Jennifer George. Danny Schoenfeld. Dave Bromley. Steve Wrigley. And James, you want to do introduction of staff?

0:59 – 1:313

Yeah, thank you. My name is James Swornson. I'm the community development director. Tonight with us, we have here Darian Alcorn, senior city attorney. Mike Wilcox is the planning director. Brian McHouston, assistant development director. Let's see. I think we have Clinton Spencer, development services manager for the city. Sarah Stringham is a planner. She might have on tonight. Brittany Ward, assistant public works director. Ivan Hooper, transportation going we're going

1:401

timely as possible. Our first item on the agenda is we're the pink box arcade the use and extended hours of operation. Think Sarah you've got that one. Mike are you doing the introduction first?

2:03 – 2:486

Alright. So this item is a as as you stated a conditional use request submitted by the property owner Pink Box Donuts. They are seeking to operate an arcade use from this location in addition to the retail sales business of the donut shop. They're also seeking to operate a little bit earlier than typical before 6AM is required to have a conditional use permit as well. This item is located at 10235 South State Street and the applicant is attending online. Mister Mike Kurz, I believe is speaking for on behalf of the applicant. Mister Kurz, I'm going to allow you to unmute yourself and present to the Planning Commission.

2:557

Good evening. Can you guys hear me?

2:58 – 3:107

Great. Thank you, guys. As Mike mentioned, my name is Mike Kerrs. I'm the VP of construction and facilities for Pink Box Donuts. I wanted to thank you for the opportunity to speak tonight.

3:10 – 3:457

Additionally, we're we we at Pink Box were really excited to come join the Sandy community this summer and open our Pink Box Donut shop there on State Street. Tonight, we're requesting approval, like Mike mentioned, for a conditional use permit at our property located at 10235 South State Street. We're currently renovating that property to a pink box donut shop. The request tonight is for arcade use and extended hours of operation. The property the subject property was built in 1996.

3:45 – 4:297

It's approximately 4,000 square feet set on approximately 0.68 acres, and it's located in the CBD zone. We're proposing an arcade as an accessory use within the Pink Box Doughnut shop. The arcade is proposed to operate under the same business hours as the doughnut shop and it will occupy the former PlayPlace area the restaurant and is about 1,105 square feet in total. So it's that that area in pink on the on the screen. The the building prior was a Feastbox restaurant and prior to that was a was a Burger King where the play place was was in.

4:30 – 5:007

The the total building size is 4,000 square feet. So the arcade spot is is just over 1,100 square feet. We're proposing to have no more than 20 arcade games in the designated arcade area and it will be accessed through the restaurant space. We're not proposing any seating in the arcade. However, we will allow our customers to take food and drink purchased from the donut shop into the arcade area.

5:01 – 5:257

Our Pink Box team members will maintain that arcade area of the shop. Additionally, as Mike mentioned, we're proposing to operate a little bit earlier than what's currently allowed. Currently allowed to open at 6AM. We're proposing to open at 5AM just

5:258

a little

5:25 – 5:447

bit earlier, primarily to sell our donuts at location being a good early morning food. But that's about the scope of our what we're proposing here and please let me know if you have any questions.

5:441

Any commissioner questions? Okay.

5:489

Steve? So my question on 05:00 in the morning, you have run several of these stores. Is that the typical time that you open?

5:56 – 6:147

Correct. That's the typical time that we open our shops. We've just located we just opened a shop in American Fork, Utah and we're proposing to operate the same hours that we're currently doing at American Fork.

6:161

Did that answer your questions? Yes. Okay. Sir, did you have any other additional?

6:23 – 6:5310

I don't think I have anything to add if you guys have any questions for me. But just that I guess one thing, we did receive a comment a phone call earlier this week, and so that was those comments were sent to the planning commission as well as, to the applicant. So I'll mention that. And then staff doesn't have concerns. We are recommending approval of the arcade and then approval to amend the existing conditional use permit with the for the extended hours.

6:551

Thank you. I think this item has been noticed to the public. Is there anybody here tonight would like to speak on this item? No? Anybody online, Mike?

7:06 – 7:296

If you're joining us via Zoom webinar and would like to comment on this particular item, please use the raise your hand feature now and we'll address one at a time. I'm seeing no hands.

7:291

Okay. We'll close that and bring it back to the commission for deliberation and possible action.

7:359

Go ahead, Steve. Question on parking. Is there going to be sufficient parking for a donut shop an arcade? They'd probably be the same thing, I would guess, as far as customers.

7:45 – 8:0310

Yes. Yeah. We looked at the parking uses, we don't consider what's required for the restaurant use is what we would look at. We were we're not gonna say like double park them to say they need like the arcade use and the restaurant use. The restaurant use

8:049

It's a square footage, basically.

8:0510

Yeah. The eye looks at the square footage.

8:072

So yes.

8:089

Yeah. The other question I have is as far as it says no city means no tables. Will they be able to have chairs and stuff for parents who take their kids to this arcade or they get to stand?

8:17 – 8:2810

I don't think there's any scene. I don't know if Mike wants to comment online on that, but I believe that there's no tables or seating.

8:29 – 8:497

Not currently in good great question. Not not currently in the in the in the plan to have any tables Generally, we're pretty limited on our seating. If we do offer, it might be a small bench to sit down on, but nothing permanently affixed to the floor.

8:509

Okay. Yes, small benches. And I'm just trying to think, I'm going to take my kids there to do the arcade after that. I'd want some place to sit down while they're playing their games.

8:587

Correct. Nothing permanently affixed to the ground.

