West Bountiful's audit for the year ended June 30, 2025 carries an unmodified opinion and one state-compliance finding: spending in the golf, solid waste and redevelopment funds went past their final budgets. This series reads the city's audit and budget records line by line.
The agency received $201,398 in tax increment and spent $259,832, including $161,954 paid to a developer, drawing its fund balance down to $276,696. Its spending also exceeded the final budget by $2,732, which the audit attributes to a personnel-cost estimate.
