  '  { +  SECTION 1. + }  { + The Legislative Assembly finds and
declares that:
  ' (1) The successful solicitation of gifts, grants and
donations for the benefit of the Oregon State Fair and Exposition
Center allows the operation, improvement and maintenance of
facilities or programs enjoyed by the public. The receipt of
gifts, grants and donations for the benefit of the center reduces
the amount of public moneys that must be spent for the operation,
improvement and maintenance of facilities or programs.
  ' (2) The successful solicitation of gifts, grants and
donations by a nonprofit, tax exempt organization for the benefit
of the center minimizes the cost to the state of obtaining those
gifts, grants and donations. Cooperation between the center and
such an organization, including the provision of tickets and
other promotional items, facilities, supplies, staff and services
by the center for use by such an organization in connection with
fund raising efforts, serves a public purpose by increasing the
ability of the organization to successfully solicit gifts, grants
and donations for the benefit of the center. + }
  '  { +  SECTION 2. + }  { + (1) The Director of the Oregon
State Fair and Exposition Center may cooperate with any
nonprofit, tax exempt organization designated by the director as
an appropriate organization to solicit gifts, grants and
donations for the benefit of the Oregon State Fair and Exposition
Center.
  ' (2) The director may advise and receive advice from an
organization described in subsection (1) of this section. The
director may, if allowed by the charter and bylaws of the
organization, serve ex officio as a regular or nonvoting board
member of the organization. The director may not chair the board
of directors, vote for or appoint other board members, control
the financial affairs of the organization or oversee the
day-to-day operation of the organization.
  ' (3) The director may provide the organization with tickets
and other promotional items, facilities, supplies, staff and
services for the purpose of increasing the ability of the
organization to successfully solicit gifts, grants and donations
for the benefit of the center.
  ' (4) The director may enter into an agreement for the donation
to the center of goods, services and public improvements by a
nonprofit, tax exempt organization. + } ' .
