GARDEN CITY, Utah. July 6, 2016. The Planning and Zoning public hearing meeting began at 5:10 PM and had 4 residents in attendance. The board members present were: Lance Bourne (Chair), Jim DeGroot, Joey Stocking, Dewayne Gifford, Susan House and Tom Stevens.
Public comments were requested in regard to the final plat for Legacy Beach located at approximately 552 S Bear Lake Blvd. There is a concern on how to resolve the labeling method for the location of a dedicated public 8 ft wide beach access path for 100 years. Nate Parry stated the project will not be done in phases.
Julie Weston requested information in regard to her parents plan to live in a house located at 205 S. Bear Lake Blvd and have a food trailer in front of the house. The food truck would serve Chinese and Japanese cuisine. If the plan was possible she would requested some extensions on some of the timelines identified in the Transient Business policy. The request was denied based on the current parking ordinance policy.
The Public Notice meeting began at 5:45 and no additional residents were present. After roll call and approval of minutes the discussions began in regard to the agenda.
Nate Parry requested final approval of his Legacy Beach project. There is a long list of minor issues that need to be resolved. Lance proposed hard dates be assigned to each task before approval would be given. One of the main issues was with the state requiring a higher berm than what was accepted earlier in the year. The purpose of the berm is to prevent 100 year storm runoff levels draining into the lake. Another issue is for an 8 ft public beach access walkway on the south side of the project with a privacy fence per HOA guidelines. The board approved the plan based on hard completion dates being assigned by the next City Council meeting.
Mark Smoot and Don White requested input on their plan for a future mixed use development located on both sides of 200 N so he can begin making final plans. They pointed out the plan would also include a development of commercial storage parking down 200 North toward 300 West. The board said they do not a see an issue with their proposed plan.
Clair Webb requested information about the future plans for roads near 1800 S. Bear Lake Blvd, off Hodges Canyon, and a C-3 zone off Hwy 89 near the beginning of Bridgerland. He wanted to know about any height limits for zip line towers, climbing walls, water slides, rope lifts and if both entrance/exit requirements are required for commercial property. He also wanted to know if he bought a 60 acre parcel if he could develop only 5 acres. The board stated there are no height limits for towers and commercial property is not required to have both ingress/egress lanes. They also stated he could develop only part of the acreage.
The board discussed the issues with the Transient Business policy. Lance stated his concern with the $250/10 days not being business friendly in his opinion. Joey stated the policy also does not allow the business to be open on Raspberry Days, requires a $2M liability insurance, and a $1500 bond. Lance requested each member to think about the policy requirements and to bring their ideas to next month’s meeting in an attempt to make the policy more acceptable to small business.
