HB 565 Utah House · 2026 General Session

City Library Property Tax Amendments

HB 565 requires counties in Utah to separately list city library taxes on property tax notices sent to owners of real property in first-class counties. This change affects property owners who pay city library taxes, ensuring these levies are clearly itemized alongside other taxes. The bill amends existing property tax notice requirements (Utah Code 59-2-919.1) to mandate this separate listing in the "itemized tax information" section of notices. It does not create new taxes or appropriates funds, but updates how current library levies are presented to taxpayers.
