West Haven City Council
Published: Jul 16, 2026
City Council Reviews and Discusses Economic Development Strategic Plan
The City Council discussed and considered adopting an updated Economic Development Strategic Master Plan. This plan aims to guide the city's economic development by identifying key areas for growth, diversifying the local economy, improving fiscal sustainability, managing growth proactively, modernizing planning processes, and enhancing community identity. Several potential development areas were highlighted, including the 21st Street interchange, 1900 West, 2550 South, Midland and Hinckley, Midland and 4000 South, and the Western Weber corridor. Specific strategies include recruiting anchor businesses, supporting local employers, redeveloping underutilized sites, prioritizing commercial zoning, and managing growth through annexation plans and infrastructure readiness maps. There was considerable discussion regarding the 2550 South area, with some council members expressing concerns about its suitability for commercial development due to its location within the city and potential impact on neighborhood character, while others supported its inclusion for its potential to attract essential services like grocery stores and its future accessibility via planned transportation infrastructure. The plan was presented as a guiding document, not a binding one, offering a toolbox of strategies for the city to achieve its economic development goals.
City Awards Chip Seal Project Contract to Consolidated Paving and Concrete
The City Council awarded the bid for the West Haven City Chip Seal project for the 2026-2027 season to Consolidated Paving and Concrete. The lowest of three bids received was accepted for the amount of $98,000. The staff report included maps detailing the locations to be treated with chip sealing.
City Council Approves License Agreement for Culvert Installation on Hooper Canal
The City Council authorized the adoption of a license agreement between Hooper Irrigation Company and the city for the installation of box culverts on the Hooper Canal. This is required for the widening of 1800 South and the proposed connector road between 1800 South and 2100 South. The culverts are being designed for long-term use, ensuring they will not need to be replaced when the road is fully widened. The city has budgeted for the installation of the culvert and associated sidewalk improvements.
City Council Adopts Franchise Agreement with Rocky Mountain Power
The City Council approved Ordinance 15-2026, authorizing the adoption of a franchise agreement between West Haven City and Rocky Mountain Power. This agreement governs how Rocky Mountain Power operates its facilities within the city's right-of-way. A minor amendment was made to section 9.1 of the ordinance to ensure the full name 'Rocky Mountain Power' was included.
