“Each county assessor shall annually update property values
based on a systematic review of current market data. . . .”
“In addition, the county assessor shall complete a detailed review
of property characteristics for each property at least once every
five years.”
Utah Code Section 59-2-303.1(1)
There are two types of tax rates: (1) entity and (2) area. A group of entity rates
make up the area rate. The area rate becomes the final tax rate charged by
counties against the assessed value of a specific property. Just as households
spend money on various budget items, taxing entities frequently have more than
one budget. Tax rate increases have legal disclosure requirements called "truth-in-
taxation". Here you find information about entity budgets, entity tax rates, area tax
rates and truth-in-taxation.
Approved Budget Rates. The tax rate of each budget within the taxing entity.
Approved Tax Entity and Tax Area Rates. Rates approved by the State Tax
Commission.
Tax Areas and Nomenclature. The current tax entities and tax areas in PDF format.
Truth-in-Taxation. The process of properly advertising for a tax rate increase. Both
timing and size requirements are specified for counties, school districts, cities
and towns and special service districts. It is easy to find the requirements for your
entity.
