Eagle Mountain Budget History
All financial decisions are backed by solid evidence to ensure responsible use of funds. If you need to report any concerns, our Fraud Hotline is always available at 801-789-6600 Ext. 5962.
Budgets
Using the vision outlined in the City’s 10-Year Strategic Plan set by the City Council, the Finance Department works with other City departments to develop a budget proposal. Each spring, the Eagle Mountain City Council reviews the proposal in a series of meetings and adopts a final budget for the next fiscal year, which starts on July 1st of each year.
Auditing
Each year, an independent third party audits the City’s finances. This audit produces an Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), which provides basic financial statements. A summarized version, the Annual Popular Financial Report (APFR), is also available for the public’s convenience.

Complaints can also be filed through the State Auditor Hotline Program.
