Due to City building being closed and city staff working remotely, increased construction costs due to disruptions with the supply chain, and the impact of the current pandemic, submitting required plans and documents necessary to avoid a land use approval from expiring is requiring a longer period of time. The Planning Commission may consider granting an extension for all land use approvals that require an approved extension from the commission. PLANNING COMMISSION HEARING 1.

Permitting Restaurants in the PL Public Lands Zoning District Text Amendment - Mayor Erin Mendenhall has initiated a text amendment to the zoning ordinance pertaining to restaurant uses within the PL - Public Lands Zoning District. Under the current ordinance restaurants are allowed to operate as an accessory use only. The amendment would allow restaurants to operate as a principal use. The purpose of the PL district is to provide areas in the city for public uses and regulate the development of those uses. The proposed amendment affects section 21A.33.070 Table of Permitted and Conditional Uses for Special Purpose Districts of the zoning ordinance. Related provisions of Title 21A-Zoning may also be amended as part of this petition. (Staff contact: Amanda Roman at (385) 386-2765 or amanda.roman@slcgov.com) Case number PLNPCM2020-00503 6. Billboard Ordinance Amendments - The City Council is requesting amendments to the zoning ordinance regulations regarding billboards. The proposed amendments would modify city code to align with state law, eliminating the city's use of a 'billboard bank' (a method for managing billboard relocations) to align more closely with Utah state law regulating billboards. The amendments would continue to prohibit new billboards. State law would regulate future billboard modification and relocation. The amendments also include specifics on size, height, and spacing of billboards, along with landscaping, when not already specified in the state law. The proposed amendments affect Chapter 21A.46 of the zoning ordinance. Related provisions of Title 21A-Zoning may also be amended as part of this petition. The changes would apply Citywide.
