5:03 PM - Introductions
5:04 PM - Public Hearing and Vote on Payment-In-Lieu-of-Tax (PILOT) Policy
A longstanding Finance Committee goal has been to develop a PILOT policy for the City of Portland.
The current draft of the PILOT policy represents the culmination of that work, incorporating
feedback and public comment from the past several years of Finance Committee work and
2017-2018 Housing and Economic Development Committee work. Based on the feedback from the
nonprofit community and City Council to date, the PILOT policy being presented is entirely
voluntary , includes a $10M exemption to address concerns from small and medium sized exempt
entities, and includes a 50% services-in-lieu of taxes credit in consideration of “other services” that
benefit the community which are provided by exempt organizations. After brief comments, the
Committee held a public hearing, had additional Committee discussion, and held a vote to
recommend an amended draft policy to the full City Council for adoption:
