The use of city limits information was identified as a need for general planning purposes within ODOT. It was determined that this would be a frequently used data set that needed to be both spatially referenced and attributed in a GIS base layer. The decision was made to create a statewide coverage of the boundary outlining the city limits for each of the 242 incorporated cities. An incorporated city may have multiple areas that are not contiguous. Each such area is represented separately with its own polygon. The area of the city limits will be calculated from the polygons created. |

For assessment and taxation purposes, the boundary change process has two key dates. One is the effective date of the boundary change. The other is the filing deadline with the Department of Revenue. While both of these dates relate to boundary changes, they operate independently. The two key dates are March 31 and July 1. These dates help determine the property affected by a boundary change. The district must file its boundary change documents in final approved form to the Department of Revenue Cadastral Information Systems Unit by March 31 and obtain a notice of approval. In order for a district to extend its tax rate to an annexed territory, the district's annexation must be effective on or before July 1. ORS 308.225 instructs the assessor to disregard any changes or proposed changes to the boundary lines of taxing districts for assessment and taxation purposes in the ensuing fiscal year if the change is not filed in final approved form by March 31. The March 31 date and the approval by the Department of Revenue only relates to the boundary change for assessment and taxation purposes. It does not effect or relate to filings for any other purpose. ORS 308.225 also details the level of description for the boundary change. |
