Show 4— The Herald Journal Logan Utah Friday June 29 1984 Diapers fuel SALT LAKE CITY (UPI) — Political and bnaineas leaden an debating when — and if — huge tan breaks should be granted to draw business to Utah The debate has been spawned more by diapen than anything else Kimberly-Clar- k Corp the Wisconsin-base- d paper product maker plans to build a $100 million factory for disposable diapen in Weber County The manufacturer has told state officials it will employ more than its planned 250 worken if the state gives the firm a sales tax break on the millions of dollan in new equipment to be purchased Lawmakers last January dabbled in tax exemptions when they waived sales taxes on materials equipment and services used to build expand or modernize mining facilities They also waived the sales taxes on parts and equipment installed on commercial aircraft The first exemption was aimed at a planned $400 million expansion of Bingham mine and the second was designed to encourage Western Airlines to move its operations hub to Salt Lake City Since then officials and public lawmakers have debated the Ken-necott- case-by-ca- se ’s debate tax-brea- k of record “Following that theory we should eliminate all taxes and then every business in the United States would come to Utah wouldn’t they?’’ quipped Jack Olson executive vice resident of the Utah Taxa business-sectpayers’ Association lobby He disagreed with the exemption e the tradeoffs against the long- practice “If we keep sales tax exemptions down term revenue gains The issue is a major me for cities which to a minimum we can keep the sales tax receive a slice of the sales taxes generated low for everyone’’ he said “It goes back within their boundaries Those revenues to the principle of everybody paying their are especially coveted since the fair share You keep the sales tax base as Legislature limited local property tax broad as you can keeping rates low and collections to six percent over the previous attract business that way’’ inAs proposed the Kimberly-Clar- k year’s revenues "There were those who saw it as a very ducement would cost Utah’s tax base up to viable economic development tool and $4 million a year said Brigham Young those who asked ’Where do you stop?’’’ professor Richard Oveson hired by the said Herschel Hester executive director of diaper firm to analyze the revenue imthe Utah League of Cities and TOwns pacts of the exemption His study shows that $4 million loss Members of the league have "very mixed feelings’’ over the Kennecott bill would be offset by a $54 million in piddle and a committee on revenue and taxation revenues from construction and the plant's plans to draft a policy on the question in first year of operation That figure includes taxes withheld from time for the group’s September convenworkers’ incomes and sales taxes paid for tion he said Proponents claim that with other tax their personal purchases as well as sources the tax base is flexible enough to corporate franchise and property taxes allow the sales tax breaks to work paid by the plant approach to tax breaks When Kimberly-Clar- k earlier this year
