CHAIRMAN AND COMMISSIONERS: The meeting was called to order at 05:30 p.m. All present included Chairman Jeffrey Loris, Commissioner Adel Murphy, Commissioner Lance Anderson, and Commissioner Bryan Pack.

Staff Attending: Dale Coulam-City Manager/Attorney, Sharon Allen-Deputy City Recorder.

Dale Coulam stated that this is located at Center Street and 400 West and Suncrest West surrounds it. It had a connecting road from Suncrest and it was required to have an access off 400 West. That really tied their hands on what type of plan they could come up with. It is 14 lots 10,000 sq ft or larger. The zoning was changed to R-1-10 and it complies with the zoning.

3)	BUSINESS LICENSES -None

4)	PUBLIC HEARING AND ACTION ITEMS-None

5)	DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL ACTION ITEMS-

Dale Coulam stated these dates are scheduled two days before City Council meetings, and there are a few months that have three because several City Council meetings fall on the 1st of the month. We are not required to hold two meetings a month. Commissioner Bryan Pack stated he would like to remove February 14, 2016 due to Valentines Day.

MOTION: Commissioner Bryan Pack moved to approve the Planning Commission Meeting Schedule for Calendar Year 2017, with the removal of the February 14, 2016 meeting.
SECOND: Commissioner Adel Murphy

VOTE: The motion carried unanimously.

MOTION: Commissioner Adel Murphy moved to approve the Ivins City Planning Commission minutes for November 15, 2016.
SECOND: Commissioner Bryan Pack

VOTE: The motion carried unanimously.

Dale Coulam stated that we have talked about changing the mobile home zoning districts and getting rid of that designation and changing them closer to their actual zoning. Across from Lightfoots would be changed to R-1-5 except where there is multi-family in two locations. The second area is in the old township and it is a mixture of R-1-10, some sections of 12.5 and a little multi-family. So when we look on the land use plan in the old township, we see a sea of blue, medium density residential and a little high density residential that was the multi-family, but 12.5 and 10,000 fit in medium density zoning. We had some discussion about going into the old township and designating some areas as high density residential. Kevin Rudd at that time brought up the idea of twin-homes. The City has received a couple of inquiries about that, but first they have to change the land use plan. What would the reaction be to have a little dot of green, high density residential, in the big sea of blue, medium density residential? Some areas that still have trailers would be an upgrade in that area. The trade-off of a single wide trailer versus a twin-home. Commissioner Bryan Pack stated if it upgrades what is there and it won't clash with what has been redeveloped then it's a great idea. Dale Coulam stated that the concern may be more with the City Council. He will make a similar report to them and it will probably be placed on a future agenda for discussion.

Dale Coulam stated that he wants to further clarify legislative and administrative decisions to follow statutes and case law before we change zoning on those big areas.

MOTION: Commissioner Lance Anderson moved to approve ADJOURNMENT
SECOND: Commissioner Bryan Pack
