If the Zoning Administrator determines that an application is incomplete, it shall notify the applicant of the incompleteness, highlighting any insufficiencies and explaining that the application will not be reviewed until it is complete. Once complete, the Zoning Administrator will submit the application to the Land Use Authority.
1.
If the application is for a minor subdivision the Zoning Administrator will follow subsection B of this section and then conduct its review, as the Land Use Authority, according to the remainder of this section.
C.
The Land Use Authority shall review all subdivision applications in accordance with the requirements of this section before approving or denying those applications.
D.
After the Zoning Administrator submits an applicant’s complete application, the Land Use Authority shall review and provide feedback to the applicant in a series of “review cycles.”
1.
A review cycle consists of the following phases:
a.
Phase #1: The applicant submits a complete application (or, if after the first cycle, submits a revised version of the complete application).
b.
Phase #2: The Land Use Authority reviews the application in detail and assesses whether the application conforms to local ordinances.
c.
Phase #3: The Land Use Authority responds to the applicant, citing any missing requirements or areas of noncompliance and providing a detailed list of necessary revisions to the applicant. For any required modification or addition to the application or request for more information, the Land Use Authority shall be specific and include citations to ordinances, standards, or specifications that require the modification or addition and shall provide the applicant with an index of all requested modifications or additions.
d.
Phase #4: The applicant revises the application, addressing each comment or requirement the Land Use Authority made. The applicant must submit both revised plans and a written explanation in response to the City’s review comments, identifying and explaining the applicant’s revisions and reasons for declining to make revisions, if any. This written explanation must be comprehensive and specific, including citations to applicable standards and ordinances and an index of requested revisions or additions for each required correction. If the applicant fails to respond to a comment made by the Land Use Authority in its review, the review cycle is not complete and will remain open until the applicant addresses all comments.

 |
E.
A Land Use Authority (and other City representatives or agents) shall adhere to the maximum number of review cycles and the review deadlines described in Table 9-12-3.1, except as described below. If no further revisions are needed, the Land Use Authority may end the review process early and approve or deny the application.
1.
This provision notwithstanding, for any subdivision application that affects property within an identified geological hazard area, the City is exempt from limits on the number of permitted review cycles and the City’s deadlines for reviewing and responding (Phases #2 and #3).
2.
If the applicant makes a material change to the application not requested by the City at any point in the review process, the Land Use Authority may restart the review process, but only with respect to the portion of the application that the material change substantively affects.
3.
If an applicant takes longer than 40 business days to submit a revised subdivision improvement plan responding to the City’s requests for modifications and additions (in Phases #1 and #4), the City shall have an additional 20 business days to review and respond to the revised application (Phases #2 and #3 of the next review cycle or issuing an approval decision).
4.
If an applicant takes longer than 180 calendar days to submit a revised application and respond to the City’s requests for modifications and additions (Phases #1 and #4), the application shall, at the option of the Land Use Authority, expire. If an application expires, the applicant must restart the subdivision application process.
F.
After the fourth or final review cycle is complete, the Land Use Authority shall approve or deny the application within 20 business days.
1.
If the Land Use Authority has not approved or denied the application within 20 business days after the allotted review cycles are complete, the applicant may request a decision. After such a request, the City shall, within 10 business days:
a.
For a dispute arising from the subdivision improvement plans, assemble an appeal panel in accordance with Section 10-9a-508(5)(d), Utah Code Annotated,[1] to review and approve or deny the revised set of plans; or
[1]
Editor's Note: Section 10-9a-508, Utah Code Annotated, was renumbered effective 11/6/2025 to Section 10-20-911, Utah Code Annotated.
b.
For a dispute arising from the subdivision ordinance review, advise the applicant, in writing, of the deficiency in the application and of the right to appeal the determination to the designated Appeal Authority.
G.
After the Land Use Authority provides comments in the fourth or final review cycle, the City shall not require further modifications or corrections to the application unless those modifications or corrections are necessary to protect public health and safety or to enforce state or federal law or unless the review cycle reset due to the applicant making a material change that the Land Use Authority did not request.
1.
With the exception of modifications or corrections that are needed to protect public health and safety, that are needed to enforce state or federal law, or that arise from the review cycle being reset, the municipality waives noncompliant subdivision-related requirements that the Land Use Authority does not identify during the review process.
2.
The applicant shall make reasonable changes, unless prohibited otherwise by a contract or deed, to the subdivision application to accommodate the water conveyance facility to the extent required by Section 73-1-15.5, Utah Code Annotated.
H.
The Planning Commission, or on behalf of the Zoning Administrator, may conduct one or more public hearings (up to the number described in Table 9-12-3.1) during the review period for a subdivision application.
1.
The purpose of these public hearings is to ask questions of the applicant and receive commentary on the technical aspects of the application from affected entities, interested parties, and the public.
2.
If the Land Use Authority elects to hold a public hearing, the hearing must occur before the end of the Land Use Authority’s review period in the fourth or final review cycle. Scheduling issues shall not extend the review and approval deadlines in this chapter.
I.
Other chapters of this title notwithstanding, the Land Use Authority shall approve or deny a subdivision application under this chapter after reviewing a complete subdivision application as described in this section. This singular application and review process includes the combined elements of traditional “preliminary” and “final” applications, as those terms are used in Section 10-9a-604.2, Utah Code Annotated.[2] For purposes of applying Sections 10-9a-604.1(3)(a) and 10-9a-604.1(9)(b), Utah Code Annotated,[3] this chapter describes a “preliminary” review and approval, with “final” approval happening automatically when the plat is recorded.

