GARDEN CITY,Utah. April 3, 2013.  The Planning and Zoning public meeting was held as scheduled at 4:45 PM on the first Wednesday of the month prior to the regularly scheduled meeting.   The board members in attendance were: Chair, Lance Bourne, Mike Schiess, Dallas Solum and DeWayne Gifford.  The following members were absent: Jim Wood, Nate Gracey, Chuck Stocking. 
 

There was a conditional use permit request to build another home at the Lazy D Ranch at 69 N. Paradise Parkway.  There were no comments by the board or public. After the public hearing the board granted the request. 

Subway Sandwich mangers provided their drawings to the P&Z two weeks ago for review/approval.  The board voiced concern with the availability of public parking in front of the Texaco.  The board’s main issue was with inadequate parking space in the back of the Texaco/Bear’s Den on the west side.  Chair Lance Bourne said a special meeting should be held as soon as possible to both resolve the board’s concerns and to help Subway owners tp meet their desired Memorial Day Weekend opening date.  The two parties agreed to meeting next Monday at 1:00 PM.  Bourne provided the following check points that need to be resolved: lighting in parking lot, overflow parking, parking space painting, ingress/egress, dumpster location, garbage pickup, leased area square footage, and storage.

The next topic discussed was the Parking and Architectural Standards for Sunrise Resort to be located at 865 N. Harbor Village East Dr.  The board requested better drawings showing square footage of the building and for the parking lot; especially during the summer months when boat and ATV parking increase.  The current plan is to share parking with World Mart plus parking spaces on the east side of the building.  The business is a short term rental with 22 bedrooms but is not a hotel, so it falls under different zoning requirements. George Peart, building inspector, said one parking space is required for every 5 people in an individual unit.  So, if a family of six rents a unit, there would need to be two parking spaces available for them to use.  He said had told the management of Sunrise Resort to come to the P&Z meeting to address the parking concern. 

Peart said that a building permit was submitted for a building at 100 West and 350 South.
