Res 1786 - Measure 37 claims
COUNCIL BILL NO. 2563
RESOLUTION NO. 1786
A RESOLUTION REQUIRING WAIVER OF MEASURE 37 CLAIMS FOR PROPERTY OWNERS
ANNEXING PROPERTY INTO THE CITY OF WOODBURN.
WHEREAS, the Oregon voters passed Measure 37 at the November 2004 election;
and
WHEREAS, Measure 37 permits a property owner who owned property prior to
enactment of a land use regulation restricting its use to make a claim against the
governing body enforcing a land use regulation for the reduction in the value of the
property; and
WHEREAS, when properties are annexed into the City of Woodburn from the
Urban Growth Area, new land use regulations will apply which may restrict uses and
result in Measure 37 claims; and
WHEREAS, whenever a property owner requests annexation, the City has
determined that the property owner is choosing to be bound by the land use
regulations then in effect within the City; NOW, THEREFORE,
THE CITY OF WOODBURN RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City will not consider any request for annexation into the City limits
unless all persons or entities with an ownership interest in the property submit a written
waiver of any Measure 37 claim that may accrue for uses that could have been made
of the property prior to its annexation into the City of Woodburn.
