Title
Reconsideration of an application for rezone, the "Quail Crest Rezone," located at approximately 1861 E, 1885 E, and 1889 East Dimple Dell Road pursuant to Sandy City Land Development Code Chapter 15A-05-04.
Body
Background:
On January 17, 2017 the City Council held a public hearing to consider the Quail Crest Rezone. Mr. Boyd Bradshaw of Quail Crest, LLC, is requested the City Council approve a rezone of approximately 4.56 acres from the R-1-20A “Single Family Residential District” to the R-1-40A “Single Family Residential District” and a rezone of approximately 3.22 acres from the R-1-20A “Single Family Residential District” to the R-1-12 “Single Family Residential District” for the subject property, located at approximately 1861 E, 1885 E, & 1895 East Dimple Dell Road.
