The Price City Planning and Zoning Commission on Jan. 12 opened a public hearing on proposed 2026 updates to the city’s Land Use Management and Development Code and approved two resolutions forwarding the changes to the City Council.
During the meeting the commission heard staff summarize three retreat topics that informed the draft updates: a private development management (PUD) plan requirement that appears across multiple code sections, reconsideration of parking and assembly conditions for certain uses, and proposed notification requirements for multifamily projects that staff said were not forwarded in this round. "We went over 3 topics of retreat… 1 was PUD… The other 1 had to do with the conditions… additional parking of visitors," planning staff said during the hearing.
The commission voted to approve Resolution 2026-1 PZ, a recommendation to the Price City Council to adopt the 2026 updates to the 2008 code. Immediately afterward the body approved Resolution 2026-2 PZ, a statement affirming compliance with state law on code of conduct and conflict-of-interest disclosures.
Both votes were taken by voice and recorded as passing without recorded roll-call tallies in the transcript. The commission also discussed process improvements for reviewing the consolidated code, including adding a table of contents and hyperlinks to help commissioners and the public navigate chapters.
The public hearing was opened at 5:03 p.m. and closed at 5:06 p.m.; staff indicated the items had been discussed previously at a retreat and summarized which proposed changes were forwarded to the commission. The resolutions were described on the record by the chair and moved and seconded before the chair announced that each resolution passed.
Next steps indicated in the meeting: the commission forwarded the recommendation (Resolution 2026-1 PZ) to the Price City Council for further action and adopted the compliance statement (Resolution 2026-2 PZ) on the record. The transcript does not include a City Council action or an effective date for code changes.
