Santaquin City Planning Commission Meeting - June 9, 2026

The Santaquin City Planning Commission met on June 9, 2026, to discuss several land use and zoning matters. Key procurement-related discussions included a proposed rezone of approximately 2.5 acres from residential agricultural to residential commercial to facilitate a daycare business transition. The commission expressed concerns about the residential commercial zoning due to potential inappropriate uses and recommended the applicant pursue a commercial (C1) zoning instead, which aligns with surrounding properties. The commission voted unanimously to forward a negative recommendation for the residential commercial rezone to the City Council. Additionally, the commission reviewed and unanimously approved a code amendment related to single-family residential landscaping requirements to comply with state changes, and they approved a preliminary subdivision plan for a two-lot subdivision at 130 South Church Street, which includes plans for a church building. No direct contract awards or vendor selections were discussed, but the zoning and land use decisions could impact future commercial development and related procurement activities in the city.
