The Town of Brighton Planning Commission is scheduled to hold a business meeting and public hearing on Nov. 18, 2026, according to a notice published Oct. 29. The meeting will begin at 6:00 PM at 7688 South Big Cottonwood Canyon Road in Brighton, Utah.
The scheduled agenda includes a business meeting to approve the minutes from the Oct. 21, 2026, Planning Commission Meeting. The commission will also address other business items as needed.
A public hearing is scheduled for item OAM2026-001681, which is a continuation of a discussion from the Oct. 21, 2026, meeting. This hearing involves a new Manual of Engineering Standards, Specifications, and Plans, presented by Richard Stephens.
The proposed Manual of Engineering Standards, Specifications, and Plans aims to establish a unified and modern framework for both public and private infrastructure development within the city. The manual is intended to update technical specifications to ensure that future designs for utilities, roads, drainage, and public spaces prioritize environmental sustainability, long-term durability, and safety.
According to the notice, adopting these standards is intended to align physical growth with the city's long-term master plan. The manual serves as a regulatory tool to provide predictable guidelines for developers and engineers, which may help reduce future municipal maintenance costs and protect public investments.
The meeting will offer electronic and telephonic participation via Microsoft Teams. Individuals requiring reasonable accommodations for qualified disabilities may request them from Wendy Gurr with five working days' notice.
