The County Commission will have the final say in deciding whether Clearfield may incorporate as a new city, and Wednesday night’s hearing is a requirement in the process for doing so. During the hearing, commissioners will hear testimony from people who reside within the 18-square-mile territory that petitioners are proposing as the new city’s boundaries. There are more than a dozen factors that will ultimately inform the commissioners’ decision, including the likelihood of significant growth there or in adjacent areas within the next 10 years and the new city’s proximity to other cities nearby.
