Meadow hears about May regional growth summit, CIB portal changes and interactive zoning maps

Summary
Peterson told the council about a May regional growth summit for planning staff, explained that the Community Impact Board now uses a portal for project submissions (listing is eligibility, not commitment), and described UGRC’s interactive zoning-map service for the town.
Peterson, of the RSLIC Regional Council, briefed the council on three planning-related items: an upcoming regional growth summit in May for town planning and zoning staff, the Community Impact Board’s new portal-based submission process, and a Utah Geospatial Resource Center (UGRC) project to create interactive municipal zoning maps.
Why it matters: The growth summit offers training sessions (legal best practices, data privacy, planning commission operations, HR, land use, procurement). The CIB change means towns must register projects through a portal during the annual window to be eligible for critical-infrastructure funding (listing does not obligate a municipality to accept funding). UGRC’s interactive zoning maps would allow the town to publish clickable zone information (Meadow currently has two zones: commercial and residential).
Council members asked for the UGRC contact and accepted an offer to provide the town’s zoning map to UGRC. Peterson offered to help staff create CIB portal accounts and add projects. No funding decisions were made; council members were asked to provide materials and expected to have documents circulated by staff for follow-up.
Next steps: Staff to provide zoning-map files to UGRC if requested and to assist with CIB portal registration as needed.