§ 9-12-5.2 COMPLETION OF ON- AND OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS; PRIOR TO THE APPROVAL OF PLATS OR ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES OF OCCUPANCY:
A.
Policy: In order to protect buyers of condominiums, subdivision projects, and other property in the City of Huntington against purchasing property on which the site improvement work is incomplete and which may not be completed, and to protect the public at large from dangerous and undesirable conditions that result from unfinished site improvements such as erosion, flooding, and blowing dust, it is the policy of the City of Huntington that no plat will be approved (when a plat is required) and that no certificate of occupancy will be issued (when plats are not required) on any building project within the City limits unless and until the site improvement work is completed or the developer of the property has provided adequate security to guarantee timely completion of the improvements.
1.
The decision whether to guarantee an improvement or to complete it before recording and obtaining a building permit rests solely with the applicant.
B.
Detailed Site Plans: A detailed site plan showing the location and nature of drainage work, grade changes, retaining walls, and landscaping, together with any trails, paths, or walkways shall be submitted to the building inspector prior to issuance of an occupancy permit. Site improvements shall be completed pursuant to this chapter and as shown in the detailed site plan.
C.
Construction According to Approved Plans: No plat will be approved and no certificate of occupancy will be issued unless that project and all required site improvements have been constructed in accordance with the plans approved by the building inspector, in accordance with Chapter 9-13, and on which the building permit is issued, except as specified in Section 9-12-5.3 (Security For Completion).
D.
All improvements are subject to City inspection before such improvements may be accepted by the City or considered complete. The Zoning Administrator shall be responsible for conducting such inspections. Improvements shall be accepted only if they conform to applicable City ordinances (notably Chapter 9-13 of this Title) and do not pose a risk to public health or safety. All public improvements are subject to the warranty described in Section 9-12-5.3.
1.
City shall publish and maintain objective inspection standards for acceptance of improvements that:
a.
Does not change from project to project; and
b.
Are backed up by expert opinion.
E.
The provisions of this section do not supersede the terms of a valid development agreement, an adopted phasing plan, or the state construction code.
(Ord. 2-2026, 3/18/2026)
§ 9-12-5.3 IMPROVEMENT GUARANTEES, COMPLETION ASSURANCES, AND WARRANTIES:

