DAVIS NEWS JOURNAL, NORTH DAVIS LEADER, AUGUST 5, 1982 Come Get Your Old Pictures Clearfield RBA On Hold By TOM BUSCELBERG FARMINGTON - Taxing powers of redevelopment agencies in various county cities could impact the school district to the tune of more than $300,000 this year, the school board clerk says. -- REFLECTING ON a Utah Assoc, of Counties confab held recently where potential impacts of the various city agencies set up to generate funds for redevelopment projects were explored, Roger Glines said in excess of $300,000 in tax dollars could be lost to the school district. County Com. Harry Gerlach Sr. also expressed concerns for be county that depends almost totally on property taxes for its revenue. that would require school board authorization. Another options open to the district but Mr. Glines emphasizes hed rather not use it. a chance to get involved in RDA projects. Public hearing notices are mandated by law before blight areas and specific property can be listed for inclusion in the RDA while adoption, rejection, or modification in RDA or an election can be called requiring 51 percent majority for proposals to gain approval. Adoption of the plan, if its approved, must be made by ordinance followed by a 30 day chance to challenge blight designations or irregularities. If no challenges are made to RDAs in that time, they cant be touched, he explained. PROJECTS INCLUDED in RDA areas can see tax revenue jump from $100 to $750 a year, for example, but that extra amount goes to the RDA, not the county or other tax agencies, he explained. County Government isnt receiving the growth in taxes to pay for increased services. We have to increase the mill levy to all residents. Everyone pays more for RDA. RDA growth makes it hard on the county, that depends almost solely on property tax for basing its revenue and with larger cities creating RDAs and keeping some tax base, he added. "For every large city that goes, the smaller are taxed so the smaller (cities) go to RDA in Everyone is taxing everyone and has lead to a new bureaucratic layer of government--taxatiowithout representation. EVERYONE in the state indirectly pays for RDAs, he added, indicating for Salt Lake City's redevelopment agency along, every state resident pays $5.20 in taxes a year. Although the law does allow additional capital outlay (construction) funds to be levied and then transferred for maintenance and operation needs, he says. The law lets us do that but I like to be straightforward (as to w here funds are coming from). Up to 10 percent of maintenance and operation can come from capital outlay. I dont like to (intersperse) those funds. HE EMIHASIZED such means are to be used only in an emergency kind of situation and added, even then we look over it very carefully. Its his feeling, though, that RDAs are on the verge of exploding. Theres not enough d control for the public on RDAs. Theyve of lot a without people knowing. esce-late- WHILE MR. Glines said RDA funding bites out of taxes are not really out of hand currently, its going to grow to the point the district will have to levy additional mill levies to meet its needs. I don't have any quarrel with the RDA concept, he emphasized but added, our concern is how big (it will get) at the expense of the budgets for other agencies. We take enough flack for what we levy. THE LOSS of $300, or about of a mill, could mean the district will have to levy its third voted leeway mill although 000-plu- s, NOTING THAT maybe some modifications to the law are needed he said changes could get the RDA out into the open Mr. Glines said people are starting to debate but he emphasized, I dont think RDAs should be getting their funding just off somebody elses (tax dollars) without having their own mill levy.
