About the company

Utah County is the local government for Utah Valley, the area around Provo south of Salt Lake City. Its offices value property for taxation, collect taxes, keep deeds and land records, run elections and issue marriage licenses. The Sheriff's Office polices unincorporated areas and contract cities and runs the county jail, while the health department works on disease prevention, food safety and vital records. An elected Board of Commissioners acts as the executive and legislative branch, sets the tax rate and adopts the budget, alongside separately elected officials such as the sheriff and county attorney. The county was created in 1850 and is headquartered in Provo, Utah.
