This information is being used to develop a State plan for cardiovascular health. While most incorporated towns and cities in Utah have ordinances that establish side-- , walks in new communities (96.5 percent), only 4.6 percent of cities and towns have an ordinance in place for the establishment of bike lanes. Because many individuals report safety as one of the top reasons for not walking and ridingtheir bicycles, model ordinances for the establish-ment of bike lanes are necessary for the safety and enjoyment of the adults and children who would like to ride bikes for rec-- i reation, exercise, and transpor; ; ; tation. Greenways are park environ ments that in the past were a fqj cal point for community devei-- i opment, used as a commonplace for communities to gather and recreate. In our survey, only IB percent of Utahs cities and towns have established ordinances for the development of greenways In new communities Furthermore, a strong indicator of healthy community growth (increased property Values and attraction of new community members) is the establishment of recreational facilities such as parks and trails. From our survey, only 31 percent of Utahs cities and towns have ordinances requiring the establishment of recreational 1 facilities in new communities. While some of the results are ' promising, it Is clear that towns and cities need to begin to ex- plore their infrastructure as ' their communities continue to grow.
