BACKGROUND:
The Shared Financial Services Unit of the Oregon Department of Administrative Services is
responsible for certification of eligibility of cities for state shared revenues derived from cigarette, liquor, and highway taxes under ORS 221.760. The law provides that cities located
within a county having more than 100,000 inhabitants, according to the most recent census, must provide four or more of the following municipal services in order to be eligible to receive the shared revenues.
1. Police protection
2. Fire protection
3. Street construction, maintenance, and lighting
4. Sanitary sewer
5. Storm sewers
6. Planning, zoning, and subdivision control
7. One or more utility services
In order for Oregon City to receive these revenues, the City Commission must submit to the
Department of Administrative Services an approved Resolution which states that the City
provides four or more of these services. This certification must be sent annually even if the
budget is approved on a biennial basis.