9:031

Okay. Thank you. With that, is there any other further deliberation questions or possible action?

9:135

I'm ready for a motion

9:141

unless there's other. Go ahead.

9:18 – 9:415

Right, I'll make a motion that the Planning Commission approve a conditional use permit for arcade use in the CBD zone and amending an existing conditional use permit for extended hours as described in staff report for the property located at 10002 And 35 South State Street based on the four findings and the seven conditions detailed in the staff report.

9:411

Is there a second?

9:419

I'll second it. Steve.

9:444

Dave Romley.

9:464

Steve Wrigley.

9:474

Lenny Stavenport. Yes. Craig Kitterman.

9:504

Jennifer George. Yes. Danny Schoenfeld. Yes. This motion carries.

9:54 – 10:141

Thank you and good luck with your project. Okay. Next on the agenda are a series of annexations. Just gonna do a quick kind of just general process for how we're gonna hear those tonight and then how we're going to handle each of those. So thank you for everybody that's attended tonight.

10:14 – 10:421

We have a lot of items on the calendar. We want to make sure that you understand the role of the Planning Commission. And we also want you to everyone here to. To speak on the public hearing item that you have the opportunity for and to be open to the public hearing to just take a minute to do a couple of housekeeping items. So for the tonight's hearing the public these items are for the city council's ultimate decision both decision ultimately for the annexation and the ultimate planning or the zoning.

10:43 – 11:181

Planning commission's role is to make a recommendation to the city council. Utah code requires that the city council hold a public hearing for annexations and the public hearing is currently scheduled for April 7. Utah code also requires the Planning Commission hold a public hearing for this zoning as the notice to the public we are also holding this public hearing this evening. Because the Planning Commission is tasked with forwarding recommendations both on annexation and zoning. It is most efficient to consider both the annexation and zoning together for each of these proposed annexation area.

11:18 – 11:491

We will hold one public hearing for with which each item when when a person is called on and when you have an opportunity to speak. If you'd like to speak as the individual, you'll have two minutes to do so. To help the Planning Commission understand and track the comments, I will announce each annexation in order as it appears on the agenda. I will invite owner of the property to to speak on those at one at a time. After we have gone through all the annexation areas and the property owners have had a chance to speak, I will invite other members of the public to speak one at a time.

11:50 – 12:231

If you are one of these final speakers. Relate your comments to the specific annexation area and please specify which annexation area you are commenting on. Please specify. Excuse me when there are no more speakers remaining I will close public hearing and the public the Planning Commission will then deliberate and vote. Again, this vote will be for the purposes of vote forwarding a recommendation to the City Council, which Utah code identifies as the decision maker body, both both for the annexation and final zoning of the property.

12:23 – 12:441

Just a couple of reminders. If you're here and speaking one here in person, please state your name and address and speak clearly into one of the two mics. Your comment will be time to and limited to two minutes. Please direct your comments to the planning commission, not the staff or audience. Comments to the audience are not appropriate.

12:45 – 13:241

Please respect and recognize the planning commission and we'll listen intently to each one of your concerns or items as we speak to them. And just as a matter of business for tonight, two of the items that were noticed for tonight, items twenty five and twenty six, the Alta Approach Annexation. And that's and also the LCR annexation two are both tabled for tonight, so those will not be heard, but they were noticed and we wanted to make sure that we noticed that and we will take action just as a tabling for a future meeting.

13:265

Do the tabling at this point, guess?

13:28 – 13:415

So I'll make a motion that we Planning Commission table Alto approach annexation and the LCR two annexation to a uncertain date uncertain.

13:421

Is there a second? Hold on. Sorry. As

13:466

the item was noticed to the public, we should be able to take comment.

13:51 – 14:081

Oh, sure. Okay. Is there anybody here tonight that would like to speak on either of those two? Please come down and state your name and address. Sorry. I processed question word.

14:0811

No worries. I wasn't sure if you were gonna do comment. Yeah. Please go ahead.

14:1212

You'll have

14:129

two minutes.

14:1211

Or not. And I saw something in the procedures that I get a little more than two minutes if I represent the whole HOA that's part of that or no?

14:201

Just two minutes.

14:20 – 14:5611

Two minutes. Yes. Okay. I'll talk I'll talk fast. My name is Josh Cantor. I'm the member of the Granite Community Council, president of the Alta approach homeowners association and homeowner and resident at 3972 Alto Approach Road. Thank you for the opportunity. I'm gonna go really quickly. To begin, I'll I'll note that given the limited timing and information available, I personally and as president of our HOA strongly object to the proposed annexation by Sandy City of the four homes that are located within our HOA, as well as the condominium development and single family homes also proposed for annexation to our east. Those are the properties that make up twenty five and twenty six on today's agenda.

14:56 – 15:2411

I hope to articulate our reasons for that fairly quickly. First and foremost, these annexations run directly contrary to the wishes of the very property owners who would be subject to them. In the absence of any demonstrable leader hardship to Sandy City and none has been identified, the clear and unified position of the homeowners should decisive. Property owners overwhelmingly do not want this annexation. It's important to clarify that both the Alta Approach and Quarry Drive are private streets, meaning Sandy will have no current or future obligation to maintain them with or without annexation.

15:25 – 15:5911

The process itself appears to be driven almost exclusively by old water service or annexation letters rather than by any coherent planning principles or the goal of keeping communities intact. The result is, quite frankly, nonsensical. In the Alta Approach PUD, the result is that Sandy would annex the westernmost and easternmost homes in our community while leaving the rest of our neighborhood in unincorporated Salt Lake County. This would literally split our community into two jurisdictions and essentially split our community into three sections. Sandy has also not articulated how its stated interest in serving the public good is met by annexing only selected parcels within a larger peninsula area.

