And You Thought You Had A Say In What Happens In Utah? But, You Are Just Endorsing A Pre-Planned Agenda.
"Utah may be the last place that comes to mind when one thinks about national innovation and leadership in regional planning. As a highly conservative state, Utah boasts a staunch property‐rights faction, along with a true western disdain for all things related to government control. With its strident skepticism of global climate change, and jealous regard for local control of all land use decisions, it would be surprising if Utah surpassed more liberal locales in its progress on regional cooperation and its adoption of quality growth ideas.1 And yet that is what has happened". ~ Brookings Institution UNLV Chapter
As to footnote #1... [1 In an example of how terminology can be critical, in Utah we do not use the term “smart growth,” as that is understood as planner‐speak for limited population growth and/or strong government coercion].
Brookings continues, "Utah has become an unlikely leader in regional planning through a voluntary
partnership of key leaders, agencies, local government, and the general public.
Given that regional planning efforts around the nation have generally evoked
strong reactions from residents concerned about losing local control, the
success of Envision Utah—the organization that emerged as a key driver of
regional planning in Utah—in building a consensus around regional growth
management holds lessons for other regions.
Envision Utah adopted several strategies that have distinguished Utah’s
regional planning efforts from other regions and given rise to what can be
called the “Utah model” of collaborative planning. Envision Utah found success
by not only tapping into people’s shared values and aspirations, but also
because of its significant public engagement, use of convincing, unbiased data
to demonstrate the need to work regionally, and ability to garner broad buy‐in
from important stakeholders in the community.
As more is learned from Envision Utah’s success in regional coordination, a
number of takeaways appear relevant for other regions:
Pay attention to the sustainability and capacity of the leading organization
Arm the public with clear data and analysis, skillfully marketed
Package all proposals and principles to appeal to the values of the community
Package all proposals and principles to appeal to the values of the community
Spend time initiating and maintaining the right political setup".
In other words, market your plan with flashy propaganda, define the "values" of any particular community although they may not be theirs they only responded to your survey, use "leaders", including political/religious leaders who outwardly promote the sustainable agenda and, control the narrative.
Salt Lake City received a $5 million Sustainable Communities Regional Planning grant to create a Regional Housing
Plan that will integrate housing recommendations with regional transportation plans. See
portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUD?src=/states/utah/news/HUDNo.2010‐10‐15. The award recognized the long‐term
regional partnership comprised of local governments, MPOs, transit authority, the University of Utah, private
enterprise, and Envision Utah itself. The team of individuals that had been working together and teaching each other
cooperatively for many years was able to mobilize quickly to respond effectively to the highly competitive grant
process. On a recent visit, HUD Secretary Shaun Donovan recognized the unusual longevity of the loose coalition,
saying: “Salt Lake City has not only been a leader, it’s also been a model for the entire nation with smart planning.”

Other insightful footnotes include:
9 The Cooperative County Plan is a multi‐year project designed to strengthen inter‐county relationships by linking
regional planning efforts such as transportation corridors, utilities easements, and data collection. For more
information see Salt Lake County Cooperative Plan, gis.rbf.com/slco/.
10 According to a study by Arthur Nelson and Matt Miller of the Metropolitan Research Center at the University of Utah, the total acreage of the half‐mile buffers surrounding pre‐2010 Trax Stations is 9148 acres, which is 1.8% of the
516,428 acres in Salt Lake County. The total household growth in that area was 3420 households, which is 7.00% of
the total household growth of 48,488 in Salt Lake County. The half mile 'buffer' near TRAX is getting denser than the
county average, with more HH per acre: An increase of .374 HH/acre within the half mile buffer, compared to 0.093
for the county average. No Trax buffer lost HH from 2000 to 2010.
15 Bowing to branding superiority, the Coalition for Utah’s Future was renamed “Envision Utah” in 2007.
25 In November 2006, Utah County residents voted to increase their sales tax by $0.0025 to fund accelerated work on four light rail projects and the Frontrunner South line. These projects were initially part of the Wasatch
Front Regional Council’s 2030 Long‐Range Plan. The additional funding accelerated the delivery of these projects
15 years earlier than projected. For more information see Utah Transit Authority’s Frontrunner South website at

38 Jon Huntsman, later Utah Governor, took over as board chair when Robert Grow was called away by the LDS
Church to serve a three‐year mission. Greg Bell, now the Lt. Governor, succeeded Huntsman. Envision Utah has had great leadership and, in a real sense, has been an incubator for state leadership. Email correspondence with

of Utah.

Now, I've been telling Utah that the Wasatch Regional Council, and those who head it like Andrew Gruber who is Metropolitan Planning Organization trained in Chicago and the American Planning Association is behind Agenda 21 in Utah for years. They should be on everyone's radar, but there is very little reported on them. You must realize these individuals and groups have to use deception in their words while also operating in plain sight to accomplish their United Nations goals while receiving accolades to keep the engine running. I recommend everyone read the document published by the Brookings Institute, it will help you discover the wolf in sheep's clothing.
Is it any wonder why the United Nations selected Salt Lake City to host 2019 United Nations NGO Conference in 2019?
With all the mind control fostered by using the cult mentality, Here's why this United Nations conference will be held in Utah instead of New York for the first time ever. The education is complete!
"This generation has so much to offer to help determine concrete actions to make communities more inclusive and sustainable," Alison Smale, United Nations Under-Secretary-General for global communications.She continued,
"Driving out here from the center of town, one is struck by the number of cars on the road," she added. "What are we going to do? Are we going to have conventional cars driving around for much longer? When will public transit — of which you have some great examples in Salt Lake — really become the mode of transport? Is that an impossible dream?"~ Priceless!
If you haven't caught on yet, this whole Agenda in Utah is being DRIVEN by the guru of transportation, Andrew Gruber (MPO/WFRC), using Envision Utah to create a psyop in order to convince people IT IS THEIR IDEA! THEY WANT YOU OUT OF YOUR CAR and packed like sardines into the city center where you are more easily CONTROLLED! Check out Grindall61 videos he explains this very well, he also has many more videos on YT.
