The General Plan draft is organized around three main sections that we want you to learn about.
Vision & Key Initiatives
Herriman’s community vision is based on the common values and priorities identified during the planning process. These are captured and reflected in four Key Initiatives that form the framework for the General Plan policies and the decisions the city makes regarding Herriman’s future:
- Growing Wisely - creating a healthy and safe community with diverse, high quality neighborhoods that maximize quality open spaces and views, strengthen the fiscal sustainability of the city, and promote water and resource conservation.
- Optimizing Open Spaces - ensuring quality open spaces are provided for all of Herriman.
- Maximizing Unique Fiscal Opportunities - leveraging the city’s inherent assets and desirable location to facilitate bringing non-typical uses and development to the community.
- Enhancing and Supporting Community and Culture - accommodating a range of needs and desires for community amenities and community character, recognizing differences may be based on age, length of residency, and household configuration.
Future Land Use & Development
Herriman is a community of diverse neighborhoods with a range of housing and lot types, open spaces, amenities, services, shopping areas, and employment opportunities. Regardless of differences in the uses and development patterns, there remains a shared love and appreciation for the outdoors, open spaces, active lifestyles, and the spectacular views that define Herriman. The Future Land Use categories have been updated to help Herriman City communicate more clearly the vision and intent of future growth and development patterns.
Action Plan
Herriman City will use a detailed and specific set of strategic action items to achieve the vision outlined in the General Plan. This follow-up framework for implementing the ideas and direction of the General Plan will help make it a relevant and useful guide.
