The commission will consider several requests regarding land use and subdivision amendments. Rigo Chaparro has requested to amend the Birch Creek Business Park Subdivision, Phase 2 Final Plat from two lots to six lots for parcels located at approximately 475 West 600 South, which are currently zoned General Commercial. Additionally, the commission will hold a public hearing and discussion regarding a conditional-use permit request from Doug Jensen. The request by Jensen involves a five-lot minor subdivision/intrablock development known as Jensen Gardens, located at 175 North 200 West on parcel number 08-082-0049, which is zoned R-1-10 Single-Family Residential 10,000 Square Feet.

The agenda also includes discussions regarding Ordinance 2026-22, which proposes rezoning Cache County parcel numbers 08-085-0008 and 08-085-0011 from R-1-12 Single Family Residential 12,000 Square Feet to M-1 Manufacturing. These parcels, located at approximately 385 West Center, total about 1.4 acres and the request was submitted by Colton Thain. Following the discussion, the commission may vote on the ordinance.
