Cedar City » It has taken more than three years of planning and the acquisition of 2,000 acres, but Cedar City is poised to give final approval to the largest development in the city's history -- perhaps one of the biggest in Utah.
The Cordero development will include commercial space, nearly 8,000 housing units and a 36-hole Jack Nicklaus golf course, and will take 25 to 30 years to complete.
"Cordero" is Spanish for lamb, reflecting the important sheep industry in the region.
