TAXATION FOR LOCAL PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS
280.040 Definitions for ORS 280.040 to
280.145; use of certain tax revenues. (1) As used
in ORS 280.040 to 280.145:
(a)
“Local option tax” means a tax described under section 11 (4) or (7)(c),
Article XI of the Oregon Constitution.
(b)
“Subdivision” includes only such counties, municipal corporations,
quasi-municipal corporations and civil or political corporations or
subdivisions as are empowered by law to levy ad valorem property taxes, except
that “subdivision” does not include an education service district.
(2)
All ad valorem tax revenues that are received by any subdivision as a result of
a levy under ORS 280.040 to 280.090 and that are derived from an ad valorem tax
levied for purposes other than general operations shall be:
(a)
Kept by the treasurer or other financial officer in a fund that is separate and
distinct from other funds of the subdivision.
(b)
Expended only for the purpose for which the taxes were imposed. [Amended by
1997 c.541 §302; 1999 c.632 §21; 1999 c.1094 §1]
280.050 Providing funds for financing cost
of services, projects, property and equipment.
Funds may be obtained as prescribed in ORS 280.040 to 280.145 for the purpose
of financing the cost of any service, project, property or equipment which a
subdivision has lawful power to perform, construct or acquire, and of repairs
and improvements thereto and of maintenance and replacement thereof. [Amended
by 1967 c.203 §4]
280.055 Obtaining and advancing of funds
to county service districts. Funds may be
obtained by a county as prescribed by ORS 280.040 to 280.145 for the purpose of
advancing funds to a district established under ORS 451.410 to 451.610 to
finance the cost of any service facility which the district is authorized to
construct, maintain and operate. [1969 c.646 §17]
280.057 Local option taxes for community
colleges; maximum amount. A local option tax levied by a
community college district or community college service district may not exceed
the amount of reduction in ad valorem property taxes caused under ORS 310.200
to 310.242. [1997 c.541 §308b]
Note:
280.057 was added to and made a part of 280.040 to 280.145 by legislative
action but was not added to any smaller series therein. See Preface to Oregon
Revised Statutes for further explanation.
280.060 Levy of local option taxes outside
constitutional limitation; duration of levy; approval of levy as approval of
bonds. (1) Upon approval of a majority of the
electors of a subdivision in a manner that qualifies under section 11 (8),
Article XI of the Oregon Constitution, a subdivision may levy local option
taxes outside the limitation imposed by section 11 (3), Article XI, Oregon
Constitution, over the period of time that is authorized by the electors. The
amount levied each year shall be:
(a)
Uniform, or substantially so, throughout the period during which the taxes are
levied; or
(b)
Computed annually at the same dollar rate per thousand dollars assessed value
in the subdivision, such rate to be declared in and made a part of the ballot
measure to be submitted to the electorate.
(2)
Notwithstanding subsection (1) of this section, a subdivision may certify for
extension on the assessment and tax roll under ORS 310.060 a lesser amount of
local option tax or a lesser rate of local option tax if the subdivision
decides to collect less than the entire local option tax authorized by
electors. The subdivision shall certify the lesser amount or rate in the
written notice required to be made under ORS 310.060.
(3)(a)
The period of time authorized by the electors shall not exceed five years or,
if the local option tax is for capital projects, the lesser of:
(A)
The expected useful life of the capital projects to be financed by the tax; or
(B)
Ten years.
(b)
A local option tax for capital projects does not exceed the expected useful
life of the capital projects financed by the tax if the estimated weighted
average life of the tax does not exceed the estimated dollar weighted average
of the capital assets comprising the capital projects that are to be financed
by the tax. The estimated dollar weighted average life of capital projects shall
be calculated under rules of the Department of Revenue that ensure that a local
option tax for capital projects is levied for no more than 10 years and no more
than the useful life of the component of the capital projects financed by the
tax that has the longest useful life.
(4)(a)
All local option taxes authorized by ORS 280.040 to 280.145 that are for
capital projects and that have a term of more than five years shall be
submitted to electors separately from local option taxes with a term of five
years or less.
(b)
For purposes of this subsection, “capital project” means the acquisition of
land upon which to construct an improvement, the acquisition of a building, the
acquisition or construction of improvements, the acquisition of an addition to
a building which increases the square footage of the building, the construction
of a building, the construction of an addition to an existing building which
increases the square footage of the building or the acquisition of and
installation of machinery and equipment which will become an integral part of a
building or an addition to a building, the purchase of furnishings, equipment
or other tangible property with an expected useful life of more than one year
or a combination of those items.
(5)
If a ballot measure authorizing a local option tax states that the taxing
district may issue bonds that are payable from that tax, voter approval of the
tax shall constitute voter approval of the bonds, except that the approval
shall not entitle the taxing district to collect a greater amount of tax than
the taxing district would have been entitled to collect if the ballot measure
only authorized local option taxes and did not authorize bonds. If the local
option tax is approved by voters in a manner that qualifies under section 11
(8), Article XI of the Oregon Constitution, then the taxing body may issue the
bonds in a principal amount that, together with the estimated interest to be
paid on the bonds while the bonds are outstanding, does not exceed the revenues
estimated to be received from the local option tax levy. A taxing district may
pledge the revenues received from the local option tax and the taxing district’s
full faith and credit to pay bonds authorized under this subsection. [Amended
by 1953 c.134 §2; 1977 c.730 §1; 1979 c.241 §24; 1981 c.804 §79; 1989 c.658 §1;
1997 c.541 §303; 1999 c.21 §6; 1999 c.559 §4; 1999 c.1094 §2]
280.064 Period for use of revenues raised
by local option tax. Subject to ORS 294.305 to
294.565 and the applicable provisions of a charter, ordinance or resolution of
a subdivision, a subdivision may use revenues raised by a local option tax
beyond the period of years during which the subdivision is authorized to levy
the local option tax if the revenue is used for the purpose authorized by the
electors. [2003 c.195 §6]
Note:
280.064 was added to and made a part of 280.040 to 280.145 by legislative
action but was not added to any smaller series therein. See Preface to Oregon
Revised Statutes for further explanation.

