Tooele County General Plan TOOELE COUNTY GENERAL PLAN Gillies Stransky Brems Smith Architects Wikstrom Economic & Planning Consultants CH2M Hill Williams & Hunt John Becker Public Relations November 1995 9906150184 990218 PDR ADOCK 07200022 B PDR Tooele County General Plan UTAH The lyrics of a John Gorka song titled "Houses in the Fields" poignantly describe the loss of a rural lifestyle and open space: They're growing houses in the fields between the towns... And the spaces won't be spaces anymore... Developers paid better than the corn But this is not where they were born... There's houses in the fields And the last few farms are growing out of here. The common thread of public comment received during the development of this plan was directed towards maintaining the rural lifestyle and open spaces of Tooele County, while accommodating growth and change. The public policy recommendations in this plan are directed toward a future for Tooele County where the spaces will be spaces.

Douglas Ramsey1 ABSTRACT.—Land managers and scientists need context in which to interpolate between or extrapolate beyond discrete field points in space and time. Ecological classification of land (ECL) is one way by which these relationships can be made. Until regional issues emerged and calls were made for ecosystem management (EM), each land management institution chose its own ECLs. The need for economic efficiency and the increasing availability of geographic informa- tion systems (GIS) compel the creation of a national ECL so that communication across ownership boundaries can occur.

FLORA OF THE STANSBURY MOUNTAINS, UTAH Alan C. Taye' Abstract.— The Stansbury Mountains of north central Utah rise over 2000 m above surrounding desert valleys to a maximum elevation of 3362 m on Deseret Peak. Because of the great variety of environmental conditions that can be found in the Stansburys, a wide range of plant species and vegetation types (from shadscale desert to alpine mead- ow) exist there. This paper presents an annotated list of 594 vascular plant species in 315 genera and 78 families. The largest families are Asteraceae (98 species), Poaceae (71), Brassicaceae (33), Fabaceae (27), and Rosaceae (26). Elymiis flcwescens was previously unreported from Utah. Statistical comparison of the Stansbury flora with neighboring mountain floras indicates that the Wasatch Mountains lying 65 km to the east have probably been the primary source area for development of the Stansbury flora.
