Planning & Development Focus Areas

The Planning and Development Department provides strategic planning and local technical assistance to the Metro Townships including Copperton, Emigration Canyon, Kearns, Magna, White City, the Town of Brighton, and the unincorporated area of Salt Lake County.

Our goal is to support community management policies, plans, and programs that address a wide range of issues including land use, housing, infrastructure, natural resources, economic development, growth management, and the delivery of services.

Planning and Development is focused on measurable results to drive operations and the budgeting process. An objective in 2019 was to align a shared vision and management framework by incorporating the organization's goals, targets, business processes, IT projects, policies, staff performance and other key fundamentals.

The overall goal of the department is to reach improvement targets by sharing tools and skill sets needed to integrate individual functions into a single system and framework.
