 There is hereby levied and there shall be paid a use tax in the amount stated in Section 4-3-120 of this Article, upon the following:

 1. Construction and building materials. All sales of construction and building materials, except for sales of construction and building materials to contractors and subcontractors for use in the building, erection, alteration or repair of structures, highways, roads, streets and other public works owned and used by:

 2. The United States government, the State, its departments and institutions, and the political subdivisions thereof in their governmental capacities only;

 4. Schools, other than schools held or conducted for private or corporate profit.

 5. Construction equipment. Construction equipment which is located within the boundaries of the Town for a period of more than thirty (30) consecutive days shall be subjected to the full applicable use tax of the Town.

 (3) Construction equipment which is located within the boundaries of the Town for a period of thirty consecutive days or less shall be subjected to Town use tax in an amount which does not exceed the amount calculated as follows: The purchase price of the equipment shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is twelve, and the result shall be multiplied by the Town use tax rate. Where the provisions of this subsection (3) are utilized, the credit provisions of subsection (6) of this Section shall apply at such time as the aggregate sales and use taxes legally imposed by and paid to other statutory and home rule cities, towns, and cities and counties on any such equipment equal the full use tax of the Town.

 (4) In order for a taxpayer to avail itself of the provisions of subsection (3) of this Section, the taxpayer shall comply with the following procedure:

 (a) Prior to or on the date the equipment is located within the boundaries of the Town, the taxpayer shall file with the Town an equipment declaration on a form provided by Town. Such declaration shall state the dates on which the taxpayer anticipates the equipment will be located within and removed from the boundaries of the Town, shall include a description of each such anticipated piece of equipment, shall state the actual or anticipated purchase price of each such anticipated piece of equipment, and shall include such other information as reasonably deemed necessary by the Town.

 (b) The taxpayer shall file with the Town an amended equipment declaration reflecting any changes in the information contained in any previous equipment declaration no less than once every ninety days after the equipment is brought into the boundaries of Town or, for equipment which is brought into the boundaries of the Town for a project of less than ninety days’ duration, no later than ten days after substantial completion of the project.

 (c) The taxpayer need not report on any equipment declaration any equipment for which the purchase price was under two thousand five hundred dollars. If such equipment declaration is given, then as to any item of construction equipment for which the customary purchase price is under two thousand five hundred dollars which was brought into the boundaries of the Town temporarily for use on a construction project, it shall be presumed that the item was purchased in a jurisdiction having a local sales or use tax as high as that of the Town and that such sales or use tax was previously paid. In such case the burden of proof in any proceeding before the Town, the Executive Director of the Colorado Department of Revenue, or the district court, shall be on the Town to prove such local sales or use tax was not paid.

 (5) If the taxpayer fails to comply with the provisions of subsection (4) of this Section, the taxpayer may not avail himself of the provisions of subsection (3) of this section. However, substantial compliance with the provisions of subsection (4) of this section shall allow the taxpayer to avail himself of the provisions of subsection (3) of this section.

 (6) No Town use tax shall apply to the storage, use, or consumption of any article of tangible personal property the sale or use of which has already been subjected to a sales or use tax of another statutory or home rule city, town, or city and county legally imposed on the purchaser or user equal to or in excess of that imposed by the Town. A credit shall be granted against Town use tax with respect to the person's storage, use, or consumption in the Town of tangible personal property, the amount of the credit to equal the tax paid by the taxpayer by reason of the imposition of a sales or use tax of the previous statutory or home rule city, town, or city and county on the taxpayer’s purchase or use of the property. The amount of the credit shall not exceed the tax imposed by the Town.

 Section 5. All funds derived from the that portion of the Community Recreation Center Expansion Fund as allocated in former Section 4-2-20 (9)a.1 of the Windsor Municipal Code, to the extent such funds exceed the amount necessary to fully retire the debt service requirements for revenue bonds issued for the construction and equipping of the Community Recreation Center Expansion, shall be reserved exclusively for the payment of capital costs associated with the Community Recreation Center.
