- Description/Agenda
- Dennis Peterson owns a 6.27-acres parcel on the North Fork Road, 5.00 miles north the North Fork Road - Utah Highway 35 intersection, in the Hanna area. Mr. Peterson is requesting this rezone of his property to allow for the subdivision of it into three separate lots and a remainder property. Cabin structures exist with established drinking water sources and permanent access for each of the three proposed lots. Changing the zoning would be consistent with how the property has been used for the past 45-years, as the property has been interpreted and referenced as three separate lots since inception, although no division of property has yet to take place. Changing the zone to R-1 Residential would be more consistent with the character, land use, and actual size of the surrounding 20 properties. For example, 15 of the 20 parcels in this neighborhood are under 21 2 acres in size, and 13 of these 15 are even less than 1 acre. Only one parcel of the 20 in the neighborhood is consistent with the current A-5 Agriculture zoning district, it being the only property being assessed as agricultural land. The remaining 19 properties were established and have remained recreational by use for over 70 years. Even with the technical change in how this property will be zoned, no actual change in land use is anticipated to be caused by the rezone. On September 3, 2025, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider this request, reviewed and adopted the findings of fact prepared by the Planning Division, and unanimously recommended the approval of this rezone.
