Wasatch County Solid Waste District noticed Oct. 7 hearing on $10 unsecured-load fee; no decisions in the record yet
The Wasatch County Solid Waste Special Service District noticed a public hearing for Oct. 7, 2026 on a state-required minimum $10.00 fee for vehicles arriving with unsecured loads at the Wasatch County Transfer Station. The agendas are published; minutes are not, so the supplied records show what was scheduled for discussion, not what the board decided.
No decisions recorded yet
All three records for the Oct. 7 meeting are marked "agenda only (minutes not yet published)." Nothing in the supplied material shows a vote, an adoption, or an outcome on any item. The meeting was noticed for 6:00 P.M. in the Council Chambers of the Wasatch County Administration Building, 25 North Main Street, Heber City, Utah. The notice states the start time was changed to 6:00 P.M. from a previously posted time.
The $10 unsecured-load fee
The hearing concerns H.B. 53, Litter Cleanup Amendments, which the district's notice describes as requiring all permitted landfills and transfer stations in Utah to charge a fee for vehicles arriving with unsecured loads. The notice states the minimum fee is $10.00 and that it affects the Wasatch County Transfer Station at 2015 W 3000 S, Heber, UT.
The supplied records give two different dates on the state requirement. One district summary describes the law as effective May 7, 2025. The hearing notice states the fee must be collected no later than July 1, 2026. Both dates appear in the records as written; the material provided does not reconcile them.
Financial report and 2027 budget
The agenda lists a presentation of the 2026 Quarter 3 Financial and Performance Report and the introduction of the 2027 Tentative Budget. Introducing a tentative budget is a starting step, not adoption. No dollar figures for either item appear in the supplied records.
Resolution 2026-3
The agenda lists a public hearing on Resolution 2026-3 regarding a "TARP law fee increase." The records do not describe the resolution's contents, the size of any fee change, or what TARP refers to. No vote on the resolution is recorded in the material provided.
What residents can check
The fee question centers on the transfer station at 2015 W 3000 S, Heber, UT, which is the facility the notice identifies as affected. Whether the district adopted anything on Oct. 7, and what the 2027 tentative budget contains, cannot be determined from agendas alone. The district's published minutes would be the record to consult once available.
Coming up
No upcoming meetings for the Wasatch County Solid Waste Special Service District appear in the supplied data for the next 14 days. The records describe the Oct. 7 session as the district's quarterly meeting, but do not list a date for the next one. Residents who want to attend should confirm the schedule against the district's posted agendas before making plans.

Wasatch County Solid Waste District Notices Oct. 7 Hearing on $10 Unsecured-Load Fee and 2027 Tentative Budget
The Wasatch County Solid Waste Special Service District noticed a quarterly meeting for Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2026, at 6:00 P.M. in the Council Chambers of the Wasatch County Administration Building, 25 North Main Street, Heber City, Utah. The agenda listed a public hearing on a state litter law, a resolution on a fee increase, a quarterly financial report and an introduction of the 2027 tentative budget.
Only the notice and agenda have been published. Minutes were not available as of Oct. 13, 2026, so nothing below should be read as a final decision. The materials provided contain no vote tallies.
Public hearing on the $10 unsecured-load fee
The hearing concerned H.B. 53, Litter Cleanup Amendments, which the notice says requires all permitted landfills and transfer stations in Utah to charge a fee for vehicles arriving with unsecured loads. The minimum fee is $10.00. The notice states the requirement affects the Wasatch County Transfer Station at 2015 W 3000 S, Heber, UT.
The posted materials give two different dates for when collection must begin. One summary says the state law took effect May 7, 2025, and describes the collection start date as mandatory. Another says the minimum $10.00 fee must be collected no later than July 1, 2026. The record provided does not reconcile the two.
The notice also states the meeting time was changed to 6:00 P.M. from a previously posted time.
Other agenda items
- Public hearing on Resolution 2026-3, described as concerning a "TARP law fee increase." The record does not explain what TARP refers to or the size of any increase.
- Presentation of the 2026 Quarter 3 Financial and Performance Report.
- Introduction of the 2027 Tentative Budget. No figures appear in the materials provided.
- Discussion of H.B. 53 litter cleanup amendments.
What the record does and does not show
The transfer station at 2015 W 3000 S is the facility named as affected by the unsecured-load fee. The notice describes the fee as required by state law, which the notice presents as the basis for the hearing rather than a district choice about whether to charge it. The record does not go beyond that description.
No dollar amounts for the 2027 tentative budget, the quarterly report or the TARP resolution appear in the materials provided. No vote counts appear either. Whether the district adopted the resolution, set a budget figure or took any other action on Oct. 7 is not established by the documents available.
Coming up
No upcoming meetings of the Wasatch County Solid Waste Special Service District are listed in the next 14 days in the records provided. Readers should check the district's official postings for the published minutes of the Oct. 7 meeting and for any future hearing dates.