15:59 – 16:3611

If Sandy believed the entire peninsula area should be within Sandy, we would expect to see that presented. Instead, the patchwork approach suggests that Sandy may know it cannot lawfully annex the entire peninsula under current city initiated annexation law and is relying solely on those old water letter water service letters to justify this partial and fractured expansion. Compounding this, several of the targeted properties do not appear to be contiguous with Sandy's existing borders, while other properties with contiguous borders have been left out. The proposed annexation of the easternmost home in Alta Approach, the condominium development and the homes east of it, would create non contiguous islands of jurisdiction. It's difficult to see how that serves anyone's municipal interests.

16:36 – 16:5711

HB three thirty also bears mention under that legislation, as you well know, the entire peninsula at the Canyon entrance, including every property in the area now subject to Sandy's annexation effort, was explicitly excluded from the Granite City Incorporation proposal so the area could remain intact within unincorporated Salt Lake County. Preserved the status quo that we as property owners prefer and are asking you to respect.

16:573

Sir, your two minutes are up.

17:0011

Thank you. The rules online say five minutes for somebody representing a group which I represent.

17:061

If you Finish what you

17:0711

have Finish to if you'd allow me to.

17:091

Yes. Please finish. Thank you.

17:11 – 17:3911

Finally, it's far from clear that these water letters and annexation letters are legally enforceable. Many are unrecorded, which would we would assume is customary and legally required process vis a vis the legality of covenants that run with land and are proposed to be binding on successor owners, in some instances, decades after the original agreements were executed. Building a city initiated annexation on such a foundation, particularly if there's no continuity with the city, raises serious procedural concerns. Beyond all these technical issues, I wanna emphasize a more personal note. This annexation effort is breaking up our community.

17:40 – 18:0711

I've been a member in any number of meetings over the past decades wherein Sandy City officials have explicitly said they would not do this and would respect the wishes of the constituents they annex. Yet that is exactly what is happening here. Until Sandy initiated this process, I had never imagined the city would attempt to divide an established neighborhood without conversation, collaboration, or demonstrated benefit. It makes us feel less like constituents and more like pawns in a strategy that has not been explained. That alone has shifted community sentiment dramatically.

18:08 – 18:5611

Similarly, it's also probably worth noting that it seems grossly unfair, if not negligent, to surprise neighbors and neighborhoods like ours without reasonable notice, discussion, or opportunity to consult with each other, let alone professionals. Perhaps none of you have ever lived in an HOA, though I doubt that. If you do, then you know that getting the timing and the difficulty and the cost this is causing us is significant. That is not what I would say is an encouraging welcome to Sandy atmosphere. Without foreclosing our willingness to continue collaborative conversations about what is and is not in the interest of the homeowners, Sandy City, and Salt Lake County, for all these reasons, we respectfully request that Sandy discontinue its efforts to annex the Alta Approach and Canyon Engine's properties and allow our neighborhood to remain what already is a cohesive contiguous part of unincorporated Salt Lake County.

18:5611

Thank you for the additional time. I appreciate it. Thank you for

18:58 – 19:111

the opportunity to see. Is there anybody else here tonight on those two items? Anybody online, Mike? Oh, I'm sorry. Go ahead. Please come down. You'll have two minutes. Please just state your name and address,

19:1113

please. My name is John Benfatto. I live at 4086 East Quarry Drive in a condominium complex. I'm here representing the board. I'm a board member.

19:211

Is this part of items 24 and or twenty five and twenty six?

19:2413

It's the l c

19:251

Okay. Two. You. It's the Thank you.

19:2713

The one. K. So first

19:295

of all,

19:29 – 20:0013

I just wanna thank Josh for presenting so much information so quickly. We submitted a letter to Brian this afternoon, basically stating that we had no idea that Sandy was gonna try this or attempt this, and we just need more time. And we were not aware of the agreements that were shown to us. They were from the nineteen eighties. We need time to evaluate this and make decision as a community.

20:01 – 20:4413

And, we're thankful that it appears you guys are gonna table it for for further consideration. And we welcome a conversation with Sandy. If Sandy wants to sit down and talk to us about the benefits of annexation, We have a community that it's we have HOA meetings. We have the owners are engaged. We welcome the opportunity to discuss the pros and cons of annexation with Sandy. But but right now, you you we just feel like we were very surprised with what happened, and and we would request that that the process stop until we can kind of get time to evaluate the options.

20:441

So thank you very much. Thank you. Anyone else? Mike, anybody online?

20:54 – 21:286

If you're joining us via Zoom webinar and would like to speak on items twenty five and twenty six you may use the raise your hand feature now and we'll address you one at a time. And please note that the Q and A feature on Zoom is not for public comment. Public comment has to be taken during the public comment periods using the raise your hand feature. I'm seeing no hands raised.

21:281

We'll close that to public comment and bring that back to the Commission for the underlying motion.

21:345

Okay, so my motion stands. Do I need to repeat it or we good?

21:391

Sorry, second and there was a second Jennifer seconded.

21:444

Dave Bromley. Yes. Jennifer George. Yes. Steve Wrigley. Yes. Lanise Davenport. Yes. Craig Kitterman.

21:514

Danny Schoenfeld? Yes. This motion carries.

