Th e cost of repairing the bridge was set at approximately $1 million with half of that amount designated in engi- neering fees. However, the city has said it could ab- Oregon’s constitution lim- its the increase in MAV of each property to 3 percent per year, unless there have been changes made to the property, such as new con- struction or additions, new partitions or subdivisions, removal from special as- sessment or exemption pro- grams, or changes in zoning and use of the property. Th ere are over 179,000 property tax accounts in Lane County consisting of: 54.4 percent Residential/ Tract; 16.6 percent Exempt; 9.8 percent Commercial; 5.9 percent Industrial; 4.2 per- cent Farm/ Forest; 4.6 per- cent Multi-Family; and 4.5 percent Business Personal Property, Utilities and Oth- er.

Taxpayers have the right to appeal to the Board of Prop- erty Tax Appeals through the Deeds and Records Di- vision of the County Clerk’s Offi ce.

Th is is based on the Jan. 1, 2017 RMV compared to 2017 sale prices which showed an overall median RMV in- crease of 9.7 percent for a typical house value. Market value changes for individual properties will vary each year due to many factors including the gener- al real estate market, prop- erty location and changes made to the property such as new additions, remodels, or demolition. Voters in the past year have approved changes to the tax levies and bond rates which are then applied to a property’s Assessed Value (AV).
