Virgin boards weigh zoning, sign and wildfire items; posted records show no votes yet
No votes, decisions, or dollar amounts appear in the Virgin meeting records available for the past two weeks. Both recent meetings — a Planning and Zoning Commission public hearing on Oct. 13 and a Town Council work meeting on Oct. 14 — are documented only by posted agendas. Minutes have not been published, so the record does not establish what was said, what comments were received, or whether either body acted. The next scheduled opportunity for action is the Town Council meeting on Oct. 20.
Planning Commission hearing takes up three proposed ordinances
The Virgin Town Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on Tuesday, Oct. 13, 2026 at 5:30 PM at 40 Main St (formerly 91 Mill St) and via Zoom, according to the agenda. The hearing was to accept public input on three proposed ordinances:
- An ordinance amending VMC 16.02.12 (Definitions) and replacing VMC Title 16 Section 30.06 (Use Tables) to establish prohibited uses within Virgin.
- An ordinance amending Title 16 Chapter 52 (Sign Regulations) and Chapter 50 (Lighting) to consolidate sign illumination standards and resolve a conflict between the two ordinances.
- An ordinance amending and restating Title 16 Chapter 16.40 (Commercial Zone) to modernize purpose, applicability, location, permitted and conditional uses, use-specific standards, and development standards.
Public comments could be made in person at the meeting or submitted one day prior. ADA accommodations were available by notifying the Virgin Town Clerk at 435-635-4695 at least 24 hours in advance. Two separate agenda summaries were posted for this same date and body; both describe the same three ordinance topics.
Council work meeting lists wildfire boundary and general plan
The Town Council's Oct. 14 work meeting was noticed as a discussion of non-action items, with no votes scheduled. The agenda listed:
- HB 48 Wildfire Urban Interface (WUI) Boundary
- Zoning Amendment Procedure and Accessory Structures Ordinances
- New General Plan and PROST Plan
- Sign Ordinance Amendment regarding Town Sponsorship Signs
- No Parking Ordinance
The agenda does not spell out what the PROST acronym stands for, and no minutes are posted, so the record does not show what was discussed or any direction given to staff.
Coming up
Oct. 20 — Virgin Town Council. The agenda lists two ordinances: one to establish standards for construction, placement, size, and use of accessory structures in all zoning districts, and one to establish procedures for zoning text and map amendments. The council will also discuss the process for evaluating the Town Manager. The posted headline describes a vote on the two ordinances; the summary says the council will consider them.
Oct. 21 — Virgin Town Planning and Zoning Commission. A work meeting to discuss a proposed ordinance consolidating sign illumination standards in Title 16, Chapters 50 and 52, and a proposed ordinance modernizing Title 16, Chapter 16.40 (Commercial Zone) regarding uses and development standards.
