HUGE property tax increases are coming to your tax bill.
Weber County is proposing a 25% increase for 'mainly' Sheriff Department wages. This increase is over $8,000,000. Is it all for the Sheriff's Department?
The Clerk/Auditor stated $1.2 million is for capital improvements? Where? Rural Weber County maybe? If so, why are us Cities paying for their infrastructure?
In regards to the increase. We should only be paying for an increase in the Courts and Jail for the Sheriff's department, not the part for law enforcement in the field, we have our Police Department, and those Cities who contract with the Sheriffs department for law enforcement should be paying the increase (on their contracts), not us. We have a contract for CSI and SWAT, which should an increase as well.
The meeting is this Monday (August 15th. at 6 PM.) I hope you can attend.
North View Fire Department is also increase our property tax within the City.
I do not have all the details at the moment, I will provide more once I have them.
Their meeting is this Tuesday (August 16th. at 6 PM.) Your week is already getting busy!
See you there!
Mayor Toby Mileski
