Tune into the Dakota Pacific Hearing on Thursday at 11 AM(6/15/23)

The long-awaited Summit County lawsuit against Dakota Pacific (DP) begins tomorrow. Summit County is requesting a summary judgment against DP on whether Utah Senate Bill 84 applies to the development. Summit County claims that the “Transit Center” at Kimball Junction doesn’t meet the definition of a “public transit hub” and therefore isn’t forced into allowing the Dakota Pacific development.

This could go several ways, but if Summit County is granted a summary judgment, it invalidates the Legislature’s apparent attempt to do an end-around of local government determining land use. If not, then the lawsuits will likely go on.
