Summary: By 2050, twice as many people will call Utah County home. This rapid growth will be a challenge, but with foresight and collaboration, it’s an opportunity to make life in the valley even better than today. That’s why, in 2018, the Association of Utah County Chambers and Envision Utah launched Valley Visioning. Over two years, thousands of residents—along with business leaders, elected officials, university leaders, and others—came together to understand what choices we must make as we grow and to imagine a beautiful and prosperous future. The vision is the result.
