Box Elder, the Co-op and a New Name
William Davis explored the area in 1850 and returned with families the next year. Lorenzo Snow brought more settlers in 1853 and named the town Box Elder in 1855. A mercantile co-op store opened in 1864 and grew into the most successful of the church's cooperative ventures. When the town incorporated on January 12, 1867, it took the name Brigham City, and Brigham Young gave his last public sermon there in 1877.

Brigham City Questions on Peach Crate Labels
How many pets can I keep in Brigham City?
Up to four animals in total, cats and dogs combined, with no more than three dogs. Surrounding communities may have different rules.
How much does it cost to adopt from the Brigham City Animal Shelter?
$25, plus a mandatory $100 sterilization fee when the animal still needs to be spayed or neutered.
Where is the Brigham City Animal Shelter?
At 1220 W. Forest Street. Call the shelter at 435-723-1231 with questions.
Where do Brigham City residents buy a dog license?
In person at City Hall, 20 North Main, (435) 734-6600. Brigham City requires dogs to be licensed and vaccinated against rabies.
When is Peach Days in Brigham City?
On the weekend after Labor Day, when much of Main Street closes to cars for a parade, a car show, a carnival and other events.
Does an online registry certificate make a pet an ESA in Utah?
No. Utah defines a support animal by federal accommodation law, and misleading a health care provider to get documentation is a class C misdemeanor under Utah Code 26B-6-805, so what matters is an honest evaluation by a licensed clinician.
