West Valley City council and Planning Commission agree to keep the two-acre Estate Residential minimum in general plan land use talks
In an electronic special session on Oct. 6, the West Valley City Council and Planning Commission reviewed the consultant's preliminary Future Land Use Map for the general plan update. Members agreed to keep the two-acre minimum for the Estate Residential designation and asked the consultant to test infill sites. The consultant, Houseal Lavigne, recommended phasing out the Rural Residential designation in the Chesterfield area in favor of low-density, moderate-density and multi-unit residential categories, with no requirement that owners redevelop. Council members questioned how the plan fits the recent Station Area Plans and said higher density needs nearby retail and services. No votes were taken. These are draft minutes.
