In these cases, parents typically provide half the down payment for would-be homeowners who otherwise would not have sav ings and incomes large enough to qualify for a mortgage. Parents tend to m ake a gift rather than a loan in such cases because too much debt can count against prospective borrowers when qualifying for a loan. As long as the buyers ante up a fourth of the down payment, lenders don’t care if family generosity makes up the difference. However, they WILL ask for a gift letter, a simple document acknowledg ing that parents do not expect repayment. On the other hand, if there is an actual LOAN being made from parent to child, it should be secured with the same sort of paperwork that a bank would use. That way, the interest re paid will be fully deductible as a home acquisition loan. * Properly listings are available at www.sykesrealestate.net 188 W. Willow • P.O.

OWC Public Rules hearing to be held at OSU Mor row County Extension Office via PolyCom On May 6, 2008, the Oregon Wheat Industry Task Force (TF) presented their long awaited findings to a jo in t m eeting o f the OWGL and OWC. The driv ing force for the creation of the Task Force was the need for our industry to respond to the scheduled sunset of our enabling legislation. The Task Force rec ommended these changes for co nsideration by the wheat growers o f Oregon: -Coordination o f In dustry Entities - common management, common loca tion and joint meetings when appropriate and beneficial. -Governance - Two additional commissioners be appointed from industries related to wheat produc tion. -Inclusion of Oregon Grains Commission - Invite OGC to be a partner with OWGL and OWC. -Funding - Base the grower assessment on the value o f gross sales rather than the number o f bush els. -Proposed Legisla tive Language - Provide leg islature with language that incorporates the strengths from current and previous statutory language, allowing appropriate oversight while giving the grain industry the authorities it needs to direct and support the industry. The most time sen sitive issue am ong these recommendations was the need for a better funding mechanism to support the paramount needs recognized long ago by the leaders within our industry, namely; m arketing d ev elo p m en t, production research, and grower and public educa tion. Lack o f funding has forced the OWC to consider the elimination o f core pro grams and prevented con sideration o f new innovative proposals. Over the years infla tion has forced the OWC to seek authority from the wheat producers to increase the original $.005/bu. as sessment three times; $.01/ bu. thru 1980, $.02/bu. thru 1991, and $.03/bu. to pres ent. The current period rep resents an eighteen year pe riod in which producers have placed many wheat acres in CRP or have switched to more financially productive crops. P r o d u c ti o n a n d assessm ent receipts have plummeted as production costs have risen during this eighteen year period, as every wheat grower knows. If your wheat organizations are to be effective, we need to increase our investment in the core areas o f our in dustry, market development, production research, and grower and public educa tion. These factors drove the Task Force recommen dation for an assessm ent change to a percent o f net receipts. The OWC in con sultation with the OWGL, voted to proceed with a 3A of 1% of final settlement levy. The OWC also voted to al low full grower assessment refunds to demonstrate ac countability and to encour age grower input on OWC programs. The Oregon Wheat Commission members want grower input on these pro posed changes. This is your opportunity to be heard. The Public R ules H earing w ill be held at the Gilliam County Grain Quality Lab on June 30 at 9 a.m. Video conferencing via Polycom will be available at Morrow County Extension Service, 54173 Hwy 74 in Heppner. Watch for future announcements or contact the OWGL or OWC offices for details. Copies o f the Task Force recom m enda tions, proposed adm inis trative rules and proposed leg islativ e language are available at both the OWGL and OWC offices. 4-H Leaders Council awards scholarships The Morrow County 4-H Leaders Council re cently awarded two scholar ships to area youth involved in 4-H.
