Background and Recommendation: The subdivision plat for The Palms at St. George designates the private roadways as common areas and identifies them as public utility and drainage easements. The dwellings on Lots 83 and 84 encroach into the designated private street area, and a plat amendment is being requested to adjust the lot lines to better reflect the existing conditions. The Joint Utilities Commission recommended approval. 8. Public hearing and consideration of Ordinance No. 2026-086 vacating a public utility easement located on Lot 31 of Anasazi Hills at Entrada Phase 1. Background and Recommendation: The Anasazi Hills at Entrada Phase 1 subdivision plat identifies Lot 31 with public utility easements along all lot lines. During the design and development of Phase 2, the boundary between the two phases was established in a manner that did not align with the Phase 1 boundary along Lot 31, leaving a small sliver of land. The owner of Lot 31 subsequently purchased this sliver and now wishes to incorporate it into Lot 31 to accommodate additional improvements. The proposed boundary adjustment will also eliminate the remnant parcel and provide a cleaner, more consistent boundary between Phases 1 and 2. The Joint Utilities Commission recommended approval. 9.
