THE COUNTYS mayors received the plan during their regular monthly Council of Governments meeting held in Farmington. It would include formation of planning districts where area cities and the county planning department could coordinate growth planning. In the plan presented by Planner John Janson, efforts would include data compilation and analysis. Master plans from each city would be presented to the county planning commission by a district made up of members from city council and the city planning commissions. Were preparing a way for the cities to talk to one another (on planning). Were not proposing a new rule for the county, said Joe Moore, planning director. ACTIVITIES would include collecting city plan information on land use acreages, what is already there and what is proposed; population projections; traffic flows; tax and economic information; utilities and the 1980 census. Use of that information would be coordinated further with groups including the Davis County Housing Authority to help establish deterioration areas and determine low income areas. IN ANALYZING data, areas of land uses in conflict and gaps between plans and overlap would be determined. Other areas would include goal and policy statements, a look at the economic tax base, industrial land use and incorporation of previous county studies, such as hillside, prime agricultural lands, flood plains and housing assistance plans. Energy areas would also be studied, Mr. Janson said, in line with recent moves on federal and state levels. Such a study would include identification of problem areas by land use, investigation of design schemes for future development, building standards and transportation and mass transit. A THIRD phase, covering plan development, would feature a goal and policy segment with district hearings. To hopefully resolve land use conflicts, presentations would be made to city councils and the county commission. Land use alternatives would be formulated, including locating prime industrial sites, hazardous building areas vs. prime residential sites, recreation including mountain and lake access and emphasizing urban sprawl issues vs. agricultural preservation. IN THE actual plan, or phase four, district and coun- tywide goals and policies would be stipulated, a future land use plan and map prepared and transportation recommendations noted. A recreation plan, for instance, would feature a regional park plan, access routes to mountains and lakes, hunting and bird watching areas. Antelope Island and gravel pit rehabilitation and solid waste sites. ADOPTION WOULD come after public hearings in each district and action by the planning commission and county commission hearing and action. On implementation, zoning ordinances would see revision, emphasis placed on obtaining grants for housing, redevelopment and weatheri-zatio- n and other possible funding sources. An energy education program and ordinance development would be included. CITIZEN participation would be sought through district meetings, workshops and countywide public adoption meetings. In explaining present development policy, Assistant County Planner Albert Cole said no real changes had been made since 1969 with basic policy being, urban development should occur within a municipality. HE SAID that had been largely followed except in Val Verda and Oakridge near Farmington. About 190 lots In many areas, such as west Farmington, extensive de- velopment may be halted due to lack of adequate sewage facilities, Mr. Cole explained. The health department, for example, has said further development should be halted there because 90 percent of septic tank capacity has been utilized. MOST COUNTY areas are zoned agricultural, ranging from small agricultural plats to heavy A-- 3 zoning, he noted. Two types of subdivisions have been allowed, one with four lots of less and the other up to seven acres with 20 foot y on the smaller subdivisions and 25 feet for the larger. But sewer and water needs must be guaranteed for such development, he added, tb right-of-wa- Danny Peugh Trains In Missouri Pvt. Danny R. Peugh, son of Mr. and Mrs. Melvin H. Peugh, 1676 Forbes.
