Taxation Observations
We understand there is some commotion over in
our titter city of West Linn because the tax levy there
is in excess of the levy in Oregon City, and that that
some doubt has been expressed as to the correctness of
the figures printed in The Enterprise. These figures
are matters of news to which the many readers of The
Enterprise both in West Linn and Oregon City are en
titled. In Oregon City there is a city levy of 1 4.5 mills,
a special school levy of 1 1,3 mills and a general county
levy to which every taxpayer in the ctfunty is subjected
of 22.2 mills, making a total of 48 mills. In West Linn,
or that part of it lying directly west of Oregon City,
'here is a city levy of 9.1 mills, a special school levy of
9.2 mills for District No. 34 and another special school
levy of 9.4 mills for Union High School District No. 3.
plus the county levy of 22.2 mills makes a total of 49.9
mills. In that part of West Linn embracing School Dis
trict No. 105, of Willamette, the total levy is 47.5 mills,
or one-half a mill less than in Oregon Gty and 2.4 mills
less than in the main section of West Linn, as the special
levy for District No. 105 is 6.8 mills against 9.2 mills
for district No. 34.
As previously stated in these columns municipal
advantages come high. West Linn has a double-headed
school system, and could manifestly economize by ihe
consolidation of its two school districts and its union
high school district. The joint levy for District No. 34
and Union High School District No. 3 is 18.6 mills, or
5.3 mills in excess of the total school levy for Oregon
City.
Again, West Linn's city tax is not excessive, tak
ing into consideration the fact that the water bonds
must be paid from that source. Oregon City's city tax
of 14.5 mills is limited by charter, which provides that
only 7 mills shall be diverted to operating expense, one
half mill for the library, and 7 mills for bond sinking
funds. Both cities, in common with other municipal
ities, receive 70 per cent of the district road tax collect
ed on property within their respective boundaries. Ore
gon City, however, enjoys additional advantages in the
nature of paved streets, sewers, etc., that West Linn
may some day acquire at a price.
