Net proceeds of lottery bonds issued under this section must be transferred to the department for deposit in the ODAS Economic Development Distributions Fund established under ORS 461.553 (ODAS Economic Development Distributions Fund) for distribution to the Port of Cascade Locks to construct buildings and upgrade and expand infrastructure in the Port of Cascade Locks Business Park.(3)
The Legislative Assembly finds that the use of lottery bond proceeds will create jobs, further economic development, finance public education or restore and protect parks, beaches, watersheds and native fish and wildlife, and is authorized based on the finding that assisting in the establishment and expansion of businesses in Oregon and in the construction, improvement and expansion of infrastructure that comprises the physical foundation for industrial and commercial activities provide the basic framework for continued and expanded economic opportunities and quality communities.
