SALT LAKE CITY ORDINANCE
No. 53 of 2004
(Adopting an amended rate of tax levy for the
Special Library Fund for fiscal year 2004-2005)
AN ORDINANCE ADOPTING AN AMENDED RATE OF TAX LEVY FOR
THE SPECIAL LIBRARY FUND FOR FISCAL YEAR 2004-2005.
Be it ordained by the City Council of Salt Lake City:
PREAMBLE
Chapter 2, Title 59 of the Utah Code Ann. states that the governing body of each
city shall,by ordinance or resolution, adopt a proposed tax levy or, if the tax rate is not
more than the certified tax rate, a final tax levy on the real and personal property for
various municipal purposes. Chapter 2, Title 59, of the Utah Code Ann. provides for
certain notice and hearing requirements if the proposed tax rate exceeds the certified tax
rate. It is the intent of Salt Lake City to comply with the mandate of the Utah Legislature,
but reserve in itself the power to amend the tax rates set herein to guarantee, after final
appraisal figures have been determined, that it does not exceed the amount required for its
governmental operations and taxing authority granted by the Legislature. Further, it is the
intent of the City to levy an additional tax, if necessary, to cover costs of State legislative
mandates or judicial or administrative orders under Chapter 2, Title 59 of the Utah Code
Ann.
On June 17, 2004, the City adopted Ordinance No. 46 of 2004,by which it
adopted the rate of tax levy for fiscal year 2004-2005,which included a rate of tax levy
for the Special Library Fund. Due to a mistake in the information provided by the Utah
State Tax Commission, the rate of tax levy previously adopted was in error. Accordingly,
the City now wishes to adopt an amended rate of tax levy for the Special Library Fund for
fiscal year 2004-2005.
SECTION 1. PURPOSE. The purpose of this ordinance is to adopt an amended
tax levy for the Special Library Fund for fiscal year 2004-2005.

real and personal property within Salt Lake City made taxable by law in the year 2004, for
the fiscal year of Salt Lake City ending June 30, 2005, a tax of .000887 on each
dollar of taxable valuation of said property which shall be credited as revenue in the
special library fund;
Said tax levy shall be subject to Mayor approval and City Council reconsideration
pursuant to § 10-3-1214 of the Utah Code Ann.
SECTION 3. CERTIFIED TAX RATE. The proposed tax levies do not exceed
the certified tax rates and, therefore, the City is not required to publish notice or hold a
public hearing pursuant to Chapter 2, Title 59, of the Utah Code Ann.
SECTION 4. CERTIFIED TO AUDITOR. The tax levy hereinabove determined
and levied shall be certified by the City Recorder to the Auditor of Salt Lake County,
