The Mount Pleasant Planning Commission is scheduled to meet on Sept. 15, 2026, to address multiple agenda items, according to a Sept. 10 notice. The meeting is set to begin at 12:00 PM at 115 West Main in Mount Pleasant.
The meeting agenda includes three public hearings. One hearing involves a request for a Planned Unit Development (PUD) Overlay Zone Change for approximately 60.64 acres located south of Aspen Village Mobile Home Park, between 300 South to 700 South and 700 East to 900 East.
A second hearing will consider an amendment to the Mount Pleasant City Land Use Ordinance to add Community Center, Meeting Hall, Civic Center, or Convention Hall as a conditional use within the Public Facility (PF) Zone. This amendment would allow these facilities to be publicly or privately owned and operated, with a minimum building size of 5,000 square feet.
A third hearing will address an amendment to the Residential Agricultural (R-A) Zone Ordinance to allow horseback riding lessons or instruction as a conditional use. This amendment would establish standards for off-street parking, animal allowances, residential screening, liability insurance, hours of operation, outdoor lighting, trailers and loading, and property maintenance.
Other items on the agenda include a lot split request by Steve Despain at 1762 W. Lindberg Lane. The commission will also discuss and potentially recommend to the City Council regarding the PUD Overlay Zone, the Public Facility Zone ordinance amendment, and the horseback riding lessons amendment.
Public participation is permitted during the meeting, with comments limited to three minutes per person. For those requiring disability accommodations, David Oxman can be contacted at 435-462-2456 at least 24 hours before the meeting.
