Kearns is a township and census-designated place (CDP) in Salt Lake County, Utah, United States. Named after Utah's U.S. Senator Thomas Kearns, it had a population of 33,659 at the 2000 Census. This was a small increase over the 1990 figure of 28,374 due to a small part of the territory incorporated into Taylorsville in 1996. A recently-elected community council is expected to call for a vote of incorporation in the near future, since Utah's current township law expires in 2010. If the law is not extended, it would either have to revert to its former status as an unincorporated area of the county, incorporate as a city, or be annexed into a nearby town.
