    Spring Meadow Villas preliminary PRD subdivision, 71 lots at 1630 S. 500 East

    Recommended for approval · 5-0

    Windy City Development sought review of a 71-lot planned residential development on R-1-22 and A-5 land near the Utah Lake shoreline. Lots would range from 9,036 to 22,181 square feet, with larger lots to the south. The council approved the concept in May with a 9-lot density bonus in place of city reimbursement for right-of-way dedication, extra open space and a shared-use path in the power line corridor. The A-5 portion stays preserved for the shoreline, a future trail and the Pony Express Parkway. Chance and Frank Collin raised concerns about fencing next to their family's farm, drainage, flooding, traffic, wetlands and right-of-way for the Pony Express Parkway extension. City staffer Brad Kenison said the parkway is a separately funded road in conceptual design and environmental review. Trane said the developer would work with the Collins and that basements are not planned unless a land drain is provided. The commission unanimously recommended approval.
