Conclusions
The City has reduced costs to balance operating budget, but does not have long term funding for Streets Capital Plan, consisting of:
31 Projects across the community
Maintenance of existing street to prolong life and save money
Replacement of dead streets in connection with other utilities (Water, Storm Drain…)
The Plan is underfunded by $8.1 million
The proposed property tax increase averages about $10 month for a $200,000 home

Conclusions This increase in property taxes will allow for the proper maintenance of City streets on a pay as you go basis.
Maintaining the streets properly will save $6.9 million per streets life cycle.

What about Sales Tax?
West Bountiful receives approximately $1.56M per year in Sales Tax Revenue
Of this revenue, $458,000 is committed to outside agencies by Sales Tax Sharing Agreements:
Bountiful City – 14% (Commons) to 35% (Gateway)
Term of agreement is 50 years Developer – 43% (Commons)
Term of agreement is 10 years
![Page 16: Public Hearing August 11, 2011 7:00 pm. On May 3, 2011, the West Bountiful City Council adopted a balanced tentative budget maintaining current service.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022072113/56649edc5503460f94bed2f1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
If you were to buy a computer from Costco for $1,000, your final payment would be $1,066.00 including sales tax.
The sales tax would be distributed as follows: State of Utah $ 47.00 Davis County $ 8.00 Shared based on population $ 5.00 Shared by interlocal agreement $ 2.85 West Bountiful City $ 2.15 Rap Tax $ 1.00

Proactive maintenance for Streets will save millions of future dollars. Option #1 60 years no maintenance

Four slurry seals Two overlays No rebuild until end of 60 years $2.35 to $2.75 per square
foot
For ½ mile of street 29’ times 2,640’ = 76,560 Sq. Feet Option #1 Cost is $382,800 Option # 2 Cost is $$210,540 Savings of $172,260 per half mile of street
The City currently has just over 20 miles of streets Total savings from Option #2 is $6,890,400 per
rebuild cycle
