Development

SYRACUSE — The Ninigret Group, LC, has officially acquired 185 acres in Syracuse in preparation of developing a mixed-used development to be known as Ninigret Park North.

FARMINGTON — A small development of nine single-family homes, on a small nook of property in the center of the city, has been given approval to move forward.

CLINTON -- Owners of property located at approximately 2565 West on the south side of 1800 North recently petitioned the city council to consider a request be sent to the planning commission for rezoning the property to allow for patio home development.

BOUNTIFUL -- The development of a 29-lot subdivision at approximately 600 North and 400 East has been given the green light, as city officials recently voted to grant final plat approval for the project.

The council voted 4-0 to finalize the approval process for the project, which will be located on 8.3 acres of land located in an area zoned R-4 and R-4 PDO.

FARMINGTON -- The city council has approved a schematic plan and preliminary unit development master plan for an 11-unit townhouse subdivision at approximately 123 West and 620 South.

The proposed schematic, approved during a recent city council meeting, contains a total of 11 units on .775 acres of property. The project is located in an R-8 zone. Scott Balling is the applicant for the proposed development known as the Kestrel Bay Townhomes PUD Subdivision.

LAYTON — Voters were rejecting two land referendum questions in voting Tuesday night.

At 11 p.m., the vote on Proposition 2 was 10.292 in favor and 11,169 opposed. The vote on Proposition 3 was 10,239 in favor and 11,206 opposed. Votes had been counted in 30 of the 50 precincts.

The referendum questions challenge the West Layton plan policy change for 107 acres of farmland on the city’s west side and the adoption of an urban development code needed to create the urban community, known as West Layton Village, under the new policy. The property runs along Hill Field Road between 2200 West and 2700 West.

LAYTON — A citizens group, Residents for West Layton Village, is working to educate voters about a city-supported “village concept” in hopes it will be approved.

The group of about 100 members is in opposition to residents who raised objections at public hearings to a proposed 107-acre multi-use project consisting of single-family and multifamily dwellings, shopping and open space. The project is proposed for a site between 2200 West to 2700 West on West Hill Field Road.

Layton voters will have their say on the development via two related propositions on the Nov. 6 general election ballot.