(2)
An election within a city for the purpose of approving a tax levy or tax rate

280.075 Ballot statements for local option
tax measures. (1) Notwithstanding any other law and
when not inconsistent with or otherwise provided for in the Oregon
Constitution, whenever a proposed local option tax is submitted to a vote of
the people by any subdivision, the statement in the ballot title for the
measure that explains the chief purpose of the measure and gives reasons for
the measure shall state the total amount of money to be raised by the proposed
local option tax, in dollars and cents. If the statement in the ballot title
for the measure submitted includes an estimated tax impact, it shall be based
on the most current estimate of assessed value from the county assessor. The

option tax shall be stated in dollars and cents. If the levy described in ORS
280.060 (1)(b) raises more money than estimated, the excess collections above
that estimate shall be considered a budget resource for the levy fund in the
next fiscal year of the subdivision. This section does not apply to an election
authorizing general obligation bonds or the tax levies to repay general
obligation bonds.

(Cities)
280.410 Definitions for ORS 280.410 to
280.485. As used in ORS 280.410 to 280.485
unless the context requires otherwise:
(1)(a)
“Economic development project” includes any properties, real or personal, used
or useful in connection with a revenue producing enterprise.
(b)
“Economic development project” also includes multiple unit residential housing
development, including low income single room occupancy housing, on land having
an assessed valuation of $8 per square foot or more on September 13, 1975, land
within a designated urban renewal or redevelopment area formed pursuant to ORS
chapter 457, or projects which benefit low or moderate income tenants, or
address slum and blight as defined by the 1974 Housing and Community
Development Act.
(c)
“Economic development project” shall not include any facility or facilities
designed primarily for the operation, transmission, sale or distribution of
electrical energy.
(2)
“Eligible project” means an economic development project found by the city to
meet standards adopted pursuant to ORS 280.410 to 280.485.
(3)
“City” means any city with a population of 70,000 or more.
(4)
“Cost” as applied to any project includes:
(a)
The cost of construction and reconstruction;
(b)
The cost of acquisition of property, including rights in land and other
property, both real and personal and improved and unimproved and the cost of
site improvements;
(c)
The cost of demolishing, removing or relocating any buildings or structures on
lands so acquired, including the cost of acquiring any lands to which the
buildings or structures may be moved or relocated;
(d)
The cost of eligible machinery and equipment and related financing charges;
(e)

expenses according to a project plan developed by the city, and the financing
of the construction of the project thereof, including reimbursement to any
state or other governmental agency or any lessee of such project for the
expenditures made with the approval of the city that would be costs of the
project under ORS 280.410 to 280.485 had they been made directly by the city.
(5)
“Low income” means an income not exceeding 80 percent of the prevailing median
income, based on family size, within the city. [1977 c.772 §2; 1979 c.865 §1;
1981 c.368 §1; 1991 c.560 §1; 2003 c.286 §1]
280.415 Legislative findings.
The Legislative Assembly finds that:
(1)
Cities with a population of 70,000 or more should be granted the powers granted
to the state by ORS 285B.320 to 285B.371 in order to reduce substantially
within their boundaries the occurrence of economic conditions requiring more
expensive remedial action. There exist in Oregon’s larger cities substantial
adverse economic conditions requiring immediate remedial action. Such
conditions include decreasing opportunities for gainful employment and lack of
sites and facilities for orderly and necessary retail, commercial and
industrial growth. Amelioration of these conditions is deemed a public purpose
and the acquisition of property for such purpose is deemed a public use. To
meet the needs of these cities it is necessary to grant them full authority to
undertake and complete development and redevelopment projects, and to assist
public and private organizations engaged in such projects, including the
issuance of industrial or other nonrecourse revenue bonds. It is the purpose of
ORS 280.410 to 280.485 to authorize the exercise of such powers by cities with
a population of 70,000 in addition to and not in lieu of any other powers such
cities may possess.
(2)
The lack of residential housing in the core and inner areas of Oregon’s larger
cities also is a cause of adverse economic conditions. Development of housing
in such areas can be a factor which contributes to orderly economic growth by
providing decent housing for workers necessary to attract and promote desirable
retail, commercial and industrial growth. Therefore it is also the purpose of
ORS 280.410 to 280.485 to permit cities with a population of 70,000 or more
authority to issue revenue bonds for housing purposes. The Legislative
Assembly, in granting this authority, intends to increase Oregon’s available
housing stock. In exercising options under that authority, preference should be
given by cities to those projects which add housing units through new
construction or rehabilitation of nonresidential buildings. For low income
single room occupancy housing, however, cities may renovate existing single
room housing, convert nonresidential buildings or construct new buildings.
(3)
Cities with a population of 70,000 or more suffer from a lack of available
mortgage financing for the purchase of multiple unit homes in such cities.
There is a need for a low-cost mortgage financing for multiple unit home
purchasers in order to prevent urban decay and blight and to promote the
economic well-being of those cities. [1977 c.772 §1; 1979 c.865 §2; 1981 c.368 §2;

shall be given to the borrower’s, lessee’s or purchaser’s ratio of current
assets to current liabilities, net worth, earning trends, coverage of all fixed
charges, the nature of the industry or business involved, its inherent
stability, any guarantee of the obligations by some other financially
