Kearns grew out of Camp Kearns, the World War II Army Air Forces base built here in 1942 — at its peak it held 40,000 troops and briefly ranked as Utah's third-largest city — and the township's compact postwar street grid, now served by Rocky Mountain Power, still follows the base's original layout.
