County Council Appoints Morris Poole to Planning Commission

The Cache County Council meeting on August 12, 2025, kicked off with a swift approval of the agenda and minutes from the previous meeting, setting a productive tone for the evening.

A key highlight was the proposal to appoint Morris Poole to the Planning Commission, filling the vacancy left by Lane D. Parker. Poole, a long-time resident of the valley with 68 years of experience, brings a wealth of knowledge in planning and zoning from his work in Logan and Providence. His background includes developing office buildings and a strong understanding of local development processes, making him a well-suited candidate for the role.

The council expressed confidence in Poole's capabilities, with one member noting his impressive history and expertise during the vetting process. This appointment is expected to enhance the Planning Commission's effectiveness in guiding future developments in Cache County.

As the meeting progressed, the council continued to address various administrative matters, but the focus on Poole's appointment stood out as a significant step forward for local governance.
