The confusion may lie in the initial establishment of the ordinance (I know it confused me!). The local government must develop and adopt an ordinance authorizing the EID. This is a two-step process. The first is a reading of the ordinance. The second step is to give a time period for remonstrance (property owners say they <strong><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>don't </span></strong>support the EID) before the adoption of the ordinance. If 33% or more "remonstrate" then the ordinance doesn't pass. With a voluntary system, property owners that formally opposed the EID are not obligated to pay the assessment. With the involuntary, if the ordinance passes, they are required to pay.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> <o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>Sheri Stuart, Coordinator<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>Oregon Main Street<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>725 Summer St., Suite C<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>Salem, OR 97301<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>503.986.0679<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'><a href="http://www.oregonheritage.org/">www.oregonheritage.org</a><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>**CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE**<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>This e-mail may contain information that is privileged or confidential.
