Harrisville council takes up FY 2026-2027 budget amendments; Planning Commission zoning hearing cancelled

Harrisville's City Council took up budget amendments and a slate of land, equipment and road items at its October 13 meeting, while a Planning Commission public hearing on citywide zoning changes set for October 14 was cancelled. No minutes have been published for either meeting, so the supplied record does not establish what was adopted, rejected or voted on.

Budget: Resolution 26-25

The council held a public hearing on Tuesday, October 13, 2026 at 7:00 PM at Harrisville City Hall, 363 West Independence Blvd, on Resolution 26-25, which would amend the city budget for fiscal year 2026-2027. The notice cites Utah Code §10-6-128 and was posted September 29, 2026. The notice states no dollar amounts or specific budget changes, and a public information handout referenced in the notice is not included in the supplied text. The agenda listed possible adoption of the resolution.

Equipment, roads and ordinances

Also listed on the October 13 agenda: possible approval of the Dixon Creek Basin Project and purchase of a Cat 926M loader; possible approval of Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Road Projects and sidewalk repairs; possible adoption of Ordinance 575 for a Master Development Agreement at 640 West Harrisville Rd; and possible adoption of Ordinance 577 regarding disposition of Municipal Real Property. Each was listed as possible action, and the record does not show whether any was acted on.

Planning Commission: zoning hearing cancelled

The Planning Commission public hearing scheduled for October 14, 2026 at 7:00 PM at Harrisville City Hall, 363 West Independence Blvd, was cancelled, according to the notice. It concerned Ordinance 579 Land Use Amendments, which would replace the R-5-6 Residential Zone with the R-5 Compact Single Family Residential Zone and the R-3 Residential Zone with the R-SA Single Family Attached Residential Zone, with city-wide applicability. The notice states the amendments would not change existing geographic boundaries on the official zoning map, and would update residential development standards including lot area, frontage, density, setbacks, parking and fencing. No new date or action is established in the supplied document. The notice text also references Ordinance 576 and an attachment titled "Public Hearing Notice Ordinance 576.pdf."

Retail site plan at 534 North Harrisville Road

A separate Planning Commission agenda entry for October 14 listed a preliminary/final site plan amendment for Lot #1 of the Harrisville Retail Subdivision at 534 North Harrisville Road, along with discussion of Land Use Code edits to replace the R-5-6 and R-3 designations. The supplied record does not establish whether the commission met or what it did with those items.

Access and contacts

ADA accommodations are available through the City Recorder's Office at 801.782.9648, requested at least three working days in advance. The notice lists Jack Fogal, jfogal@harrisvillecity.gov, 801-782-4100 x 1027, as the contact.

Coming up

No upcoming meetings for the next 14 days appear in the supplied data. Residents should check the city's official posting site for City Council and Planning Commission schedules; the posted agendas and notices are the authoritative record.

Harrisville budget amendment hearing leads the week; no outcomes yet published

Harrisville City Council was scheduled to hold a public hearing on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, on Resolution 26-25, which would amend the city budget for fiscal year 2026-2027. The hearing was set for 7:00 PM at Harrisville City Hall, 363 West Independence Blvd. The posted notice does not state dollar amounts or specific budget changes, and no minutes have been published, so what the council decided — if anything — is not established in the records supplied.

Budget hearing

The notice describes the item as a hearing to consider the resolution. It does not include the public information handout referenced in the posting, and it gives no figures for what would change in the budget.

Other items listed on the council agenda

The same October 13 agenda listed several items as possible actions:

Each is worded as a possible approval or adoption. The supplied records contain no vote tallies and no record of adoption for any of them.

Four development projects before Project Management

The Project Management body met October 8, 2026, with four development items on its agenda:

Only the agenda has been published. No recommendations or actions from that meeting appear in the supplied material.

Planning Commission: zoning hearing cancelled

A Planning Commission public hearing set for October 14, 2026 at 7:00 PM at Harrisville City Hall was cancelled, according to the notice. The cancelled hearing concerned Ordinance 579 Land Use Amendments, which would replace the R-5-6 Residential Zone with the R-5 Compact Single Family Residential Zone and the R-3 Residential Zone with the R-SA Single Family Attached Residential Zone, with city-wide applicability.

The notice states the amendments would not change existing geographic boundaries on the official zoning map, and that they would update residential development standards including lot area, frontage, density, setbacks, parking, and fencing. No new date or action is established in the supplied document. The notice text also references Ordinance 576 and a "Public Hearing Notice Ordinance 576.pdf" attachment.

A separate Planning Commission agenda entry for the same date lists a preliminary/final site plan amendment for Lot #1 of the Harrisville Retail Subdivision at 534 North Harrisville Road, and a discussion on Land Use Code edits to replace R-5-6 and R-3. The supplied records include both the cancellation notice and this agenda listing; they do not reconcile the two.

Coming up

No upcoming meetings were listed in the supplied data for the next 14 days. That does not establish that none are scheduled. Agendas and notices are posted by the city; residents can confirm dates and locations through Harrisville City's official postings and the City Recorder's Office at 801.782.9648.
