HB 2493 prohibits the Oregon Environmental Quality Commission from establishing a <br />cap and trade system for greenhouse gases. This bill is counter to the City of Eugene <br />legislative policy on greenhouse gas, counter to the recommendations made by the <br />Western Climate Initiative, and counter to Governor Kulongoski’s Climate Change <br />Initiative. <br />While there are challenges to the design and implementation of a cap and trade <br />mechanism, removing the ability for a professional state organization to establish a <br />citizen led process is counter productive to addressing the Climate Change issue. <br />The City of Eugene should oppose HB 2493 <br />ContactRespondentDept Updated Priority Policy Poli Numb Recommendation <br />Felicity Fahy Felicity Fahy CS-CMO 2/3/2009 Pri 1 Yes YesVII.

A2 Oppose <br />Comments: <br />HB 2494 would extend an existing property tax partial exemption. The measure would <br />reduce revenue to the City of Eugene and all other local jurisdictions depending on <br />property tax revenue. The lost revenue would not be replaced by the Legislature. <br />Curently within Eugene about $2.3 billion in otherwise taxable property value is exempted <br />under the dozens of kinds of property tax exemptions in state statutes. This would <br />produce about $15.8 million revenue for the City's General Fund if it were not exempt <br />property. There are continuing efforts in the Legislature to expand current exemptions <br />and add new exemptions, each of which would reduce City revenue further. <br />HB 2496 <br />Relating Clause: Relating to property tax exemptions for charitable organizations; prescribing an effective <br />date. <br />Title: <br />Authorizes property tax exemptions for qualified welfare programs that benefit animals. <br />Permits qualified welfare programs to apply for refund or abatement of property taxes. <br /> Applies to tax years beginning on and after July 1, 2002. <br /> Takes effect on 91st day following adjournment sine die. <br />Sponsored by: Representative ROBLAN; Representative BOONE, Senator BURDICK (at the request of <br />Florence Area Humane Society) <br />URL: http://www.leg.state.or.us/09reg/measpdf/hb2400.dir/hb2496.intro.pdf <br />ContactRespondentDept Updated Priority Policy Poli Numb Recommendation <br />8 <br /> <br />
