Shawn Poor, representing Brighton Homes was present. City Planner Curtis Poole presented the City Planner Poole indicated that this item was initiated by Brighton Homes and they have requested at text amendment to allow ai temporary sales office in the residential zones. Staffhas done research with ten (10) cities in Utah. Out of the ten (10) cities only two (2), Farmington and Bountiful, mentioned anything about sales trailers and it was to expressly prohibit them. Bountiful City does allow model homes but not temporary sales offices. Approval oft this text amendment would make changes across all the residential zones. Placing at temporary sales office on site would likely be ina potentially landscaped area which would not allow the completion ofthe landscaping. The applicant item. is proposing that the text amendment should read: Temporary sales office in trailers. Temporary sales offices incidental to a. specific residential project may be located on the site ofsuch a project. The trailer may remain) for the duration ofthe project and shall be removed within thirly (30) days afier substantial completion of the project. The current code states the following: 3. Temporary sales offices in trailers.

This allows the model home to be built before the sales trailer is removed which would not replace a construction Planning Director Astorga discussed that in Bountiful tiny homes are allowed as long as they havea permanent foundation and that they are hooked up to typical utilities. Tiny homes are allowed as typical single-family dwellings and not as temporary residential structures. homea and not ai temporary home.

He noted that a Conditional Use Permit is an allowed use and could be used to accommodate and regulate the approval of a temporary sales trailer. Staff did not find any compelling evidence to go in this direction and felt that the negative recommendation is the best. Commissioner Spratley was: surprised to see ai negative recommendation from staffbecause the sales trailers could be beneficial and helpful and does not see a negative impact. City Planner Poole noted City Engineer Cheney stated that in looking at past projects Staff does see potential negative impacts during construction on small lots with construction parking and then adding a temporary sales trailer. Chair Monson feels that temporary trailers make sense on large sites but would prefer a time limit. Commissioner Clark indicated that he agrees with staff members and the negative recommendation. Commissioner Bawden stated that hel believes the text change is for a business strategy.
