Board of Education Meeting and Public Hearing Live Stream - June 16, 2026

The Granite Schools Board of Education held a meeting and public hearing on June 16, 2026, primarily focused on discussing and adopting the district's budget and related tax rates for the fiscal year 2026-2027. The board reviewed a proposed budget that includes a $21 million tax increase above the certified rate, with detailed presentations on fund allocations across general operations, capital outlay for school construction and renovations, and debt service. Key capital projects include the completion of Skyline High School and improvements at Taylorsville High, Moss Elementary, and Plymouth Elementary. The board discussed unfunded legislative mandates such as school safety requirements and parental leave, which are being funded through district resources. Public comments reflected concerns about the tax increase and support for additional funding to reduce class sizes. The board approved the final revised 2025-2026 budget, adopted the tentative 2026-2027 budget, set the preliminary tax rate, and authorized a truth in taxation hearing for August 18, 2026, to address the proposed tax increase and budget adoption.
