New center proposal in Logan sent back for review

Logan’s Board of Appeals is sending a proposed senior center project back to the city’s Planning Commission.

Last month, commissioners unanimously approved a design review and conditional use permit for the Central Park Senior Center. But one of the residents who would live near the facility appealed the decision, calling into question the building’s approved height and the adequacy of the parking.

“I’m encouraged by the Board of Appeals’ decision to send this back to the Planning Commission for further review,” Todd Sherman, the appellant, told The Herald Journal after the three-hour long meeting.

Cache County is considering being involved in the project, proposed by a Salt Lake City developer. It’s been reported the county would contribute the land where the current senior center now sits, while the developer would build a new senior center and construct roughly 200 apartments that would occupy four floors of the five-story building. The new senior center would take up a portion of the main floor.
