TOWN COUNCIL
MEETING
INFORMATION
TOWN OF MARANA
MEETING DATE: December 19, 2006
AGENDA ITEM:
1.6
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL
FROM: Erik Montague, Finance Director
AGENDA TITLE: Resolution No. 2006-210: Relating to Taxation; establishing the
2007 amendments to the tax code of the Town of Marana as a
public record and directing the Town Clerk to maintain three
copies on file
DISCUSSION
Arizona State law allows cities and towns to enact the provisions of a code or amendment to the
code without publishing the entire code (ARS 9-802). The law does require that three copies of
the code shall be filed in the office of the Town Clerk and made available for public use and
inspection.
This resolution will establish "The 2007 amendments to the tax code of the Town of Marana" as
a public record and direct the Town Clerk to maintain three copies on file. By adopting the
amendments by reference, it will save the Town from publishing the numerous pages of
amendments in the newspaper.
The League of Arizona Cities and Towns has forwarded the 2007 amendments to the Model
Cities Tax Code for the Town of Marana. The amendments are housekeeping items, that when
adopted, will bring the Tax Code into conformance with State Law, and clarify ambiguous
language.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council adopt a resolution declaring as a public record certain documents
filed with the Town Clerk and entitled "The 2007 Amendments to the Tax Code ofthe Town of
Marana".
SUGGESTED MOTION
I move to approve Resolution 2006-210.
