Description/Background:
On behalf of Sandy City, the Community Development Department is proposing to Amend Title 21, Chapter 19, Section 34 SD(R-1-30A) Bell Canyon Acres, of the Sandy Municipal Code. This request was made from City Administration (see the attached Exhibit “C”) for staff to prepare some changes to the requirements of the Special Development Zone, SD(R-1-30A) - Bell Canyon Acres, that applies to approximately 110 acres, located at approximately 1300 East and 10600 South. The intent of the request is to amend the requirements of this Special Development (SD) Zone that would refine the special regulations intended to further encourage the preservation of this area’s unique identity and refine requirements that have proven difficult to apply and enforce.
A full staff report is attached with several exhibits.
