Frodonia nows happenings UTAH TAXPAYERS ASSOCIATION 207 KEARNS BUILDING Three weeks after the I eglslature adjourned many taxpayers are still wondering how the session measured up. What Is the box score? Did they do a good, lair or poor Job? Did the policians keep their promises? Were taxes really cut, or Just shifted, and finally, did the lawmakers increase or cut spending according to what the Governor had recommen- new PHONE taken up at Town Council meeting last week.

Jordan River Parkway Miscellaneous Total This shows the Legislature upped the Governors requests by $9.9 million. They appropriated $650 million against $640.1 recommended in the Governors Budget. Fiscal 1974 legislative appropriations are $84 million, or 15 over the $566 million estimated to spend in the current year, fiscal 1973. They did a fair Job cutting the budget pie.

School funds budget the Governor estimated he would vend next year with a surplus cushion of $9.3 million. $22 million is the Legislatures final figure for ending surpluses. - ..They hiked spending $10 million, but also liberalized estimated income and beginning balances. However, the $12 million plus in tax relief promised, but not legally authorized, is ln- eluded in the $22 million figure.

This $23 million, or 12 more than the $194.3 million estimated to be spent this year and $37 million or 21 over actual 1972 spending. The new formula will not equalize as it was argued it must to meet recent court rulings. It is complicated beyond description. It Increases property taxes. It is riddled with costly exceptions. It has been the Utah Taxpayers Association position that Utah should wait to change its formula until theSupremeCourt made a decision. This was not done. Now the Supreme Court has ruled that states are free to do as they please. Have $23 million tax dollars been wasted by this error. Poor marks here. LEGISLATIVE BOX SCORE. Even though we are disappointed with the new school formula, on balance we give the Legislature high marks. The tax cuts were across the board, they were well balanced and touched every major segment of Utahs wide based tax structure. The budget pie was cut fairly, they worked hard, used restraints in spending increases and passed back to taxpayers a fair amount in tax cuts.
