemption and boundary-adjustment language to align with state definitions (introducing "simple boundary adjustment" and "full boundary adjustment" definitions and renaming "minor subdivisions" to "simple subdivisions"). Gottfredson also noted the added requirement to send an electronic copy of an approved final plat to the Utah Geospatial Resource Center for 911 road-network updates.
There was no public comment on the draft. Commissioner Connie Sweat moved to recess the hearing to the commission’s next scheduled meeting on July 29 at 5:00 PM; Commissioner Reed Van Wagoner seconded and the motion "carried unanimously."
