May 21, 2026 CC Meeting

The Brigham City Corporation held a City Council meeting on May 21, 2026, focusing extensively on water system infrastructure, water rate assessments, and capital improvement projects. Brett Jones presented an updated water rate assessment highlighting aging infrastructure needs, including replacement of old pipes and system components, and proposed water rate increases to cover operational, replacement, and capital costs. The council discussed various rate structures, including base fees and tiered usage rates, comparing them to neighboring cities. The meeting also covered a zoning ordinance amendment to restrict self-service storage facilities along 1200 West to preserve industrial areas for manufacturing. Additionally, the council reviewed a comprehensive list of capital projects across multiple city departments, including airport improvements, fire department training facilities, utility infrastructure upgrades, and fleet replacements. Budget discussions included the impact of proposed water rate increases and property tax adjustments on residents, with plans for further work sessions to finalize budget and tax decisions. Motions were passed to approve the zoning ordinance amendment and to move into a work session for capital projects review.
