The public will be invited to comment on the changes during the Dec. 12 Planning Commission meeting. No decisions will be made at the meeting.

The $1 billion-plus City Creek Center project will bring a mix of residences, retailers and office space downtown.

The development will cover three downtown blocks, complete with six acres of landscaped open space, including man-made streams representing the historic south fork of City Creek that ran through downtown when pioneers first arrived in 1847.

City Creek Center is a private venture of the LDS Church, meaning no taxpayer money is being used. Tithing dollars from LDS Church members also will not be used, officials have said. The project is being developed with funding from other real-estate projects of the LDS Church.

City Creek Center is scheduled to be completed in mid-2011.
