SUMMIT COUNTY, Utah — The latest in a series of public meetings concerning the Cedar Crest Village Overlay will occur on May 16. The Eastern Summit County Planning Commission will convene to discuss Cedar Crest Village, a proposed development plan for the Hoytsville area. The meeting will be held at the Ledges Center located at 202 Park Road in Coalville, starting at 6 p.m. No final actions are set for this meeting.

The planning commission encourages community participation in the discussion to ensure that all viewpoints are considered in the developmental phase. This meeting provides a platform for residents to engage with local planners and express their opinions on their community’s future.

Background Information
The Cedar Crest Village Overlay proposal encompasses an area of approximately 1,085 acres, involving sixty-seven parcels collectively owned by thirty property owners from the Hoytsville area. This plan facilitates a community featuring diverse housing types, including townhomes, condominiums, and single-family homes.

Highlights from the April 18 Session
During the April 18 session, key figures provided insights into the proposed enabling ordinance. This ordinance includes development standards and a community structure plan that emphasizes “environmental sustainability, transportation solutions, and a mix of housing options to cater to different economic demographics.” The project proposes a density of up to four units per acre.

Infrastructure Needs and Planning
The proposal also outlines a phased infrastructure plan that includes a sewer plant capable of handling 500 Equivalent Residential Units (ERUs) per phase and explores various water-sourcing options, such as partnerships with existing water companies or the development of new facilities.
