Description/Background:
On behalf of Sandy City, the Community Development Department is proposing to amend Title 21, Land Development Code, Chapter 30, Subdivision Review, and Chapter 36, Notice Requirements. The code amendments would update the public noticing requirements for neighborhood meetings, and the subdivision review requirements and procedures for subdivision plat amendments, property line adjustments and street vacations.
Staff originally brought a comprehensive package of code amendments that addressed new state legislation under Senate Bill 174 and House Bill 406 (2023) relating to requirements for subdividing residential property, as well as discretionary amendments to the subdivision review and public notice requirements.
Due to Council concerns at the time, staff reduced the original proposal to only those code amendments required to meet the new state law. That code amendment package was subsequently adopted in January of 2024. To follow up on the original initiative, staff is now proposing discretionary code amendments to clarify and refine the land development code.
The specific amendments to the Land Development Code are included in the staff report attachments as Exhibit “A” (red-lined version) and Exhibit “B” (clean version).
Please see the attached staff report and exhibits for the full details of this item.
Further action to be taken:
The City Council will make the final decision on this item.
