OREGON 97209 t. 15031222-4402 FROM Kenneth M. Elliott Iq �. RE Termination of Tigard Urban Renewal Agency The City Attorney's office was requested to review the status of TURA and suggest a time line and procedure for termination of the Agency, in response to Ballot Measure No. 51. The Planning Director, Finance Director and I met on February 13, 1984, and discussed what must be done to terminate TURA in accordance with Oregon statutory requirements. ORS 457.075 allows the governing body of a municipality to terminate an ,urban renewal agency by ordinance if it finds: 1. A need no longer exists for the agency; and 2. All indebtedness to which a portion. of taxes is irrevocably pledged for payment under ORS 457.440 (6) is fully paid. The City Finance Director has determined that the Agency will not be able t^ pay al-I of such ir.A-htedness until well into the 84-85 fiscal year. Estima-L-ed tax receipts, which had been at $17,000 per year, <have now been reduced to about $15,000 per year. Because tax income will be inadequate to satisfy all outstanding ' obligations prior to close of the 83-84 fiscal year, the Finance Director has requested a $3,000 budget to fund TURA in the 84-85 fiscal year. The Agency will need to file its annual report on Auaust 1, 1984, but should have little or no other business before or after that date. The Planning Department has estimated it will require an additional 5 to 6 hours for its work in preparing the annual report and assisting with termination. The City Attorney's office has estimated :it will require no more than 5 hours, and probably less than that, unless the attached draft Ordinances need substantial revision or complications arise that require additional assistance. I have set forth below a tentative time line of events leading up to and including termination of TURA: 1. March 1984 City Council to adopt Ordinance limiting the number of agency meetings. (See attached draft Ordinance) . 2. June 1984 - City Council to adopt TURA budget for 84-85 fiscal year: 3. August 1984 Agency Board meeting to review and adopt 1984 Annual Report. ' ': �z f` Mayor Bishop and City Council March 5, 1984 Page 2 4. December 1984 - Finance Director to monitor November 15, 1984 tax receipts. 5. March or June 1985 - Finance Director to monitor February 15 and May 15, 1985 tax receipts and prepare written certifica- tion to City Council that all indebtedness has been paid. 6. City Council to adopt Ordinance terminating TURA and re- pealing Title 19 of the Tigard Municipal Code. (See attached draft) .
