Raised Granite School District's property tax rate to 0.006133 (10.26% more revenue)

Motion to set the 2026 property tax rate at 0.006133, after a Truth in Taxation hearing

Moved by Julie Jackson, seconded by Connie Burgess.

What was said

• The district said the increase is about $21.1 million, 10.26% above the certified rate, to fund operational and capital priorities.
• 15 residents commented at the hearing. The board then adopted the 2026-27 budget, also 6–1.
• Because of a question about how the first motion was worded, the board voted on the rate again; the result was the same, 6–1.
