Pleasant Grove City Council Meeting 5/19/2026

The Pleasant Grove City Council held a meeting on May 19, 2026, focusing heavily on budget amendments, zoning changes, and development agreements related to local infrastructure and commercial development. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of budget adjustments for road projects totaling over $5.5 million, water impact fee allocations, and general fund expenditures for city services such as the pool and fire department. The council considered zoning ordinance changes proposed by St. John Properties to remove a mixed-use overlay and apply a growth business park overlay to certain parcels, allowing for flex space and light manufacturing. After extensive discussion, the council voted 3-2 to deny the zoning changes due to concerns about the appropriateness of flex space at the city gateway and potential impacts on sales tax revenue. Additionally, the council unanimously approved a resolution authorizing an easement for Rocky Mountain Power to support a new cell tower project. The meeting also included discussions on parking enforcement strategies and the proposed property tax increase to fund police and fire department staffing. Overall, the meeting addressed significant capital improvement projects, development agreements, and budgetary considerations impacting future procurement and city planning.
