Tribal Consultation: an Essential Element of Peace & Mutual Prosperity »

2023 Spring Conference, May 11, 2023 3:50 pm

Many communities in Utah have tribal lands located near or within their jurisdictional boundaries. Tribes are sovereign nations and establishing a government-to-government relationship is essential to promoting coordination, cooperation and equity during the land use planning process. Session attendees will learn from experts how to facilitate this cooperation as we manage community development.
