Planning Manager Jeff Oyler opened a public hearing and introduced the updated Davis County General Plan, explaining the document is a 10–20 year strategic guide rather than zoning code. Valerie Clawson of Planning Outpost presented the plan's components, including land use, annexation policy, transportation, water preservation, and a resource management plan appendix.
