The West Valley City Council on Dec. 9 approved a set of actions clearing the way for an eight‑lot subdivision at 3801 South 6400 West.
The council passed Ordinance 25‑38 to amend the general plan from large‑lot residential (2–3 units/acre) to low‑density residential (3–4 units/acre) and Ordinance 25‑39 to rezone the property from A‑2 agricultural to R‑1‑8 single‑unit dwellings (minimum 8,000 square‑foot lots). Both ordinances passed unanimously.
Developer Jake Hone, representing Grow Development, told the council the Burke family will retain one home on the site while seven new single‑family lots will be created; Hone said lots will be approximately 8,000 square feet and some homes will include third‑car garages and other options.
Council then considered Resolution 25‑180, the development agreement with Grow Development covering roughly 2.44 acres. Council member Whetstone suggested allowing some lots a two‑car garage option rather than requiring three‑car garages on every lot; after discussion the motion to adopt the development agreement with that flexibility passed by majority, with Council member Harmon recorded as the lone no vote.
Council members said they want to protect neighborhood expectations while allowing infill housing options. The council did not identify additional conditions beyond the discussed garage flexibility; the development agreement terms and implementation timing were not specified in detail during the public meeting.
The council opened and closed a public hearing on the application before voting; nearby residents raised concerns about Lot 5’s lack of street frontage and urged that the zoning remain R‑1‑8 (comments were recorded during the hearing). The council’s vote completes the local approvals necessary to proceed with the subdivision under city code.
The council did not announce a construction start date; final platting, building permits and any required engineering approvals remain part of the developer’s next steps.
