West Bountiful Shares Early Concept for Up to 884 Homes on Its West Side

West Bountiful City is asking residents to weigh in on an early, conceptual plan that could bring up to 884 homes to about 174 acres on the city’s west side, along the east side of Legacy Parkway between roughly 500 South and 1200 North. Nothing has been approved, and the city says no application or formal proposal has been submitted.

The city introduced the concept at a community meeting on June 29 and posted the map, presentation and preliminary studies on its West Side Development Concept page. As of Oct. 13, that page still shows the June 24, 2026 map as the current concept, and the city says it will add any applications or proposals there if and when they are filed.

What the concept shows

The city’s presentation covers two adjoining properties and breaks the 884 units down this way:

• 75 lots of one-third to one-half acre
• 240 lots of 6,000 to 8,000 square feet
• 178 smaller “cottage” lots of 4,000 to 6,000 square feet
• 211 townhomes
• 180 condos

The northern property, called Belmont, accounts for 234 of those units, all single-family lots. The southern property, called Providence, accounts for 650, including all of the cottage lots, townhomes and condos. The map places the condos at the southwest corner along Legacy Parkway, with density stepping down toward existing neighborhoods. City Administrator Duane Huffman told the Davis Journal that Ivory Homes owns the Belmont land and a group of owners organized as Seddie LLC holds the Providence land.

About 20.4 acres would be open space, including a large neighborhood park at the north end, a smaller pocket park and community trails. The city’s presentation describes the large park as developer-funded.

Why the city says it is looking at this

In its June presentation, the city pointed to housing options residents can afford to buy, keeping local control over how the land develops (citing the risk of state preemption or the land being annexed into another city), and property owners’ rights. The presentation also says the effort is not about raising city revenue.

The city’s preliminary traffic study and preliminary water study concluded that the concept would not overwhelm current city streets and that existing water supply and storage would be enough. The city notes those studies would need to be redone if a formal application comes in, and that drafts have changed over time; the traffic study, for example, calls the southern area “Bandon Fields.”

What would still have to happen

The city lists several steps before anything could be built: more community input, a development agreement, annexation, zoning changes and subdivision applications. Questions about schools, the fire and sewer districts, wetlands and road design are still open, according to the presentation.

How to weigh in

• Review the materials on the city’s West Side Development Concept page.
• Email questions or comments to the city at info@wbcityut.gov.
• West Bountiful City Council meets Oct. 20 and the Planning Commission meets Oct. 27, both at 7:30 p.m. at City Hall, 550 N. 800 West. Check the posted agendas before attending, since the concept is not necessarily on either meeting’s agenda.

Heading to City Hall from the east? Pages Lane closes Oct. 15 through Jan. 25 for FrontRunner work, with traffic detoured to 400 North. Details on the closure.

Meeting dates, plans and unit counts are set by West Bountiful City and the property owners and can change. Confirm current details on the city’s website.
