AR2023-02-02 - Resolution Approving and Recommending Adoption of the Station Area Plan for Farmington Utah
end
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
LAC - Resolution
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Local Advisory Council approve Resolution AR2023-02-02 approving the Farmington Station Area Plan and recommending adoption by the Board of Trustees.
BACKGROUND:
The Farmington Frontrunner Station Area Plan was initiated by Farmington City, in collaboration with UTA, in 2020. Said plan was funded by the Transportation Land Use Connection (TLC) Program, facilitated by Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC). GSBS was selected as the project consultant through a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) process, also facilitated by WFRC.
This plan has officially been adopted by Farmington City and certified by WFRC, to satisfy requirements codified in 2022 by HB462 Utah Housing Affordability Amendments.
DISCUSSION:
The subject planning area is comprised of two sub areas: the Station Park area, and the North Station Area north of Park Lane, the total area being 550 acres.
• It is recommended by the plan that the current UTA park & ride facilities be reduced from 853 to 264 structured parking stalls. Such a reduction will require further negotiations with UDOT, due to a reversionary clause contained in the respective deed.
ALTERNATIVES:
The Farmington City Council has approved this plan. Additionally, WFRC has certified this plan to meet statutory requirements of HB462. Therefore, any modification to this plan will require further review and possible amendments by those two parties.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No immediate impact.
