Description/Background:
Sandy City is requesting to annex a certain contiguous unincorporated area, totaling approximately 1.08 acres, located at 9876 S. 2700 E. in Salt Lake County, Utah. The subject property under consideration for annexation contains three parcels. One is for the home, and the two smaller ones are within the right-of-way. The property owner signed a consent to annex into Sandy City on June 25, 2020, in exchange for Sandy City providing water to this property.
The City Council approved Resolution 26-10C on March 3, 2026, which set a public hearing for April 7, 2026, and directed the City Recorder to publish and send notice of the hearing in accordance with Utah Code.
The existing Salt Lake County zoning district for this unincorporated property is R-1-43. The R-1-43 zone requires a minimum of 43,000 square feet of lot size for a single-family dwelling. Staff is proposing to annex the subject property into the City with the R-1-40 zone. The parcel that the home is on is approximately 40,075 square feet. The other two parcels can be combined with the home or be dedicated for future r-o-w property.
Please see attached staff report for a more detailed analysis.
On March 11, 2026 the owner emailed a withdrawal letter from this annexation.
