    Southam Industrial land use map amendment, about 300 E. 1700 South

    Approved · 4-0

    Changes the land use designation from Shoreline Protection to Design Industrial. Carroll had 'heartburn' about industrial uses on the shoreline; O'Brien said heavier industrial uses like those to the east are possible. Owner's representative Gavin Winkel said plans are undefined, likely an office with storage yard on a long narrow lot, next to the sewer plant. Neighbor Elizabeth Phelon said the shoreline area is thick with midges, M-1 already allows a gas station, and she plans fishing access off the trail. There is a 400-foot shoreline buffer plus the trail. Shelton asked staff to reconcile land use and zoning maps; Carroll asked for a broader shoreline-protection review. Resolution 2023-11-42R.
