Garden City Planning Commission Meeting

GARDEN CITY , Utah. December 2, 2015. The Commission asked for a review of the building plans for Jake’s Place.  The restaurant is putting in a deck 30’ x 60’.  Additional parking will be needed with this expansion.  He noted that he had plenty of room and would make sure the City was aware of the number of parking spaces upon completion of the project.  He was asked to bring in a plan so that the City would be aware of all of the changes that are being requested.  He agreed to bring the plants to the next meeting.

The re-zone of the property on the south end of Garden City was discussed.  Since Norman Mecham requested that the 5-acre requirement be reconsidered, ideas and suggestions were discussed.  It was decided that contact would be made with Mecham in the next few days to get a better feel for what he would like.  This item will be included on next month’s agenda.

Four ordinances were considered by the Commission.  The first ordinance was updating the Commercial Zone.  It was approved as suggested.  The next ordinance updated the residential zone and was also approved.  The third ordinance gave a new RV definition.  It was approved.

The fourth ordinance updating recreation vehicles was discussed for some time with several changes being made.  The group did come to a consensus and approved the ordinance with the suggested changes.

A short discussion was had concerning the Hillside Estates Zone.  It was noted that the original plat had been accepted.  Currently there are several lots that do not meet the size requirement that is contained in the Hillside Estates Zone.  Since the original plat was accepted prior to the zone change, it was determined that those lots that don’t meet the size requirement should be allowed to still be developed.
