Eagle Mountain Police Records
Eagle Mountain uses the GRAMA process for records requests. GRAMA stands for Government Records Access and Management Act. It is the Utah law that sets the rules for public access to government files. The city directs people to file GRAMA requests through the state GRAMA Request website. The Eagle Mountain transparency page has links and details on how to start.
Your request must be in writing. Describe the records you need with enough detail for staff to find them. Name the person, the date of the incident, or the case number. Vague requests get sent back.
The screenshot below shows the Eagle Mountain City transparency page, which links to the GRAMA request process for arrest records in Eagle Mountain.
From this page, you can reach the state GRAMA portal and submit your request. The city has up to ten business days to respond under state law.
Fees for Eagle Mountain Records
Standard fees apply to all GRAMA requests in Eagle Mountain. Copies cost $0.25 per page. Staff time past the first 15 free minutes runs $20 to $25 per hour. If the request is large, the city may ask for payment up front. These are the same rates used across Utah under GRAMA.
Certified copies and media files like audio or video may cost more. The city will let you know the total before they start if the cost is expected to be high.
What Eagle Mountain Arrest Records Show
An arrest record is not a conviction. It shows that officers had probable cause to take someone into custody. The file captures the facts from that point forward. Once charges are filed, the case moves to court, and the court makes its own records.
Eagle Mountain arrest records may include:
- Name and date of birth of the person
- Date, time, and place of the arrest
- Charges filed at booking
- Arresting officer name
- Report or case number
State law protects some data from public view. Victims, minors, and open investigations are shielded under GRAMA. The city must cite the law if it holds back any part of your Eagle Mountain arrest records request.

Record Privacy in Eagle Mountain
Utah law divides records into groups. Public records are open to all. Private records relate to personal data. Protected records cover open cases and sensitive facts. Most Eagle Mountain arrest records are public, but the city can hold back parts that fall into private or protected groups under GRAMA.
If your request is denied, the city must tell you why and point to the law. You can appeal to the local records committee or to the state level. Under Utah Code 53-10-108, misuse of criminal history data from Eagle Mountain or elsewhere in Utah carries penalties. Records are for lawful use only.