21:551

Thank you. The first item going back to the original order was the Walter's Annexation. Brian, you wanna take that one first?

22:07 – 22:4715

Thank you, chair. The Walter's Annexation is located at 2587 East Lower Cottonwood Road. You can see that on the map here. So the property owner signed a consent to annex into Sandy City in June 2024. This property currently zoned a one in the county, which is historically been similar to our R 110 zone in the in Sandy City. Just to make a quick note that this is a legal nonconforming lot. I included a little snippet of the plat in the staff report that the county approved this with a note that this would be a legal nonconforming lot. So, we would recommend the Planning Commission for a recommendation at the appropriate time.

22:47 – 22:591

Thank you. Is there is the property owner here for this item? Okay. We'll close that to public comment or excuse me is there anybody online Mike?

23:01 – 23:196

If you're joining us via Zoom webinar and would like to speak to this particular item, please use the raise your hand feature now and we'll address you one at a time. I'm seeing no hands raised.

23:191

Okay. We'll close that to public comment. Then. Next is the

23:24 – 23:5015

Kessel annexation. Yeah. The Kessel annexation. This includes three different properties. Two of them are off of a subdivision called the Larkin Mini Subdivision. That's 2802 East and 2798 East Casale Drive. And then the third one is south of those two properties located at 9538 Deer Run Place. And the county zoning is r 11010

23:501

as well. Thank you. Is the property owner here tonight that would like to speak to this? If you could please come down and state your name and address for the record. You'll have two minutes.

24:03 – 24:2116

Yeah. My name is Rod Glover. I own the property at 2802 East Cassell Drive. Brian's correct that we are off of Cassell as far as access to our lane. On the property map, it shows that we're hooked up to Deer Run Place, which is not the case.

24:21 – 24:5716

Deer Run Place dead ends, basically at our property line. I can there's two concerns. One is, of course, the pending or not pending, anticipation of getting incorporated into Granite City. If that does happen, then and I get annexed into Sandy City prior to that being resolved, I will then be an island of Sandy City in the middle of Granite Incorporation. So the reverse will happen to me.

24:58 – 25:4216

So right now, I everything's through the through the county, my sewer, my garbage, and everything goes that way. Sandy City stops at the West side of Cassell Drive, I guess Sandy's down below there. I'm not really sure. But I would propose or like that anything on my property and my neighbors not be acted upon as far as zoning until there is the the permanent items are in place for either incorporation of Granite City or if Sandy City ends up annexing the rest of the property around me, then I I guess I'd be going into it. I do support the Granite Incorporation.

25:42 – 25:5516

I donated to it, and I signed the deal. So I am involved in it through that manner. So I would like to see that carried forward first before anything action is done on my property. Thank you.

25:561

Anybody online, Mike?

26:00 – 26:236

If you're joining us via Zoom webinar and would like to speak to this particular item, please use the raise your hand feature now and we'll address you one at a time. I'm seeing no other hands.

26:231

Okay, we'll close that to public comment. We'll do the next one clerk annexation.

26:28 – 26:4315

So the Clark annexation is just further east up the road. Twenty eight seventy five east ninety four sixty south. Property owner signed a consent back in 2017. The county zone is R 110, proposed to be R 110 in Sandy as well.

26:451

Is the property owner here and would like to speak to this item tonight? Please come down and state your name and address for the record, please. You'll have two minutes.

26:56 – 27:1117

My name is Caroline Clark. I live at 2875 East Cassell or 9460. I'm I really just don't know enough information. And so I don't know exactly can I just ask questions or is that is this how this works?

27:111

Staff would be able to help you after this

27:141

Meeting to answer any of those additional questions.

27:1617

Okay. Sure. So do I just call them or is is that

27:191

for you? Yeah. Brian.

27:2115

talk to you. Yeah,

27:249

call me tomorrow.

27:2417

Okay. Okay. I'll talk to them then.

27:271

Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Anybody else to this item? Property owner spoken. Anybody online?

27:36 – 27:546

If you would like to comment on this particular item, please use the raise your hand feature now. If you're joining us via Zoom and we'll address you one at a time. I am seeing no other hands raised.

27:541

Okay. We'll close that to public comment. Next item is the Hidden Pine Annexation.

28:00 – 28:4115

Yeah. These properties are 95169535 South Hidden Pine Lane. Property owners signed an annexation letter back in 2025 and 2023. The county zoning is R115. Sandy City would be R115 as well. And if possible, I'd like to do the next one as well because it's the neighbor at 9516 South, the Smith annexation. Once he saw the other signs for the two other properties, he called and request to be annexed in as well. So he signed a consent on 03/09/2026. Thank you. On these two items of six and seven, are is there anybody here in the audience would like

28:411

to speak on this topic? Mike, anybody online?

28:47 – 29:096

If you are joining us via Zoom webinar and would like to speak on the Smith annexation or the Hidden Pine annexation, please use the raise your hand feature now and we'll address you one at a time. I am seeing no hands raised.

29:091

We'll close that to public comment and go on to the next one, the Pingree Annexation.

29:14 – 29:3215

Yeah. Pingree Annexation located at 9620 South 3100 East. Property owner signed the consent back in 2020. The current property or current zoning in the county is R121. Sandy does not have an R 121. The closest thing is R 120. So we would propose the R 120 zone.

29:33 – 29:471

Is the property owner here tonight that would like to speak on this topic? Please come down. And if you'll just state your name and address for the record, please. You'll have two minutes.

