Holladay residents will get another shot at weighing in on what kinds of businesses can open at the Holladay Hills development when the City Council resumes a public hearing Thursday, Aug. 6.

The council will pick up where it left off July 16, when a hearing on a proposed text amendment to allow personal services businesses at the 57-acre former Cottonwood Mall site was continued without a vote. According to the city's meeting agenda, the Aug. 6 meeting begins at 6 p.m. at Holladay Council Chambers, 3330 S. 1300 East.

If approved through Resolution 2026-24, the amendment would modify the Permitted Land Use Table in the Site Development Master Plan that has governed the Holladay Hills mixed-use zone since 2007. The change would open the door for salons, tutoring centers, and similar personal services tenants alongside the retail and restaurant businesses already operating there.

KMW Development and Holladay Hills LLC filed the application. The development is a joint venture between Woodbury Corporation, Millrock Capital LLC, and Ball Ventures.

As we reported July 13, the site has added several tenants in the past year: Trader Joe's opened a 13,397-square-foot store in October 2025, Bobby's Burgers by Bobby Flay and Megaplex Theatres both launched in March 2026, and Sploot Veterinary Care opened its first Salt Lake City clinic there in May 2026. Kiln, a coworking space, occupies two floors of the former Macy's building.

The city's earlier agenda packet labeled the proposed use "professional services," while the Aug. 6 agenda and Resolution 2026-24 consistently use "personal services." The distinction could affect which businesses qualify.

Bike lane policy and Spring Lane Park budget

The council will also vote on Resolution 2026-25, which would adopt policies for dedicated bike lanes within the city. No details about the policy's content have been released publicly.

In a work session following the regular meeting, council members will discuss the Spring Lane Park budget, proposed plan, and procurement. The Holladay Local Building Authority, which meets the same evening at 6:30 p.m. with the same six members, will consider LBA Resolution 2026-04 to increase the park's budget from $6,967,138 to $9,100,000. The $2,132,862 increase would be funded by drawing additional LBA fund balance.

The city secured 12 acres for Spring Lane Park under a 30-year lease starting Jan. 1, 2026, for approximately $1.5 million, according to the Holladay Journal. At the June 11 council meeting, Assistant City Manager Holly Smith reported two grant applications were pending for the project.

Mayor Paul Fotheringham will preside over both the council meeting and the LBA session. Council members David Sundwall, Matt Durham, Natalie Bradley, Drew Quinn, and Emily Gray round out both bodies.

Residents can comment in person at Holladay City Hall or by emailing [email protected] with the subject line "Public Comment" by 5 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 6. The meeting streams live at holladayut.gov.
