o f the lone School District,
Morrow County, Oregon. The
election shall be conducted by
mail pursuant to ORS 254.465.

ers thereof:

TION BONDS TO EXPAND,

QUESTION:
Shall lone School District

Morrow County, Oregon
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIV­
EN that on Tuesday, November
4, 2008, an election will be
held within the boundaries of
the Morrow County Health
District, Morrow County, Or­
egon. The election shall be
conducted by mail pursuant to
ORS 254.465. The following
question will be submitted to
the qualified voters thereof:
CAPTION:
M ORROW COUNTY

YEAR LOCAL OPTION OP­
ERATIONS TAX
QUESTION:
Shall Morrow County Health
District continue $0.39 per
$ 1,000 assessed property value
for continued operations for
five years beginning in 2009?
This measure may cause prop­
erty taxes to increase more
than three percent.
SUMMARY:
The Morrow' County Health
District will use the tax rev­
enue from this measure to
help maintain and improve the
present level of services. The
levy is the same rate approved
by the voters for fiscal years
2005-2006 through 2007-
2008. Increased unfunded
care, increased supply and la­
bor costs, and the need for full­
time EMS/Ambulance staff
indicate that the permanent rate
will be insufficient to continue
to fund District operations at
current levels. The estimated
tax cost for this measure is an
ESTIMATE ONLY based on
the best information available
from the county assessor at the
time of estimate. The proposed
rate will raise approximately
$357,800 per year in fiscal
years 2009-2010 thru 2012-
'l013 and $381,200 in fiscal
year 2013-2014, for a total of
$1,812,400.
Notice is hereby given that
a ballot title for a measure re­
ferred by the District has been
filed with the Elections Office
of Morrow County, Oregon
on August 28, 2008. The bal­

An elector may file a petition
for review of this ballot title
in the Morrow County Circuit
Court no later than 5:00 p.m.,

FLOOD INSURANCE
Probably the least under­
stood of common homeown­
ers insurance exclusions is
flooding. Whenever a spring
storm sends some creek over
its banks, complaints from
nearby homeowners are almost
sure to follow. They usually
are irate, not so much because
they were flooded, but because
they suddenly learned that their
homeowners poicy would not
pay a cent toward cleaning up
the mess and restoring their
watered-down property.
• Modernize classrooms
w ith new technology.
• Pay fees associated with
issuing and administering the
bonds.
This measure would cost
property owners an estimated
average of $2.82 cents per
$1,000 of assessed value per
year.
The Bonds would mature in
16 years or less from issuance
date and may be issued in one
or more series.
Notice is hereby given that
a ballot title for a measure re­
ferred by the District has been
filed with the Elections Office
of Morrow County, Oregon
on August 28, 2008. The bal­
lot title caption is GENERAL
OBLIGATION BONDS TO
EXPAND, UPGRADE AND
REPAIR SCHOOLS. An
elector may file a petition for
review of this ballot title in
the Morrow County Circuit
Court no later than 5:00 p.m.,
September 9,2008 (7 business

Affidavit
Private insurers generally
don't insure homes and other
fixed properties against flood­
ing and mud slides because
that kind of coverge doesn’t
lend itself adequately to the
risk-sharing principal. For
those living in flood-prone ar­
eas, the cost of insuring would
be prohibitive.
To fill the gap, the federal
government offers flood in­
surance to property owners in
flood-prone areas - provided
land-use requirements are
met.

grams and public education

approximately $68,000 annu­
ally over 4 years for a total
o f $272,000. This estimate
is based on the best available
information from the M or­
row County Assessor, and is
an ESTIMATE ONLY. This
levy would cost the owner of
a home with an assessed value
of $100,000, $10.00 per year.

The Oregon Depart­
ment o f Transportation’s
contractor, Weaver Con­
struction, w ill be repair­
ing two bridges along U.S.
Highway 730 west o f Irrigon
over the next few months.
The UPRR Clarke
and USRS Canal bridges
are located one mile east of
the junction o f Interstate 84
at mile point 168.8 and will
require lane restrictions dur­
ing the repair work, plus a
half-dozen days o f highway
closure.
Beginning Septem­
ber 3 motorists can expect
single lane travel at the work
site with traffic controlled
by temporary traffic signals.
Beginning September 19,
U.S. Highway 730 will be
closed at the work site for
three days while the contrac­
tor places a new deck on one
o f the existing structures.
A similar three-day high­
way closure is tentatively
planned for October 20,
21 and 22 for bridge deck
replacement on the second
structure.
During the bridge
closure times there will be
no local detour. Through
traffic will be routed around
the closure at the work site
via Interstate 84 and Inter­
state 82. Detour signs will
be posted.
The project is sched­
uled to be completed by
November 15, 2008.
