The owner of 1556 S 500 E has petitioned to rezone the property from single-family residential (R-1-5000) to Mixed Use 2 (MU-2), which would also require a General Plan amendment, to restore commercial use for neighborhood-serving retail. The property, a former hair salon converted to a home in 2018, is in Council District 5 and the proposal is under review.
Official description: Carson Cronk, the property owner, has submitted a petition to amend the zoning map for (or rezone) the property located at approximately 1556 S 500 E from R-1-5000 Single-Family Residential District to MU-2 Mixed Use 2 District. The subject property was the site of a former hair salon that was converted to a single-family home in 2018. The purpose of the requested zoning change is to restore the building’s commercial designation, with the community benefit of providing commercial space for a local business to offer neighborhood-serving retail. Because the proposal does not align with the adopted future land use map in the Central Community Plan, an amendment to the General Plan for this area is also being considered as part of the request. This property is located within City Council District 5, represented by Erika Carlsen.
