Description/Background:
Mike Deputy is requesting to annex a certain contiguous unincorporated area, totaling approximately 3.96 acres, located at approximately 9603-9643 S. Glacier Park Lane in Salt Lake County, Utah.

As we have done this, we have considered the existing properties that are adjacent to the area being annexed and try to assure that the annexed area is compatible with the existing area. Staff is proposing to annex the subject property into the City with the R-1-20 zone based on this being similar to the existing zone.

3. The City...
