City Council considers $1.09 million in expenditures and roadway asphalt contract
The Santaquin City Council's July 21 regular meeting agenda included consent items totaling $1,089,329.17 in city expenditures — $197,767.60 from June 30, 2026, and $891,561.57 covering July 4–17, 2026. The council was also scheduled to discuss and possibly act on awarding a roadway asphalt projects contract. Minutes from this meeting have not yet been published, so outcomes and vote tallies are not yet available.
A separate City Council work session on July 21 was set to discuss the old library. No formal decisions were scheduled for that session.
Development Review Committee to review Bella Vista Subdivision phases
The Development Review Committee's July 28 agenda called for final reviews of Bella Vista Subdivision Phases 1 through 4. The committee was also scheduled to consider a traffic request for a "Deaf Child at Play" sign at 913 N 260 W. Minutes have not yet been published.
Planning Commission holds three public hearings
The Planning Commission's July 28 meeting included three notable public hearings:
- **Fuel tank restriction:** Proposed amendments to city code sections SCC 10.40.070, 10.20.070–110, 10.20.150, 10.20.190, and 10.20.220 would prohibit fuel tanks exceeding 150 gallons in all residential zones.
- **Detached accessory dwelling units (DADUs):** Proposed amendments to city code sections 10.16.080, 10.20.090, 10.20.110, 10.20.150, 10.20.210, and 10.20.220 would allow DADUs in residential R-12, R-20, RC, R-Ag, and R-43 zones. The agenda notes this follows Utah SB284 (March 2026), which permits DADUs on residential lots larger than 11,000 square feet.
- **Wild Thistle Cafe alcohol license:** A proposed conditional use permit for a Class C alcohol license at Wild Thistle Cafe, 77 W Main Street.
The commission was also scheduled to approve meeting minutes from June 9, 2026. As with the other meetings, minutes from this session have not yet been published, so no outcomes are confirmed.
