Murray ESA Letters and Psychiatric Service Dog Letters
Murray sits in the core of the Salt Lake Valley and had 50,637 residents at the 2020 census. The town that produced Utah's first smelted silver bars in 1870 now runs its own police, power and parks, and a free screening reviewed by a Utah-licensed clinician is how a support animal letter begins here.

Two Cottonwood Creeks and a Smelter Town
Pioneer families settled South Cottonwood in the fall of 1848 on the bottom lands along Little and Big Cottonwood creeks, which still meet the Jordan River inside Murray. The Woodhill Brothers' smelter of 1869 started an industrial era, and the post office took the name of territorial governor Eli Murray in 1883.

Salt Lake County Animal Services. Cats, dogs and ferrets must be licensed by 5 months of age, or within 30 days of moving in or getting the pet, and the license is renewed every year.
How much is a pet license for a Murray resident?
$25 for a sterilized pet, $50 for an unsterilized pet and $10 for a sterilized pet owned by a senior 60 or older. A late license adds a $50 penalty.

Barking, dangerous and other animal complaints go to Salt Lake County Animal Control, whose officers are dispatched around the clock at 801-840-4000.
What does Murray code enforcement handle?
Property issues such as weeds, yard waste, inoperable or abandoned vehicles, snow removal and illegal dumping. Animal problems are sent to the county.

Yes. Every pet licensed through Salt Lake County Animal Services can get a free microchip at the shelter, 511 West 3900 South, during walk-in hours, Tuesday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
What happens if someone fakes a support animal in Murray?
Under Utah Code 26B-6-805 it is a class C misdemeanor to knowingly misrepresent an animal as a service or support animal, or to mislead a health care provider to get documentation.
