Brotherton, City Attorney -P" <br />Subject: Scrivener Error Corrections / Ordinance No. 20616 <br />Memorandum <br />It has come to our attention that reference errors exist in Ordinance No. 20616. <br />On June 10, 2019, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 20616 (Payroll Tax) adding <br />Sections 3.720, 3.722, 3.724, 3.726, 3.728, 3.730, 3.732, 3.734, 3.736, and 3.738 to the Eugene <br />Code, 1971. However, prior to the Council's adoption of Ordinance No. 20616, on April 8, 2019, <br />the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 20609 (Construction Excise Tax) applying Code section <br />numbers 3.730, 3.732, 3.734, 3.736, and 3.738 to new Code sections adopted by that ordinance. <br />At the time of Ordinance No. 20616's adoption, the Code sections adopted by Ordinance No. <br />20609 did not yet appear in the Eugene Code. <br />We consider the erroneous use of duplicate Code section numbers in Ordinance No. <br />20616 to be scrivener errors and, therefore, the Code sections adopted by Ordinance No. 20616, <br />and all references to those sections in the Ordinance, should be renumbered. <br />Please effect scrivener error corrections to Ordinance No. 20616 so that the Code sections <br />are renumbered to 3.750, 3.752, 3.754, 3.756, 3.758, 3.760, 3.762, 3.764, 3.766, and 3.768 as <br />shown in legislative format on the copy of the Ordinance attached to this memo. <br />This correction is authorized by Section 8 of Ordinance No. 20616. Please attach a copy <br />of this memo and its attachment to that Ordinance. <br />City of Eugene . 125 E. 8th Ave. • Eugene, OR 97401 • 541-682-8447 • 541-682-5414 Fax <br />www.eugene-or.gov <br />
