Description/Background:
Jeff Summerhays, representing the property owner Arleen May Summerhays, is requesting to annex a certain contiguous unincorporated area, totaling approximately 5.77 acres, located at 2935 E. Dimple Dell Road in Salt Lake County, Utah. The subject property under consideration for annexation contains one lot with two individual homes. The property owner expressed interest in being annexed into Sandy City now rather than later as per HB 330 (2024 legislative session). The owner is considering further subdividing the property after being annexed into Sandy City.
Staff does have the consent from the property owner. Sandy City borders the subject area to the west, south and east sides.
The City Council approved Resolution 25-52C on December 16, 2025, which set a public hearing for January 20, 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-1-40A zone. There are a variety of residential zoning districts in this area within Sandy City. These zones include R-1-40A (to the east), R-1-20A (to the south) and PUD(1.62) (to the southwest).
Please see the attached staff report for a more detailed analysis of this proposed annexation.
