Steven Lehmitz serves as a planner for Eagle Mountain City, as recorded in city public hearing notices from August and October of 2026. Residents encounter his work through the Planning Commission, where he acts as the staff point of contact for various development and municipal code matters.
In an August 13, 2026, notice, Lehmitz was identified as the staff point of contact for two specific items scheduled for a Planning Commission hearing on August 25, 2026. The first item involved the Gateway Park Plat 3 - Preliminary Plat, which is intended for industrial and business park development and is located north of Cory B Wride Memorial Highway and west of Mt Airey Drive. The second item was the Spring Run Plaza Lot 1, a proposed multi-tenant commercial building site plan located on the northeast corner of Spring Run Parkway and Cory B Wride Memorial Highway, east of Walmart. Lehmitz was also listed as the staff point of contact for the Spring Run Plaza Lot 2, which is a similar multi-tenant commercial building site plan located in the same general area as Lot 1.
Lehmitz's role as a point of contact for city planning continues into the fall of 2026. According to a notice published on October 14, 2026, Lehmitz is the staff point of contact for a review of a proposed code amendment to EMMC 17.65.080. This specific amendment concerns Greenhouse/Farm Products Home Business and seeks to establish standards for home businesses that sell farm and other closely related products. This hearing was scheduled for October 27, 2026.
Furthermore, a notice published on October 28, 2026, lists Lehmitz as the staff point of contact for a hearing regarding the Wilson Alternative Animal Management Plan. This matter involves a Planning Commission review of a proposed alternative animal management plan that would allow up to two horses at 9022 N. Alexis Lane. This hearing is scheduled to take place on November 10, 2026.
As a planner, Lehmitz's involvement spans a wide variety of municipal interests, from industrial and commercial developments like the Gateway Park and Spring Run Plaza projects to residential-adjacent matters such as animal management plans and agricultural home business standards. His work ensures that the Planning Commission has a designated staff liaison for complex regulatory and developmental changes within the city. These meetings provide a venue for public comments on the items he is assigned to oversee, allowing for community input on how the city manages its growth and land use through various municipal code amendments and preliminary plats.
