# Midvale City Planning Commission 10/14/2026

The Midvale City Planning Commission meeting on October 14, 2026, considered two city-initiated zoning code amendments. On a proposal to define and prohibit halfway houses and residential reentry centers in zoning districts, commissioners raised concerns about a blanket prohibition and discussed whether appropriate locations could be identified. A motion to recommend approval failed; the commission then voted to recommend against approval. The City Council will make the final decision. No contract awards, purchases, or spending actions were identified.

The commission unanimously recommended approval of a separate amendment aligning Midvale’s land-use appeal rules with Utah state code, including narrowing who may appeal a land-use decision and present evidence at an appeal hearing. In staff updates, commissioners were told that the City Council had denied a Jordan Bluff Zone amendment concerning sidewalks and tabled a right-of-way amendment until it could receive input from the city engineer. These were land-use matters; no procurement activity was identified.
