Item 9 · General plan
Lakeview Land and Rock general plan amendment, 12.81 acres near 600 East 600 South (Ordinance 19-2021)
Denied · 4-0
Cole Peck, for the applicant, wanted to annex the property and park trucks and equipment there, offering a fence and buffer and noting even low-density housing would raise traffic, water and sewer demand; other companies might also park there. Eight speakers supported the change, citing less traffic than homes and a need to keep such a business in Lehi. Seven opposed or preferred housing, worried about what other uses light industrial zoning would allow, safety and vehicles entering and leaving. Applicant Clay Peck said the owners have property rights but want to be good neighbors. Council Member Katie Koivisto said the request did not merit an amendment, and the council discussed whether another zone would fit better; Mayor Mark Johnson suggested a development agreement. The council unanimously denied the change from low density residential to light industrial. Community Development Director Kim Struthers said the applicant could seek a different zone or proposal.
