Utahns already bear the nation’s 4th highest burden when state/local fees are included. In recent years, school districts have been regularly increasing property taxes.
The Utah Taxpayers Association urges concerned taxpayers to attend their local Truth-in-Taxation hearings and let their voices be heard.
Please make copies and distribute them to other voters in the district.
