On 4 October 2020, during the 190th semiannual general conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans for the construction of the Lindon Utah Temple. The Lindon Utah Temple will be a three-story building of approximately 81,000 square feet.
The Lindon Utah Temple will be the twenty-fifth temple built in Utah and the seventh built in Utah County, following the Provo Utah Temple (1972), the Mount Timpanogos Utah Temple (1996), the Payson Utah Temple (2015), the Provo City Center Temple (2016), the Saratoga Springs Utah Temple (under construction), and the Orem Utah Temple (under construction).
