Saratoga Springs zoning code

19.19.05 Minimum Required Amenities

Unofficial copy. It may be out of date. Not legal or zoning advice. Zoning rules change, and only the city or county can say for sure what is allowed on a property. Confirm with the city or county planning department before you buy, sign or build. The official Saratoga Springs code is at https://www.saratogasprings-ut.gov/202/Land-Development-Code. Text pulled 2026-10-19 from this source. The city's use tables are images in its PDFs, so they appear nearly empty here. Check the official code for any use table. Tables (like use tables) may not copy cleanly, so check any table against the official code. Confirm anything here with Saratoga Springs planning before you rely on it.
1. Methodology. In order to meet the needs of new residents in each development, each development is required to provide amenities equaling a minimum number of points per required Equivalent Acre of open space. 2. Minimum Points. A minimum number of points is required per required Equivalent Acre, based on the total number of required Equivalent Acres provided in an individual park. The amenities may be distributed across all provided acres, but the points requirement is based only on the required Equivalent Acres. a. Required points: minimum required points are based on the number of required Equivalent Acres provided in a contiguous park and are outlined in the table below: Park Size 0 - 2.49 Equivalent Acres 2.5 - 4.99 Equivalent Acres 5 - 9.99 Equivalent Acres 10+ Equivalent Acres Minimum Points Per Required Equivalent Acre: 100 80 60 40 b. Example of application: a development with 150 units is required to provide 3.75 Equivalent Acres (150 ÷ 40 = 3.75), and must provide amenities averaging 80 points per Equivalent Acre, for a total of 300 points (3.75 x 80 = 300). If the development provides 6 Equivalent Acres instead of the minimum 3.75, the total point requirement is still 300 and does not increase based on additional acreage. 3. Points per Amenity. Each recreational amenity is worth a number of points. For appropriate spacing of amenities, each item also has a minimum square footage requirement. 4. Mixture of Amenities and Required Amenities. a. All parks are required to provide a mixture of amenities, including at least one separate item each from three different categories. b. No more than 25 percent of the required amenity points shall be comprised of “Additional Equivalent Acre Above Requirement.” c. Public Amenities may qualify for impact fee credits, if identified in the Master Plan, are requested by the City to be installed, and if they are not used to satisfy amenity points.
