LaVerkin meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

LaVerkin agendas: four rezonings, a $166,069.58 bill list and water reports — but no minutes yet

Three LaVerkin bodies were scheduled to meet in the past two weeks: the Planning Commission on Oct. 14, the City Council on Oct. 21 and the Water Board Committee on Oct. 22. As of Oct. 26, no minutes had been published for any of the three. The records available are agendas, which list what each body intended to take up. Nothing below is an outcome. Where an item called for a vote, the result is not yet documented, and no vote tallies are available.

City Council: four rezoning ordinances and a bill list

The Oct. 21 City Council agenda listed checks and invoices totaling $166,069.58 for approval. That figure is the amount presented for approval, not a confirmed payment.

The same agenda listed four ordinances to rezone land:

• Ordinances 2026-18 and 2026-19 would rezone 740 N Main Street and SR-17 from General Commercial and Retail Commercial to Multi-Family Residential.
• Ordinance 2026-20 would rezone 1.97 acres between 300 S and 100 W from Low Density Residential to General Commercial.
• Ordinance 2026-21 would rezone 3.03 acres between 300 S and 100 W from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential.

The council was also scheduled to review and approve Verkada camera locations.

Planning Commission: recommendations on the same four parcels

The Planning Commission met Oct. 14 to consider recommending approval of four zoning map amendments covering the same properties. The agenda described the 740 N Main Street and SR-17 change as a move to Multi-Family Residential (R-3-6); the council ordinances listed the same destination without the zone code in the agenda text.

The commission was also scheduled to discuss scheduling public hearings for Dec. 9, 2026, on amendments to the city's sign ordinance and general plan.

Water Board: reports and updates

The Water Board Committee's Oct. 22 agenda was made up of reports and discussion items: a water purchase report by Kyle Gubler, a report by Mayor Wilson on the Virgin River Distribution System Water Users meeting, a Secondary Water Conservation Plan report by Kyle Lovelady, and culinary and irrigation water management and project updates by Derek Imlay. The agenda listed no action items for the board.

What is not yet known

Because minutes have not been published, it is not established whether the council adopted any of the four ordinances, whether the $166,069.58 in checks and invoices was approved, or what the Planning Commission recommended. Absence of minutes is not evidence that a vote failed or that an item was dropped; it means the record of what happened has not yet been made public.

Coming up

No upcoming meetings were listed for the next 14 days in the information provided. The Planning Commission agenda referenced proposed public hearings for Dec. 9, 2026, on the sign ordinance and the general plan; those dates were listed as proposed and fall outside the two-week window.

LaVerkin Council Weighs Merit Pay, Computech Contract; Planning Commission Meeting Canceled

The LaVerkin City Council held two meetings in the past two weeks, including a public hearing on employee merit pay and a vote on a proposed ordinance for raises for top staff. However, minutes from those meetings have not yet been published, so the outcomes of the items are not yet known. The Planning Commission also canceled its upcoming August 26 meeting.

City Council: Merit pay and other business

At its August 12 meeting, the council held a public hearing on a proposed ordinance that would approve merit increases in compensation for all city employees. The increases are considered outside the budget adoption or amendment process, under Utah Code §10-3-818. Written comments were accepted via email to nancy.cline@laverkin.gov.

At its August 19 meeting, the council held a public hearing and considered approval of Ordinance No. 2026-17, which would provide merit increases for the Directors, City Recorder, City Treasurer, and City Administrator. The agenda also included consideration of a contract with Computech, and Proclamation No. 2026-03 declaring September 17-24, 2026, as Constitution Week. The consent agenda included checks and invoices totaling $195,566.60. The agenda also listed an item titled "Introduction of La Verkin Gherkin and public apology."

No vote tallies or final decisions are available because minutes have not been published.

Planning Commission: Sign Ordinance and other items

At its August 12 meeting, the Planning Commission discussed and possibly set a public hearing for August 26, 2026, regarding the Sign Ordinance. The commission also received presentations and discussed the current Development Agreement and the proposed 2026 Construction Standards and Drawings. The meeting included routine approval of minutes from the July 22, 2026 regular meeting.

Coming up

The Planning Commission meeting scheduled for August 26, 2026, at 6:00 pm in the City Council Chambers, 111 South Main Street, has been canceled. The agenda contains no items for discussion or action.

No other upcoming meetings are listed in the next 14 days.
