If an urban renewal agency requests a permanent increase in the amount of frozen value in the certification filed by the assessor under ORS 457.430 (Certification of assessed value of property in urban renewal area), as provided in 457.455 (Limiting collections)(2), the agency must notify the assessor of the new frozen value by completing the portion of the Form UR-50 provided for that purpose, stating the plan name and the new frozen value amount.

If Portland Public School District wishes to exclude from urban renewal division of tax for the current fiscal year that portion of its permanent tax rate limitation by which that limitation was increased upon retirement of the district’s gap bonds, the district must notify the assessors of each county in which division of tax is calculated using the district’s permanent rate. This notification must be submitted to the assessors with Department of Revenue Form ED-50 Notice to Assessor and show both the tax rate to be excluded from division of tax and the tax rate under the district’s permanent rate limitation that the district wishes to impose for district operations. The maximum rate that can be excluded from division of tax is $0.5038 per $1,000 of assessed value.
