Seaside: Additions, changes to plan can come at any time
Manager Mark Winstanley
said. “The other agencies don’t
get that.”
Southeast Seaside’s infra-
structure goals, prepared in
a May goal-setting session,
include a pedestrian bike
bridge, parks projects and
upgrades to unincorporated
properties in the area. Because
part of the land is owned
by the county, those areas
would need to be annexed
into the city. Annexation
would require approval from
the Clatsop County Board of
Commissioners.
“Typically, counties are
very supportive if you’re doing
infrastructure,” Elaine Howard
of Howard Consultants said.
“And 90-something percent of
your plan is infrastructure.”
Spending decisions can be
changed as long as their cost

Using tax increment financ-
ing, funding comes through
increases in assessed values
of local properties. As new
development arrives and exist-
ing properties are improved,
assessments rise and see prop-
erty tax increases. Property
taxes on the growth in assessed
value in the urban renewal area
are frozen and increases are
allocated to the city’s urban
renewal agency and not the
taxing districts. Subsequent
improvements can lead to
higher home values and in turn
higher assessments, ultimately
generating more funds for the
urban renewal district.
“As the assessed value
grows in the district, only the
urban renewal agencies can
tax against that increase,” City
does not exceed the debt the
agency can incur, Howard said.
The city is limited to proj-
ects listed in the city’s urban
renewal plan.
Members of the commis-
sion considered both 20- and
25-year scenarios.
A 20-year timeline would
have yielded a maximum
indebtedness of $37.6 million;
maximum indebtedness using
a 25-year urban renewal dis-
trict reaches $62.4 million.
“It’s a marked difference
between 20 and 25 years,”
Winstanley said.
Bridge upgrades by them-
selves could consume a large
portion of the project fund,
Howard said. “You’ve got
those bridge repairs, which
really may be a top priority,”
Howard said. “But they’re $26
million. That’s a lot of money.
Port: Balanced budget proposed
legal issues regarding its Pier
3 stormwater system and an
Oregon State Bar investiga-
tion into an anonymous com-
plaint filed against Port Prop-
erty and Contracts Director
Shane Jensen.
Fulton recommended about
$368,000 worth of cuts, includ-
ing a $200,000 reduction in the
Port’s staffing. He also called
for an additional $200,000 to
be allocated for a legal fund.
The Port is involved in two
active lawsuits surrounding
the Astoria Riverwalk Inn, one
as a defendant being sued by
the spurned potential opera-
tor Param Hotel Corp., and
another as a plaintiff suing the
heavily indebted former opera-
tor, Brad Smithart.
“To keep the Port solvent,
I think we have to go through
this line by line, and make cuts
in this budget,” Hunsinger
said, claiming the Port does
not have the funds to match
any grants it might receive.
The budget staff proposed
is balanced and includes the
match for several state and
federal grants. Staff proposed
$100,000 for legal expenses
in the coming year, a signifi-
cant drop from past budgets.
But Hunsinger claimed the
Port would need much more,
saying the Port has potential
Fulton also called for the
budget committee to eliminate
any revenue from the cost-
share staff has proposed to
charge tenants being serviced
by the Pier 3 stormwater treat-
ment project once it becomes
operational. Fulton, who along
with Hunsinger has opposed
the plan, claims there is no
basis for charging tenants.
Port Executive Director
Jim Knight said that although
nobody likes the additional
cost, there are no tenants in the
area affected by the stormwa-
ter denying their responsibil-
ity to help pay for stormwater
treatment. “Why would they
not pay, unless there are com-
missioners encouraging them
not to pay?” he asked.
In other news:
• Lee announced his resig-
nation from the budget com-
mittee. He took over earlier
this year as chairman for John
Lansing, who resigned after
Fulton called him a stooge of
the staff. Lee said he’s disap-
pointed in the Port Commis-
sion’s lack of oversight on lim-
iting staffing costs, and said
the budget committee’s role is
not just to rubber stamp staff’s
budget.
• Daly announced her res-
ignation, as well, saying the
next Port Commission should
choose the next budget com-
mittee, adding her name would
be back in the running.
