SEASIDE — The city
plans to move forward with the
creation of an urban renewal
area encompassing land along
South Holladay, Avenue S
from U.S. Highway 101 east
and the southern section of
Highway 101.
Funds could be used for
bridge safety, traffi c improve-
ments, property acquisitions
or affordable housing, among
other potential projects.
“What we’re planning is
what the city is going to look
like out 20 years,” Mayor Jay
Barber said after a commu-
nity forum Wednesday. “I’m
excited about the potential to
get good community impact
and then plan for those next
years.”
Urban renewal is a fi nanc-
ing program authorized under
state law and implemented
locally that allows for the use
of property tax revenues to
grow the economy in blighted
areas.
These typically contain
sections of a city which are
underdeveloped and not con-
tributing fully to the econ-

omy, according to a handout
provided by Elaine Howard
Consulting.
Funds from previous Sea-
side urban renewal proj-
ects have been used to bring
improvements to the Prom, the
Downing pocket park, remov-
als of overhead utilities, down-
town lighting, the city’s sew-
age plant and the fi re station
among others.
Funding comes through
increases in assessed values
of local properties, consul-
tant Scott Vanden Bos said.
As new development arrives
and existing properties are
improved, assessments rise
and see matching property tax
increases.

growth in assessed value in
the urban renewal area — in
the model used, about 25 years
— are allocated to the city’s
Urban Renewal Agency and
not the taxing districts.
“We get the money from the
taxpayer,” City Manager Mark
Winstanley said. “The taxing
districts stand on the side. The
amount of money they can tax
against in the urban renewal
district gets frozen.”
In Clatsop County, neigh-
boring taxing districts include
the Port of Astoria, 4H, Sea-
side Road, Union Health, Sun-
set Park, Sunset Transpor-
tation, Clatsop Community
College, Northwest Regional
Education Service District and
Seaside School District 10.
The county must review the
plan before its approval.
City upgrades can lead to
higher home values and in turn
higher assessments, ultimately
adding to funds for the urban
renewal district. The city’s last
urban renewal district helped
fund improvements on North
Holladay Drive.
“This is where urban
renewal has its impact,” Win-
stanley said. “That’s what
we’re seeing on North Holla-
day. The neighborhood’s get-
ting better and better and bet-
ter. That’s what it’s all about.
That’s what we hope to do
with a new urban renewal
district.”
