A request to build a single-family home on a lot with slopes greater than 30%.
Cottonwood Heights is stuck in a tug-of-war between developers wanting to build more housing and residents fighting to keep their neighborhoods exactly as they are. It’s the classic battle of 'growth vs. character' that’s defining the future of our city’s skyline.
