The 4 part process we follow
when establishing a UIPA project area
The Utah Inland Port Authority works in partnership with municipalities and counties throughout the project area process.
1. Resolve
A municipality or county can request UIPA commence work on drafting a project area plan. The municipality or county adopts a project area resolution in a public meeting.
2. Draft
UIPA staff work with the municipality or county to develop a project area plan or amend a project area plan for the UIPA board to review in at least 2 public UIPA board meetings.
3. Adopt
The UIPA board may adopt a project area or project area amendment in a public meeting.
4. Build & Measure
This phase will take 25 years to complete. During this phase, construction, development, and recruitment will occur in the project area. Project area budgets are annually prepared and adopted by the UIPA board. In addition, project area KPIs are reported and shared.
