Description/Background:
Adam Nash, representing several property owners that are part of the area zoned SD(Carnation), has submitted an application for a couple of code amendments to the existing SD(Carnation) Special Development District. The proposal would amend Title 21, Chapter 19 – Special Development (SD) Districts, Section 20 – SD(Carnation), of the Sandy Municipal Code. The existing SD Zone only affects approximately 3.3 acres located at approximately 980 East 10600 South (see zoning map). The proposed zone changes would allow for Jolley Pharmacy to relocate to this site in a new building, and retrofit the existing building into a Medical Office Plaza. In all, the applicant has proposed two (2) changes to the code (see the attached applicant letter) that would only apply to this zone district. He is requesting to make pharmacy (including ancillary compounding) and medical and health care office permitted uses in this zone. The request also includes a reduction in the required landscape buffer along 10600 South.
Additional details are found in the attached Staff Report.
