Here is why 3rd Sub SB 97 is bad for Utah taxpayers:
- There is no reason for a property tax increase when the state currently has a $700 million budget surplus and education is receiving the majority of those funds.
- A $75 million statewide property tax increase burdens Utah families and businesses and slows economic growth by taking more money away from consumers and businesses that could be invested in the economy.
- A $75 million tax increase in not necessary to equalize school district funding.Funding can be equalized through other means such as appropriating growth in the education fund toward equalization.
