Commissioners approve PID amendment to allow boundary overlap for Promontory Commerce Center, limit borrowing to assessment bonds

The Weber County Board of Commissioners approved Resolution 10-20-26 on March 3, 2026, allowing a third amendment to the governing document for the Promontory Commerce Center public infrastructure districts so the boundaries of PID 1 may overlap into PIDs 2 and 3.

Stephanie Russell explained the change was requested to allow PID 1 to go to the bond market and issue assessment bonds that will fund the ongoing sewer project serving that corridor. "They're in the process of getting ready to go to the bond market," Russell said, adding that PID 1 will carry the upfront infrastructure costs and that the amendment is constrained so the overlap does not permit additional mills to be levied on PID 1 in perpetuity.

The amendment was recommended by the county's economic development finance committee and would be implemented by a narrow amendment to the governing document, Russell said, to ensure PID 1 can only issue assessment bonds while PIDs 2 and 3 are established later in the project timeline.

Commissioner Bolles moved to approve the resolution; Commissioner Jim Harvey seconded. The board took a roll-call vote and commissioners voted in favor. Commission records show Commissioners Bolles, Harvey and Chair Gage Frower voted aye and the motion carried.

The resolution allows the county to proceed with the financing structure Russell described for the sewer project; it also includes the county's limitation that PID 1 be limited to assessment bonds to prevent double assessments on properties within the overlapping boundaries. The board then moved on to other agenda items.
