1. Text Amendment to Chapter 21A.59 Design Review - The Planning Commission initiated a petition for a Text Amendment at the November 8, 2023, Planning Commission meeting that would make
changes to Chapter 21A.59 Design Review of city code. The purpose of the amendment is to clarify when each section applies to a project, ensure the code language clearly communicates the intent of the standard, and delete duplicative standards from the chapter. Additionally, the proposal introduces new design standards to further the purpose of the design review process.

2. R1 – Zoning Study- The Planning Commission will receive a briefing on a report that the Planning Division produced in response to a Council-initiated Legislative Intent requesting a study of the R-1
zoning districts. The report provides a history of single-family zoning in the city, a short analysis and options for each of the items requested, a summary of similar actions taken by other communities, a discussion of how each action aligns with adopted City policies, and a list of resources reviewed
during the research of the report. (Staff Contact: Nick Norris, Planning Director, at 801-535-6173 or nick.norris@slc.gov).
