Carlton Urban Renewal Agency

Purpose:

In June 2009, the Carlton City Council adopted Ordinance No. 682 approving the Carlton Urban Renewal Plan for an urban renewal area within the boundaries of the City of Carlton. Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) Chapter 457 delineates the legislative authority under which urban renewal agencies are permitted to operate in Oregon.

Generally, the urban renewal plan identifies the goals, objectives, and projects to eliminate blight and deteriorated conditions within the City of Carlton Urban Renewal Area through the use of tax increment financing. This method of financing allows the property taxes resulting from the growth in property value within the UR Area to be used for financing improvement projects within the area.
