Roy meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

Roy agendas: 24-home Cole West agreement, multi-family rezoning hearing, election and waste contracts

Roy's City Council and Planning Commission took up — or were scheduled to take up — a 24-home development agreement, a request to rezone a parcel on 4800 South for multi-family housing, and agreements covering election services and waste collection. Minutes from those meetings have not been published, so this roundup reports what was scheduled, not what was decided. The records provided contain no vote tallies and no dollar amounts.

Cole West agreement for 24 homes

The Oct. 6 City Council agenda, for a 5:30 PM meeting at 5051 S 1900 W, lists four action items. The first is Ordinance No. 26-14, a development agreement with Cole West LLC for 24 single-family dwellings on smaller lots at 5154 South 2700 West, identified as Parcels 09-035-0006 and 09-035-0021. The agenda lists the ordinance for action; the record does not show whether it passed.

Election services, voter areas, waste collection

The same agenda listed three resolutions: Resolution 26-26, an interlocal agreement with Weber County for election services for upcoming primary and general elections; Resolution 26-27, updating the City's voter participation areas; and Resolution 26-28, an "At Your Door Special Collection Service" agreement with Waste Management. The consent agenda carried the July 2026 and August 2026 financial statements. The meeting also included an employee recognition, a Waste Management presentation, and a public comment period limited to 3 minutes per speaker.

Multi-family rezoning hearing

The Planning Commission met Tuesday, Oct. 13, 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm in the City Council Chambers at 5051 South 1900 West. Two public hearings concerned property at approximately 2715 West 4800 South: an amendment to the General Plan Future Land Use Map from Single-Family Residential to Multi-Family Residential, and an amendment to the Zoning Map from RE-20 (Residential Estates) to R-3 (Multi-Family Residential). The public was invited to participate. The notice was posted October 01, 2026, and directs ADA accommodation requests to Steve Parkinson.

A discrepancy in the record

One of the two summaries of the Oct. 13 Planning Commission meeting also lists a site plan approval request for Ironwood Station at approximately 2275 West 3775 South. The other notice states that no other agenda items were listed. The supplied records do not resolve the difference, and no outcome for either item is recorded.

Coming up

The City Council meets Oct. 20. A public hearing is scheduled on Ordinance No. 26-15, compensation increases for specific city officers; one notice describes it as an ordinance adjusting compensation for Elective, Statutory, and Executive Officers of Roy City. The agenda also lists Resolution 26-29, a rental policy for the Roy City Hope Center Multi-Purpose Room (MPR) / A-B Room.

Residents who want the authoritative wording, attachments, and any later-published minutes should consult the official agendas and minutes posted by Roy City; those documents, not this summary, govern.

Roy City Council proposes 54.94% property tax increase; several meetings cancelled

The most significant item in the past two weeks is a proposed property tax increase that would raise an additional $2,807,745 per year for Roy City. The City Council held a public hearing on August 11 to consider adopting the FY2027 budget and setting the 2026 certified tax rate. The council has not yet published minutes, so no vote outcome is available.

Property tax increase proposal

The council heard a Truth-in-Taxation hearing on Resolution 26-24, which would adopt the FY2027 budget and set a tax rate that exceeds the certified rate. If approved, property tax revenue would increase by 54.94% over last year's budgeted revenue, excluding new growth. The additional funds are intended to cover a revenue shortfall, fund a 2.8% cost-of-living adjustment, and provide wage corrections for full-time employees.

Under the proposal, a residence valued at $439,000 would see its annual property tax rise from $388.25 to $601.69, an increase of $213.44. A business property of the same value would rise from $705.91 to $1,093.99, an increase of $388.08.

Other meetings

The August 11 Planning Commission meeting was cancelled, with no items discussed. The August 18 City Council meeting was also cancelled; the notice was posted August 14, and no agenda items were listed.

Coming up

The Planning Commission meeting scheduled for August 25, 2026, has been cancelled. No other meetings are listed in the next 14 days. Residents should check the city's official agenda postings for any future meeting notices.
