The City of Farmington Planning Commission held a meeting on June 9, 2026, which included two public hearings and a discussion on zoning code updates. The commission approved a variance request from the Church of Saint Michael to exceed the maximum sign area for two monument signs by 16.5 square feet to accommodate electronic message boards, contingent upon obtaining sign and electrical permits. Additionally, the commission approved a conditional use permit for Chippendale HP LLC to operate a landscape company wholesale business, outdoor sales, and supply yard at 21034 Chippendale Avenue, with conditions including building permits, signage approval, a parking and striping plan, and an exterior screening plan. The meeting also featured a detailed update on the Farmington zoning code revision, focusing on downtown and Spruce Street zoning districts, parking standards, screening requirements, and the timing for public review and adoption, anticipated in late summer or early fall 2026. Commissioners discussed the importance of clear communication with residents regarding rezoning impacts and the need for flexibility in future land use planning.
