Kevin Rudd provided handouts with information the Planning Commission previously discussed, relating to zone designations of R-1-7.5, R-1-5 and R-2-6. A copy of these handouts are available by request through Ivins City Hall.

There is currently no minimum size for single family dwellings. Modifying Regulations: 900 sq. ft. minimum dwelling unit size on the first floor and each unit shall have a minimum 400 sq. ft. two car garage.
