in one month TAX BREAK lovis County Lowers Mill Levy on Property Taxes By CAROL SISCO Standard-Examin- er Staff FARMINGTON — No one looks forward to paying property taxes so the news for Davis County residents is welcome: they will receive a slight break this year because the county has lowered its mill levy by 17 mills But the decrease could be on paper only because it may be offset by expected increases in school and city taxes The Davis County Commission has set the mill levy at 1525 down from 1695 last year Residents in unincorporated areas will pay an additional 450 mills for fire protection up from 345 last year Assessed value has climbed from about $35 million last year to $37 million this year The assessed r value isn’t a “true picture” according to Commission Chairman Glen WFlint because abatements have not been lifted from the figures presented Flint said at least $10 to $12 million will be removed in tax abatements authorized by the Davis County Board of Equalization but Assessor Thayne Corbridge disagrees Corbridge said only $200000 in abatements have been au- thorized this year Annual abatements were figured into the figure presented to commissioners Using the state assessment forn mula Corbridge and Auditor Gibbons explained exactly what the mill levy will mean to Lu-dee- taxpayers The owner of a $50000 home in an unincorporated area would pay ab out $118 in taxes this year compared to $122 last year Davis County homes aren’t valued at true marketreally value presently because they are still on 1975 levels of assessment — the last time the State Tax Commission assessed the area A home worth $50000 today is probably only assessed at about $30000 based on 1975 levels Corbridge said His tax figure was based on a $50000 home assessed at $30000 The owner of a similarly valued home in an incorporated area would pay about $91 this year Corbridge said Commissioner Ernest Eberhard was extremely pleased with the new mill levy as he related it to other counties which have raised their levies this year “You won’t find many along the Wasatch Front that are lower” he noted “The county has done remarkably well in all capital improve-ment- s and investments” Eberhard added “They’re all paid for” including the new jail which he described as “as fine a facility as we have in the state” By law the general fund levy can reach 16 mills but it’s still at 905 mills in Davis County Flint said Each mill generates approximately $372000 for the county The special service district levy for fire protection was increased from 345 to 450 Eberhard said because many areas have been annexed to cities providing less re- venue even though the same " amount of fire equipment is needed Commissioners dropped the two-micourthouse construction fund levy this year but added 30 mills for library construction All other levies remained the same as last year They include 190 mills for the library 2 mills for flood control and 2 mills for jail construction “I feel we’ve done a great job as far as economy goes” Flint said as he presented the proposed mill levy It was adopted on a motion by Commissioner Morris F Swapp seconded by Eberhard Homeowners who wish to obtain a rough projection of taxes owed need to take 20 percent of the assessed value and multiply it by of the mill rate ll ' t one-thousand- th |
