About the Metro Township
The Emigration Canyon Metro Township is a Utah municipality. As such it is a governmental entity with general police powers. It can, within its jurisdiction, create and enforce laws; and it has limited taxing power. It was created by a vote of the residents of Emigration Canyon in 2015. The Township is governed by an elected council consisting of five members, one of whom is selected by the others to be the mayor. The Council is the legislative body of the Township. The mayor is the chief executive officer of the Township.
The Township has all of the municipal powers available to Utah municipalities under the Utah Municipal Code with the exception of certain taxing powers. It does not have the power to enact a property tax or municipal energy taxes (sometimes called franchise taxes).
The Township council has the authority to enact laws and ordinances to carry out its responsibilities such as land use and development regulations (zoning). As long as these laws are not inconsistent with the Utah Municipal Code and other state statutes.

Netflix says you need 5 Mbps to stream full HD content and a data rate of 25 Mbps (megabits per second) for 4K Ultra HD content. However, you’ll want even faster speeds if you plan to connect several devices at once. The same holds true for other streaming services as well as for game-streaming services like Twitch.
-
Multiple devices demand more bandwidth. If you plan on streaming 4K video content and have multiple devices connected to your network at the same time, you should seriously consider investing in a plan
that can provide faster download speeds, such as 200 Mbps. This speed should work for more data-hungry households.
-
Check your Wi-Fi connection. Sometimes the problem isn’t how much speed your Internet Service provider(ISP) is giving you. It is possible that your ISP is providing you speeds of 100mbps but your wireless router is old and outdated and therefore is only capable of transmitting 30mpbs of that bandwidth. By simply updating your wireless router your devices will be able to connect wirelessly at the full speed potential of the internet connection.
