The Smithfield City Council will meet for a regularly scheduled meeting on Wednesday, Oct. 14, 2026, according to a public notice published Oct. 7. The meeting is scheduled to begin at 6:00 PM at 96 South Main in Smithfield.

The agenda includes several rezoning requests submitted by Elk Ridge Subdivision, LLC. The council will discuss and may vote on Ordinance 2026-15, which seeks to rezone a 5.21-acre Cache County Parcel Number 08-048-0014 from A-10 (Agricultural 10-Acre) to A-5 (Agricultural 5-Acre). This parcel is located at approximately 1350 East 120 South.

Additionally, the council will consider Ordinance 2026-16 regarding the rezoning of six Cache County Parcel Numbers (08-192-0067 through 08-192-0072). These parcels, located approximately between 56 to 120 South on 1300 East, totaling roughly 1.85 acres, are currently zoned A-10 and R-1-12. The proposed ordinance seeks to rezone them all to R-1-12 (Single Family Residential 12,000 Square Feet).

The meeting will feature public hearings for two municipal code amendments. One hearing concerns Ordinance 2026-19, which would amend Title 15 of the Smithfield City Municipal Code by adding Section 15.44.140, titled Utility Agreement, to the chapter regarding Tenant/Landlord Responsibilities.

A second public hearing is scheduled for Ordinance 2026-20, which involves amending Title 10, Chapter 10.08, Section 10.08.110 regarding Parking for Certain Purposes Prohibited.

Other items on the agenda include the approval of city council meeting minutes from Sept. 9, 2026, and Sept. 23, 2026. The council will also hold a closed meeting for a strategy session regarding the purchase, exchange, or lease of real property under Utah Code Annotated 52-4-205 (1) (d). Following this, there will be a discussion and possible vote to authorize City Manager Justin Lewis to negotiate the purchase of real property.

Public input is accepted for all agenda items. The meeting will be streamed on the Smithfield Utah YouTube channel. Individuals requiring special accommodations for the meeting should contact the City Recorder at (435) 792-7997 at least three days before the meeting date.
