Tax Reduction Moves in Oregon Across Counties
The Tax Reduction campaign spreads through Oregon with seven counties trimming school taxes by about 12 percent on average and Multnomah cutting 24 percent of valuation. General county and road levies fall by 37625 dollars across 23 counties. Portland budgets see about half a million cut, while the legislature reduces state fixed charges by over two million dollars. A political fight over the O. C. Land Grant sale at 2.50 per acre risks the land and back taxes totaling about two million dollars if lands pass to the federal government.
