Station area plan exception resolution (briefing)
Discussed
Planning Director Nick Norris explained that Utah law requires station area plans for fixed-guideway transit stations in or within a half mile of the city, with exceptions when it is impracticable. The proposed resolution would support an exception for six stations: Airport, Stadium, Central Campus, Fort Douglas, University of Utah Medical Center and River Trail (in West Valley City, with part of its half-mile radius in Salt Lake City). Council action was tentatively set for Nov. 18.
