Planning commission recommends updating Title 17 to match new Utah code references

Midvale City Planning Commission · August 13, 2026

Summary

Staff recommended and the commission voted to recommend approval to the city council of a Midvale-initiated text amendment to update Title 17 references to the renumbered Utah state code. No public comment was received and the motion passed on roll call.

Midvale City Planning Commission recommended the city council approve a city-initiated zoning code text amendment to update references in Title 17 to the recently renumbered Utah state code.

Staff explained the state legislature renumbered the former chapter 10-9A (Land Use Management Act) and that multiple code citations in Title 17 need correction. The staff presentation concluded that the draft language met the procedural requirements for a text amendment and recommended the commission forward the item to the council with a recommendation of approval.

The commission opened and closed the public hearing with no public comments. A motion to recommend approval — "I move that we recommend approval of the zoning code text amendment updating Utah state code references in title 17 as provided in the attachments with the finding noted in the staff report" — was moved and seconded; a roll-call vote was recorded and the motion passed.

Why it matters: updating statutory citations keeps the municipal code consistent with state law and prevents future interpretive confusion when staff and applicants rely on cross-references. The item will be forwarded to the city council for a final decision.
