This is the town's 1975 typed zoning ordinance, the only one posted online (on Emery County's site). It may be outdated; confirm the current rules with the town.
Tables (like use tables) may not copy cleanly, so check any table against the official code.
Confirm anything here with Elmo planning before you rely on it.
A. It shall be the duty of the Zoning Administrator to inspect or cause to be inspected
all buildings in the course of construction or repair. He shall enforce all the
provisions of this Ordinance, entering actions in the courts, when necessary, and
his failure to do so shall not legalize any set in violations of such provisions.
B. Upon appeal of the Board of Adjustment of any matters on which said board is
required to pass, the Zoning Administrator shall forthwith transmit all papers,
records, and other pertinent data by the terms of this Ordinance. The Zoning
Administrator shall also refer matters to the Planning Commission and City Council as
set for in this Ordinance.
