This proposed hike would apply only to the city’s portion of the bill.“Every four-ish years or so, we find ourselves, on average, in some sort of situation which leads us to come back and ask for a property tax increase,” City Manager Wayne Pyle said. “And we’re in that position again.
Police officers are budgeted for raises of about 5% to 7%, depending on the offices’ careers, in the city’s proposed spending plan.. “I think the officers have been behind in the pay scale for quite a while. And I’m glad we can move that up for them because they do a great job for our city.” With gas prices soaring, it also costs more for police cars to patrol neighborhoods and crews to mow park lawns.So far, Utah’s second most-populous city has covered the rising costs through the additional property and sales taxes new or expanding businesses bring when they locate within its borders, Pyle said, but that revenue isn’t keeping up.
