This is a call to all of who care deeply about the future of the Wasatch Canyons. We are the stewards of the mountains and canyons that have given us an abudance of clean water, a place of refuge for our families, adventure, play, and spectular beauty.
 
It has been twenty years since Salt Lake County created a Master Plan for the Wasatch Canyons. We have all been the beneficiaries of that process and now the future of the Wasatch is in our hands.  We need each of your voices to guarantee the protection of the watershed, ensure balanced land use, environmental protection, and sustainable transportation.  We are the ones who need to protect our canyons from the corporate development that would diminish our wilderness legacy for future generations.  
 
Envision Utah is leading a process called “Wasatch Canyons Tomorrow.”  The project starts with a series of community dialogues focused City Creek, Emigration, Red Butte, Parleys, Millcreek, Big Cottonwood, and Little Cottonwood Canyons. Envision Utah will be conducting workshops using interactive keypad polling, which gages reaction to planning strategies in real time.  The information gathered from these events will greatly influence future protection of our canyons.
 
Here is how you can help:  
 
Attend one of the workshops scheduled for May 12^th, 13^th, and 14th so you can help guide Envision Utah in developing proposed future scenarios for the Wasatch.  The cost to you is a few hours, but priceless for our quality of life and for the lives of generations to come.