29:4718

Yes. I'm Duffy Pingree. I live at 9620 South 3100 East. My question, guess, is is my

29:55 – 30:3318

Joan. So it says that we consented to it, but I'm was when we rebuilt our house on that property, we were told we had no choice. We had to sign that document in order to connect the house up to the exact same pipe that we had connected with the prior house. So I I guess that's my number one question. And also, we're interested in this Granite City development that they're creating. And so I wanna know if this annexation overrides that, if I have the possibility of still being in

30:331

the Granite City. Staff would be able to answer those questions offline for you absolutely. My question. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Mike, anybody online on this top item?

30:44 – 31:056

If you're joining us via Zoom webinar, I would like to speak to this particular item on the Pingree Annexation. Please use the raise your hand feature now and we'll address you one at a time. I'm seeing no other hands raised.

31:051

Okay, we'll close that to public comment on item number 10 is the Anderson annexation.

31:11 – 31:3515

Yeah, just down the road at 9635 South 3100 East. Signed the petition back in 2005. County zoning is r one fifteen. Proposal in Sandy is r one fifteen. I will mention that missus Anderson did call me and email me, and she expressed an interest to stay within. She would like to be part of the Granite community if that incorporates so just wanted to make a record of that. Thank you.

31:361

Is the property owner here tonight that would like to speak on this item? Anybody online, Mike?

31:44 – 32:036

If you're joining us via Zoom webinar and would like to speak on the Anderson annexation, please use the raise your hand feature now and we'll address you one at a time. I am seeing no hands raised.

32:031

Thank you. Next item on the agenda is the Miller annexation number 10.

32:09 – 32:2115

This one's located at 3017 East Granite Meadow Lane. Properly on signed the consent back in 2020. The county's only R 121, so we would propose R 120 here in Sandy City.

32:231

Located at 9876 South 2700 East. Signed a consent back in 2020. County zoning is R143. We don't have an r one forty three but we do have an r 40. So that would be our recommendation. And included in your packet, we did get an email from Anna Sievertz asking for withdrawal letter from the from this annexation. Thank you. Is the this item has

34:041

been noticed to the public. Is there anybody here that would like to speak on this item? Please come down and state your name and address for the record, please. You'll have two minutes.

34:15 – 34:3219

My name excuse me. My name is Von Cox. My address is 9906 South 27 Northeast. I'm the parcel that is just south of the Sieverts property. And I have I wanna comment on several annexations that I've written them up in a letter that I could hopefully

34:321

if you wanna give it to the staff?

34:38 – 35:1119

I I want to object to this annexation for two reasons. The first is that it doesn't have a border that's contiguous with Sandy City. You're essentially making a island within an island. And there are actually five of the total annex parcels that have this situation where they don't have contiguous boundary within Sandy City, and they're listed in my letter. That's objection is this parcel used to be serviced for culinary water by the North Dry Creek Irrigation Culinary System, which Sandy City purchased in 1992.

35:11 – 36:0919

In the contract, there is a clause that says Sandy agrees not to use culinary water to justify any annexations of any of the properties that were on the North Dry Creek system prior to Sandy's purchase of the water system. So based on that contract, if Sandy were to annex this this property, they would be in violation of that covenant of the contract. So those are the two reasons why I object to this. There's another parcel, the Evanston property. If you go to the second page of my use water for the justification for that annexation.

36:1019

And that's all I have to say about those two. I have comments on some others that I'll be back up later on.

36:16 – 36:271

Okay. Thank you. You if and if it's if you're not directly to the property owner, I would say that you would need to wait till after all of the. Annexation, so we'll know

36:2719

when you when you mention that at the property, I'll come up at that time, right?

36:31 – 36:511

But if you're if you're not directly the property owner itself, we're asking just the property owner to make comment on that. And then if you have general comments for all of these other related ones, can wait till after. Till the very end? Yes. Yeah, please. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Anybody else related to that property online?

Yeah. This one's located at 2627 East 10000 South. Former property owner signed a letter and consent back in April 2024. Property is on R 143 in the county, proposed to be R 140 in Sandy City.

37:581

We'll close that to public comment. Item item number 14, the ninth annexation.

38:03 – 38:1715

Yeah. Located at 10116 South Alta Villa Drive. Property owner signed back in 2004. R 143 is the current zoning property current zoning in the county. We would propose R 140 in Sandy City.

38:171

Thank you. Is the property owner here tonight that would like to speak on this? Please come down. Please come down. You have two minutes.

38:27 – 39:0320

Yes. My name is Douglas Knight. I live at 10116 Alta Villa Drive in Sandy, so Salt Lake County, whatever. Couple comments. First, that, your slide should be amended to say property owner was forced to sign a consent petition back in 2004. Twenty two years ago we signed that because the only way, the only way we could get culinary water was to sign that petition. It was very vague. Didn't really spell out things. There was no inbound date. That's twenty two years ago.

39:03 – 39:2720

And now all of a sudden, it's coming up because the Granite initiative is, like, coming back with their little information here. So change that because I was forced. And I'm gonna ask I'm gonna petition to have my name removed from that petition as well. Second of all, your map is also inaccurate. You show all that red is contiguous.

39:27 – 39:5420

If you look at the real properties on that street that are being forced, you know, being asked to annex, it is not one big continuous block of red there like you have on your diagram. In fact, it breaks it up into islands. So the question starts coming around municipal service services and how they're gonna be delivered to us. You know, it's like myself and my neighbor across the street, we get annexed. It's gonna create an island to the other properties.

