The Vernal City Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on October 13, 2026, to consider a rezone request and multiple ordinance amendments. The meeting is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. at the Vernal City Council Chambers, located at 374 East Main Street.
One item on the agenda involves a recommendation to consider approval of the Everbuilt Rezone for Jacob Speirs. This request concerns property located at 1315 West 500 North, 1189 West 500 North, and 381 North 1250 West, involving parcels 05:006:0012, 05:006:0013, and 05:005:0029. The application seeks to allow the applicant to develop the property into a subdivision and obtain a zoning designation that permits higher residential density.
The commission will also consider three ordinance amendments proposed by Braeden Christofferson. These include amendments to the Vernal City Planning and Zoning Code Section 16.06.010, Section 16.58.112 regarding subdivision vacation requirements, and Section 16.60 regarding master site plans, specifically subsections 16.60.030, 16.60.050, and 16.60.060.
Property owners and interested persons are encouraged to attend the hearing to provide comment.
