March 19, 2026 CC Meeting

The Brigham City Corporation held a City Council meeting on March 19, 2026, which included several public hearings and actions related to land annexations and zoning changes. The council approved the annexation of 5.59 acres and 495.17 acres of land into the city limits, with discussions on future land use designations shifting from office light industrial to low and medium density residential to accommodate housing development. The council also approved an ordinance consolidating all city fees into a single fee schedule without changing fee amounts, improving transparency and administrative efficiency. Additionally, a detailed presentation on the electric utility's financial outlook was given, highlighting significant upcoming capital improvements including new substations and a new line crew, with projections of increased debt issuance and operating expenses. The council discussed potential residential rate adjustments, particularly the customer charge, to maintain reserve levels and cover capital costs, considering impacts on different customer usage profiles. No immediate rate changes were made, but the council indicated a preference for gradual increases in the customer charge over time. No specific contract awards or vendor selections were mentioned during the meeting.
