STATE MEASURES
REFERRED TO THE PEOPLE BY THE
LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY
49 AMENDS CONSTITUTION: RE-
STRICTS INMATE LAWSUITS; AL-
LOWS INTERSTATE SHIPMENT OF
PRISON MADE PRODUCTS.
RESULT OF "YES" VOTE: A
O YES "yes" vote restricts inmate law-
suits about work assignments,
allows interstate shipment of
prison made products.
RESULT OF "NO" VOTE: A "no"
vote means inmate lawsuits are
O NO possible and prison made prod-
ucts will not be shipped in in-
terstate commerce.
SUMMARY: This measure modifies current pro-
visions in the Oregon Constitution establishing
requirements for work programs for state prison
inmates. The changes contained in the measure:
(1) make it clear that inmates have no right to a
job or to participate in work, on-the-job training
or educational programs; (2) provide that the
restrictions on uses of compensation earned by
state prison inmates for work they perform are
subject to requirements of federal law in order
to allow corrections officials to continue operat-
ing federally certified prison industries; and (3)
modify the definition of "full-time" to include time
spent on security measures and transportation
of inmates while inmates are participating in work
ESTIMATE OF FINANCIAL IMPACT: The measure
will allow the Department of Corrections to con-
tinue interstate sales of garments and furniture,
which generated an estimated $549,000 in gross
revenue in fiscal year 1995-1996.
Revenues as a result of this measure may be a
funding source for the development and mainte-
nance of the Prison Reform and Inmate Work Act
of 1994, and may reduce the costs of incarcerat-
ing inmates.
WARNING
Any person who, by use of force or
other means, unduly influences an
elector to vote in any particular man-
ner or to refrain from voting, is subject,
upon conviction, to imprisonment or to
a fine, or both.
STATE MEASURES (CONT)
50 AMENDS CONSTITUTION: LIMITS
ASSESSED VALUE OF PROPERTY
FOR TAX PURPOSES; LIMITS
PROPERTY TAX RATES
O YES RESULT OF "YES" VOTE: A "yes"
vote adopts amendment limiting
property taxes through restric-
tions on assessed value of prop-
erty and property tax rates.
RESULT OF "NO" VOTE: A "no"
O NO vote rejects amendment and
retains existing constitutional
provisions.
SUMMARY: This measure changes current pro-
visions relating to property taxation. The mea-
sure establishes the maximum assessed value
of property in this state for the 1997-1998 tax
year as 90 percent of the property's real market
value in the 1995-1996 tax year and then limits
any increase in maximum assessed value for tax
years following 1997-1998 to three percent per
year. For the 1997-1998 tax year, the measure
generally reduces the total of all taxing district
levies in the state by 17 percent. This reduction
will reflect Measure 47 cuts by basing the cuts
on the lesser of the 1995-1996 tax minus 10
percent or the 1994-1995 tax, adjusted for voter -
approved levies. For subsequent tax years, the
measure permanently fixes the tax rates of each
taxing district, based on each district's 1997-1998
levy. The measure permits assessed values to be
adjusted for new property or property improve-
ments and certain other events, but limits the
amount of the adjustment. The measure permits
certain local option taxes, if approved by voters.
The measure retains the existing total property tax
rate for all property taxes, including local option
taxes but excluding taxes for bonds, at $5 per
$1,000 of value for schools and $10 per $1,000 of
value for nonschool government. The measure re-
peals obsolete constitutional provisions.
ESTIMATE OF FINANCIAL IMPACT. This measure
replaces Measure 47, which was approved by
voters last November.
This measure reduces property tax revenues of
local governments by $361 million in the 1997-
1998 fiscal year and $443 million in the 1998-
1999 fiscal year compared to what would have
been collected under Measure 5.
duce property tax revenue by as much as $458
million in 1997-1998 and $548 million in 1998-
1999. However, the reduction could be as little as
$270 million per year based on a recent Attorney
General's opinion and depending on how the courts
and the legislature further interpret Measure 47.
This measure is expected to reduce county costs
of administering the property tax system by $5.1
million per year after the measure is fully imple-
mented.
This measure could reduce state income tax re-
ceipts by as much as $2.3 million per year by
allowing higher property tax deductions.
DESCHUTES COUNTY
9-50 SHERIFF ONE-YEAR
SPLIT OPERATING LEVY.
QUESTION: Shall Deschutes County levy

Fstim`ated-taz tate TM-cErtts7�usa-n"OT-
lars real market value in rest of Deschutes County.
This one-year split levy will levy $3,146,400

eas fund local patrol services. $3,753,600 will

levy will be an additional tax under section 11 g,
Article Xl, Oregon Constitution. The category of this
levy is other governmental purposes to be used
