More Paving of Ogden Canyon

Like Déjà Vu all over again, the canyon will be paved again this week.

Here are the details:

Change to Ogden Canyon Paving Scheduled for June 19-23

Scheduled total closure will now be from 8 p.m. on Saturday night through 8 p.m. on Sunday

Ogden -- The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) advises motorists that a short duration paving project will begin on state Road 39 in Ogden Canyon beginning June 19.

From Thursday night, June 19 through Tuesday morning, June 24, crews will be paving a section of SR-39, the Ogden Canyon Highway, from the Indian Trail near the mouth of the canyon to the Alaskan Inn. This paving is a part of the final phase of work related to last summer’s Ogden City Water Line project through Ogden Canyon.

This work will be conducted according to the following schedule:

·         Thursday June 19, to Friday June 20, one lane will be closed in the canyon with alternating traffic directed by flaggers from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., as crew’s lower utility accesses and make preparations for the paving work.

·         From 8 p.m. on Saturday night June 21, to 8 p.m. on Sunday night June 22, pavement removal and paving operations will be accomplished, with a complete closure of SR-39 in the canyon.  During this closures traffic must detour over alternate routes, such as SR-167, the Trappers Loop Highway via Interstate 84 through Weber Canyon, or via North Ogden Canyon Road, the so-called “North Ogden Divide.”  Access will be maintained for canyon residents during this complete closure. 

·         Finally, on Monday night, June 23, one lane will be closed with alternating traffic directed by flaggers from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., as crews restore utility accesses to their pre-project levels. 

Once this project is complete, a chip seal project will be conducted in late July to seal the roadway surface.  Stakeholders with questions about this project can contact the project hotline at 801-419-9554.

Construction activities, dates and times are subject to change because of weather or other unforeseen delays. For the latest information, download the free UDOT Traffic app on any iPhone or Android device or visit udottraffic.utah.gov.

Subject: Additional Information for the 6/3/2014 Ogden Valley Planning Commission Meeting

Hi to All:

 

I just received some updates for the Ogden Valley Planning Commission meeting scheduled for June 3, 2014 at 5:00 pm in the Weber Center.  This information was submitted to Weber County on May 16, 2014, and there was no auto notification provided to those individuals who are trying to track the Wolf Creek Information project.  This request was added to the Weber County IT system (called Miradi) as a totally separate project named Wolf Creek Zoning Development Agreement.

 

The link to all the documents submitted to Weber County on May 16, 2014 is provided below.  Simply click on the Files tab and you will find links to all the documents.  The very first document link is a letter from the WCS (Wolf Creek Stakeholders - J. Lewis, H. Schmidt, R. Watts, America First CU, KRK - new owners of the golf course) which summarizes the WCS' request.

Granted that there is a lot of information to sift through, but it is best that there be as much community representation at the Ogden Valley Planning Commission meeting on June 3 to ensure all are aware of the community interest in any future development plans within and around the existing Wolf Creek communities.

 

Please feel free to pass on this information.

 

Thank you,

Jan Fullmer

 

Below is the note from Eric:

 As you are aware, the Wolf Creek Zoning Development Agreement is going before the Ogden Valley Planning Commission next Tuesday evening.  It has come to my attention that some folks are looking at information that was submitted prior to May 16th and not directly related to the upcoming meeting.  Here is the Miradi link with the complete submittal https://miradi.co.weber.ut.us/projects/view/1210  

For your convenience, the letter outlining the Wolf Creek Stakeholder’s request is attached.  Discussions between Weber County and the Stakeholders began in January of 2012 and this "two step process" has been determined by the county.  First, update and make the 2002 agreement current; second, follow up by submitting a new/revised master plan for the resort. 

It is important to understand the following;

• The proposed updates reflect development and rezoning that has occurred since 2002
• Overall density does not increase but includes adding the Eagles Landing project (this occurred in 2006)
• Open Space does not decrease or change
• This is not a rezone request and will not change the Weber County zoning map 

The objective is to;

• Allocate the 492 unassigned units to undeveloped zoned property within the resort that can support density per the agreement
• Reclassify two zoning categories; one no longer exists, while the second does not support density in commercial areas as outlined in the agreement
• This action will give the Stakeholders a starting point to begin the rezoning/master plan process which is a requirement put in place by Weber County
• Updating the master plan will include public input through community meetings

Subject: Your Support is Needed at a 6/3/2014 Ogden Valley Planning Commission Meeting

Hi to All:

There is a meeting of the Ogden Valley Planning Commission on

Tuesday, June 3, 2014 at 5:00 pm in the Weber Center (24th & Washington Blvd, Ogden UT).

The purpose of this meeting is to review zoning change requests for parcels that are part of the Wolf Creek Master Development plan which are now owned or represented by several developers (H. Schmidt, J. Lewis, R. Watts), American First Credit Union and the new owners of the Golf Course (KRK Wolf Creek LLC).  Collectively, this group is known as WCS (Wolf Creek Stakeholders)

We should all be concerned about any changes requested to the Wolf Creek Master Development plan, especially to any changes that may be proposed to open space, changes to increase density or even changes to the golf course.  Please, if you can attend this meeting, your support will be appreciated.  And also feel free to pass the word to other neighbors on this meeting.

There is a lot of background information, and you will find all related information in the links below.  Please note that all this information is factual -- no rumors.  And, the information came from  Weber County.

 

 

When you click on the following link, you will come to a page within a Weber County IT system which tracks projects.  There will be several file tabs, and simply click on the tab named Files.  You will then see links to several documents related to the Wolf Creek project.  Please click on the link named Exhibit H stake holder support for study.  The last page of this document has the signatures of WCS (Wolf Creek Stakeholders) who requested Weber County to verify what was actually approved in the Wolf Creek Master Development Plan submitted to Weber County in 2002.  The remaining links point to documents that are primarily the 2002 Wolf Creek Master Development Plan.
