Show Wednesday, May 15, 1985 Sun Advocate, Price, Utah 3A Taxes (Continued from Page 1A) increased costs. I dont know what we would do, he said. I collection, computation and disbursement of taxes. Jewkes said he is concerned because that definition is too vague to completely define what would and wouldnt be classified as a direct cost. He also said he was concerned because the new requirements would more than double what the district has been paying to the county for tax collection services. Previously the district paid about $122,000 per year to have the county collect its $6.1 million in taxes. Under the new requirements the districts share would jump to $298,925, an increase of around $175,000. Jewkes said he doesnt know how the district would pay the dont know where wed come up by the county in the assessment, v . with the money to pay the extra tax collection costs. Other entities would also see their collection bills rise. The charges would range from $112,141 charged to Carbon County down to $291 for City. mission, auditor, treasurer, recorder, assessor and Attorney. It also still covers part of the cost of the central mailing Sun-nysi- de County Clerk Norman Prichard said the reason for the big change is that before the county was only able to bill salaries, wages and fringe benefits of the treasurers and assessors offices. The cost of the tax forms and postage was also collected. The new bill allows charges for data processing, portions of the cost of the operation of the offices of the county com- . operation. The total bill for a full years collection comes to $496,598. And Prichard said the county really has a limited number of options in the matter. The law specifically directs that the budget be prepared, he said. Its not a matter for negotiation. However the law does give the commission two options for collecting the fees. The first is to bill them outright, with each an entity paying amount proportionate to the amount of money the county collects for it. The second is to levy a special property tax mill levy sufficient to pay the costs. However the Helper development (Continued from Page 1A) the redevelopment district. He said that one project city officials are interested in is buying land near Poplar Street and 1st West which has a rundown appearance. The property could be used for construction of elderly, low cost housing by the Carbon County Housing Authority if the need develops, he said. City officials are attempting to meet the needs of elderly, residing in their own homes pool and, if that fails, finding what can be done as a legal remedy. in K. City attorney Bryce Bryner, who also attended the meeting, said that there is an implied warranty in effect when products are sold that they will be fit for the purposes for which they are intended.' Mayor Olsen said that the city does not want to operate the pool without conforming to health department regulations because of the possibility of the city incurring greater liability, although it is not clear whether a light color enhances safety factors. , John Bene, Helper City engineer, - who attended the meeting said that he will talk further with Woodward. Woodward has indicated that he would like further discussions. David Cox, aquatics director for Carbon County recreation, said the pool seems to be in good condition, except for the color problem, and the recreation department would' like to operate it with extended hours. . right now through encouraging the outreach efforts of the RSVP program. City Councilman Jack Ori recommended that the citys fee schedule for collecting garbage be simplfied from the 13 different rates that have been in effect. The garbage collection charge agreed upon by councilmen was $4 per month per residence and three different charges for law says ...that levy shall not exceed 110 percent of the mill levy should be established. He said the group agreed if the commission voted to bill the taxing entities directly for the previous years rate or a maximum of 2.5 mills. The only exceptions are for reappraisal programs approved required to meet legislative, judicial or administrative orders and the cost of acquiring and installing electronic equipment and support systems. If the county adopts the mill levy, the law also requires each taxing entity to reduce its property tax levy by an amount equal to that billed to that entity by the county in the previous year for the cost of collecting taxes. Prichard said a meeting was held with representatives from the various taxing entities Monday to get input on whether the costs should be billed or a bat against How many times have you said "I wish we had a picture of that!

A resolution putting the new schedule into effect will be prepared by the city attorney for action at the next meeting. Weve always had a good working relationship with the (school) district and the other entities in the county. Thats not going to be ruined. Well work this out, Prichard said. Jewkes agreed in a later in- costs, that increased costs would not go into effect for the billing to be sent out in June. Both Prichard and Jewkes said while the new billing procedure is causing concern, it will not alter what both called a good working relationship between the entities in the tax commission, actions by the county.

In an attempt to solve the problem of property owners in ' Spring Canyon Estates who . have complained of excessive dust and noise resulting from heavy traffic of small recreational vehicles near their homes, the city council passed a no trespassing ordinance. The ordinance prohibits the driving of recreational vehicles on private property which has no been posted with signs unless trespassing written permission of the property owner has been ob--5 tained. Councilman Matsuda said that councilmen hope the or--; dinance, which will apply to the entire city, will give property . owners relief while not unduly inhibiting recreation seekers. There is a great deal of land not in private ownership. The solution is also less costly than installing a fence around the area immediately back of the Spring Canyon Estates. Fencing was one of the solutions proposed by the property owners. The ordninance provides for a fine of not more than $299 and a jail sentence of not more than six months for those who violate the ordinance. Councilman Gordon Newbold said that perhaps the suggestion of having the Department of Wildlifeof Resources reseed the mound dirt back of the Spring Canyon Estates homes could be pursued to improve the aesthetics of the i area. a to hold Councilmen decided 7 public hearing May 23 at p.m. received funds by Helper on how under the citys redevelopment program should be used.
