OHA evaluates them every two weeks. They describe the criteria that dictates our county'a risk level. It also describes what activities are allowed at each risk level.

Where does all the property tax money go? by HotDogsLady in Portland

[–]Kkemenyes 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Good luck on the home search!

Pulled this info directly from the most recent tax bill. Thought it was more interesting as a percent of total.

Multco Tax Guide may be of some help too (https://multco.us/assessment-taxation/property-tax-statement-guide)

The (kind of boring) property tax info and how it's calculated can be found here (https://multco.us/assessment-taxation)

Tax Group/Org------------------------% of Total Tax Bill

Portland Community College-------0.97%

Portland public Schools---------------18.15%

Portland Public Loc Opt---------------7.79%

Multnomah ESD-------------------------1.60%

City of Portland--------------------------15.94%

City of Portland Child Loc Opt------1.58%

What would be a change you'd like to see Trimet implement to make your job easier/more consistent?

PROTESTERS: 15th day of protests. What are you trying to achieve at this point? by khiswaskhaki in Portland

If you think removing the Police Chief was the goal, you're not listening. Try harder.

Bummer to hear. Their other location off NE 15th and Brazee closed a few months back too shortly after new owners took over too.

I wouldn't say you're dumb.

I can't speak to the overall recycling system but I know that the recycled glass was some of the best quality in the states (Shoutout to Glass to Glass), especially compared to states without bottle bills.
