Consultation has concluded

The applicant wants to build a 20-lot residential subdivision located at 1700 West 1500 North.

The preliminary subdivision plan consists of 20 single family lots on a total of 13.06 acres. The lots range in size from 18,713 to 36,054 square feet. There is an overall density of 1.53 units per acre for this subdivision which meets the R-1-22 zoning maximum of 1.75 units per acre.

This subdivision varies from the typical standards set forth in Chapter 5 of the Lehi City Development Code because one lot of bonus density was added in lieu of reimbursement for road widening along 1700 West and 1500 North. That density bonus was utilized with reduced frontages and lot sizes. A few of the lots do not meet the 100-foot frontage requirement or 22,000 square foot lot size requirement. However, the subdivision still conforms to Code by not exceeding the overall density allowance. This density bonus was part of the concept plan approval from September 2021.

No significant changes have been made to the plans since concept approval in terms of layout. The proposed preliminary subdivision plans show two road stubs to the south to provide for future connectivity. Access to the subdivision is currently provided on both 1500 North and 1700 West.

The applicant has been allowed exceptions to the standard requirements to develop in the R-1-22 zone as part of density in lieu of reimbursement agreement, and as such they are an “as of right development”, meaning that the Planning Commission cannot deny this project. However, the Commission should review in case staff missed any requirements in their review. The Commission may also make suggestions to improve the subdivision or reduce the impact on the existing neighborhood based on public input.
