# 10.06.2026 Special Council and Planning Commission Meeting

The October 6, 2026 Special Council and Planning Commission meeting focused on consultant House of Levine’s recommendations for West Valley City’s future land use map as part of the general plan. Members discussed preserving remaining larger residential parcels, choosing appropriate density for potential redevelopment, and aligning future development with neighborhood character and infrastructure capacity. One participant cited approximately $10 million in water infrastructure costs associated with a prior apartment development, which they said contributed to increased water rates for residents.

The discussion also covered underperforming commercial areas and possible redevelopment along Redwood Road and other corridors, including conceptual high-rise or mixed-use housing near the mall and other strategic locations. Members raised considerations such as airport height limits, transit, parking, acquisition costs, and development feasibility; a cultural or food-focused destination and a sports complex were also mentioned as ideas for further consideration. No contracts, procurement awards, spending approvals, or votes were identified; the proposals discussed were conceptual feedback for the land use plan.
