Section 123-668-1300 - Enhanced Public Services and Other Local Incentives
Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 12, December 1, 2024
For purposes of ORS 285C.105(1)(b) and local incentives that an enterprise zone sponsor or cosponsor elects by policy to provide to authorized business firms qualifying for the standard property tax exemption (OAR 123-674) within its jurisdiction or service territory:
(1) Such local incentives include but are not limited to:
(2) Unless clearly stipulated in the sponsor's policy as discretionary, any such incentive is binding on that sponsoring government and must be implemented (for example, by ordinance as necessary) and made regularly available to any business firm that makes application for authorization on or after the effective date that the co/sponsor adopted its policy to provide the incentive. An incentive's status as binding in the enterprise zone for purposes of this rule is not altered by its being generally offered or available to other (non-enterprise zone) business firms within the sponsor's jurisdiction or service territory.
(3) With respect to any such binding incentive but not necessarily one that is discretionary:
(4) For purposes of a zone sponsor's putting forward one or more new incentives to replace an incentive or incentives that are binding according to this rule, in order to avoid termination of the zone under ORS 285C.245(3)(b)(A):
(5) A local incentive offered or binding in a cosponsor's jurisdiction or territory has no bearing on the incentives:
