Electronic Meeting
Planning Commission Chairman 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.

Centennial Village Project Presentation
Mike Wilcox introduced this item to Planning Commission.
Jon Lee introduced Simon Rucinski.
Simon Rucinski said the developer for this project hopes to bring in a number of high end
auto manufacturers as dealerships into the ground level along Monroe Street and 10080
South.
Jon Lee said the intent of the overall design was to create jewel boxes throughout the
ground level of the project and treat it like a museum where you could also buy the
artwork.
Jeff Lovell asked about an auto service component.
Jon Lee said that it's fully enclosed inside the garage which is sound proof and away from
the street and that maintenance on these vehicles are very low.
Simon Rucinski said that the space will be designed by a qualified sound engineer to
ensure that noise concerns are taken care of.
Jon Lee proposed two adjustments to footnote 25. He proposed to increase the
maximum area from 20,000 square feet to 25,000 square feet and proposed to add a note
of clarification to include "and sub-grade retail space".
Michael Christopherson asked Mike Wilcox if staff was supportive of applicant's
suggested adjustments.
Mike Wilcox said yes and that he feels it's an important clarification.
James Sorensen also agreed with Mike Wilcox.
Jeff Lovell opened this item to public comment.
Jeff Lovell closed this item to public comment.
Jeff Lovell complimented Mike Wilcox and the applicant for all their work.
Michael Christopherson said he supports the code amendment.

Sego Lily Drive to the north, Monroe Street to the west, 10080 South to the south,
and Centennial Parkway to the east. A maximum area of 25,000 square feet of
ground level and sub grade retail space shall be used for these uses within this

Craig Evans introduced this item to Planning Commission.
Jerron Atkin said he wanted to make sure they're meeting current standards and that he's
comfortable with the staff report.
Jeff Lovell opened this item to public comment.
Steve Wilde wanted to know how this proposal would affect adjacent neighborhoods.
Barbara Erickson asked if the sidewalk will be replaced on Galena or if you would go
straight into the parking lot.
Jeff Lovell closed this item to public comment.
Craig Evans answered Steve Wilde's question by saying that public schools do not need
to follow municipal zoning ordinances since they're governed by state statutes, talked
about the height of the building and the setbacks and answered Barbara Erickson's
question saying there will be a 5 foot sidewalk in front of the lot.
Jerron Atkin also confirmed the sidewalk.
Ron Mortimer confirmed there are sidewalks shown on the plans.
Michael Christopherson said there should be no impact to the adjacent neighborhoods
since all we are doing are combining lots.
Craig Evans said this is essentially a lot line adjustment that's more formalized since it's
being done through a plat versus through an administrative process.
Jeff Lovell asked if we would conduct a site plan review.
Craig Evans said no.
Jeff Lovell said since this is being handled at the state level would the public have a
chance to be involved in any discussions if interested..
Brian McCuistion said to contact Jerron Atkin with comments.
A motion was made by Michael Christopherson, seconded by Jamie Tsandes,
that the Planning Commission determine the preliminary review is complete for
the Edgemont Elementary Subdivision, located at 1085 E. Galena Dr., based on
the findings and subject to the two conditions outlined in the staff report.

Craig Evans introduced this item to Planning Commission.
Tony Calderone said his neighbor has the right of way on the driveway and they've
mutually agreed to change it so the neighbor owns the right of way.
Jeff Lovell opened this item for public comment.
Jeff Lovell closed this item to public comment.
Michael Christopherson said he supports the application and asked if the Planning
Commission could get training on state codes for lot line adjustments.
Craig Evans replied saying the way the code is currently written makes it so that lot line
adjustments have to go through Planning Commission but Mike Wilcox is currently
amending the code to make it an administrative process handled by staff.
A motion was made by Michael Christopherson, seconded by Danny Schoenfeld
that the Planning Commission determine that preliminary review is complete for
the Altawood No. 2 2nd Amended Subdivision, located at 19 S. Altawood Dr. and
23 E. Altawood Ln., based on the findings and subject to the three conditions
outlined in the staff report.
