The Daniel Planning Commission voted May 20 to recommend denial to the Town Council of a property-owner-initiated request to rezone Parcel 20-4532 from residential to commercial.
"My name is Chase Chamberlain. I'm here from the Gordon Law Group representing John Coll, the owner of the property located at 1680 West 3000 South in Daniel," attorney Chase Chamberlain told the commission, arguing that pending airport expansion and FAA compatibility make residential use impractical and that neighboring properties received commercial rezoning that increased value.
Commissioners and residents raised spot-zoning concerns and asked for documentation about Heber City’s airport overlay and the scope and timing of airport acquisition. Commissioners noted that the parcel sits isolated amid residential lots and that rezoning could create a strip of commercial use extending up 3000 South in a way that conflicts with the town’s general plan.
After discussion and public comment, a motion to recommend denial of the rezoning carried on a recorded voice vote.
Why it matters: The recommendation sends the applicant to the Town Council for final action and reflects commission concern about spot zoning and preserving the town’s adopted land-use plan in the face of possible long-term airport expansion.
Next steps: The commission’s recommendation will be forwarded to the Town Council for consideration; the applicant may pursue council-level review or other remedies.
