  1. August 19, 2026 · Planning Commission

    Chipman and Stake Center #2 annexation and PR-3.0 zoning, about 100 W. 700 South

    Recommended for approval · 7-0

    About 24 acres of unincorporated land near 100 West 700 South, including the Chipman parcels, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints property where a meetinghouse is proposed, city-owned land and an extension of 700 South, would be annexed and zoned PR-3.0 (planned residential). Applicants are Devin Chipman, Mike Davey and American Fork City. Patrick O'Brien said the annexation agreement, including a sale of city-owned parcels to Leroy Love and Devin Chipman with right-of-way dedications, is largely settled; the agreement limits development to single-family detached homes with no additional density, though homes may be clustered because of the American Fork River and unusable land east of it. Surrounding land is low-density residential. No one spoke at the hearing. The City Council approved the annexation 5-0 on Sept. 8, according to the American Fork Citizen.

    • Applicants: Devin Chipman, Mike Davey, American Fork City
    • Acres: about 24
    • Current: unincorporated (county) → proposed PR-3.0
    • Use limit: single-family detached homes only, per annexation agreement
    • Includes proposed LDS meetinghouse and 700 South extension
    • Public hearing: no comments
    • Council approved annexation 5-0 Sept. 8 (American Fork Citizen)
    • Related: city land sale for $1.4 million to LeRoy Love and Devin Chipman approved by council Sept. 8 (American Fork Citizen)

    Moved by Commissioner Geoff Dupaix, seconded by Commissioner Claire Oldham. Vote: 7-0

    Chipman and Stake Center Annexation zoning, about 100 W. 700 South (24 acres)

    Pending

    Public hearing and recommendation on zoning for about 24 acres (23.88 on the map) of unincorporated Utah County land proposed for annexation, with PR-3.0 Planned Residential zoning for a planned residential project on the Chipman parcels. The area also includes Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints property where a church is proposed, American Fork City land, and a proposed extension of 700 South, a minor collector on the transportation master plan.

A 10-foot shared-use path along the American Fork River is required by the bike and pedestrian plan. Utility extensions would be paid by development, with master-planned upsizing paid from impact fees. Staff recommended approval on condition all exhibits are provided before the item goes to the City Council.

  3. August 9, 2022 · City Council

    620 South/700 South road cross section (Ordinance 2022-08-34)

    Approved · 3-2

    Adopted a collector cross section with a raised green bike path behind the curb that dips at driveways and no on-street parking. Bunker described several earlier versions; the corridor is planned to continue to 100 East. Taylor sought a parking exception for one resident's home; legal counsel Cherylyn Egner warned against treating one parcel differently, and Bunker said there was no written promise of parking when that property annexed. Fire Chief Brems said it works for fire apparatus.

    • Mayor Frost cast tie-breaking vote

    Moved by Councilmember Carroll, seconded by Councilmember Hunter. Vote: 2-2 tie broken by Mayor Frost voting yes; Councilmembers Barnes and Taylor voted no; Shelton absent

  4. June 21, 2022 · City Council

    620 South/700 South cross section

    Discussed

    City Engineer Rebecca Andrus reviewed the 2020 cross section with a raised protected bike lane and median, which complicates fire access and street sweeping. Members split on raised versus painted lanes; Bunker warned painted lanes invite parking unless posted no-parking. Staff will bring options for built and unbuilt sections.

  5. May 10, 2022 · City Council

    620 South/700 South road cross section amendment

    Tabled · 4-0

    Proposal to remove the concrete curb between the bike lane and travel lane was tabled after concerns that fire trucks' outriggers could not clear raised bike lanes; staff will bring back another cross section.

    Moved by Councilmember Carroll, seconded by Councilmember Hunter. Vote: 4-0; Taylor absent

    620/700 South cross section with cycle track

    Approved · 4-1

    Ordinance 2020-05-25 created the road standard for 620/700 South, the TOD's southern boundary, more than a mile long: no on-street parking, buffered shoulders and raised one-way cycle tracks. Carroll questioned the wide unused space; Barnes and Shelton doubted one-way bike paths would be followed.
