PURPOSE
In accordance with Utah Code 10-6-135.5, notice is hereby given that the Ogden City Council will hold a public hearing to receive public comment on transfers included in the proposed fiscal year 2026-2027 budget from the city's Enterprise Funds, including the Water, Sanitary Sewer, Storm Sewer, and Refuse Funds, to the city's General Fund. The amounts shown in this notice are the maximum amounts proposed. The actual amounts approved in the budget or transferred during the fiscal year may be less.
BACKGROUND
In Ogden City, the Water, Sanitary Sewer, Storm Sewer, and Refuse Utility Funds are accounted for as Enterprise Funds. This means they operate separately from the city's General Fund and are supported with user fees, which include utility rates, charged for goods and services. In the proposed fiscal year 2026-2027 budget, the city is proposing to transfer funds from these Utility Funds into the city's General Fund to act as the collection of franchise and property taxes, which are paid by other businesses or non-city utilities. More information on the Utility Enterprise Fund Transfer can be found at www.ogdencity.gov/utilitytransfers.
