Eagle Mountain -- Eagle Mountain City has joined the Utah Lake Commission, a group of local governments and state agencies with the goal of managing the Utah Lake area.
Eagle Mountain, which is in northern Utah County, northwest of Utah Lake, was added to the membership in a meeting Thursday.
"I am excited to welcome Eagle Mountain as a member of the Utah Lake Commission," said Reed Price, executive director of the Utah Lake Commission. "They are joining 20 other governmental organizations, including 14 municipal governments in Utah County, who are working to make Utah Lake a better appreciated and understood resource. Their voice will add strength to the numerous issues that the Commission is addressing concerning the lake's future."
According to the commission, its primary purposes are to encourage and promote multiple uses of Utah Lake, foster communication and coordination, promote resource utilization and protection, maintain and develop recreation access, and monitor and promote responsible economic development.
