The Salt Lake City Planning Commission is scheduled to meet on Wednesday, November 18, 2026, at 5:30 PM at the City & County Building. The meeting will address several items, including design reviews for residential development and proposed amendments to zoning and the general plan.
As part of the consent agenda, the commission will consider a design review for The Hank, located at approximately 670 S West Temple. Jarod Hall, representing the property owner, is requesting approval to develop a 21-unit condominium building that would be approximately 45 feet tall with 18 parking stalls. The applicant is seeking a modification to allow active use on the ground floor rather than enhanced active use. The subject property, currently a 12-unit multi-family structure, is located in Council District 4, represented by Jennifer Napier-Pearce.
The regular agenda includes a request from property owner Carson Cronk regarding a property at approximately 1556 S 500 E. The applicant is seeking approval for a zoning map amendment to change the designation from R-1/5000 (Single-Family Residential) to MU-2 (Mixed Use 2) to restore the property's previous commercial designation. The property was the site of a former hair salon that was converted to a single-family home in 2018. While the applicant has not identified a specific use or tenant, the proposed community benefit is to provide commercial space for local businesses or nonprofit organizations.
Because the proposed zoning map amendment is not aligned with the adopted Central Community Plan future land use map, the applicant is also seeking a general plan amendment. This amendment would change the designation of the property from low density residential to neighborhood commercial. The subject property is located within Council District 5, represented by Erika Carlsen.
The meeting will be livestreamed on the SLC Live Meetings YouTube platform. For those wishing to participate in person, individuals are allotted two minutes to comment during the public hearing portion, while recognized community organizations are allotted five minutes per representative. Written comments must be received by 12:00 PM on the Wednesday before the meeting to be included in the Staff Report.
The meeting will be held in Room 326 of the City & County Building, located at 451 South State Street, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111.
