Description/Background:
The Sandy City Community Development Department has filed a request to amend Title 15A, Chapter 23, Commercial, Office, Industrial, and Transit Corridor Development Standards, Land Development Code, Revised Ordinances of Sandy City, 2008. The purpose of the Code Amendment is to consider removing a portion of the Administrative Code, specific to the authority of the Public Utilities Director, and add this to the Land Development Code. This language is related to approving alternatives to undergrounding existing utility lines when found to be currently impractical and would be part of a future large scale project.
In an effort to update all of the City’s regulations in order to publish them all on line, it has been requested to remove a section of the Administrative Code and add the same specific language to the Land Development Code.
Section 15A-23-12 of the Land Development Code identifies development standards for utilities on all new commercial projects within Sandy City. The new language to be added is directly related to the regulations found within this section.
Recommended Action and/or Suggested Motion:
Recommendation
The Community Development Department requests that the City Council adopt the proposed ordinance amendment as shown in exhibit AA@, found in the staff report.
