The creation of the Project Area will not result in additional property taxes and will not create any
additional eminent domain power for either the City or the Agency.
The purposes of the public hearing, as required by Utah Code Ann. §§ 17C-5-104(3)(e) and 17C-5-302(2)(e),
as amended, will be to: (1) allow public comment on the draft Project Area Plan and Project Area Budget for the
Project Area (respectively, the 'Project Area Plan' and 'Project Area Budget'); (2) allow public comment on the
Project Area Plan and the Project Area Budget and whether each should be revised, approved or rejected; and (3)

this notice. A legal description of the proposed Project Area may be obtained by contacting the Agency.
(2) Property tax revenue resulting from an increase in valuation of property within the Project Area will be paid
to the Agency for project area development rather than to the taxing entities to which the tax revenue would otherwise
have been paid if one or more taxing entities agree to share property tax revenue under an interlocal agreement and
the project area plan provides for the Agency to receive tax increment.
(3) The Agency has requested an estimated $36.2 million in property tax revenues that will be generated by
development within the Project Area to fund a portion of project costs within the Project Area. These property tax
revenues will be used for the following: mandatory housing allocation as required by statute, payment and
reimbursement of infrastructure costs, incentives to developers, Agency administrative expenses, and other
expenditures as authorized by law. These property taxes will be taxes levied by the following governmental entities,
and, assuming current tax rates, the taxes paid to the Agency for this project area from each taxing entity will be as
follows: Heber City - $3.1 million, Wasatch County - $6.7 million, Wasatch School District - $26.4 million, Wasatch
County Fire SSD - none; Wasatch County SSD - none; Central Utah Water Conservancy District - none. All of the
property taxes to be paid to the Agency for the development in the Project Area are taxes that will be generated only
if the Project Area is developed. All concerned citizens are invited to attend the project area budget hearing as noted
above. A copy of the Project Area Budget is available at the Agency offices as described below.
