Commission approves rezoning of parcels near 8000 South from RA-5 to NC-1

The Utah County Commission voted May 29 to approve a rezoning request for parcels off 8000 South, changing the zoning designation from RA-5 to NC-1 for the properties presented.

Greg Robinson of Community Development summarized the request as an owner-initiated rezone that included two parcels requested by the owner; staff recommended including the intervening parcel to avoid a gap in zoning. "This is a rezone of a property that's off of 8000 South in Unincorporated Utah County from the RA 5 zone to the NC 1 zone," Robinson said. He added that adjacent property owners had appeared and that a related rezoning application would likely come forward to the Planning Commission next month.

Robinson said the Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the rezoning. A commissioner moved to approve item 14; another commissioner seconded, the Chair called for the vote, and audible "Aye" responses were recorded before the Chair confirmed the motion passed.

The transcript does not provide a full roll-call; the record captures vocal "Aye" responses and the Chair's confirmation that the motion passed. Staff said they had included the intervening parcel at staff's recommendation to maintain consistent zoning across the corridor; Robinson indicated the property owners are supporting a subsequent related request as well.
