Plat Decisions in Eagle Mountain

A plat (or "subdivision plat") is a surveyed map that divides a larger parcel of land into individual lots, streets, easements, and public spaces. Once recorded with the county, the plat creates legally recognized parcels that can be individually sold, transferred, and developed. ZoneWire tracks plat activity across Eagle Mountain, UT public meetings.

Tracking plat in Eagle Mountain surfaces zoning and development signals early, so developers, investors, and brokers can evaluate parcels and approvals before they reach the broader market.

Eagle Mountain's zoning regulations are set out in the Eagle Mountain Municipal Code (EMMC), Title 17 - Zoning, which covers land use definitions, zoning districts, permitted and conditional uses, and development standards. The city's Planning Department administers these regulations and provides resources such as the zoning map, future land use maps, and Master Development Agreements (MDAs). The code is adopted under Utah's Municipal Land Use, Development, and Management Act (LUDMA) and the city's general plan.

Under EMMC Chapter 17.25, all land planned for residential use falls within one of the city's residential zones. These include RA1 (minimum lot size five acres / 217,800 sq ft), RA2 (2.5 acres / 108,900 sq ft), RD1 (one acre / 43,560 sq ft), RD2 (one-half acre / 21,780 sq ft), Foothill Residential (FR, one-quarter acre / 10,890 sq ft), R1 (one-quarter acre / 10,890 sq ft), R2 (8,000 sq ft), R3 (6,500 sq ft), RC (4,500 sq ft), and the multifamily zones MF1 (maximum 10 dwelling units per acre) and MF2 (maximum 20 dwelling units per acre).

A proposed zone change is first heard by the Planning Commission, which makes a recommendation to the City Council. The City Council then reviews the proposal and makes the final decision. The city sends notices in accordance with state and city codes for the required public hearings, and affected property owners have up to 10 days after the first public hearing to submit a written objection to the change for their property.

The Planning Commission reviews development proposals for code compliance and makes recommendations to the City Council, and it makes the final call on matters such as home businesses, accessory apartments, and conditional use permits. It has five voting members plus one alternate and meets twice each month, with a work session at 5:30 p.m. (projects, code changes, and concept plans) followed by a policy session at 6:30 p.m. (decisions, actions, and public hearings).

Yes. In both the MF1 and MF2 multifamily zones, EMMC Chapter 17.25 requires that a minimum of 10 percent of new residential development be dedicated to moderate income housing (MIH) units, priced for occupancy by households with a gross income equal to or less than 80 percent of the median gross income for Utah County, consistent with Section 10-9a-103 of the Utah Code.
