Petition Number: PLNPCM2021-01124 and PLNPCM2021-01134
Zoning District: A-2 (Agricultural) and Unincorporated Salt Lake County
Overlay District: Airport Flight Path Protection – Mix of Zones A, B and C
Council District: District 1 – Represented by Victoria Petro-Eschler
JWright Communities, LLC, the property owner is requesting a zoning map amendment for a parcel of land located at 2350 N Rose Park Lane. The requested change is from the AG-2 – Agricultural District to the RMF-75 – High Density Multi-Family Residential District. In conjunction with this request, the owner has filed a petition to annex an adjacent parcel of land he owns from unincorporated Salt Lake County into Salt Lake City. The parcel located at 2441 N Rose Park Lane is approximately 17 acres in size. As part of the annexation, the property a is proposed to be zoned RMF-75. The City has added an additional parcel of City-owned property into the annexation portion of this request. The 5.94 acre parcel located at 2440 N Rose Park is owned by Salt Lake City but is located within unincorporated Salt Lake County. The annexation of the parcel located at 2441 N Rose Park Lane, if successful, would render this parcel as an “island” of unincorporated land surrounded by properties located within Salt Lake City. To eliminate this condition, this City-owned property would be annexed into Salt Lake City boundaries and would likely be zoned OS – Open Space at City Council’s discretion. The OS zoning would be in line with the zoning of the adjacent City properties that are part of the Salt Lake City Regional Athletic Complex.
