Ivins is working on an update of our General Plan and Land Use map. This will take at least a couple of months. There were three community meetings this week to get public input on potential land use changes the Planning Commission is considering.
The meetings were informal, but we received a lot of good comments. I expect there will be more meetings like this, although maybe not outdoors with hotdogs prepared by Mike Haycock, head of the Building Department.
Here’s something that will help us think about our city’s future and help us get ready for the next set of community meetings. Graduate students at Utah State University will present their research project titled, “The Growth of a Sustainable City: Envisioning the Future of Ivins” on April 26th at a special USU event.
We can participate by Zoom. There will be three presentations, starting at 2pm. The Ivins presentation is scheduled to begin at 3pm. You can join by Zoom using: Meeting ID: 850 8711 3435 and Passcode: 221145