39:54 – 40:1620

So is the snowplow gonna lift its plow up when it comes to my street? And then all of sudden drop it in front of my house and then lift it up when it gets to the Burgess' house and continue down the street, then drop in front of Taylor's house, then pick up, and then drop in front of Miller's house. You know, not contiguous. So thank you for your time. I appreciate you listening to

40:161

me. Thank you. Mike, anybody else online to speak to this item?

the public. Anyone here tonight at the property owner, please come down. You'll have two minutes. State your name and address.

Do I need to state the address again?

47:291

Yeah. I unfortunately, that's just part of the process.

47:32 – 48:1012

682 South Oakwood Lane. I have no problem being in Sandy, but as you can see from that map, all of my neighbors are not, and they were all part of the same development. So I would like to know how we just have one letter from a former from the former developer, and we don't have the rest of them. Like the previous person said, I'm a little concerned about services. One of my neighbors there, they saw a house on fire across the lane.

48:11 – 48:3412

You know, the Wasatch goes down. There's kind of a gully there. And on the other side, you can see the houses. And they called Sandy City Fire Department. They called, you you know, that they said, no. No. We we we don't handle that. It it's united or unified and unified. They came to the house. They said, how the hell do we get across that gully?

48:34 – 49:0512

And it's like, we're supposed to tell you that? And by the time they figured it all out, the house had burned out. And so I'm a little concerned that if something happens, all my neighbors are in a different city. Like I said, I I I have no problem being in Sandy, but I'd kinda like all the neighbors around me to be in the same city, you know, for services and whatever. If they call, who do they call? Anyway, that's my comments.

49:051

Thank you very much.

49:0612

Yeah. And how do I find out how come the rest of

49:116

Mark be Brian McKusenwiccan.

49:151

49:391

Thank you. We'll close that to public comment. Item number 24, the Lekai annexation.

49:44 – 50:1315

This is located at 9565 South Wassets Boulevard. We have a consent back by back signed in 2021. This property currently has two zonings in the county, R 143 and c and c two. And then there's another little box c two slash z c, which is a zoning condition which allowed them to sell wine. And so Sandy is proposing to zone this to R 140 and the CC which is our community commercial zone.

50:161

Thank you. Anybody with is the property here? Please come down and state your name and address record. You'll have two minutes.

50:2221

My address or the address of the property?

50:251

Address of the property. Yes, sir.

50:2621

My address of the property is 9565 South Wasatch Boulevard.

50:311

And your name

50:3221

is And your name? My name is Robert Taylor. I'm an attorney.

50:366

Sir, could you speak right into one of the mics? If you could pick one of the two mics, just pull it closer to your

50:401

Either or. Which one?

50:426

You can pick either or. Okay. Yeah.

50:441

Just one or the other.

50:4521

First of all, I should note that that the consent that was referred to Sir,

50:511

if you could just speak real closely into that mic. Yeah. Like it's your best friend.

50:55 – 51:1021

That was referred to has already been withdrawn. And and so that would be part of the protest that I understand we can file sometime before the council meeting on the seventh, not tonight. We don't need to protest tonight.

51:101

That is not part of this process. That is correct.

51:12 – 51:5721

Correct. Good. My understanding is is that the process tonight is primarily to consider zoning assuming that Lacai is annexed into Sandy. My message is is pretty short. We've been working on that. We've been talking to to staff. We are not yet ready. We need a little bit more time, and and our recommendation and and hope is that you will defer it long enough to let us complete that process. There are a number of activities, as I'm sure you understand, that take place at LeCai and that are are allowed now. We don't wanna find ourselves out of compliance should the annexation occur.

51:58 – 52:4021

We have a number of liquor licenses, for example, that need to be addressed. Significantly for you is that the notice that that includes that parcel up there with the cross hatch is not a parcel. It was before it looks like, but it's not now. It only takes part of some parcels which are outside of that area. And so don't think that you can do this particular annexation anyway. That'll be addressed if we need to, hopefully, just with with staff. But if if not with staff, excuse me, then we would certainly address that in our protest too. Unless you have questions

52:401

of me. Any questions? No, thank you.

52:44 – 52:553

I will just mention that his questions that he brought up obviously are for the City Council to decide as far as when it gets to them on April 7. Sure. Thank

55:39 – 56:0415

Yeah. This is for a four lot subdivision, 32 or 302030233030, and 3033 East Flats Lane. The developer signed the consent for these for the subdivision in 2014. Current zoning in the county is r 121. We would propose them to be R 120 in Sandy City. Two of those lots would be legal nonconforming because they are under 20,000 square feet currently.

56:05 – 56:171

This item has been noticed to the public. Is anybody here tonight would like to speak on this item? Please come down and state your name and address for the record. And just speak really in one of those two mics.

56:17 – 57:028

Okay. Yeah. I'll be brief. So my name is David Sheffings. I live at 3033 East Yankee Flats Lane. So one of those nonconforming lots. Myself, I actually have no problems. Actually, I'm in full support of the annexation. I've actually sent questions to Brian. He's answered all those questions. And talking with the neighbors, I know I can't really represent the neighbors, but we've discussed this proposal, and nobody actually has any issues with it. The only two things that really came up, which I think Brian has actually answered, one was about the Bell Canyon irrigation rights, and it sounds like there's no change to that. Those will continue. Another question that we had, all the homeowners would really like to see the road taken over by Sandy City. Been talking with Brian that was not possible because of the size of the lots would be reduced.

57:02 – 57:198

So if that was ever a consideration in the future, we would like to that to be considered just more for snow plowing than anything else. The only other last question I have is I'm a little unsure why the crosshatch goes down Dimpledale Road. I didn't actually get a chance to ask Brian about that.

