GARDEN CITY, Utah. March 4, 2015. The
Planning and Zoning public meeting began at 4:45 PM and had several people in
attendance. The discussions focused on the
Conditional Use Permit application to build a high quality RV Park and Campground
discussed last month. Lance recommended
that some minor wording be changed to ordinance 15-13, an ordinance updating RV
Parks. The board members present were:
Lance Bourne, Dewayne Gifford, Steve Arnold and Pat Argyle. Susan House and Jim Stone were absent.
The
P&Z meeting began at 5:00 PM and the agenda was followed. Jim DeGoot took the oath of office as a new board
member.
The
first topic discussed was the Conditional Use Permit for the RV park discussed during the
Public Hearing. The main concerns the
board had was with the proposed 30 foot turning radius of a circle where the
requirement is 50 feet and the 14 foot wide roads when the requirement is a
minimum of 24 feet. The board also
recommended two bridges across the canal instead of only one bridge for safety purposes.
The board approved the proposal if the above recommendations are met.
The
next topics on the agenda was a proposal for parking and architectural standard
for a new business that will be called “Crepes and Coffee” and located on the
vacant lot at 235 N. Bear Lake Blvd by Elke Brown. This will be a takeout business with 4 order
windows and a seating area on a patio. Eight parking places will be in the rear
with one RV parking space. There will
also be an area for overflow parking.
The board approved the proposed building plans with the exception of the
entrance which needs to be increased to 24 feet wide.
The
next topic scheduled to be discussed was 15-06, an ordinance stating that homes
can be built in specific commercial zones but the board tabled the discussion
because the three zoning ordinances need to be reviewed and updated to remove
duplication and to provide better clarification.
15-13,
an ordinance updating RV Parks was passed with word changes to remove pay phones
and references to fees.
The
board tabled the following discussion topics: Sign Ordinance, Commercial
Parking, Permitted and Conditional Uses in all Zones (enclosed/open kennels,
sexually oriented businesses).
Lance
requested the members to review the new seven page Sign Ordinance and provide
comments in preparation for the Town Council meeting.
Meeting
adjourned at 6:30 PM.
