Governor Spencer Cox is asking Utahns to take a survey to help guide state leaders in making planning decisions to prepare for future growth.
"We’re hoping to get lots of input from people about the future of Utah," the governor said.
The survey itself will be tailored to people's zip codes, so rural Utahns won't be asked to weigh in on skyscraper developments along the Wasatch Front. Utah is actually one of the more urban states in the country, said Utah League of Cities and Towns Executive Director Cameron Diehl. The Governor's Office of Planning & Budget has already done some work, surveying Utahns to narrow themes of this latest round of questions.
Right now, Utah has about 3.4 million people living here. But the University of Utah's Kem C. Gardner Institute estimates the population will grow to 5.5 million by 2060. A large portion of that will be migration from outside Utah.
