The exemption provided by ORS 307.600 (Legislative findings) to 307.637 (Deadlines for actions required for exemption) is in addition to any other exemption provided by law. However, nothing in ORS 307.600 (Legislative findings) to 307.637 (Deadlines for actions required for exemption) may be construed to exempt any property beyond 100 percent of its real market value.(b)
If property is located within a core area and within a light rail station area or a transit oriented area, or both, and application for exemption under more than one program is made, only the exemption for which application is first made and approved may be granted. If property is granted exemption under ORS 307.600 (Legislative findings) to 307.637 (Deadlines for actions required for exemption) pursuant to an ordinance or resolution adopted by a city, the property may not be granted exemption pursuant to an ordinance or resolution adopted by a county. If property is granted exemption under ORS 307.600 (Legislative findings) to 307.637 (Deadlines for actions required for exemption) pursuant to an ordinance or resolution adopted by a county, the property may not be granted exemption pursuant to an ordinance or resolution adopted by a city. Property may be granted exemption under ORS 307.600 (Legislative findings) to 307.637 (Deadlines for actions required for exemption) only once. [Formerly 307.630; 2011 c.266 §2]
