Planning Commission Meeting - October 23, 2025

Meeting Summary

The October 23 Planning Commission meeting handled four items spanning zone changes, subdivision review, and a major downtown planning document. The commission considered Eric Smith's request to rezone 0.40 acres at 235 West State Street from R-2 Medium Density Residential to Neighborhood Commercial, and Gardner Company's Skye Area Plan Amendment, which proposed revisions to the General Nonresidential Design Requirements for Mixed-Use zones. Both items received positive recommendations and were subsequently approved by the City Council at the November 18 meeting. The commission also reviewed John Hadfield's preliminary subdivision application for the Overview development, a 3-lot subdivision at 600 East Utah Highlands Drive.\n\nThe major item of the evening was the Downtown Revitalization Plan and State Street Station Area Plan — a broad planning document covering Main Street and State Street through the heart of Lehi's historic downtown. The plan examines land use, street design, active transportation networks, and the area within a half mile of a future transit station. The item was tabled at the October 23 meeting and rescheduled for a public hearing at the November 13 Planning Commission meeting, allowing additional time for review of the extensive planning document. Residents with interest in the future of downtown Lehi are encouraged to follow this ongoing process through the city's Engage Lehi platform.
