Public Comment for Planning Commission Items

Alan and Jinhee Thayn request approval of the Thayn Flag Lot Conditional Use located at 1519 North 300 West. Flag lots are conditional use because they allow the Planning Commission to put conditions such as the way the house faces, requiring fencing, or plantings, or other similar conditions.

Several flag lots already exist in this area. This flag lot is unique in that it does not have the required frontage on the property line, but it does have enough width at the front yard setback.

The applicant requests review and recommendation of the Gardner Point Phase 2 Preliminary Subdivision. The proposed subdivision is a residential development consisting of single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums, and open space.

The proposed subdivision will include a total of 635-units and will be developed as a PUD (planned unit development). These units are proposed to be a mixture of unit types including single-family homes, rear-load townhomes, front-load townhomes, and condominiums. The single-family units will largely be located on the western portion of the site and a mixture of units are proposed throughout the southern and eastern portions of the site. The proposed subdivision provides a mixture of rear-loading and front-loading townhomes, which meets the Development Code requirements. The rear-load townhomes and condominiums are designed to front open space or larger public roads.

In addition to the varied unit-types, the proposed plan meets the ten percent open space requirements for planned residential developments. The open space includes completing a portion of the City’s master-planned trail along 3600 West, neighborhood parks with amenities, a clubhouse with a pool, and other passive open spaces. Greenways are shown to interconnect open spaces and provide a connected greenspace network. The plan shows a linear open space along the master planned canal trail along a proposed roadway to provide open access and visibility to the neighborhood. In addition, this phase will also continue the 10-foot-wide asphalt trail along 1500 North to provide greater bike and pedestrian connectivity throughout the area.

The proposed subdivision meets the street connectivity requirements for block lengths, connectivity index, and provides additional pedestrian access through several blocks to increase walkability. An exception is requested on the west side of the development due to the steep grade up to the existing canal, which is justified as shown with the steep slopes shown in the grading plan. Two pedestrian access points are proposed to provide access from the neighborhood to the canal trail.

The applicant is requesting preliminary subdivision review and recommendation of the Taylor Meadows Phase II Subdivision. The proposed subdivision will include 22 single-family lots in the R-1-22 zone. The proposed subdivision will be a second phase to the Taylor Meadows subdivision.

The proposed subdivision will include 22 single-family lots on 14.55 acres. This results in a density of 1.51 units per acre, which meets the requirement of the R-1-22 zone. The lots range in size from 21,396 square feet to 37,783 square feet. The DRC commented that lot 11, which has less than 22,000 square feet, would need to meet the 22,000 square foot requirement for the zone. Once that change has been made, all the lots will meet the size requirement for the zone. When combined with Taylor Meadows Phase 1, the connectivity requirements are met with this subdivision.

The applicant is requesting review and recommendation of the X Development Concept located at 2100 North and 2300 West. The applicant has indicated in their narrative that the proposed development is a concept plan for a PUD (planned unit development). The proposed development would include 66 single family lots and a two-acre commercial parcel.

The proposed plan shows two acres of commercial at the corner of 2300 W and 2100 North. The remaining 18 acres shows 66 lots of single family residential on lots ranging from 5,457 square feet to 10,752 square feet. The site proposes connections to 2300 West and the Green Park Plat B Subdivision to the east to provide connectivity to the site. In addition, a trail is being shown along 2100 North and another is shown going north/south in the site to provide additional connectivity through the neighborhood. The widening of the sidewalk on 2100 N to a 10’ trail and the connecting neighborhood trail could contribute towards a density bonus.

The proposed plan shows areas for open space. The open space is in the center of the development, with additional pieces being located along the north/south trail and along the railroad tracks. The Development Review Committee did comment that if this were to be approved as a PUD, the open space requirements of having well planned, walkable, and connected open space would be required.

City Staff recommends an amendment to the Development Code to allow for a higher maximum height for accessory buildings that have an approved dwelling unit in them. This will allow for rental units above garages not just to the side. Staff also recommends creating an absolute maximum for accessory buildings of 35 feet so they do not tower over existing homes in the neighborhood.

Lehi City is proposing to change several City owned and Alpine School District owned properties from their current General Plan designations to the Public Facilities designation. The City is required to provide public notice to property owners within 300 feet of a change to the General Plan. The map below shows the locations of both existing Public Facility designations (in blue) and proposed (in red).

The Public Facilities designation is meant to ensure and protect the long-term public use of public property. Common uses in the Public Facility District include, but are not limited to parks, trails, public schools, city buildings, city parking lots, and city public utility buildings such as water tanks and power substations. Additionally, changing the designation makes it simpler for both City Staff and residents to identify these facilities on the General Plan and Zoning maps.

The Planning Commission will be holding a public hearing on this item in-person on May 27^th at 7 pm at City Hall.
