Heyburn adopts zoning code clarifications, hears first reading of building-code changes

City of Heyburn City Council · March 25, 2026

Summary

The council adopted Ordinance No. 2026-721 updating zoning land uses and clarifying subdivision allowances, and heard a first reading of Ordinance No. 2026-722 addressing building code references and administrative corrections.

City Attorney Paul Ross presented proposed amendments to the city code that clarify zoning land uses and when subdivisions are permitted in particular zoning districts. After a public hearing with no public comment, the council suspended the three-reading rule, read Ordinance No. 2026-721 by title, and adopted the ordinance on a motion by Joanne Justesen seconded by Brian Dodds; the vote was unanimous.

Ross also presented Ordinance No. 2026-722, which updates building-regulation references, corrects typos and outdated Idaho agency references, clarifies that the Public Works Director coordinates road closures (rather than the City Administrator), and removes elector restrictions for council and mayor elections. The council heard the first reading and Ross read the ordinance by title; a subsequent reading and adoption will follow the normal ordinance process.
