Ogden Valley City Council
Sets the “” line on your property tax bill. Official website
Ogden Valley City is newly incorporated and doesn't levy its own property tax yet. The State Tax Commission ruled it missed a deadline to become a taxing entity; a court upheld that, and the city has appealed to the Utah Supreme Court. Until then, unincorporated-area services are funded through the county.
August 18, 2026 · Adopted 3–2
Approved a budget with a 512.6% property tax increase, if the Supreme Court allows it
Resolution 2026-38: Truth in Taxation budget, adopted on the condition of a favorable Utah Supreme Court ruling
Voted yes (3)
- Tia Shaw
- Don Hickman
- Kay Hoogland
Voted no (2)
- Peggy Dooling-Baker
- Chad Booth
Moved by Don Hickman, seconded by Kay Hoogland.
What was said
- The budget would raise about $2.48 million more a year. The city's notice estimated a $1,222,000 home's city tax would rise from $104.85 to $640.51.
- The city attorney said the vote preserves the city's ability to raise taxes if the Supreme Court rules in its favor; otherwise the budget already adopted stays in effect.
- Councilmember Dooling-Baker said she could not support the full 512% increase and that the budget should grow as the city is built. The mayor said adopting this budget was the middle ground and it could be cut later.
