YARSROUGH- SYSTEMS ASSISTANT CHIEF EXAMINERS September 28, 1970 To: All County Commissioners, Auditors and City Clerks, Comptrollers, Finance or Budget Directors, and all State Examiners From: Adrian Webster, Chief Examiner, Division of Municipal Corporations Subject: Certifying Annual Tax Levies of Cities and Towns with Boards of County Commissioners Prior to the enactment of RCW 35.33.135, the entire budget of cities under 300,000 was certified and filed with the Clerk of the Board of County Commissioners, in accordance with the provisions of RCW 84.52.020. Each budget contained the amount of ad valorem taxes to be levied, if any. RCW 35.33.135, however, requires only that the ordinance fixing the amount of ad valorem taxes to be levied, be certi- fied by the Clerk to the Board of County Commissioners, thus raising the question of legislative intent. We are advised by the Attorney General's Office in their informal opinion dated September 23, 1970, "that the city need only certify 'the ordinance fixing the amount.of ad valorem taxes to be levied' to the Clerk of the Board of County Commissioners. " Therefore, all cities subject to RCW 35.33.135 will file only the ordinance fixing the tax levy whereas all other taxing dis- tricts subject to RCW 84.52.020 will continue to file their budgets as heretofore.
