Summary
The Herriman Planning Commission approved a preliminary subdivision plat creating a public right-of-way and spur access to two proposed water tanks in the South Hills area, with a condition requiring road improvements when surrounding subdivisions are developed.
The Herriman Planning Commission on Feb. 5 voted unanimously to approve a preliminary subdivision plat to create public right-of-way and a spur road that will provide construction and future access to two water tanks planned in the South Hills area of the city.
City planning staff described the proposal as establishing a 90-foot public right-of-way with a spur road to reach the two tanks; staff said the spur will connect to the South Hills backbone road. The staff report and the city engineer also included a condition of approval that the road be improved when adjacent subdivisions begin development rather than being fully constructed at this stage.
Sheldon, the planning staff member presenting the item, said the current construction access would be a graded road for now and noted the code-required condition that the road be improved at the time of subdivision development. Planning staff recommended approval.
Commissioner Darrell moved to approve the preliminary plat with the staff condition; Commissioner Adam seconded. The commission then took a roll-call vote: Andrea — yes; Darrell — yes; Adam — yes; Heather — yes; Jackson — yes; Brody — yes. The motion passed.
No members of the public addressed the commission on this item during the public hearing. The approval is preliminary and includes the staff-directed condition that the road be improved when future subdivisions in the area proceed.
