Listen to City Council Meetings Live from your own Home

Park City Municipal is getting ready to deploy our new Meeting Management Software, Media Traq, an IQM2 product. This system is very user-friendly and will allow members of the public to listen the council meetings LIVE from the comfort of their own homes by simply selecting the meeting on our current webpage. We look forward to offering this ease and transparency to all the boards and commissions of Park City Municipal in the near future. We will begin with City Council on April 2.

The day was full of sharing new solutions, exchanging ideas, and networking.

Topics included rate structures and revenue resiliency; board presentations and rate cases; educating and communicating with customers; and land use planning / impact fees.

The conference was also written up in The Deseret News.
 

Vision Park City 2009: Let's Check In
 

Vision Park City 2009 was an open-ended dialogue among a cross-section of Parkites, including full- and part-time residents, employees, business owners, and other community stakeholders. Together, we discussed what we hold dear; identified concerns, challenges and future goals; and revealed a set of shared ideals to guide Park City in the future.

These community ideals can be summarized as follows:

1) Respect and conserve the natural environment
2) Promote balanced, managed, and sustainable growth ?
3) Preserve a strong sense of place, character, and heritage ?
4) Foster a strong sense of community vitality and vibrancy ?
5) Support and promote diversity in people, housing, and affordability ?
6) Advance a thriving, diverse, and sustainable economic base

Five years on, it is time to once more check in with our community. We want to know how we have done over the past five years, as well as receive feedback on direction for the next five to 10 years. We want you to be part of the conversation! Please let us know what you think by completing this short survey, and thank you for making your voice heard.
