Midvale Quick Facts
Midvale Police Coverage

Officers book every arrest into the Salt Lake County Metro Jail. You can view the city site at midvalecity.org for news, public safety, and links to UPD.
UPD takes GRAMA requests for police reports and arrest logs. State law under Utah Code Title 63G Chapter 2 (GRAMA) sets the rules for what UPD can share and how fast. Most requests get a reply in ten business days.
The Midvale city site does not run its own inmate list. It points users to the county for jail data. That is the right path for most people seeking Midvale released inmates info. The city keeps justice court and police contact info, but the county handles the booking roster.
Where Midvale Arrestees Go
