The Five County Association of Governments is a voluntary association of
local governments from the five southwestern counties of the State of Utah.
The five counties in southwestern Utah that comprise the Five County Association of Governments
are Beaver, Garfield, Iron, Kane and Washington.
2009 marks the 37th anniversary of the establishment of the Association, although informal cooperation amongst the five member counties and municipalities has happened for more than half a century.
Farsighted leaders of the past envisioned the time when our world-class scenic landscapes, mild climate, beautiful communities and hard-working people would
foster the evolution of a major regional center in the West. That time has arrived. Southwestern Utah has come into its own. The Five County Association of Governments is a key player in aiding locally elected officials in coping with
regional challenges.
The Association has office locations in St. George City and in Cedar City. More information on the Association, including our Vision and Mission, as well as office addresses, can be found on the "What is The FCAOG" link on the "Information" tab above.
