Subdivision plans in Layton get final OK

Last updated Friday, April 20, 2012 - 11:22pm

LAYTON — City officials have given final approval to plans to develop phase 3 of the Estates at Mutton Hollow Subdivision, a project calling for 40 lots for single-family homes in the southeastern portion of the city.

In recent action, the council voted unanimously to grant final plat approval to phase 3. The project involves about 12.58 acres at approximately 1150 East and 250 South. Preliminary plans for the project were approved last September, and phase 1 and 2 are currently under construction.

The development area was annexed into the city last year.

OGDEN -- Terry Butler says fixing up his central Ogden home will take a lot of work, but with a little help and a step-by-step approach, it can be done.

Ogden officials seem to be considering a similar philosophy for the neighborhood as a whole, as they study whether to expand the Exterior Rehabilitation Loan Program.

The program is part of a larger initiative to spruce up east-central Ogden, specifically the area between 20th and 30th streets from Washington Boulevard to Harrison Boulevard.

LAYTON -- A village center proposal on the city's west side, akin to Daybreak in Salt Lake County, is moving forward after city leaders approved the concept.

The city council approved three separate measures related to creating a unique development on Hill Field Road property owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, despite vocal opposition from a large contingent of west-side residents who packed the council chambers.

The property is near the stretch from 2200 West to 2700 West, just south of Hill Field Road.
