Request Type: Zoning Map Amendment
Location: 927 and 929 S Navajo Street
Zone: R-1/5,000 Single-Family Residential (Current); RMF-30 Low Density Multi-Family Residential (Proposed)

The 45 day period ends on October 28, 2023.

Request Description:
Mayor Mendenhall has initiated a petition to amend the zoning map for city owned properties located at 927 and 929 S Navajo Street. The proposal would rezone the properties from R-1/5000 – Single-Family Residential, to RMF-30 – Low Density Multi-Family Residential. The property at 929 S Navajo Street currently includes a stretch of the 9-Line Trail between Navajo Street and Emery Street. As part of this project, the lot lines would be adjusted to create a lot exclusively for the 9-Line Trail while creating a second lot containing approximately 41,000 SF of developable land. The proposed amendment to the zoning map is intended to promote infill housing development goals identified in the Westside Master Plan. The policies related to established neighborhoods identify that there is “some opportunity for incremental additions to density and minor adjustments to the development pattern within the Glendale and Poplar Grove neighborhoods” (pg. 26). The recommendation in the plan is for future housing to be compatible in terms of building height, bulk, setbacks, architecture, landscaping, and building materials and recognizes that zoning changes will be required to accomplish this.

The Planning Division will hold an online Open House to solicit comments on this project. The Open House will be hosted on the city’s website: https://www.slc.gov/planning/online-open-houses/ beginning Monday, September 18, 2023 and will remain open until the City Council makes a decision on the application.

Request Description:
Salt Lake City has initiated a request to amend the zoning map for the property located at 756 South Montgomery Street. The proposal would rezone the property from R-1/5000, Single-Family Residential District to a zoning district that would support low density multi-family housing, to help create scaled housing choices as recommended in the Westside Plan. RMF-30, Low Density Multi-Family Residential District, and SR-3, Special Development Pattern Residential District, are possible choices. Other zones may be considered based on community input. The lot is approximately 0.51 acres or 22,215 square feet in size. The property is located in the Airport Flight Path Protection Overlay District, in Influence Zone H, which limits the height of new buildings as determined by the Department of Airports.
