6 issues in development with high priority
Orem residents are fighting against new housing developments that would allow for more apartments and townhomes. They're worried about changing the city's 'Family City USA' image and keeping their neighborhoods feeling like they always have.
A developer wants to turn a 5.45-acre site into a new housing subdivision. This would change the land from public use to residential.
This project would add 44 twin-home units to the Geneva Road area. Neighbors are concerned about how this will affect traffic and the flow of cars through existing streets.
A new 51-home subdivision is being proposed for the R8 zone. The project includes new roads, sidewalks, and a trail connection, along with a stormwater retention basin that will require a homeowners association for maintenance. This will add housing to the area and require new infrastructure.
The city is reviewing several new commercial projects, including a Home Depot and an Apollo Burger, which will change the look and traffic patterns of their respective neighborhoods.
Orem's City Council just greenlit a major State Street development, sparking resident concerns about changes to their commute and the neighborhood's aesthetic. This project is set to reshape a significant portion of the city.
