It makes minor technical and grammatical changes to Article XIII. Sections 1, 2, and 9 of the Utah Constitution and removes Section 4 which contains unnecessary and outdated language. The deleted section does not change current law regarding min- ing law in the state. The proposition (known as H.J.R. 8 during the 1996 legislative session) passed the I'lah Senate 26 to 0 and the House 70 to 0. will amend Proposition Article I, Section of the Utah Constitution establishing the number of jurors for different types of trials. The foundation explains that because of changes in the structure of the states court system over the past several years, the current article is outdated. ilf passed. Proposition 3 will 3 10 1 Davis County Clipper 996 change the Constitution so that the type of case, not the type of court, will determine the size of the jury. In capital cases, there will be 12 jurors. In other felony cases, there will be no fewer than eight jurors. In other cases misdemeanor, civil, etc ), there will be no fewer than four jurors, but the number will be established by the State Legislature. Proposition 3 (known as S.J.R. 7 during the 196 legislative session) and passed the Utah Senate 28 to the Utah House of Representatives 69 to 3. Proposition 4 amends four different articles in the Utah Constitution so that the states high credit rating can be used by Utahs 40 school districts in bonding for capital facilities. The Utah Foundation reports no school district has ever defaulted on a bond, but 39 school districts have bond ratings below the state's. As a result, the interest rale at which school districts borrow is higher than that at which the state can borrow'. By guaranteeing the district's bond rating through the state's credit. districts may take advantage of i lower rates than they otherwise could and save the districts millions of dollars in the future. The foundation points out there are strong measures in the Utah School Bond Guaranty Act that protects the state from hav ing to pay bonds. Proposition 4 (known as S.J.R. 6 during the 1996 legislative session) passed the Utah Senate 26 to 0 and the the Utah House 66 to 0. Proposition 5 amends X. Section 5 of the Article Utah Constitution which creates the State School Fund, a permanent trust fund. The principal of the fund is held in perpetuity: the interest goes toward funding public education. According to the foundation, the amendment will provide another source of rev enue. Any impact to the fund will depend on the size and frequency of donations. Preliminary estimates show there is SI 14.7 million now in the fund. In fiscal year 1996 the interest provided $1.9 million to the Uniform School Fund. Proposition 5 (known as H.J. R. 7 during the 1996 legislative ses- - continued from front Floyd D.

The proposed changes provide additional flexibility in state public finance and budgeting, and allows the governor and Legislature to allocate revenues without the restrictions now in place.
