The agenda includes several legislative items requiring public hearing, consideration, and recommendation.

Nathan Andersen is the applicant for this request, with Ellen Oakman serving as the staff presenter.

A second map amendment involves the same 1.03-acre property at 14595 South 1515 West. This proposal seeks to change the zoning from R-1 Residential to R-4 Residential with an Infill Overlay. This request is also being presented by staff member Ellen Oakman on behalf of applicant Nathan Andersen.

The commission will also consider a proposed text amendment regarding Energetic Materials Operations. This legislative action involves amending Chapter 11.20 of the Bluffdale City Code to create a new definition for these operations, enacting Section 11.160.330 to outline business requirements, and amending Section 11.350.020 to allow such operations as a permitted use in the Light Industrial (I-1) Zone. Zach Williams is the applicant for this matter, with Caitlyn Tubbs serving as the staff presenter.