57:221

Please please. Please yeah he can answer that after.

57:258

Yeah, we will as homeowners we will wear aware of that zone going down the the road there so. Other than that no no other issues.

Thank you. We'll close that to public comment and we'll bring that back to just general public comment. If there's anybody else that would like to speak tonight to this item, you're welcome. Please come down. You'll have two minutes. Again, please just state your name and address for the record, please.

1:02:36 – 1:03:1319

My name is Von Cox. My address is 9906 South 2700 East. You have a copy of the letter that I have given you before. I wanna make just a couple of comments. First, has anyone really considered how these annexations are gonna break up the current islands? I look at the island I live in. It's about three quarters of a mile long. From the top to the bottom, it changes from unincorporated county to Sandy back to unincorporated county nine times. Nine times. And as I talk with people in Sandy, I feel like those kind of common sense things fall on deaf ears.

1:03:14 – 1:03:3119

So I wanna ask the question, what is the real motivation for these annexations? It's probably above the pay grade of everybody in this room. But the message delivered by Sandy City is that the city has a contractual right to complete these annexations. Perhaps they do. Perhaps they don't.

1:03:31 – 1:04:1119

While there are many legal arguments that the annexation clauses are not enforceable, no one knows how a court would rule in this k issue. But in all candor, these 29 annexation rule resolutions, these actions that would annex 53 parcels of land within the Granite community are not really about annexation at all. They are about Sandy City's efforts to stop the incorporation of the city of Granite. If these annexations go through, the map of Granite will change, and those that are trying to incorporate Granite will have to start over. The deadline is July 2027, and there's not enough time to start over and complete it.

1:04:11 – 1:04:4319

So this is an effort to stop that effort. If these annexations go through, the incorporation effort will likely die or be on life support. Through these annexation actions, the Sandy City is actually working to, number one, silence the voice of the Granite community and its residents. Number two, stop a valid and legally authorized election where the residents of Granite can voice make their own decision. And number three, deny the residents of Granite their right of self determination.

1:04:44 – 1:05:1019

It's hard for me to find an example in Utah government of anything more undemocratic and un American than using tech technicalities and trickery to silence the voice of an entire community. And that's what's happening here. Two minutes are up. You know, I don't know what to say, but it's unconscionable what's happening here. Thank you.

1:05:101

Thank you. Anybody else that would like to speak tonight that hasn't already? Please come down. If you'd state your name and address for the record, please.

1:05:24 – 1:05:3923

I I'm Rob Alston. I live at 10575 Dimple Dell Road, currently a resident of Sandy City. Wasn't always that. So I lived in Sandy City for twenty years over on Segal Lily. Moved to on to Dimple Dell about twenty years ago.

1:05:39 – 1:06:1123

So I was a member of Granite Community. Joined the Granite Community Board for about four or five years. Really didn't think that Granite Community was particularly well run, and there was a lot of people who had hostility to Sandy City for what I thought were really good reasons. So fifteen years ago, I voluntarily left Granite City or Granite Community annexed into Sandy. In that fifteen years, I've had a lot of dealings with Sandy City.

1:06:11 – 1:06:5123

They've been nothing but positive. I love the people that I've worked with, whether it's been in public utilities, planning, development. I built added onto my house. I did an ADU, all kinds of things where I've had to deal with Sandy City, including police. Quick response for police as opposed to being in the county. Anyway, I'm really happy with being in Sandy City, and I support these annexations because I think it makes no sense whatsoever to have the current checkerboard of county and Sandy City that we have on Dippledale. And it only makes sense to create have it be one city, and I think Sandy City is the right city for that.

1:06:511

Thank you for your time. Anybody else that would like to speak tonight? Anybody online, Mike?

1:06:56 – 1:07:176

If you're joining us via Zoom webinar and would like to speak on any of the annexation items, please use the raise your hand feature now and we'll address you one at a time. You have one raised hand. Mr. Steve Van Maren, you may unmute yourself.

1:07:171

Steve, you'll have two minutes.

1:07:21 – 1:07:3724

Thank you. Steve Van Maren, 1400178 South Bangor Parkway. I am totally impressed with the chairs getting through this agenda so quickly. I totally understand what you're trying to do. Thank you very much.

1:07:371

Thank you, Steve. Anybody else online or in person would like to speak to these items tonight?

1:07:476

I'm seeing no other hands.

1:07:49 – 1:08:101

Okay, we're going to close that to public comment and we're going to bring that back to the Commission for action. Let's see going back to the Walters annexation that would be number. Oh sure absolutely sorry Deliberation. Do we are there specific questions on any of the annexations or process? What would you like to discuss?

1:08:1014

It appears as though we're creating all these islands.

1:08:131

But Can you speak into your mic?

1:08:1514

Appears as though we're

1:08:301

Darian, did you want to take that one?

1:08:34 – 1:09:0425

Can you hear me okay? Yes. Sorry, I'm a little under the weather. So the state law allows annexation of contiguous property that's within an island or a peninsula in Sandy. So if it's already an island and there's a property within that island that's contiguous to Sandy, Sandy is allowed under state law to annex that.

1:09:05 – 1:09:4125

It's the city council that makes the determination that it's in the best interest of the city to annex only a portion of that island or peninsula when they annex the property or, you know, multiple properties. They're not creating the island because it already exists as an island today. They adopted that intent to annex resolution previously and within that resolution they made the determination that it was in the best interest of Sandy City to only annex a portion.

