History

Founders

Herriman was established in 1849 by Robert Dansie, Henry Harriman, and Thomas Jefferson Butterfield. A monument located in the Herriman City Cemetery lists the original four families of Herriman as the Thomas Jefferson Butterfield, John Jay Stocking, Robert Cowan Petty, and Henry Harriman families.

Land developers

Rosecrest is a land developer who acquired some rights in a large area around Herriman, and started large scale residential development. Rosecrest is owned by parent company Sorenson Companies founded by the late James LeVoy Sorenson and currently managed by his son. In 2007, Rosecrest won a lawsuit with partner land owners/developers that likely will allow about 4,000 acres (16 km2) to be annexed out of neighbor city Bluffdale into Herriman to further expand the Rosecrest/Herriman housing projects. The lawsuit stemmed from a struggle between Bluffdale city officials, strict city building requirements, and Rosecrest.

Camp Williams Fire 2010

On September 19, 2010, the National Guard was performing an exercise at Camp Williams, south of Herriman, when a round likely struck a rock, setting off a 3,500 acres (14 km2) wildfire. Unified Fire Authority members mobilized and were able to arrest the progress of the fire, but not before 3 homes were destroyed and another damaged. Various small structures were also affected. Over 1,200 homes were evacuated in the face of the oncoming danger, with most of them able to return by Tuesday, September 21, 2010.
