It is intended, to the maximum extent allowed by law, to establish criteria, policies, and requirements to be followed in the various state and federal land planning processes and to provide consistency across agency boundaries while preserving and enhancing Beaver County’s custom, culture, resources, and socioeconomic base. The information used as the basis for this plan was obtained from various state and federal agencies, experts in various natural resources, public participation, and independent research. After this plan was completed and recommended, the Beaver County Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed plan on May 16, 2017. The Beaver County Planning and Zoning Commission then forwarded the plan to the Beaver County Commissioners. On June 6, 2017, the Beaver County Commissioners held another public hearing and formally adopted the plan by ordinance 2017-03. County History and Culture Natural resources

  • A History of Beaver County, Utah Centennial County History Series
    A HISTORY OF 'Beaver County Martha Sonntag Bradley UTAH CENTENNIAL COUNTY HISTORY SERIES A HISTORY OF 'Beaver County Martha Sonntag Bradley The settlement of Beaver County began in February 1856 when fifteen families from Parowan moved by wagon thirty miles north to Beaver Valley. The county was created by the Utah legislature on 31 January 1856, a week before the Parowan group set out to make their new home. However, centuries before, prehistoric peoples lived in the area, obtaining obsidian for arrow and spear points from the Mineral Mountains. Later, the area became home to Paiute Indians. Franciscan Friars Dominguez and Escalante passed through the area in October 1776. The Mormon settlement of Beaver devel­ oped at the foot of the Tushar Mountains. In 1859 the community of Minersville was es­ tablished, and residents farmed, raised live­ stock, and mined the lead deposits there. In the last quarter of the nineteenth century the Mineral Mountains and other locations in the county saw extensive mining develop­ ment, particularly in the towns of Frisco and Newhouse. Mining activities were given a boost with the completion of the Utah South­ ern Railroad to Milford in 1880. The birth­ place of both famous western outlaw Butch Cassidy and inventor of television Philo T. Farnsworth, Beaver County is rich in history, historic buildings, and mineral treasures.
