Snyderville Basin Rec district presents 2025 tentative budget; council adopts
Summary
Snyderville Basin staff presented a 2025 draft budget focused on maintaining programs and modest growth, including capital placeholders for a mobile visitor center and front-end loader; the council adopted the district’s tentative 2025 budget as presented.
Snyderville Basin Special Recreation District representatives presented their 2025 tentative budget to the Summit County Council on Nov. 6 and answered questions about revenue assumptions and capital priorities.
The district said it expects about a 4% increase in property-tax revenue for 2025 and modest increases in interest income and program revenue. Staff is budgeting for a 3% cost-of-living adjustment and up-to-3% merit increases for full-time staff, and to add a small number of part-time positions in accounting and marketing. The district projected impact fees conservatively, citing weaker new-connection activity in 2024.
On capital, the district listed a mobile visitor center to support ranger programming, field-house front-desk and locker-room renovations driven in part by changes in state law regarding all-gender locker spaces, and equipment purchases including a front-end loader intended to help maintain trailheads and heavy winter clearing.
Council members pressed staff to present future budget tables with actuals plus year-end forecasts and proposed budget comparisons; staff agreed to provide that information at the public hearing. Following the presentation and questions, the council moved to adopt the Snyderville Basin Special Recreation District’s tentative 2025 budget as presented and approved the motion unanimously.
