Groundbreaking held for The Commons at Herriman Town Center; city says project is private and expected to take about two years
Summary
Officials marked a groundbreaking for The Commons at Herriman Town Center, a largely commercial mixed-use development near Mountain View Corridor; the city said it is a private project, plans to complete in about 24 months, and specific tenants have not been announced.
John LaFollette and Mayor Palmer discussed the recent groundbreaking for The Commons at Herriman Town Center during the July 3 Herrimanology podcast, describing it as a primarily commercial mixed-use development that will add restaurants and retail to the community.
LaFollette said the project is located just off 130 South, west of Mountain View Corridor and near the emergency center (behind the Walmart and CVS). He said developers are "moving dirt" and that the project team indicated they plan to build multiple components in a single phase rather than piecemeal development. Mayor Palmer clarified this is a private development (not a city project) and that the city therefore cannot force private tenants or timelines; he said developers expect roughly 24 months for the project to be "up and running." Specific tenants were not announced on the podcast.
Both hosts framed the project as a long-sought economic and community amenity following earlier developments such as Mountain View Village; no formal city approvals or new budget measures were announced on the episode. The segment was informational, emphasizing the project's location, expected timeline and likely retail and dining benefits to Herriman residents.
