The Daggett County Redevelopment Agency has crafted this Dutch John Community Development Project Area Plan to promote the development of a mixed-use, self-sustaining community within the Dutch John Project Area. The plan aims to foster economic growth and increase the tax base by attracting private investment through land provision, infrastructure development, and other incentives.
