Exhibit B
This measure, if approved in both the City and in the area proposed for annexation,would
annex the unincorporated Bull Mountain area into Tigard effective July 1, 2005, and
withdraw the area from the Tigard Water District, Washington County Street Lighting
District, Washington County Enhanced Sheriff's Patrol District,and the Urban Road
Maintenance District. The area is within the UGB.
The area includes areas west of the existing City limits, north of Beef Bend,south of
Barrows. The area does not include UGB expansion areas 63 and 64.
Property owners in the unincorporated Bull Mountain would no longer pay for county
special service districts such as road maintenance, Enhanced Sheriff's Patrol,and street light
maintenance.
All city taxes, including property taxes and bond or serial levies for the area to be annexed,
would be phased in over three years. City property taxes in the area proposed for
annexation for the first year after annexation (fiscal year 2005-06) would be set at 500/0 of
the City's tax rate;City property taxes for the second year (fiscal year 2006-07) would be
set at 75%of the City's tax rate, and City property taxes for all later years would be at
100%of the City's rate.
Annexation would result in a property tax increase of approximately 8.3%to 8.4%within
the area to be annexed, based on the amount payable in the third year after annexation.
Property owners within the area to be annexed would begin paying property taxes to the
City of Tigard, but would stop paying some property taxes to Washington County. Property
with an assessed value of$250,000 would experience a net property tax increase of$317
in the third year. The area would be subject to the City's street maintenance fee on
annexation. Other charges may also increase. The annexation would create an increase in
revenue to the City of Tigard, but the City would have higher operating costs. Increased
revenue to the City includes additional state shared revenues,system development charges,
traffic impact fees, franchise fees and property taxes. Property taxes for existing City
property owners will not increase,and service levels to existing city residents will not
decrease, as a result of this annexation.
Annexation of the Bull Mountain area would not impact service levels for existing city
residents. The City would become responsible for capital improvements in the Bull
Mountain area.
in comparison to the services that Washington County provides residents of the Bull
Mountain annexation area, the City of Tigard provides its residents with more police officers
per 1000 population, shorter police emergency response times, more park facilities, traffic
calming programs,and more frequent road maintenance services.
if annexed, Bull Mountain residents would receive broader civic participation and voting
rights in the City of Tigard.
Exhibit B
Newly annexed residents and existing City residents would be involved in updating the
Comprehensive Plans for both the City and the Bull Mountain areas.
