CONSENT AGENDA
1. Planned Development Modifications for Glendale Townhomes at approximately 1179 S. Navajo Street - Melissa Bigger of Axis Architects is requesting an updated Planned Development approval for the previously approved 3-story townhome project that would increase unit counts from 53 to 74 and eliminate certain private amenities due to a public utility easement within the property. The units will now be available for individual ownership, rather than as rentals only. The property is the site of a former grocery store and is zoned CB (Community Business). The subject property is within Council District 2, represented by Alejandro Puy. (Staff Contact: Eric Daems at 801-535-7236 or eric.daems@slcgov.com) Case Number: PLNPCM2021-00378

REGULAR AGENDA
1. Rezone at Approximately 1816 S State Street - Tiffanie Price, representing the property owner is requesting to change the zoning designation of this property from BP (Business Park) to CC (Corridor Commercial) to allow the existing building at this site to be leased for commercial uses that are not allowed under the current BP zoning designation. The current BP zoning designation does not allow for this property to be used for a restaurant or a retail establishment. The applicant has indicated that they would like to lease the building for these types of uses. The applicant does not intend to redevelop the property at this time. The subject property is within Council District 5, represented by Darin Mano. (Staff Contact: Trevor Ovenden at 801-535-7168 or trevor.ovenden@slcgov.com) Case Number: PLNPCM2024-00033
