Description/Background:
Andrew Gutierrez is requesting to annex a certain contiguous unincorporated property that he owns, totaling approximately 0.93 acres, located at approximately 886 E. 7800 S. in Salt Lake County, Utah. The subject property under consideration for annexation contains two parcels. One has an existing single-family dwelling, and the other one is vacant. The subject property is intended to be further developed if annexed into Sandy City.
Sandy City borders the subject area to the south. The adjacent uses in this area include single family dwellings zoned R-1-8 to the south. To the immediate east are two duplex buildings and to the west are single family dwellings that will remain unincorporated. To the north, across 7800 S., are properties within the Midvale City boundaries. Further to the east, within Sandy City boundaries, is a phase of the White Pines Planned Unit Development (PUD) that is zoned PUD(10).
Sandy City does provide water service to this island. We are not proposing to annex to the center line of 7800 S. at this time. Public Works would like to annex the southern portion of the road when the rest of this area is annexed in the future.
The existing Salt Lake County zoning district for this unincorporated property is A-1. The A-1 zone requires a minimum of 10,000 square feet lot size for a single-family dwelling. Staff is proposing to annex the subject property into the City with the R-1-10 zone based on this being similar to the existing zone.
The Sandy City Planning Commission reviewed this request on April 4, 2024. They are forwarding a positive recommendation for this annexation and zoning.
See attached staff report for a detailed analysis.
Recommended Action and/or Suggested Motion:
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council approve Ordinance #24-08 for the 886 E. 7800 S. Trust Annexation and be zoned R-1-10 based upon the following findings:
Findings:
1. The area is contiguous to the Sandy City boundary (south side).
2. The property is located within an area designated in the Sandy City General Plan for incorporation.
3. The City can provide a high level of municipal services to these properties.
4. The R-1-10 is appropriate for this property based upon the existing zoning in the County.
