Park City roundup: 106-unit Kearns Boulevard proposal, Payday Drive contract amendment and Snow League permit top recent agendas

Park City boards and the City Council listed seven meetings over the past two weeks, and as of Oct. 19 no minutes had been published for any of them. That means no votes, approvals or final outcomes are available yet — what follows is what each body was scheduled to take up, drawn from the published agendas.

The heaviest land-use item was a 106-unit mixed-use proposal at Kearns Boulevard and Bonanza Drive. The City Council, meanwhile, was set to consider a contract amendment capped at $307,016.76 for Payday Drive traffic calming and a special event permit for The Snow League at Park City Mountain in January 2027.
