Verizon Wireless -2066 South 2100 East At the LUZ meeting April 18 , we had a presentation and the land use committee agreed to forward a favorable recommendation to the Planning Commission for an (antenna) on the top of the building at NW corner of 2100 South and 2300 East  (Former Great Harvest location). The utility box will be at the rear of the building, and this antenna will be about 10 feet high and barely visible from the street.  The LUZ took a vote and decided that this was straightforward and did not need to come to the SHCC for a presentation.  I have written a letter to the Planning Commission recommending approval.

On the March 9 Planning Commission Agenda, there was a Master Plan and Zoning Map Amendment at approximately 1964 S 900 E – A request by Cottonwood Residential to amend the master plan and zoning map designation of eight properties near the intersection of Ramona Avenue and 900 E.  The Planning Commission unanimously denied the request.  We recently received word from Salt Lake City Planning that the developers have withdrawn this request.  We don’t know if they might develop the parcels  that they already own, without asking for a rezone.
