Denied · 3-1
Tabled months earlier for a development agreement that never materialized. Applicant Larry Myler proposed commercial along 500 East with residential on the remaining 4.3 acres, saying the land is in an opportunity zone and he paid a price that doesn't work for commercial alone. Mayor Frost said the city is eroding commercial land for housing; Hunter wanted more than 2 commercial acres lined up with the Deseret Industries property; Taylor opposed more high-density housing; Carroll wanted substantial commercial. Barnes called it a property-rights issue.
