selected Coalville as one of the locations for its national traveling exhibit, called Crossroads, which highlights change in rural America.
"Rural communities are changing. That's not necessarily a bad thing. We tend to always think it's a bad thing, but it can be a good thing," Wood said. "It's just a matter of listening to each other." Wood is also the project director of the Coalville exhibit. She understands how rural Main Streets are changing, how tough it is for many mom and pops to stay in business, and also the importance of making sure local voices are heard whenever outside voices start coming in.
"One of the struggles is how do we welcome new people, new ideas, into our community but keep that rural identity," she said.It is a question some Utah communities, like St. George, Lehi and even Moab, have been trying to answer as growth has started changing their identities.Chappell hopes Coalville doesn't get as big as those communities, but he figures some change might be a good thing.
"Everyone needs a place to live," he said. "Again, I am not against development. But we would like to see it done in a smart way.", such as Heber City, Price, Green River, Leeds, Ephraim, Brigham City and Blanding.
