Can “Mountain Accord” breeds disagreement?

Mountain Accord is a public process, bringing together more than 20 organizations and nearly 200 stakeholders to create a blueprint for preserving the future legacy of the central Wasatch region, including most of Salt Lake City and Park City.
Last night, I went to their first official public input session in Park City, got an earful from a various bunch of folks who chronically forget that tourism dollars are what makes this place so special and I also heard that “One Wasatch” wasn't front and center.

It should, though, in the effort of easing on transportation needs, making it better for the environment, stimulating the local economy and making our recreational opportunities even more wonderful.

Oh, yes, I also learned that “Mountain Accord” had already cost $450,000 of... you guessed it... Taxpayers' money!
