Local Measures
County of Lincoln
Changes selection of the Board of Commissioners from partisan to nonpartisan.
Question
Shall Ordinance Number 469 be approved changing the mode of selection of elected Lincoln County Board of Commissioners from partisan to nonpartisan?
Summary
Under current state law, the Board of County Commissioners' offices is elected on a partisan basis. The Board of Commissioners adopted Ordinance Number 469 on August 14, 2013, which changes the mode of selection of these offices to nonpartisan elections. That Ordinance can only go into effect if it is approved by the voters of Lincoln County. A "Yes" vote approves of the Ordinance and changes the selection method from partisan to nonpartisan starting January 1, 2014. A "No" vote keeps the current partisan mode of selecting Commissioners in place.
City of Newport
General Obligations Bonds for New Indoor Municipal Swimming Pool.
Question
Shall the City of Newport authorize $7.9 million in General Obligation bonds for a new indoor municipal swimming pool?
If the bonds are approved, they will be payable from taxes on property or property ownership that are not subject to the limits of sections 11 and 11b, Article XI, of the Oregon Constitution.
Summary
The City of Newport would issue up to $7.9 million of General Obligation bonds for a new indoor municipal swimming pool and related systems, facilities, and improvements, and to pay fees associated with issuing the bonds. The bonds may be issued in more than one series and each series would mature over a period not to exceed 20 years.
The current plan is that the new pool would be located adjacent to the existing Newport Recreation Center and share resources with the Center including locker rooms, a control desk, security, and parking. The current planned location of the new pool would not require the acquisition or purchase of property by the city.
New Bridge Special Road District
Formation of New Bridge Special Road District.
Question
Shall this road district be formed with a tax rate limit of $1 per $1,000 assessed property value beginning 2014 to 2015?
Summary
Approval of this measure would form New Bridge Special Road District, a special road district in north Lincoln County consisting of the Slick Rock Retreat, Section 1, Township 7 South, Range 10 West, Willamette Meridian, and the following property in Section 36, Township 6 South, Range 10 West, Willamette Meridian: Tax Lots 1200 and 1300.
Approval of this measure would also approve a permanent tax rate limit for the district of $1 per $1,000 assessed property value as the maximum rate of operating taxes for the district, beginning in fiscal tax year 2014 to 2015.
The boundary of the proposed district consists of Assessor's Map Tax Lots 07-10-01-BB: 00106, 00109, 00112, 00200-01300, 01500-02800, 03100-3500; Map Tax Lots: 07-10-01-BD 00100-1100; Map Tax Lots 06-10-36-C 01200 and 01300.
