754 S. State St Rezone
Description:
The Council is considering a proposal to rezone 10 parcels at approximately 754 S State Street. If approved, the property owner, Intermountain Healthcare, states they intend to redevelop the property and build a hospital.
The property was long home to the Sears building, which operated from 1947 to 2018, before being demolished.
Details:
The property owner is asking for the property to be rezoned from the current Downtown Support District (D-2) zone to a Central Business District (D-1) zone. The property owner is also requesting that “Hospital” and “Ambulance service” be added to the list of approved uses in the Central Business District zone.
