What is the project?

What’s a “planned development?”

Jake Williams of C.W. Urban (applicant) seeks to build a 70-unit apartment building (“The Birdie”) with a building height of 82-feet, which is below the 100-foot minimum building height for a corner building in the D-1 Central Business District. This requires processing the application as a planned development.

Chapter 21A.55 of the Salt Lake City ZoningOrdinance.

In this case, the Planning Commission will be asked to modify the 100-foot minimum building height requirement so that the applicant can construct a shorter building.

Every planned development project must achieve at least one city objective through the planned development process. Each objective includes strategies that the applicant can use to demonstrate how their project meets the objective.

“The Birdie” seeks to achieve the objective of fulfilling the goals of the Downtown Community Plan.
