Council approves rezoning for Cooper Landing after UDOT access constraint
Summary
Council approved Ordinance 20 25 - 13 to rezone Cooper Landing (approx. 6025 South 475 East) from agricultural to moderate‑density residential after staff and the applicant said UDOT would not move a no‑access line, limiting commercial feasibility.
The South Weber City Council unanimously approved Ordinance 20 25 - 13 on June 10, rezoning the Cooper Landing parcel at roughly 6025 South 475 East from agricultural to residential moderate density.
Council members raised questions about losing potential retail development. Staff and the applicant explained that a UDOT no‑access line would not be moved, which constrained access and made commercial development impractical. One council member said the proposed home plans were attractive and a reasonable second choice to retail. The applicant and staff noted grading and ditch improvements would be needed to make the north entrance user friendly and that the private drive buffer to the west would be maintained by the HOA.
A council member moved to approve the ordinance; after a roll‑call vote the mayor declared the vote unanimous and the motion carried. Staff will continue plan and grading review as the applicant proceeds through development processes.
