● URD - Urban Renewal District
• Elaine Howard, Urban Renewal consultant, presented information on
Urban Renewal Districts (URDs) and tax increment financing for the
purpose of educating the City Council and Finance Committee.
• Ms. Howard explained that urban renewal is authorized by state law and
is not a new or additional tax, but a redistribution of existing property
tax revenues generated from increases in assessed value within the
URD.
• She reviewed how assessed values are frozen at the time of URD
adoption, with taxing districts continuing to receive revenue from the
frozen base while increased assessed value is allocated to the Urban
Renewal Agency for eligible projects.
• Ms. Howard discussed property tax limitations under Measures 5 and 50
and how tax increment revenues are calculated and distributed by the
county assessor.
• Impacts to taxing districts were reviewed, including clarification that
schools, education service districts, and community colleges are
backfilled by the State of Oregon and are not directly impacted by
urban renewal.
• The distribution of property tax revenues among taxing districts was
presented, and Ms. Howard noted the City’s low permanent rate levy
and the role of urban renewal as a key financing tool for infr

● Continue Discussion of Water Capacity for Future Development
(01:15) The Commission continued its discussion regarding water capacity for future
development. City staff and the City’s water system operator provided an overview
of summer water demand compared to available supply, including system capacity,
seasonal fluctuations, and operational constraints. A graphical presentation
illustrated gallons-per-minute demand, creek flows, and the effect of the City’s
water agreement with South Lincoln County, which provides additional capacity
during peak demand periods.
Discussion focused on the City’s ability to meet current and projected demand,
system resilience during emergency events such as fire or major leaks, and long-
term considerations including climate change
impacts, population trends, and tourism-related seasonal population increases.
Commissioners discussed prior drought years, potential future reductions in stream
flow, and regional coordination efforts. Staff noted that while long-range projections
involve uncertainty, current data indicate the City can meet foreseeable demand,
subject to continued monitoring and planning.

● Vacant properties w/o services & properties with septic tanks
The discussion focused on long-term infrastructure planning for vacant properties
without utility services and for developed properties currently served by septic
systems within city limits; members reviewed information indicating that
approximately fourteen developed properties rely on septic systems and
approximately fifteen vacant properties currently lack sewer service, with many
located significant distances from existing sewer infrastructure, making extensions
costly and technically complex.
Discussion continued regarding existing City Code provisions related to sewer
connection requirements, including the requirement to connect when service is
available, the lack of clarity regarding distance thresholds, the continued installation
of septic systems, and coordination with Planning and Code Enforcement.
Environmental risks, system maintenance, septic system lifespan, and Lincoln
County and State of Oregon regulatory requirements were identified as needing
review.
● Approach to providing services
Discussion continued around potential strategies to address these issues, including
identifying property ownership and occupancy status, educating property owners
about septic maintenance obligations, evaluating phased sewer ex
