Call to Order and Review Agenda <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman called the meeting of the Council Committee on Intergovernmental Relations (CCIGR) to <br />order. <br /> <br /> <br />2. Review Pending Legislation <br /> <br />HB 3319 <br /> <br />Ms. Wilson said the bill was dead because it did not meet the work session deadline but the language would <br />be “gutted and stuffed” into another prevailing wage bill. <br /> <br />There was a unanimous vote to support Ms. Bettman’s suggestion to change the bill’s status to Monitor. <br /> <br />SB 1036 <br /> <br />Ms. Wilson distributed amendments to the bill. Mr. Hill explained that staff recommended opposing the bill <br />because it would place limitations on a jurisdiction’s ability to impose a tax on real property construction <br />improvements and require that revenue be remitted to the school district. He said the bill represented a <br />limitation on home rule authority. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman concurred with the staff recommendation of an Oppose Priority 2 position, but requested <br />additional information on the issue. <br /> <br />HB 2422-A <br /> <br />Mr. Hill said that a revenue analysis of the first year of the cigarette tax increase indicated the City of <br />Eugene could expect to receive about $1,890 because a majority of the revenue was dedicated to senior and <br />disabled transit services. He recommended a Priority 2 Support position as it provided a benefit for the <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Council Committee on Intergovernmental Relations May 8, 2007 Page 1 <br /> <br />
