If East Layton voters are in favor of being annexed. Heaps said, the process will then be ; , one of disincorporation by East Layton followed by annexation into Layton. THE PROCESS has been erroneously described in the press as a "merger according to Heaps. "A merger occurs when both municipalities disincorporate and then form one municipality. The new city would then have new ordi-- : V nances and would elect new city officials." he said. That was the original plan irtwiir said Heaps.

THE EXPRESSED concern of some East Layton residents that they might be treated as second class citizens was rediculous" by Heaps. "In fact there are certain areas such as a couple of their roads, that will probably receive higher priority than termed ours. he said. At one time the entire geographical area was known as Layton, according to Councilman Golden Sill. Water problems during the I930s caused the area east of Layton to seek' incorporation in order to receive federal assistance. ANOTHER AREA, north of Gordan and west of Kays Creek, also seeking federal and became Laytona. "During the 50s, Laytona requested annexation back into Layton, according to Sill. Ive lived in Layton all my life, said Sill, who reportedly would like to see East Layton annexed. "I firmly believe it would be best for the entire area if it was once again tinued. Layton." IF THEY arent annexed, beleives, East Laytons only alternative is to set the mill levy higher in order to give them the services they need. Sill The feeling among Layton officials seems to be expressed by City Planner Scott Carter, who said, Its harder to work around them than with them." r'tf IU UStftftf v tf W 4 fi tm r sm u.4, pirHMrliu Mr, t4 IV h!i4 13 (.tllKI.I M Kvmu u- Q Kftn!it 0 ti t4 II if- - Tkc FUmeoiiry itlsoul Nbcffcctd 1 4) f3 tu - nation lo briJgc reconstruction to applicaiionx for flood control.

Everyone must eat but because the amount one eats doesnt increase on a proportionate scale (necessarily) with the available income, that means those with lower incomes generally spend a higher proportion of their paychecks for food. But since everyone currently pays five percent sales tax for food, at least in Davis and Salt Lake counties, and 4 percent where the UTA doesn't operate, that makes for discrimination. And no matter what the income, I think its unfair to have to pay a tax to eat which is necessary to live. ', DAVIS residents agreed d schools voted leeway or not1, what relatively little it could add to the budget would be more than eaten up in losses due to sales tax removal. No, sales taxes from food dont contribute directly to school funds. But some of that is accrued in the general state fund that is turned over to the schools..

THE SHERIFF also has tips for the adults who will be seeing all manner of goblins, ghouls, and beasties at their doors. 1. Leave porch and driveway lights on. 2. DO NOT place containing candles near the route the children must travel. J. Do not gi'e money to children. Most of them have been warned not to actert money from strangers. They should not b tempted by this exception to that basic rule. 4. HAND OIT factory packaged treats. "It is unfortunate that we base to suggest some of these practices. comments the Sheriff. "We do not do so to diminish in any way children' enjoyment of the holiday. We feel obligated to assume a very protective stance, however, since each year around the country there appear to be more incidents of either accidental or premeditated injury to youngsters we do not want that to happen here." SHERIFFS officers will be especially vigilant during the Halloween celebration. They encourage anyone who sees suspicious activity to call them immediately.

And while Only a portion' of that would go for schools, especially in Davis County, with ten percent of the states population the county would feel a loss of a fair share of that total. That amount could be pegged at up to $1.6 million if you figure 10 percent of the $16 million in general funds being transferred to education currently. Thats as much as was cut from the Davis Districts programs last year. School officials have said theyd be hardpressed to trjm that much more from their program. as the tax limitation proposal, for lower taxes as much as anybody. But again, under the existing shortage in state funds I feel such a move could be disastrous for state financing. States and local governments includare not allowed to run ing school boards huge deficits or debt ceilings akin to the federal government. The state might have had a surplus now if the Legislature had not approved tax rebates. AS FAR Im AND THERE might be more money in local coffers in cities and counties if the economy had not taken such a slump, lowering the sales tax receipts brought on by less buying and selling. Again looking at the schools, the tax limitation could mean a drop of $60 million for schools. UNDER THE proposal, a one percent tax ceiling based on 1977 values would be set. That would mean those counties where real estate values were reassessed bfore 1977 would be valued at a lower tax rate than other counties reassessed later. On top of that, a home would be reassessed at the time of its sale. That could mean youd pay one tax for an identical home for which a neighbor might have to pay more because it was recently, sold. Now that doesnt sound too fair, now does it? ISNT IT hard enough for a lot of people to finance a home much less add this burden? Besides, at least one state official claims the whole issue would probably be declared unconstitutional. Based on Californias infamous Proposition 13, the property tax difference between neighbors (who might own identical homes) would be unconstitutional here. And because railroads and other large businesses are reassessed every year the business tax would probably have to be lowered while the property tax would have to increase to keep the coffers sufficiently full. BESIDES, Utah taxes are a lot lower than Californias were at the time of Proposition 13. Utahs stand at about one percent of home value vs. 2.5 percent for California at that time. They registered a $7 billion surplus at the time and Utahs governments claim they dont have any fat to draw on. Let's build a little surplus in first and then make an attempt at lowering taxes. But maybe the best place to start is on a federal level. This same state official says 70 percent of taxes come from the Big Brother in Washington. t |
