The Springville Planning Commission is scheduled to hold a public hearing on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, to consider several legislative policy decisions ranging from a new city-wide transportation master plan to multiple housing development proposals.
The meeting, which begins at 7:00 p.m., will take place in the Council Chambers at 110 South Main Street and will allow public comment on various zoning and development standards.
Transportation and Public Safety Planning
Transportation and Public Safety Planning
One of the primary items on the agenda is a request from Springville Public Works for a recommendation regarding the approval of the city's Transportation Master Plan. This legislative policy decision would establish the framework for the City's transportation infrastructure and management. Following the commission's recommendation, the final decision will be made by the Springville City Council at a later public meeting.
Additionally, the commission will review an updated Public Safety Impact Fee Facility Plan and Impact Fee Analysis. This request from Springville Public Safety involves legislative policy decisions regarding how impact fees are assessed to new developments within the municipality. As with the other items, the Planning Commission's recommendation will move to the City Council for a final determination.
Westfields Central New Neighborhood Plan Amendments
Westfields Central New Neighborhood Plan Amendments
The commission will also address specific development standard adjustments within the Westfields Central New Neighborhood Plan. Mark Frischknecht has proposed amendments to the Cottage Lot Type standards for the area. These proposed changes aim to adjust development standards for cottage lots to accommodate the construction of cottages on lots featuring atypical dimensions.
This legislative policy decision regarding development standards will be reviewed by the commission before being sent to the City Council for a final vote.
Wood Springs Cottages Development
Wood Springs Cottages Development
Several items submitted by Housing 4 You are set for consideration during the November 10 meeting. The developer has proposed an amendment to the Official Zone Map to apply a Traditional Neighborhood Development (TND) Overlay to three specific parcels located along 1200 West, between Center Street and 130 North.
This zoning amendment would subject the properties to the specific neighborhood planning and development requirements of the TND overlay. In conjunction with the zoning change, Housing 4 You has proposed the adoption of the Wood Springs Cottages New Neighborhood Plan for the same area along 1200 West. This plan would establish the specific neighborhood layout and development standards for the Wood Springs Cottages project under the Traditional Neighborhood Development Overlay.
Furthermore, Housing 4 You is seeking a development agreement with Springville City for the Wood Springs Cottages project. This agreement, if approved, would establish the terms and responsibilities governing the development of the project in accordance with the requirements of the Traditional Neighborhood Development Overlay. All three of these items require a recommendation from the Planning Commission to the City Council for final approval.
