City Attorney's Office City of Eugene TT T 777 Pearl Street, Room 105 MEMORANDUM M Eugene, Oregon 97401 -2793 (541) 682 -8447 (541) 682 -5414 FAX www.eugene- or.gov Date: November 10, 2011 To: Sandra Stubbs, Deputy City Recorder rte,, From: Glenn Klein, City Attorney Subject: Scrivener Error Correction to C 2.945 Adopted by Ordinance No. 20479 It has come to our attention that two reference errors exist in Ordinance No. 20479 which was adopted on September 26, 2011. Ordinance No. 20479 amended EC 2.945(2) to redefine the area eligible to receive multiple -unit property tax exemptions ( MUPTE). That redefinition deleted subsections (2)(a) and (2)(b) from EC 2.945, thereby removing the areas known as "the core area" and "the transit oriented area" as MUPTE eligible areas, and instead adopted a new subsection (2) which described the MUPTE eligible area as the "downtown area." Due to the amendment to EC 2.945(2), the reference to "core or transit oriented areas" in 'EC 2.945(6)(b) should have been amended to read "downtown area." In addition, EC 2.945(6)(g) should have been deleted because that subsection refers to deleted subsection EC 2.945(2)(b) and deals solely with MUPTE in the transit oriented area. Please effect a scrivener error correction so that EC 2.945(6)(b) reads as follows: "(b) The project is located within the boundaries of the downtown area described in subsection (2) above ;" Please also effect a scrivener error correction to delete subsection (g) from EC 2.945(6) and reletter the subsequent subsections. This correction is authorized by Ordinance No. 20479. A copy of this memo should be attached to that Ordinance. {00058887;1)
