About this application

The City of Eagle is proposing changes to Chapter 6 (Land Use) of its Comprehensive Plan. The changes would lower the allowed housing density in several residential and mixed-use land use categories, update the zoning compatibility chart, and add a rule limiting redevelopment near the Randall Acres Subdivision to residential use at no more than 4 homes per acre. The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended two further changes on February 2, 2026.

The City of Eagle is proposing a comprehensive plan text amendment to Chapter 6: Land Use that amends specific land use designations, comprehensive plan text, and Map 6.1: "Future Land Use Map". Additionally, the proposed amendment includes general grammatical and syntactical changes within Chapter 6.
