The Richfield City Council has announced a public hearing for July 14, 2026, to consider a request to rezone a manufacturing property to residential use. This upcoming session follows a previous May hearing regarding a large-scale acreage rezoning in the city.
Manufacturing to Residential Transition
A public hearing is scheduled to take place at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, July 14, 2026, in the council chambers located at 75 East Center, Richfield, Utah. The meeting will focus on a proposed zone change submitted by applicant Marlo Adams.
According to a public notice published by Richfield City, the proposal involves property located at approximately 55 E 100 N, identified as parcel 1-37-64. The request seeks to change the designation of the .40-acre site from its current M-D manufacturing and distributing zone to an RM-11 residential zone.
Previous May Rezoning Request
This July hearing follows a similar process held earlier this year. At a public hearing conducted on Tuesday, May 26, 2026, the Richfield City Council met to accept comments regarding a different rezoning application.
That May application, submitted by Cory Winkle, sought to change the zoning for property situated at approximately 700 E and 1170 N. The request involved parcels 1-2-109 and 1-2-92, totaling 8.62 acres of land. The proposed change would have transitioned the acreage from its existing RR-1 designation to R1-10.
History of City Land Use
The recent focus on zoning changes is part of a broader history of land use adjustments managed by the Richfield City Council. Public records from the city archive various past notices regarding similar legislative actions.
Historical records from February 2021 show that the council held several public hearings during that period to address different property rezonings, including requests for College Avenue and 1080 South. Other administrative actions listed in city archives include lot splits, annexation notices, and amendments to the Municipal Building Authority agenda.
Public Access to Notices
Both recent and upcoming public notices were published by David Anderson, the Richfield City Deputy Recorder. These notices were made available to the public through the Utah Public Meeting Notice Website and the official Richfield City website.
The July 14 hearing remains the next primary opportunity for community members to voice support or opposition regarding the proposed shift from manufacturing use to residential development at the 55 E 100 N location.
