Taylorsville Bennion Improvement District

What Taylorsville Bennion Improvement District does

Taylorsville Bennion Improvement District (TBID) is a municipal water and sewer utility serving the Taylorsville and Bennion communities in Salt Lake County, Utah. Established in 1957 and operating as a political subdivision of the State of Utah, the district is governed by an elected board of trustees and functions as a regulated public utility with exclusive franchise rights within its service territory. Its core products are water distribution and sewer (wastewater) collection services supplied to residential households, commercial properties, and developers/contractors building within the district. Operational infrastructure includes service lines, customer meters, hydrant flushing programs, water quality monitoring and reporting, and lateral management, supported by a District-Wide Drought Contingency Plan and ongoing water conservation programming.

The district's technology stack is conventional municipal utility IT rather than a proprietary platform. Customer-facing services are delivered through a third-party online bill payment portal powered by XpressBillPay, a separate meter portal running on the My360 App, and a publicly published service line inventory system. The district website is hosted on the Revize government CMS. The proprietary features observed (online bill payment, meter portal, service line inventory, drought response monitoring) are best characterized as off-the-shelf integrations built around utility industry vendors rather than internally developed technology, and there is no evidence of internally developed models, APIs, or developer platform capabilities.

TBID generates revenue through two streams: recurring usage-based water and sewer utility fees billed monthly to residential and commercial customers, supplemented by property assessments levied against properties within the improvement district for infrastructure and maintenance. Pricing is regulated and not publicly disclosed on the main website. The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer within the fixed territory, with no expansion into adjacent jurisdictions in the source data. Marketing and customer communication rely on the official website and organic social channels (Facebook, X/Twitter, LinkedIn) plus formal public notices for board meetings, elections, and regulatory updates. The district is led by Mark Chalk as General Manager / CEO.

Broad incumbents

• Essential Utilities: Multi-state regulated water and natural gas utility with a growing wastewater segment. Comparable regulated utility business model with similar recurring, usage-based plus fixed-charge revenue mix to TBID.
• California Water Service Group: Investor-owned water utility serving California, Washington, New Mexico, Hawaii, and Texas. Comparable regulated, geographically diverse water-utility operations, though at much larger scale and as a for-profit, listed entity versus TBID's public-utility model.
• Middlesex Water Company: Investor-owned water and wastewater utility in New Jersey and Delaware. Comparable regulated water-utility economics, treatment/distribution infrastructure, and customer mix, providing a small-cap public-market comparable for TBID's revenue model.
• American Water Works Company: Largest publicly traded US water and wastewater utility, serving over 14 million people across 14 states. Relevant as a public-market comparable for rate-regulated water/wastewater economics, though at vastly greater scale and geographic breadth than TBID.

Regional players

• Salt Lake City Department of Public Utilities: Municipal water, sewer, and stormwater utility serving Salt Lake City proper. Comparable services and regulatory environment but larger scale and broader service territory than TBID.
• Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District: Larger wholesale and retail water provider in the Salt Lake Valley. Comparable business (water delivery) but operates at greater scale and as a conservancy district, supplying many of the same municipalities TBID serves.

• Central Valley Water Reclamation Facility: Utah wastewater treatment facility serving multiple Salt Lake Valley communities, including TBID-area flows. Directly comparable as a sanitary/sewer service provider in the same regional water and wastewater value chain.
• Magna Water District: Water and sewer provider in the Magna area of Salt Lake County using the same special-district model. Comparable scale, customer base, and drought-response profile to TBID.
• Granger-Hunter Improvement District: Neighboring Utah improvement district providing water, sewer, and secondary water services in the Salt Lake Valley. Operates the same political-subdivision model with exclusive franchise territory and usage-based plus assessment revenue, making it the closest structural peer to TBID.
