OUR VIEW No repeat Property tax hikes were the top news story of 2018 and that’s a story we don’t want to see again A look back at all of the news, sports, features and photographs we pub- lished during the course of a year is a task we enjoy every late December in the Transcript Bulletin’s newsroom. A good part of last Thursday’s edition was dedicated to that look back with our Top 10 Stories of 2018. The top four stories of the year were published on the front page. Property tax hikes were the top pick, followed by the contro- versy of high-density housing, voters electing to change Tooele County’s form of government, and the Middle Canyon wildfire. The other six stories published in order of importance included the county’s opioid crisis, deepening drought, transportation projects, general election voter turnout, the sale of Utah Motorsports Campus, and Grantsville’s new Justice Center. If you read our top story of the year about taxes, you might have been pain- fully, angrily or depressingly reminded as to why your wallet or purse is either slightly — or significantly — lighter these days. And those feelings perhaps explain why we chose property tax hikes as the #1 story of the year. The story reads like an anthology of tax increases that occurred across the county in 2018, beginning with the biggest: Tooele City’s initially proposed 115-percent property tax increase. New Tooele Mayor Debbie Winn announced in February the City needed more tax revenue to build a new public safety building for the police depart- ment, to increase police officers’ pay for job retention, and to provide a boost to the City’s budget for a variety of needs. GUEST OPINION Winn and the City Council hosted a series of town hall meetings and public hearings to explain the city’s budget needs and to hear what citizens thought about it. By the time a Truth in Taxation hearing was held in August, the tax increase was lowered to 82 percent. Yet the hit to the pocketbook remained significant. The owner of a residen- We now face another certain tial property valued at $200,000 paid $367 in city property tax last November versus $201 in 2017. The hit was even bigger for the owner of a commercial property valued at $200,000. They paid $667 last November versus $336 in 2017. stressful economic precipice The other tax hikes imposed in 2018 include a 2.2-percent Tooele County general/Tooele County Health Department property tax increase, an increased mill levy for the Tooele County School District to help raise teacher and sup- was in Bill Clinton’s Cabinet when The problem isn’t that Americans port staff pay, a 38-percent property tax increase in Stockton, a 23.4-percent Newt Gingrich pulled the plug are living beyond their means.
