Holbrook Farms Area Plan amendment, Hudson Way and Redwood Road (Ordinance 12-2023)
Approved with conditions · 3-2
Ivory Development's Brad Mackay said the amendment consolidates residential units on the east side and keeps the west side industrial, and would add guaranteed commercial space the current plan lacks. Council members discussed whether moving the units conflicts with terms tied to an earlier density agreement for the area; Mackay said UDOT's purchase of Ivory land for the Mountain View Corridor was how density was compensated. The number of units does not increase, but their location and possibly intensity change. Members raised a traffic study and concerns about adding units to a dense area, and noted that a commercial guarantee would be a benefit. A motion to deny, with findings that the amendment did not conform to the General Plan, failed 2-3. A second motion to approve, noting the Planning Commission's recommendation and requiring a traffic study at the next step, passed 3-2.
- Applicant: Ivory Development
- Condition: traffic study required at the next step
- Planning Commission recommended approval

Ordinance 09-2025: Holbrook Farms area plan amendment and concept plan, about 2100 North Miller Campus Drive
Denied · 3-1
Spencer Moffat of Boyer Company sought a residential overlay on a 7.15-acre parcel between Primary Children's Hospital and a McDonald's, saying it is hard to develop commercially and residential would be an option if commercial tenants cannot be found. Members were concerned about losing commercial land and unclear ERU allocation. The council denied the amendment.
