Daniel reviews 2026 general plan draft; officials say plan will guide future zoning and code updates

Town officials reviewed the draft 2026 general plan at a public meeting and urged residents to read the draft online and submit comments. A meeting official said the town reviews its general plan every five years and that the document provides the framework for subsequent zoning and code decisions.

"So what we have is general plan. We look at it every 5 years. That's what's going on tonight," a moderator said, explaining the plan guides later land-use decisions. Organizers said the draft is posted on the town website for review and comment. "We posted it on the website. We advertised it. We send it out. And out of the population, I'm gonna say 941 because that's what I believe it is ... We got 106 responses out of the town of 941," a commenter announced during the meeting.

Staff directed residents to danielutah.gov to view the 2026 general plan draft and encouraged on-the-spot comments. Officials said, after public review, relevant parts of the plan will be folded into the town code and that additional code changes would follow from the plan.
