Utah HB0236 amends tax increase notification and public hearing requirements for certain taxing entities.

Utah HB0236 amends the notice and public hearing requirements for taxing entities proposing a property tax increase. It mandates that taxing entities make a preliminary statement in a public meeting about their consideration of a tax increase. The State Tax Commission cannot certify a taxing entity's proposed property tax increase if the entity fails to meet these requirements. The bill also requires taxing entities to provide detailed notice and hold public hearings before levying a tax rate that exceeds the certified tax rate.
