Description/Background:
On October 17, 2024, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider a recommendation regarding a comprehensive update to the Sandy City General Plan. Following approximately two years of preparation, a draft document of the proposed updated General Plan (Pace of Progress: Sandy General Plan 2050) was publicly made available on August 29, 2024. The Planning Commission unanimously recommended that the City Council approve the proposed draft, subject to a series of changes to the August 29, 2024 draft that were included in the Planning Commission's recommendation. The project team has created a revised draft, dated October 21, 2024, that reflects the Planning Commission's proposed draft, including all changes. The Planning Commission's proposed draft (October 21, 2024) is available on the project website (https://sandypaceofprogress.org).
The project team is currently scheduled to present the draft Pace of Progress: Sandy General Plan 2050 to the City Council over the course of four meetings. The project team presented Sections 1 (Overview) and 2 (Livability) of the document on October 22, 2024, Section 7 (Targeted Growth Plan) on November 12, 2024, and Appendix A (Station Area Planning) and Appendix B (Neighborhood Activity Centers) on November 19, 2024.
Upcoming City Council meetings include Council action regarding the General Plan draft, tentatively scheduled for December 17.
