Debt and bonds

In January the Enoch City Council set a $20,000 water impact fee per home, discounted to $6,500, and a sewer fee discounted to $1,500. In May it changed how water fees are calculated and set a $30.30 base water rate.

On July 1, 2026, three Enoch council members approved the Boots Frei development agreement, which calls for 25 acres of park land within five years, subject to clarified amendment language coming back to the council.
Audits and compliance
Enoch's 2025 audit found late posting of 2024 council minutes to state website
Auditors found that certain approved 2024 Enoch City Council minutes were not posted to the Utah Public Notice Website within three business days. They found no material weaknesses and gave unmodified opinions.
Other findings

Hub Pizza and Golden Hour Coffee asked for transportation impact fee reductions of about 81% and 74%. The council discussed the requests in August and September but took no vote, and the city's engineer asked for more data.
