County commission adopts resolution to file cross appeals for centrally assessed properties By Myrna Trauntvein Times-News Correspondentn Juab County adopted a reso- lution authorizing the filing of Cross Appeals for 2016 Cen- trally Assessed Properties. Commissioner Byron Wood- land made the motion to ap- prove the filings and authorize Commission Chairman Clin- ton Painter to sign the resolu- tion. Commissioner Rick Carl- ton seconded the motion. ‘’SB 165, passed during the 2015 General Session, changes the role of county government in the appeals process of cen- trally assessed property,” said Painter. Juab County has been at the mercy of centrally assessed property appeals which have, in the past, usually resulted in the awarding of a refund of taxes paid by the protester. That has meant that the com- mission has had to refund money to the tune of several thousands of dollars each time. Unfortunately, that money has already been collected and spent and commissioners have had to pay the refund from the current budget. “Utah Code now allows a county to object to an assess- ment and request a hearing with the Utah State Tax Com- mission, termed a cross appeal, within 30 days from when an owner of a centrally assessed property objects and requests an appeal,” said Woodland. Several companies have filed for appeals for the 2016 year that would affect Juab County : AT&T Communica- tions; AT&T Mobility LLC; Cellco Partnerships d/b/a/ Ve- rizon Wireless (pending liti- gation); T-Mobile US; Sprint Corporation; Citizens Tele- communications Company of Utah; Graymont Western US, Inc.; PacifiCorp Inc. and Inter- mountain Power Agency. All of the above appeals in- volve multiple counties but, in each case, one of those coun- ties is Juab. The differences in value re- quested and the appeal differ- ences are substantial. For example, just naming the top three on the telecom- munications list, AT&T Com- munications has a value, by their estimate $96,200,000, a requested value of $25,400,000 for a difference of $70,800,000; AT&T Mobility LLC is val- ued by the company at $245,132,520 and a request- ed value of $61,572,520 for a difference of $183,560,520; Cellco Partnership d/b/a Ve- rizon Wireless (pending liti- gation) estimates their value at $553,480,660, a requested value of $110,317,000 for a dif- ference of $335,501,863. “The Utah Association of Counties sent a list of changes to the process as a result of the bill,” said Painter. “The tax is split up among the counties where the owner’s property is located,” said Carl- ton. Major changes, as a result of the Senate Bill, are that the Tax Commission may consult with a county in valuing cen- trally assessed property; coun- ties have 30 days after a prop- erty owner has filed an appeal of a Tax Commission assess- ment to apply to the commis- sion to apply to become a party to the hearing; counties can only initiate an appeal should they believe the assessment should be 50 percent greater than the Tax Commission’s as- sessed value. Prior to being party to a property owner’s appeal or initiating an appeal itself, the majority of a county’s legisla- tive body must first approve the action and during the 2018 interim, the legislature will re- view the process to determine if other changes are needed.
