According to an undated listing of Mona City businesses, Richard Hatfield is associated with Apex Civil Engineering.
In a preliminary application for a site development known as the "Mona Commercial" subdivision, Hatfield was identified as the engineer for the project. This undated application for the Mona Commercial Site Plan, which involves a 3-acre total development area on a property zoned as commercial, listed Hatfield as the engineer with the contact number 801-361-5240.
During a Planning and Zoning meeting held on June 3, 2026, Hatfield was among the individuals in attendance. During that meeting, Hatfield and applicant Joe Humphrey reported that they had addressed comments from a previous meeting and were seeking preliminary approval for the Mona Commercial project. While the discussion was underway, Hatfield expressed some confusion regarding the approval process.
During that same June 3, 2026, meeting, Hatfield provided information to the Planning and Zoning Commission regarding the development of the commercial site. He explained that the buildings within the project would be leased and developed in phases rather than being sold individually. He also addressed questions from the Commission Chair, Dennis Gardner, regarding the potential for a turn lane on Main Street. Hatfield stated that he had discussed the project with Lynn Ingram of the County Road Department and explained that the installation of curb and gutter would follow city requirements. He further noted that approximately 20 feet of roadway widening would be available before the curb and gutter, which would provide sufficient space for a turn lane.
Additional details regarding the project were addressed during the June 3, 2026, meeting. Hatfield confirmed that changes regarding street lighting and parking restrictions along Main Street had been incorporated into the revised plans submitted for the project. Furthermore, when asked about the water requirements for the development, Hatfield reported that he had been unable to obtain information from Mona's water consultant, Jonathan Jones, but he provided estimated water usage figures to the Commission.
As the project involves a private development, the Commission determined during the June 3, 2026, meeting that the property owner would be responsible for any roadway issues within the development, specifically regarding compaction testing for the driveway and internal roads.
