Background

At a special meeting on August 10, 2026, the Kaysville City Council unanimously approved placing a general obligation bond of up to $16.5 million for a new west-side fire station on the November ballot, according to the meeting minutes.

City staff told the Council that the estimated combined cost of debt service, staffing and operations would be about $306 a year for the average Kaysville household.

KSL reported on October 12, 2026 that the Council later voted at a special meeting to cancel the bond election even though ballots had already been printed and mailed. The mayor said votes on the question will be null and void.

According to KSL, the cancellation followed complaints that the city had not solicited arguments against the bond as required under 2025 legislation, and the city expects to place the question on the November 2027 ballot.

Put on the ballot by Kaysville City Council, August 10, 2026 (later canceled by the Council).
