Erda, Utah received a major blow late Friday morning, when the Tooele County surveyor denied Erda’s plat boundary map, one of the last components needed to finalize incorporation.

In an interview, Oquirrh Point’s developer, Joe Colosimo, said he has designed a thoughtful plan that takes the growing community’s needs into account.

In October, the Tooele County Council approved a rezone request that will allow Oquirrh Point to move forward, even after several Erda residents called on county officials to let the city finish its incorporation process and decide the fabric of its communities.“The county has ridden roughshod over Erda,” Bedell said. “Ethically they should have said, ‘Erda has agreed to incorporate, put this on hold.

But Colosimo noted several parcels in Oquirrh Point’s footprint are currently zoned commercial, which would allow him to build denser apartments or large hotels instead — something the developer said he’ll move forward with if Erda’s referendum succeeds.Meanwhile, signature gatherers for the referendum allege the developer has hired people to follow and intimidate them.

One Landslide employee turned over his packet of signatures to a referendum opponent, Colley said, after being offered $800. Another employee, Jasmine Johnson, spoke to The Tribune and said an opponent offered her $750. In another case, a black vehicle with no license plates followed her around as she canvassed with her baby. She worried it would ram her car.
