Agenda, item by item
Item 14.B · Development
O'Reilly Auto Parts site plan
Tabled · 4-0
Applicant representative Ryan Forsythe proposed options to screen headlights from Oak Hollow homes, including vinyl extensions to the wall, landscaping or slatted chain link. City Attorney Jeremy Cook said the code puts screening responsibility on the commercial developer. Resident Diana Anderson asked for a taller wall or thick evergreens. Gray and Council Member Carolyn Love suggested withholding the certificate of occupancy until screening is resolved; Council Member Melissa Clark was not comfortable approving without an adequate solution; Council Member Donna Burnham would approve once screening is adequate. The council tabled it to the next meeting.
Item 14.C · Development
Macey's at Market Place site plan
Approved with conditions · 3-1
The plan is for a 58,854-square-foot grocery store on 6.7 acres at Pony Express Parkway and Eagle Mountain Boulevard, with 301 parking stalls (295 required) and a drive-through with about 160 feet of stacking. The Planning Commission recommended approval 4-1 with six conditions on March 23. The applicant asked for an 80-foot flagpole with a 20 by 30 foot flag. Gray suggested about 50 feet; Clark and Burnham supported tall flagpoles in commercial areas; Love wanted a thorough review for precedent and noise. The council approved the plan with updated plans and elevations but excluded the flagpole until the code's height standards are reviewed, and authorized staff to approve a flagpole under standards the council later sets.
- Acres: 6.7
- Building: 58,854 sq ft
- Parking: 301 stalls (295 required)
- Planning Commission: 4-1 recommend approval, 6 conditions
Item 14.D · Subdivision
Silverlake South preliminary plat: park deadline
Approved · 4-0
The October 2019 approval required the neighborhood park before the 300th lot was recorded; 316 units are recorded and plats 28 (74 units), 29 (77) and 30 (65) are ready. Staff recommended requiring the park by Aug. 1, 2021 with no building permits or plat recordings afterward unless it is complete. About $1.7 million is held as a cash bond for the park, and recording the three plats would add about $600,000 to the escrow. Love and Clark preferred a date-based deadline to a lot-count one.

Item 15.A · Zoning
The Pinnacles: general plan map amendment and rezone
Approved with conditions · 4-0
The roughly 161 acres north of Aviator Avenue and west of Brylee Farms were rezoned with the two rows of homes south of the park changed from R3 to R2 plus other changes in the corrected staff report. Gray asked for more R2 units south of the park; Burnham and Love supported the change. Applicant representative Andy Flamm wanted two rows rather than three and to keep a one-acre northwest parcel until the northern commercial land develops. No one spoke at the hearing.
- Acres: about 161
Item 15.B · Development
The Pinnacles: master development plan
Approved with conditions · 4-0
Approved with three conditions: the one-acre parcel next to the MF2 zone is removed from this approval and handled with the northern development; the northern 65 acres are noted as Future Development/Business Campus for a later plan amendment; and any northern amendment must suit the Employment Center/Campus designation.
Item 16.A · Subdivision
Eagle Mountain Business Campus recorded plat amendment
Approved with conditions · 4-0
The amendment creates a city-owned Parcel A, which keeps the Ranches waterfall sign, and two commercial lots of 1.279 acres each with access to Campus Drive. Applicant representative Dan Ford said the agreed price runs through June or July 2021. Gray liked the project but worried about selling below market; Cook said the city is bound by the agreed price during the contract extension. Approved on conditions that the city property purchase closes before recording and the city gets an easement through one lot.
Item 16.B · City code
Street improvement code: seal coat fee (Chapter 15.60)
Approved · 4-0
Zac Hilton said the fee will be collected before plat recording and used for a seal coat applied a year after final acceptance, based on the city's cost at installation. Developers may apply the seal coat themselves with a two-year warranty. Collection begins July 6, 2021.
Item 17.A · Taxes and fees
Consolidated fee schedule: street improvement seal coat fee
Approved · 4-0
The resolution adds the new seal coat fee to the consolidated fee schedule.
Item 14.A · Subdivision
Pole Canyon NPA-11 preliminary plat
Approved with conditions · 4-0
Approved on the consent agenda after Burnham amended condition 4 to withhold certificates of occupancy, not building permits, until the sewer is complete. City Engineer Chris Trusty said the sewer should finish within 30 days. White Hills resident Peggy Hunziker said the annexation agreement required infrastructure before permits and threatened legal action over fees paid.
Item 1.C · Zoning
Sweetwater Industrial Park rezone and general plan amendment (work session)
Discussed
Pete Kane presented a rezone of about 126.6 acres west of Pony Express Parkway and south of Tiffany Lane: about 50.14 acres Industrial with the Sweetwater overlay, 34.6 acres CC and 41.87 acres LMD. The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval March 23. Love supported the overlay but wanted it only on the southern part. Applicant Scot Hazard said reduced standards allow metal buildings and lower costs. No vote.
Item 9 · Contract
Consent agenda: lobby display, lectern, construction management, change orders
Approved · 4-0
The consent agenda included agreements for a City Hall lobby display and a council chambers lectern with timer, bought under a state contract with surplus funds that offset CARES Act-eligible costs, construction management and inspection for Pony Express Phase 5 widening by PEPG Consulting, a Glenmar Ranches Phase B Plat 4 bond release, and change orders for the Facebook water tank (Probuild), the water model rebuild (Psomas) and an Accela software agreement. The minutes give no dollar amounts or vendors for the display and lectern.
