The Herriman City Fire Service Area approved an amendment to its Fiscal Year 2026 budget, allocating an additional $900,000 from its fund balance to purchase land for a new fire station in the city's southeast. This is due to higher-than-expected appraisal costs for the land, bringing the total budget for the land purchase to $1.9 million. The fund balance is expected to be reimbursed by future fire impact fee collections, ensuring essential public safety infrastructure can be developed.