1.
A bond with a surety company licensed to do business in the state of Utah; or
2.
An irrevocable letter of credit with a federally insured financial institution; or
3.
A cashier's check made payable only to the City; or
4.
A trust or escrow account with a federally insured financial institution designating the City as beneficiary.
a.
Any interest accruing on escrowed funds shall, unless expended for completion of site improvements required, inure to the benefit of the developer and not to the City. The City shall not be required to pay interest to the developer on any non-interest-bearing escrow account established for this purpose.
B.
In the event that buildings on the property are completed before other required on site improvements are completed, and the site improvements cannot be completed simultaneously with the completion of the building due to weather or other conditions beyond the control of the developer (excluding financial inability to perform); or as it relates to subdivisions, in order to record a final plat prior to completion of off-site improvements, the City may grant final plat approval or issue the certificate of occupancy for all or part of the project prior to the completion of site improvements provided that all of the following conditions are met:
1.
The building or buildings, or portions thereof, on the property to be platted or occupied have been constructed in accordance with the approved plans for those buildings, are in full compliance with applicable building and fire codes, and are completed to the extent that only exterior site improvement work remains unfinished and the building inspector determines that occupancy of the buildings, or portions thereof, prior to completion of required on and off site improvements, is safe, and that access for emergency vehicles is adequate with the site improvements unfinished.
2.
In regard to subdivisions, the building inspector approves all final construction plans, a development agreement has been approved by the City attorney and executed by the owner/developer, and the developer posts adequate security for the benefit of the City of Huntington and the public to ensure completion of the site improvements in full compliance with the approved plans within two years from the date of plat approval (if required) or one year from the date of issuance of the certificate of occupancy, whichever occurs first.
C.
The City shall not require improvement guarantees for any of the prohibited uses listed in Section 10-9a-604.5(3)(d), Utah Code Annotated,[1] including improvements the City has previously inspected and accepted, private improvements that are not essential to meet the building code, fire code, flood or stormwater management provisions, street and access requirements, or other essential necessary public safety improvements adopted in a land use regulation.

Upon acceptance of all required improvements, the applicant shall warrant that said improvements shall remain free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of 12 months after the date of acceptance by the City. The subdivider shall be solely responsible for all repairs and maintenance required to keep the improvements in good working condition for this 12-month period.
(Ord. 2-2026, 3/18/2026)
§ 9-12-5.4 AMOUNT OF SECURITY:
A.
The amount of the security to be posted by the developer shall be determined by the City Council and shall be equal to 110% of the amount reasonably estimated by an engineer’s estimate or licensed contractor’s bid as being necessary to complete all remaining on and off-site improvements as shown on the approved plans. In the event that the developer disputes the cost estimate of the City, the developer may present lower construction costs supported by binding written contracts between the developer and licensed contractors or subcontractors qualified to perform the required work at a stated, fixed price.
B.
A full performance bond, ensuring performance by the subcontractor or contractor, must accompany these contracts. Bid proposals are not satisfactory for this purpose. If the contracts submitted are acceptable in form, the amount of security required shall be 110% of the total contract price of all such contracts submitted, plus the estimated reasonable cost of performing work not covered by the contracts, if any. Specifications in such contracts shall be sufficiently clear to identify the work called for under the contract. The amount of security required for single-family homes shall be the reasonable estimated cost of construction of any retainage and drainage and the estimated cost of landscaping to the extent necessary to hold soil in place.
(Ord. 2-2026, 3/18/2026)

Upon satisfactory completion of all required site improvement work, as determined by the Zoning Administrator, all funds shall be immediately released to the developer.
B.
As improvements are completed, inspected, and accepted by the City, the City Council shall, each quarter, at the option of the applicant, issue a partial release of bonded or escrow funds proportional to the improvements accepted during the prior quarter.
(Ord. 2-2026, 3/18/2026)
§ 9-12-5.8 MODIFICATION OF PLANS:

(Ord. 2-2026, 3/18/2026)
§ 9-12-5.9 PHASED PROJECTS:
