information as follows:
Mr. Ken Milne, developer of Newton Farms Subdivision, is requesting a street
vacation for all of 6655 West at Fuelner Drive (3635 South) The right-of-way
to be vacated was platted as part of the Orchard Hills Phase 2 Subdivision
recorded in 1996.
During the preliminary review of the Newton property – to be known as the
Newton Farm Subdivision, Mr. Milne inquired as to the City’s willingness to
support the eventual vacation of this stub road when the last phase of Newton
Farms was submitted. After reviewing the overall subdivision design for
Newton Farms, the City agreed that vacating this right-of-way would not be
detrimental to the adjacent subdivision to the north and would provide for an
exclusive design with two cul-de-sacs. The vacation would also reduce
problems associated with the grade difference between the Newton property
and Orchard Hills Subdivision.
As part of the vacation, Mr. Milne will be responsible to remove all existing
improvements in the right-of-way and will install formal improvements along
the south side of Fuelner Drive. After discussions with each adjacent property
owner, the developer will be installing full landscaping and an irrigation system
for each property owner.
According to City Ordinance, streets and/or alley vacations shall be reviewed
by the Planning Commission with a recommendation to the City Council.
Mayor Bigelow opened the Public Hearing. There being no one to speak in favor
or opposition, Mayor Bigelow closed the Public Hearing.

B. ACCEPT PUBLIC INPUT REGARDING APPLICATION ZT-1-2021,
FILED BY WEST VALLEY CITY, REQUESTING A ZONE TEXT
CHANGE TO AMEND RESIDENTIAL LANDSCAPING AND
RECREATION SPACE STANDARDS IN TITLE 7 AND 9
Mayor Bigelow informed a public hearing had been advertised for the Regular
Council Meeting scheduled April 13, 2021, in order for the City Council to hear
and consider public comments regarding Application ZT-1-2021, filed by West
Valley City, requesting a Zone Text Change to amend residential landscaping and
recreation space standards in Title 7 and 9.
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included
information as follows:
At the request of the City Council, City staff is proposing an ordinance
amendment to the residential landscaping and recreation space standards in
Titles 7 (Zoning Ordinance) and 9 (Condominium Ordinance). After reviewing
a rezone application for a townhome development and then holding several
discussions in study meetings, the Council asked staff to revisit landscaping and
recreation space standards and to clearly define what is included in recreation
space.
In recent years the City has seen more residential projects where space for
recreation is being provided in ways not previously seen including higher
amounts of indoor space. Accordingly, the change central to this application is
the removal of the term “open space” and its replacement with the term
“recreation space”.
Mayor Bigelow opened the Public Hearing. There being no one to speak in favor
or opposition, Mayor Bigelow closed the Public Hearing.

information as follows:
Back in October of last year, the City initiated an enforcement case on these
properties for several violations. Two of the violations were first, the
properties were being used for a stucco business without a license and
second the business was operating in a zone where the business was not
allowed. If this zone change application is approved, the owners would then
need to apply for a conditional use permit and business license for the stucco
business to bring it into compliance. As part of the conditional use permit,
a 6’ tall masonry wall will be required along the west, south, and east sides
of the property. If this zone change application is denied, the stucco business
will need to be removed from the site.
Over the last 10 years or so, the south side of Gates Avenue has gradually
begun to transition from residential or vacant property to commercial or
industrial uses. Along 7200 W, 7-11 was constructed in 2012 and a
shop/storage building at 7079 W Gates Avenue was built in 2018. All of the
property on the north side of Gates Avenue is zoned M. There are three
homes remaining on the south side of Gates Avenue.
Mayor Bigelow opened the Public Hearing. There being no one to speak in favor

