Endorsed by Realtors

In recognition of my call for a 20 year comprehensive plan for Provo, I have been endorsed by the hard working realtors of Utah County.


I propose that we create a plan with a 20-year vision of greatness for our City with the following components:

1) A reflection of our best dreamers.

2) A comprehensive plan not just a land use planning document (Including “health, general welfare, safety, water and energy conservation, transportation, prosperity, civic activities, aesthetics, and recreational, educational and culture opportunities);

3) A plan that adopts in code and development guidelines our vision rather than holding onto rezoning as a bargaining tool

4) A solution that doesn’t makes students feel like a separate class;

5) A plan that will address neighborhood problems at the root;

6) A plan that has transportation options equal to our needs and demands, including evacuation strategies in the case of emergencies;

7) A plan that maximizes our natural resources (Lake, rivers, canyons and mountains)

8) An acceptable solution for airport growth;

9) Great parks, trails and recreation options;

10) A strong backbone of public works infrastructure, including cutting edge technologies;

11) A plan that gives developers a clear understanding of what we are looking for so they can plan and build with confidence that if they meet expectations we will welcome and encourage them.
