PUBLIC HEARINGS:
1. PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT ON A ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT TO AMEND CITY CODE TITLE 11, CHAPTER 11, ARTICLE G - FORM BASED CODE, BUILDING TYPES, TRANSITION SETBACKS
BACKGROUND: The transition setback in the Downtown Clearfield Form Based Code (FBC) is intended to provide compatibility of new development with adjacent lower density neighborhoods. The transition setback applies to any building type permitted by the FBC that is adjacent to an existing single-family home or single-family residential zone. Based upon literal enforcement of this standard, staff has identified the need to change the applicability of the transition setback to address new buildings adjacent to single-family zoned properties, but not to existing single-family homes.
RECOMMENDATION: Receive public comment.

This project will improve the bridges, utilities, and the roadway cross sections, these improvements have not been included in the city's 10-year capital improvement planning process until last year.