ACTION: RESOLUTION NO. 21-46, AUTHORIZE THE CITY TO ENTER
INTO A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH EMANUEL AND
LETICIA MORENO FOR APPROXIMATELY 0.88 ACRES OF
PROPERTY LOCATED AT APPROXIMATELY 7041 AND 7055 WEST
GATES AVENUE
Mayor Bigelow discussed proposed Resolution 21-46 that would authorize the City
to enter into a Development Agreement with Emanuel and Leticia Moreno for
approximately 0.88 acres of property located at approximately 7041 and 7055 West
Gates Avenue.
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included
information as follows:
Emanuel and Leticia Moreno have submitted a rezone application (Z-1-
2021) to change two properties totaling 0.88 acres at 7041 and 7055 W
Gates Avenue from A (agriculture, minimum lot size ½ acre) to M
(manufacturing). Back in October of last year, the City initiated an
enforcement case on these properties for several violations. Two of the
violations were first, the properties were being used for a stucco business
without a license and second the business was operating in a zone where
the business was not allowed. Without the zone change, the stucco
business would need to be removed from the site.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the zone change
subject to a development agreement. The development agreement
standards are intended to minimize the impact of the stucco business on
neighboring residential properties. The standards include limitations on
the hours of operation, requiring compliance with the M (manufacturing)
zone standards, and limiting the uses that would be allowed on the subject
property.
Upon inquiry by Mayor Bigelow there were no further questions from members of

RESOLUTION 21-47: AUTHORIZE THE CITY TO ENTER INTO A
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH SONRISE BAPTIST CHURCH FOR
APPROXIMATELY 5.05 ACRES OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT
APPROXIMATELY 3550 SOUTH 4400 WEST
Mayor Bigelow discussed proposed Resolution 21-47 that would authorize the City to enter
into a Development Agreement with Sonrise Baptist Church for approximately 5.05 Acres of
property located at approximately 3550 South 4400 West.
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as
follows:
The Utah Legislature recently passed HB 98 that, among other things, removed
cities’ ability to regulate most building design standards for townhomes where no
development agreement exists. The Sonrise Baptist Church property at 3550 South
4400 West is zoned RM (multiple unit dwelling residential) with a General Plan
designation of medium density residential (7 to 12 units/acre). The current zoning
and General Plan designation would allow for townhomes.
Given the recent adoption of HB 98, staff initiated a zone change on the Sonrise
Baptist Church property as it would be able to be developed as townhomes without
design standards once HB 98 becomes effective. After discussing the issue with
Pastor Thompson with the Sonrise Baptist Church, he is willing to enter into a
development agreement to follow the City’s design standards. As such, City staff is
dropping the Sonrise Baptist Church property from the zone change application.

follows:
West Valley City has received federal Transportation Alternatives Program funds
to assist with the design and construction of Cross Towne Trail between 2700 West

RESOLUTION 21-51: APPROVE THE PURCHASE OF WETLAND
MITIGATION CREDITS FROM MACHINE LAKE WETLAND MITIGATION
BANK
Mayor Bigelow discussed proposed Resolution 21-51 that would approve the purchase of
Wetland Mitigation Credits from Machine Lake Wetland Mitigation Bank.
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as
follows:
The next phase of 2540 South will impact wetlands regulated under Section 404 of
the Clean Water Act and requires a permit to be issued from the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers. The project will necessitate the filling of 0.46 acres of Saline Wet
Meadow. To comply with federal law and mitigate the impact of the loss of these
wetlands, West Valley City will purchase mitigation credits from the Machine Lake
Wetland Mitigation Bank which is located west of Brigham City.
The Army Corps of Engineers requires a 2:1 mitigation ratio when the impact area
and mitigation site are in different watersheds. There currently isn’t a wetland
mitigation bank within the watershed of this project that would bring the ratio down
to 1:1. As a result, this project will be required to obtain 0.92 credits of Saline Wet
Meadow.
West Valley City currently has 0.07 credits of Saline Wet Meadow with Machine
Lake Wetland Mitigation Bank. The City will use those credits and purchase the
remaining 0.85 credits for a cost of $55,250.00.
