Body
Description/Background:
Andrei Tarassov is requesting to annex a certain contiguous unincorporated area, totaling approximately 0.64 acres, located at 8411 S. 1475 E. and 1491 E. 8425 S., in Salt Lake County, Utah. The subject property under consideration for annexation contains two lots. Both lots currently have an existing single-family dwelling. The property owners expressed interest in being annexed into Sandy City now rather than later as per HB 330 (2024 legislative session).
Staff does have the property owner consent.
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 of lot size for a single-family dwelling. Both lots are approximately 10,000 square feet. Staff is proposing to annex the subject property into the City with the R-1-10 zone. This zone would not allow any further development without considering a rezone of the area.
The City Council approved Resolution 24-43C on October 8, 2024 which set a public hearing for November 12, 2024, and directed the City Recorder to publish and send notice of the hearing in accordance with Utah Code.
See attached staff report for detailed analysis.
Recommended Action and/or Suggested Motion:
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Planning Commission send a positive recommendation to the City Council that the Wells/Tarassov Annexation be approved and zoned R-1-10 based upon the following findings:
1. The area is contiguous to the Sandy City boundary (north and east 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 current land uses within the area.
