Growth Planning

HOME | ABOUT WFRC | CONTACT US | SITE MAP

 

In 2003, the Regional Council adopted recommendations by the Regional Growth Committee (RGC) to reconstitute the RGC and to give the Committee greater importance in the Region’s planning activities.  With this change, the RGC is now made up of mostly elected officials, rather than local planners and other representatives from the public and private sectors.  The RGC serves as the policy advisory body to the Regional Council on long-range transportation planning, land use and other growth related issues.  The RGC is primarily responsible for the Region’s Regional Transportation Plan, corridor preservation, and developing regional growth planning strategies in cooperation and coordination with local governments, the Utah Department of Transportation, the Utah Transit Authority, and other organizations and stakeholders.

 

As part of the RGC, Technical Committees have been established and function in the Ogden/Layton Urbanized Area, and in the Salt Lake Urbanized Area.  The purpose of these Committees is to serve as technical advisory bodies to the RGC on the Regional Long Range Transportation Plan, regional growth strategies, and other growth planning issues.  The Committees are comprised of a diverse and broad membership from federal, state, and local governments, and from the private sector.  The membership has been drawn from the pool of the region’s professionals and others with technical expertise in their respective disciplines.  They provide technical advice and input to the transportation planning process, and other planning issues.
