Kane County land use authority grants conditional approval to Gateway Development Final Plat

The Kane County Administrative Land Use Authority conditionally approved the Final Plat for the Gateway Development Subdivision on July 8, 2026. The subdivision, submitted by Benjamin Menlove and Susan Tarver, covers Parcel 3-5-34-2, is zoned R2 and proposes 26 lots with a minimum lot size of two acres; because the property lies within Kanab City’s annexation plan area, Kanab City provided review comments on June 11, 2026.

"The subdivision had completed the necessary review process and could move forward to Final Plat consideration," said Shannon McBride, Administrative Land Use Administrator, who recommended conditional approval. McBride told the authority that before the plat may be recorded the applicants must provide a Letter of Credit, obtain final review and approval from Civil Science, and submit any remaining documentation required by the county. The authority’s action grants approval only after those items are satisfied; recording cannot occur until county and Civil Science approvals are complete.

The record of the meeting does not specify mover/second or a vote tally for the conditional approval. The action was entered as a conditional approval by the Administrative Land Use Authority; the transcript notes the county commission had previously reviewed and acknowledged Kanab City’s comments. No additional permits, bond amounts, or recording dates were specified in the transcript.
