Public hearing set for proposed 2025 property tax changes for police and fire services

Herriman residents are invited to give feedback on proposed property tax adjustments that would help maintain police, fire, and emergency medical services. The City will hold two public hearings on Tuesday, August 13, 2025.

Understanding your property tax bill

If you live in Herriman, your property tax bill includes charges from more than a dozen different agencies—such as the school district, Salt Lake County, and several special districts. The Herriman City Council oversees only three of them:

1. Herriman City Safety Enforcement Area (HCSEA): funds police services
2. Herriman City Fire Service Area (HCFSA): funds fire and emergency medical services
3. Herriman City: funds a portion of all other City services

The proposed changes affect only the police and fire service areas. The City’s general property tax rate is not changing in 2025.

What’s being proposed

To keep up with rising costs, the fire district (HCFSA) is proposing a revenue increase of about 1.7%, and the police district (HCSEA) is proposing an increase of about 5.2% compared to last year. These adjustments are not intended to expand services—they’re meant to help cover the increasing costs of equipment, vehicles, and staffing as prices go up over time.

When and where to participate

Date: Tuesday, August 13, 2025
Location: Herriman City Hall, 5355 W. Herriman Main Street

6:30 p.m. – HCFSA hearing (fire and EMS)
