27.030 General Plan and Zoning Designation

A. All annexations shall be consistent with the Lehi City General Plan. Consistency with the General Plan comprises all elements of the plan, including but not limited to the Land Use Element, Parks, Recreation and Open Space Element, and any other element adopted as part of the General Plan. If the proponent of an annexation proposes zoning or any other any other issue that is inconsistent with the General Plan, the proponent shall be required to apply for an amendment to the Lehi City General Plan and follow the requirements of Chapter 4 of this Code. B. When land is annexed into the City it shall be given a zoning designation. Annexations may include more than one zoning district if appropriate. The City Council may assign zoning to the proposed annexation or accept the applicant’s zoning proposal. C. The Transitional Holding-5 (TH-5) District may be designated, at the discretion of the City Council, for the annexation of land where no water is dedicated upon annexation and where no city culinary water or pressurized irrigation water services will be provided. Characteristic of this district is a continuation of uses and services existing at the time of annexation. All new uses must comply with Table 05-030-A, Table 05-040-A, and Table 12-060 of the Lehi City Development Code. Property may be annexed into the TH-5 district without the requirement of a General Plan amendment. It is, however, anticipated that when the property is rezoned, it will comply with the General Plan designation. Otherwise, a General Plan amendment will be required. D. Existing uses may or may not be allowed in the annexation process. Animal rights, agricultural uses, and other uses, if inappropriate, may not be allowed following annexation.
