Melissa Anderson, Zoning Administrator
Body
Description/Background:
The proposed code amendments would amend Title 21, Land Development Code, Chapter 37, Definitions, Section 20, "S" Definitions. During the 2024 Utah Legislative Session, House Bill 476 was passed, which enacted language relating to residential rear setback exceptions for uncovered landings, uncovered walkout porches, and window wells (UCA 10-9a-538, Residential Rear Setback Limitations). The proposed code amendment will bring the City’s land use code under Sec. 21-34-20(21) into compliance with these new state law provisions.
On May 16, 2024, the Planning Commission recommended the City Council adopt the proposed amendments to Title 21, of the Land Development Code, relating to Rear Setback Exceptions as shown in Exhibit “A” (red-lined version) and Exhibit “B” (clean version).
