A new proposal in Grand County would allow developers to build up to 45 units per acre. But all of them – every single unit – must be restricted to households with very low to low median income. Today we speak with Elissa Martin, Grand’s Planning Director, on this proposal. Plus, numerous tribes encouraged a moratorium on drilling near Chaco Canyon. But the Biden Administration’s recent decision to do so has upset leaders of the Navajo Nation. And later, we preview the Moab City Council’s agenda.
