Public Hearing Items: I.1. Resolution R2924-04, Authorizing the Mayor to sign the First Amendment to a Development Agreement, dated July 20, 2021, pertaining to Parcel No. 27-14-102- 016-000. (By Director of Planning, Steven Schaefermeyer) Director Schaefermeyer reviewed background information from the Council Report. Mayor Ramsey opened the public hearing for comments; there were no comments and the hearing was closed. Council Member Shelton asked to confirm that Phase 1 was originally approved with the 7 foot setbacks, but was then amended in the future. Director Schaefermeyer responded that is correct, that there was some miscommunication with those who entitled Phase 2. When the development agreement was put together for Phase 2, that amendment was not looked at, only the original development agreement. Council Member Johnson asked if that was standard, not to take the amended portions and include them in future agreements. Director Schaefermeyer responded that there was no entitlement given with Phase 1 for the other piece of property, so that original development agreement was only used as a reference, not necessarily as a guide. There were many changes with Hidden Village with threats of lawsuits, many private roads that became public, etc. Council Member Harris motioned to approve Resolution R2024-04, Authorizing the Mayor to sign the First Amendment to a Development Agreement. Council Member McGuire seconded the motion. South Jordan City 5 City Council Meeting January 16, 2024 Roll Call Vote Yes – Council Member Harris Yes – Council Member McGuire Yes – Council Member Shelton Yes – Council Member Johnson Absent – Council Member Zander Vote was 4-0 in favor. Council Member Zander being absent from the vote. I.2. Resolution R2024-05, Amending the Transportation Master Plan for South Jordan City. (By Director of Engineering, Brad Klavano) Director Klavano reviewed background information from the Council Report. Mayor Ramsey opened the public hearing for comments; there were no comments and the hearing was closed. Council Member McGuire acknowledged that this tackles the annexed area, but he was curious about the land owned by Mr. Young since he wants to cross Bacchus as well, and whether an alignment will be needed for that. Director Klavano responded no, since the city doesn’t have much information from that project yet. He also believes that Mr. Young is negotiating with UDOT for the right-of-way in that area. Council Member McGuire motioned to approve Resolution R2024-05, Amending the Transportation Master Plan for South Jordan City. Council Member Shelton seconded the motion. Roll Call Vote Yes – Council Member Harris Yes – Council Member McGuire Yes – Council Member Shelton Yes – Council Member Johnson Absent – Council Member Zander Vote was 4-0 in favor. Council Member Zander being absent from the vote. I.3. Zoning Ordinance 2024-01-Z, Rezoning property, generally located at 2560 West 10950 South, from the A-5 (Agriculture) Zone to the R-1.8 (Residential) Zone; Robbie Pope (Applicant). (By Director of Planning, Steven Schaefermeyer) Director Schaefermeyer reviewed background information from the Council Report. South Jordan City 6 City Council Meeting January 16, 2024 Council Member Johnson shared her concerns about setting a precedent regarding “spot zoning,” doing just a single lot. Salt Lake City had a real problem with that, having to go back and clean it all up at a later date. Director Schaefermeyer explained his understanding of spot zoning, and how this lot was different since this lot is joining the larger R-1.8 zone around it. Council Member Johnson asked if it was subdivisions in that same A-5 zone. Director Schaefermeyer explained that the entire street has both R-1.8 zoning and A-5 zoning, and his understanding is that this lot was never a part of the surrounding subdivisions. Attorney Loose noted that from a spot zoning legal perspective, he thinks this sort of zoning would be completely defensible since it adjoins the zone being requested on 3 out of the 4 sides. Council Member Johnson shared that she expects to see more of these in the same neighborhood. Attorney Loose noted that is makes sense on the A-5 lots since none of the lots are actually 5 acres. This was most likely a holding zone and was subdivided within that holding zone to smaller lots without being rezoned to the more appropriate zone, the R-1.8, for these sized lots. Council Member Johnson believes that the lots should be rezoned to that more appropriate R-1.8 zone. Attorney Loose noted that there isn’t an application for that. However, the City Council on its own motion, with proper notice, could do that, but it’s not the city’s typical practice to do that to other people’s property unless requested. If the City Council wanted the city to entertain that, they could notify all the neighbors of the potential changes. Council Member Shelton motioned to approve Zoning Ordinance 2024-01-Z, Rezoning Property from the A-5 Zone to the R-1.8 Zone. Council Member Harris seconded the motion. Roll Call Vote Yes – Council Member Harris Yes – Council Member McGuire Yes – Council Member Shelton Yes – Council Member Johnson Absent – Council Member Zander Vote was 4-0 in favor. Council Member Zander being absent from the vote. I.4. Ordinance 2024-02, Amending section 17.130.050 (Planned Development Floating Zone) of the South Jordan City Municipal Code to add a limit for residential density. (By Director of Planning, Steven Schaefermeyer) South Jordan City 7 City Council Meeting January 16, 2024 Director Schaefermeyer reviewed background information from the Council Report. Mayor Ramsey opened the public hearing for comments; there were no comments and the hearing was closed. She then asked if this had any impact on HTRZ Zones. Director Schaefermeyer responded that was correct. Council Member Johnson asked how the eight (8) unit max was determined. Director Schaefermeyer responded that it was based on prior approvals from this Council. Council Member Shelton discussed how density was one of the big issues he discussed during his first and second campaign for office. The mixed-use wasn’t welcomed because of the way it had been used in the city, and it seems like very little commercial was attached to those projects as they were mostly residential density. When the council chose to throw out a bunch of tools to include the mixed-use, it seemed like there needed to be some kind of tool that allowed for more density, but also allowed the council to have much more control in the process. Council Member Shelton motioned to approve Ordinance 2024-02, Amending above Sections of the South Jordan City Municipal Code. Council Member McGuire seconded the motion. Roll Call Vote Yes – Council Member Harris Yes – Council Member McGuire Yes – Council Member Shelton Yes – Council Member Johnson Absent – Council Member Zander Vote was 4-0 in favor.

(By Director of Planning, Steven Schaefermeyer) Director Schaefermeyer reviewed background information from the Council Report. Mayor Ramsey invited the applicant forward to speak. John Warnick (Applicant) – confirmed the information in the Council Report. Mayor Ramsey opened the public hearing for comments; there were no comments and the hearing was closed. Council Member Johnson motioned to approve Ordinance 2024-03, Vacating a segment of Flying Fish Drive between Lake Avenue and Meadow Grass Drive. Council Member Shelton seconded the motion. South Jordan City 8 City Council Meeting January 16, 2024 Roll Call Vote Yes – Council Member Harris Yes – Council Member McGuire Yes – Council Member Shelton Yes – Council Member Johnson Absent – Council Member Zander Vote was 4-0 in favor.
