The Tooele City Planning Commission voted 7-0 on Oct. 28 to approve a conditional use permit for a permanent clamshell-style stage in City Park, in the open space near the Pratt Aquatic Center. The Parks and Recreation Department applied. The stage would replace the trailer-mounted stage the city now uses for events including Fridays on Vine and the Fourth of July. [1][2]
No one spoke at the public hearing. The permit carries two conditions: stage lighting must be aimed to avoid spilling onto neighbors, and the Parks Department must submit a revised site plan showing the distance to the aquatic center. [1][2]
In a report to the commission, City Council Member Ed Hansen said the council had approved a change to a water depletion rate and had put the Walmart drone proposal on hold for now, citing a lack of information, and expected it to return. The commission also approved its Oct. 14 minutes, 7-0. [1][2]
