The St. George City Council is scheduled to hold a public hearing on Oct. 1, 2026, to consider changing the name of a public street and vacating several easements, according to a September 21 notice.
The proposed ordinance would change the name of the public street currently known as Backlot Crossing to Desert Fields Drive. The hearing is set to begin at 5:00 p.m. at the City Council Chambers located in City Hall at 61 South Main Street.
In addition to the street name change, the council will consider three ordinances regarding the vacation of easements. These include a utilities and drainage easement on Lot 1 of Foothill Commons, a public utility and drainage easement on Lot 142 of Meadow Valley Farms Phase 11, and a portion of the Vista Ridge Estates Phase II subdivision plat involving the north 10 feet of Lot 69.
