editThe intent to construct the temple was announced by church president Russell M. Nelson on October 7, 2018.[6][7] The Feather River California Temple was announced concurrently with 11 other temples.[8] At the time, the number of operating or announced temples was 201.
On July 18, 2020, a groundbreaking to signify beginning of construction was held, with Paul H. Watkins, an area seventy, presiding.[9] Plans called for a two-story, single-spired, 38,000 square foot temple. The temple is built on a nine-acre site that formerly had a church meetinghouse.[10]
The temple was dedicated on October 8, 2023 by Ulisses Soares.[11]
