These projects include construction of a storm sewer, a civic auditorium, purchase of voting machines, and building a county golf course. If they are approved, the mill levy will be increased. Auditor Jones also predicted that aside from the proposed projects there would probably be a levy tax decrease since there would probably be a surplus of $600,090 left over from the 1962 budget. The surplus is a result of Joseph Ficding Smith unused departmental $250,000 budget funds, with $350,000 coming from funds received in exHighland Drive cess of estimated revenues.

Over $7 Million Property Tax - Property tax Kennecott Utah Copper Copper Company's Division operations min'ng sharply increased from 1961s $6,975,535 to $7,608,725 lor 1962. The tax was paid last week to County Treasurer Charles O. oil Bonner. Mining properly assessments arc based in part on net proceeds from produet'on over the period of the three preceding years. Utah Copper Divisions large 1962 assessment is explained by the dropping of the year of 1958 and the adding of the higher proceeds of 1961 when evaluating the property value. Further explanation is given by the fact that the price of copper averaged more than 30 cents a pound in 1961. compared with less that 27 cents a pound during the 1958 tax year. Assessed valuation of company property in Salt Lake County jumped to a total of about $131 million ths year, compared with $117 million last year an increase of approximately $14 million, aecording to Division Comptroller O.
