Moeham, R-Salt Lake, "Watchdog1 chairman, said the decision decis-ion will be appealed t0 the State Supreme Court ' A proposed cooperative KxHinty-stale program for valuing iproporty for tax purposes is being drafted by the legislative Council Taxation Committee headed head-ed by Sen. Kendrick Ilar-waixi, Ilar-waixi, R-Richfield. Oregon Plan nds would follow pro-kxHiures pro-kxHiures devoloprd during the past 10 years in Ore gon where that state and its counties are working together harmoniously on property tax valuations. I'tah's Tax Commission now is engaged in a legal battle with the Utah Co. Commission as t0 whether the state or the county has the final say in valuing valu-ing land for tax purpose. Under this plan the Tax Commission, county assessors as-sessors and county commissions com-missions would agree upon a three-way contract for employing experts to revalue re-value lands and improvements- One proposed feature which would be borrowed from Oregon would be a limitation to prevent automatic auto-matic increases in taxes accompanying valuation increases. Automatic Raises Too often the old tax levies have been imposed upon valuations increased fby blanket adjustments, netting abrupt tax increases. The Oregon plan limits actual tax increases to six per cent above those of any year in the past three years. L'tah voters in November Novem-ber 1958 will vote upon two proposed constitutional constitution-al amendments on tax matters. One would abolish abol-ish the inventory tax on (merchandise. The other would permit valuing ag-Irdcultrual ag-Irdcultrual lands at their value for farm (purposes rather than their market value. Observers expect farmers farm-ers and merchants to a united front to enact (both amendments. |
