The Central Wasatch Commission Situational Assessment 

---

Following the November 2021 Retreat of the Board of Commissioners, the Central Wasatch Commission contracted with the Common Ground Institute for an independent assessment of the organization in order to achieve the following:

 

1. Redefine and recertify Mountain Accord
2. Recommit to Mountain Accord
3. Review the current structure of the Central Wasatch Commission Board
4. Review the current management structure of the Central Wasatch Commission.

 

The overall objective of the assessment has been to review and redefine the Mountain Accord Charter, which was signed six years ago, in 2015. Through one-on-one interviews with Commissioners, Stakeholders, and a survey released to the public, Common Ground Institute implemented edits to the original Mountain Accord Charter, resulting in the draft Central Wasatch Compact.

 

The Central Wasatch Commission Board met on Monday, March 7th to deliberate over the outcomes of the situational assessment, performed by Common Ground Institute. Through that discussion, the Board of Commissioners determined that the Central Wasatch Commission would further solicit public comment on the draft Restatement and Recommitment of the Values and Principles of the Mountain Accord document now through Tuesday, March 22nd at 5:00 p.m.
