Electronic Meeting
Planning Commission Statement
In accordance with, Utah Code 52-4-207(4) Open and Public Meeting Act, I have determined that to protect the
health and welfare of Sandy citizens, an in person Planning Commission meeting, including attendance by the
public and the Planning Commission is not practical or prudent.
Considering the continued rise of COVID-19 case counts in Utah, meeting in an anchor location presents
substantial risk to the health and safety of those in attendance because physical distancing measures may be
difficult to maintain in the Sandy City Council Chambers.
The Center for Disease Control states that COVID-19 is easily spread from person to person between people who
are in close contact with one another. The spread is through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs,
sneezes or talks and may be spread by people who are non-symptomatic.
It is my intent to safeguard the lives of Sandy residents, business owners, employees and commission members by
meeting remotely through electronic means without an anchor location.
Community Development staff are hereby authorized and directed to include a copy of the above notice with each
Planning Commission agenda.
