Proposed Project Overview
Mayor Erin Mendenhall has initiated a Zoning Map Amendment request on behalf of Salt Lake City to amend the zoning for property located at approximately 237 and 239 S 1000 E. Currently the property has split zoning, with portions of the property zoned R-2 (Single- and Two-Family Residential District), SR-3 (Special Development Pattern Residential District), and PL (Public Lands District).
The zoning amendment would amend the zoning for the property to entirely be PL (Public Lands District). The purpose of the amendment is to zone the property with a district that aligns with and supports the public uses on the property. The property is occupied by the 10th East Senior Center and Victory Park.
