an implied motion on a resolution approving property tax rates for provost city corporation for the fiscal year beginning july 1st 2026 and ending june 30th 2027 as we presented by justin harrison our council executive director good evening council and to all those listening here in person online um

Utah State Code requires that the governing board of each taxing entity in the state adopt a certified tax rate before June 22nd of each calendar year, if they're a fiscal year taxing entity. Since Provo City is not scheduled to adopt our FY27 budget until Tuesday, June 23rd, The council needs to adopt a property tax rate and so there is no proposed tax increase this year. The city will not be going through truth and taxation. However, the following tax rates that have been certified by the county and by the tax commission are what are being proposed to be adopted. So for the general operations tax rate for Provo City, 0.000510. For the bond payment portion of the property tax, 0.000675. And the library rate of 0.000400. Justin Cappos, That is all I have unless you have any questions happy to provide the dollar amount. Justin Cappos, That may be helpful if you're interested. Justin Cappos, But please let me know if you have any questions.

Okay, thank you justin. Any questions for justin. right this is something that's not in our control at all it's set by the county and we just acknowledge it um all right we'll call for a vote on the implied motion i also like to recognize that councillor travis hoban has joined us online any council discussion on this okay we'll do a vote on the implied motion councillor garrett yes councillor mckay yes councillor christiansen yes councillor whitlock yes councillor bogdan yes councillor hoban yes and councillor whipple yes so that passes 7-0 if there's no objection we'll now adjourn the progress of council by unanimous consent very short
