The Brigham City Planning Commission met on July 21, 2026, to review multiple applications, including a zoning and annexation proposal involving land on 1000 West between Highway 13 and 1500 North, according to meeting minutes published August 5.
During the meeting, the Commission held a public hearing regarding Application #26-054, which involves an annexation petition and zoning changes for land owned by Steward Land Co. and Taylor Roberts. City Planner Mark Bradley stated that the proposed zoning for the annexation area includes R-M-7, R-1-8, and R-1-10 districts to align with the amended General Plan. Targee Tomisin, representing Steward Land, noted the R-M-7 designation provides design flexibility while maintaining a transition between townhomes and larger single-family lots.
Property owner Taylor Roberts expressed concerns that the proposed R-1-8 zoning might impact his ability to keep farm animals. Bradley explained that existing animal rights could be documented and retained if the property remains a single parcel and is not further developed. The Commission voted 3-2 to recommend approval of the application, including the R-1-8 zoning for the Roberts property, to remain consistent with surrounding areas.
The Commission also addressed Application #26-048, a conditional use permit for Aspen Springs Storage for a self-service enclosed and outside storage facility at 1177 West 100 South. Applicant Brinton Neff explained that the site was redesigned to address access requirements and accommodate future development. The motion to approve the application subject to staff comments and stipulations passed unanimously.
Additionally, the Commission reviewed Application #26-065, a subdivision amendment for the Spring Creek Subdivision at 500 South 1150 West. Bradley noted the amendment reconfigures lots along 1150 West and 1100 West to accommodate planning for a sports complex and avoid residential lots fronting directly onto the park. The Commission unanimously recommended approval of the amendment subject to staff comments and findings of fact.
The meeting, which included discussions regarding future park expansion and an elementary school site, adjourned at 7:15 p.m.
