The Morgan County Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on Thursday, November 5, 2026, to consider proposed amendments to Chapter 155 of the Morgan County Code. According to an October 26 notice, the meeting will address changes to land use notice requirements and procedures.
The proposed amendments affect several sections of the Morgan County Code. These include updates to general plan public hearing notification requirements under § 155.029 and clarifications regarding postponement and continuation procedures in § 155.031. Additionally, § 155.032 involves updates to notification methods, recipients, deadlines, public posting requirements, and procedures for continued hearings.
Other proposed changes include § 155.444 and § 155.445, which seek to clarify hearing requirements, objection deadlines, and notification procedures for subdivision plat amendments. The amendments also address § 155.515, regarding public notice and property posting for wireless telecommunication facilities, and § 155.534, which clarifies Planning Commission review and notice requirements for certain development agreements.
The proposed changes are intended to align county notification procedures with applicable Utah law. The amendments also aim to eliminate unnecessary newspaper publication requirements, establish consistent notice procedures for land use matters, and clarify the distinction between continued application consideration and continued public hearings.
The hearing is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. at the Morgan County Commission Chambers located at 48 West Young Street, Morgan, Utah 84050.
