The Regional Growth Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meeting held on July 30, 2025, focused on key discussions surrounding transit data collection and future meeting logistics. The meeting highlighted the importance of the onboard survey conducted by the Utah Transit Authority (UTA), which plays a crucial role in understanding transit options and behaviors within the regional travel model. Committee members expressed appreciation for the survey, emphasizing its value in improving travel forecasting, particularly for transit-related planning.

In addition to transit discussions, the committee addressed the need for a host for their upcoming meeting scheduled for September 17. Clearfield was initially suggested as a host, but Bountiful ultimately volunteered to take on the responsibility. The committee discussed the logistics of the meeting, including the need for a venue that can accommodate at least 50 people and has audio-visual capabilities.

The meeting also included a light-hearted exchange about community presentations, with various members volunteering to present updates from their respective areas. Notably, West Haven's representative offered to provide a community highlight during the Bountiful meeting, which will include an ice cream gathering beforehand, adding a community-focused touch to the event.

Overall, the meeting underscored the collaborative efforts of regional leaders to enhance transit planning and foster community engagement through upcoming events. The next steps involve finalizing details for the Bountiful meeting and ensuring that community presentations are prepared to share local developments.
