The Utah County Commission meeting on March 20, 2024, focused on the upcoming public comment period regarding a proposed interchange project. Officials announced that a 30-day public comment period will be initiated, encouraging community involvement and feedback on the project.

During the meeting, representatives emphasized the importance of public input, stating that all comments received will be addressed at the end of the comment period. They urged residents to share their thoughts on the potential interchange, highlighting that this engagement is crucial for the project's development.

One of the key points discussed was the selection of an alternative for the interchange that balances traffic volume and environmental impact. Officials noted that the chosen alternative has the second highest traffic volume but the lowest impact, which they believe is a logical choice for the community.

Concerns were raised about the potential impact on local infrastructure, particularly regarding the accessibility of Center Street and its significance for community events, such as the farmers' market. The commission acknowledged these concerns and indicated that they are exploring options to maintain access to important local routes.

The meeting concluded with an invitation for questions, but no further inquiries were made by attendees. The commission reiterated their commitment to transparency and community involvement as the project moves forward.
