RESOLUTION NO. 91 -039 0106 1150
WHEREAS, Deschutes County is Oregon's fastest - growing county
and is experiencing rapidly- expanding road needs; and
WHEREAS, Deschutes County projects large reductions in road
revenues due to cuts in forest receipts and no additional scheduled
increase in the State's gas tax; and
WHEREAS, Deschutes County projects that that decrease in
future revenues will require the Board of County Commissioners to
withdraw entirely from modernization, reconstruction, and new
construction projects and target all available revenues for
preservation and maintenance of existing roads; and
WHEREAS, Deschutes County will not be able to meet the county
road needs of the region without new road revenues; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF
DESCHUTES COUNTY, OREGON, as follows:
Section 1. That the Board of County Commissioners of
Deschutes County, Oregon, strongly supports House Bill 3559, urges
the House Revenue and School Finance Committee to send HB 3559 to
the floor of the House with a "do pass" recommendation, and urges
passage of House Bill 3559 by the Oregon House of Representatives.
