Please watch out for children as they go to and from school starting Sept. 2 Page 23 Notice is hereby given on Au- gust 4, 2008, that a measure election will be held in Columbia County, Oregon on November 4, 2008. The following shall be the bal- lot title of the measure to be sub- mitted to the district’s voters on this date: November 4, 2008. Caption: 5-192 Renewal of 9- 1-1 Emergency Communications Operating Levy. Question: Shall the five-year Columbia 9-1-1 operating levy be renewed in FY 2009-10, at 29 cents per $1,000 assessed val- ue? Summary: The Operating Levy for the Columbia 9-1-1 Communications District was ap- proved by voters in 1998, and is due for renewal every five years. The renewal for the five-year pe- riod beginning in FY 2009-10 will be at the same rate as approved in 2004, and at a slightly reduced rate from the rate approved in 1998. The five-year Operating Fund supports all ongoing functions of the 9-1-1 call center, such as maintaining emergency commu- nications service for all communi- ties and unincorporated areas throughout the county; 24-hour staffing and training; coordination and dispatching for 16 public safety agencies in Columbia County, including all fire, emer- gency medical and police in each community, and related support services for State Police and State Forestry Department. The renewed Operating Levy would be at a rate of 29 cents per $1,000 of assessed property val- ue. For a home assessed at a value of $200,000 the annual cost would be $58 per year. Over the five-year period, ann estimat- ed total $6,122,760 will be raised; $1,145.541 in the first year; $1,183,908 in the second year; $1,223,397 in the third year; $1,264,041 in the fourth year and $1,305,873 in the fifth year.
