SUBJECT: PLNPCM2021-01124 Hunter Stables Annexation located at approximately
STAFF CONTACT: Nick Norris, Planning Director (nick.norris@slcgov.com or 801-535-6173)
DOCUMENT TYPE: Resolution
RECOMMENDATION: That the Council accept the annexation application by adopting the
resolution. If accepted, it means that the City will process the Annexation proposal and return to
the City Council for a final decision as prescribed by Utah Code.
BUDGET IMPACT: None at this time.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: On September 23, 2021 the Notice of Intent to Annex was
received by the City Recorder’s office. Following the receipt of the County’s certification of
mailing (as required by State Code 10-2-403(2)) on October 27, 2021, the City Recorder’s
office provided the Petition to the applicant.
Upon receipt of the Petition on November 1, 2021, the County was notified by the petitioner
and notice was provided via email to the City Council of the completed Petition submission.
The Planning Division assigned PLNPCM2021-01124 to this application and the fee was paid.
The City Council is now tasked to determine if they accept the Petition by resolution or deny by
motion within the 14-day window from the date of the notice. For this reason, the Council has
provided the option to transmit the information and Petition speedily. If no action is taken
within the 14-day window, the Petition will be considered accepted.

If the Council accepts the Petition a 30-day period of noticing begins, and a Certification of
Petition requirements met is completed. Upon Certification, within 10 days the Recorder’s
office on behalf of the Council will mail a notice to each owner of real property locating within
the proposed annexation area and post physical notices, post notice on the Utah Public Meeting
Site, post on the website, and mail written notice to each affected entity. At this stage, protests
may be submitted regarding the annexation. If protests are filed, the City Recorder will
coordinate with appropriate entities and provide a written update to the City Council.
Upon resolving protests, or if no protests are filed, the City Council is required to hold a public
hearing. Prior to the public hearing, the Planning Division will provide a transmittal with the
proposed ordinance to annex the property with a proposed zoning. Adopting the zoning of the
property is done as part of the annexation process and is not subject to the typical zoning
process outlined in Utah Code or in City Ordinance. The rationale behind that is that the city
cannot apply zoning outside of the city boundaries and State Code requires all land within the
City to be zoned and therefore the zoning is adopted at the same time as the annexation is
approved.
State Code also does not require a recommendation from the Planning Commission on
annexations or on the proposed zoning associated with annexed land. However, the City
Council has the discretion to ask the Planning Commission for a recommendation.
The annexation process is not subject to the 45-day public notice required by City Code. Due to
noticing requirements outlined in Utah Code, applying the 45-day notice period may result in
the City Council not being able to comply with the timing requirements for annexations in State
Code.
The Petition includes a desired zoning designation of RMF-75. This zoning district would
allow buildings up to 75 feet in height. According to the annexation Petition, the land to be
annexed includes 17.21 acres of land. In the RMF-75 zoning district density is calculated at 500
square feet per unit for properties over one acre in size. This could result in as many as 1,499
housing units on the property. The zoning will be further analyzed if the Council accepts the
petition.
PUBLIC PROCESS: Notices required to be completed through the Annexation process has
been completed.

RESOLUTION NO. ________ OF 2021
ACCEPTING A PETITION TO ANNEX A PARCEL OF LAND AT
2350 NORTH ROSE PARK LANE FOR FURTHER CONSIDERATION
PURSUANT TO UTAH CODE SECTION 10-2-405
WHEREAS, on November 1, 2021, JAW Development, LLC (“Petitioner”) submitted a
petition (Petition No. PLNPCM2021-01124) to annex into Salt Lake City approximately 17 acres
of land located at 2350 North Rose Park Lane in unincorporated Salt Lake County (the
“Property”); and
WHEREAS, the Property is contiguous to the corporate limits of Salt Lake City and is
identified as an expansion area described as “Study Area 1 - West Airport” in the city’s
annexation policy plan titled, “A MASTER ANNEXATION POLICY DECLARATION for Salt
Lake City, Utah” adopted in 1979 and as shown on the map accompanying that plan titled,
“SALT LAKE CITY Annexation Policy Declaration Proposed Future Boundaries”; and
WHEREAS, Utah Code Section 10-2-405 provides that a municipal legislative body
may, within 14 days of receiving an annexation petition, accept an annexation petition for further
consideration or deny it; and
WHEREAS, accepting an annexation petition for further consideration pursuant to
Section 10-2-405 does not constitute final approval of the annexation by the municipal
legislative body and does not establish whether any particular zoning designation may be
appropriate for potentially annexed land; and
WHEREAS, because the Property is within Salt Lake City’s expansion area in its 1979
annexation policy plan and because the Property is congruous to Salt Lake City corporate limits,
the Salt Lake City Council finds that it should accept the subject annexation petition for further
consideration.
NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah:
That Petitioner’s petition to annex approximately 17 acres into Salt Lake City is hereby
accepted by the Salt Lake City Council for further consideration as provided by Utah Code
Section 10-2-405.
DATED this ______ day of ________________, 2021.
Passed by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah, this _____ day of
