Title
Integrating Water Resource Conservation and Land Use Planning
Body
Requested Agenda Item Description: Salt Lake County leaders know that water resources are not unlimited and that more needs to be done for water conservation. Historically land development and water supply have been done in separate silos, however these practices are changing. John Berggren from Western Resource Advocates will present on the process of integrating water resources with land use planning and development. This important presentation will cover the process of how local governments can combine water and land use planning through a systematic process. The benefits and methods of water and land use integration will be discussed. Municipalities and counties across the west are using this process to conserve water and prepare for future growth.
