This was reported by the Utah Foundation, the private tax research organization in Its analysis of the impact of the tax Initiatives on state and local governments In Utah. According to the Foundation study, the reductions In Beaver County would impact the county government by $77,816, local schools by $211,287; cities and towns by $13,070 and special taxing districts by $9,663 In addition, If the initiatives are approved, state aid fur local road purposes in Beaver County would be cut by $184,939 and state aid for local schools would be reduced by an Indeterminate amount. Based on the best information available at this time, total state and local tax revenues In Utah would be reduced by $329.7 million If all three of the tax Initiatives are approved by the voters in November. This includes a reduction of $189.9 tr million in local property taxes Initiative A, t reduction of un-d- The annual General Womens meeting of the LDS Church will be held on Saturday, September 24, 1988 in the Salt Lake Tabernacle.

Foundation analysts point out, however, that Utah's economy appears to be growing again after three years of stagnation. As a result, the reductions that would occur If the tax Initiatives are approved might be partially offset by this growth in the tax base and in the tax revenues. Supporters also claim that passage of the initiatives might stimulate the economy further. The total reduction in the property tax, on the other hand, might be greater than the amount currently estimate, because actual property values In Utah have declined during recent years and, in some cases, are below those Indicated on the property valuation notices. If these discrepancies are corrected. It would result In reduced . property tax collections and create an additional revenue loss. The foundation report indicates that state general fund revenue (which Is used to finance higher education, social services, corrections, health, general operations, the judiciary, natural resources, community and economic development, bus- iness, labor and agriculture, capital outlay, debt service, etc. would be reduced by $70.1 million under Initiative B. This Is equal to 9.5 of the 1988-8- 9 general fund appropriations. Revenues to the public schools would be cut by approximately $123.3 million If all three of the Initiatives are approved. This includes $89.8 million in local school property taxes and $33.5 million in uniform school fund revenue. This sum is equal to about 13 of the total operating expenditures of local school districts in Utah. Utah's highway program would be most adversely affected by the proposed Initiatives, according to the Foundation report. If the tax on motor fuel and diesel fuel is reduced by five cents per gallon, revenues to the transportation fund would be slashed by $41,295,000, reor 21.3 of total highway-usvenue. In addition to funding the state highway program and providing state aid for local roads, highway-user revenues are used to finance the state highway patrol and certain administrative and general overhead costs. er last year to date ADULT SHOP CLASS The Milford Community Schools Shop Class will begin Thursday, September 22, 1988 at 7:30 p.m. The registration fee is $20.00.

Effective February 1, a new law established user fees for IRS rulings, determination letters, and similar requests. The fee set for determining the taxability of pensions and annuities is $50. Generally, the ruling must be requested before the due date, Including extensions, of the tax return for the user the annuity began. Most taxpayers may avoid the fee by using the guidelines and worksheets in the free IRS Publication 575, "Pension and Annuity Income," to determine the taxability of their pensions or annuities. However, those who prefer not to complete the worksheets may request rulings on the tax treatments of their annuities from the IRS, sending a check or money order for the $50 fee with their request. For further information on the tax treatment of pensions and annuities, plus information on how and where to apply for a ruling determining the tax treatment of pensions or annuities, call the IRS toll-frnumber, FORM (3676), for a free copy of Publication 575. ee pilfordCitii Tax Rate -- Milford LDS Church.
