No. 64 of 2010
(Adopting the final rate of tax levy to be credited
to the Library Fund for fiscal year 2010-2011)
An ordinance adopting the final rate of tax levy to be credited to the Library Fund
for fiscal year 2010-2011.

PREAMBLE
Chapter 2, Title 59 of the Utah Code 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 provides for certain notice and
hearing requirements if the proposed tax rate exceeds the certified tax rate. In that event,
the proposed tax rate does not become final unless approved by resolution of the City
Council following such notice and public hearing. 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.
