Emery County tables general-plan update public hearing after residents ask for posted draft
Summary
During a public hearing on the general-plan updates, several residents said the amended draft was not posted online; commissioners agreed to post the amendment, provide hard copies to attendees, and table the hearing for two weeks.
The Emery County Commission opened a public hearing Jan. 6 to receive comment on proposed updates to the county general plan but elected to table the hearing after multiple residents said they could not find the amended draft online.
Commissioner Leonard described a small committee that reviewed the prior plan and draft changes, including new material on public lands and wild horses. Members of the public asked where the amended draft was posted; staff and commissioners confirmed the 2016 plan appeared on the website but the amended document had not yet been posted. Commissioners agreed to make the amended draft available on the county website, provide printed copies to attendees after the meeting, and place the item on the agenda for the next meeting so the public could review it before formal action.
The hearing was left open and the item will be revisited at the next commission meeting after the amended draft is posted and copies distributed to interested residents.
