Kaysville Council to weigh $16.5M bond election, rezone requests
The Kaysville City Council this week considered a resolution that would call a special bond election on November 3, 2026, for up to $16.5 million in general obligation bonds. The council also took up two rezone requests, an appointment, and other business. All items are from agendas; minutes have not yet been published, so no final decisions are recorded.
Bond election resolution
At a special meeting on August 10, the council considered a resolution to place a $16,500,000 general obligation bond question before voters. The meeting was held at Kaysville City Hall, 23 East Center Street, and was live-streamed on YouTube via KaysvilleLive.com. The agenda contained only this substantive item.
Council business on August 20
The council's regular meeting on August 20 included two rezone requests:
- Rezone 820 Mare Circle from A-5 Heavy Agricultural to R-1-6 Single-Family Residential.
- Rezone 1800 South Sunset Drive from R-A and A-1 to R-1-14 Single-Family Residential.
The council also considered a resolution authorizing procurement of directional boring services for the Power Department, discussed accessory dwelling unit code amendments to comply with Senate Bill 284, and considered the appointment of Brad McIlrath as Community Development Director.
Planning Commission: ADU code changes
On August 13, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on amendments to the Internal Accessory Dwelling Unit code (17-31-3) to comply with Senate Bill 284. The proposed text amendment would allow detached accessory dwelling units (DADUs) on single-family lots larger than 11,000 square feet and establish a process for converting legal accessory structures to DADUs. The commission also discussed possible action on Accessory Structures code requirements and approved minutes from its July 23 meeting.
Audiovisual system replacement
Kaysville City issued a request for proposals on August 17 to replace aging audiovisual systems in four spaces: the City Council Chambers, Council Conference Room, Staff Conference Room, and Police Department Emergency Operations Center. The existing systems, some up to 12 years old, have become unreliable. Proposals are due September 30, 2026, with a pre-proposal site walk on September 8. The city prefers systems with at least a 10-year useful life and requires that Council Chambers recording not depend on internet or YouTube.
Impact fee update
On August 21, the council issued a notice of intent to prepare or amend its Impact Fee Facilities Plan and Impact Fee Analysis. The process will evaluate fees for new development related to parks, public safety, water, storm water, municipal power, and transportation. Written comments may be submitted to the City Manager at 23 East Center Street.
