West Bountiful meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

West Bountiful agendas: pool safety code, annexation plan, Jessi's Meadows lease — but no decisions yet on the record

West Bountiful's City Council and Planning Commission have posted agendas covering a pool-safety code change, an annexation policy plan, a grazing lease at Jessi's Meadows Open Space and a used rough mower purchase. Minutes from the meetings held in the past two weeks have not been published, so no votes, dollar amounts or outcomes from those sessions are confirmed in the records available for this roundup. What follows is what the agendas list, not what was decided.

Pool safety rules go to the City Council

The Planning Commission's Oct. 13 agenda listed a public hearing on pool safety barrier requirements and consideration of a recommendation to the City Council. A separate Oct. 13 entry described the proposed text change: it would remove the requirement for self-closing or self-latching gates on fences surrounding pools that use an ASTM F1346 safety cover.

The City Council is scheduled to take the item up Oct. 20 with a public hearing and an ordinance — Ordinance 517-26, amending Municipal Code 17.76.020. No vote on the ordinance appears in the materials available.

Annexation Policy Plan

The Planning Commission held a public meeting Oct. 13 on a proposed Annexation Policy Plan, described as an opportunity for affected entities to examine the plan and comment under Utah Code § 10-2-803(4). Written comments may be submitted for 10 days after the meeting. A public hearing on the plan is scheduled for Oct. 27 at the city offices.

Jessi's Meadows lease and mower purchase

The City Council met Oct. 6 at 7:30 p.m. at 550 N 800 W. The agenda listed a grazing lease for Jessi's Meadows Open Space and a purchase approval for a used golf course rough mower. The posted agenda contained no dollar amounts or contract details for either item.

Also on that agenda: meeting minutes from Sept. 15, 2026; staff reports from Police, Public Works, Engineering, Admin and Community Development; and Mayor and Council reports. A closed session was listed as possible under UCA § 52-4-205.

Development concepts, Aspen Dental, Highgate plat

The Planning Commission's Oct. 6 work session consisted of a presentation on updated development concepts by Ivory Homes and Cirrus Group.

The Oct. 13 Planning Commission agenda also listed a conditional use permit for Aspen Dental.

The City Council's Oct. 20 agenda lists consideration of the Highgate No. 2 Phase 1 Amended Subdivision Plat.

West Bountiful's City Council, Planning Commission and Arts Council all have business on the calendar in a two-week stretch that includes a proposed grazing lease on open space, a used mower purchase, a developer presentation and a proposed change to pool safety rules. Minutes had not been published for the three most recent meetings as of Oct. 13, so the available documents record what was scheduled, not what was decided. No votes, contract terms or dollar amounts appear in them.

City Council: grazing lease and used mower (Oct. 6)

The City Council met Oct. 6 at 7:30 p.m. at 550 N 800 W. The posted agenda listed a consideration of a grazing lease for Jessi's Meadows Open Space and a purchase approval for a used golf course rough mower.

City Council, Oct. 20. A public hearing on the same proposed pool safety text change — removing the self-closing or self-latching gate requirement for pools that use an ASTM F1346 safety cover.

A note on what this roundup can and cannot say: the documents provided are agendas and meeting notices. They do not record what any body decided, and no minutes from the Oct. 1, Oct. 6 or Oct. 13 meetings were available. Readers who want the outcomes should check the city's published minutes for those dates.
