Brandon Park Estates gains approval from city

By Mike Kieffer
On March 7, the Eagle Mountain City Council approved the Brandon Park Preliminary Plat Plan as well as the Brandon Park Master Development Agreement. This is not the first time that the city council has discussed this project and parcel of land. This parcel was at one point know as Equestrian Estates and was discussed before the city in 2007. The plan for Equestrian Estates never came to fruition and was changed to Brandon Park. The plan for Brandon Park was reviewed in January 2016 and then again in October 2016.

Brandon Park Estates is located on 215 acres south of Eagle Mountain Blvd. and west of the city cemetery and Pony Express Park. The project will include 542 single-family lots. There are three different lot sizes ranging from 8,000 square feet to lots that are a half acre or larger.

The site includes a school and a church site with the possibility of including more churches and schools if needed. The site also includes two larger parks as well as green space corridors throughout the project to allow residents to easily walk to the provided parks. The open space is approximately 14 acres, of which the majority is located towards the center of the project. The city uses a point system to determine the amount of improved green and opens space that is required. This project meets the requirements with a total of 1,244 points.

The development is classified as a Tier II residential project and is divided in to several different phases. The city council approved the plan with several provisions included.

The council adopted a resolution approving the Brandon Park Estates Master Development Agreement with the following conditions: It is paved to the west access during Phase 8 with a crushed gravel trail continuing around the rest of the project; that the developer work with staff on trail connectivity in the northeast quadrant including semi-privacy fencing along all of the internal trails; and working with staff on trail landscaping and appropriate lighting.
