5 issues in zoning with medium priority
Commercial Parking Code Amendment in Grove Interchange Subdistrict
St. John Properties has requested a code amendment to allow commercial parking lots and garages on a fee basis as an accessory use in the Grove Interchange Subdistrict. The change includes strict qualifying provisions, requiring a minimum of 300 parking stalls and limiting the fee-based use to excess spaces.
Zone Change Request at 980 West 1800 North
A property owner wants to rezone a 1-acre parcel from Rural Residential to R1-20 to split the lot and build a new home. Neighbors generally supported the project, though one raised concerns about driveway placement.
Tattooing Permitted Use in Grove Interchange
An application to permit tattooing in the Grove Interchange sub-district was denied after council members and planners agreed the area should prioritize retail and sales-tax-generating businesses.
Residential Agricultural Overlay for 1270 North 580 East
New homeowners requested an agricultural overlay on their historic 2.18-acre property to plant orchards, keep bees, and raise farm animals. Neighbors strongly supported the plan, praising it as a great way to preserve green space instead of building more houses.
BMP Zone Amendment for Automobile Services
St. John Properties asked to allow auto repair and related services in the BMP zone. The commission approved the change with safeguards, banning standard mechanic shops (6411) and requiring all outdoor storage to be tucked behind an 8-foot fence.
