Scope and Content
Utah law authorizes each municipality to establish a planning commission(UCA 10-9-201(1)(a), 1997), and outlines the responsibilities of that commission. The planning commission is responsible for preparing and recommending a general plan for municipal growth and development, and for recommending zoning ordinances. The commission may be responsible for administering the provisions of the zoning ordinances. It can recommend approval or denial of subdivision applications, advise the legislative body, and hear or decide any matters that the legislative body designates, including the approval or denial of conditional use permits (UCA 10-9-204, 1997).
The Enoch City Council passed an ordinance creating a planning commission in 1980, and the commission held its first meeting on October 7 of that year. The planning commission immediately began gathering information for a general plan. The planning commission deals with issues such as annexation, building permits, conditional use applications, subdivision requests, and zoning ordinances. The minutes include the date and place of meeting, list those in attendance, and summarize the business discussed.
