The April 11, 2024 Lehi Planning Commission meeting featured a lengthy agenda of land-use items that primarily involved zone changes and preliminary subdivision reviews shaping future residential and commercial growth. Commissioners considered Brian Garrett's request for a zone change of 0.63 acres at 450 East 200 South from RA-1 (residential/agriculture) to R-2 (medium density residential), known as "Garrett's Way," along with Mark Skousen's request for Light Industrial zoning on the roughly 10.63-acre Hadco-Pacific Annexation at approximately 2100 North 1450 West. Several subdivision and development concepts were also reviewed. Andy Welch's "Grandeur Estates" came forward as a 9-lot residential preliminary subdivision at approximately 1650 South Center Street, while Tyson Fox presented the "Grant's Corner" commercial concept on 1.4 acres at 90 North 500 West. DR Horton's preliminary "Skye Plat B" was reviewed for 61 single-family homes and 271 townhomes at approximately 400 East Levengrove Drive — a significant medium-density project that will continue to influence ongoing conversations about housing supply and density in Lehi. The commission also held public hearings on city-initiated development code amendments to Chapter 12 (regulating fences over six feet) and Chapter 23 (regulating temporary signs). These items address quality-of-life and aesthetic standards that frequently generate code-enforcement questions from residents and businesses. Because the Planning Commission makes recommendations rather than final decisions on most zoning and subdivision items, all of the development requests reviewed at this meeting were on track to advance to the Lehi City Council for final action in subsequent weeks.
