The Syracuse Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on Tuesday, Nov. 17, 2026, to consider a commercial site plan for a new Chick-fil-A. The proposal, submitted by Micah Ashton, involves a project on approximately 1.77 acres in the General Commercial zone at approximately 2972 W. 1700 S.
Upcoming Public Hearing Details
The meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. in the Council Chambers of City Hall, located at 1979 West 1900 South. According to a public notice from the City of Syracuse, the hearing is part of a series of items the commission will consider, which also includes requests for a commercial subdivision and another commercial site plan.
Written comments regarding the proposed Chick-fil-A site plan must be submitted at least five hours before the meeting. The Syracuse Planning Commission provides an option for the public to participate via Zoom or by telephone during the session.
Regional Business Context
The proposed restaurant development follows a history of Chick-fil-A recognition in the region. In 2018, the company was a recipient of the South Jordan Corporate Citizen Award, according to records from South Jordan City.
South Jordan City, which has a population of 89,114, maintains an economic development program designed to assist businesses with site selection and technical needs. The city reports having nearly 2,000 active business licenses as of September 2026, representing more than 28,000 jobs.
Existing Local Presence
While the new location is proposed for Syracuse, Chick-fil-A is already an established presence in the area's retail landscape. A Chick-fil-A is currently located near the security office at the Fashion Place shopping center in Murray.
Fashion Place, located approximately 19.2 miles from Salt Lake City, features various amenities including a food court with an ATM and designated drop-off locations for ride-share services.
Other Commission Business
The Syracuse Planning Commission meeting is scheduled for Nov. 17, 2026. The commission will also consider a commercial subdivision request by Logan Johnson at 2157 W. 1700 S. and a site plan request by Luz Derly Pietz at 1384 W. 1700 S.
