Land Use Community Meetings April 12, 13, 14
The City is holding community meetings next week to get public input on potential changes to our land use plan. Some members of the Planning commission and City Council will be there (not everyone because of State quorum rules). The meetings are outdoors, so I doubt there will be videos or recordings unfortunately. Please attend. We need your input.
- April 12, 5-7pm, Fire Lake Park
- April 13, 5-7pm, City Park (behind City Hall)
- April 14, 5-7pm, Unity Park
Presentation: Research Findings About Ivins
Chuck Gillette, the City’s Public Works director, and I have been helping graduate students at Utah State University on a research project titled, “The Growth of a Sustainable City: Envisioning the Future of Ivins.” They will present their results on April 26th at a special USU event. We can participate by Zoom. There will be three presentations, starting at 2pm. The Ivins presentation is scheduled to begin at 3pm. You can join by Zoom using: Meeting ID: 850 8711 3435 and Passcode: 221145
