2026 Redesignation

To be redesignated in Spring 2026, Harrisville, Utah continued to support the health and wellbeing of its residents. The city conducted a moveability audit to identify and strengthen community access to open lands such as parks, employment centers, shopping, and educational opportunities. This effort helped create a more connected and accessible environment for residents, ensuring that a strong foundation is in place for improved overall health and wellbeing.
