    Resolution 2025-15: amendment to the Royal Holladay Hills site development master plan

    Approved · 5-0

    Council Member Fotheringham said the changes do not alter entitlements and only reorganize approved uses. Mayor Dahle supported them if development stays within designated blocks and does not increase height, and wanted the Planning Commission to judge parking adequacy.

    Moved by Council Member Paul Fotheringham, seconded by Council Member Drew Quinn. Vote: 5-0

  4. November 20, 2025 · City Council

    Work meeting: wildfire overlay and master plan signs

    Discussed

    Fire authority staff explained the scoring. Council Member Fotheringham supported I-215 as the initial boundary; Council Member Brewer would include the west side only if it changes UDOT action. The city attorney declined to advise on whether the rules affect new construction because of a personal property interest near the boundary; other counsel will answer. On the sign amendment, the applicant asked for a 15-foot setback on Highland Drive instead of 20 because of a canal easement; the attorney said the council can approve it without returning to the commission.