1:09:44 – 1:10:125

sure I understood that answer actually. So did you say that there was not these annexations wouldn't create any instances where that property does not touch Sandy City after it's annexed? Is that I thought that was the intention as as far as islands go. And do do any of these annexations not meet that or is my understanding not correct?

1:10:12 – 1:10:2725

So that each property that's being annexed is contiguous to Sandy City. Just isn't the entire island that's being annexed. Okay. I I understand. It's a portion of an island that's being annexed.

1:10:271

Okay. Craig, does that answer your question?

1:10:3114

Is there not a deadline that the state has given us? So

1:10:39 – 1:11:1325

there is a the state has adopted an an automatic annexation date in 2027 that these properties have annexation agreements of various forms that are already in place. And so Sandy City is annexing them in advance of that automatic annexation time frame based on the water

1:11:2214

state's deadline. I'm not sure if the audience understands that.

1:11:27 – 1:11:393

And by what Brennan mentioned there were a few that aren't that are coming in just as a consent. Correct. And not as part of a water letter as well. There were several there were several of those too.

1:11:41 – 1:11:5425

Believe that when the state adopted the automatic annexation, there actually were quite a few properties that began to just request annexation in advance of that date.

1:11:551

And we have done some of those already

1:11:579

as part of

1:11:581

Yeah. We've seen several of those already.

1:12:0014

One last question about the granite situation. Are we hampering something there in the granite area?

1:12:12 – 1:12:4725

So the granite area performed a feasibility study. And they that feasibility study included some of these properties. So that feasibility study would be would need to be amended if the city council determines to amex these properties. But that determination is going to be made by the city council. Mister

1:12:50 – 1:13:012

chair, I have a question. Yeah. Regarding the there was a lot of questions on services. And so if we could just put on record how services will be tackled in these new annexed areas, that would be helpful.

1:13:011

Do you want to yeah, Brian, you want to talk about that for a minute?

1:13:04 – 1:13:3415

Yeah. In talking with our public works folks. They are already current agreements with the county on some of these areas because this isn't unfortunately not a new thing. I mean, we have areas that are part, you know, you can have portions of the same street that are part in Sandy and partly in the county. And so there are agreements in some of those locations where either Sandy performs the service on the snowplow or the county does. And so we would have similar agreements in place in some of these areas.

1:13:37 – 1:13:539

Jim, I got a couple of questions. We've had a lot regarding the water. From my understanding, the people that had the water letters whatever, they sent us something saying that they are they would like to move forward with this, but now someone to drop out of that. Is that what I heard?

1:13:53 – 1:14:1015

So there are a couple of properties that have signed a consent, and there was language on former consents that had language on being able to withdraw from the annexation. And so on the Seabridge property, we did get one of those letters where they formally requested to withdraw from the annexation.

1:14:109

Okay, because I heard a couple of people say they may be submitting that that withdraw. They said that would be okay. And there's a couple up here that said, hey, yes, we need to go forward on that.

1:14:2015

Like I said, it was on certain there was a certain time period that that language is on the consent. We'll have to look at each one of those individually.

1:14:279

There was also a question if Sandy annexes them in and Granite goes through, can Granite annex them back into Granite? Or is that once it's in

1:14:3615

the Sandy, they can't go back? Yeah, once it's in the Sandy, it's in Sandy.

1:14:39 – 1:14:579

Because I sort of heard some of that concern going on there. From my understanding, we're making a recommendation basically just to move forward with these to the city council and the city council make a decision basically answer all the concerns that this audience had today.

1:14:5715

Yeah, there will be a public hearing on April 7 and that starts at 05:15 in front of the city council, same location.

1:15:061

Thank you. Any other questions?

1:15:09 – 1:15:305

Yeah. Right. Maybe just stay there. So on mister Cox's document here, these items here were it's talked about the water annexation contractually forbidden documentation. So do we have any of these items on here tonight? They're still on the agenda that

1:15:3015

I haven't seen his letter so I don't know what property is referring to and I don't know enough information on that contract. We would have to have our legal.

1:15:395

Okay. If we went ahead and and and had provided a recommendation obviously this is City Council makes the final comment.

1:15:473

That's correct. Anything on these would be so we would just make a recommendation.

1:15:525

At this point. Yeah. And then all that would be figured out afterwards.

1:15:561

Correct. That's correct.

1:15:575

Yeah. Be probably going

1:15:589

to our attorneys before it came to the city council probably. Okay.

1:16:05 – 1:16:205

And then there was that question about the Dimpletoe Road cross hatch. Maybe if you could provide some additional clarity on Was that part of the map, the plot previously? Yes.

1:16:21 – 1:16:3515

In a number of annexations we've done since the state passed that bill, you know others have expressed interest. They have to be contiguous and we have included sections of Dimpledale Road on the past. And so we just did that same same process on Okay. This

1:16:42 – 1:17:425

And then we had some general discussion prior, we all visited these properties as a planning commission on a bus and we had some general discussion about R140 A versus R140 and these R140 A recommend sorry sorry the R140 recommendations they'll had R143 designation in the county and that designation also offered animal rights. Correct. Correct. And I think as a planning commission, we talked about particularly those properties that were near the Granite Park and Dimple Dell recreational park areas that were zoned R140 A sorry R1 recommended to be R140 to I think to come in at R140 A is the how we generally discuss that. So I think we'll see that in some of the motions.

1:17:441

Did that complete your? That's all I had. Denise, did you have some questions?

1:17:502

Nope, I don't have any questions.
